LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS AND MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION OF COMPANYPERFORMANCE Dear Fellow Stockholders: We are pleased to provide you with the enclosed report of Eagle Point Credit Company Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the“Company”) for the fiscal year ended December31, 2025. The Company is a closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,as amended, and is advised by Eagle Point Credit Management LLC (the “Adviser”). The Company’s primary investmentobjective is to generate high current income, with a secondary objective to generate capital appreciation. We seek toachieve these objectives by investing primarily in the equity and junior debt tranches of collateralized loan obligations(“CLOs”). We may also invest in other securities or instruments that are related investments or that are consistent with ourinvestment objectives. Full Year 2025 Results During 2025, the CLO equity market experienced challenging conditions, and the Company was not immune to thesebroadermarket dynamics. Although default rates remained below long-term historical averages,both loan spreadcompression and a general negative sentiment towards credit adversely affected the Company’s financial performance andthe total return delivered to our shareholders last year. Our disciplined focus on portfolio management and long-term value creation through CLO resets and refinancings helpedmitigate some of the headwinds that CLO equity faced. In addition, throughout the year we leveraged our Adviser’s broaderinvestment origination capabilities and opportunistically increased the Company’s exposure to credit asset classes beyondCLO equity. For the year ended December31, 2025, the Company recorded a decrease in net assets resulting from operations of$134million, or $1.08 per weighted average common share, primarily due to unrealized losses on investments driven byongoing spread compression in the underlying loan market.This represents a GAAP return on common equity of -14.6%for the year.The Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) per common share decreased from $8.38 to $5.70, and we paid$1.68 per share in regular monthly distributions to our common stockholders for the same period.Eagle Point Credit Company Inc.12 Our common stock trades on the NYSE under the symbol “ECC” and may trade, and often does, at prices that differ fromNAV per common share. As of December31, 2025, the closing price per share of our common stock was $5.76,representing a 1.05% premium to NAV per common share.From our
