This 8-K filing formalizes the terms for an At-The-Market (ATM) equity offering, enabling Kayne Anderson BDC to raise up to $150 million by selling common stock. This program operates under the $500 million mixed-shelf registration statement filed on March 31, 2026. While the ATM provides financial flexibility and access to capital, it also introduces potential dilution for existing shareholders as shares are sold into the market. A key protective term for BDC investors is that the offering price per share will not be less than the company's net asset value (NAV) per share at the time of sale, which helps prevent immediate book value dilution. The actual timing and amount of sales will depend on market conditions and the company's capital needs.
