Net funds growth includes the impact of new investments and exits of investments as noted in the table above, as well as other variables such as net funding on revolvers, net change in unamortized fees, net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation), etc. 2. Junior Debt is comprised of subordinated debt and second lien loans. 3. Weighted average interest rate on new loan investments is based on the contractual interest rate at the time of funding. For variable rate loans that have a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), Prime or an applicable foreign base rate for loans denominated in foreign currency, the contractual rate is calculated using the current applicable base rate, the spread over the applicable base rate and the impact of any floor. For positions that have a SOFR and Prime rate option, the contractual rate is calculated using current SOFR at the time of funding, the spread over SOFR and the impact of any SOFR floor. For fixed rate loans, the contract rate is the stated fixed rate. 4. Weighted average spread over the applicable base rate of new floating rate loan investments is based on the contractual interest rate spread at the time of funding. Applicable base rates include SOFR, Prime and applicable foreign base rates for loans denominated in foreign currency. For variable rate loans that have a SOFR and Prime rate option, the SOFR spread was used in the calculation. For variable rate loans that only have a Prime rate option, the Prime spread was used. 5. Excludes the write-off of non-accrual assets. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023 , the weighted average interest rate on investments that paid-off was elevated due to the payoff of an investment with a higher interest rate. – Total investments at fair value decreased by approximately 0.2%, or $8.4 million, during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

The quarterly return on equity for the periods after June 30, 2019 are calculated as (a) Adjusted Net Income for the period, as defined on the slide titled “Endnotes - Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this presentation, divided by (b) the daily average of total net assets during the period. Adjusted Net Income is a non-GAAP measure and the Company believes this non-GAAP measure is useful as it excludes the non-cash expense/loss from the purchase premium as further described on the slide titled “Endnotes - Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this presentation. These returns do not represent an actual return to any investor in the Company.

23 1. For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the quarterly variable supplemental distribution declared by our board of directors was based, in part, on the quarterly distribution declared on August 3, 2023, of $0.37 per share that was paid on September 29, 2023 rather than the $0.33 per share quarterly distribution paid during the quarter ended June 30, 2023. 2. In subsequent quarters, the net asset value per share subject to the Net Asset Value Stability Requirement will be adjusted to reflect supplemental distributions paid. For instance, the adjusted net asset value per share as of June 30, 2023, will be $14.79 to adjust for the supplemental distribution of $0.04 per share and the adjusted net asset value per share as of September 30, 2023, will be $14.95 to adjust for the FY23 Q4 supplemental distribution of $0.07 per share. 3. The calculation for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, reflects the net asset value per share as of June 30, 2023. 4.

24 Endnotes - Non-GAAP Financial Measures 1. On September 16, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of GCIC. The merger was accounted for under the asset acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-50, Business Combinations — Related Issues. Under asset acquisition accounting, where the consideration paid to GCIC’s stockholders exceeded the relative fair values of the assets acquired, the premium paid by GBDC was allocated to the cost of the GCIC assets acquired by GBDC pro-rata based on their relative fair value. Immediately following the acquisition of GCIC, GBDC recorded its assets at their respective fair values and, as a result, the purchase premium allocated to the cost basis of the GCIC assets acquired was immediately recognized as unrealized depreciation on the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations. The purchase premium allocated to investments in loan securities will amortize over the life of the loans through interest income with a corresponding reversal of the unrealized depreciation on the GCIC loans acquired through their ultimate disposition. The purchase premium allocated to investments in equity securities will not amortize over the life of the equity securities through interest income and, assuming no subsequent change to the fair value of the GCIC equity securities acquired and disposition of such equity securities at fair value, the Company will recognize a realized loss with a corresponding reversal of the unrealized depreciation upon disposition of the GCIC equity securities acquired. As a supplement to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) financial measures, the Company has provided the following non-GAAP financial measures: • “Adjusted Net Investment Income” and “Adjusted Net Investment Income Per Share” - excludes the amortization of the purchase premium from net investment income calculated in accordance with GAAP. • “Adjusted Net Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss)” and “Adjusted Net Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss) Per Share” - excludes the unrealized loss resulting from the purchase premium write-down and the corresponding reversal of the unrealized loss resulting from the amortization of the premium on loans or from the sale of equity investments from the determination of realized and unrealized gain/(loss) in accordance with GAAP. • “Adjusted Net Income” and “Adjusted Earnings/(Loss) Per Share” – calculates net income and earnings per share based on Adjusted Net Investment Income and Adjusted Net Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss). The Company believes that excluding the financial impact of the purchase premium in the above non-GAAP financial measures is useful for investors as this is a non-cash expense/ loss and is one method the Company uses to measure its financial condition and results of operations. In addition to the non-GAAP financial measures above, the Company has provided the non-GAAP financial measure “Adjusted Net Investment Income Before Accrual for Capital Gain Incentive Fee” and “Adjusted Net Investment Income Before Accrual for Capital Gain Incentive Fee Per Share”, which excludes the accrual for the capital gain incentive fee required under GAAP (including the portion of such accrual that is not payable under GBDC’s investment advisory agreement) from Adjusted Net Investment Income. The Company believes excluding the accrual of the capital gain incentive fee as a non-GAAP financial measure is useful as a portion of such accrual is not contractually payable under the terms of either the Company’s current investment advisory agreement with GC Advisors, which was effective September 16, 2019, or its prior investment advisory agreement with GC Advisors, (each an, “Investment Advisory Agreement”). In accordance with GAAP, the Company is required to include aggregate unrealized appreciation on investments in the calculation and accrue a capital gain incentive fee on a quarterly basis as if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under either Investment Advisory Agreement. As of September 30, 2023, there was no cumulative capital gain incentive fee accrued by the Company in accordance with GAAP, and none was payable as a capital gain incentive fee pursuant to the current Investment Advisory Agreement as of September 30, 2023. Any payment due under the terms of the current Investment Advisory Agreement is based on the calculation at the end of each calendar year or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Company paid capital gain incentive fees in the amounts of $1.2 million and $1.6 million calculated in accordance with its prior Investment Advisory Agreement as of December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively. The Company did not pay any capital gain incentive fee under the Investment Advisory Agreement for any period ended prior to December 31, 2017. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. Refer to slide ‘Summary of Quarterly Results’ for a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measures. 2. Purchase premium refers to the premium paid by GBDC to acquire GCIC in excess of the fair value of the assets acquired.
