Additionally, we have continued to successfully harvest realized gains with the exit of one equity investment this quarter, increasing our undistributable taxable income balance to $1.13 per share. During the quarter, the Board of Directors again declared a regular monthly dividend of $0.1934 for each of October, November and December 2025 and a quarterly supplemental dividend of $0.06 to be paid in December 2025. On the capitalization front, we successfully raised $350 million at 5.950% in our inaugural index-eligible unsecured bond transaction. Subsequent to quarter end, we used a portion of the proceeds from this issuance to redeem both our October 2026 Notes and August 2028 Notes. Importantly, there was no make-whole premium due on either of our note redemptions. We also continued to efficiently raise equity capital during the quarter, raising approximately $40 million through our Equity ATM Program. Additionally, SBIC II received an initial leverage commitment from the SBA for $40 million.”
