Operator

Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Blue Owl Capital Corporation's Second Quarter 2024 Earnings Call. As a reminder, this call is being recorded. At this time, I'd like to turn the call over to Mike Mosticchio, Head of BDC Investor Relations for OBDC. Thank you.

Mike Mosticchio

Thanks, operator, and good morning to everyone joining. I'd like to remind listeners that remarks made during today's call may contain forward-looking statements, which are not a guarantee of future performance or results and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are outside the company's control. Actual results may differ materially from those in forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those described in OBDC's filings with the SEC.

Certain information discussed on this call and in the company's earnings materials, including information related to portfolio companies, was derived from third-party sources and has not been independently verified.

Yesterday, Blue Owl Capital Corporation issued its earnings release and posted an earnings presentation for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. These should be reviewed in conjunction with the company's 10-Q filed yesterday with the SEC. In addition, the company issued a press release announcing that OBDC has entered into a merger agreement with Blue Owl Capital Corporation III, or OBDE, our affiliate BDC, also traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

The merger is subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including shareholder approval. We have also posted an investor presentation with additional details about this transaction. All materials referenced on today's call, including the earnings press release, earnings presentation, 10-Q, and merger presentation, are available on the Investors section of the company's website at blueowlcapitalcorporation.com.

With that, I'll turn the call over to Craig Packer, Chief Executive Officer of OBDC.

Craig Packer

Thanks, Mike. Good morning, everyone, and thank you all for joining us today. On behalf of our full team, we are pleased to be sharing not just another quarter of strong results for OBDC, but also a milestone merger agreement between OBDC and OBDE that we believe will provide long-term strategic value to both sets of shareholders.
