Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 12% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published August 19, 2025
OBDC looks ready for a bounce after a sharp selloff. Several signs point to buyers stepping back in soon, and overall mood is very positive. Q2 profit of $0.40 per share topped forecasts. Blue Owl also helped fund Meta's $29B AI build, showing strong access to big deals. If buying strength continues, the price could drift back toward the top of its recent range over the next 0-3 months, helped by steady income from lending.
Primary drivers
- Shares look washed out and now appear to be turning upward after heavy selling
- Q2 profit per share of $0.40 beat expectations, showing steady execution
- Role in Meta's $29B AI project signals strong access to future lending deals
- Positive mood and steady income from lending support near-term total return
How it played out
OBDC: target missed after a brief bounce
Lyra published OBDC at $13.47 on 2025-08-19. The thesis expected 10% growth over a short-term window, with a move toward $13.96. It pointed to a washed-out setup after heavy selling, Q2 profit per share of $0.40, Blue Owl's role in a large artificial intelligence funding deal, positive mood, and steady lending income.
Inside the window, OBDC rose only to $13.63 on 2025-09-05, a 1.2% peak gain. It stayed below the $13.96 target and never reached it. By 2025-11-17, it ended at $11.52. The bounce was brief. The thesis partially played out early, then missed.
