CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc. (NYSE: KBDC) (“KBDC” or the “Company”), a business development company externally managed by its investment adviser, KA Credit Advisors, LLC, an affiliate of Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, LP (“Kayne Anderson”), today announced the closing of a private placement offering of $200 million of senior unsecured notes (the “Series C, D and E Notes”).

The private placement consisted of $40 million of floating rate Series C Notes with an interest rate of SOFR plus 2.32% per annum due June 2028; $60 million of 5.80% Series D Notes due June 2028 and $100 million of 6.15% Series E Notes due October 2030. Funding will occur on October 15, 2025, and net proceeds from the offering will be used to refinance existing debt and for general corporate purposes.

In connection with the Series D and Series E Notes, the Company entered into interest rate swaps to more closely align the interest rates of the Company’s liabilities with the Company’s investment portfolio, which consists of predominantly floating rate loans.

Under the interest rate swap agreement related to the Series E Notes, the Company receives a fixed interest rate of 6.15% per annum and pays a floating interest rate of SOFR plus 2.6565% per annum on the $100 million of the Series E Notes. The Company designated each interest rate swap as the hedging instrument in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship.

The Series C, D and E Notes issued in connection with this private placement will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration.
