The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Partnership and notes thereto appearing in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the financial statements of the Partnership included in the Form 10. In addition to historical data, this discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and financial performance based on current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those in this discussion as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those discussed in "Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors" in the Form 10.
We were formed as a Delaware limited partnership on January 6, 2026. We are sponsored by Monroe and through the Operating Manager we have access to Monroe's asset sourcing, operations, and portfolio management capabilities pursuant to an operating agreement with the Operating Manager (the "Operating Agreement").
We are a series limited partnership with series established pursuant to Sections 17-218(b) and 17-221(c) of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act (the "LP Act"). The purchase of Shares of a Series is an investment only in that particular Series and not an investment in us as a whole. In accordance with the LP Act, a series is a separate series of assets or limited partnership interests of a partnership and not a separate legal entity.
Each of Series I and Series II was formed on February 19, 2026 as a registered series of us. Each of Series I and Series II will remain in existence until its certificate of registered series has been cancelled in the manner required by the LP Act following Series I's or Series II's, as applicable, dissolution and the completion of the winding up of such Series in accordance with our limited partnership agreement (as amended from time to time, the "LP Agreement"), the applicable series agreement and Delaware law. The LP Agreement and the applicable series agreement provide that Series I or Series II will be dissolved upon (a) the adoption of a resolution by the Board approving the dissolution of Series I or Series II, as applicable, and the approval of such action by the General Partner, (b) the operations of Series I or Series II, as applicable, ceasing to constitute legal activities under the LP Act or any other applicable law (as determined by the Board), (c) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of a Series under Section 17-218(b)(12) of the LP Act, or (d) our dissolution.
We have no operating history and were formed to fund, finance and structure Asset-Backed Finance Assets. We are structured as a holding company and we conduct our operations directly and through wholly or majority-owned subsidiaries that primarily focus on Asset-Backed Finance Assets. Our principal office and place of business is at 155 N. Wacker Drive, 35th Floor, Chicago, IL 60606 and our telephone number is (312) 258-8300.
On March 11, 2026, we issued 600 shares of Class I of Series II - subsequently redesignated as Class E Shares, at the issue price of $25.00 per share to Monroe Capital Intermediate Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of the Operating Manager. The purchase of shares in a Series of the Partnership is an investment only in that particular Series and not an investment in the Partnership as a whole. At the launch of the offering of its shares, the Partnership intends to only offer and accept subscriptions for shares of Series II.
Our investment objective is to build a diversified portfolio of Asset-Backed Finance Assets that will generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns in the form of current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation across all economic cycles, targeting assets that have significant downside protection. We generally divide our Asset-Backed Finance Assets into two categories: (i) specialty finance assets, which include royalty finance, consumer finance, litigation finance and fund finance ("Specialty Finance") and (ii) hard assets, which include real estate, digital infrastructure, aircraft finance and equipment finance ("Hard Assets"). In addition, we expect that a portion of our assets will consist of certain liquid asset classes, including, but not limited to, cash and cash equivalents, U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. government agency securities, municipal securities, other sovereign debt, investment grade credit and other investments including high-yield credit, asset-backed securities, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized loan obligations, leveraged loans and/or debt of companies or assets (which may include (i) securities or loans for the Asset-Backed Finance Assets and/or (ii) funds invested in any of the foregoing managed by Monroe, its affiliates or a third-party manager) (collectively, the "Liquidity Portfolio") in order to provide us with income, to facilitate capital deployment and to provide a potential source of liquidity. These types of liquid assets may grow as a proportion of our assets at any given time due to new subscriptions, Shareholder participation in our share redemption program, distributions from, or dispositions of, Asset-Backed Finance Assets or for other reasons as our Operating Manager determines. We have significant liquidity requirements, and adverse market and economic conditions may adversely affect our sources of liquidity, which could materially and adversely affect our business operations.
Asset allocations are expected to be made primarily in (i) senior and junior secured and unsecured loans, notes, bonds, preferred equity (including preferred partnership equity), convertible debt and other securities; (ii) unitranche loans and securities; (iii) asset-backed loans, securities and other forward flow; (iv) small business loans and leases; (v) specialty finance facilities secured by pools of assets; (vi) consumer finance; (vii) litigation finance; (viii) commercial and residential real estate finance; (ix) aviation finance including leases; (x) equipment financing and leasing; (xi) structured debt and structured equity; (xii) ownership of specialty finance and asset-backed finance platforms; (xiii) digital infrastructure financings; (xiv) securitized debt and/or subordinated notes of collateralized loan obligation facilities and term transactions, asset-backed securities, and other securitized products of any kind that hold loans to corporate borrowers and other instruments and issue securities based on their underlying assets (including, without limitation, any or all series and/or tranches thereof, whether senior or junior or debt or equity) and any warehouse finance vehicles or facilities for such vehicles or products; (xv) opportunistic acquisitions or illiquid investments from Monroe-advised funds or other third-party funds caused by liquidity constraints resulting from investor redemptions and market dislocations or fund liquidations; (xvi) secondary opportunities in pooled-investment funds managed by a third-party investment adviser; (xvii) fund-level financing backed by the residual value of third-party fund assets; (xviii) private and public equity on an opportunistic basis; and (xix) capital investments in the asset-backed securities ("ABS"), residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and secondary markets. MAB will seek to take advantage of the supply and demand gap in multiple segments of the private credit markets throughout an economic cycle and leverage it to assist the Partnership with sourcing a wide range of Asset-Backed Finance Assets, in accordance with the Partnership's investment objective.
We intend to operate our business in a manner such that neither Series will be defined as an investment company, as that term is used under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act").
Results of Operations
From January 6, 2026 (date of formation) through September 30, 2026, we were in our organizational period, had not commenced our principal operations and were focused on our formation and the Form 10. Our Form 10 automatically became effective on June 12, 2026. We will be dependent upon the proceeds from our continuous private offering of our Shares on a monthly basis (the "Private Offering") in order to conduct our business. We intend to acquire Asset-Backed Finance Assets with the capital received from our Private Offering and any indebtedness that we may incur in connection with such activities.
Income
We plan to generate income primarily by building a diversified portfolio of Asset-Backed Finance Assets that will generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns in the form of current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation across all economic cycles, targeting assets that have significant downside protection. During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and the period from January 6, 2026 (date of formation) through September 30, 2026, the only income earned was on money market interest earned on cash received as a part of the initial issuance of Shares on March 11, 2026 of $134 and $251, respectively.
Expenses
Management Fee
Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, we will pay the Operating Manager a management fee (the "Management Fee"). The Management Fee is payable monthly in arrears in an amount equal to (i) 1.00% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Standard Fee Class Shares, (ii) 0.80% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Founder Share Class II Shares, (iii) 0.70% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Founder Share Class III Shares, (iv) with respect to Class WF Shares: (A) 0.65% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Class WF Shares, if the total Firm Commitment Amount (as defined below) for Class WF Shares equals to at least $75,000,000 but is less than $125,000,000, (B) 0.60% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Class WF Shares, if the Firm Commitment Amount for Class WF Shares equals to or greater than $125,000,000, and (v) with respect to Class MF Shares: (A) 0.70% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Class MF Shares, if the Firm Commitment Amount for Class MF Shares is equal to at least $50,000,000 but is less than $75,000,000, (B) 0.70% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Class MF Shares, if the Firm Commitment Amount for Class MF Shares is equal to at least $75,000,000 but is less than $125,000,000, or (C) 0.65% per annum of the month-end total assets attributable to the Class MF Shares, if the Firm Commitment Amount for Class MF Shares is equal to or greater than $125,000,000. "Firm Commitment Amount" means the aggregate initial subscription proceeds received by us for a particular class of shares.
The Operating Manager or an affiliate may rebate, waive or reduce the Management Fee charged to certain Shareholders and/or certain Share classes at the sole discretion of the Operating Manager or such affiliate. Any such rebate, waiver or reduction may be effected either by way of purchase of additional Shares by the Operating Manager or such affiliate for the Shareholder or by way of rebate to the relevant Shareholder's account. The Management Fee may alternatively, in the discretion of the Operating Manager, instead be paid in whole or in part by our subsidiaries, in which case it shall result in a change in the cash or retained earnings of such subsidiaries.
Performance Fee
So long as the Operating Agreement has not been terminated, the Operating Manager will be entitled to receive a performance fee (the "Performance Fee") equal to (i) 15.00% of the Total Return (as defined below) with respect to Standard Fee Class-S Shares, (ii) 12.00% of the Total Return with respect to Founder Share Class II Shares, (iii) 10.50% of the Total Return with respect to Founder Share Class III Shares and Class E-W Shares, (iv) a maximum of 8.50% of the Total Return with respect to Class WF Shares, and (v) a maximum of 9.75% of the Total Return with respect to Class MF Shares, in each case subject to a 6.00% Hurdle Amount and a High Water Mark with respect to such class of Shares, with a Catch-Up (each term as defined below). Such fee will accrue and be paid quarterly.
The Performance Fee will not be paid on Class E Shares, and as a result, it is an expense specific only to certain Investor Shares, Class WF Shares, Class MF Shares, and Class E-W Shares at the rates specified herein, which will result in the dilution of Investor Shares, Class WF Shares, Class MF Shares, and Class E-W Shares in proportion to the fees charged to different classes of Investor Shares, Class WF Shares, Class MF Shares, and Class E-W Shares.
Specifically, the Operating Manager will be entitled to receive a Performance Fee in an amount equal to:
For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Total Return will (i) include any appreciation or depreciation in the transactional NAV of any relevant Shares issued during the then-current calendar year but (ii) exclude the proceeds from the initial issuance of such Shares.
"Hurdle Amount" with respect to any Shares means, for any period during a calendar year, that amount that results in a 6.00% annualized Total Return on the transactional NAV of such Shares outstanding at the beginning of the then-current calendar year and such Shares issued since the beginning of the then-current calendar year, taking into account the timing and amount of all distributions accrued or paid (without duplication) on all such Shares and all issuances of any such Shares over the period and calculated in accordance with recognized industry practices. The ending transactional NAV of such Shares used in calculating the Total Return will be calculated before giving effect to any fee/accrual to the Performance Fee and applicable combined annual distribution fee and shareholder servicing fee expenses and applicable taxes; provided that the calculation of the Hurdle Amount for any period will exclude any such Shares redeemed during such period, which Shares will be subject to the Performance Fee upon redemption.
"Loss Carryforward Amount" with respect to any Shares shall initially equal zero and shall cumulatively increase by the absolute value of any negative annual Total Return with respect to such Shares and decrease by any positive annual Total Return with respect to such Shares; provided that each Loss Carryforward Amount shall at no time be less than zero; provided, further that the calculation of each Loss Carryforward Amount will exclude the Total Return related to any relevant Shares redeemed during such year, which Shares will be subject to the Performance Fee upon redemption. The effect of the Loss Carryforward Amount is that the recoupment of past annual Total Return losses will offset the positive annual Total Return for purposes of the calculation of the Performance Fee. This is referred to as a "High Water Mark."
The Operating Manager may, in its discretion and without further notice to or consent of any Shareholder, afford particular Shareholders more favorable terms with respect to the Performance Fee, and such more favorable terms may be set forth in a side letter or other similar written agreement with such Shareholder.
Selling Commissions and Ongoing Distribution and Servicing Fees
Participating broker-dealers will be entitled to receive selling commissions of up to 3.50% of the transaction price of each Standard Fee Class-S Share, Founder Share Class II-S Share and Founder Share Class III-S Share. Participating broker-dealers will receive a combined annual distribution fee and shareholder servicing fee of 0.85% per annum of the aggregate transactional NAV of our outstanding Standard Fee Class-S Shares, Founder Share Class II-S Shares and Founder Share Class III-S Shares and a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% per annum of the aggregate transactional NAV of our outstanding Class MF Shares. There will not be a combined annual distribution fee and shareholder servicing fee or upfront selling commission with respect to the Standard Fee Class-I Shares, Founder Share Class II-I Shares and Founder Share Class III-I Shares.
Monroe Shares will not incur any upfront selling costs or ongoing servicing costs.
Administration
Monroe Capital Management Advisors, LLC ("MCMA" or the "Administrator"), an affiliate of the Operating Manager, is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act") and will provide and be reimbursed for certain administrative and accounting services to us, including preparing the NAV calculation, pursuant to an administration agreement (the "Administration Agreement") dated July 17, 2026. The Administrator will provide, or oversee the performance of, administrative services for us. We will reimburse the Administrator for its costs, expenses and our allocable portion of compensation of the Administrator's personnel (including travel expenses) and the Administrator's overhead (including rent) and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement.
Organizational and Offering Expenses
We and the Series will incur organizational and offering expenses in connection with the formation and organization of the Partnership and the Series, and the offering of Shares to investors, including legal, accounting, printing, mailing and filing fees and expenses, taxes, due diligence expenses of participating broker-dealers supported by detailed and itemized invoices, costs in connection with preparing sales materials, design, website and electronic database expenses, fees and expenses of our escrow agent and transfer agent, fees to attend retail seminars sponsored by participating broker-dealers and reimbursements for customary travel, lodging and meals and other similar fees, costs and expenses but excluding upfront selling commissions and the combined annual distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees (collectively, the "Organizational and Offering Expenses"). Such Organizational and Offering Expenses shall include the salaries of employees of the Operating Manager while engaged in sales activity upon the Partnership's behalf.
Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement of the Operating Manager
We have entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement with the Operating Manager and Administrator, pursuant to which each of the Operating Manager and the Administrator may elect to pay certain of our expenses, including certain Organizational and Offering Expenses on our behalf (each, an "Expense Support").
Following any calendar month in which the Specified Expenses (as defined below) are below 1.00% of our net assets on an annualized basis, we shall reimburse the Operating Manager and Administrator, fully or partially, for the Expense Support, but only if and to the extent that Specified Expenses plus any Reimbursement Payment (as defined below) do not exceed 1.00% of our net assets at the end of each calendar month on an annualized basis, until such time as all Expense Support made by the Operating Manager and Administrator to us within five years prior to the last business day of such calendar month has been reimbursed; provided, however, if the Operating Manager and the Administrator are to only receive partial repayment of Expense Support, they shall be paid in proportion to the Expense Support outstanding of each entity relative to the aggregate outstanding Expense Support. Any payments required to be made by us in the prior sentence shall be referred to as a "Reimbursement Payment."
"Specified Expenses" means all expenses incurred in our business with the exception of (i) the Management Fee, (ii) the Performance Fee, (iii) our combined annual distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees and the special purchase vehicles, (iv) the distribution and servicing fees (including selling commissions), (v) expenses related to any investments acquired by us and a special purchase vehicle, including, without limitation, brokerage costs or other acquisition-related out-of-pocket expenses (regardless of whether the transactions are consummated), (vi) ordinary corporate operating expenses of the Partnership and special purchase vehicles, (vii) interest expenses, commitment fees, or other expenses related to any leverage incurred by us, (viii) taxes, (ix) certain insurance costs, (x) Organizational and Offering Expenses, (xi) certain non-routine items (as determined in the sole discretion of the Operating Manager) and (xii) extraordinary expenses (as determined in the sole discretion of the Operating Manager). For the period from January 6, 2026 (date of formation) to September 30, 2026, the Operating Manager had elected to bear organizational and offering expenses of Series II totaling $1,732,597 and $1,022,219, respectively, of which $573,245 of organizational expenses and $179,875 of offering expenses had been paid to, or settled directly with, the applicable vendors as of that date. None of the Expense Support has been reimbursed by the Partnership as of September 30, 2026.

Each class of Shares will pay or otherwise bear its proportionate portion of the payments, fees, costs, expenses and other liabilities (for the avoidance of doubt, including any applicable value-added tax) or obligations resulting from, related to, associated with, arising from or incurred in connection with the Series and class of Shares and, more generally, our operations (collectively, "Operating Expenses").

We and/or our operating subsidiaries expect to employ hedging in support of financing techniques or that is designed to reduce the risks of adverse movements in interest rates, securities prices, commodities prices and currency exchange rates, as well as other risks. While such transactions may reduce certain risks, such transactions themselves may entail certain other risks, including counterparty default, convergence and other related risks. Thus, while we and/or our operating subsidiaries may benefit from the use of these hedging mechanisms, unanticipated changes in interest rates, securities prices, commodities prices or currency exchange rates or other events related to hedging activities could result in a poorer overall performance for us and/or our operating subsidiaries had not entered into such hedging transactions.
Monroe Capital Intermediate Holdings, LLC, an affiliate of the Operating Manager, made an initial capital contribution of $15,000 in cash on March 11, 2026, in exchange for its member interest in Class E Shares of Series II. The purchase of shares in a Series of us is an investment only in that particular Series and not an investment in us as a whole.
We expect to generate cash primarily from (i) the net proceeds of our continuous Private Offering, (ii) any financing arrangements we may enter into in the future and (iii) any future offerings of our equity or debt securities.
Also see "Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement of the Operating Manager" above. We believe that cash provided by such means will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months and foreseeable future.
Our primary use of cash will be for (i) acquisition of Asset-Backed Finance Assets, (ii) the cost of operations (including the Management Fee and Performance Fee), (iii) debt service of any borrowings, and (iv) periodic redemptions, including under the redemption program.
As of September 30, 2026, we have not purchased or contracted to purchase any Asset-Backed Finance Assets or other assets.
As of September 30, 2026, we had not declared or paid any distributions.
Below is a discussion of the accounting policies that management believes are critical to understanding our historical and future performance. We consider these policies critical because they involve significant judgments and assumptions and require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain and because they are important for understanding and evaluating our reported financial results. Our accounting policies have been established to conform with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to use judgments in the application of such policies. These judgments will affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. With different estimates or assumptions, materially different amounts could be reported in our consolidated financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
Valuation of Portfolio Assets
Calculation of NAV
We determine the NAV of the Shares no less frequently than monthly. The Operating Manager will determine the valuations with respect to each of our assets in accordance with its valuation guidelines approved by the Board. The Administrator will use the estimated values provided as well as inputs from other sources in its calculation of our monthly NAV per Share. The NAV per Share of each class of our Shares is determined by dividing our total assets (the value of investments, plus cash or other assets, including interest and distributions accrued but not yet received) attributable to such class less the value of any liabilities (including accrued expenses or distributions) of such class, by the total number of Shares outstanding of such class.
Timing of Valuations
The value of our Asset-Backed Finance Assets will be revalued on a monthly basis for purposes of updating our monthly NAV.
We intend to disseminate monthly NAV to Shareholders through a Form 8-K filing on EDGAR, which will be available on the SEC's website at https://www.sec.gov.
Valuation Guidelines
Our Asset-Backed Finance Assets will be valued at fair value in a manner consistent with U.S. GAAP, including Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC Topic 820"), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of 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. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each acquisition while employing a valuation process that is consistently followed. Determinations of fair value involve subjective judgments and estimates.
When making fair value determinations for Asset-Backed Finance Assets that do not have readily available market prices, we will consider industry-accepted valuation methodologies, primarily consisting of an income approach and market approach. The income approach derives fair value based on the present value of cash flows that a business, or security is expected to generate in the future. The market approach relies upon valuations for comparable public companies, transactions or assets, and includes making judgments about which companies, transactions or assets are comparable. A blend of approaches may be relied upon in arriving at an estimate of fair value, though there may be instances where it is more appropriate to utilize one approach. We also consider a range of additional factors that we deem relevant, including a potential sale of the Asset-Backed Finance Assets, macro and local market conditions, industry information and the relevant Asset-Backed Finance Assets' historical and projected financial data.
At least annually, the Board, including our independent directors, will review the appropriateness of our valuation guidelines. From time to time, the Board, including our independent directors, may adopt changes to the valuation guidelines on occasions in which it has determined or in the future determines that such changes are likely to result in a more accurate reflection of estimated fair value.
Transactional NAV
Our calculation of transactional NAV will diverge from GAAP NAV because (i) the Expense Support paid by either the Operating Manager or the Administrator will be recognized as a reduction to NAV in the month we make a Reimbursement Payment, (ii) shareholder servicing fees, as applicable, are recognized as a reduction to NAV on a monthly basis as such fees are accrued, and (iii) the exclusion of tax liabilities of certain taxable subsidiaries through which we hold certain assets that are contingent upon the expected manner of the divestment of the associated underlying assets and are not expected to be recognized by us (although the current tax liabilities of any such taxable subsidiaries may be taken into account in determining the fair value of the associated underlying assets).
There were no accounting pronouncements issued during the three months ended September 30, 2026 that are expected to have a material impact on our financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
See "Results of Operations" above for our contractual obligations and commitments with payments due subsequent to September 30, 2026.
