The filing also reported the fund’s net asset value (NAV) per share as of February 28, 2026: $22.64 for Class I, D, S and T shares, determined on March 25, 2026 under the fund’s valuation policy.

Key Details

  • Distribution per share: Gross $0.1600; net by class — Class I $0.1600, Class D $0.1553 (after $0.0047 fee), Class S and T $0.1440 (after $0.0160 fee).
  • Record/pay dates: Record date March 27, 2026; payable on or about April 28, 2026; reinvestment option available.
  • NAV and portfolio (as of Feb 28, 2026): NAV per share $22.64; aggregate NAV ≈ $4.7 billion; investment portfolio fair value ≈ $7.3 billion; outstanding debt ≈ $2.9 billion; net debt-to-equity leverage ≈ 0.57x.
  • Offering status: Continuous public offering up to $5.0 billion. Sales to date — Private Offering: 21,056,002 Class I shares for $504.6M. Offering totals to date: Class I 141,545,282 ($3,310.6M); Class D 402,799 ($9.3M); Class S 59,716,738 ($1,401.4M); Class T 176,682 ($4.1M).

Why It Matters

  • The declared distribution provides near-term income for shareholders and the reinvestment option allows for share accumulation.
  • The NAV decline from $22.87 (Jan 31) to $22.64 (Feb 28) shows a modest monthly decrease in per‑share value; investors should watch NAV trends alongside portfolio value and leverage.
  • The fund’s sizable portfolio value, outstanding debt and 0.57x net debt-to-equity leverage give context on risk and capital structure, while the ongoing $5.0B offering indicates continued share issuance and capital raising activity.
