The company announced a 5.7% increase in its quarterly distribution to $0.37 per share, alongside a record total investment income of $12.5 million for the quarter.

Key financial metrics for the quarter included a net investment income of $4.6 million, or $0.40 per share, which was a substantial increase from the previous quarter.
