[SCHEDULE 13D/A] Carlyle Credit Income Fund SEC Filing

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Schedule 13D/A highlights a change in the ownership position of Eagle Point Credit Management LLC ("EPCM") in Carlyle Credit Income Fund (CCIF) Series A Preferred Shares. The amendment, dated 30 June 2025 and signed 2 July 2025, shows EPCM now beneficially owns 422,634 preferred shares, equal to 20.04 % of the class. EPCM exercises sole voting and dispositive power over the entire block through discretionary authority granted by the underlying managed accounts.

Recent trading activity: Since the prior amendment filed 2 June 2025, the managed accounts executed 29 open-market sales between 2 June and 2 July 2025. The individual trades ranged from 1 to 5,800 shares at prices of $25.57–$25.69, indicating a modest step-down in the position rather than an exit. No purchases were reported during the period.

Purpose & funding: EPCM states the shares were acquired for investment purposes using existing capital of each account and that it may adjust the position at its discretion. No arrangements, contracts or voting agreements beyond normal investment-management authority were disclosed.

• Reporting Person: Eagle Point Credit Management LLC, a Delaware-domiciled registered investment adviser.
• Ownership structure: EPCM is wholly owned, through intermediate entities, by Eagle Point Holdings LP; majority board control resides with Trident EP-II Holdings LLC.
• Threshold implications: The 20 % stake keeps EPCM above the 5 % and 10 % reporting thresholds, confirming continued status as a significant insider under Section 13(d).

While the filing signals confidence through a still-large ownership block, the series of June sales could imply portfolio rebalancing or reduced appetite. Investors should monitor future amendments for further reductions, which could affect preferred-share liquidity and market perception of sponsor support.

Positive

• EPCM retains a sizable 20.04 % holding, signalling continued strategic interest in CCIF’s preferred securities.
• No adverse intent disclosed; the position is held strictly for investment, with no governance or control campaign indicated.

Negative

• Approximately 17,000 preferred shares were sold in June 2025, suggesting a gradual reduction in support from a major holder.
• Sustained selling could weigh on limited-float preferred shares if the trend accelerates, potentially pressuring market price and liquidity.

Insights

Financial Analyst

TL;DR Modest trim but EPCM retains a 20 % stake; impact neutral unless selling continues.

EPCM remains a cornerstone holder of CCIF preferreds, yet the 29 reported sales—roughly 17,000 shares overall—show incremental distribution. At current ownership of 422,634 shares, EPCM still exceeds typical blocking thresholds, suggesting continued influence on any corporate actions affecting preferred holders. The reported sale prices (~$25.60) sit near par, implying no distress or discount-driven exit. Because the preferreds trade OTC and liquidity is limited, EPCM’s future sell-down pace could pressure pricing. However, a single adviser reducing exposure from an overweight position is routine portfolio management, not necessarily a signal of deteriorating credit quality at CCIF. Overall market impact is neutral; watch subsequent 13D/A filings for trend confirmation.
