• NAV and offering totals (as of filing): NAV per Class I share $18.04 (July 31, 2026); aggregate NAV ≈ $1.7B. Historical issuance: Initial Private Offering — 60,238,425 shares for $1.2B; New Continuous Offering — 68,300,103 shares for $1.3B; total 128,538,528 shares for $2.5B.
• Subscription mechanics: investors fund purchases five business days before the first day of the calendar month of the subscription (unless waived); NAV per share for the effective date is generally available within 20 business days and shares are issued as of the effective date.

Why It Matters

• The filing shows ongoing capital raising (unregistered share sales) and a continued monthly offering, which affect share count and investor dilution over time. The July 31 NAV ($18.04) and aggregate NAV (~$1.7B) provide a recent valuation snapshot for investors.
• The declared dividend ($0.14/share) is a concrete cash return for shareholders and may increase ongoing reinvestment into the company via the dividend reinvestment plan. The unregistered nature of the share issuance (Reg D/S exemption) is typical for private continuous offerings but means these shares were not registered for public resale.
