CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Any such forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “target,” “goals,” “plan,” “forecast,” “project,” other variations on these words or comparable terminology, or the negative of these words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that may be incorrect, and we cannot assure you that the projections included in these forward-looking statements will come to pass. Our actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including the factors discussed in Item 1A entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, Item 1A entitled “Risk Factors” in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements:

•Our future operating results;

•Our business prospects and prospects of our portfolio companies;

•The ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

•Changes in political, economic, or industry conditions, the interest rate environment, imposition of tariffs, the risk of future government shutdowns or conditions affecting the financial and capital markets;

•Our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;

•Volatility of leveraged loan markets;

•The adequacy of our financing sources and working capital;

•Risk of borrower default;

•Interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly because we intend to use leverage as part of our investment strategy;

•Actual and potential conflicts of interest with Willow Tree Capital Corp Advisors LLC (the "Adviser") and its affiliates;

•Our ability to make distributions;

•Changes to the fair value of our investments;

•Geo-political conditions, including revolution, insurgency or war including those arising out of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, the conflicts in the Middle East, the ongoing turmoil in Europe and South America, and general uncertainty surrounding the financial and political stability of the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and China;

•The impact of increased competition among other entities and our affiliates for investment opportunities;

•Competition with other entities and our affiliates for investment opportunities;

•The ability of our Adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments;

•The ability of our Adviser to attract and retain highly talented professionals;

•Risks related to the uncertainty of the value of our portfolio investments, particularly those having no liquid trading market;

•Our ability to qualify for and maintain tax treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act");

•The impact of information technology system failures, data security breaches, data privacy compliance, network disruptions, and cybersecurity attacks, and the increasing use of artificial intelligence and machine learning technology; and

•Future changes in laws or regulations and conditions in our operating areas.

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. We have based the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on information available to us on the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements, unless we are required to do so by applicable law. However, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we may file in the future with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.

(1)Unless otherwise indicated, all loan investments held by the Company (which such term “Company” shall include the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries for purposes of this Consolidated Schedule of Investments) are denominated in U.S. dollars. All loan investments are income producing unless otherwise indicated. All loan investments are first lien debt unless otherwise indicated. Certain portfolio company investments are subject to contractual restrictions on sales, such as approval of the agent or borrower. The total par amount is presented for loan investments. Certain of the Company’s loan investments are pledged as collateral under the Company's credit facility.

(2)Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to either Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), an alternate base rate (commonly based on the Federal Funds Rate ("F") or the U.S. Prime Rate ("P")), or Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("E"), which generally resets periodically. For each loan investment, the Company has indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2026.

(3)The cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on loan investments using the effective interest method in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

(4)Loan investment is pledged as collateral under the Company's credit facility. A single investment may be divided into parts that are individually pledged as collateral to the Company's credit facility.

(5)Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion, although the investment may be subject to unused commitment fees. Negative cost and fair values are the result of the commitment being valued below par.

(6)Investment is subordinated.

(7)Unless otherwise indicated, investments are valued using unobservable inputs and are considered Level 3 investments. Fair value was determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors, in accordance with the Company’s valuation policy. See Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies and Note 5. Fair Value Measurements in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(8)Under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time of acquisition, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company’s total assets. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had no non-qualifying assets.

(9)For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at March 31, 2026.

WILLOW TREE CAPITAL CORPORATION

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization

Willow Tree Capital Corporation (the “Company”), was formed on June 29, 2022 as a Maryland Corporation. The Company invests primarily in floating rate middle market senior secured loans. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, beginning with its tax year ended December 31, 2024, the Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is externally managed by Willow Tree Capital Corp Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”).

On October 31, 2023, WT Capital Fund - SPV1, LLC (the "SPV Subsidiary"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company was formed. The SPV Subsidiary is consolidated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for reporting purposes, and the portfolio investments held by it are included in the consolidated financial statements. On January 19, 2024, Willow Tree Capital Offshore Blocker, LLC (the "Blocker Subsidiary"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company was formed. On December 23, 2025, WT Capital Fund - SPV1 Sub Gold LLC (the “SPV1 Subsidiary”), a Delaware limited liability company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company was formed. The SPV Subsidiary, the Blocker Subsidiary and the SPV1 Subsidiary are consolidated for GAAP reporting purposes. The portfolio investments held by the SPV Subsidiary, the Blocker Subsidiary and the SPV1 Subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements.

On November 8, 2024, immediately prior to the Company's election to be regulated as a BDC (the "BDC Election"), each of Willow Tree Capital Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company managed by the Adviser and Willow Tree Capital Offshore Fund, LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company managed by the Adviser merged with and into the Company (the "Merger"). After the Merger, the Company made the BDC Election, and commenced operations.

The Company’s investment objective is to maximize the total return to shareholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation. The Company generates returns primarily from interest income and fees from senior secured loans, with some capital appreciation through nominal junior capital co-investments.

The Company conducts a continuous private offering (the “Private Offering”) of shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Shares”), to accredited investors, as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) or non U.S. persons as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act, in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. The Company will hold one or more closings at which it will either accept capital commitments to purchase Shares from investors or issue Shares for immediate cash investment by the investors.

Shareholders that make capital commitments to the Company will be required to fund drawdowns to purchase the Company’s Shares up to the amount of their respective capital commitments each time the Company delivers a drawdown notice.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to Regulation S-X. This requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These consolidated financial statements reflect normal and recurring adjustments that in the opinion of the Company are necessary for the fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions included in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is an investment company for the purposes of accounting and financial reporting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”).

Table of Contents

Basis of Consolidation

As provided under ASC Topic 946 and Regulation S-X, the Company will not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. All material intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The Company consolidated the results of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries which are considered to be investment companies. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries were the SPV Subsidiary, the Blocker Subsidiary and the SPV1 Subsidiary.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investments at Fair Value

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses will be computed using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period. The Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") or, if designated pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-5”), the Adviser will determine the NAV per share quarterly. The NAV per share is equal to the value of total assets minus liabilities divided by the total number of shares of the Company's common stock outstanding at the date as of which the determination is made.

As part of the valuation process, the Board takes into account relevant factors in determining the fair value of the Company's investments, including: the estimated enterprise value of a portfolio company (i.e., the total fair value of the portfolio company’s debt and equity), the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments based on its earnings and cash flow, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, a comparison of the portfolio company’s securities to any similar publicly traded securities, and overall changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that may affect the price at which similar investments may be made in the future. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Board considers whether the pricing indicated by the external event corroborates its valuation.

The Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process, which includes, among other procedures, the following:

•With respect to investments for which market quotations are readily available, those investments will typically be valued at the bid price of those market quotations;

•With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Company's quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the respective Willow Tree valuation team. Preliminary valuations are then reviewed and discussed with the principals of Willow Tree. Separately, an independent valuation firm engaged by the Board provides third party valuation consulting services with respect to the Company's investments at least twice annually for all investments held in the portfolio for at least six months.

•Preliminary valuation conclusions will be documented and discussed with Willow Tree’s valuation committee. Agreed upon valuation recommendations will be presented to the Audit Committee;

•The Audit Committee will review the valuation recommendations and recommend values for each investment to the Board; and

•The Board will review the recommended valuations and determine the fair value of each investment.

•The Board will conduct this valuation process on a quarterly basis.

Table of Contents

The Company will apply FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company will consider its principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:

•Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.

•Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Transfers between levels, if any, will be recognized at the beginning of the reporting period in which the transfer occurred. In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, the Company will apply the valuation policy approved by the Board, which is consistent with ASC 820. Under the valuation policy, the Company will evaluate the source of the inputs, including any markets in which the Company's investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value. When an investment is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (that is, broker quotes), the Company will subject those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for treatment as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. For example, the Company, or the independent valuation firm(s), will review pricing support provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company's investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be realized. Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may be subject to contractual and other restrictions on resale. If the Company was required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.

In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected herein.

Cash

Cash represents cash on hand and demand deposits held at financial institutions. Cash equivalents include short-term highly liquid investments of sufficient credit quality that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents are held to meet short-term liquidity requirements, rather than for investment purposes. Cash and cash equivalents are held at major financial institutions and are subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) limits. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held $27.1 million and $27.6 million in cash, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had no cash equivalents held.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

Table of Contents

•Fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period.

•Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions, income or expenses.

The results of operations based on changes in foreign exchange rates are separately disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, if any. Foreign investment securities and currency translations may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.

Revenue Recognition

Interest and Dividend Income

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts, amortization of premiums and payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest. Discounts from and premiums to par value on investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment security using the effective interest method. To the extent loans contain PIK provisions, PIK interest, computed at the contractual rates, is accrued and recorded as interest income and added to the principal balance of the loan. PIK interest income added to the principal balance is generally collected upon repayment of the outstanding principal.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when interest and/or principal payments become materially past due and there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Recognition of interest income of that loan will be ceased until all principal and interest is current through payment or until a restructuring occurs, such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. However, the Company remains contractually entitled to this interest. Accrued and unpaid 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 the Company’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid or there is no longer any reasonable doubt that such principal or interest will be collected in full and, in the Company’s judgment, are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value or is in the process of collection. Accrued interest is written-off when it becomes probable that the interest will not be collected, and the amount of uncollectible interest can be reasonably estimated.

Dividend income on preferred equity is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. To the extent preferred equity contains PIK provisions, PIK dividends computed at the contractual rates are accrued and recorded as dividend income and added to the principal balance of the preferred equity. PIK dividends added to the principal balance are generally collected upon redemption of the equity. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not maintain any investments in equity securities.

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, unused, and prepayment fees associated with the Company’s investment activities. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its shareholders. Any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company would represent obligations of the Company’s shareholders and would not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

To qualify and be subject to tax as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company will need to ensure that (among other things) it satisfies certain sources of income and asset diversification requirements and distributes to its shareholders annually an amount equal to at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income” for that year, which is

Table of Contents

generally its ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses. The Company will be subject to a nondeductible excise tax on certain amounts of undistributed income.

If the Company fails to distribute in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of the amount by which capital gains exceed capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (iii) certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax (collectively, the “Excise Tax Distribution Requirements”), the Company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on the amount by which the Company does not meet the Excise Tax Distribution Requirements. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by the Company that is subject to corporate income tax for the tax year ending in that calendar year will be considered to have been distributed by year-end (or earlier if estimated taxes are paid).

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

New Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 modifies the reporting requirements for income tax disclosures related to effective tax rates and cash income taxes paid. Pursuant to ASU 2023-09, public business entities are required to disclose certain categories in the income tax rate reconciliation, as well as additional information for reconciling items that meet a specific quantitative threshold. Additionally, ASU 2023-09 requires annual disclosures of income taxes paid for all entities, including the amount of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 for public business entities (“PBEs”) and December 15, 2025 for entities other than PBEs with early adoption permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statements and concluded the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions

Formation Transactions

Prior to the Company making the BDC Election, on November 8, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Onshore Merger Agreement”) with Willow Tree Capital Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company managed by the Adviser (the “Onshore Fund”). Under this agreement, the Onshore Fund would merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Onshore Merger”). Before completing the Onshore Merger, the Adviser served as the investment adviser to the Onshore Fund. According to the Onshore Merger Agreement, the members of the Onshore Fund would receive approximately 0.99 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), for each unit of membership interest held by such members. The Onshore Merger closed on November 8, 2024, prior to the BDC Election. As a result, the Company issued 6,939,661 shares of Common Stock and acquired a portfolio of assets consisting of 96 loans to 32 borrowers (including term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolvers), cash, and other assets (collectively, the “Onshore Assets”), which had an aggregate net asset value $108.9 million.

Contemporaneously with entering the Onshore Merger Agreement, and prior to the Company making the BDC Election, on November 8, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Offshore Merger Agreement” and, together with the Onshore Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreements”) with Willow Tree Capital Offshore Fund, LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company managed by the Adviser (the “Offshore Fund”). Under this agreement, the Offshore Fund would merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Offshore Merger” and, together with the Onshore Merger, the “Mergers”). Before completing the Offshore Merger, the Adviser served as the investment adviser to the Offshore Fund. According to the Offshore Merger Agreement, the members of the Offshore Fund would receive one (1) share of Common Stock for each unit of membership interest held by such members. The Offshore Merger closed on November 8, 2024, prior to the BDC Election. As a result, the Company issued 4,803,384 shares of Common Stock and acquired a portfolio of assets consisting of 51 loans to 26 borrowers (including term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolvers), cash, and other assets (collectively, the “Offshore Assets”), which had an aggregate net asset value of $75.4 million.

Table of Contents

Following the completion of the Mergers, the Company's total assets was approximately $389.0 million, consisting of 99 loans to 33 borrowers (including term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolvers), cash, and other assets.

Investment Management Agreement

The Company is externally managed by the Adviser pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement. The Adviser is an indirect majority owned subsidiary of Willow Tree Credit Partners LP. Subject to the overall supervision of the Board, the Adviser manages the Company’s day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory services to the Company.

The Company has entered the Investment Management Agreement, dated as of November 8, 2024, with the Adviser. Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Company pays the Adviser a fee for its services. The fee consists of two components: a Management Fee (as defined below) and an Incentive Fee (as defined below). Each of the Management Fee and the Incentive Fee are payable on the terms described below.

Unless terminated earlier, the Investment Management Agreement will continue in effect for a period of two years from its effective date. It will remain in effect from year to year thereafter if approved annually by the Board or by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company's outstanding voting securities, and, in either case, if also approved by the vote of a majority of the Company's directors who are not parties to the Investment Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act).

Management Fee

The management fee (“Management Fee”) is payable quarterly in arrears and will be payable at an annual rate of 1.25% of the Company’s net assets at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. The Management Fee for any partial quarter will be prorated during the relevant calendar quarter.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $1.2 million and $0.7 million in Management Fees, respectively.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of Management Fees, were unpaid and are included in management fees payable in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Incentive Fee

The Company pays the Adviser an incentive fee (“Incentive Fee”) as set forth below. The Incentive Fee consists of two parts: an investment-income component and a capital gains component. These components are largely independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not.

Investment Income Incentive Fee

Under the investment-income component, the Company pays the Adviser an incentive fee with respect to pre-incentive fee net investment income. The investment-income component will be calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter. Payments based on pre-incentive fee net investment income will be based on the pre-incentive fee net investment income earned for the quarter.

For this purpose, “pre-incentive fee net investment income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial and consulting fees or other fees received from portfolio companies) accrued during the fiscal quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the Management Fee, expenses payable under any administration agreement and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash; provided, however, that the portion of the investment-income incentive fee attributable to deferred interest features will be paid, only if and to the extent received in cash, and any accrual thereof will be reversed if and to the extent such interest is reversed in connection with any write off or similar treatment of the investment giving rise to any deferred interest accrual, applied in each case in the order such interest was accrued. Such subsequent payments in respect of previously accrued income will not reduce the amounts payable for any quarter pursuant to the calculation of the investment-income component described above. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

Table of Contents

Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of net assets (defined as total assets less liabilities) at the end of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, will be compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.50% per quarter (6.00% annualized). The Company will pay the Adviser an investment-income incentive fee with respect to pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

(1)No investment-income incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.50%;

(2)100% of pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than or equal to 1.714% in any calendar quarter (6.857% annualized) (the portion of pre-incentive fee net investment income that exceeds the hurdle but is less than or equal to 1.714% is referred to as the “catch-up”; the “catch-up” is meant to provide the Adviser with 12.50% of pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle did not apply if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 1.714% in any calendar quarter); and

(3)12.50% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.714% in any calendar quarter (6.857% annualized) payable to the Adviser (once the hurdle is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 12.50% of all pre-incentive fee net investment income thereafter is allocated to the Adviser).

The following is a graphical representation of the calculation of the investment-income component of the incentive fee:

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (express as a percentage of the value of net assets):


0%	1.50%	1.714%
← 0% →	← 100% →	← 12.5% →

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $1.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in investment income incentive fees.

performed for the Company by such affiliate or third party. To the extent that Willow Tree outsources any of its functions, the Company will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis, without profit to Willow Tree.

The Board, including a majority of independent directors, will review the compensation paid to the Administrator to determine if the provisions of the Administrative Agreement are carried out satisfactorily and to determine, among other things, whether the fees payable under the Administrative Agreement are reasonable in light of the services provided.

Unless terminated earlier, the Administration Agreement will remain in effect for a period of two years from the date it first became effective, and will remain in effect from year-to-year thereafter if approved annually by a majority of the Board or by the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting securities and, in each case, a majority of the independent directors. The Company may terminate the Administration Agreement, without payment of any penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice. The decision to terminate the agreement may be made by a majority of the Board or the shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, the Administrator may terminate the Administration Agreement, without payment of any penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, in administration fees.

8. Net Assets

The Company has the authority to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Company issues shares of common stock in the Private Offering on an ongoing basis at an offering price generally equal to the net asset value per share. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had 26,235,272 issued and outstanding shares.

The Company issued and sold the following shares of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2026 (amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

9. Distributions and Dividend Reinvestment

The following table reflects the distributions declared on the Company’s common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (dollars in thousands except per share amounts):


Date Declared	Record Date	Payment Date	Amount Per Share		Total Amount

			$	0.40	$	9,810

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, no distributions were declared.

With respect to distributions, the Company has adopted an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP") for its shareholders. As a result, in the event of a declared cash distribution or other distribution, each shareholder that has not “opted out” of the DRIP will have their dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock rather than receiving cash distributions. Shareholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of Common Stock will be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.

Pursuant to the DRIP, the following table summarizes the amounts and shares issued to shareholders who have not opted out of the Company’s DRIP during the three months ended March 31, 2026 (amounts in thousands, except share amounts).


Payment Date	DRIP Value		DRIP Shares Issued
1/26/2026	$	7,688	465,930


	$	7,688

The Company did not issue DRIP shares to shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations per share (basic and diluted)	$	0.34	$	0.50

11. Tax Information

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not accrue any excise or other taxes fees. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company paid excise and other tax fees of $0.04 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company did not pay any excise or other tax fees.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company evaluates tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold, or uncertain tax positions, would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. It is the Company’s policy to recognize accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of provision for income taxes. Management has analyzed tax laws and regulations and their application to the Company as of March 31, 2026, inclusive of the open tax return years, and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability in the consolidated financial statements, nor does it expect any such positions to arise within the next 12 months. The Company is currently not undergoing any tax examinations.

13. Segment Reporting

The Company operates through a single operating and reporting segment with an investment objective to generate attractive risk-adjusted total returns consisting current income and of capital appreciation. The CODM, which comprises the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, assesses the performance and makes operating decisions of the Company on a consolidated basis primarily based on the Company’s net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations (“net income”). In addition to numerous other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes consolidated net income as a key metric in determining the amount of distributions to be paid to the Company’s shareholders. As the Company’s operations comprise a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

14. Subsequent Events

The Company's management evaluated subsequent events through the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements included herein. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in this Form 10-Q or would be required to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2026, except as discussed below.

On April 27, 2026, the Company issued approximately 419,089 shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the Company’s DRIP in connection with the distribution paid to shareholders on April 27, 2026.

Overview of Our Business

Willow Tree Capital Corporation (the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") was formed on June 29, 2022 as a Maryland corporation. The Company invests primarily in floating rate middle market senior secured loans. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is externally managed by Willow Tree Capital Corp Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”). The Adviser is an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC under the Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. As an externally managed BDC, we do not have any employees, and our investment and management functions are provided by an outside investment adviser and administrator under an advisory agreement and administration agreement. We pay the Adviser for investment and management services pursuant to the terms of the Investment Management Agreement. Willow Tree Credit Partners LP (the "Administrator") serves as our administrator. The Administrator provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate pursuant to the Administration Agreement. The Administrator has entered into a sub-administration agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") pursuant to which State Street will receive compensation for its services.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation. We invest primarily in primarily in floating rate middle market senior secured loans. We define “middle market” as companies with annual earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, or “EBITDA” ranging from approximately $5 million to $75 million. These loans are typically secured with a priority lien on assets. Our investment objectives are to maximize the total return to our shareholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation. To achieve our investment objective, we will leverage the Adviser's investment team’s extensive network of relationships with other sophisticated institutions to source, evaluate and, as appropriate, partner with on transactions. We generate returns primarily from interest income and fees from senior secured loans, with some capital appreciation through nominal junior capital co-investments.

Formation Transaction

Prior to the Company electing to be regulated as a BDC (the "BDC Election"), on November 8, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Onshore Merger Agreement”) with Willow Tree Capital Fund, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company managed by the Adviser (the “Onshore Fund”), under which the Onshore Fund would merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Onshore Merger”). Before completing the Onshore Merger, the Adviser served as investment adviser to the Onshore Fund. According to the Onshore Merger Agreement, the members of the Onshore Fund would receive approximately 0.99 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) for each unit of membership interest held by such members. The Onshore Merger closed on November 8, 2024, prior to the BDC Election. As a result of the Onshore Merger, the Company issued 6,939,661 shares of Common Stock, and acquired a portfolio of assets consisting of 96 loans to 32 borrowers (including term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolvers), cash and other assets (collectively, the “Onshore Assets”), which assets had an aggregate net asset value of $108.9 million.

Cayman Islands limited liability company managed by the Adviser (the “Offshore Fund”), under which the Offshore Fund would merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Offshore Merger” and, together with the Onshore Merger, the “Mergers”). Before completing the Offshore Merger, the Adviser served as investment adviser to the Offshore Fund. According to the Offshore Merger Agreement, the members of the Offshore Fund would receive one (1) share of Common Stock for each unit of membership interest held by such members. The Offshore Merger closed on November 8, 2024, prior to the BDC Election. As a result of the Offshore Merger, the Company issued 4,803,384 shares of Common Stock, and acquired a portfolio of assets consisting of 51 loans to 26 borrowers (including term loans, delayed draw term loans, and revolvers), cash and other assets (collectively, the “Offshore Assets”), which assets had an aggregate net asset value of $75.4 million.

Our Adviser monitors on an ongoing basis, the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if it is meeting its respective business plan and to assess the appropriate course of action for each portfolio company. Our Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following: (i) assessment of success in adhering to the portfolio company’s business plan and compliance with covenants; (ii) periodic or regular contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments; (iii) comparisons to our other portfolio companies in the industry, if any; (iv) attendance at and participation in board meetings or presentations by portfolio companies; and (v) review of monthly and quarterly financial statements and financial projections of portfolio companies.

Table of Contents

As part of the portfolio monitoring process, our Adviser also employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Adviser grades the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 4 no less frequently than quarterly. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account in certain circumstances the performance of the portfolio company’s business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The following risk rating scale is used:

•Investment Rating 1 is strong financial condition, trending positive;

•Investment Rating 2 is stable and performing;

•Investment Rating 3 is trending downward, but no expected principal loss; and

•Investment Rating 4 is non-accrual, possible principal impairment.

Our Adviser grades the investments in our portfolio at least each quarter and it is possible that the grade of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. All investments that carry a risk rating of 4 will be reviewed at least once per month with the Adviser's Chief Credit Officer, who is responsible for overseeing our restructuring processes. Activities relating to such investments ranges from a heightened level of interfacing with management and all other capital constituents to hiring financial and legal advisers in furtherance of a balance sheet restructuring. When deemed necessary, the Adviser professionals may participate as members or leaders of ad hoc creditors’ committees and/or be called upon to testify in bankruptcy court on behalf of a certain class of creditors. The following table shows the composition of our portfolio (excluding investments in money market funds, if any) on the 1 to 4 grading scale as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively (amounts in thousands):


	March 31, 2026				December 31, 2025
Investment Performance Rating	Fair Value		Percentage of Total		Fair Value		Percentage of Total
Grade 1	$	—	0.0	%	$	—	0.0	%
Grade 2	896,401		99.7	%	881,779		99.7	%
Grade 3	2,647		0.3	%	2,635		0.3	%
Grade 4	—		0.0	%	—		0.0	%
Total Investments	$	899,048	100.0	%	$	884,414	100.0	%

Non-Accrual Assets

Generally, when interest and/or principal payments on a loan become past due, or if we otherwise do not expect the borrower to be able to service its debt and other obligations, we will place the loan on non-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, we had no non-accrual assets.

Interest and Borrowing Expenses

Interest and other borrowing expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, were attributable to borrowings under the Credit Facility and Subscription Line (as discussed below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”). For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $8.0 million and $6.3 million in interest and borrowing expenses, respectively. Interest and borrowing expenses increased approximately $1.7 million, or 26.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from the comparable period in 2025 due to an increase in the average debt outstanding of approximately $189.1 million, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.09%.

Table of Contents

Compensation of the Adviser

We pay the Adviser an investment advisory fee for its services under the Investment Management Agreement consisting of two components: a management fee and an incentive fee. The cost of both the management fee and the incentive fee is ultimately borne by the shareholders.

Management Fee

See Note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Investment Management Agreement and the fee arrangement thereunder. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the amount of Management Fee incurred was $1.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The increase in Management Fee for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was driven by the increase in net assets period over period.

Incentive Fees

Investment Income Incentive Fee

For this purpose, “pre-incentive fee net investment income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial and consulting fees or other fees received from portfolio companies) accrued during the fiscal quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the Management Fee, expenses payable under any administration agreement and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash; provided, however, that the portion of the investment-income incentive fee attributable to deferred interest features will be paid, only if and to the extent received in cash, and any accrual thereof will be reversed if and to the extent such interest is reversed in connection with any write off or similar treatment of the investment giving rise to any deferred interest accrual, applied in each case in the order such interest was accrued. Such subsequent payments in respect of previously accrued income will not reduce the amounts payable for any quarter pursuant to the calculation of the investment-income component described above. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

(1)No investment-income incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.50%;

The following is a graphical representation of the calculation of the investment-income component of the incentive fee:

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (express as a percentage of the value of net assets)


0%	1.50%	1.714%
← 0% →	← 100% →	← 12.5% →

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $1.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in investment income incentive fees. Investment income incentive fees increased approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from the comparable period in 2025 due to a higher pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle period over period. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $1.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of incentive fees on investment income, were unpaid and are included in investment income incentive fees payable in our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee

Capital gains incentive fees accrued (reversed), but not yet payable, on a hypothetical liquidation basis under GAAP for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $(0.2) million and $0.0 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of accrued capital gains incentive fees are included in our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Unless terminated earlier, the Investment Management Agreement will continue in effect for a period of two years from its effective date. It will remain in effect from year to year thereafter if approved annually by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) or by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities, and, in either case, if also approved by the vote of a majority of the Company's directors who are not parties to the Investment Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act).

Professional Fees

Professional fees include legal, audit, tax, valuation, technology and other professional fees incurred related to the management of us. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.6 million and $0.6 million in professional fees, respectively.

Administration Fees

Administration fees represent fees paid to the Administrator for our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement. See Note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Administration Agreement and the administrative fees thereunder. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.2 million and $0.1 million of administration fees, respectively.

Other General and Administrative Expenses

Other general and administrative expenses include director fees, insurance, filing, research, our sub-administrator, subscriptions and other costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred $0.8 million and $0.4 million in other general and administrative expenses, respectively. The increase in other general and

Table of Contents

administrative expenses of approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, was driven by higher consulting fees and other operating costs incurred period over period.

Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was as follows (amounts in thousands):


	For the three months ended March 31,
	2026		2025

Foreign currency translation	(121)		—
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)	$	(1,914)	$	1,854

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded net unrealized depreciation on our current portfolio of $1.9 million. The net unrealized depreciation on the Company’s portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2026 reflected the impact of wider market credit spreads across the private credit market, as well as certain company-specific fundamental performance factors, which collectively resulted in lower fair values across the Company’s debt investments.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded net unrealized appreciation on our current portfolio of 1.9 million. The net unrealized appreciation on the Company’s current portfolio was driven by fundamental portfolio performance of investments.

Net Realized Gain

For each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not recognize any realized gains (losses).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our current cash on hand, our short-term investments, our available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, unfunded investor Capital Commitments and our anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet our cash needs for our daily operations for at least the next twelve months.

Under the 1940 Act, we are required to meet an asset coverage ratio, defined under the 1940 Act as the ratio which the value of our total assets (less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) bears to the aggregate amount of our outstanding senior securities representing our indebtedness, of at least 150% after each issuance of senior securities. Our asset coverage ratio was 185.7% and 173.0% as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Cash Flows

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we experienced a net decrease in cash in the amount of $0.5 million. During that period, operating activities provided net cash of $13.2 million, consisting primarily of collection of receivable for investments sold of $18.0 million and sales and principal repayments of investment securities of $20.6 million, which was partially offset by purchases of investments securities of $35.0 million. In addition, financing activities used net cash of $13.7 million, consisting primarily of net repayments of borrowings under the Credit Facility (as defined below) and Subscription Line (as defined below) of $39.6 million, which was partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock of $27.5 million. At March 31, 2026, we had $27.1 million of cash on hand.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we experienced a net increase in cash in the amount of 9.3 million. During that period, our operating activities used $149.1 million in cash, consisting primarily of purchases of portfolio investments of $156.0 million, which was partially offset by proceeds from sales and principal repayments of investment securities of $12.0 million. In addition, financing activities provided net cash of $158.4 million, consisting primarily of borrowings under the Credit Facility (as defined below) of $223.3 million and proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock of $50.0 million. At March 31, 2025, we had $17.4 million of cash on hand.

Borrowings under the A&R Credit Facility are considered the Company’s borrowings for purposes of complying with the asset coverage requirements under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Subscription Line

On November 8, 2024 the Company entered into a $90.0 million revolving credit facility with City National Bank, as administrative agent (the "Subscription Facility"). The Subscription Facility is a replacement of each of the Prior Onshore Subscription Facility and the Prior Offshore Subscription Facility each as defined and described below.

On November 7, 2025, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Subscription Facility which among things, (i) extended the maturity date from November 7, 2025 to November 6, 2026 and (ii) amended the definition of "Borrowing Base" from 60% of certain Unfunded Capital Commitments to 70% of such Unfunded Capital Commitments. The Subscription Facility bears interest based on either Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR plus 2.50% per annum or Prime

Table of Contents

Rate plus 1.50% per annum, at the Company’s option. The Subscription Facility also charges an unused commitment fee of 0.35% per annum on the unused available commitment during the applicable calendar quarter.

The Subscription facility is secured by (a) the Company's rights to make capital calls of the capital commitments of each of its investors and all other rights, title, interests, powers and privileges related to, appurtenant to or arising out of the Company's rights to require or demand that such investors make capital contributions to the Company, (b) the Company's rights, titles, interest and privileges in and to the capital commitments, uncalled capital commitments, pending capital calls and capital contributions made by its investors, (c) all of the Company's rights, titles, interests, remedies and privileges under the applicable organizational documents, subscription agreements and side letters (including those in accordance with each of the Onshore Fund's and the Offshore Fund's operating agreements) to make, issue notices with respect to, and enforce capital calls and to receive and enforce the funding of capital contributions; (d) the Company's rights, titles, interests, remedies and privileges under its organizational documents and subscription agreements to issue and enforce capital calls, to receive and enforce capital contributions and relating to issuing, enforcing or receiving capital calls, capital commitments or capital contributions, (e) the Company's deposit accounts at City National Bank (or any substitute account, wherever located) into which capital call proceeds are paid, together with the Company's rights, titles and interests in and to each such account, all sums or other property now or at any time on deposit therein, credited thereto or payable thereof, and all instruments, documents, certificates and other writings evidencing each such account, and (f) all proceeds of the foregoing.

Participation Agreements

On September 16, 2024, the Onshore Fund entered into a LSTA Par/Near Par Trade Confirmation in its capacity as the seller with Macquarie Bank Limited (“Macquarie”) as the buyer (the “Initial Participation”), and a related Participation Agreement for Par/Near Par Trades (the “Participation Agreement”) pursuant to which the Onshore Fund sold to Macquarie a participation in connection with a term loan held by the Onshore Fund under a credit agreement dated as of November 25, 2020 with, inter alia, Higginbotham Insurance Agency, Inc. (the “Higginbotham Loan”). On the same date, Macquarie, as the seller, and the Onshore Fund, as the buyer, entered into a LSTA Par/Near Par Trade Confirmation (the “Assignment Confirmation”) pursuant to which Macquarie agreed to sell to the Onshore Fund by a specified time period provided therein via an assignment all rights in the Higginbotham Loan which Macquarie had purchased a participation in under the Initial Participation. On November 8, 2024, immediately prior to giving effect to the Merger contemplated by the Merger Agreements, the Onshore Fund, the Company and Macquarie entered into that certain Assumption of Participation Agreement & Trade Confirmation pursuant to which the Company acknowledged that, upon the effectiveness of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreements, the Company would become the “seller” under the Participation Agreement and assume all obligations and liabilities of the Onshore Fund under the Participation Agreement, and shall become the buyer under the Assignment Confirmation and assume all obligations and liabilities of the Onshore Fund under the Assignment Confirmation. In connection therewith, the Onshore Fund agreed, on or immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Merger Transactions, to pay to Macquarie the fee accrued pursuant to the Assignment Confirmation.

On August 2, 2024, Willow Tree Capital Offshore Blocker, LLC (the “Offshore Blocker”) entered into a LSTA Par/Near Par Trade Confirmation in its capacity as the seller with Macquarie as the buyer (the “Initial Blocker Participation”), and a related Participation Agreement for Par/Near Par Trades (the “Blocker Participation Agreement”) pursuant to which the Offshore Blocker sold to Macquarie a participation in connection with a term loan held by the Offshore Blocker under a credit agreement dated as of October 23, 2020 with, inter alia, RPX Corporation (the “RPX Loan”).

The contractual maturity of such secured borrowing agreement terminated on February 6, 2025.

Distributions to Shareholders

We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually as a RIC under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intend to make the required distributions to our shareholders as specified therein. In order to maintain our tax treatment as a RIC and to obtain RIC tax benefits, we must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then we are generally required to pay income taxes only on the portion of our taxable income and gains we do not distribute (actually or constructively) and certain built-in gains. We monitor our distribution requirements with the goal of ensuring compliance with the Code. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit the payment of any level of cash distributions and our ability to make distributions will be limited by the asset coverage requirement and related provisions under the 1940 Act and contained in any applicable indenture and related supplements. In addition, in order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement applicable to RICs, we may declare a significant portion of our dividends in shares of our Common Stock instead of in cash. A shareholder generally would be subject to tax on 100% of the fair market value of the dividend on the date the dividend is received by the shareholder in the same manner as a cash dividend, even though a portion of the dividend was paid in shares of our Common Stock.

The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require us to distribute to our shareholders each year at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, or ICTI, as defined by the Code. Depending on the level of ICTI and net capital gain, if any, earned in a tax year, we may choose to carry forward income in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year and pay a 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such excess. Any such carryover income must be distributed before the end of the next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such income.

ICTI generally differs from net investment income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses. We may be required to recognize ICTI in certain circumstances in which we do not receive cash. For example, if we hold debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as having OID (such as debt instruments issued with warrants), we must include in ICTI each year a portion of the OID that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same taxable year. We may also have to include in ICTI other amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as (i) PIK interest income and (ii) interest income from investments that have been classified as non-accrual for financial reporting purposes. Interest income on non-accrual investments is not recognized for financial reporting purposes, but generally is recognized in ICTI. Because any OID or other amounts accrued will be included in our ICTI for the year of accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our shareholders in order to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements, even though we will not have received and may not ever receive any corresponding cash amount. ICTI also excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as investment gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we declared distributions of $9.8 million which were unpaid and included in the distribution payable in our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, no distributions were declared and paid.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP will require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods covered by such financial statements. We have identified investment valuation and revenue recognition as our most critical accounting estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the matters described below. These estimates are based on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A discussion of our critical accounting policies follows.

Investment Valuation

Investments at Fair Value

Section 2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act requires us to value our assets as follows: (i) the third party price for securities for which a quotation is readily available; and (ii) for all other securities and assets, fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board. A market quotation is only “readily available” to the extent that the security can be valued with Level 1 Inputs (as defined below). As a result, the Board must determine the fair value of all securities valued with Level 2 Inputs or Level 3 Inputs (each as defined below). Since most of the securities that we hold will not have readily available market quotations, we expect that the Board will be required to determine the “fair value” of the respective Company’s securities, with input from the Adviser, third-party independent valuation firms and the respective audit committee of the Board as of the end of each quarter.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith since fair value depends upon circumstances of each individual case. In general, fair value is the amount that we might reasonably expect to receive upon the current sale of the security in an arm’s length transaction. Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been obtained had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. Additionally, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available in an active market are valued at such market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or one or more broker dealers or market-makers, provided that a quotation will not be deemed readily available if it is not reliable. However, debt and equity investments closed within approximately 90 days are generally valued at cost, plus accreted discount, if applicable, which approximates fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board. Because we expect that there will not be a readily available market value for many of the investments in its respective portfolio, we expect to value most of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Board in accordance with the Investment Valuation Process listed below, which have been reviewed and approved by the Board.

Under ASC 820, we perform detailed valuations of our debt and equity investments on an individual basis, using market based, income based, and bond yield approaches as appropriate.

Under the market approach, we estimate the enterprise value of the portfolio companies in which we invest. There is no one methodology to estimate enterprise value and, in fact, for any one portfolio company, enterprise value is best expressed as a range of fair values, from which we derive a single estimate of enterprise value. To estimate the enterprise value of a portfolio company, we analyze various factors, including the portfolio company’s historical and projected financial results. Typically, private companies are valued based on multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues, or in limited cases, book value. We review various sources of transactional data, including publicly comparable companies and private mergers and acquisitions with similar characteristics. We will generally require portfolio companies to provide annual audited and quarterly and monthly unaudited financial statements, as well as annual projections for the upcoming fiscal year.

Under the income approach, we generally prepare and analyze the internal rate of return of our debt investments based on the expected future cash flow streams. Under the bond yield approach, we review bond yields of similar companies and compare such yields to the internal rate of return of our debt investments. We review various sources of transactional data,

Table of Contents

including private mergers and acquisitions involving debt investments with similar characteristics, and assess the information in the valuation process. The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

•Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access.

•Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

•Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Investment Valuation Process

The Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter in connection with determining the fair value of each of the Company’s investments:

•The Company’s quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the respective Willow Tree valuation team member.

•Preliminary valuations are then reviewed and discussed with the principals of Willow Tree.

•Separately, an independent valuation firm engaged by the Board will provide third party valuation consulting services with respect to our investments at least twice annually for all investments held in the portfolio for at least six months. In certain cases, the Adviser may determine it is not cost-effective, and as a result is not in its shareholder’s best interest, to consult with the independent financial advisory services firm on its investments. Such instances include, but are not limited to, a loan closing a few days prior to quarter-end.

•As part of the valuation process, the independent valuation firm may review the credit documents, audited financial statements, interim financial statements, financial projections, our internal credit memos, as well as other documents as necessary, for each of our investments. After reviewing the documents, the independent valuation firm conducts various analyses including (i) historical and projected financial results, (ii) cash flow and credit ratios, (iii) comparable public and private companies and transactions, (iv) current and projected financial covenants, (v) internal rate of return based upon the expected future cash flow streams, and (vi) bond yields of comparable companies. Based on these analyses, the independent valuation firm determines if the manager valuations fall within their fair value range as of the valuation date.

•The independent valuation firm will evaluate the Company’s valuation compared to its range. If there are discrepancies, they will be resolved via discussion with the Adviser.

•The Adviser’s valuation team prepares a valuation report for the audit committee of the Board.

•The audit committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee") is apprised of the preliminary valuations and the results of the independent valuation firm’s conclusion. Once resolved, the independent valuation firm issues its opinion as to whether our valuations are reasonable.

•The Audit Committee will review the preliminary valuations, and the Adviser responds and supplements the preliminary valuations to reflect any comments provided by the audit committee.

•The Audit Committee will make recommendations to the Board regarding the fair value of each investment in our portfolio; and

•The Board will discuss valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith, based on the input of the Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms, if any, and the respective audit committee, and determines the fair values of such assets.

Revenue Recognition

Interest and Dividend Income

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts, amortization of premiums and PIK interest. Discounts from and premiums to par value on investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment security using the effective interest method. To the extent loans contain PIK provisions, PIK interest, computed at the contractual rates, is accrued and recorded as interest income and added to the

Table of Contents

principal balance of the loan. PIK interest income added to the principal balance is generally collected upon repayment of the outstanding principal.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when interest and/or principal payments become materially past due and there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Recognition of interest income of that loan will be ceased until all principal and interest is current through payment or until a restructuring occurs, such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. However, we remain contractually entitled to this interest. Accrued and unpaid 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 our judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid or there is no longer any reasonable doubt that such principal or interest will be collected in full and, in our judgment, are likely to remain current. We may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value or is in the process of collection. Accrued interest is written-off when it becomes probable that the interest will not be collected, and the amount of uncollectible interest can be reasonably estimated.

Dividend income on preferred equity is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. To the extent preferred equity contains PIK provisions, PIK dividends computed at the contractual rates are accrued and recorded as dividend income and added to the principal balance of the preferred equity. PIK dividends added to the principal balance are generally collected upon redemption of the equity. As of March 31, 2026, the Company did not maintain any investments in equity securities.

Other Income

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Unrealized gains or losses primarily reflect the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized.

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, unused, and prepayment fees associated with our investment activities, as well as any fees for managerial assistance services rendered by the Company to its portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered.

Income Taxes

We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. To maintain our RIC tax election, we must, among other requirements, meet certain annual source-of-income and quarterly asset diversification requirements. We also must annually satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement.

If we fail to distribute in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of our ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of the amount by which our capital gains exceed our capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (iii) certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax (collectively, the “Excise Tax Distribution Requirements”), we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on the amount by which we do not meet the Excise Tax Distribution Requirements. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by us that is subject to corporate income tax for the tax year ending in that calendar year will be considered to have been distributed by year-end (or earlier if estimated taxes are paid).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Rule 18f-4 provides that a BDC may enter into an unfunded commitment agreement that is not a derivatives transaction, such as an agreement to provide financing to a portfolio company, if the BDC has, among other things, a reasonable belief, at the time it enters into such an agreement, that it will have sufficient cash to meet its obligations with respect to all of its unfunded commitment agreements, in each case as it becomes due. We may become a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to fund investments and to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The balance of unused commitments to extend financing as of March 31, 2026 was as follows (amounts in thousands):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to certain financial market risks, including valuation risk and interest rate fluctuations.

Valuation Risk

We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, in illiquid debt securities of private companies. These investments will generally not have a readily available market price, and we will value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with our valuation policy and procedures established by our Board. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material. See Note 2 “Summary of Significant Account Policies” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for more details on estimates and judgments made by us in connection with the valuation of our investments.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Because we have borrowed, and may from time to time borrow money to make investments, our net investment income will depend in part upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest these funds as well as our level of leverage. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income or net assets.

We regularly measure our exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate-sensitive assets to our interest rate-sensitive liabilities. Based on that review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates. The Federal Reserve reduced interest rates by 0.25% in each of September, October and December of 2025, bringing the benchmark rate to the 3.50% to 3.75% range. The Federal Reserve maintained this range at its January 2026, March 2026, and April 2026 meetings. In considering the extent and timing of additional rate cuts in the future, the Federal Reserve stated that it will carefully assess incoming data relating to inflationary pressures and the unemployment rate, the evolving economic outlook, and the balance of risks. Given the evolving economic environment and policy considerations, there can be no assurance regarding the magnitude or timing of future federal funds rate adjustments in either direction. In a high interest rate environment, our net investment income would increase due to an increase in interest income generated by our investment portfolio. However, our cost of funds would also increase, which could also impact net investment income. It is possible that the Federal Reserve's tightening cycle could result in a recession in the United States, which would likely decrease interest rates. Alternatively, in a prolonged low interest rate environment, including a reduction of base rates, such as SOFR, to zero, the difference between the total interest income earned on interest earning assets and the total interest expense incurred on interest bearing liabilities may be compressed, reducing our net interest income and potentially adversely affecting our operating results.

As of March 31, 2026, 99.9% of investments at fair value (excluding unfunded debt investments) represent floating-rate investments with a SOFR floor (includes investments bearing prime interest rate contracts) and 0.1% of our investments at fair value represent fixed-rate investments. Additionally, our senior secured revolving credit facilities are also subject to floating interest rates and are currently paid based on floating SOFR rates and prime interest rates.

The following table estimates the potential changes in net cash flow generated from interest income and expenses, should interest rates increase by 50, 100, 150 or 200 basis points, or decrease by 50, 100, 150 or 200 basis points. Interest income is calculated as revenue from interest generated from our portfolio of investments held on March 31, 2026. Interest expense is calculated based on the terms of our outstanding revolving credit facilities. For our floating rate credit facilities, we use the outstanding balance as of March 31, 2026. Interest expense on our floating rate credit facilities is calculated using the interest rate as of March 31, 2026, adjusted for the hypothetical changes in rates, as shown below. The base interest rate case assumes the rates on our portfolio investments remain unchanged from the actual effective interest rates as of March 31, 2026. These hypothetical calculations are based on a model of the investments in our portfolio, held as of March 31, 2026, and are only adjusted for assumed changes in the underlying base interest rates.

Table of Contents

Actual results could differ significantly from those estimated in the table (amounts in thousands):


Basis Point Change	Increase (decrease) in interest income		(Increase) decrease in interest expense		Net increase (decrease) in investment income
Up 200 Basis Points	$	4,440	$	(2,424)	$	2,016
Up 150 Basis Points	3,330		(1,818)		1,512
Up 100 Basis Points	2,220		(1,212)		1,008
Up 50 Basis Points	1,110		(606)		504
Down 50 Basis Points	(1,110)		606		(504)
Down 100 Basis Points	(2,220)		1,212		(1,008)
Down 150 Basis Points	(3,330)		1,818		(1,512)
Down 200 Basis Points	(4,440)		2,424		(2,016)

Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of our existing sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for changes in the credit market, credit quality, the size and composition of assets in our portfolio and other business developments that could affect our net income. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis above.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(b)Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
