"Despite near-term industry headwinds associated with the First Brands bankruptcy, our portfolio delivered increased sequential recurring cash flows in excess of distributions and expenses," said Indranil Basu, Chief Executive Officer of Pearl Diver Credit Company. "While our net asset value per share at the end of the quarter was impacted by the tightening of loan spreads, our differentiated machine learning and data science-driven approach to CLO equity investing allowed us to acquire a number of new positions that we identified as attractive risk-adjusted opportunities. As we close out 2025 and as near-term headwinds begin to abate, we believe we remain well positioned to continue executing on our CLO equity investment strategy in order to create additional value for our shareholders."
