Runway Growth Finance Corp. (RWAY) reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, revealing a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $16.8 million, compared to $8.3 million in the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the company experienced a net decrease in net assets of $18.7 million, down from a net increase of $20.3 million in the prior year. The net asset value per share decreased to $13.66 from $13.79 at the end of the previous fiscal period, reflecting a decline in total net assets to $498.9 million from $514.9 million.
Total investment income for the second quarter was $35.1 million, slightly up from $34.2 million in the same quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher payment-in-kind (PIK) interest income, which rose to $4.0 million from $2.3 million year-over-year. However, total investment income for the first half of 2025 fell to $70.5 million from $74.2 million in the prior year, largely due to a decrease in cash interest income attributed to falling interest rates. Operating expenses increased to $21.2 million from $19.6 million, primarily due to higher interest and debt financing expenses.
In terms of operational developments, Runway Growth Finance Corp. had investments in 54 companies as of June 30, 2025, down from 57 at the end of 2024. The company funded $34.4 million in new portfolio companies and $19.6 million in existing ones during the first half of 2025. The fair value of the investment portfolio decreased to $1.025 billion from $1.077 billion, with senior secured loans comprising the majority of the portfolio at 91.9%. The company also reported a dollar-weighted annualized yield of 15.4% for the second quarter.
The company’s debt obligations as of June 30, 2025, totaled $515.9 million, down from $552.3 million at the end of 2024. The credit facility outstanding was $259.0 million, with a total commitment of $550.0 million. The company’s asset coverage ratio remained strong at 195%, indicating compliance with regulatory requirements. Looking ahead, Runway Growth Finance Corp. anticipates continued focus on generating cash flows from operations and maintaining sufficient liquidity to support its investment activities and commitments. The company has also declared a regular distribution of $0.33 per share and a supplemental distribution of $0.03 per share, payable in September 2025.
