Investment Objective and Policy

The investment objective of the Company is to generate attractive, risk-adjusted returns, principally through income distributions.

The investment policy of the Company is to invest (either directly and/or indirectly through the Master Funds) in US, UK and European CLOs or other vehicles and structures which provide exposure to portfolios consisting primarily of US and European floating-rate senior secured loans and which may include non-recourse financing.

The Company implements its investment policy by:

    1. with respect to those assets of the Company attributable to the Realisation Shares: investing in Master Fund II; and
    1. with respect to those assets of the Company attributable to the 2021 Shares and any future C Shares: investing in Master Fund III.

If at any time the Company holds any uninvested cash, the Company may also invest on a temporary basis in the following Qualifying Short Term Investments:

  • cash or cash equivalents;
  • government or public securities (as defined in the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") Rules);
  • money market instruments;
  • bonds;
  • commercial paper; or
  • other debt obligations with banks or other counterparties having a single A rating or (if a fund) investing with no leverage in assets rated at least single A, according to at least one internationally recognised rating agency selected by the Board of Directors (the "Board") (which may or may not be registered in the EU).

The aggregate amount deposited or invested by the Company with any single bank or other nongovernment counterparty (including their associates) shall not exceed 20% of the NAV in aggregate, and also of the NAV of each share class, at the time of investment. The Company cannot make any other types of investment without shareholder consent to a change of investment policy by ordinary resolution at a general meeting of the Company.

Chair's Statement

Cash flow and dividends

The CLOs in which the Master Funds hold controlling interests in the equity tranches have experienced an annualised default rate since inception of 0.37%7 and had CCC and below exposure of 5.00%8 as at 30 June 2025, both well below the market's average of 1.68% and 6.84%9 , respectively. As a result of the strong fundamental performance of the portfolio, all CLO equity and debt investments made their scheduled distributions in the first half of 2025.

The Company paid 4.0 US cents in dividends per 2021 Share in the first half of 2025. The dividends are well-covered by the distributions received by the Master Funds. The dividend yield for the 2021 Shares was 15.0% as of the end of the period, based on the closing share price.10

Chair's Statement (continued)

Outlook and Material Events

The Company remains committed to the share buyback programme announced in September 2022, supported by the Adviser's commitment to reinvest 25% of management fees should the shares trade at a discount. However, share buybacks have not been executed since the period end as the 2021 Shares have been trading at prices close to NAV. In response to market demand the Company has issued 1.055 million 2021 Shares from Treasury since the period end to the date of the report.

As Master Fund III neared the end of its commitment period in June 2025, the Company consulted shareholders and received strong support for continuing the investment. In response, the Company expects to make announcements imminently regarding a proposal to extend Master Fund III as an evergreen structure and bring forward the Company's continuation vote from 2028 to 2025. This change aims to maximise value for shareholders and take advantage of new opportunities in the evolving CLO market.

Investment Adviser's Report (continued)

Portfolio Review (continued)

In March 2025, Master Fund III acquired US\$22.2 million of newly issued subordinated notes of ALLEG 2025-1. The potential total return for this investment, as estimated by the General Partner of the Master Fund III, is 16-20% per annum.

In April 2025, Master Fund II sold its OHECP 2015-4 mezzanine investment. Master Fund II also sold two US CLO Equity positions (ROCKT 2021-2 Sub and ALLEG 2021-1 Sub).

In May 2025, Master Fund III acquired three European single-B positions through two new issues (SNDPE 15 F & ARESE 22 F) and one reset (AVOCA 15 F).

In June 2025, Wollemi acquired, in the primary market, 83% of the subordinated notes and the majority of the single-B rated notes of one new European CLO, Fair Oaks Loan Funding VI (which is managed by Fair Oaks Capital Limited). The potential total return for this investment, as estimated by the General Partner, is 14% (US\$ hedged) per annum. Additionally in June 2025, Master Fund II sold two US CLO Equity positions, POST 2018-1 and WELF 2021-2. Master Fund II also sold three Single-B positions: DRSLF 2017- 49, DRSLF 2017-53, and SYMP 2018-19.

All CLO equity investments (including reset and refinancings) completed since July 2019 have included ESG exclusion criteria in the CLO's documentation. CLO investments subject to ESG investment criteria represented 95.5% of all CLO equity investments in the portfolio as of the end of June 2025.14

Investment Adviser's Report (continued)

Portfolio Review (continued)

In Fair Oaks' opinion, the focus on originating and controlling CLO subordinated note investments has resulted in superior fundamental performance. Lower fees in primary investments also allowed the construction of more conservative portfolios with no need to stretch for yield. As a result, the Master Funds have benefitted from below-average exposure to sectors such as retail or energy, which has been particularly beneficial in light of recent volatility and macroeconomic events.

Figure 1.10 compares the annualised equity distributions received by Master Fund II with the US market median. While there is some variability in distributions from quarter to quarter due to differing payment periods, equity distributions in October 2024, January 2025 and April 2025 were impacted by the presence of amortising (now liquidated) CLOs in the Master Fund II portfolio.

Headroom to the overcollateralisation test in the Master Fund's CLOs, which determines whether distributions may be temporarily diverted from the CLO equity, remains sufficient, reducing the potential for any future cash-flow diversion.

All CLO equity positions in the portfolio benefit from at least 4% test headroom. Assuming 70% recovery in case of default, it would require in excess of 13% cumulative defaults to generate the par loss required to erode 4% headroom, before considering any positive effect from reinvestment at prices below par. 20

US Loan Market Update

The trailing 12-month US loan default rate increased from 0.91% in December 2024 to 1.11% in June 2025. The US distress ratio (loans trading below 80c, a potential indicator of the direction of future defaults) increased from 4.64% in December 2024 to 5.13% in June 2025.21

According to Pitchbook LCD's December 2024 quarterly survey of market participants, the expectation is that the US loan default rate, at the end of 2025, will be between 1.0% and 1.5% in the US. Forecasts from rating agencies and bank research range from 2.0% to 6.0% but the definition of default in these reports varies.22

The average bid price of the LSTA US leveraged loan index was 97.07c at the end of June 2025, compared to 97.33c at the end of 2024.

US CLO Market Update

US primary CLO new issuance was US\$99bn in the first half of 2025, compared to US\$101bn in the first half of 2024. Refinancings and resets reached record levels, totalling US\$49bn (121 deals) and US\$108bn (206 deals) respectively in H1-25. 32 These figures surpass the totals for the same time period in 2024, which saw US\$39bn (103 deals) and US\$73bn (152 deals). As a result, the forecasts made at the end of 2024 for CLO new issuance in 2025 (US\$115-200bn) and refi/reset volume in 2024 (US\$100-300bn) are likely to be exceeded. 33

Figure 1.20 – US CLO new issue volume32

The trend of CLO spread tightening, seen in 2023 and 2024, continued in January and February 2025 but was interrupted in March and April as broader market volatility related to US tariff announcements led to a temporary widening of spreads. CLO spreads tightened again during May and June 2025 but had not regained their year-to-date lows by the end of June.

The European CLO market saw €30bn in new issuance in the H1-2025, a record first-half volume up 19% from €24bn in H1-2024. In the same period, refinancings totalled €1bn (5 deals) and resets reached €19bn (45 deals).36 Net issuance of €21bn in H1-2025 is just shy of the predicted volume net European CLO issuance of €25bn for the full year. 37

European CLO spreads followed a similar pattern to US CLO spreads in the first half of 2025, with spreads tightening in January and February, widening in March and April when tariff announcements caused broader market volatility and then resumed their tightening trend in May and June.

Outlook

We believe that the Company and the Master Funds are well positioned to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns in the second half of 2025:

  • Stable and attractive dividend yield: current dividend yield of 15.0%.39
  • Existing, high-quality portfolio: all CLO equity and debt investments made their scheduled distributions in the first half of 2025.
  • Strong sourcing ability: the Master Funds benefit from strong, long-term relationships with CLO managers, including preferential access to Fair Oaks-managed CLOs.
  • Strong alignment of interest: ongoing reinvestment of 25% of quarterly management fees whenever the Company trades at any discount to NAV.
  • Supportive technicals: high new issuance volumes are being balanced by amortisation of older CLOs and strong and growing investor demand, and we expect CLO financing rates to continue supporting new CLO equity investments.

We continue to believe that the high-quality portfolio of primarily first-lien, senior secured loans with attractive term, non-mark-to-market financing represents one of the most attractive risk-adjusted opportunities available to investors in the current market environment.

Independent Review Report to Fair Oaks Income Limited

Conclusion

We have been engaged by Fair Oaks Income Limited (the "Company") to review the unaudited condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2025 of the Company, which comprises the unaudited condensed statement of financial position, the unaudited condensed statement of comprehensive income, the unaudited condensed statement of changes in shareholders' equity, the unaudited condensed statement of cash flows and the related explanatory notes.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the unaudited condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2025 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules ("the DTR") of the UK's Financial Conduct Authority ("the UK FCA").

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK) 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity ("ISRE (UK) 2410") issued by the Financial Reporting Council for use in the UK. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. We read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and consider whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed in an audit as described in the Scope of review section of this report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest that the directors have inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that the directors have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern that are not appropriately disclosed.

This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with ISRE (UK) 2410. However future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern, and the above conclusions are not a guarantee that the Company will continue in operation.

Directors' responsibilities

The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the interim financial report in accordance with the DTR of the UK FCA.

As disclosed in note 2, the annual financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. The directors are responsible for preparing the unaudited condensed set of financial statements included in the half-yearly financial report in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

In preparing the half-yearly financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the halfyearly financial report based on our review. Our conclusion, including our conclusions relating to going concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive than audit procedures, as described in the scope of review paragraph of this report.

Independent Review Report to Fair Oaks Income Limited (continued)

The purpose of our review work and to whom we owe our responsibilities

This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with the terms of our engagement letter to assist the Company in meeting the requirements of the DTR of the UK FCA. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company those matters we are required to state to it in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have reached.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

For the six-month period ended 30 June 2025

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation and Statement of Compliance

These Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements ("Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as required by DTR 4.2.4R, the Listing Rules of the LSE and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

They do not include all the information and disclosures required in Annual Financial Statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's last Annual Audited Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

The accounting policies and methods of computations applied in these Financial Statements are consistent with those applied in the last Annual Audited Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

These Financial Statements were authorised for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on 29 September 2025.

Expenses and non-investment assets and liabilities were apportioned to 2021 Shares and to Realisation Shares based on the assets under management of the respective share class at the date of the transaction and income was based on the share classes' respective ownership of the Master Fund II and Master Fund III. At 30 June 2025, expenses and cash payments are apportioned 89.84% to 2021 Shares and 10.16% to Realisation Shares (30 June 2024 apportioned 88.31% to 2021 Shares and 11.69% to Realisation Shares).

Going Concern

The Directors have assessed the financial position of the Company as at 30 June 2025 and the factors that may impact its performance and continuance (including the potential impacts on markets and supply chains of further changes in US trade policy) in the forthcoming year.

Changes in US trade policy

The imposition of import tariffs by the US administration has had a negative impact on the profitability for some US loan issuers, which will face higher input costs, and some European loan issuers, who may experience lower export sales to the US. The precise impacts are difficult to assess given the continuing uncertainty over US policy and the complexity of international supply chains.

The Company's Investment Adviser continues to closely monitor the situation, and its current assessment is that the Master Funds' portfolios' exposure to the imposition of US tariffs is relatively limited and thus the impact on the Company's performance is not expected to be significant.

Following due consideration and after a review of the Company's holdings in cash and cash equivalents, investments and a consideration of the income deriving from, and the viability of, the investment in the Master Funds the Directors believe that it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Financial Statements, as the Company has adequate financial resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due.

Significant judgements and estimates

There have been no changes to the significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions from those applied in the Company's Audited Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

For the six-month period ended 30 June 2025

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

New Accounting Standards and interpretations adopted in the reporting period

The following standards and interpretations have been applied where relevant in these Financial Statements:

• Amendments IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability, effective for periods commencing 1 January 2025.

The adoption of this standard has not had a material impact on the Financial Statements of the Company.

New Accounting Standards and interpretations applicable to future reporting periods

  • IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows: Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards Volume 11 Cost method, effective for periods commencing 1 January 2026.
  • Amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments, Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11 - Gain or loss on derecognition and Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity, effective for periods commencing 1 January 2026.
  • Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments: Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments, Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11 (Derecognition of lease liabilities and Transaction price) and Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity, effective for periods commencing 1 January 2026.
  • IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements: Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards Volume 11 - Determination of a 'de facto agent', effective for periods commencing 1 January 2026.
  • IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements: This Standard replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. It carries forward many requirements from IAS 1 unchanged, effective for periods commencing 1 January 2027. The new accounting standard introduces the following key new requirements:
    • Entities are required to classify all income and expenses into five categories in the statement of profit and loss, namely operating, investing, financing, discontinued operations and income tax categories. Entities are also required to present a newly-defined operating profit subtotal. Entities net profit will not change as a result of applying IFRS 18.
    • Management-defined performance measures ("MPMs") are disclosed in a single note in the financial statements.
    • Enhanced guidance is provided on how to group information in the financial statements.
    • All entities are required to use the operating profit subtotal as the starting point for the statement of cash flows when presenting operating cash flows under the indirect method.

The Company is still in the process of assessing the impact of the new accounting standard, particularly with respect to the structure of the Company's statement of profit or loss, the statement of cash flows and the additional disclosures required for MPMs.

• IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: IFRS 19 permits eligible subsidiaries to use IFRS Accounting Standards with reduced disclosures. Applying IFRS 19 will reduce the costs of preparing subsidiaries' financial statements while maintaining the usefulness of the information for users of their financial statements, effective for periods commencing 1 January 2027.

These standards, amendments or interpretations, except for IFRS18, are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods or on foreseeable future transactions.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

For the six-month period ended 30 June 2025

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Segmental Reporting

The Board has considered the requirements of IFRS 8 – "Operating Segments". The Company has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Investment Adviser under which the Investment Adviser is responsible for the management of the Company's investment portfolio, subject to the overall supervision of the Board.

Subject to its terms and conditions, the Investment Advisory Agreement requires the Investment Adviser to manage the Company's investment portfolio in accordance with the Company's investment guidelines as in effect from time to time, including the authority to purchase and sell securities and other investments and to carry out other actions as appropriate to give effect thereto.

However, the Board retains full responsibility to ensure that the Investment Adviser adheres to its mandate. Moreover, the Board is fully responsible for the appointment and/or removal of the Investment Adviser. Accordingly, the Board is deemed to be the "Chief Operating Decision Maker" of the Company.

In the Board`s opinion, the Company is engaged in a single segment of business, being investments into the Master Funds. Segment information is measured on the same basis as that used in the preparation of the Company's Financial Statements.

The Company receives no revenue from external customers, nor holds any non-current assets, in any geographical area other than Guernsey.

3. DIVIDENDS

The Company's policy is to declare dividends to 2021, and Realisation shareholders as follows:

The Company intends to pay dividends to holders of Realisation Shares representing an amount in aggregate at least equal to the gross income from investments received by the Company in the relevant financial period attributable to the Realisation Shares' interest in Master Fund II and Qualifying Short Term Investments, less a proportionate share of the expenses of the Company.

3. DIVIDENDS (continued)

Under Guernsey law, companies can pay dividends in excess of accounting profit provided they satisfy the solvency test prescribed by the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. The solvency test considers whether a company is able to pay its debts when they fall due, and whether the value of a company's assets is greater than its liabilities. The Company passed the solvency test for each dividend paid. Total dividends payable as at 30 June 2025 were US\$nil (31 December 2024: US\$nil).

4. FINANCIAL ASSETS AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT OR LOSS (continued)

IFRS 13 requires that a fair value hierarchy be established that prioritises the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under IFRS 13 are set as follows:

  • Level 1: inputs that are quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical instruments;
  • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using: quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.
  • Level 3: inputs that are unobservable. This category includes all instruments for which the valuation technique includes inputs not based on observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument's valuation. This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments but for which significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorised is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. For this purpose, the significance of an input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety. If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustment based on unobservable inputs, that measurement is a Level 3 measurement. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgement, considering factors specific to the asset or liability.

The determination of what constitutes 'observable' requires significant judgement. Observable data is considered to be that market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The following table analyses within the fair value hierarchy the Company's financial assets (by class, excluding cash and cash equivalents, prepayments, distributions receivable, dividends payable and other payables) measured at fair value:

Alternative Performance Measures used in the Annual Report

Total NAV return

Total NAV return is a calculation showing how the NAV per share has performed over a period of time, taking into account dividends paid to shareholders. It is calculated on the assumption that dividends are reinvested, on an accumulative basis from the inception of the Company, at the prevailing NAV on the last day of the month that the shares first trade ex-dividend. The performance is evaluated on an original shareholding of 1,000 shares on inception of the Company (12 June 2014). This provides a useful measure to allow shareholders to compare performances between investment companies where the dividend paid may differ.

Ongoing charges ratio ("OCR")

The ongoing charges ratio of an investment company is the annual percentage reduction in shareholder returns as a result of recurring operational expenditure. Ongoing charges are classified as those expenses which are likely to recur in the foreseeable future, and which relate to the operation of the company, excluding investment transaction costs, gains or losses on investments and performance fees. In accordance with the AIC guidance, the proportionate charges for the period are also incorporated from investments in other funds. As such charges for:

    1. 2021 Shares–from the Master Fund III a weighted average percentage for the period of 95.61% (31 December 2024: 95.61%), the Master Fund II at a weighted average percentage for the period of 59.48% (31 December 2024: 59.48%) and Wollemi at a weighted average percentage for the period of 65.06% (31 December 2024: 59.94%) are included.
    1. Realisation Shares from the Master Fund II a weighted average percentage for the period of 9.59% (31 December 2024: 9.59%) and Wollemi at a weighted average percentage for the period of 6.32% (31 December 2024: 7.38%) are included.

Performance fees or carried interest from the underlying funds are not included. The OCR is calculated as the total ongoing charges for a period divided by the average net asset value over that period.
