NEWS RELEASE Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc. Announces September 30, 2025 Financial Results and Declares Fourth Quarter 2025 Dividend of $0.40 Per Share 2025-11-10 CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc. (NYSE: KBDC) (“KBDC or the Company”), a business development company externally managed by its investment adviser, KA Credit Advisors, LLC, today announced its nancial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. Financial Highlights for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2025 Net investment income of $30.0 million, or $0.43 per share; Net asset value of $16.34 per share, decreased from $16.37 per share as of June 30, 2025, primarily as a result of unrealized losses of $0.08 o set by higher net investment income earned over distributions paid of $0.03 and accretive share repurchases of $0.02; New private credit and equity co-investment commitments of $295.5 million, fundings of $273.6 million and repayments of $73.5 million, resulting in a net funded private credit and equity investment increase of $200.1 million; Sales and repayments of broadly syndicated loans of $113.0 million; The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) declared a regular dividend of $0.40 per share, to be paid on January 16, 2026 to stockholders of record as of December 31, 2025. “We delivered another solid quarter marked by strong origination activity, stable credit performance and a high- quality earnings mix. With nearly $300 million in new private credit investments at an average spread of 568bps over SOFR, we continue to see healthy deal ow in the core middle market, driven in-part by a recent pickup in M&A-related nancing opportunities, which we believe bodes well for outlook in the near-term,” said Doug Goodwillie, Co-Chief Executive O cer. 1

“Despite broader market volatility and headlines around the private credit space, our target market broadly and portfolio speci cally continue to demonstrate strong fundamentals. We remain defensively positioned with 94% of our portfolio invested in rst-lien senior secured loans, lending at an average leverage level of 4.2x, lower than many of our peers, and continue to be pleased with credit performance of our loan book with a non-accrual rate of just 1.4%,” said Ken Leonard, Co-Chief Executive O cer. “We believe KBDC is well-positioned to continue its relative outperformance while generating attractive, risk-adjusted returns through varying market cycles.” Selected Financial Highlights As of (in thousands, expect per share data)September 30, 2025June 30, 2025 Investment portfolio, at fair value $ 2,255,513$ 2,174,640Total assets $ 2,337,968$ 2,255,991Total debt outstanding, at principal $ 1,153,000$ 1,054,000Net assets $ 1,140,096$ 1,157,331Net asset value per share $ 16.34$ 16.37Total debt-to-equity ratio 1.01x 0.91x For the quarter ended September 30, 2025June 30, 2025 Net investment income per share $ 0.43$ 0.40Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) per share$ (0.08)$ (0.05)Earnings per share $ 0.35$ 0.35Regular dividend per share $ 0.40$ 0.40Special dividend per share $ -$ 0.10(1) Amounts shown may not correspond for the period as it includes the e ect of the timing of the distribution, shares repurchased, and theissuance of common stock. Results of Operations Total investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $61.3 million, as compared to $57.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by rotations out of the lower yielding broadly syndicated loans into middle market loans, accelerated amortization and fees earned from repayments and the impact of net additions to the portfolio during the third quarter. PIK income represented 3.5% of total interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Net investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $30.0 million or $0.43 per share as compared to $28.7 million or $0.40 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Net expenses for the third quarter were $31.3 million, as compared to $28.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily the result of higher average borrowings on our credit facilities and increased base management fees as a partial fee waiver was in e ect during the second quarter. For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company had a net change in unrealized losses on investments of $5.0 million. The unrealized losses for the quarter were primarily driven by negative fair value changes and quarterly amortization of original issue discounts, partially o set by new upfront fees for originations during the (1) 2

quarter. Additionally, the Company had $0.4 million of deferred income tax expense related to unrealized gains on equity investments in the Company’s wholly owned taxable subsidiary.
