Fourth Fiscal Quarter 2024 Highlights:
Portfolio Activity: Invested $28.5 million in existing portfolio companies.
Portfolio Mix: Secured first lien assets continue to be over 70% of our debt investments, at cost, while the weighted average yield on debt investments was consistent at 14.0%.
Credit Facility Availability: Increased the committed facility amount by $25.0 million to $293.7 million and ended the quarter with availability in excess of $200 million.
Fourth Fiscal Quarter 2024 Results:
Total investment income decreased by $2.0 million, or 7.7%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to the prior quarter ended June 30, 2024, driven by a $2.2 million decrease in other income. The decrease in other income was driven primarily by a $1.1 million decrease in prepayment fee income and a $0.9 million decrease in dividend income quarter over quarter.
Total expenses decreased by $0.5 million, or 4.0%, quarter over quarter primarily due to a $0.5 million decrease in the net incentive fee, driven by lower pre-incentive fee net investment income quarter over quarter.
Net investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $11.0 million, or $0.50 per share.
The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $31.8 million, or $1.46 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to $19.1 million, or $0.88 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The current quarter increase in net assets resulting from operations was primarily driven by $20.8 million of net unrealized appreciation recognized during the quarter.
Fiscal Year Ended 2024 Results:
Total investment income during the years ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $96.6 million and $86.4 million, respectively. The year over year increase was primarily due to a $10.3 million increase in interest income, driven by an increase in the weighted average principal balance of our interest-bearing investment portfolio of $39.0 million, or 6.2%, year over year, and an increase in the weighted average yield from 13.3% during the year ended September 30, 2023 to 13.9% during the year ended September 30, 2024.
Expenses, net of any non-contractual, unconditional and irrevocable credits to fees from the Adviser, increased $5.1 million, or 11.3%, for the year ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the prior year. This increase was primarily due to a $2.0 million increase in the net base management fee, a $1.0 million increase in the net incentive fee, and a $0.9 million increase in interest expense.
Net investment income for the year ended September 30, 2024 was $46.1 million, an increase of 12.3%, as compared to the prior year, or $2.11 per share.
The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $94.5 million, or $4.34 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2024, compared to $42.7 million, or $2.29 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2023. The current year increase was driven by net investment income of $46.1 million, $42.7 million in net unrealized appreciation, and $6.0 million in net realized gains.
Subsequent Events: Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the following significant events occurred:
Portfolio Activity:

Comments from Gladstone Capital's President, Bob Marcotte: "We are pleased to report the successful exit of our largest investment position after the end of the quarter at a material gain, a portion of which is reflected in the supplemental distribution recently announced. While the pacing of our direct originations picked up last quarter, the fundings carried over to the current quarter which, combined with the reinvestment of the majority of the equity gain proceeds, are expected to enhance our net interest margin and earnings available for cash distributions in FY 2025."
