1. Organization

StepStone Private Markets (“Fund”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act on September 6, 2019 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund is offered to investors who are accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Fund commenced operations on October 1, 2020.

The Fund offers Class I Shares, Class D Shares, Class S Shares and Class T Shares (together, “Shares”) to eligible investors (“Shareholders”). The Shares are offered in a continuous registered public offering with subscriptions accepted on a daily basis at the then-current-daily net asset value (“NAV”) per share, adjusted for sales load, if applicable. The Fund may, from time to time, offer to repurchase Shares pursuant to written repurchase offers. Repurchases will be made at such times, in such amounts and on such terms as determined by the Fund’s Board of Trustees (“Board”).

The Board provides broad oversight over the Fund’s investment program, management and operations and has the right to delegate management responsibilities. StepStone Group Private Wealth LLC serves as the Fund’s investment adviser (“Adviser”). The Adviser oversees the management of the Fund’s day-to-day activities including structuring, governance, distribution, reporting and oversight. StepStone Group LP (“StepStone”) serves as the Fund’s investment sub-adviser (“Sub-Adviser”) and is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund’s assets. StepStone Group Private Wealth LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of StepStone.

The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation and provide current income by investing in private market assets (“Private Market Assets”). To achieve its investment objective, the Fund will allocate its assets across private equity, private debt and real assets.

Master-Feeder Structure

The Fund and StepStone Private Markets Feeder Ltd. (“Feeder Fund”) are part of a “master-feeder” structure. The Feeder Fund invests substantially all of its assets in the Fund. As of September 30, 2024, the Feeder Fund invests in Class I shares and owns 10.30% of the Fund’s net assets.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are presented in U.S. dollars which is the functional currency of the Fund. The Fund is an investment company and therefore applies the accounting and reporting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. The following are significant accounting policies which are consistently followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Basis of Consolidation

As provided under ASC Topic 946 and Regulation S-X, the Fund will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Fund. Accordingly, the Fund has consolidated the results of the Fund’s direct wholly-owned subsidiaries including: SPRIM LLC (Series A and Series B), a Delaware limited liability company, as well as SPRIM Cayman LLC, SPRIM Cayman II LLC and SPRIM Cayman III LLC (together, “SPRIM Cayman”), which are limited liability companies registered in the Cayman Islands, and SPRIM Blue Jay Investco ULC, an unlimited liability corporation registered in Canada. The effects of all intercompany transactions between the Fund and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other factors or parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Net Asset Value Determination

The NAV of the Fund is determined as of the close of business on each business day, or as may be determined from time to time in accordance with policies approved by the Board (each, a “Determination Date”). In determining NAV, the Fund’s investments are valued as of the relevant Determination Date. The NAV of the Fund will equal, unless otherwise noted, the value of the total assets of the Fund, less all of its liabilities, including accrued fees and expenses allocated to Shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund, each determined as of the relevant Determination Date.

Valuation of Investments

The Fund’s investments are valued as of each Determination Date at fair value consistent with the principles of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”). The Board has adopted valuation policies (“Valuation Policies”) and has appointed the Adviser to manage the valuation process of the Fund. The Adviser utilizes the resources and personnel of the Sub-Adviser and the Fund’s sub-administrator in carrying out its responsibilities. The Board must determine fair value in good faith for all Fund investments and has chosen to designate the Adviser to perform the fair value determinations.

Purchases of investments are recorded as of the first day of legal ownership of an investment and redemptions from investments are recorded as of the last day of legal ownership. Investments held by the Fund in Private Market Assets may include secondary purchases of existing investments in private investment funds (“Secondary Investment Funds”), investments in newly established private funds (“Primary Investment Funds”) and investments in the equity and/or debt of operating companies, projects or properties (“Co-Investments”). These types of investments normally do not have readily available market prices and therefore will be fair valued according to the Valuation Policies at each Determination Date. The Valuation Policies require evaluation of all relevant information reasonably available to the Adviser at the time the Fund’s investments are valued. Valuations of Private Market Assets are inherently subjective and at any point in time may differ materially from the ultimate value, if any, realized on the investment.

Ordinarily, the fair value of the Fund’s investment in a Secondary Investment Fund or a Primary Investment Fund is based on the net asset value of the investment reported by its investment manager (“Investment Manager”). In determining fair value, the Fund may incorporate public benchmark returns that are relevant to the investment funds under consideration to adjust fair values as of the relevant Determination Date. The public benchmark returns are adjusted for long-term, historical correlations between public and private investment returns and other relevant factors. If the Adviser determines that the most recent net asset value reported by the Investment Manager does not represent fair value or if the Investment Manager fails to report a net asset value to the Fund, a fair value determination is made by the Adviser in accordance with the Valuation Policies. In making that determination, the Adviser will consider whether it is appropriate, in light of all relevant circumstances, to value such investment at the net asset value last reported by its Investment Manager, or whether to adjust such net asset value to reflect a premium or discount (adjusted net asset value). The net asset values or adjusted net asset values are net of management fees and performance/incentive fees (carried interest) payable pursuant to the respective organizational documents of each investment fund.

The fair value of a CLO Warehouse, included as a Primary Investment Fund in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, is determined by adding the excess spread (accrued interest plus interest received less financing cost) to the CLO Warehouse equity contribution made by the Fund, discounted to present value, unless the Adviser determines that the securitization will not be achieved, in which case, the fair value of a CLO Warehouse will be established based on the fair value of the underlying bank loan positions which are valued in a manner consistent with the Adviser’s valuation policy. CLO Warehouses can be exposed to credit events, mark to market changes rating agency downgrades and financing cost changes. Changes in the fair value of a CLO Warehouse are reported in net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from investments in securities in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In assessing the fair value of the Fund’s Co-Investments in accordance with the Valuation Policies, on a case by case basis, the Adviser either applies the net asset value reported by the Investment Manager or a variety of methods such as earnings and multiple analysis, discounted cash flow analysis and market data from third party pricing services. The Adviser takes into account the following factors in determining the fair value of Co-Investment: latest round of financing, company operating performance, market-based multiples, potential merger and acquisition activity and any other material information that may impact investment fair value.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

In certain circumstances, the Adviser may determine that cost best approximates the fair value of a particular Private Market Asset. The Fund will generally value its investments that are traded or dealt in upon one or more securities exchanges and for which market quotations are readily available at the last quoted sales price on the primary exchange, or at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the primary exchange, as of the Determination Date.

The Sub-Adviser and one or more of its affiliates acts as investment adviser to clients other than the Fund. However, the value attributed to a Private Market Asset held by the Fund and the value attributed to the same Private Market Asset held by another client of the Sub-Adviser or one of its affiliates might differ as a result of differences in accounting, regulatory, timing and other factors applicable to the Fund when compared to such other client.

Short-term investments are highly liquid instruments with low risk of loss and recorded at NAV per share, which approximates fair value.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of and amendments to the Fund’s credit facilities. The aforementioned costs are amortized over each instrument’s term. Unamortized debt issuance costs are presented net against the outstanding revolving credit facility balance on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Foreign Currency Translation

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of investments, assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon current foreign exchange rates on the Determination Date. Purchases and sales of foreign investments, income and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars based on currency exchange rates prevailing on the date of the relevant transaction. Net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency translation represents: (1) foreign exchange gains and losses from the sale and holdings of foreign currencies; (2) gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions; and (3) gains and losses from the difference between amounts of interest and dividends recorded and the amounts actually received. The Fund does not isolate the net realized and unrealized gain or loss resulting from changes in exchange rates from fluctuations in the fair value of investments. Such fluctuations are included within the net realized gain distributions from investments and the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of September 30, 2024, the Fund held 56 Secondary Investment Funds, one Primary Investment Fund and six Co-Investments denominated in foreign currencies.

Realized Gains on Investments, Interest Income and Dividend Income

Distributions received from Secondary Investment Funds, Primary Investment Funds and Co-Investments occur at irregular intervals and the exact timing of the distributions cannot be determined. The classification of distributions received in cash or in-kind, including return of capital, realized gains, interest income and dividend income, is based on information received from the Investment Manager of the Secondary Investment Funds, Primary Investment Funds or Co-Investments. Excluding short-term investments, dividend income and interest income are recorded on a trade date and accrual basis. For short-term investments, dividend income from money market investments is accrued on a daily basis.

Fund Expenses

The Fund bears all expenses incurred in the course of its operations including, but not limited to, the following: all fees and expenses of the Private Market Assets in which the Fund invests (“Acquired Fund Fees”), management fees, fees and expenses associated with a credit facility, legal fees, administrator fees, audit and tax preparation fees, custodial fees, transfer agency fees, registration expenses, expenses of the Board and other administrative expenses. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis and expenses other than class-specific expenses are allocated pro-rata to Shares based upon prior day net assets at each Determination Date. Class-specific expenses are allocated only to their respective share class (see Note 6). Closing costs associated with the purchase of Secondary Investment Funds, Primary Investment Funds and Co-Investments are included in the cost of the investment.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Federal Income Taxes

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code by distributing substantially all of its taxable net investment income and net realized capital gains to Shareholders each year and by meeting certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investments. If the Fund were to fail to meet the requirements to qualify as a RIC, and if the Fund were ineligible to or otherwise unable to cure such failure, the Fund would be subject to tax on its taxable income at corporate rates, whether or not distributed to Shareholders, and all distributions of earnings and profits would be taxable to Shareholders as ordinary income.

Additionally, the Fund is subject to a 4% federal excise tax on any undistributed income, including net capital gains, if it does not distribute at least 98% of its taxable income and 98.2% capital gains each year. The Fund makes provisions to meet these distribution requirements to avoid such excise tax, and any excise tax liability, if incurred, will be reflected in the financial statements.

The Fund’s tax year is the 12-month period ending September 30. The Fund files tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the Fund is subject to examination by federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions, where applicable. As of September 30, 2024, the tax years from the year 2021 forward remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations.

Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from net investment income and net realized capital gains for financial statement purposes under U.S. GAAP. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences, including book/tax differences relating to Shareholder distributions, are reclassified among capital accounts in the consolidated financial statements to reflect the applicable tax characterization. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse in the future. The tax basis components of distributable earnings differ from the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Consolidated Statement of Operations due to temporary book/tax differences. These amounts will be finalized before filing the Fund’s federal tax return.

SPRIM LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, is a domestic limited liability company that has elected to be treated as a C- corporation for federal and state income tax purposes and is required to account for its estimate of income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability. The Fund recognizes deferred income taxes for temporary differences in the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, tax credit carryforwards or net operating loss carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. To the extent SPRIM LLC has a deferred tax asset, consideration is given to whether a valuation allowance is required.

The SPRIM Cayman subsidiaries and SPRIM Canadian subsidiary, wholly-owned by the Fund, are not subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes and are treated as entities disregarded as separate from their sole owner, the Fund, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Cash

Cash includes monies on deposit with UMB Bank N.A. (”UMB Bank”), the Fund’s custodian, and investments in UMB Bank demand deposits. Bank demand deposits are short-term interest-bearing accounts to provide liquidity pending investment in Private Market Assets. Deposits, at times, may exceed the insurance limit guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Fund has not experienced any losses on deposits and does not believe it is exposed to significant credit risk on such deposits. There are no restrictions on the cash held by UMB Bank on the Fund’s behalf.

Deferred Costs Relating to Purchases of Secondary Investment Funds

Deferred costs relating to purchases of Secondary Investment Funds are amortized daily over the term of the deferral until the due date of the deferred payment. At the due date, the value of the payment equals the notional amount due to the respective counterparty.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Fund does not expect this guidance to materially impact its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (ASC 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The primary purpose of the amendments within ASU 2023-09 is to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid information. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amendments in this ASU 2023-09 require that all entities disclose on an annual basis taxes paid disaggregated by; federal, state, foreign, and jurisdiction (when income taxes paid is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid). The amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for public business entities beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis. Retrospective application is permitted. Management is currently assessing the method by which we will adopt the new standard. The Fund does not expect this guidance to materially impact its consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

U.S. GAAP, ASC 820, defines fair value as the value that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observation of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

Level 1: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The types of investments which would generally be included in Level 1 include listed equities, registered money market funds and short- term investment vehicles.

Level 2: Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. The types of investments which would generally be included in Level 2 include corporate bonds and loans and less liquid and restricted equity securities.

3. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

Level 3: Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment and/or estimation. Those unobservable inputs, that are not corroborated by market data, generally reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in determining the fair value of the investment. The types of investments which would generally be included in Level 3 are equity and/or debt securities issued by private entities.

In accordance with ASC 820, certain portfolio investments are excluded from the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using a practical expedient. These investments are fair valued using NAV for cash flows and public benchmark returns. As such, investments in securities with a fair value of $2.9 billion are excluded from the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2024.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments classified by fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2024:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Investments Valued at NAV or Adjusted NAV		Total
Co-Investments	$	—	$	—	$	85,112,294	$	289,587,027	$	374,699,321

The following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

	Co-Investments		Primary Investment Funds		Total Investments
Balance as of March 31, 2024	$	48,963,615	$	—	$	48,963,615
Transfers into Level 3		—		—		—

Distributions from Investments		(2,000,674)		—		(2,000,674)

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)		(1,186,396)		—		(1,186,396)

Balance as of September 30, 2024	$	85,112,294	$	1,170,000	$	86,282,294

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments Held at the End of the Reporting Period	$	(1,186,396)	$	—	$	(1,186,396)

Changes in inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may result in transfers in or out of levels within the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments may not necessarily be indicative of the risk associated with investing in those investments. Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are reported at the beginning of the reporting period in which they occur.

(“Sub-Administrator”) a sub-administration fee to perform certain administrative and accounting services for the Fund on behalf of the Administrator. The sub-administration fee, pursuant to a sub-administration agreement and a fund accounting agreement, is paid monthly by the Administrator and is based on the value of the net assets of the Fund as of the close of business on each business day, subject to an annual minimum.

UMB Bank serves as the Fund’s custodian (“Custodian”) pursuant to a custody agreement. As the Custodian, UMB Bank holds the Fund’s domestic assets. Foreign assets are held by sub-custodians.

The Distributor is authorized to enter into Sub-Distribution Agreements with brokers, dealers and certain Registered Investment Advisers and other financial intermediaries to effect the distribution of Shares of the Fund. The Fund pays a distribution and shareholder servicing fee out of the net assets of Class S Shares and Class T Shares at the annual rate of 0.85% of the aggregate NAV of each Class S Shares and Class T Shares. The Fund pays a shareholder servicing fee out of the net assets of Class D Shares at the annual rate of 0.25% of the aggregate

NAV of Class D Shares. Distribution and shareholder servicing fees are determined and accrued daily based on the net assets of the Share Class as of the close of business on each business day (including net assets in respect of Shares that will be repurchased by the Fund on such date). Class I Shares are not subject to a distribution and shareholder servicing fee. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, distribution and shareholder servicing fees incurred are disclosed on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

7. Revolving Credit Facility

Effective November 23, 2021, the Fund entered into a revolving credit agreement (“Credit Facility”), as amended from time to time, with Cadence Bank, N.A. allowing the Fund to borrow up to $150.0 million (“Commitment”) from a syndicate of lenders. The purpose of the Credit Facility is to provide short-term working capital, primarily to bridge the timing of the Fund’s acquisition of Private Market Assets in advance of the receipt of investor subscriptions. Borrowings on the Credit Facility are collateralized by all assets of the Fund. The Commitment termination date is February 5, 2025.

The Credit Facility has an interest rate of the Daily Simple SOFR rate plus 3.00% per annum, with a minimum rate of 3.50%, and an unused fee of 0.60% per annum. In conjunction with the Credit Facility, the Fund incurred a closing fee of 0.50% which is being amortized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations over the term of the Credit Facility.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

As of September 30, 2024, the Fund has contractual unfunded commitments to provide additional funding of $931.7 million to certain investments.

ASC 460-10, Guarantees — Overall, requires entities to provide disclosure and, in certain circumstances, recognition of guarantees and indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification arrangements. The Fund’s exposure under these arrangements, if any, cannot be quantified. However, the Fund has not had claims or losses pursuant to these indemnification arrangements and expects the potential for a material loss to be remote.

9. Capital Share Transactions

The Fund offers four separate classes of shares of beneficial interest designated as Class I Shares, Class D Shares, Class S Shares and Class T Shares. Each class of Shares is subject to different fees and expenses.

The minimum initial investment in Class I Shares by an investor in the Fund is $1.0 million. The minimum initial investment in Class D Shares, Class S Shares and Class T Shares by an investor is $50,000. The minimum initial investment may be reduced at the Adviser’s discretion. Investors purchasing Class S Shares and Class T Shares may be charged a sales load up to a maximum of 3.50%. Investors purchasing Class I Shares and Class D Shares are not charged a sales load. The Fund accepts initial and additional purchases of Shares daily at the Fund’s then-current NAV per share.

Shareholders may exchange shares from one class to another for an equivalent NAV amount of that share class.

The Adviser intends to recommend to the Board, subject to the Board’s discretion, that the Fund offer a quarterly share repurchase program where the total aggregate amount of Share repurchases will be up to 5.00% of the Fund’s outstanding Shares each quarter. In the event that Shareholders, in the aggregate, submit for repurchase more than the number of Shares that the Fund will offer to repurchase, the Fund may repurchase the Shares on a pro rata basis, which may result in the Fund not honoring the full amount of a Share repurchase requested by a Shareholder. The Fund has no obligation to repurchase Shares at any time; any such repurchases will only be made at such times, in such amounts and on such terms as may be determined by the Board of Trustees, in its sole discretion.

10. Dividend Reinvestment Plan

Pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) established by the Fund, each Shareholder whose Shares are registered in its own name will automatically be a participant under the DRIP and all income and/or capital gain dividend distributions will automatically be reinvested in additional Shares unless such Shareholder specifically elects to receive all income and/or capital gain dividends in cash. A Shareholder is free to change this election at any time. If, however, a Shareholder requests to change its election within 45 days prior to a distribution, the request will be effective only with respect to distributions after the 45-day period.

11. Investment Transactions

For the six months ended September 30, 2024, purchases of investments, excluding short term investments, were $1.1 billion. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, total proceeds received from investments that represented return of capital distributions were $57.5 million. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, total distribution proceeds from sale, redemption, or other disposition of investments amounted to $8.1 million.

12. Tax Information

The Fund has temporary differences primarily due to timing differences between book and tax treatment of partnership and Subpart F income from the Fund’s subsidiaries.

U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. Permanent differences between book and tax basis are attributable to the write-off of net operating losses and reclassification of income from controlled foreign corporations. As of September 30, 2024, the Fund had no permanent book to tax differences.

12. Tax Information (continued)

For the tax year ended September 30, 2024, the Fund’s tax components of distributable earnings on a tax basis are as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$	965,606
Accumulated capital and other losses		—
Undistributed long-term capital gains		2,251,665
Amortization of organizational costs		(897,695	)
Net tax appreciation (depreciation)		501,327,244
Total distributable earnings	$	503,646,820

The tax character of Subchapter M distributions for the tax years ended 2024 and 2023 was as follows:

	Ordinary Income		Long-Term Capital Gains
2024	$	7,076,114	$	12,692,743
2023	$	8,120,431	$	9,282,542

As of September 30, 2024, the Fund had no qualified late year losses.

As of September 30, 2024, the federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) are as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation	$	566,959,681
Gross unrealized depreciation		(65,632,437	)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments	$	501,327,244
Tax cost of investments	$	2,847,989,216

The difference between cost amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes is due primarily to timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on partnership investments.

SPRIM LLC recorded a provision for income tax expense of $0.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2024. The deferred income tax is computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0% and estimated applicable state tax statutory rate of 2.5% to net investment income realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments before taxes. As of September 30, 2024, SPRIM LLC has a deferred tax liability of $6.3 million.

In accounting for income taxes, the Fund follows the guidance in ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 prescribes the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity before being measured and recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Management has concluded there were no uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2024 for federal income tax purposes or in the Fund’s state and local tax jurisdictions. The Fund will recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as tax expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties. The Fund did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2024.

13. Risk Factors

An investment in the Fund involves material risks, including performance risk, liquidity risk, business and financial risk, risks associated with the use of leverage, valuation risk, tax risk and other risks that should be carefully considered prior to investing and investing should only be considered by persons financially able to maintain their investment and who can afford a loss of a substantial part or all of such investment.

14. Subsequent Events

On November 11, 2024, the Fund commenced a repurchase offer with a valuation date of December 16, 2024.

The Fund has adopted financial reporting rules regarding subsequent events which require an entity to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet or may be of such a nature that disclosure will keep the financial statements from being misleading. The Adviser has evaluated the Fund’s related events and transactions that occurred through the date of issuance of the Fund’s financial statements. There were no other events or transactions that occurred during this period that materially impacted the amounts or disclosures in the Fund’s consolidated financial statements or the accompanying notes.
