fourth quarter and the full year, which closed another good year for MSC Income Fund in its final full year as

an unlisted entity. We believe that the fourth quarter and full year performance provide visibility to significant

opportunities in the future after the completion of the Fund’s successful listing on the New York Stock

Exchange and the related equity offering in January 2025, activities which provide the Fund the increased

current liquidity and a clear path to additional debt capacity necessary to achieve significant growth in 2025 and

2026 and the potential for increased net investment income.”

Fourth Quarter 2024 Operating Results(1)

The following table provides a summary of the Fund’s operating results for the fourth quarter of 2024:

Three Months Ended December 31,
2024 2023 Change ($) Change (%)
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Interest income $29,662 $30,186 $(524) (2)%
Dividend income 2,731 3,393 (662) (20)%
Fee income 1,062 1,182 (120) (10)%
Total investment income $33,455 $34,761 $(1,306) (4)%
Net investment income $14,227 $15,042 $(815) (5)%
Net investment income per share $0.35 $0.37 $(0.02) (5)%
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations $20,462 $21,342 $(880) (4)%
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations per share $0.51 $0.53 $(0.02) (4)%

3

The $1.3 million decrease in total investment income in the fourth quarter of 2024 from the comparable period

of the prior year was principally attributable to (i) a $0.7 million decrease in dividend income, primarily due to a

decrease in dividend income from the Fund’s other portfolio investments and (ii) a $0.5 million decrease in

interest income, primarily due to an increase in investments on non-accrual status and a decrease in interest

rates on floating rate investment portfolio debt investments primarily resulting from decreases in benchmark

index rates, partially offset by higher average levels of income producing investment portfolio debt investments.

The $1.3 million decrease in total investment income in the fourth quarter of 2024 includes the impact of a net

decrease of $0.5 million in certain income considered less consistent or non-recurring, primarily related to (i) a

$0.4 million decrease in such interest income from accelerated prepayment, repricing and other activity related

to certain investment portfolio debt investments and (ii) a $0.1 million decrease in such fee income when

compared to the same period in 2023.

Total expenses, net of waivers, decreased by $0.5 million, or 2.5%, to $19.2 million in the fourth quarter of

2024 from $19.7 million for the same period in 2023. This decrease was principally attributable to (i) a $0.5

million decrease in incentive fees and (ii) a $0.3 million decrease in interest expense, partially offset by a $0.3

million increase in base management fees. The decrease in incentive fees is due to the decreased pre-incentive

fee net investment income resulting from the less favorable operating results for the quarter compared to the

corresponding period of the prior year. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to decreased

weighted-average interest rates on the Fund’s Credit Facilities (as defined in the Liquidity and Capital

Resources section below) based upon the decreases in benchmark index rates for these floating rate debt

obligations, partially offset by higher weighted-average outstanding borrowings used to fund the growth in the

Fund’s investment portfolio. The increase in base management fees was due to an increase in average total

assets in the current year.

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, was 2.1% and 2.2% for the fourth quarter of

2024 and 2023, respectively, on an annualized basis.

The $0.8 million decrease in net investment income in the fourth quarter of 2024 from the comparable period of

the prior year was principally attributable to the decrease in total investment income, partially offset by

decreased expenses, each as discussed above. Net investment income decreased by $0.02 per share for the

fourth quarter of 2024 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, to $0.35 per share. Net investment income on

a per share basis in the fourth quarter of 2024 included a net decrease of $0.01 per share resulting from a

decrease in investment income considered less consistent or non-recurring in nature compared to the fourth

quarter of 2023, as discussed above.

The $20.5 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations in the fourth quarter of 2024 represents a

$0.9 million decrease from the fourth quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily the result of (i) a $6.7

million decrease in net unrealized appreciation from portfolio investments (including the impact of accounting

reversals relating to realized gains/income (losses)) and (ii) a $0.8 million decrease in net investment income,

partially offset by (i) a $5.6 million increase in income tax benefit and (ii) a $1.0 million improvement in net

realized loss from investments resulting from a net realized loss of $8.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2024

compared to a net realized loss of $9.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The $8.0 million net realized loss

from investments for the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily the result of (i) a $5.0 million realized loss on the

restructure of investments in a private loan portfolio company, (ii) a $3.6 million realized loss on the full exit of

investments in a LMM portfolio company and (iii) a $0.5 million realized loss on the full exit of a middle

market portfolio investment.

The following table provides a summary of the total net unrealized appreciation of $9.2 million for the fourth

quarter of 2024:

Three Months Ended December 31, 2024
Private<br><br>Loan LMM (a) Middle<br><br>Market Other Total
(dollars in millions)
Accounting reversals of net unrealized (appreciation)<br><br>depreciation recognized in prior periods due to net realized<br><br>(gains / income) losses recognized during the current period $4.5 $3.3 $0.5 $(0.1) $8.2

Total net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) relating to<br><br>portfolio investments $1.0 $8.6 $0.1 $(0.5) $9.2

(a)Includes unrealized appreciation on 30 LMM portfolio investments and unrealized depreciation on 13 LMM

portfolio investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2024, the Fund had aggregate liquidity of $77.7 million, including (i) $28.4 million in cash

and cash equivalents and (ii) $49.3 million of aggregate unused capacity under the Fund’s corporate revolving

credit facility (the “Corporate Facility”) and the Fund’s special purpose vehicle revolving credit facility (the

“SPV Facility” and, together with the Corporate Facility, the “Credit Facilities”), which are maintained to

support the Fund’s investment and operating activities.

Several details regarding the Fund’s capital structure as of December 31, 2024 are as follows:

•The SPV Facility included $300 million in total commitments plus an accordion feature that allows the Fund

to request an increase in the total commitments under the facility to up to $450 million.

•$266.7 million in outstanding borrowings under the SPV Facility, with an interest rate of 7.3% based on

SOFR effective for the contractual reset date of January 1, 2025.

•The Corporate Facility included $165 million in total commitments from a diversified group of six lenders

plus an accordion feature that allows the Fund to request an increase in the total commitments under the

facility to up to $200 million.

•$149.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Corporate Facility, with an interest rate of 6.4% based

on SOFR effective for the contractual reset date of January 1, 2025.

•$150 million of notes outstanding that bear interest at a rate of 4.04% per year (the “Series A Notes”). The

Series A Notes mature on October 30, 2026.

•The Fund’s investment grade rating from KBRA was reaffirmed in the fourth quarter with a rating of BBB-

with a stable outlook.

•The Fund’s net asset value totaled $624.9 million, or $15.53 per share.

In January 2025, the Fund listed its shares of common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”)

and completed a follow-on equity offering which generated net proceeds of approximately $91 million in

connection therewith (see additional details in the Recent Developments section below), providing the Fund a

significant increase in liquidity and expanding the Fund’s ability to utilize additional leverage under its existing

regulatory asset coverage requirements, which effectively limit the Fund’s total debt capacity to an amount

equal to the Fund’s net asset value.

On January 29, 2025, the Fund’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the application of modified

regulatory asset coverage requirements, which will effectively increase the Fund’s total leverage capacity to an

amount equal to two times the Fund’s current total leverage capacity on January 29, 2026.

5

In February 2025, the Fund entered into an amendment to the Corporate Facility that increased the total

commitments under the Corporate Facility from $165.0 million to $245.0 million and increased the accordion

feature of the Corporate Facility, which provides the Fund the right to request increases in commitments under

the Corporate Facility on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments, to up to a total of $300.0

million.

Investment Portfolio Information as of December 31, 2024(3)

The following table provides a summary of the investments in the Fund’s private loan portfolio, LMM portfolio

and middle market portfolio as of December 31, 2024:

As of As of December 31, 2024
Private Loan LMM (a) Middle Market
(dollars in millions)
Number of portfolio companies 84 57 10
Fair value $677.9 $436.1 $39.4
Cost $697.5 $357.1 $66.3
Debt investments as a % of portfolio (at cost) 93.9% 67.8% 87.8%
Equity investments as a % of portfolio (at cost) 6.1% 32.2% 12.2%
% of debt investments at cost secured by first priority lien 99.9% 99.9% 99.9%
Weighted-average annual effective yield (b) 12.0% 13.0% 14.1%
Average EBITDA (c) $28.6 $10.8 $38.2

(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 9%.

(b)The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates for all debt

investments as of December 31, 2024, 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, 2024.

(c)The average EBITDA is calculated using a weighted-average for the private loan and middle market

portfolios and a simple average for the LMM portfolio. These calculations exclude certain portfolio

companies, including two private loan portfolio companies, three LMM portfolio companies and one middle

market portfolio company, 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 58% private loan, 37% LMM, 3%

middle market and 2% other portfolio investments.

The fair value of the Fund’s LMM portfolio company equity investments was 179% of the cost 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 (Earnings Before Interest,

Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) ratio of 2.9 to 1.0 and a median total EBITDA to senior interest expense

ratio of 2.6 to 1.0. Including all debt that is junior in priority to the Fund’s debt position, these median ratios

were 2.9 to 1.0 and 2.5 to 1.0, respectively.(3)(4)

As of December 31, 2024, the Fund’s investment portfolio also included other portfolio investments in six

entities, spread across four investment managers, collectively totaling $24.1 million in fair value and $17.9

million in cost basis, which comprised 2.0% and 1.6% of the Fund’s investment portfolio at fair value and cost,

respectively.

6

As of December 31, 2024, non-accrual investments comprised 1.5% of the total investment portfolio at fair

value and 5.6% at cost, and the Fund’s total portfolio investments at fair value were 103% of the related cost

basis.

share repurchase plan, under which the Company may repurchase up to $65.0 million of shares of its common

stock for a twelve-month period beginning in March 2025, at times when the market price per share of the
