• BlackRock TCP Capital is like **JPMorgan Chase** or **Bank of America** for private, medium-sized businesses.
• BlackRock TCP Capital is like **Blackstone** or **Apollo Global Management** for private company loans instead of equity investments.

• Debt Financing: Provides various types of loans, predominantly senior secured and unitranche, to privately held middle-market companies.
• Equity Co-Investments: Makes minority equity investments, often accompanying debt financing, in its portfolio companies.

BlackRock TCP Capital (symbol: TCPC) is a Business Development Company (BDC) that primarily provides debt and equity financing to other companies, rather than selling products or services to individuals.

TCPC's "customers" are its portfolio companies – the businesses to which it lends money or makes equity investments. These are overwhelmingly middle-market, privately-held companies. Due to the nature of its business as an investment firm, TCPC does not have "major customers" in the traditional sense of a few large companies repeatedly purchasing goods or services. Instead, its investment portfolio is diversified across numerous private companies.

Therefore, it's not possible to list specific public company symbols as major customers, as TCPC's core business is investing in private entities. TCPC primarily serves:

• Middle-market Companies: Businesses that are generally too large for venture capital and too small to efficiently access the public debt or equity markets. These companies span a wide range of industries.
• Privately-held Companies: The vast majority of TCPC's investments are in private entities, which do not have public stock symbols.
• Companies Seeking Capital: These businesses typically require capital for various purposes, including growth initiatives, acquisitions, recapitalizations, or refinancing existing debt. TCPC provides various forms of capital, such as senior secured loans (first and second lien), subordinated debt, and equity co-investments.

1. Enhanced Portfolio Quality and Reduced Non-Accruals: The company's focus on improving the credit quality of its investment portfolio and successfully resolving challenged positions is a significant driver. A reduction in non-accrual loans, which decreased to 3.5% of the portfolio at fair value in Q3 2025 from 5.6% at the end of 2024, directly contributes to more consistent interest income and minimizes potential losses, thereby supporting revenue stability and growth.
2. Increased Deal Flow and Selective Capital Deployment: BlackRock TCP Capital has reported an increase in deal flow, with a 20% rise in reviewed deals and a 40% increase in deals advancing to the screening stage in Q3 2025. This expanded pipeline allows for the selective deployment of capital into high-quality investment opportunities, particularly in first lien, floating-rate loans to middle-market borrowers. This strategic allocation to companies with strong fundamentals and long-term growth potential is expected to generate consistent and potentially higher interest income.
3. Portfolio Diversification: The company is actively diversifying its portfolio by making numerous new investments and reducing the average position size. For instance, in Q3 2025, TCPC invested $241 million in 31 new and existing portfolio companies, decreasing the average position size to $7.8 million from $11.7 million at the end of 2024. This strategy mitigates concentration risks and enhances overall portfolio stability, which can lead to more reliable and diversified revenue streams. The focus on less-cyclical industries such as software, financial services, and professional services further supports this diversification and aims for economic resilience.
4. Strategic Partnerships and Platform Expansion: New initiatives, including a partnership with HPS and the launch of a Private Financing Solutions platform, are aiding BlackRock TCP Capital in remaining selective in its investments and supporting income generation. These strategic expansions can open new avenues for investment and revenue generation by leveraging broader market access and specialized financing solutions.
5. Favorable Interest Rate Environment for Floating Rate Loans: With 89% of its portfolio invested in senior secured, floating-rate debt, TCPC is well-positioned to benefit from a stable or rising interest rate environment. While the weighted average annual effective yield decreased slightly in Q3 2025, the predominant floating-rate nature of its loans means that as benchmark interest rates increase, the interest income generated from its portfolio companies would also rise, contributing to revenue growth.
