Aren LeeKong, CSL’s Chief Executive Officer said, “In the face of broader market volatility, we are pleased to see our disciplined and intentional approach to credit underwriting and portfolio management produce another quarter of solid income generation accompanied by an increase in NAV. While market demand for private credit remains high, we have not wavered in our focus on differentiated direct lending opportunities, sourced using the breadth and scope of the OneCarlyle platform. Equally as important, we have maintained our conservative approach to risk management, continuing to run a well-diversified portfolio at the low-end of our target leverage range.”
Net investment income for the third quarter of 2023 was $0.52 per common share, and net asset value per common share increased by 0.8% for the third quarter to $16.86 from $16.73 as of June 30, 2023. The total fair value of our investments was $1.9 billion as of September 30, 2023.
Dividends
On November 2, 2023, the Board of Directors declared a base quarterly common dividend of $0.37 plus a supplemental common dividend of $0.07, which are payable on January 18, 2024 to common stockholders of record on December 29, 2023.
On September 19, 2023, the Company declared and paid a cash dividend on the Preferred Stock for the period from July 1, 2023 to September 30, 2023 in the amount of $0.438 per Preferred Share to the holder of record on September 29, 2023.

• As of September 30, 2023, three borrowers were on non-accrual status, representing 2.0% of total investments at fair value and 3.2% at amortized cost. Risk Rating Distribution RATING DEFINITION 1 Borrower is operating above expectations, and the trends and risk factors are generally favorable. 2 Borrower is operating generally as expected or at an acceptable level of performance. The level of risk to our initial cost basis is similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination. This is the initial risk rating assigned to all new borrowers. 3 Borrower is operating below expectations and level of risk to our cost basis has increased since the time of origination. The borrower may be out of compliance with debt covenants. Payments are generally current although there may be higher risk of payment default. 4 Borrower is operating materially below expectations and the loan’s risk has increased materially since origination. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments may be past due, but generally not by more than 120 days. It is anticipated that we may not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a loss of our initial cost basis upon exit. 5 Borrower is operating substantially below expectations and the loan’s risk has increased substantially since origination. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. It is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis upon exit.
