Portfolio Commentary

(All data as of December 31, 2025, unless otherwise noted)

TPG Twin Brook Capital Income Fund (“TCAP”) has built its portfolio with the objective of generating attractive, consistent total returns across market cycles. TCAP continues to deliver strong performance, outperforming leveraged loans(1) and fixed income(2) markets year-to-date by 410bps and 310bps, respectively. While headlines focused on credit markets have raised concerns regarding the potential for AI-disruption in the software sector, increased asset class redemptions, and credit quality, we remain confident in TCAP’s portfolio, that has been built defensively to be resilient across market cycles. We believe the following characteristics of our strategy support this objective:

Cash Flow Senior Secured Lending: TCAP’s portfolio consists of 100% first lien senior secured debt investments(3) in portfolio companies that have a demonstrated track record of cash flow generation. TCAP’s portfolio does not include any annualized recurring revenue transactions, asset-based or broadly syndicated loans, which we believe contribute to volatility.
Differentiated Business Selection: With a keen focus on the lower middle market, and an average EBITDA of $18.5 million at origination,(4) Twin Brook Capital Partners, LLC (“TPG Twin Brook”) is able to secure covenants and revolvers(5)(6) in 100% of its investments, which are two important hallmarks of our active portfolio management approach.
Resilient Portfolio: TCAP’s portfolio is comprised of all directly originated loans, with no exposure to the broadly syndicated loan (“BSL”) market. As a result of our lower middle market focus and thorough underwriting process, TCAP’s average portfolio company has a loan-to-value ratio of 40%,(7) which has been relatively stable since inception, and an interest coverage ratio of 2.4x.(8) 100% of the loans in TCAP’s portfolio are to private equity sponsored companies,(9) and TPG Twin Brook is a lead lender(10) for nearly all loans in TCAP’s portfolio. We believe these characteristics, along with others, have led to competitive payment-in-kind (“PIK”) and non-accrual rates of 1.3%(11) and 0.2%(12), respectively, with minimal to no change from the prior quarter.
Established Origination Capabilities: TPG Twin Brook has established itself as a leader within the lower middle market. For 2025, TPG Twin Brook was the third and fifth most active lender for Lead and All Roles, respectively.(13)

Direct Lending Market Commentary: Despite record headline numbers regarding global mergers and acquisitions activity in 2025, sponsored middle market lending activity was relatively flat in 2025 versus the prior year with a notable increase in the fourth quarter, particularly in the lower middle market, which was the most active market segment during the quarter.(14) TPG Twin Brook experienced an active fourth quarter relative to its history and a strong year overall generating nearly $9 billion in gross originations across the TPG Twin Brook platform.

Competitive dynamics, including an increase in entrants into the lending market over time, have put downward pressure on spreads. However, the lower middle market remains well-positioned given that fewer established lenders focus on this market, and the lower middle market typically provides a pricing premium for first lien loans, which was approximately 20bps versus the larger market as of year-end.(15) TCAP’s weighted average spread has remained relatively consistent quarter-over-quarter and was 530bps as of year-end. Further, the leverage offered in the lower middle market continues to be more conservative than that of the upper middle market, offering a higher spread per unit of leverage, or risk-adjusted return.

Recent headlines focused on private credit have been driven by various concerns, one of which has been the potential for AI-disruption, particularly in the software sector. TPG Twin Brook focuses on sectors that have exhibited resilience across market cycles and notably has limited exposure to the software sector, representing approximately 2% of the portfolio as of December 31, 2025. This is driven by certain aspects of typical loan structures in the software sector that we believe introduce structural risks to lenders such as lending calculations focused on revenue instead of earnings before taxes, interest and depreciation or “EBITDA,” a measure of profitability. Elevated redemptions have also been highlighted in the news, generating concern around systemic or



liquidity risks. TCAP’s redemptions have been limited to date, at less than 2% per quarter since inception of its redemption program, which we believe is a result of TCAP’s differentiated strategy in the lower middle market, steady performance since inception, and significant institutional capital within TCAP’s shareholder base.

We believe the lower middle market value proposition continues to be strong and differentiated, benefiting from less competition than investment strategies focused on larger companies, a larger proportion of deal activity focused on new transactions versus refinancing activity,(16) a robust add-on opportunity set with the ability to deploy capital into existing, performing portfolio companies, and the potential for strong risk-adjusted returns. TCAP is well positioned to take advantage of the robust opportunity set within its niche of the lower middle market.

End Notes

Note: Data is as of December 31, 2025 unless otherwise indicated. Reflects TPG Twin Brook’s views and beliefs as of the date of this report only, which is subject to change. Returns for periods greater than one year are annualized.



Past performance is no guarantee of future results. There can be no assurance that TCAP will achieve results comparable to those of any of TPG Twin Brook’s prior funds or be able to implement its investment strategy, achieve its investment objectives or avoid significant losses. There can be no assurances that any of the trends described herein will continue or will not reverse.

(1)Leveraged Loans represented by the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan Index, which returned 6.3% year-to-date through December 31, 2025.
(2)Fixed Income represented by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Index, which returned 7.3% year-to-date through December 31, 2025.
(3)Represents senior secured first lien debt as a percentage of total debt investments and excludes TCAP’s equity investments.
(4)Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Calculated as a weighted average at investment closing.
(5)Represents transactions including one or more financial covenants in the credit agreement.
(6)Represents transactions where TCAP holds the revolving line of credit facility.
(7)Loan-to-value calculation uses the weighted average of all term loans, funded delay draw term loans, and funded revolvers, in each case as of investment close date.
(8)Interest coverage ratio is estimated as the ratio of LTM EBITDA to cash interest paid using average 3-month daily SOFR as of December 31, 2025. Amounts derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial statements, have not been independently verified by TCAP, may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount, and are generally 90 days in arrears. Accordingly, TCAP makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a particular portfolio company, LTM EBITDA is generally defined as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization over the preceding 12-month period. Currency fluctuations may have an adverse effect on the value, price or income and costs of our portfolio companies and investments which may increase or decrease as a result of changes in exchange rates.
(9)Represents the number of transactions with portfolio companies that are owned by a private equity firm.
(10)Includes all private debt investments in new portfolio companies funded from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (excluding add-ons and incremental loans to existing portfolio companies and drawdowns on delayed draw term loans and revolvers committed in prior periods). TCAP is categorized as sole or lead lender where TCAP held the total facility at closing or had a “Lead Arranger” designation.
(11)Calculated as payment-in-kind interest as a share of total investment income earned for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025.
(12)As of December 31, 2025. Calculated as the amortized cost of loans on non-accrual divided by total amortized cost of the TCAP portfolio. Based on the fair market value of the TCAP portfolio, TCAP’s non-accrual rate is 0.1%. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt whether principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

(15)KBRA DLD Insights and Outlook Private U.S. Sponsored Deals Analysis as of December 2025. Represents three month rolling averages for first lien term loans. Lower Middle Market represented by companies with EBITDA of <$20 million. “Larger Market” represented by upper middle and large market companies with greater than $50 million of EBITDA.
(16)KBRA DLD Research; Deal Counts by EBITDA as of December 31, 2025. Leveraged Buyouts accounted for >50% of deal activity in the Lower Mid-Market in Q4, versus 16% for Upper Mid-Market. Lower Mid-Market = <$20 million, Upper Mid-Market = <$100 million.



(17)Inception to date (“ITD”) Total Return is calculated as the change in NAV per share during the period, plus distributions per share (assuming dividends and distributions are reinvested) divided by the beginning NAV per share. All returns are derived from unaudited financial information and are net of all TCAP expenses, including general and administrative expenses, transaction related expenses, management fees, incentive fees, and share class specific fees. Returns are prior to the impact of early repurchase deductions for shares outstanding for less than one year and any potential upfront placement fees, unless otherwise noted. ITD Total Return has been annualized for periods less than or greater than one year. An investment in TCAP is subject to a maximum upfront placement fee of 1.5% for Class D and 3.5% for Class S, which would reduce the amount of capital available for investment, if applicable. There are no upfront placement fees for Class I shares. Past performance is historical and not a guarantee of future results. The returns have been prepared using unaudited data and valuations of the underlying investments in TCAP’s portfolios which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for TCAP’s NAV. Valuations based on unaudited reports from the underlying investments may be subject to later adjustments, may not correspond to realized value, and may not accurately reflect the price at which assets could be liquidated. The Class I inception date is May 10, 2022, which is the date Class I shares were first sold to third parties by AGTB Private BDC, TCAP’s predecessor. TCAP merged with AGTB Private BDC on January 1, 2023, with TCAP surviving. For additional information regarding such merger, see TCAP’s prospectus. The Class S inception date is October 1, 2023 and the Class D inception date is December 1, 2023. Class S ITD Total Return with and without upfront placement fee is 8.4% and 10.2%, respectively. Class D ITD Total Return with and without upfront placement fee is 9.8% and 10.6%, respectively.
(18)As of December, 31, 2025. Annualized distribution rate reflects the current month’s distribution, divided by the last reported NAV, annualized, assuming the reinvestment of distributions in the distribution reinvestment plan. This does not include any Special Dividend. Distributions are not guaranteed and there can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of any future distribution. TCAP may fund distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including, without limitation, the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital or offering proceeds, and we have no limits on the amounts we pay from such sources. Distributions may be funded, directly or indirectly, from temporary waivers or expense reimbursements borne by TCAP’s Adviser or its affiliates that may be subject to reimbursement to the Adviser or its affiliates. We have not established limits on the amounts we may fund from such sources. As of December 31, 2025, 100% of inception to date distributions were funded from net investment income or realized short-term capital gains. See TCAP’s prospectus for more information and TCAP’s website for notices regarding distributions subject to Section 19(a). Class S and Class D annualized distribution rate is 9.0% and 9.7%, respectively.
(19)TCAP distribution spread represents the annualized TCAP dividend distribution rate per share for Class I shares as a spread to average 3-month daily SOFR and the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan Index (“Leveraged Loans”). Weighted Average Yield as of December 31, 2025. Please see “Index Definitions” below. Dividend distribution rate reflects the annualized distribution per share for Class I shares in the specific period divided by beginning of period NAV. Please see footnote 18 for additional details on TCAP distributions.
(20)Excess Returns calculated as the total return difference between (i) TCAP and the Leveraged Loan Index, which is represented by the Morningstar LSTA US B/BB Ratings Loan Index and (ii) Non-Listed BDCs, which is represented by the Stanger Non-Listed BDC Index. Please see “Index Definitions” below. As of December 31, 2025, the three-month and one-year returns for TCAP were 2.7% and 10.4%, respectively. See Footnote 17 for additional information regarding return calculations. During this same period, the three-month and one-year returns for the Morningstar LSTA US B/BB Ratings Loan Index were 1.5% and 6.3%, respectively, and the 1-year return for the Stanger Non-Listed BDC Index was 8.1%.
(21)TPG Twin Brook expects to originate 100% of its loans as floating rate investments. Current portfolio includes >99% floating rate investments measured at fair value.
(22)As of December 31, 2025. Private Investments represent Level 3 investments in the investment portfolio which may be quoted or non-quoted but for which inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement, divided by total investments.
(23)As of December 31, 2025. Debt-to-equity ratio represents the ratio of total principal outstanding debt to net assets.

Index Definitions

Index Comparison: The volatility and risk profile of the indices presented herein is likely to be materially different from that of TCAP. In addition, the indices employ different investment guidelines and criteria than TCAP and do not employ leverage; as a result, the holdings in TCAP and the liquidity of such holdings may differ significantly from the securities that comprise the indices. The indices are not subject to fees or expenses, and it may not be possible to invest in the indices.

Stanger Non-Listed BDC Index: The Stanger NL BDC Index tracks the quarterly total return of non-listed business development companies, or BDCs, with total return generally defined as the change in NAV per share plus net distributions per share. To the extent a distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) is available, total returns assume reinvestment of distributions in accordance with the specific terms of the applicable DRIP; otherwise, returns are compounded monthly (certain exceptions apply for fact specific circumstances). Upfront load is excluded in determining total return. Included share classes of component companies are weighted by aggregate share class NAV (estimated by Stanger when not separately reported) as of the beginning of the applicable quarter. Unless the criteria of the Stanger NL BDC Index states otherwise, the index generally includes, for all component companies, all common stock share classes that are or were made available through public stock offerings. However, Stanger may choose to include non-public share classes in its discretion.

Morningstar LSTA US B/BB Ratings Loan Index: The index is a sub-index of the Morningstar LSTA US Leveraged Loan 100 Index. The full Leveraged Loan 100 Index measures the performance of the 100 largest loan facilities meeting the criteria defined in Eligibility Criteria. The index is market-value weighted. The sub-index is composed of loans with ratings between BB+ and B-, as determined by S&P Global Ratings. TPG Twin Brook believes that the Leveraged Loan 100 B/BB index is the index whose constituents best match the credit profile of our borrowers. Its inclusion is intended to demonstrate how the most liquid of loans with similar credit quality to TPG Twin Brook’s loans have performed over different periods.
