All forward-looking statements included in this presentation are made only as of the date hereof and are subject to change without notice. Actual outcomes and results could differ materially from those suggested by this presentation due to the impact of many factors beyond the control of New Mountain Finance Corporation (“NMFC”), including those listed in the "Risk Factors" section of our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Any such forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions available under applicable securities laws and NMFC assumes no obligation to update or revise any such forward-looking statements unless required by law. Certain information discussed in this presentation (including information relating to portfolio companies) was derived from third party sources and has not been independently verified and, accordingly, NMFC makes no representation or warranty with respect to this information. The following slides contain summaries of certain financial and statistical information about NMFC. The information contained in this presentation is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of our SEC filings and other public announcements that we may make, by press release or otherwise, from time to time. We undertake no duty or obligation to publicly update or revise the information contained in this presentation unless required by law. In addition, information related to past performance, while helpful as an evaluative tool, is not necessarily indicative of future results, the achievement of which cannot be assured. You should not view the past performance of NMFC, or information about the market, as indicative of NMFC’s future results. The performance data stated herein may have been due to extraordinary market conditions, which may not be duplicated in the future. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performancedata quoted. This presentation does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities of NMFC. Past performance is not indicative nor a guarantee of future returns, the realization of which is dependent on many factors, many of which are beyond the control of NMFC. There can be no assurances that future dividends will match or exceed historic ones, or that they will be made at all. Net returns give effect to all fees and expenses. Unless otherwise noted, information included herein is presented as of the date indicated on the cover page and may change atany time without notice. NMFC is subject to certain significant risks relating to our business and investment objective. For more detailed information on risks relating to NMFC, see the latest annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports filed on Form 10-Q. Investment portfolio related activity, metrics and disclosures on slides 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 16, 17, 18, 20, 25, 26, 27, 32, 33, and 34 include the underlying collateral, and claim for 6/30/26, from securities purchased under collateralized agreements to resell. Figures shown herein are unaudited and may not add due to rounding. This presentation contains non-GAAP financial information. NMFC’s management uses this information in its internal analysis of results and believes that this information may be informative to investors in gauging the quality of NMFC’s financial performance, identifying trends in our results and providing meaningful period-to-period comparisons. However, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to any measures of financial performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Other companies may calculate this or similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently than we do. The term Adjusted Net Investment Income as used throughout this presentation is not defined under GAAP and is not a measure of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating its business, NMFC considers and uses Adjusted Net Investment Income as a measure of its operating performance. Adjusted Net Investment Income post NMFC’s IPO is defined as net investment income adjusted for non-recurring transactions. These adjustments provide useful information to investors by eliminating the effect of non-recurring items and enhances the comparability of the operating performance for the period. Adjusted Net Investment Income at NMFC’s IPO is defined as net investment income adjusted to reflect income as if the cost basis of investments held at NMFC’s IPO date had stepped-up to fair market value as of the IPO date. Under GAAP, NMFC’s IPO did not step-up the cost basis of the predecessor operating company’s existing investments to fair market value. Since the total value of the predecessor operating company’s investments at the time of the IPO was greater than the investments’ cost basis, a larger amount of amortization of purchase or issue discount, and different amounts in realized gains and unrealized appreciation, may be recognized under GAAP in each period than if a step-up had occurred. For purposes of the incentive fee calculation, NMFC adjusts income as if each investment was purchased at the date of the IPO (or stepped-up to fair market value). To view the reconciliation of Adjusted Net Investment Income, please refer to page 34. Important Notices and Safe Harbor Statement

43 43 Yield to Maturity (“YTM”) at Cost assumes that the accruing investments in our portfolio as of each date are purchased at cost on that date and held until their respective maturities with no prepayments or losses and are exited at par at maturity. This calculation excludes the impact of existing leverage. YTM at Cost uses the SOFR, EURIBOR, and SONIA curves at each quarter’s respective end date. The actual yield to maturity may be higher or lower due to the future selection of SOFR, EURIBOR, and/or SONIA contracts by the individual companies in our portfolio or other factors. Throughout the document, Senior Advisors are included in all references to staff members, team members, investment professionals or operating partners/executives unless stated otherwise. Generally, New Mountain Senior Advisors are similar to "Operating Partners" who provide general or specific industry expertise on particular projects or transactions. All persons listed in the Senior Advisors (Full Access) category are designated “access persons” pursuant to Rule 204A-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and are subject to New Mountain’s Code of Ethics, which therefore allows them to be fully included in New Mountain’s investment reviews. Based on a variety of factors, Senior Advisors for Special Projects are designated as “non-access persons” and are not subject to New Mountain’s Code of Ethics.

429 429 Portfolio Company EBITDA and Credit Statistics 1. Weighted averages based on fair value of debt investments for each respective quarter, excluding revolvers, non-accrual positions, and recurring revenue loans. EBITDA figures are derived from the most recently available portfolio company financial statements (which are generally one quarter in arrears), have not been independently verified by NMFC, and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. Accordingly, NMFC makes no representation or warranty in respect to this information. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a particular portfolio company, EBITDA is generally defined as net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation, and amortization over the last twelve months (“LTM”) 2. Net leverage multiple defined as total debt through NMFC’s investment less total cash for the period, divided by LTM EBITDA for the period. Financial metrics as of the most recently reported fiscal quarter for the underlying investments as of 6/30/2026, and each quarter prior for the prior periods 3. Interest coverage ratio defined as LTM EBITDA for the period divided by annualized interest expense for the period.
