Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 15% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published August 11, 2025
Blue Owl aims to pay steady income while still having room to rise. Last quarter it earned 10.6% on shareholder money for the 12th straight time at double digits, and it used less debt. It also put $3B into Meta's $29B AI build-out, showing it can win big, high-quality deals. The price looks beaten down, yet the dividend and steady asset value help. Over the next few months it could drift back toward typical levels as loan pricing normalizes.
Primary drivers
- Keeps delivering strong double-digit returns on investor capital
- Joined a very large AI build, adding credible, high-quality deals
- Price looks beaten down while buyer interest remains steady
- Dividend income helps cushion swings in the share price
How it played out

Lyra published OBDC at $13.38 on 2025-08-11 with a short-term thesis for 13% growth toward $14.25.
