BlackRock TCP Capital Executive Changes, Philip Tseng Resigns
BlackRock TCP Capital disclosed late Friday that on August 31, Philip Tseng resigned from his positions as a Director, Chair of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, and Co-Chief Investment Officer of BlackRock TCP Capital, BlackRock Private Credit Fund and BlackRock Direct Lending to pursue other business opportunities outside of BlackRock (BLK). "Tseng's resignation is not the result of any disagreement with the Company, BDEBT, BDLC, or with BlackRock, Inc. Mr. Tseng will continue to serve as an employee of BlackRock, Inc. until October 1, 2026 in order to ensure the smooth transition of his responsibilities," the company added. On September 2, the board appointed Jason Mehring as a Director, Chair of the Board, and CEO of the company, with the appointments each effective as of September 2. Mehring is a Managing Director of BlackRock. Effective as of September 2, the board appointed Dan Worrell to the position of President of the company, moving from his previous position of Co-Chief Investment Officer.
Company Reports Q1 NAV Decline to $6.72 per Share
The company said, "In the first quarter of 2026, the Company executed against its strategic priorities: improving credit quality, further repositioning the investment portfolio, and strengthening the balance sheet. Non-accruals declined to 2.8% of the portfolio at fair value, reflecting the completion of two restructurings and one asset sale. Net leverage declined to 1.29x at quarter end, driven primarily by exits, partial paydowns, and proactive balance-sheet management. These achievements were partially offset by $35 million of net portfolio markdowns during the quarter, which contributed to a 4.9% decline in NAV to $6.72 per share. The Company remains focused on disciplined execution as it continues to reposition the portfolio."
Company Reports Q4 NAV per Share at $7.07
Reports Q4 NAV per share $7.07. The company said, "In the fourth quarter, issuer-specific developments drove a 19% decline in NAV, with six portfolio companies accounting for roughly two-thirds of the decrease. Viewed more broadly, approximately 91% of the NAV reduction was tied to investments that were underwritten in 2021 or earlier. Certain of these businesses benefited from high levels of pandemic-era demand but have since seen results soften. In addition, because these investments were originated in a low base-rate environment, several have struggled to adapt to a period of sustained higher interest rates."
