All data as of December 31, 2025, unless otherwise noted. Past performance does not predict future returns. There can be no assurance that BCRED will achieve its investment objectives or avoid substantial losses. Represents Blackstone Credit and Insurance’s views and beliefs as of the date appearing on this material only, which is subject to change.
 
1. Annualized Distribution Rate reflects January 2026’s distribution annualized and divided by last reported NAV from December 2025. Distributions are not guaranteed. 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 December 31, 2025, 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 Blackstone Credit BDC Advisors LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) or its affiliates, that may be subject to reimbursement to the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates. The repayment of any amounts owed to our affiliates will reduce future distributions to which you would otherwise be entitled.

2. 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 net asset value (“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. Inception-to-date (“ITD”) total return for Class S (no/with upfront placement fee): 9.0%/8.2%. ITD total return for Class D (no/with upfront placement fee): 9.2%/8.9%. All returns shown 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. Past performance does not predict future returns. Class S and Class D listed as (With Upfront Placement Fee or Brokerage Commissions) reflect the returns after the maximum upfront placement fees. Class S and Class D listed as (No Upfront Placement Fee or Brokerage Commissions) 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 portfolio, which are estimates of fair value and form the basis for BCRED’s NAV. Valuations based upon 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.

3. As of December 31, 2025. Represents total investments at fair value.

4. Based on the enterprise value at close for each applicable investment. Includes all debt investments within BCRED’s software portfolio (as classified under the GICS Industry level) for which fair value is determined by the Board in conjunction with a third-party valuation firm and excludes both asset-based investments and quoted investments. Average enterprise value is weighted based on the fair value of total applicable investments as of December 31, 2025. The number is presented for illustrative purposes and does not reflect actual realized proceeds to BCRED or to the equity sponsor or the company, and there can be no assurance that realized proceeds received by Blackstone or any investor in a Blackstone fund will be increased as a result. Currency fluctuations may have an adverse effect on the value, price or income and costs of our portfolio companies and investments which may increase or decrease as a result of changes in exchange rates.

5. Average loan-to-value represents the net ratio of loan-to-value for each portfolio company in BCRED’s software portfolio (as classified under the GICS Industry level) weighted based on the fair value of total applicable investments as of December 31, 2025. Includes all debt investments within BCRED’s software portfolio for which fair value is determined by the Board in conjunction with a third-party valuation firm and excludes both asset-based investments and quoted investments. Loan-to-value is calculated as the total net debt through each respective loan divided by the estimated enterprise value of the portfolio company at close. Amounts have not been independently verified by BCRED and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. Accordingly, BCRED makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information.

6. Based on the subordinated capital at close for each applicable investment. Includes all debt investments within BCRED’s software portfolio (as classified under the GICS Industry level) for which fair value is determined by the Board in conjunction with a third-party valuation firm and excludes both asset-based investments and quoted investments. Average subordinated capital is weighted based on the fair value of total applicable investments as of December 31, 2025. For BCRED’s total private debt portfolio, the average subordinated capital at close is over $2 billion. Includes all debt investments within BCRED’s debt portfolio for which fair value is determined by the Board in conjunction with a third-party valuation firm and excludes both asset-based investments and quoted investments. Average subordinated capital is weighted based on the fair value of total applicable investments as of December 31, 2025.

8. 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 net asset value (“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. Inception-to-date (“ITD”) total return for Class S (no/with upfront placement fee): 9.0%/8.2%. ITD total return for Class D (no/with upfront placement fee): 9.2%/8.9%.

9. Private credit market exhibited average LTM EBITDA Growth of 5%, based on issuer companies of loans in the Lincoln International Private Market Database as of September 30, 2025, which is latest available data.

10. Represents LTM EBITDA Growth year-over-year and generally excludes debt investments that funded after December 31, 2024. Includes all debt investments for which fair value is determined by the Board in conjunction with a third-party valuation firm and excludes both asset-based investments and quoted investments. BCRED amounts are weighted on fair market value of each respective investment. BCRED amounts were derived from portfolio company financial statements that are continuously received and may be updated; accordingly, growth figures may be based on prior period EBITDA amounts that were not available or, in the case of recently-funded deals, not applicable in the prior period. Third-party figures (and corresponding BCRED amounts) have not been independently verified by BCRED and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. Accordingly, BCRED makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a particular portfolio company, EBITDA is generally defined as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, and amortization over the LTM. EBITDA growth year-over-year may reflect some inorganic growth due to mergers and acquisitions (M&A).

11. Interest coverage ratio (“ICR”) is estimated as the ratio of average LTM EBITDA, to cash interest paid over the last 12 months for each respective portfolio company. Includes all debt investments (excluding ARR loans) for which fair value is determined by the Board in conjunction with a third party valuation firm and excludes both asset-based investments and quoted investments. Amounts derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial statements, have not been independently verified by BCRED, may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount, and are generally about 90 days in arrears. Accordingly, BCRED makes no representation or warranty in respect of this information. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a particular portfolio company, LTM EBITDA is generally defined as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization over the preceding 12-month period. Currency fluctuations may have an adverse effect on the value, price or income and costs of our portfolio companies and investments which may increase or decrease as a result of changes in exchange rates. We believe Q1’24 reflects a more normalized environment and accurate depiction of portfolio companies’ ICRs following volatility and peak rates in 2023.
