RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2024
Investment Income
Investment income increased to $396.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $394.2 million for the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher dividend income and was partially offset by lower interest income and other income. Dividend income increased period-over-period primarily due to an increase in dividends earned from Blue Owl Capital Corporation Senior Loan Fund LLC, Wingspire Capital Holdings LLC and Fifth Season Investments LLC. Interest income decreased period-over-period primarily due to a decline in portfolio yield. Other income decreased period-over-period primarily due to lower incremental fee income, which are fees received and recognized to OBDC upon closing investments and normally paid at the time of closing. The Company expects that investment income will vary based on a variety of factors including the pace of our originations and repayments.
Expenses
Total expenses remained consistent at $205.2 million for the period ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year. There was a slight decline in interest expense driven by a decrease in average daily borrowings, offset by an increase in the average interest rate period-over-period. As a percentage of total assets, management fees, professional fees, directors' fees and other general and administrative expenses remained relatively consistent period-over-period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $380.0 million in cash and restricted cash, $7.5 billion in total principal value of debt outstanding, and $1.3 billion of undrawn capacity on the Company's credit facilities. The Company's weighted average interest rate on debt outstanding was 5.6% and 5.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Ending net debt to equity was 1.20x and 1.04x as of June 30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.
