| | | | | |
(a) | Contains a variable rate structure. Bears interest at a rate determined by SOFR. |
(b) | Instrument is used in a hedge accounting relationship. The associated change in fair value is recorded along with the change in fair value of the hedging item within interest expense. |
(c) | For further details, see Note 6 “Debt” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. |
| | | | | |
(1) | Unless otherwise indicated, issuers of debt and equity investments held by the Company (which such term “Company” shall include the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries for purposes of this Consolidated Schedule of Investments) are denominated in dollars. All debt investments are income producing unless otherwise indicated. All equity investments (including preferred equity investments) are non-income producing unless otherwise noted. Certain portfolio company investments are subject to contractual restrictions on sales. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “1940 Act”), the Company would be deemed to “control” a portfolio company if the Company owned more than 25% of its outstanding voting securities and/or held the power to exercise control over the management or policies of the portfolio company. As of June 30, 2024 the Company does not “control” any of these portfolio companies. Under the 1940 Act, the Company would be deemed an “affiliated person” of a portfolio company if the Company owns 5% or more of the portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities. As of June 30, 2024, the Company is not an “affiliated person” of any of its portfolio companies. |
(2) | Unless otherwise indicated, the Company’s investments are pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under the Truist Credit Facility (as defined below). See Note 6 “Debt”. |
(3) | Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to either EURIBOR ("E") or SOFR ("S") or an alternate base rate (commonly based on the Federal Funds Rate ("F") or the U.S. Prime Rate ("P")), each of which generally resets periodically. For each loan, the Company has indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of June 30, 2024. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, the reference rates for our variable rate loans were the 3-month E at 3.71%, 1-month S at 5.34%, 3-month S at 5.32%, 6-month S at 5.25% and the P at 8.50%. |
(4) | Par amount is presented for debt investments, while the number of shares or units owned is presented for equity investments. Par amount is denominated in U.S. Dollars ("$" or "USD") unless otherwise noted, Euro ("€"), Great British Pound (“GBP”), or Canadian dollar ("CAD"). |
(5) | The cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on debt investments using the effective interest method. |
(6) | These investments were valued using unobservable inputs and are considered Level 3 investments. Fair value was determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Company's Valuation Designee, under the supervision of the Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") (see Note 2 and Note 5), pursuant to the Company’s valuation policy. |
(7) | Assets or a portion thereof are pledged as collateral for the BNP Funding Facility (as defined below). See Note 6 “Debt”. |
(8) | Loan includes interest rate floor of 1.00%. |
(9) | Loan includes interest rate floor of 0.75%. |
(10) | Loan includes interest rate floor of 0.50%. |
(11) | The investment is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. The Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time of acquisition, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company’s total assets. As of June 30, 2024, non-qualifying assets represented 7.22% of total assets as calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements. |
(12) | Securities exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, and may be deemed to be “restricted securities”. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate fair value of these securities is $56,932 or 3.06% of the Company’s net assets. The initial acquisition dates have been included for such securities. |
(13) | Non-income producing security. |
(14) | The investment includes an exit fee that is receivable upon certain conditions being met. See Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies". |
(15) | Investment was on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2024. |
| |
(16) Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion, although the investment may earn unused commitment fees. Negative cost and fair value, if any, results from unamortized fees, which are capitalized to the cost of the investment. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. See below for more information on the Company’s unfunded commitments as of June 30, 2024:

Consolidated Schedule of Investments
December 31, 2023
(In thousands)
| | | | | |
(1) | Unless otherwise indicated, issuers of debt and equity investments held by the Company (where such term “Company” shall include the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries for purposes of this Consolidated Schedule of Investments) are denominated in dollars. All debt investments are income producing unless otherwise indicated. All equity investments are non-income producing unless otherwise noted. Certain portfolio company investments are subject to contractual restrictions on sales. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “1940 Act”), the Company would be deemed to “control” a portfolio company if the Company owned more than 25% of its outstanding voting securities and/or held the power to exercise control over the management or policies of the portfolio company. As of December 31, 2023, the Company does not “control” any of these portfolio companies. Under the 1940 Act, the Company would be deemed an “affiliated person” of a portfolio company if the Company owns 5% or more of the portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities. As of December 31, 2023, the Company is not an “affiliated person” of any of its portfolio companies. |
(2) | Unless otherwise indicated, the Company’s investments are pledged as collateral supporting the amounts outstanding under the Truist Credit Facility (as defined below). See Note 6 “Debt”. |
(3) | Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to either EURIBOR (“E”) or SOFR (“S”) or an alternate base rate (commonly based on the Federal Funds Rate (“F”) or the U.S. Prime Rate (“P”)), each of which generally resets periodically. For each loan, the Company has indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2023. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the reference rates for our variable rate loans were the 3-month E at 3.91%, 1-month S at 5.35%, the 3-month S at 5.33%; the 6-month S at 5.16% and the P at 8.50% . |
(4) | The cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on debt investments using the effective interest method. |
(5) | These investments were valued using unobservable inputs and are considered Level 3 investments. Fair value was determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Company’s Valuation Designee, under the supervision of the Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) (see Note 2 and Note 5), pursuant to the Company’s valuation policy. |
(6) | Assets or a portion thereof are pledged as collateral for the BNP Funding Facility (as defined below). See Note 6 “Debt”. |
(7) | Loan includes interest rate floor of 1.00%. |
(8) | Loan includes interest rate floor of 0.75%. |
(9) | Loan includes interest rate floor of 0.50%. |
(10) | The investment is not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. The Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time of acquisition, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company’s total assets. As of December 31, 2023, non-qualifying assets represented 6.55% of total assets as calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements. |
(11) | Investment was on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2023. |
(12) | Securities exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be deemed to be “restricted securities”. As of December 31, 2023, the aggregate fair value of these securities is $54,538 or 3.17% of the Company’s net assets. The initial acquisition dates have been included for such securities. |
(13) Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion, although the investment may earn unused commitment fees. Negative cost and fair value, if any, results from unamortized fees, which are capitalized to the cost of the investment. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. See below for more information on the Company’s unfunded commitments as of December 31, 2023:

Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2024
(In thousands, except shares and per share amounts)
(1) ORGANIZATION
Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund (the “Company”) is a non-diversified, externally managed specialty finance company focused on lending to middle-market companies. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated, and intends to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is not a subsidiary of or consolidated with Morgan Stanley.
The Company was formed as a Delaware limited liability company on May 30, 2019 and, effective November 25, 2019, converted to a Delaware corporation. The Company commenced investment operations in January 2020. The Company has delegated the right to manage the assets of the Company to MS Capital Partners Adviser Inc., as the investment adviser to the Company (the “Adviser” or “Investment Adviser”). The Investment Adviser is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley.
The Company’s investment objective is to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns via current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by investing primarily in directly originated senior secured term loans issued by U.S. middle-market companies in which private equity sponsors have a controlling equity stake in the portfolio company.
The Company conducted private offerings of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), to investors in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). At the closing of each private offering, each investor made a capital commitment (a “Capital Commitment”) to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with the Company. As of October 4, 2023, all Capital Commitments had been fully funded.
On January 26, 2024, the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”), issuing 5,000,000 shares of its Common Stock at a public offering price of $20.67 per share. Net of underwriting fees, the Company received net cash proceeds, before offering expenses, of $97.1 million. The Company’s Common Stock began trading on the NYSE under the symbol “MSDL” on January 24, 2024.
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). As an investment company, the Company applies the accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (“ASC 946”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the interim period presented, have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that the Company may ultimately achieve for the year ending December 31, 2024.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Such amounts could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements.
Consolidation
As provided under ASC 946, the Company will not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the accounts of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries in the consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company has formed wholly owned subsidiaries, which are structured as Delaware limited liability companies, for the purpose of holding certain investments in portfolio companies made by the Company. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries include: DLF CA SPV LLC (“CA SPV”), DLF SPV LLC (“DLF SPV”), DLF Financing SPV LLC (“Financing SPV”) and DLF Equity Holdings LLC (“Equity Holdings,” and collectively with CA SPV, DLF SPV and Financing SPV, the “subsidiaries”). The Company consolidates its wholly owned subsidiaries in these consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments, such as money market funds, with original maturities of three months or less, and restricted cash pledged as collateral. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars based upon currency exchange rates effective on the last business day of the current reporting period. Net changes in fair value of investments due to foreign exchange rates fluctuation is recorded as change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Investment and non-investment activities denominated in foreign currencies, including purchase and sales of investments, borrowings and repayments of debt, income and expenses, are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.
Investments
Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Receivables/payables from investments sold/purchased on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities consist of amounts receivable to or payable by the Company for transactions that have not settled at the reporting date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds received (excluding prepayment fees, if any) and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period.
The Company's Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”), with the assistance of the Company’s audit committee (the “Audit Committee”), determines the fair value of the Company’s investments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”) issued by the FASB. The Board of Directors has delegated to the Investment Adviser as the valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) the responsibility of determining the fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio, subject to oversight of the Board of Directors, pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. As such, the Valuation Designee is charged with determining the fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio, subject to oversight of the Board of Directors. ASC 820 defines fair value as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. For some investments, observable market transactions or market information might be available. For other investments, observable market transactions and market information might not be available. However, the objective of a fair value measurement in both cases is the same - to estimate the price when an orderly transaction to sell the investment would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions (that is, an exit price at the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant). Refer to Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements” for the Company’s framework for determining fair value, fair value hierarchies, and the composition of the Company’s portfolio.
Derivative Instruments
Pursuant to ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, all derivative instruments entered into by the Company are designated as hedging instruments. For all derivative instruments designated as a hedge, the entire change in the fair value of the hedging instrument shall be recorded in the same line item of the Consolidated Statements of Operations as the hedged item. The Company’s derivative instruments are used to hedge certain of the Company’s fixed rate debt, and therefore both the periodic payment and the change in fair value for the effective hedge, if applicable, will be recognized as components of interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Fair value is estimated by discounting remaining payments using applicable current market rates, or market quotes, if available. Rule 18f-4 requires BDCs that use derivatives to, among other things, comply with a value-at-risk leverage limit, adopt a derivatives risk management program, and implement certain testing and board reporting procedures. Rule 18f-4 exempts BDCs that qualify as “limited derivatives users” from the aforementioned requirements, provided that these BDCs adopt written policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to manage the BDC’s derivatives risks and comply with certain recordkeeping requirements. Rule 18f-4 provides that a BDC may enter into an unfunded commitment agreement that is not a derivatives transaction, such as an agreement to provide financing to a portfolio company, if the BDC has, among other things, a reasonable belief, at the time it enters into such an agreement, that it will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet its obligations with respect to all of its unfunded commitment agreements, in each case as it becomes due. Pursuant to Rule 18f-4, when we trade reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions, including certain tender option bonds, we need to aggregate the amount of any other senior securities representing indebtedness (e.g., bank borrowings, if applicable) when calculating our asset coverage ratio. The Company currently qualifies as a “limited derivatives user” and expects to continue to do so.
Revenue Recognition
Interest Income
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortizations of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of debt investments represents the original cost, including loan origination fees and upfront fees received that are deemed to be an adjustment to yield, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any. Exit fees that are receivable upon repayment of a loan or debt security are amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt investment, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income in the current period.
PIK Income
The Company has debt investments in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK represents interest that is accrued and recorded as interest income at the contractual rates, increases the loan principal on the respective capitalization dates, and is generally due at maturity. Such income is included in PIK income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. If at any point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest is generally reversed through PIK income. This non-cash source of income is included when determining what must be paid out to stockholders in the form of distributions in order for the Company to maintain its status as a RIC, even though the Company has not yet collected cash.
Dividend Income
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies. Dividend income is presented net of withholding tax, if any.
Other Income
The Company may receive various fees in the ordinary course of business such as structuring, consent, waiver, amendment and syndication fees as well as fees for managerial assistance rendered by the Company to the portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized in income when earned or when the services are rendered and there is no uncertainty or contingency related to the amount to be received.
Non-Accrual Investments
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Additionally, any original issue discount and market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
As of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had certain investments in two portfolio companies that were on non-accrual status. The amortized cost of investments on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $12,373 and $19,353, respectively.
Offering Costs
The Company records expenses related to public equity offerings as a reduction of capital upon completion of an offering of registered securities.
Deferred Financing Costs and Debt Issuance Costs
Deferred financing and debt issuance costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of and amendments to the Company’s borrowings. The aforementioned costs are amortized using the straight-line method over each instrument’s term. Deferred financing costs related to a revolving credit facility is presented separately as an asset on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferred debt issuance costs related to any notes are presented net against the outstanding debt balance on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes, at least annually, to its stockholders as distributions.
In order to continue to qualify as a RIC, the Company must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then the Company is generally required to pay income taxes only on the portion of its taxable income and gains it does not distribute.
The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require the Company to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (the “ICTI”), as defined by the Code, each year. Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a distribution declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such ICTI.
In addition, based on the excise distribution requirements, the Company is subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on undistributed income unless the Company distributes in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income realized, but not distributed, in the preceding year. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by the Company that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company accrued $500 and $936 of U.S. federal excise tax, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company accrued $0 and $0 of U.S. federal excise tax, respectively.
The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more likely than not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes, if any, are included in income tax expense.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires additional disaggregated disclosures on the entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation and additional details on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual
periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
(3)SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Agreement
On November 25, 2019, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with our Adviser (the "Original Investment Advisory Agreement"). The Original Investment Advisory Agreement had an initial term of two years continued thereafter from year to year if approved annually by the Board of Directors or the Company’s stockholders, including, in each case, a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”).
On January 24, 2024, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser (as amended and restated, the “Investment Advisory Agreement”). The Investment Advisory Agreement incorporates (i) a cumulative three-year lookback provision and (ii) a cap on quarterly income incentive fee payments based on net realized capital loss, if any, during the applicable three-year lookback period. The Investment Advisory Agreement will continue from year to year if approved annually the Board of Directors or the Company’s stockholders, including, in each case, a majority of the Independent Directors.
The Company pays the Investment Adviser a fee for its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement consisting of two components: a base management fee (the “Base Management Fee”) and an incentive fee. The cost of both the Base Management Fee and the incentive fee are ultimately be borne by the stockholders.
Base Management Fee
The Base Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.0% of the Company's average gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, including assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage but excluding cash and cash equivalents.
Pursuant to the Original Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser agreed to irrevocably waive the portion of the Base Management Fee in excess of 0.25% of the Company’s average gross assets calculated in accordance with the Original Investment Advisory Agreement prior to a listing of the Common Stock on a national securities exchange.
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to irrevocably waive any portion of the Base Management Fee in excess of 0.75% of the Company's average gross assets calculated in accordance with the Investment Advisory Agreement for the period from January 24, 2024 to January 24, 2025 (the “Waiver Period”).
Base Management Fees waived during the Waiver Period are not subject to recoupment by the Adviser. For services rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Base Management Fee is payable quarterly in arrears. Base Management Fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately pro-rated.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, Base Management Fees were $6,479 and $11,612, net of waiver, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Base Management Fees were $1,862 and $3,688, net of waiver, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $6,479 and $2,012, respectively, were payable to the Investment Adviser relating to Base Management Fees.
Incentive Fee
The incentive fee consists of two components that are determined independently of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. One component is based on income and the other component is based on capital gains.
i.Incentive Fee Based on Income
The first part is determined and paid quarterly based on the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income, and is subject to an Incentive Fee Cap (as defined below) pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement. Pre-incentive fee net investment income is defined as interest income, dividend income and any other income accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter, including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement (as defined below), any interest expense and distributions paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. The Investment Adviser is not obligated to return any incentive fee it receives on PIK interest that is later determined to be uncollectible in cash.
Pursuant to the Original Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company paid its Adviser an income-based incentive fee with respect to the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:
•No income based incentive fee if the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.5% (6.0% annualized);
•100% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.8182% (7.2728% annualized). This portion of the pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the Hurdle Rate but is less than 1.8182%) is referred to as the “catch-up”. This “catch-up” portion is meant to provide the Adviser with approximately 17.5% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if the “catch up” is achieved; and
•17.5% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the rate of return of 1.8182% (7.2728% annualized).
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company pays its Adviser an incentive fee on its aggregate pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of (1) for the quarter ending March 31, 2024 (the “First Calendar Quarter”), the First Calendar Quarter, and (2) commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2024, the current calendar quarter and eleven preceding calendar quarters beginning with the calendar quarter commencing on April 1, 2024 (or the appropriate portion thereof in the case of any of our first eleven calendar quarters that commence on or after April 1, 2024) (in either case, the “Trailing Twelve Quarters”).
Pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of the First Calendar Quarter will be compared to a hurdle rate equal to 1.5% (6.0% annualized), and, if pre-incentive fee net investment income for the First Calendar Quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, the incentive fee will be 100% of pre-incentive fee net investment income until the Adviser has received a “catch up” equal to 17.5%, plus 17.5% of pre-incentive fee net investment income above the catch up.
Commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2024, pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters will be compared to a “Hurdle Rate” equal to the product of (i) the hurdle rate of 1.5% per quarter (6% annualized) and (ii) the sum of the Company's net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any incentive fees payable during the period) at the beginning of each applicable calendar quarter comprising the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters. The incentive fee based on income for each calendar quarter will be determined as follows:
•No incentive fee based on pre-incentive fee net investment income in any calendar quarter in which pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters does not exceed the Hurdle Rate;
•100% of pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of the Trailing Twelve Quarters with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.8182% in any calendar quarter (7.2728% annualized). This portion of the pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.8182%) is referred to as the “catch-up.” The “catch-up” is meant to provide the Adviser with approximately 17.5% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 1.8182% in any calendar quarter; and
•17.5% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of the Trailing Twelve Quarters that exceeds 1.8182% in any calendar quarter (7.2728% annualized), which reflects that once the hurdle rate is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 17.5% of all pre-incentive fee net investment income is paid to the Adviser.
Commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2024, each income incentive fee will be subject to an incentive fee cap (the “Incentive Fee Cap”) that in respect of any calendar quarter is an amount equal to 17.5% of the Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return (as defined herein) during the Trailing Twelve Quarters less the aggregate incentive fees based on income that were paid to the Adviser in the preceding eleven calendar quarters (or portion thereof) comprising the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters. In the event the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value then no income incentive fee shall be payable and if the Incentive Fee Cap is less than the amount of incentive fee based on income that would otherwise be payable, the amount of incentive fee based on income shall be reduced to an amount equal to the Incentive Fee Cap.
“Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return” (A) during the First Calendar Quarter, the sum of pre-incentive fee net investment income in the First Calendar Quarter and (B) during the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters, the sum of (x) pre-incentive fee net investment income in respect of the Trailing Twelve Quarters and (y) Adjusted Capital Returns (as defined below) in respect of the Trailing Twelve Quarters. If, in any calendar quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value, the Company shall pay no income incentive fee to the Adviser in respect of that quarter. If, in any calendar quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap is a positive value but is less than the incentive fee calculated as described above, the Company shall pay the Adviser the Income Incentive Fee Cap in respect of such quarter. If, in any calendar quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap is equal to or greater than the incentive fee calculated as described above, the Company shall pay the Adviser the incentive fee in respect of such quarter. “Adjusted Capital Returns” in respect of a particular period means the sum of aggregate realized losses and aggregate realized capital gains in respect of such period.
For the Waiver Period, the Adviser has irrevocably waived its right to receive each component of the income incentive fee in excess of amounts calculated as described above using (1) 15.0% instead of 17.5% and (2) a catch-up amount (as applicable) calculated using 1.7647% in place of 1.8182%. For periods in which the waiver described in this paragraph is in effect for less than a full quarter or calendar year, as applicable, the applicable incentive fee shall be calculated at a weighted rate during the applicable days in such period during the Waiver Period.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, income based incentive fees were $9,903 and $20,028, net of waiver respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, income based incentive fees were $10,138 and $19,519, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $9,903 and $11,766, respectively, were payable to the Investment Adviser relating to income based incentive fees.
ii.Incentive Fee Based on Capital Gains
The second part of the incentive fee is determined on realized capital gains calculated and payable in arrears in cash as of the end of each calendar year or upon the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement in an amount equal to 17.5% of realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from the date of the Company's election to be regulated as a BDC through the end of a given calendar year or upon the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees (the “Cumulative Capital Gains”). For the purpose of computing the incentive fee on capital gains, the calculation methodology looks through derivative financial instruments or swaps as if the Company owned the reference assets directly.
For the calendar years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025, the Adviser has irrevocably waived any capital gains incentive fee in excess of amounts calculated as described above using 15.0% instead of 17.5%. in the calculation of any such capital gains incentive fee solely with respect to the Waiver Period, such that the capital gains incentive fee shall be calculated at a weighted rate calculated based on this waiver being applicable only during the applicable days in such calendar year during the Waiver Period, based, in each case, on the number of days in the applicable year.
Under U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to accrue an incentive fee on capital gains, including unrealized capital appreciation even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not included in calculating the incentive fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. If such amount is positive at the end of a period, then the Company records an incentive fee on capital gain incentive fee equal to 17.5% (or 15% during the Waiver Period) of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees. If such amount is negative, no accrual is recorded for such period.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Investment Adviser accrued $0 and $0 capital gains incentive fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Investment Adviser accrued $0 and $0 capital gains incentive fees. The Investment Advisory Agreement does not permit unrealized capital appreciation for purposes of calculating the amount payable to the Investment Adviser. Amounts due related to unrealized capital appreciation, if any, will not be paid to the Investment Adviser until realized under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement and determined based on the calculation. Incentive fees on Cumulative Capital Gains crystallize at calendar year-end.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $0 and $0, respectively, were payable to the Investment Adviser relating to capital gains incentive fees payable.

(5) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
ASC 820 establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which ranks the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instruments and their specific characteristics. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.
The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:
Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical financial instruments as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Company will not adjust the quoted price for these instruments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are either directly or indirectly observable as of the measurement date. The types of financial instruments in this category include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in markets that are not active, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.
Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. The types of financial instruments in this category include investments in privately held entities, non-investment grade residual interests in securitizations and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument.
Pursuant to the framework set forth above, the Company values securities traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the exchange closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of the investments from pricing services, brokers or dealers’ quotes, or counterparty marks in order to value liquid assets that are not traded in active markets. Pricing services aggregate, evaluate and report pricing from a variety of sources including observed trades of identical or similar securities, broker or dealer quotes, model-based valuations and internal fundamental analysis and research. When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to U.S. GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined adequate, the Company uses the quote obtained.
Securities that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Valuation Designee or the Board of Directors, does not represent fair value, each is valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available. These valuation techniques may vary by investment but include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and discounted cash flow analyses. Non-controlled debt investments are generally fair valued using discounted cash flow technique. Expected cash flows are projected based on contractual terms and discounted back to the measurement date based on a discount rate. Discount rate is determined based upon an assessment of current and expected yields for similar investments and risk profiles. Non-controlled equity investments are generally fair valued using a market approach and/or an income approach. The market approach typically utilizes market value multiples of comparable publicly traded companies. The income approach typically utilizes a discounted cash flow analysis of the portfolio company. The Valuation Designee, under the supervision of the Board of Directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
1)each portfolio company or investment is initially valued by using a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs and updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs;
2)preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and reviewed by a valuation committee comprised of members of the Investment Adviser’s senior management;
3)the Board of Directors or Valuation Designee engages independent third-party valuation firms to provide positive assurance on a portion of the Company’s illiquid investments each quarter (such that each illiquid investment is reviewed by an independent valuation firm at least once on a rolling twelve-month basis) including review of management’s preliminary valuation and conclusion of fair value;
4)the Audit Committee reviews the assessments of the Valuation Designee and the independent third-party valuation firms and provides the Board of Directors with recommendations with respect to the fair value of each investment in the Company’s portfolio; and
5)the Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Audit Committee and determine the fair value of each investment in the Company’s portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Valuation Designee and, where applicable, the third-party valuation firms.
The fair value is generally determined based on the assessment of the following factors, as relevant:
• the nature and realizable value of any collateral;
• call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;
• the portfolio company’s leverage and ability to make payments;
• the portfolio company’s public or private letter credit ratings;
• the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;
• prevailing interest rates for like securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;
• the markets in which the issuer does business and recent economic and/or market events; and
• comparisons to publicly traded securities.
Investment performance data utilized will be the most recently available as of the measurement date which in many cases may reflect up to a one quarter lag in information.
The Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for the determination, in good faith, of the fair value of the Company’s portfolio investments.
The following tables present the fair value hierarchy of investments:

(1) Weighted average is calculated by weighting the significant unobservable input by the relative fair value of the investment.
The significant unobservable input used in yield analysis is discount rate based on comparable market yields. Significant increases in discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. The significant unobservable input used in the market approach is the comparable company multiple. The multiple is used to estimate the enterprise value of the underlying investment. An increase/decrease in the multiple would result in an increase/decrease, respectively, in the fair value. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach are the comparative yield or discount rate. The comparative yield and discount rate are used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment. An increase/decrease in the comparative yield or discount rate would result in a decrease/increase, respectively, in the fair value.

The 2029 Notes will mature on May 17, 2029 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at the Company’s option at any time prior to April 17, 2029 at par value plus a “make-whole” premium calculated in accordance with the terms under “optional redemption” in the March 2029 Notes Indenture and at par value on April 17, 2029 or thereafter. The 2029 Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company that rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2029 Notes, rank pari passu with all existing and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company, rank effectively junior to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness (including unsecured indebtedness that the Company later secures) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and rank structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.
In connection with the 2029 Notes Offering, the Company entered into interest rate swaps. Under the interest rate swap agreement related to the 2029 Notes, the Company receives a fixed interest rate of 6.413% per annum and pays a floating interest rate of SOFR + 2.37% per annum on $350,000 of the 2029 Notes. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company paid no periodic payments. The interest expense related to the 2029 Notes is equally offset by the proceeds received from the interest rate swaps. The swap adjusted interest expense is included as a component of interest expense on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2024, the interest rate swaps had a fair value of $1,636. Based on the fair value measurement hierarchy, the
swaps are classified as level 3 investments. Depending on the nature of the balance at period end, the fair value of the interest rate swaps are either included as a component of accrued expenses and other liabilities or prepaid expenses and other assets on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The change in fair value of the interest rate swaps is offset by the change in fair value of the 2029 Notes, with the remaining difference included as a component of interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company designated each interest rate swap as the hedging instrument in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship.

Distributions
Prior to January 26, 2024, the Company had an “opt in” dividend reinvestment plan, or the DRIP. As a result, the Company’s stockholders who elected to “opt in” to the DRIP had their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock, rather than receiving cash. The Company adopted an “opt out” DRIP on January 26, 2024. As a result, the Company’s stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock, rather than receiving cash. The shares of Common Stock distributed in the
Company’s DRIP are either through (i) newly issued shares of Common Stock or (ii) acquired by the plan administrator through the purchase of outstanding shares of Common Stock on the open market. If, on the payment date for any distribution, the most recently computed net asset value per share as of the DRIP is equal to or less than the closing market price plus estimated per share fees, the plan administrator will invest the distribution amount in newly issued shares of Common Stock. Otherwise, the plan administrator will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired by purchasing shares of Common Stock on the open market. The following table summarizes the distributions declared on shares of the Company’s Common Stock and shares distributed pursuant to the DRIP to stockholders who had not opted out of the DRIP.
The following table summarizes the Company’s distributions declared as well as the DRIP shares issued for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and June 30, 2023:

Share Repurchase Plan
On January 25, 2024, the Company entered into a share repurchase plan, or the Company 10b5-1 Plan, to acquire up to $100 million in the aggregate of the Company’s Common Stock at prices below the Company’s net asset value per share over a specified period, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company 10b5-1 Plan was approved by the Board of Directors on September 11, 2023. The Company 10b5-1 Plan requires Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as the Company’s agent, to repurchase Common Stock on its behalf when the market price per share is below the most recently reported net asset value per share (including any updates, corrections or adjustments publicly announced by the Company to any previously announced net asset value per share, including any distributions declared). Under the Company 10b5-1 Plan, the volume of purchases would be expected to increase as the price of the Company’s Common Stock declines, subject to volume restrictions. The timing and amount of any share repurchases will depend on the terms and conditions of the Company 10b5-1 Plan, the market price of the Company’s Common Stock and trading volumes, and no assurance can be given that Common Stock will be repurchased in any particular amount or at all. The repurchase of shares pursuant to the Company 10b5-1 Plan is intended to satisfy the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, and will otherwise be subject to applicable law, including Regulation M, which may prohibit repurchases under certain circumstances. The Company 10b5-1 Plan commenced beginning 60 calendar days following the end of the “restricted period” under Regulation M and will terminate upon the earliest to occur of (i) 12-months from the commencement date of the Company 10b5-1 Plan, (ii) the end of the trading day on which the aggregate purchase price for all shares purchased under the Company 10b5-1 Plan equals $100 million and (iii) the occurrence of certain other events described in the Company 10b5-1 Plan.
The “restricted period” under Regulation M ended upon the closing of the Company's IPO and, therefore, the Common Stock repurchases/purchases described above began on March 26, 2024.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, no shares were repurchased under the 10b5-1 Plan.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated)
In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or this “Report”, except where context suggests otherwise, the terms “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refers to Morgan Stanley Direct Lending Fund and its consolidated subsidiaries. This Report, including the documents we incorporate by reference into this Report, contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and you should not place undue reliance on such statements. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs and opinions and our assumptions. For the avoidance of doubt, we are not a subsidiary of, or consolidated with, Morgan Stanley. Furthermore, Morgan Stanley has no obligation, contractual or otherwise, to financially support us. Morgan Stanley has no history of financially supporting any business development company (“BDC”) on the MS Private Credit platform, even during periods of financial distress. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “may,” “continue,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” “potential,” “predicts,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including:
•our future operating results;
•our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;
•risk associated with possible disruptions in our operations or the economy generally, including disruptions from the impact of global health events;
•uncertainty and changes in the general interest rate environment;
•general economic, political and industry trends and other external factors, including uncertainty surrounding the financial and political stability of the United States and other countries;
•the effect of an inflationary economic environment on our portfolio companies, our financial condition and our results of operations;
•the impact of interruptions in the supply chain on our portfolio companies;
•our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;
•actual and potential conflicts of interest with MS Capital Partners Adviser Inc., our investment adviser (the “Adviser” or the “Investment Adviser”), and its affiliates;
•the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its effect on the industries in which we invest;
•the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;
•the use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments;
•the adequacy of our financing sources and working capital;
•the timing and amount of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies;
•the ability of our Adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments;
•the ability of our Adviser and its affiliates to attract and retain highly talented professionals;
•our ability to maintain our qualification as a BDC, and as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”), under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);
•the impact on our business of U.S. and international financial reform legislation, rules and regulations;
•currency fluctuations, particularly to the extent that we receive payments denominated in foreign currency rather than U.S. dollars, could adversely affect the results of our investments in foreign companies;
•the effect of changes in tax laws and regulations and interpretations thereof; and
•the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and elsewhere in this Report.
The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with “Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements.” Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. This discussion contains forward-looking statements, which relate to future events or our future performance or financial condition and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those set forth in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, or the Form 10-K, and Part II, Item 1A of and elsewhere in this Report. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Report. Moreover, we assume no duty and do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we make directly to you or through reports that we have filed or in the future file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
You should understand that under Section 27A(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to forward-looking statements made in periodic reports we file under the Exchange Act.
OVERVIEW
We are a non-diversified, externally managed specialty finance company focused on lending to middle-market companies. We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be treated, and intend to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. We are externally managed by our Adviser, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. We are not a subsidiary of, or consolidated with, Morgan Stanley.
Our investment objective is to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns via current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by investing primarily in directly originated senior secured term loans issued by U.S. middle-market companies in which private equity sponsors have a controlling equity stake in the portfolio company. For the purposes of this Report, “middle-market companies” refers to companies that, in general, generate annual earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") in the range of approximately $15 million to $200 million, although not all of our portfolio companies will meet this criterion.
We invest primarily in directly originated senior secured term loans including first lien senior secured term loans (including unitranche loans) and second lien senior secured term loans, with the balance of our investments expected to be in higher-yielding assets such as mezzanine debt, unsecured debt, equity investments and other opportunistic asset purchases. Typical middle-market senior loans may be issued by middle-market companies in the context of leveraged buyouts ("LBOs"), acquisitions, debt refinancings, recapitalizations, and other similar transactions. We generally expect our debt investments to have a stated term of five to eight years and typically bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark (such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR).
We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest income from investments we hold. In addition, we generate income from dividends or distributions of income on any direct equity investments, capital gains on the sale of loans and equity investments and various other loan origination and other fees, including commitment, origination, amendment, structuring, syndication or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees.
Pursuant to the exemptive relief granted by the SEC to us and our Adviser (as amended, the "Order"), we are able to enter into certain negotiated co-investment transactions alongside certain Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds (each as defined in the Order) in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies, and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors, subject to compliance with the Order. Pursuant to the Order, we are permitted to co-invest with our affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our eligible directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transactions, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our investment objective and strategies.
We have applied for a new exemptive relief order which, if granted, would supersede the Order with respect to negotiated co-investment transactions alongside certain Regulated Funds and Affiliated Funds (each as defined in the application). There can be no assurance that we will obtain such new exemptive relief from the SEC.
KEY COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Investments
Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt available to middle-market companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.
Revenue
We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest income on debt investments we hold. In addition, we generate income from dividends or distributions of income on direct equity investments, capital gains on the sales of loans and equity securities and various loan origination and other fees. Our debt investments generally have a stated term of five to eight years and typically bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark such as SOFR, or historically LIBOR. Interest on these debt investments is generally paid quarterly. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we may receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments fluctuates significantly from period to period. Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds of sales of securities.
We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring, syndication or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of: (i) investment advisory fees, including base management fees and incentive fees, to our Adviser pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between us and our Investment Adviser (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”); (ii) costs and other expenses and our allocable portion of overhead incurred by our Administrator in performing its administrative obligations under the administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) between us and MS Private Credit Administrative Services LLC (the “Administrator”); and (iii) other operating expenses as detailed below:
•costs of any other offerings of our Common Stock and other securities;
•calculating individual asset values and our net asset value (including the cost and expenses of any third-party valuation services);
•out of pocket expenses, including travel, entertainment, lodging, and meal expenses, incurred by the Investment Adviser, or members of its investment team or payable to third parties, in evaluating, developing, negotiating, structuring and performing due diligence on prospective portfolio companies (including, without limitation, any reverse termination fees and any liquidated damage and any costs related to broken deals) and monitoring actual portfolio companies and, if necessary, enforcing our rights;
•base management fee and any incentive fees payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement;
•certain costs and expenses relating to distributions paid by us;
•administration fees payable under the Administration Agreement and any sub-administration agreements, including related expenses;
•arrangement, debt service and other costs of borrowings, senior securities or other financing arrangements;
•the allocated costs incurred by the Investment Adviser in providing managerial assistance to those portfolio companies that request it;
•amounts payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making or holding investments;
•the costs associated with subscriptions to data service, research-related subscriptions and expenses and quotation equipment and services used in making or holding investments;
•transfer agent and custodial fees;
•costs of derivatives and hedging;
•commissions and other compensation payable to brokers or dealers;
•any stock exchange listing fees and fees payable to rating agencies;
•cost of effecting any sales and repurchases of our Common Stock and other securities;
•federal and state registration fees;
•U.S. federal, state and local taxes, including any excise taxes;
•independent director fees and expenses;
•costs of preparing consolidated financial statements and maintaining books and records, costs of preparing tax returns, costs of Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance and attestation and costs of filing reports or other documents with the SEC (or other regulatory bodies), and other reporting and compliance costs, including registration and listing fees, and the compensation of professionals responsible for the preparation or review of the foregoing;
•the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to our stockholders (including printing and mailing costs), the costs of any stockholders’ meetings, and costs and expenses of preparation for the foregoing and related matters;
•the costs of specialty and custom software for monitoring risk, compliance and overall investments;
•fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;
•any fidelity bond required by applicable law;
•any necessary insurance premiums;
•any extraordinary expenses (such as litigation or indemnification payments or amounts payable pursuant to any agreement to provide indemnification entered into by the Company);
•direct fees and expenses associated with independent audits, agency, consulting and legal costs;
•cost of winding up; and
•all other expenses incurred by either the Administrator or us in connection with administering our business, including payments under the Administration Agreement based upon our allocable portion of the compensation paid to our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and reimbursing third-party expenses incurred by the Administrator in carrying out its administrative services including, but not limited to, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions.
We reimburse the Administrator or its affiliates for amounts paid or costs borne that properly constitute Company expenses as set forth in the Administration Agreement or otherwise. We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or to decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.

1 Calculated as a percentage of gross debt commitments (funded and unfunded). Weighted average EBITDA, net leverage through the tranche that the Company is a lender, interest coverage and loan to value exclude recurring revenue investments, which are investments in portfolio companies in which the Company lends based on a multiple of recurring revenue generated by the portfolio company and not based on a multiple of EBITDA.
2 Amounts were derived from investment due diligence information provided by the portfolio company. Such amounts have not been independently estimated by us, and accordingly, we take no responsibility for such numbers and make no representation or warranty in respect of this information.
3 Computed as (a) the annual stated spread, plus reference rate, as applicable, plus the annual accretion of discounts, as applicable on debt securities divided by (b) total debt investments (at fair value or cost, as applicable) included in such securities. Actual yields earned over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented herein.
4 Net leverage is the ratio of total debt minus cash divided by EBITDA and taking into account leverage through the tranche that the Company is a lender, excluding recurring revenue investments.
5 Interest coverage for a particular portfolio company is calculated by taking credit agreement EBITDA and dividing by annualized latest reported interest expense. Total interest coverage is calculated on a weighted average basis based on total gross debt commitments (funded and unfunded). Calculation excludes recurring revenue deals which are investments in portfolio companies in which the Company lends based on a multiple of recurring revenue generated by the portfolio company and not based on a multiple of EBITDA. Portfolio company statistics are derived from the most recently available financial statements of each portfolio company as of the reported end date. Statistics of the portfolio companies have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount.
6 Calculated using total outstanding debt through the tranche that the Company is a lender divided by total enterprise value from the private equity sponsor or market comparables.

Investment Performance Rating
As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Adviser has developed risk policies pursuant to which it regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our debt investments. Our Investment Adviser has developed a classification system to group investments into four categories. The investments are evaluated regularly and assigned a category based on certain credit metrics. Our Investment Adviser’s ratings do not constitute any rating of investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or represent or reflect any third-party assessment of any of our investments. Please see below for a description of the four categories of the Investment Adviser’s Internal Risk Rating system:
Risk Rating 1 — In the opinion of our Investment Adviser, investments in Risk Rating 1 involve the least amount of risk relative to our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. Risk Rating 1 investments performance is above our initial underwriting expectations and the business trends and risk factors are generally favorable, which may include the performance of the portfolio company, or the likelihood of a potential exit.
Risk Rating 2 — In the opinion of our Investment Adviser, investments in Risk Rating 2 involve a level of risk relative to our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. Risk Rating 2 investments are generally performing in line with our initial underwriting expectations and risk factors to ultimately recoup the cost of our principal investment are neutral to favorable. All new originated or acquired investments are initially included in Risk Rating 2.
Risk Rating 3 — In the opinion of our Investment Adviser, investments in Risk Rating 3 indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition has increased materially since the origination or acquisition of the investment, such as declining financial performance and non-compliance with debt covenants; however, principal and interest payments are not more than 120 days past due.
Risk Rating 4 — In the opinion of our Investment Adviser, investments in Risk Rating 4 involve a borrower performing substantially below expectations and indicate that the loan’s risk has increased substantially since origination or acquisition. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. For Risk Rating 4 investments, it is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition upon exit.
The distribution of our portfolio on the Investment Adviser’s Internal Risk Rating System is as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 |

The increases were primarily due to an increase in average gross assets. Refer to Note 3 “Related Party Transactions” for additional information about the management fee waiver.
Incentive Fee
The incentive fee consists of two components: (1) income based incentive fee and (2) capital gains incentive fee. The income based incentive fees, net of waiver, were $9,903 and $10,138 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 and $20,028 and $19,519 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 net realized losses on our investments was $108 and $(5,517), which was primarily due to the restructuring of three portfolio companies.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, net change in unrealized appreciation on our investments of $2,816 and $5,474, was primarily the result of the changes in spreads in the primary and secondary markets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, net change in unrealized appreciation on our investments of $8,647 and $8,080, respectively, was primarily driven by changes in spreads in the primary and secondary markets.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We generate cash from the net proceeds of offerings of our Common Stock, net borrowings from our credit facilities, and net proceeds of our unsecured debt issuances and through cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments as well as income earned on investments. Details of our credit facilities and unsecured debt issuance are described in “—Debt” below. We may from time to time enter into new credit facilities, increase the size of existing credit facilities or issue additional debt securities. Any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors.
As of June 30, 2024, we had approximately $93.0 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, which taken together with our approximately $406.0 million and $864.4 million of availability under the BNP Funding Facility and the Truist Credit Facility (subject to borrowing base availability) (each as defined in Note 6. “Debt” in the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements), respectively, we expect to be sufficient for our investing activities and sufficient to conduct our operations in the near term. As of June 30, 2024, we believed we had adequate financial resources to satisfy unfunded portfolio company commitments of $511.2 million.
Equity
On January 26, 2024, we closed our Initial Public Offering ("IPO"), issuing 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at a public offering price of $20.67 per share. Net of underwriting fees, we received net cash proceeds, before offering expenses, of approximately $97.1 million. Our Common Stock began trading on the NYSE under the symbol “MSDL” on January 24, 2024.
In connection with the IPO, the Company redeemed any fractional shares of Common Stock outstanding for cash in an amount equal to the pro rata portion of $20.67 per share of Common Stock, which was the initial public offering price in the IPO.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we did not issue any capital calls to purchase Common Stock pursuant to such subscription agreements.
Distributions and Dividend Reinvestment
Prior to January 26, 2024, we had an “opt in” dividend reinvestment plan, or the DRIP. As a result, our stockholders who elected to “opt in” to the DRIP had their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock, rather than receiving cash. We adopted an “opt out” DRIP effective as of January 26, 2024. As a result, our stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock, rather than receiving cash. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of Common Stock will generally be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions; however, those stockholders will not receive cash with which to pay any applicable taxes.
The following table summarize our distributions declared and payable for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Our critical accounting estimates including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, should be read in connection with our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report, including Note 2 “Significant Accounting Policies.”
We consider the most significant accounting policies to be those related to our Investments, Revenue Recognition, Deferred Financing Costs and Debt Issuance Costs and Income Taxes. The valuation of investments is our most significant critical estimate. The most significant input is the discount rate used in yield analysis that is based on comparable market yields. Significant increases in the discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. For a further discussion and disclosure of key inputs and considerations related to this estimate, refer to "Note 5—Fair Value Measurements" included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following (which are defined
in the notes to the accompanying unaudited financial statements if not defined herein):
•the Investment Advisory Agreement;
•the Administration Agreement; and
•the License Agreement.
See Note 3. “Related Party Transactions” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk, market risk and interest rate risk.
Valuation Risk
We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, primarily in illiquid debt and equity securities of portfolio companies. During periods of market dislocation, we will seek to invest prudently in the secondary loan market to provide our investors better risk adjusted returns while adhering to our core investment tenants. Most of our investments will not have a readily available market price. To ensure accurate valuations, our investments are valued at fair value in good faith by the Board based on, among other things, the input of the Investment Adviser, including the Valuation Designee, our Audit Committee and independent third-party valuation firms engaged at the direction of the Board of Directors, or Valuation Designee, and in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the investments we hold. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.
Market Risk
The market value of a security may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, sector of the economy or the market as a whole. Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the probabilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact issuers in a different country or region. Conditions affecting the general economy, including political, social, or economic instability at the local, regional, or global level, may also affect the market value of a security. Health crises, such as pandemic and epidemic diseases, as well as other incidents that interrupt the expected course of events, such as natural disasters, war or civil disturbance, acts of terrorism, power outages and other unforeseeable and external events, and the public response to or fear of such diseases or events, have and may in the future have an adverse effect on a company’s investments and net asset value and can lead to increased market volatility. See “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors—General Risk Factors—We are operating in a period of capital markets disruption and economic uncertainty. The conditions have materially and adversely affected debt and equity capital markets in the United States, and any future volatility or instability in capital markets may have a negative impact on our business and operations.” of our Form 10-K and — "Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors — General Risk Factors — Terrorist attacks, acts of war, natural disasters, outbreaks or pandemics, such as the Coronavirus pandemic, may impact our portfolio companies and our Adviser and harm our business, operating results and financial condition” of our Form 10-K.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, most significantly changes in interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. Because we expect to fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is expected to be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.
As of June 30, 2024, approximately 99.6% of our debt investments were at floating rates. Based on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2024, the following table shows the annualized impact on net income of hypothetical reference rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors and ceilings for floating rate debt instruments assuming no changes in our investments and borrowing structure as of June 30, 2024) (dollar amounts in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Interest | | Interest | | Net |
Basis Point Change - Interest Rates | | Income | | Expense(1) | | Income |
Up 300 basis points | $ | 105,256 | | $ | (29,250) | | $ | 76,006 | |
Up 200 basis points | $ | 70,171 | | $ | (19,500) | | $ | 50,671 | |
Up 100 basis points | $ | 35,085 | | $ | (9,750) | | $ | 25,335 | |
Up 25 basis points | $ | 8,771 | | $ | (2,438) | | $ | 6,333 | |
Down 25 basis points | $ | (8,771) | | $ | 2,438 | | $ | (6,333) | |

(1) Includes the impact of our interest rate swaps as a result of interest rate changes.
We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts or our credit facilities, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates or higher exchange rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates or investments denominated in foreign currencies. During the periods covered by this Report, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2024 (the end of the period covered by this Report), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)).
