Main Street Announces Exit of Portfolio InvestmentJune 24, 2026 7:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) Generates $46.4 Million Realized Gain from Exit of Equity Investment in Centre Technologies Holdings, LLCHOUSTON, June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Main Street Capital Corporation (NYSE: MAIN) ("Main Street") is pleased to announce that it recently exited its debt investments and equity investment in Centre Technologies Holdings, LLC ("Centre" or the "Company") upon the completion of a majority recapitalization with a new financial sponsor. Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Houston, Texas, Centre is a provider of information technology (IT) services, including managed services, cloud solutions, cyber security, IT consulting and business intelligence (BI) services to lower and middle market businesses, often serving as a fully outsourced IT department.  Main Street partnered with Centre's existing owners and senior management team in January 2019 to facilitate a minority recapitalization of the Company and provide growth capital to help facilitate the Company's acquisition growth strategy. Main Street's initial investment consisted of a $2.4 million revolving line of credit, a $12.2 million first lien, senior secured term loan and a $5.8 million direct equity investment. After Main Street's initial investment, Centre completed seven follow-on acquisitions with Main Street funding an additional cumulative $27.7 million under the first lien, senior secured term loan facility and $0.5 million in direct equity investments to support the Company's acquisition strategy and other corporate activities, resulting in Main Street's total debt investments and total equity investments growing to $42.3 million and $6.4 million, respectively.Main Street realized a gain of $46.4 million on the exit of its equity investment in Centre, including a minority equity ownership position in Centre's acquirer that Main Street received as part of the sale proceeds, with this realized value representing an increase of $6.8 million above Main Street's fair market value for this equity investment as of March 31, 2026. Main Street also received total dividends of $2.2 million over the life of its equity investment in the Company. As a result, on a cumulative basis since Main Street's initial investment in January 2019 and taking the realized gain, dividends and fees into consideration, Main Street realized an annual internal rate of return ("IRR") of 40.1% and an 8.8 times money invested ("TMI") return on its equity investment in Centre. On a cumulative basis including both Main Street's debt and equity investments in the Company, Main Street realized an IRR of 23.2% and a 2.4 TMI return.ABOUT MAIN STREET CAPITAL CORPORATION

(23) %The $0.9 million increase in total investment income in the first quarter of 2026 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to (i) a $2.0 million increase in interest income, primarily due to higher average levels of income producing investment portfolio debt investments, partially offset by a decrease in interest rates, primarily resulting from decreases in benchmark index rates on floating rate investment portfolio debt investments, and (ii) a $0.5 million increase in fee income, primarily due to an increase in fee income related to increased investment activity. These increases were partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in dividend income, primarily due to a $1.5 million decrease in dividend income from the Fund's LMM portfolio companies. The $0.9 million increase in total investment income in the first quarter of 2026 is after the impact of a decrease of $0.2 million in certain income considered less consistent or non-recurring, primarily related to decreases of (i) $0.2 million in such dividend income and (ii) $0.2 million in such interest income from accelerated prepayment, repricing and other activity related to certain investment portfolio debt investments, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in such fee income, in each case when compared to the same period in 2025.Total expenses, net of waivers, increased by $0.4 million, or 2.5%, to $16.8 million in the first quarter of 2026 from $16.4 million for the same period in 2025. This increase was principally attributable to (i) a $0.7 million increase in interest expense, (ii) a $0.3 million increase in base management fees and (iii) a $0.1 million increase in incentive fee on income, net of waivers, partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in the ending accrual for the accrued capital gains incentive fee(3) as of March 31, 2026. The increase in interest expense is primarily related to an increase in average borrowings outstanding used to fund a portion of the growth of the Fund's investment portfolio, partially offset by decreased weighted-average interest rates on the Credit Facilities due to decreases in benchmark floating index interest rates and a decrease in the applicable interest rate spread on the SPV Facility resulting from the amendment of the SPV Facility in March 2025 (with the Credit Facilities and the SPV Facility each defined in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below). The increase in base management fees is primarily the result of the Fund's increased average total assets, partially offset by the benefit of the lower base management fee percentage for the full quarter in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the benefit for a partial quarter in the first quarter of 2025 as a result of the Fund's entry into an amended advisory agreement (the "Amended Advisory Agreement") with the Adviser (defined below), effective upon the listing of the Fund's common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on January 29, 2025 (the "MSC Income Listing"). The increase in incentive fee on income, net of waivers, is the result of (a) an increase in the gross calculated incentive fee on income of $1.1 million, partially offset by (b) a $1.0 million voluntary waiver of incentive fee on income by the Adviser. The increase in the gross calculated incentive fee on income is a result of the Amended Advisory Agreement. The reduction in the capital gains incentive fee accrual(3) is due to the net fair value depreciation of the Fund's investments in the first quarter of 2026.The Fund's ratio of total non-interest operating expenses, excluding incentive fees, net of waivers, as a percentage of quarterly average total assets, or the Operating Expenses to Assets Ratio, decreased to 1.8% on an annualized basis for the first quarter of 2026, from 1.9% for the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to the benefit of the lower base management fee percentage in the first quarter of 2026 as discussed above.The $0.5 million increase in NII in the first quarter of 2026 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to an increase in total investment income, partially offset by an increase in total expenses, net of waivers, each as discussed above. NII on a per share basis was $0.35 per share for the first quarter of 2026, consistent with the first quarter of 2025.The $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share, decrease in ANII(1) in the first quarter of 2026 to $15.6 million, or $0.34 per share, from $15.7 million, or $0.35 per share, in the first quarter of 2025 was principally attributable to the same factors noted above for the change in NII, but excluding the impact of the $0.6 million decrease in the capital gains incentive fee accrual.The per share changes in NII and ANII(1) in the first quarter of 2026 from the comparable period of the prior year include the impact of a 3.2% increase in the weighted-average shares outstanding, primarily due to shares issued in connection with the MSC Income Listing and shares issued through the dividend reinvestment plan, partially offset by shares repurchased by the Fund, in each case since the beginning of the comparable period of the prior year. NII and ANII(1) on a per share basis in the first quarter of 2026 each include a decrease of $0.01 per share resulting from a decrease in investment income considered less consistent or non-recurring in nature compared to the first quarter of 2025, as discussed above.The $13.2 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations in the first quarter of 2026 represents a $2.7 million decrease from the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $2.5 million increase in net tax provision on the net fair value change of the portfolio investments resulting from a net tax provision of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to a net tax benefit of $2.4 million in the comparable period of the prior year and (ii) a $0.6 million decrease in the net fair value change of the Fund's portfolio investments resulting from the net impact of net realized gains/losses and net unrealized appreciation/depreciation, with the decrease resulting from a net fair value decrease of $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to a net fair value decrease of $2.3 million in the comparable period of the prior year, partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in NII as discussed above. The $2.9 million net fair value decrease in the first quarter of 2026 was the result of a net realized loss of $0.2 million and net unrealized depreciation (including the reversal of net fair value depreciation recognized in prior periods due to the net realized loss in the quarter) of $2.6 million. The $2.3 million net fair value decrease in the first quarter of 2025 was the result of a net realized loss of $21.1 million, partially offset by net unrealized appreciation of $18.8 million. The $0.2 million net realized loss from investments for the first quarter of 2026 was primarily the result of $3.7 million of realized losses on the full exits of two private loan portfolio investments, partially offset by a $3.1 million realized gain on the full exit of a private loan portfolio investment and a net realized gain on other private loan portfolio investments.The following table provides a summary of the total net unrealized depreciation of $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2026:

(a)The Fund had equity ownership in all of its LMM portfolio companies, and the Fund's average fully diluted equity ownership in those portfolio companies was 8%.

(b)The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates for all debt investments as of March 31, 2026, including amortization of deferred debt origination fees and accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt investments and any debt investments on non-accrual status, and are weighted based upon the principal amount of each applicable debt investment as of March 31, 2026.

(c)The average EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is calculated using a weighted-average for private loan portfolio companies and a simple average for LMM portfolio companies. These calculations exclude certain portfolio companies, including four private loan portfolio companies and three LMM portfolio companies, as EBITDA is not a meaningful valuation metric for the Fund's investments in these portfolio companies, and those portfolio companies whose primary purpose is to own real estate and those portfolio companies whose primary operations have ceased and only residual value remains.The Fund's total investment portfolio at fair value consists of approximately 60% private loan, 37% LMM, 2% middle market and 1% other portfolio investments.The fair value of the Fund's LMM portfolio company equity investments was 204% of the related cost basis of such equity investments, and the Fund's LMM portfolio companies had a median net senior debt (senior interest-bearing debt through the Fund's debt position less cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA ratio of 2.5 to 1.0 and a median total EBITDA to senior interest expense ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. Including all debt that is junior in priority to the Fund's debt position, these median ratios were 2.6 to 1.0 and 2.9 to 1.0, respectively.(5)(6)As of March 31, 2026, the Fund's investment portfolio also included:Middle market portfolio investments in eight portfolio companies, collectively totaling $23.0 million in fair value and $40.3 million in cost basis, which comprised 1.7% and 3.1% of the Fund's investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively; andOther portfolio investments in seven entities, spread across four investment managers, collectively totaling $15.6 million in fair value and $13.4 million in cost basis, which comprised 1.1% and 1.0% of the Fund's investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively.As of March 31, 2026, investments on non-accrual status comprised 1.1% of the total investment portfolio at fair value and 4.2% at cost, and the Fund's total portfolio investments at fair value were 106% of the related cost basis.First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Conference Call / WebcastMSC Income has scheduled a conference call for Friday, May 8, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time to discuss the first quarter 2026 financial results.(7)You may access the conference call by dialing 412-902-0030 at least 10 minutes prior to the start time.

(1)ANII is NII as determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of the capital gains incentive fee(3). MSC Income believes presenting ANII and the related per share amount is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing the Fund's financial performance since the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee is based on realized gains and losses and unrealized fair value appreciation and depreciation, none of which are included in NII. However, ANII is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for NII or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MSC Income's financial performance. A reconciliation of NII in accordance with U.S. GAAP to ANII is detailed in the financial tables included with this press release.

(2)ANII before taxes is NII as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of any tax expenses included in NII and the capital gains incentive fee(3). MSC Income believes presenting ANII before taxes and the related per share amount is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing the Fund's financial performance since (i) the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee is based on realized gains and losses and unrealized fair value appreciation and depreciation, none of which are included in NII, and (ii) tax expenses included in NII may include (a) excise tax expense, which is not solely attributable to NII, and (b) deferred taxes, which are not payable in the current period. However, ANII before taxes is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for NII, NII before taxes or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MSC Income's financial performance. A reconciliation of NII in accordance with U.S. GAAP to ANII before taxes is detailed in the financial tables included with this press release.

(3)Pursuant to the Amended Advisory Agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable to the Adviser in arrears, if any, as of the end of each calendar year. This fee equals (a) 17.5% of the Fund's incentive fee capital gain, which is calculated as the Fund's (i) cumulative net realized gains (net of any related net income tax expense), minus (ii) cumulative unrealized depreciation (net of any related income tax benefit, and excluding any unrealized appreciation), minus (b) the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee, in each case from the MSC Income Listing date through the applicable calendar year ended. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, at the end of each reporting period, the Fund estimates the capital gains incentive fee and adjusts the accrual for the fee based upon a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the then current fair value. Therefore, the calculation of the accrual equals (a) the Fund's cumulative change in net fair value, including both (i) the cumulative net realized gain/loss and (ii) the cumulative net unrealized appreciation/depreciation (in both cases, net of any related cumulative net income tax expense or benefit), minus (b) the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee, in each case from the MSC Income Listing date through the applicable period ended. However, any capital gains incentive fee accrued related to the unrealized appreciation is neither earned nor payable to the Adviser until such time that it is realized, and assuming at the end of a calendar year such incentive fee capital gain exists excluding any cumulative unrealized appreciation (in each case, net of any related net income tax expense or benefits). If the calculation results in an increase in the accrual compared to the previous quarter, the Fund records an increase to the capital gains incentive fee accrual. If the calculation results in a decrease to the estimated incentive fee on capital gains when compared to the previous quarter, the accrual for the incentive fee on capital gains is reduced to the extent of such decrease. For the first quarter of 2026, the Fund reduced the accrual on the capital gains incentive fee by $0.6 million. For further discussion, see Note J — Related Party Transactions and Arrangements in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the Fund's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed with the SEC on May 8, 2026.

(4)Return on equity equals the net increase in net assets resulting from operations divided by the average quarterly total net assets.

(6)These credit statistics exclude portfolio companies on non-accrual status and portfolio companies for which EBITDA is not a meaningful metric.

Hyzak, Main Street's Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased with our performance in the first quarter, particularly given the backdrop of significant economic and geopolitical uncertainty, which resulted in distributable net investment income before taxes in line with our expectations and prior guidance. We believe that these results continue to demonstrate the sustainable strength of our overall platform, the benefits of our differentiated and diversified investment strategies and the continued underlying strength and quality of our portfolio companies. Consistent with our experience in prior periods of broad economic uncertainty, we believe that our ability to provide highly flexible and customized financing solutions to lower middle market companies and their owners and management teams, together with our differentiated long-term to permanent holding periods, represents an even more attractive solution to the needs of many lower middle market companies, and we are excited about our prospects for continued near-term growth of our lower middle market investment strategy. Similarly, in our private loan investment strategy, we are seeing an improved lending environment and significant opportunities, which we believe positions us well to capitalize on new private loan investment opportunities and to generate attractive returns on those investments."Mr. Hyzak continued, "We are pleased to have completed significant investments in our lower middle market investment strategy in the first quarter, following our very strong investment activity in the fourth quarter of 2025, resulting in significant growth of our lower middle market investment portfolio over the last two quarters. Our first quarter results and investment activity, continued attractive investment pipeline and favorable outlook for the second quarter resulted in the declaration of another $0.30 per share supplemental dividend to be paid in June 2026, representing our nineteenth consecutive quarterly supplemental dividend, to go with the 12 increases to our regular monthly dividends declared since the fourth quarter of 2021. Additionally, with the continued support from our long-term lender relationships, and the benefits of our recent follow-on issuance of investment grade notes in March 2026 and private placement issuance of investment grade notes in April 2026, we continue to maintain strong liquidity and a conservative leverage profile, which we believe is important in the current economic environment. We remain confident that our diversified lower middle market and private loan investment strategies, together with the benefits of our asset management business, our cost efficient operating structure and conservative capital structure, will allow us to continue to deliver superior results for our shareholders."First Quarter 2026 Operating ResultsThe following table provides a summary of our operating results for the first quarter of 2026:

(61) %The $3.1 million increase in total investment income in the first quarter of 2026 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to (i) a $7.3 million increase in interest income, primarily due to higher average levels of income producing investment portfolio debt investments, partially offset by a decrease in interest rates, primarily resulting from decreases in benchmark index rates on floating rate investment portfolio debt investments, and the negative impact from investment portfolio debt investments on non-accrual status and (ii) a $3.6 million increase in fee income, primarily due to a $2.6 million increase in fee income related to increased investment activity and a $1.0 million increase in fee income from the refinancing and prepayment of investment portfolio debt investments. These increases were partially offset by a $7.8 million decrease in dividend income, primarily due to an $8.0 million decrease in dividend income from our LMM portfolio companies and a $0.7 million decrease in dividend income from our private loan portfolio companies, partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in dividend income from our other portfolio investments. The $3.1 million increase in total investment income in the first quarter of 2026 includes the impact of an increase of $1.7 million in certain income considered less consistent or non-recurring, primarily related to increases of (i) $1.0 million in such fee income and (ii) $0.7 million in such dividend income, in each case when compared to the same period in 2025.Total cash expenses(4) increased $3.8 million, or 9.1%, to $46.1 million in the first quarter of 2026 from $42.2 million for the same period in 2025. This increase in total cash expenses was principally attributable to (i) a $2.9 million increase in interest expense and (ii) a $0.8 million increase in cash compensation expenses.(4) The increase in interest expense is primarily related to an increase in average borrowings outstanding used to fund a portion of the growth of our investment portfolio, partially offset by (i) a decreased weighted-average interest rate on our Credit Facilities due to decreases in benchmark index rates and decreases to the applicable margin rates resulting from the amendments of our Credit Facilities in April 2025 and (ii) a decreased weighted-average interest rate on our unsecured debt obligations resulting from the repayment in September of 2025 of the $150.0 million of unsecured notes with a maturity date in December of 2025 and the issuance of the August 2028 Notes (as defined in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below). The increase in cash compensation expenses(4) is primarily related to increases in base compensation rates and other employee compensation related accruals.Non-cash compensation expenses(4) increased $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2026 from the comparable period of the prior year, primarily driven by a $0.9 million increase in deferred compensation expense.Our Operating Expenses to Assets Ratio (which includes non-cash compensation expenses(4)) on an annualized basis was 1.3% for the first quarter of 2026, an increase from 1.2% for the first quarter of 2025.Excise tax expense decreased $1.0 million and NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses increased $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, resulting in a net decrease in tax expenses included in NII of $0.6 million. The decrease in excise tax is due to a decrease in undistributed taxable income as of March 31, 2026 and the increase in NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses is due to an increase in taxable NII between the relevant periods.The $1.3 million decrease in NII and the $0.1 million decrease in DNII(1) in the first quarter of 2026 from the comparable period of the prior year were both principally attributable to an increase in total expenses, partially offset by (i) the increase in total investment income and (ii) the decrease in NII related tax expenses, each as discussed above. NII and DNII(1) on a per share basis decreased by $0.04 per share and $0.02 per share, respectively, for the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025, to $0.93 per share and $1.00 per share, respectively. These decreases include the impact of a 2.2% increase in the weighted-average shares outstanding compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to shares issued since the beginning of the comparable period of the prior year through our (i) at-the-market ("ATM") equity issuance program, (ii) dividend reinvestment plan and (iii) equity incentive compensation plans. The decrease in NII on a per share basis in the first quarter of 2026 is after a net increase of $0.01 per share resulting from items considered less consistent or non-recurring in nature compared to the first quarter of 2025, including a $0.02 per share increase in such investment income, partially offset by a $0.01 per share increase in deferred compensation expenses, each as discussed above. The decrease in DNII(1) on a per share basis in the first quarter of 2026 is after a $0.02 per share increase in investment income considered less consistent or non-recurring in nature compared to the first quarter of 2025, as discussed above.The $49.0 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations in the first quarter of 2026 represents a $67.1 million decrease from the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $66.3 million decrease in the net fair value change of our portfolio investments resulting from the net impact of net realized gains/losses and net unrealized appreciation/depreciation, with the decrease resulting from a net fair value decrease of $32.6 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to a net fair value increase of $33.6 million in the prior year and (ii) a $1.3 million decrease in NII as discussed above, with these decreases partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in net tax provision on the net fair value change of our portfolio investments resulting from a net tax provision of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to a net tax provision of $3.5 million in the comparable period of the prior year. The $32.6 million net fair value decrease in the first quarter of 2026 was the result of net unrealized depreciation (including the reversal of net fair value appreciation recognized in prior periods due to the net realized gain in the quarter) of $50.6 million, partially offset by a net realized gain of $18.0 million. The $33.6 million net fair value increase in the first quarter of 2025 was the result of net unrealized appreciation of $63.2 million, partially offset by a net realized loss of $29.5 million. The $18.0 million net realized gain from investments for the first quarter of 2026 was primarily the result of (i) a $17.3 million realized gain on the full exit of a LMM portfolio investment, (ii) a $7.8 million realized gain on the full exit of a private loan portfolio investment and (iii) $1.8 million of realized gains on the partial exits of two other portfolio investments, partially offset by (i) $7.8 million of realized losses on the full exits of two private loan portfolio investments and (ii) a $1.6 million realized loss on the full exit of a LMM portfolio investment.The following table provides a summary of the total net unrealized depreciation of $50.6 million for the first quarter of 2026:

___________________________(a)We had equity ownership in all of our LMM portfolio companies, and our average fully diluted equity ownership in those portfolio companies was 36%.(b)The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates for all debt investments as of March 31, 2026, including amortization of deferred debt origination fees and accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt investments and any debt investments on non-accrual status, and are weighted based upon the principal amount of each applicable debt investment as of March 31, 2026.(c)The average EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is calculated using a simple average for LMM portfolio companies and a weighted-average for private loan portfolio companies. These calculations exclude certain portfolio companies, including five LMM portfolio companies and six private loan portfolio companies, as EBITDA is not a meaningful valuation metric for our investments in these portfolio companies, and those portfolio companies whose primary purpose is to own real estate and those portfolio companies whose primary operations have ceased and only residual value remains.The fair value of our LMM portfolio company equity investments was 197% of the related cost basis of such equity investments, and our LMM portfolio companies had a median net senior debt (senior interest-bearing debt through our debt position less cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA ratio of 2.5 to 1.0 and a median total EBITDA to senior interest expense ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. Including all debt that is junior in priority to our debt position, these median ratios were 2.5 to 1.0 and 2.9 to 1.0, respectively.(5)(6)As of March 31, 2026, our investment portfolio also included:Other portfolio investments in 34 entities, spread across 13 investment managers, collectively totaling $138.5 million in fair value and $148.5 million in cost basis, which comprised 2.4% and 3.0% of our investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively;Middle market portfolio investments in 11 portfolio companies, collectively totaling $81.9 million in fair value and $121.4 million in cost basis, which comprised 1.4% and 2.5% of our investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively; andOur investment in the External Investment Manager, with a fair value of $233.1 million and a cost basis of $29.5 million, which comprised 4.1% and 0.6% of our investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively.As of March 31, 2026, investments on non-accrual status comprised 1.2% of the total investment portfolio at fair value and 4.0% at cost, and our total portfolio investments at fair value were 115% of the related cost basis.External Investment ManagerMSC Adviser I, LLC is our wholly-owned portfolio company and registered investment adviser that provides investment management services to external parties (the "External Investment Manager"). We share employees with the External Investment Manager and allocate costs related to such shared employees and other operating expenses to the External Investment Manager. The total contribution of the External Investment Manager to our NII consists of the combination of the expenses we allocate to the External Investment Manager and the dividend income we earn from the External Investment Manager. During the first quarter of 2026, the External Investment Manager earned $10.3 million of total fee income, and waived $1.0 million of incentive fees, resulting in total fee income, net of waivers of $9.3 million, an increase of $0.7 million from the first quarter of 2025. The fee income earned by the External Investment Manager in the first quarter of 2026 included (i) $6.1 million of management fee income, an increase of $0.3 million from the first quarter of 2025, and (ii) incentive fees, net of waivers of $3.0 million, an increase of $0.3 million from the first quarter of 2025. We allocated $5.5 million of total expenses to the External Investment Manager during the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $0.1 million from the first quarter of 2025. The increase in management fee income was primarily attributable to an increase in total assets managed for clients. The increase in incentive fees, net of waivers, is the result of a an increase in gross incentive fees of $1.3 million, partially offset by the $1.0 million incentive fee waiver. The increase in gross incentive fees was primarily attributable to (i) the amended advisory agreement between the External Investment Manager and its client, MSC Income Fund, Inc., in conjunction with the listing of MSC Income Fund, Inc.'s shares on the New York Stock Exchange in January 2025 and (ii) improved operating results from the assets managed for clients in the first quarter of 2026 relative to the first quarter of 2025. The combination of the dividend income we earned from the External Investment Manager and expenses we allocated to it resulted in a total contribution to our NII of $8.3 million, representing an increase of $0.5 million from the first quarter of 2025.The External Investment Manager ended the first quarter of 2026 with total assets under management of $1.8 billion.First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Conference Call / WebcastMain Street has scheduled a conference call for Friday, May 8, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time to discuss the first quarter 2026 financial results.(7)You may access the conference call by dialing 412-902-0030 at least 10 minutes prior to the start time.

25 %The $1.5 million increase in total investment income in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to a $2.6 million increase in dividend income, primarily due to a $2.5 million increase in dividend income from the Fund's LMM portfolio companies. The increase was partially offset by (i) a $0.8 million decrease in interest income, principally attributable to a decrease in interest rates, primarily resulting from decreases in benchmark index rates on floating rate debt investments, and a larger negative impact from investments on non-accrual status, partially offset by higher average levels of income producing investment portfolio debt investments and (ii) a $0.3 million decrease in fee income, principally attributable to a decrease in fee income from the refinancing and prepayment of debt investments. The $1.5 million increase in total investment income in the fourth quarter of 2025 includes the impact of an increase of $1.1 million in certain income considered less consistent or non-recurring, primarily related to increases of (i) $1.2 million in such dividend income and (ii) $0.1 million in such interest income from accelerated prepayment, repricing and other activity related to certain investment portfolio debt investments, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in such fee income, in each case when compared to the same period in 2024.Total expenses, net of waivers, increased by $1.3 million, or 6.7%, to $20.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 from $19.2 million for the same period in 2024. This increase was principally attributable to a $2.8 million capital gains incentive fee(3) accrued in the fourth quarter of 2025, partially offset by (i) a $1.2 million decrease in interest expense and (ii) a $0.4 million decrease in base management fees. The capital gains incentive fee(3) is primarily the result of the significant net fair value appreciation of the Fund's investments recognized during the fourth quarter of 2025. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to a decreased weighted-average interest rate on the Credit Facilities due to a decrease to the applicable spreads resulting from amendments of the Credit Facilities since the fourth quarter of 2024 and decreases in benchmark index rates.The Fund's ratio of total non-interest operating expenses, excluding incentive fees, as a percentage of quarterly average total assets, or the Operating Expenses to Assets Ratio, decreased to 1.8% on an annualized basis for the fourth quarter of 2025, from 2.1% for the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily as a result of the decreased base management fee percentage under the amended advisory agreement effective upon the MSC Income Listing in January 2025.NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses increased $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year, primarily driven by an increase in taxable NII between the relevant periods.The $0.4 million decrease in NII in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to increases in (i) total expenses, net of waivers, and (ii) NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses, partially offset by an increase in total investment income, each as discussed above. NII on a per share basis decreased by $0.06 per share for the fourth quarter of 2025 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, to $0.28 per share, reflecting the impact of the $0.06 per share capital gains incentive fee accrual in the fourth quarter of 2025.The $2.3 million increase in ANII(1) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to the same factors noted above for the change in NII, which include (i) an increase in total investment income, (ii) a decrease in interest expense and (iii) a decrease in base management fees, partially offset by an increase in NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses, each as discussed above, but excluding the impact of the capital gains incentive fee accrual in 2025. ANII(1) on a per share basis for the fourth quarter of 2025 was consistent with the fourth quarter of 2024 at $0.34 per share.The per share changes in NII and ANII(1) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year include the impact of a 16.6% increase in the weighted-average shares outstanding, primarily due to new shares issued through the MSC Income Listing and the dividend reinvestment plan, partially offset by shares repurchased by the Fund. NII and ANII(1) on a per share basis in the fourth quarter of 2025 each include a net increase of $0.02 per share resulting from an increase in investment income considered less consistent or non-recurring in nature compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, as discussed above.The $30.0 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations in the fourth quarter of 2025 represents a $9.6 million increase from the fourth quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily the result of a $16.0 million increase in the net fair value change of the Fund's portfolio investments resulting from the net impact of net realized gains/losses and net unrealized appreciation/depreciation, with the increase resulting from a net fair value increase of $17.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a net fair value increase of $1.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year, partially offset by (i) a $6.0 million increase in net tax provision on the net fair value change of the portfolio investments resulting from a net tax provision of $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a net tax benefit of $5.7 million in the comparable period of the prior year and (ii) a $0.4 million decrease in NII as discussed above. The $17.2 million net fair value increase in the fourth quarter of 2025 was the result of a net realized gain of $16.6 million and net unrealized appreciation (including the reversal of net fair value appreciation recognized in prior periods due to the net realized gain in the quarter) of $0.5 million. The $1.2 million net fair value increase in the fourth quarter of 2024 was the result of net unrealized appreciation of $9.2 million, partially offset by a net realized loss of $8.0 million. The $16.6 million net realized gain from investments for the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily the result of (i) $16.1 million of realized gains on the full exits of two private loan portfolio investments and (ii) a $6.0 million realized gain on the full exit of a LMM portfolio investment, partially offset by (i) a $5.2 million realized loss on the restructure of a private loan portfolio investment and (ii) a $0.3 million realized loss on the full exit of a private loan portfolio investment.The following table provides a summary of the total net unrealized appreciation of $0.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025:

(a)The Fund had equity ownership in all of its LMM portfolio companies, and the Fund's average fully diluted equity ownership in those portfolio companies was 8%.

(b)The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates for all debt investments as of December 31, 2025, including amortization of deferred debt origination fees and accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt instruments and any debt investments on non-accrual status, and are weighted based upon the principal amount of each applicable debt investment as of December 31, 2025.

(c)The average EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is calculated using a weighted-average for private loan portfolio companies and a simple average for LMM portfolio companies. These calculations exclude certain portfolio companies, including four private loan portfolio companies and three LMM portfolio companies, as EBITDA is not a meaningful valuation metric for the Fund's investments in these portfolio companies, and those portfolio companies whose primary purpose is to own real estate and those portfolio companies whose primary operations have ceased and only residual value remains.The Fund's total investment portfolio at fair value consists of approximately 61% private loan, 36% LMM, 2% middle market and 1% other portfolio investments.The fair value of the Fund's LMM portfolio company equity investments was 201% of the related cost basis of such equity investments, and the Fund's LMM portfolio companies had a median net senior debt (senior interest-bearing debt through the Fund's debt position less cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA ratio of 2.5 to 1.0 and a median total EBITDA to senior interest expense ratio of 2.9 to 1.0. Including all debt that is junior in priority to the Fund's debt position, these median ratios were 2.7 to 1.0 and 2.8 to 1.0, respectively.(6)(7)As of December 31, 2025, the Fund's investment portfolio also included:Middle market portfolio investments in eight portfolio companies, collectively totaling $23.3 million in fair value and $39.8 million in cost basis, which comprised 1.7% and 3.2% of the Fund's investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively; andOther portfolio investments in six entities, spread across four investment managers, collectively totaling $15.5 million in fair value and $13.7 million in cost basis, which comprised 1.2% and 1.1% of the Fund's investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively.As of December 31, 2025, investments on non-accrual status comprised 1.0% of the total investment portfolio at fair value and 3.9% at cost, and the Fund's total portfolio investments at fair value were 106% of the related cost basis.Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results Conference Call / WebcastMSC Income has scheduled a conference call for Friday, February 27, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time to discuss the fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results.(8)You may access the conference call by dialing 412-902-0030 at least 10 minutes prior to the start time.

(1)ANII is NII as determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of the capital gains incentive fee(3). MSC Income believes presenting ANII and the related per share amount is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing the Fund's financial performance since the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee is based on realized gains and losses and unrealized fair value appreciation and depreciation, none of which are included in NII. However, ANII is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for NII or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MSC Income's financial performance. A reconciliation of NII in accordance with U.S. GAAP to ANII is detailed in the financial tables included with this press release.

(2)ANII before taxes is NII as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of any tax expenses included in NII and the capital gains incentive fee(3). MSC Income believes presenting ANII before taxes and the related per share amount is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing the Fund's financial performance since (i) the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee is based on realized gains and losses and unrealized fair value appreciation and depreciation, none of which are included in NII, and (ii) tax expenses included in NII may include (a) excise tax expense, which is not solely attributable to NII, and (b) deferred taxes, which are not payable in the current period. However, ANII before taxes is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for NII, NII before taxes or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MSC Income's financial performance. A reconciliation of NII in accordance with U.S. GAAP to ANII before taxes is detailed in the financial tables included with this press release.

(3)Pursuant to the amended advisory agreement effective upon the MSC Income Listing, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable to the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser") in arrears, if any, as of the end of each calendar year. This fee equals (a) 17.5% of the Fund's incentive fee capital gain, which is calculated as the Fund's (i) cumulative net realized gains (net of any related net income tax expense), minus (ii) cumulative unrealized depreciation (net of any related income tax benefit, and excluding any unrealized appreciation), minus (b) the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee, in each case from the MSC Income Listing date through the applicable calendar year ended. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, at the end of each reporting period, the Fund estimates the capital gains incentive fee and accrues the fee based upon a hypothetical liquidation of its investment portfolio at the then current fair value. Therefore, the calculation of the accrual equals (a) the Fund's cumulative change in net fair value, including both (i) the cumulative net realized gain/loss and (ii) the cumulative net unrealized appreciation/depreciation (in both cases, net of any related cumulative net income tax expense or benefit), minus (b) the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee, in each case from the MSC Income Listing date through the applicable period ended. However, any capital gains incentive fee accrued related to the unrealized appreciation is neither earned nor payable to the Adviser until such time that it is realized, and assuming at the end of a calendar year such incentive fee capital gain exists excluding any cumulative unrealized appreciation (in each case, net of any related net income tax expense or benefits). For the fourth quarter of 2025, the Fund accrued a capital gains incentive fee of $2.8 million. For further discussion, see Note J Related Party Transactions and Arrangements in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8. Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the Fund's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026.

(4)Return on equity equals the net increase in net assets resulting from operations divided by the average quarterly total net assets.

(5)NII for each period in 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 necessary to present the comparable amounts for the year ended December 31, 2025 have been revised to include the impact of excise tax and NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses previously included within the total income tax provision. This correction was determined to be immaterial to any impacted prior periods and had no impact on net increases in net assets resulting from operations or the related per share amounts.

(6)Portfolio company financial information has not been independently verified by MSC Income.

(7)These credit statistics exclude portfolio companies on non-accrual status and portfolio companies for which EBITDA is not a meaningful metric.

(8)No information contained on the Fund's website or disclosed on the February 27, 2026 conference call, including the webcast and the archived versions, is incorporated by reference in this press release or any of the Fund's filings with the SEC, and you should not consider that information to be part of this press release or any other such filing.Contacts:

Main Street's wholly owned registered investment adviser serves as investment advisor and administrator, completed a follow-on public offering of its common stock and, in conjunction with the offering, began trading on the New York Stock Exchange in January 2025In commenting on the Company's operating results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2025, Dwayne L. Hyzak, Main Street's Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are extremely pleased with our continued strong performance in the fourth quarter, which closed another great year for Main Street. This strong performance included several new quarterly and annual records across our key performance metrics. After our positive performance in the first three quarters of 2025, our strong performance in the fourth quarter resulted in a return on equity of 17.7% for the fourth quarter and 17.1% for the full year, strong levels of net investment income per share and distributable net investment income per share and a record net asset value per share, primarily driven by a significant net fair value increase of our investments, and including the benefits of material net realized gains in both our lower middle market and private loan investment portfolios. We also produced extremely strong fourth quarter investment activity in our unique lower middle market investment strategy, resulting in an annual record for gross investments of over $700 million in 2025. We believe that these continued strong results demonstrate the sustainable strength of our overall platform, the benefits of our differentiated and diversified investment strategies, the unique contributions of our asset management business and the continued underlying strength and quality of our portfolio companies."Mr. Hyzak continued, "Our positive performance for the quarter and full year resulted in distributable net investment income before taxes per share which continued to significantly exceed the monthly dividends paid to our shareholders for these periods. In addition, our strong fourth quarter results and favorable outlook for the first quarter resulted in the declaration of another $0.30 per share supplemental dividend to be paid in March 2026, representing our eighteenth consecutive quarterly supplemental dividend, to go with the 11 increases to our regular monthly dividends declared since the fourth quarter of 2021. Our recent declarations of our monthly dividends and our supplemental dividend allowed us to continue our trend of increasing the total dividends paid to our shareholders over the past several years. Additionally, with the continued support from our long-term lender relationships, we continue to maintain strong liquidity and a conservative leverage profile, which we believe is important in the current economic environment. We remain confident that our diversified lower middle market and private loan investment strategies, both of which have continued to generate favorable investment activity in the first quarter, together with the benefits of our asset management business, our cost efficient operating structure and conservative capital structure, will allow us to continue to deliver superior results for our shareholders."Fourth Quarter 2025 Operating ResultsThe following table provides a summary of our operating results for the fourth quarter of 2025:

(26) %The $5.1 million increase in total investment income in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year was principally attributable to (i) an $11.4 million increase in dividend income, primarily due to a $10.9 million increase in dividend income from our LMM portfolio companies and (ii) a $0.9 million increase in fee income, primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in fee income related to increased investment activity, partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in fee income from the refinancing and prepayment of debt investments. These increases were partially offset by a $7.2 million decrease in interest income, principally attributable to a larger negative impact from investments on non-accrual status and a decrease in interest rates, primarily resulting from decreases in benchmark index rates on floating rate debt investments and other decreases in interest rates on existing debt investments, partially offset by higher average levels of income producing investment portfolio debt investments. The $5.1 million increase in total investment income in the fourth quarter of 2025 includes the impact of an increase of $3.9 million in certain income considered less consistent or non-recurring, primarily related to an increase of $4.5 million in such dividend income, partially offset by a $0.7 million decrease in such fee income, in each case when compared to the same period in 2024.Total cash expenses(5) increased $0.4 million, or 0.9%, to $45.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 from $45.1 million for the same period in 2024. This increase in total cash expenses was principally attributable to (i) a $2.3 million increase in cash compensation expenses(5) and (ii) a $0.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by (i) a $2.2 million decrease in interest expense and (ii) a $0.3 million increase in expenses allocated to our External Investment Manager (as defined in the External Investment Manager section below). The increase in cash compensation expenses(5) is primarily related to increased incentive compensation accruals. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily related to increased professional fees. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to (i) a decreased weighted-average interest rate on our unsecured debt obligations resulting from the issuance of the August 2028 Notes and the early repayment of the December 2025 Notes and (ii) a decreased weighted-average interest rate on our Credit Facilities due to decreases in benchmark index rates and decreases to the applicable margin rates related to the amendments of our Credit Facilities in April 2025.Non-cash compensation expenses(5) increased $0.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year, primarily driven by an $0.8 million increase in share-based compensation.Our Operating Expenses to Assets Ratio (which includes non-cash compensation expenses(5)) on an annualized basis was 1.4% for the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase from 1.3% for the fourth quarter of 2024.Excise tax expense decreased $3.1 million and NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses increased $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, resulting in a net decrease in tax expenses included in NII of $1.7 million. The decrease in excise tax is due to the decrease in undistributed taxable income as of December 31, 2025 and the increase in NII related federal and state income and other tax expenses is due to an increase in taxable NII between the relevant periods.The $5.4 million increase in NII and the $6.4 million increase in DNII(1) in the fourth quarter of 2025 from the comparable period of the prior year were both principally attributable to (i) the increase in total investment income and (ii) the decrease in tax expenses included in NII, partially offset by an increase in total expenses, each as discussed above. NII and DNII(1) on a per share basis both increased by $0.05 for the fourth quarter of 2025 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, to $1.03 per share and $1.09 per share, respectively. These increases include the impact of a 1.6% increase in the weighted-average shares outstanding compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to shares issued since the beginning of the comparable period of the prior year through our (i) dividend reinvestment plan, (ii) at-the-market ("ATM") equity issuance program and (iii) equity incentive plans. NII and DNII(1) on a per share basis in the fourth quarter of 2025 each include a net increase of $0.04 per share resulting from an increase in investment income considered less consistent or non-recurring in nature compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, as discussed above.The $131.1 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations in the fourth quarter of 2025 represents a $43.1 million decrease from the fourth quarter of 2024. This decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $38.3 million decrease in the net fair value change of our portfolio investments resulting from the net impact of net realized gains/losses and net unrealized appreciation/depreciation, with the decrease resulting from a net fair value increase of $42.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a net fair value increase of $80.8 million in the prior year and (ii) a $10.2 million increase in net tax provision on the net fair value change of our portfolio investments resulting from a net tax provision of $3.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to a net tax benefit of $6.8 million in the comparable period of the prior year, with these decreases partially offset by a $5.4 million increase in NII as discussed above. The $42.5 million net fair value increase in the fourth quarter of 2025 was the result of a net realized gain of $50.8 million, partially offset by unrealized depreciation (including the reversal of net fair value appreciation recognized in prior periods due to the net realized gain in the quarter) of $8.3 million. The $80.8 million net fair value increase in the fourth quarter of 2024 was the result of a net realized gain of $28.6 million and net unrealized appreciation of $52.2 million. The $50.8 million net realized gain from investments for the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily the result of (i) $42.0 million of realized gains on the full exits of two private loan portfolio investments, (ii) a $23.8 million realized gain on the full exit of a LMM portfolio investment, (iii) a $1.4 million realized gain on the partial exit of a LMM portfolio investment and (iv) a $1.1 million realized gain on the partial exit of an other portfolio investment, partially offset by (i) a $17.8 million realized loss on the restructure of a private loan portfolio investment and (ii) a $0.6 million realized loss on the partial exit of a LMM portfolio investment.The following table provides a summary of the total net unrealized depreciation of $8.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025:

___________________________(a)Includes unrealized appreciation on 43 LMM portfolio investments and unrealized depreciation on 21 LMM portfolio investments.(b)Includes $11.3 million of unrealized depreciation related to the External Investment Manager.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesAs of December 31, 2025, we had aggregate liquidity of $1.265 billion, including (i) $42.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and (ii) $1.223 billion of aggregate unused capacity under our corporate revolving credit facility (the "Corporate Facility") and our special purpose vehicle revolving credit facility (the "SPV Facility" and, together with the Corporate Facility, the "Credit Facilities"), which we maintain to support our investment and operating activities.Several details regarding our capital structure as of December 31, 2025 are as follows:The Corporate Facility included $1.145 billion in total commitments from a diversified group of 18 participating lenders, plus an accordion feature that allows us to request an increase in the total commitments under the facility to up to $1.718 billion.$432.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Corporate Facility, with an interest rate of 5.6% based on the applicable Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") effective for the contractual reset date of January 1, 2026.The SPV Facility included $600.0 million in total commitments from a diversified group of six participating lenders, plus an accordion feature that allows us to request an increase in the total commitments under the facility to up to $800.0 million.$86.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the SPV Facility, with an interest rate of 5.6% based on the applicable SOFR effective for the contractual reset date of January 1, 2026.$500.0 million of unsecured notes outstanding that bear interest at a rate of 3.00% per year (the "July 2026 Notes"). The July 2026 Notes mature on July 14, 2026 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at our option subject to certain make-whole provisions.$400.0 million of unsecured notes outstanding that bear interest at a rate of 6.50% per year with a yield-to-maturity of approximately 6.34% (the "June 2027 Notes"). The June 2027 Notes mature on June 4, 2027 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at our option subject to certain make-whole provisions.$350.0 million of unsecured notes outstanding that bear interest at a rate of 5.40% per year (the "August 2028 Notes"). The August 2028 Notes mature on August 15, 2028 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at our option subject to certain make-whole provisions.$350.0 million of unsecured notes outstanding that bear interest at a rate of 6.95% per year (the "March 2029 Notes"). The March 2029 Notes mature on March 1, 2029 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at our option subject to certain make-whole provisions.$350.0 million of outstanding Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") debentures through our wholly-owned SBIC subsidiaries. These debentures, which are guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the "SBA"), had a weighted-average annual fixed interest rate of 3.26% and mature ten years from original issuance. The first maturity related to our existing SBIC debentures occurs in the first quarter of 2027, and the weighted-average remaining duration was 4.6 years.We maintain investment grade credit ratings from each of Fitch Ratings and S&P Global Ratings, both of which have assigned us investment grade credit ratings of BBB- with a stable outlook.Our net asset value totaled $3.0 billion, or $33.33 per share.In February 2026, we expanded the total commitments under our Corporate Facility by $30.0 million to $1.175 billion. The increase in total commitments was the result of the addition of a new lender relationship, which further diversifies our lender group.Investment Portfolio Information as of December 31, 2025(6)The following table provides a summary of the investments in our LMM portfolio and private loan portfolio as of December 31, 2025:

___________________________(a)We had equity ownership in all of our LMM portfolio companies, and our average fully diluted equity ownership in those portfolio companies was 37%.(b)The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates for all debt investments as of December 31, 2025, including amortization of deferred debt origination fees and accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt investments and any debt investments on non-accrual status, and are weighted based upon the principal amount of each applicable debt investment as of December 31, 2025.(c)The average EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) is calculated using a simple average for LMM portfolio companies and a weighted-average for private loan portfolio companies. These calculations exclude certain portfolio companies, including five LMM portfolio companies and six private loan portfolio companies, as EBITDA is not a meaningful valuation metric for our investments in these portfolio companies, and those portfolio companies whose primary purpose is to own real estate and those portfolio companies whose primary operations have ceased and only residual value remains.The fair value of our LMM portfolio company equity investments was 199% of the related cost basis of such equity investments, and our LMM portfolio companies had a median net senior debt (senior interest-bearing debt through our debt position less cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA ratio of 2.4 to 1.0 and a median total EBITDA to senior interest expense ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. Including all debt that is junior in priority to our debt position, these median ratios were 2.5 to 1.0 and 2.9 to 1.0, respectively.(6)(7)As of December 31, 2025, our investment portfolio also included:Other portfolio investments in 33 entities, spread across 13 investment managers, collectively totaling $134.1 million in fair value and $141.6 million in cost basis, which comprised 2.4% and 3.0% of our investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively;Middle market portfolio investments in 11 portfolio companies, collectively totaling $83.5 million in fair value and $120.1 million in cost basis, which comprised 1.5% and 2.5% of our investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively; andOur investment in the External Investment Manager, with a fair value of $255.0 million and a cost basis of $29.5 million, which comprised 4.6% and 0.6% of our investment portfolio at fair value and cost, respectively.As of December 31, 2025, investments on non-accrual status comprised 1.0% of the total investment portfolio at fair value and 3.3% at cost, and our total portfolio investments at fair value were 117% of the related cost basis.External Investment ManagerMSC Adviser I, LLC is our wholly-owned portfolio company and registered investment adviser that provides investment management services to external parties (the "External Investment Manager"). We share employees with the External Investment Manager and allocate costs related to such shared employees and other operating expenses to the External Investment Manager. The total contribution of the External Investment Manager to our NII consists of the combination of the expenses we allocate to the External Investment Manager and the dividend income we earn from the External Investment Manager. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the External Investment Manager earned $10.2 million of total fee income, an increase of $0.5 million from the fourth quarter of 2024. The fee income earned by the External Investment Manager in the fourth quarter of 2025 included (i) $5.8 million of management fee income, a decrease of $0.3 million from the fourth quarter of 2024, and (ii) incentive fees of $4.2 million, an increase of $0.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2024. We allocated $6.6 million of total expenses to the External Investment Manager during the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of $0.3 million from the fourth quarter of 2024. The decrease in management fee income was primarily attributable to a decrease in the base management fees earned resulting from changes in the advisory agreement between the External Investment Manager and its client, MSC Income Fund, Inc., in conjunction with the listing of MSC Income Fund, Inc.'s shares on the New York Stock Exchange in January 2025, partially offset by an increase in total assets managed for clients. The increase in incentive fees was attributable to the favorable performance and improved operating results from the assets managed for clients in the fourth quarter of 2025 relative to the fourth quarter of 2024. The combination of the dividend income we earned from the External Investment Manager and expenses we allocated to it resulted in a total contribution to our NII of $9.3 million, representing an increase of $0.5 million from the fourth quarter of 2024.The External Investment Manager ended the fourth quarter of 2025 with total assets under management of $1.7 billion.Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results Conference Call / WebcastMain Street has scheduled a conference call for Friday, February 27, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern time to discuss the fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results.(8)You may access the conference call by dialing 412-902-0030 at least 10 minutes prior to the start time.

Original: Main Street Announces Follow-On Investment

So far so good. It needs a little dividend boost. Thank you.

as share price increases so do dividends

I would have to disagree. I have read that throughout the market history over 60% of gains come from dividends. I would rather keep my shares and have it pay me the rest of my life than to have to sell it just to get my money back.

Might be better for the reinvestment but generally a raise in share price is always where the real money comes. Dividends are just a bonus! Look at BEN

I prefer it when the price stays the same as I have been dripping my dividends since 2016. When the price gets high I get less shares per month. All I care about is that their profits and dividends increase every year.

I've been a share holder since 2016 and it has work out any time they did this. I plan on holding MAIN forever as long as they keep the same business plan and the dividend is safe.

glad to see this is finally moving north of 40 again

Sounds good. Usually when companies do a secondary offering it’s bad news. This kind of offering is good for the bottom line. Certainly has helped the pps.

To fund more investments

Anyone know why Main is doing a 250 million public offering?

Added even more

I’ve been buying on every dip and reinvesting the Div. This is my best holding in my portfolio. I love it.

jdjlaw

MAIN looks good for dividend portfolio just sit back and reinvest.

Any reaction to recent news and dip in price. Increase in Div is nice.

Jdjlaw

Any thoughts about the P R today?

$35? Premarket?

Where's the bottom? New X date coming up for the special div. why are we not seeing an up tick?

jdjlaw

Works for me. I look for any dips to grab more.

Jdjlaw

All downgrades lately are legit manipulation.. nobody wants to buy 52 week highs so they downgrade and say it's overvalued and we all get cheapies.

I saw the downgrade news just don't know why. I got an alert about a new SEC filing and I think it had to do with the issuing of 4.5 million shares of stock. I will try to go back and find out more.

Jdjlaw

Downgrade to sell I believe

What is the the cause of the dive today? Dilution?

I've been the stock for a while. Just wondered if I could pick up a little more knowledge. I'm very happy with they way it's preforming.

I am here but this is a quiet board, probably due to happy shareholders.

Yes waiting for $32's

Anyone still here?

MAIN 50 SMA about to cross above the 200 SMA--- look what happened the last time that happened!

Could we be in for another 30% increase??
