As of January 1, 2026, Carlyle Credit Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) issued and sold 6,511,297 shares of the Company’s Class I common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class I Common Stock”), with the final number of shares being determined on January 28, 2026 for aggregate consideration of $122.5 million. Following this issuance of the Class I Common Stock, the total number of shares of Class I Common Stock outstanding will be 100,324,152. Effective December 23, 2025, all of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock were renamed and redesignated as Class I Common Stock.

The issuance and sale of the Class I Common Stock is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Regulation D and Regulation S thereunder.

The issuance of Class I Common Stock is being made pursuant to subscription agreements (“Subscription Agreement”) entered into by the Company and its investors. Under the terms of the Subscription Agreement, investors fund their purchase of shares of Common Stock five business days prior to the first day of the calendar month in which the subscription is to be effective (unless waived by the Company’s investment adviser). The net asset value per share applicable to the purchase of shares at a given effective date will be available generally within 20 business days after the effective date of the subscription; at that time, the number of shares based on that net asset value and the investor purchase will be determined and the shares will be issued as of the effective date of the purchase.

Item 7.01 – Regulation FD Disclosure.

On January 28, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.16 per share of Class I Common Stock, which is payable on or about February 26, 2026 to holders of Class I Common Stock of record as of January 30, 2026. These dividends will be paid in cash and may then be reinvested in shares of Class I Common Stock at the election of the common stockholder pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. As of January 28, 2026, the Company has issued and outstanding only shares of Class I Common Stock.

Item 8.01 – Other Events.
