OFS Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: OFS) (“OFS Capital,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024.

SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

• Net investment income decreased to $0.26 per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 from $0.42 per common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
• Net gain on investments of $0.51 per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, primarily comprised of net unrealized appreciation of $0.83 per common share, partially offset by net realized losses of $0.32 per common share.
• Net asset value per common share increased to $11.51 as of June 30, 2024 from $11.08 as of March 31, 2024.
• As of June 30, 2024, based on fair value, 92% of our loan portfolio consisted of floating rate loans and approximately 100% of our loan portfolio consisted of first lien and second lien loans.
• For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the investment portfolio’s weighted-average performing income yield increased to 13.4% from 13.0% during the prior quarter, primarily due to the acceleration of deferred fees from loan repayments.
• No new loans were placed on non-accrual status during the second quarter. The number of issuers with loans on non-accrual status decreased by one from the prior quarter.

OTHER RECENT EVENTS
