Preliminary Estimates of&nbsp;Second Quarter&nbsp;2024 Results
Main Street&#39;s preliminary estimate of&nbsp;second quarter&nbsp;2024 net investment income (&quot;NII&quot;) is&nbsp;$1.00&nbsp;to&nbsp;$1.02&nbsp;per share and distributable net investment income (&quot;DNII&quot;) is&nbsp;$1.06&nbsp;to&nbsp;$1.08&nbsp;per share.(1)
Main Street&#39;s preliminary estimate of net asset value (&quot;NAV&quot;) per share as of June&nbsp;30, 2024 is&nbsp;$29.77&nbsp;to&nbsp;$29.83, representing an increase of&nbsp;$0.23&nbsp;to&nbsp;$0.29&nbsp;per share, or&nbsp;0.8%&nbsp;to&nbsp;1.0%, from the NAV per share of&nbsp;$29.54&nbsp;as of&nbsp;March 31, 2024, with this increase after the impact of the supplemental dividend paid in&nbsp;June 2024&nbsp;of&nbsp;$0.30&nbsp;per share. The estimated increase in NAV per share is primarily due to the net fair value increase on the investment portfolio resulting from the net unrealized appreciation and the net realized gain on portfolio investments, including an increase in the fair value of the wholly-owned asset manager, and the accretive impact of equity issuances during the quarter, with these increases partially offset by the net tax expense for the quarter.
As a result of Main Street&#39;s preliminary estimates of NII and net changes in the fair market value of its investment portfolio as noted above, Main Street estimates that it generated a quarterly annualized return on equity of&nbsp;15%&nbsp;to&nbsp;17%&nbsp;for the&nbsp;second quarter&nbsp;of 2024.(2)
Main Street preliminarily estimates that non-accrual investments comprised&nbsp;1.2%&nbsp;of the total investment portfolio at fair value and&nbsp;3.6%&nbsp;at cost as of June&nbsp;30, 2024.

The Jiyue 07, which follows the Jiyue 01 SUV as the second model under the Jiyue brand, is already on display at certain Jiyue showrooms, <a target="_blank" href="https://cnevpost.com/2024/07/16/jiyue-to-launch-jiyue-07-sept/" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> CnEV Post.
The dimensions of the Jiyue 07 exceed those of Tesla&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Model 3.
The Model 3 measures 4,724 mm in length, 1,848 mm in width, and 1,430 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,875 mm. Comparatively, the Jiyue 07 measures 4,953 mm in length, 1,989 mm in width, and 1,475 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,013 mm.

According to a regulatory filing on May 11, the Jiyue 07 will be manufactured at Geely&#8217;s plant in Ningbo, Zhejiang province. It will be available in both single-motor and dual-motor configurations.
The single-motor version features an electric motor capable of delivering up to 200 kW of power, while the dual-motor version includes an additional front motor also capable of 200 kW, both supplied by Geely Auto&#8217;s affiliate Viridi E-mobility Technology.
The Jiyue 07 offers two choices of battery packs: 71.4 kWh and 100 kWh, sourced from suppliers such as CATL and Svolt Energy. It boasts a range of up to 880 kilometers on a single charge, with intermediate options of 660 kilometers and 770 kilometers, the report highlighted.
Originally named Jidu, the brand underwent a renaming to Jiyue after Geely and Baidu formed the joint venture in March 2021. Initially, Baidu held a 55% stake while Geely owned 45%. On August 15, 2023, Geely announced the rebranding to Jiyue, replacing Jidu, potentially due to regulatory considerations.
Jiyue unveiled the Jiyue 07 sedan for the first time at the Beijing Auto Show in late April 2024.
