What drove it
- Investment income modestly increased to $338 million from $326 million, primarily driven by net portfolio growth and higher dividend income related to a repayment.

Analysis
OTF reported stable second-quarter operating results alongside expanding portfolio assets. GAAP net investment income per share was $0.30, below $0.37 in the prior quarter and $0.34 in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted net investment income per share was $0.30, compared with $0.29 in the prior quarter and $0.36 in the prior-year quarter. Investment income increased to $338 million from $326 million in the first quarter, driven primarily by net portfolio growth and higher dividend income related to a repayment.
Expenses were the principal quarter-over-quarter pressure point. Total operating expenses increased to $199 million from $153 million, principally because the prior quarter included a capital gains incentive fee reversal and because average daily borrowings increased interest expense. The absence of the capital gains incentive fee benefit also explains the difference between GAAP and adjusted comparisons. GAAP net realized and unrealized gains were $0.03 per share, following a $(0.84) loss per share in the prior quarter, while net asset value per share was essentially stable sequentially at $16.48 compared with $16.49.
Portfolio assets grew to $14,680,538 at fair value from $14,068,239 at March 31, 2026. The portfolio remained concentrated in first-lien senior secured investments, which were $11,444,661 and represented 77.8 % of total investments. Credit indicators remained low at fair value, with non-accrual investments at 0.1 % of the portfolio, unchanged from the prior quarter. However, non-accruals at cost were 0.6%, compared with 0.3% as of March 31, 2026. The weighted average total yield of accruing debt and income-producing securities at fair value increased to 9.6 % from 9.5 %.
Investment activity moderated sequentially. New investment commitments were $0.9 billion across 6 new and 7 existing portfolio companies, compared with $1.7 billion across 14 new and 12 existing companies in the first quarter. The principal amount of new investments funded was $0.6 billion, while sales and repayments were $0.2 billion. New debt investment commitments were entirely floating rate, and their weighted average spread over the applicable base rate was 5.3 %, although their weighted average interest rate was 9.0 %, compared with 9.8 % in the prior-year period.
Capital allocation included $55 million of common-stock repurchases and $0.40 per share of dividends, including a $0.35 base dividend and a $0.05 special dividend. Funding capacity expanded through an amended and extended revolving credit facility, $500 million of unsecured debt issuance, and $150 million of secured financing. At quarter-end, OTF had $214 million in cash, $1.8 billion of undrawn credit capacity, and $7.3 billion in total principal debt outstanding. Net debt-to-equity increased to 0.93x from 0.85x in the prior quarter, while the Company said it had more than $2 billion of available liquidity and that leverage was at the low end of its target range. The release provided no operating financial guidance.
Management, verbatim
OTF’s second quarter stability reflected the strong credit quality of our portfolio, with non-accruals among the lowest in the industry and borrower fundamentals remaining strong.
Craig W. Packer, Chief Executive Officer
Despite a challenging market backdrop, OTF enhanced the flexibility and diversification of its capital structure through an unsecured bond issuance, new secured financing, and the extension of its revolving credit facility.
Craig W. Packer, Chief Executive Officer
Today's market environment is increasingly supportive of ROE expansion over time, as spreads have widened and the rate outlook has improved.
