Amendment adds final-results notice after tender offer expiration

The amendment supplements the Schedule 14D-9 to state that the Offer expired at June 11, 2026 and that the Purchaser provided final results to the Company. The filing follows standard disclosure practice for post-offer updates.

Timing and numeric final results are referenced as received from the Purchaser; subsequent public filings or the Purchaser's Schedule TO amendment may contain the detailed tabulation.

Transaction terms reaffirmed: $150M capacity at $11.00 per share

The filing reiterates the Offer size of $150,000,000 and a per-share purchase price of $11.00. These are the operative terms disclosed in the amendment and prior materials described as the Offer.

Investor impact depends on the Purchaser's reported final uptake; check related Schedule TO or purchaser disclosures for the subscription level and consummation details.

Schedule reference Schedule 14D-9 Amendment No. 5 amendment to the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement
Schedule 14D-9 regulatory
"Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 previously filed by FS KKR"
Schedule 14D-9 is a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in which a company publicly states its response and recommendation to an outside bid to buy its shares (a tender offer). Think of it as the company’s advisory note to shareholders explaining whether to sell, keep, or seek alternatives, and why, with facts and reasoning. Investors rely on it to gauge management’s view of the offer’s fairness and the likely impact on value and strategy.
Offer to Purchase financial
"terms set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated May 12, 2026"
An offer to purchase is a formal proposal from one party to buy a specific amount of shares or assets from another party at a set price. It matters to investors because it signals interest in acquiring ownership and can influence the value or control of a company. Think of it as someone putting forward a clear, serious offer to buy something they find valuable.
Letter of Transmittal financial
"and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as amended or supplemented to date)"
A letter of transmittal is a written form investors use when sending physical stock certificates or electronic ownership documents to a company or its agent to surrender shares, tender them in an offer, or claim payment or replacement securities. It acts like a packing slip that lists what is enclosed, gives instructions on how the transfer should be handled, and provides proof of the transaction—important for ensuring investors receive the correct payment or new securities without delay or dispute.
Schedule TO regulatory
"Tender Offer Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO with the SEC on May 12, 2026"
A phrase indicating that a company plans or intends to hold an event, publish information, or take an action at a specified future time, but that the timing is not guaranteed and may change. For investors it signals an expected milestone—like an earnings call, product launch, or filing—so think of it as a calendar note rather than a firm promise; timing shifts can affect trading, expectations, and planning.
