RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Set forth below are the results of operations during the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
Investment Income
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, investment income was $36.0 million and $70.3 million, respectively, which was attributable to $27.8 million and $52.9 million from first lien secured debt, $2.8 million and $5.4 million from second lien secured debt, $0.1 million and $1.4 million from subordinated debt and $5.3 million and $10.6 million from preferred and common equity, respectively.

The increase in investment income for the six months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to the increase in the cost of yield of our debt portfolio.

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, net realized gains (losses) totaled $(148.7) million and $(144.7) million, respectively. The change in realized gains (losses) was primarily due to changes in the market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized.

As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the net unrealized depreciation on the Truist Credit Facility totaled $3.9 million and $5.5 million, respectively. Net change in unrealized appreciation was primarily due to changes in the capital markets.
Net Change in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations totaled $4.9 million and $(67.0) million, or $0.07 per share and $(1.03) per share, respectively. The increase in net assets from operation was primarily due to a decrease in the net realized and unrealized depreciation in the portfolio primarily driven by changes in market conditions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from cash flows from operations, including income earned, proceeds from investment sales and repayments and proceeds of securities offerings and debt financings. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of interest expense, fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our debt capital, proceeds from of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives and operations.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had $396.5 million and $212.4 million in outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 7.7% and 7.7%, respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had $78.5 million and $262.6 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, respectively, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $35.4 million and $38.8 million, respectively, available for investing and general corporate purposes. We believe our liquidity and capital resources are sufficient to allow us to effectively operate our business.

Our operating activities used cash primarily due to our investment activities and our financing activities provided cash primarily from borrowings under the Truist Credit Facility.
