Important Disclosure Information

Data is as of May 31, 2026, unless otherwise indicated. Returns for periods greater than one year are annualized. Past performance does not predict future returns and there can be no assurance that the fund will achieve results to those of any of Blackstone Credit & Insurance’s prior funds or be able to implement its strategy or achieve its investment objectives, including due to an inability to access sufficient investment opportunities.

Use of Leverage. BCRED intends to borrow money. If returns on such investment exceed the costs of borrowing, investor returns will be enhanced. However, if returns do not exceed the costs of borrowing, BCRED performance will be depressed. This includes the potential for BCRED to suffer greater losses than it otherwise would have. The effect of leverage is that any losses will be magnified. The use of leverage involves a high degree of financial risk and will increase BCRED’s exposure to adverse economic factors such as rising interest rates, downturns in the economy or deteriorations in the condition of the Investments. This leverage may also subject BCRED and its Investments to restrictive financial and operating covenants, which may limit flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions. For example, leveraged entities may be subject to restrictions on making interest payments and other distributions.

Reflects Blackstone Credit & Insurance’s views and beliefs. Past performance does not predict future returns and there can be no assurance that any proposed Blackstone Credit & Insurance fund or strategy will be able to implement its investment strategy, achieve its investment objectives or avoid significant losses.
Annualized Distribution Rate reflects June’s distribution annualized and divided by last reported NAV from May. On June 23, BCRED announced that it will be lowering its regular monthly distribution from $0.20 per share to $0.18 per share (Class I) beginning with the July distribution. The new distribution represents an annualized distribution rate of 9.0% for Class I shares, based on the last reported NAV from May. Past performance does not predict future returns. Distributions have been and may in the future be funded through sources other than net investment income. See BCRED’s prospectus. Please visit the Shareholders page on BCRED’s website for notices regarding distributions subject to Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. We cannot guarantee that we will make distributions, and if we do we may fund such distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations, including the sale of assets, borrowings, return of capital, or offering proceeds, and although we generally expect to fund distributions from cash flow from operations, we have not established limits on the amounts we may pay from such sources. As of May 31, 2026, 100% of inception to date distributions were funded from net investment income or realized short-term capital gains, rather than a return of capital. A return of capital (1) is a return of the original amount invested, (2) does not constitute earnings or profits and (3) will have the effect of reducing the basis such that when a shareholder sells its shares the sale may be subject to taxes even if the shares are sold for less than the original purchase price. Distributions may also be funded in significant part, directly or indirectly, from temporary waivers or expense reimbursements borne by the Adviser or its affiliates, that may be subject to reimbursement to the Adviser or its affiliates. The repayment of any amounts owed to our affiliates will reduce future distributions to which you would otherwise be entitled.
Inception date for Class I and Class S shares: January 7, 2021. Inception date for Class D shares: May 1, 2021. Total Net Return is calculated as the change in NAV per share during the period, plus distributions per share (assuming dividends and distributions are reinvested) divided by the beginning NAV per share. Returns greater than one year are annualized. All returns are derived from unaudited financial information and are net of all BCRED expenses, including general and administrative expenses, transaction related expenses, management fees, incentive fees, and share class specific fees, but exclude the impact of early repurchase deductions on the repurchase of shares that have been outstanding for less than one year. Growth of $100k calculation is based on the Total Net Return which is calculated based on the change in NAV per share during the period, plus distributions per share (assuming dividends and distributions are reinvested). Past performance does not predict future returns. Class D and Class S listed as (With Upfront Placement Fee) reflect the returns after the maximum upfront placement fees. Class D and Class S listed as (No Upfront Placement Fee) exclude upfront placement fees. Class I does not have upfront placement fees. The returns have been prepared using unaudited data and valuations of the underlying investments in BCRED’s portfolios which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for BCRED’s NAV. Valuations based on unaudited reports from the underlying investments may be subject to later adjustments, may not correspond to realized value and may not accurately reflect the price at which assets could be liquidated.

At the time of underwrite for each investment in BCRED’s debt portfolio. Average loan-to-value represents the net ratio of loan-to-value for each portfolio company, weighted based on the fair value of total applicable debt investments. Includes all debt investments for which fair value is determined by the Board of Trustees in conjunction with a third-party valuation firm and excludes quoted investments and asset-based investments. Loan-to-value at underwrite is calculated as the net debt through each respective loan tranche divided by the estimated enterprise value of the portfolio company at the time of underwrite.
Assumes the maximum amount of upfront placement fees that selling agents may charge (1.5% Class D and 3.5% for Class S).
Morningstar Medalist Rating. Morningstar assigned BCRED a Bronze Medalist Rating on May 6, 2026. The Morningstar Medalist Rating is the summary expression of Morningstar’s forward looking analysis of investment strategies as offered via specific vehicles using a rating scale of Gold, Silver, Bronze, Neutral, and Negative. The Medalist Ratings indicate which investments Morningstar believes are likely to outperform their Morningstar Category average on a risk adjusted basis over time. Medalist Ratings are based on Morningstar’s evaluation of three fundamental pillars (People, Parent, and Process) and the Medalist Rating Price Score. The rating was created and tabulated by Morningstar, Inc., an independent third party, and is not based on the experience of any client or investor. When analysts directly cover a vehicle, they assign the fundamental pillar ratings based on their qualitative assessment, subject to the oversight of the Analyst Rating Committee, and monitor and reevaluate them approximately once a year. When vehicles are covered either indirectly by analysts or by algorithm, the ratings are assigned monthly.
