Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related parties | Note 22. Related parties Servicing Agreement On November 20, 2018, the Company entered into a servicing agreement (the “Servicing Agreement”) with BC Partners Advisors L.P. (“BCPA”). Under the terms of the Servicing Agreement, BCPA as servicing agent (the “Servicing Agent”) performs (or oversees, or arranges for, the performance of) the administrative services necessary for the operation of the Company, including, without limitation, office facilities, equipment, bookkeeping and recordkeeping services and such other services the Servicing Agent, subject to review by the Board, shall from time to time deem necessary or useful to perform its obligations under this Servicing Agreement. The Servicing Agent is authorized to enter into sub-administration agreements as determined to be necessary in order to carry out the administrative services. Unless earlier terminated as described below, the Servicing Agreement will remain in effect from year-to-year if approved annually by (i) the vote of the Board and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Company’s directors who are not parties to the Servicing Agreement or a “related party” of the Servicing Agent, or of any of its affiliates. The Servicing Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice by the vote of the Board or by the Servicing Agent. The Company reimburses BCPA for an allocable portion of compensation paid to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, associated management personnel (based on a percentage of time such individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business affairs of the Company), and out-of-pocket expenses. While the Servicing Agent performs certain administrative functions for the Company, the management functions of the Company are wholly performed by the Company’s management team. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred administrative fees of $5.9 million (December 31, 2024 – $3.9 million). As of December 31, 2025, administrative fees payable to BCPA was $1.7 million (December 31, 2024 – $1.2 million). Staffing and Resource Agreement On November 18, 2025, the Company entered into a Staffing and Resource Agreement with BCPA (the “Staffing and Resource Agreement”), pursuant to which BCPA makes available certain personnel and other resources to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to support the Company’s investment advisory operations and related business activities. Personnel provided by BCPA are not employees of the Company. In consideration for providing staffing and other services, the Company pays BCPA a quarterly service fee calculated as a percentage of fee-earning assets under management at rates specified in the Staffing and Resource Agreement and, from time to time, equity-based compensation as mutually agreed. The Staffing and Resource Agreement has an initial one-year term and automatically renews for successive one-year periods, and may be terminated by either party on 60 days’ prior written notice or immediately in specified circumstances. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred fees payable to BCPA under the Staffing and Resource Agreement of $1.0 million (December 31, 2024 – $nil). As of December 31, 2025, fees payable to BCPA under the Staffing and Resource Agreement was $1.0 million (December 31, 2024 – $nil). Transactions with Affiliates - servicing fees The Company, through MLC US Holdings, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, provides certain administrative services to SCIM in respect of the management of Alternative Credit Income Fund (“ACIF”) in exchange for a servicing fee. Servicing fees are determined quarterly based on an amount equal to the aggregate base management fee and incentive fees received by SCIM from ACIF in respect of such quarter, net of debt servicing expense, a quarterly fee to be retained by SCIM comprised of a specified amount, and an allocable portion of the compensation of SCIM’s investment professionals in connection with their performance of investment advisory services for ACIF (collectively, the “Retained Benefits”). In addition, SCIM is reimbursed by MLC US Holdings quarterly for certain expenses it incurs in connection with the investment advisory services provided to ACIF. Pursuant to this arrangement, the Company receives the net economic benefit derived by SCIM under the ACIF advisory agreement, subject to the holdback of the Retained Benefits and expense reimbursements. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred servicing fees of $2.1 million (December 31, 2024 – $2.5 million). The Company, through MLC US Holdings, a wholly-owned subsidiary, issued a promissory note to SCIM on October 30, 2020, with a maturity of October 30, 2040. The note’s value is not to exceed $15M and bears interest at 8.0% per annum, payable quarterly, for the first 10 years. During the second 10 years outstanding, repayments of the note shall occur in equal quarterly installment payments, bearing interest at 8.0% per annum, plus an additional 2% annually on overdue principal. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding principal value of the note was $13.6 million (December 31, 2024: $13.6 million). For the year ended December 31, 2025, total interest income was $1.1 million (December 31, 2024: $1.1 million). As of December 31, 2025, the total accrued interest income receivable was $3.0 million (December 31, 2024: $1.9 million). Transactions with Affiliates - profit sharing interest On July 15, 2025, Portman Ridge Finance Corporation (“Portman” or “Portman Ridge”) and Logan Ridge, business development companies previously managed by SCIM and ML Management, respectively, completed a merger whereby Logan Ridge merged with and into Portman (the “Portman-Logan Merger”). Pursuant to the Portman-Logan Merger, Portman was the surviving public entity and continues to be advised by SCIM, which the Company holds a minority ownership interest of 24.99%. The Portman-Logan Merger resulted in the existing IMA between ML Management and Logan Ridge being terminated. In connection with the closing of the Portman-Logan Merger, MLCSC Holdings LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary (“MLCSC”), entered into a Profit-Sharing Agreement with BCPSC Holdings LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of BCPA and the majority owner of SCIM (the “Profit-Sharing Agreement”). Pursuant to the Profit-Sharing Agreement, MLCSC is entitled to 16.03% of BCPA’s distributions from SCIM. The value of the Profit-Sharing Agreement was determined to be $11.2 million at inception and subsequently refined to $8.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, and is considered an indefinite lived intangible asset. Income earned as a result of the profit sharing agreement is recorded as “Other income (loss), net” on the consolidated statement of operations. For the year ended December 31, 2025, income earned on the profit sharing agreement was $0.4 million (December 31, 2024: nil). Potential Conflicts of Interest The Company's senior management team is comprised of substantially the same personnel as the senior management team of BCPA, and such personnel may serve in similar or other capacities for BCPA or to future investment vehicles affiliated with BC Partners. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to the Company and certain investment vehicles considered affiliates of BC Partners.

Directors (both executive and non-executive) are considered key personnel. Certain directors and officers of the Company are affiliated with BCPA. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Co-presidents received no cash salary or bonuses of any kind.
