Overland Advantage Finances ~$4B Across 18 Transactions in 2025, Demonstrating Continued Strength in Middle Market Lending

NEW YORK, Jan. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Overland Advantage ("Overland") continues to benefit from Wells Fargo's extensive U.S. middle market sourcing footprint and Centerbridge Partners' top-tier private credit underwriting. Overland has provided highly customized credit solutions to family, founder, employee and sponsor-owned companies, financing 18 transactions in 2025 with an aggregate value of ~$4.0 billion. Since inception, Overland has arranged, structured and led ~96% of the credit facilities that it has invested in – an exceptional leadership track record. Overland's disciplined growth underscores its unique strategy and relevance, in particular within the family and founder-owned business community.

Since Overland's launch in May 2024, ~$7.0 billion in custom financing solutions have been underwritten to U.S. middle-market companies, 70% of which are founder and family owned, demonstrating market leadership in a market segment which is historically more challenging to access. Through financings provided together by Overland and Wells Fargo, companies have secured unique, flexible and cost-effective solutions that have allowed them to advance their strategic objectives.

Overland stands out as a differentiated provider of tailored and efficient capital solutions, catering to the unique financing needs of its clients. Overland invests across various industries, targeting market-leading companies with stable cash flows, unique product offerings, barriers to entry and experienced management teams.

"Amidst an evolving macro environment, Overland has leveraged the complementary strengths of Centerbridge and Wells Fargo to close 18 transactions this year," said Gavin Baiera, CEO and Trustee of Overland Advantage and Senior Managing Director at Centerbridge. "Our financing solutions have delivered exceptional results for borrowers, and our recent momentum underscores the strategic execution of our vision, the innovative nature of our direct lending solutions, and the robust partnership we maintain with Wells Fargo."

David Marks, Wells Fargo Commercial Banking EVP, shared, "We're proud to see that Overland has proven to be a market-leading direct lending solution for middle market companies, allowing us to expand long-term relationships and acquire new clients. By delivering the joint capabilities of Wells Fargo and Overland, we've created a complete solution for our clients to pursue their most strategic transactions."

Among the transactions Overland led in the second half of 2025 are the following:

• First lien credit facility for Tempo, a project management software company
• First lien credit facility for Technique, a metals fabricator specializing in low-volume and prototype solutions
• First lien credit facility for Atlantic Squared Supply, a distributor of roofing materials and manufacturer of metal roofing products
