Portfolio company operating trends remained stable, and credit performance continued to track in line with expectations," said Craig Packer, Chief Executive Officer. "As market conditions continue to stabilize and investment opportunities become increasingly attractive, we believe OBDC is well positioned to deploy capital selectively. With leverage at a two-year low and a strong liquidity profile, we have meaningful flexibility to capitalize on compelling investment opportunities as we focus on delivering attractive risk-adjusted returns for shareholders."
OBDC Net Asset Value Per Share Drops to $14.41
Net asset value per share of $14.41, as compared with $14.81 as of December 31, 2025, primarily reflecting the impact of credit spread widening on the portfolio. "OBDC's credit performance remains strong, with no new non-accruals and steady borrower performance," said Craig Packer, Chief Executive Officer. "While the quarter reflected a more challenging earnings environment driven by lower base rates and tighter spreads, our portfolio is delivering solid performance, and our balance sheet is strong. With healthy repayments, lower leverage and approximately $4 billion of available liquidity, we have the flexibility to capitalize on an increasingly attractive deployment environment at wider spreads."
