OFS’s net asset value (NAV) per common share decreased from $9.19 at the end of 2025 to $8.16 as of March 31, 2026.

Total investment income for the quarter decreased from $9.4 million in the prior quarter to $8.9 million, mainly due to lower interest income, partially offset by higher dividend income. Expenses, net of a management fee waiver, decreased slightly from $6.7 million to $6.4 million.
OFS reported a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $11.6 million for the quarter, compared to a $10.8 million decrease in the prior quarter.
