Capitala Finance Corp. (Nasdaq:CPTA) ("Capitala", the “Company”,
“we”, “us”, or “our”) today announced its financial results for the
second quarter of 2020.
Second Quarter Highlights
- Increase in NAV per share-$6.46 at June 30, 2020 compared to
$6.27 at March 31, 2020
- Successful wind down of Capitala Senior Loan Fund II, LLC
(“CSLF II”)
- Reduced non-accrual balances
- Liquidity from repayments will allow the Company to reduce
leverage during the second half of 2020 and support existing and
new portfolio investments
Management Commentary
In describing the Company’s second quarter activities, Joseph B.
Alala, III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are
pleased to report a slight increase in NAV per share during the
second quarter of 2020, while generating $51.1 million of liquidity
through repayments and the wind down of CSLF II. The $95.2
million of cash at quarter end will allow us to support our
existing portfolio investments, evaluate new investment
opportunities, reduce leverage by the repayment of scheduled
maturities and the prepayment of other debt, and provide for
general working capital needs.”
Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results
During the second quarter of 2020, the Company originated $12.5
million of new investments, and received $51.1 million of
repayments. Repayments included $13.1 million from the wind
down of the Company’s investment in CSLF II, $17.8 million in full
repayment of the first and second lien debt investments in Flavors
Holdings, Inc., and $20.2 million in various other repayments.
Total investment income was $7.0 million for the second quarter
of 2020, compared to $11.6 million in the second quarter of
2019. Interest and fee income were $4.0 million lower in
second quarter of 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2019,
the result of lower average debt investments outstanding and the
impact of repayments and non-accrual investments.
Payment-in-kind income and dividend income, collectively, declined
by $0.6 million, primarily due the wind down of CSLF II during the
second quarter of 2020.
Total expenses for the second quarter of 2020 were $7.6 million,
relatively unchanged from the comparable period in 2019.
During the second quarter of 2020, the Company recorded $1.1
million in one-time deferred financing charges related to the early
termination of its senior secured credit facility.
Net realized losses totaled $13.3 million for the second quarter
of 2020, compared to $15.1 million of net realized losses for the
second quarter of 2019. Net realized losses had an immaterial
impact to NAV per share during the second quarter of 2020, as
realized amounts were generally in line with prior fair value
amounts.
Net unrealized appreciation totaled $17.0 million, or $1.04 per
share, for the second quarter of 2020, compared to net unrealized
depreciation of $17.4 million for the second quarter of 2019.
The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was
$3.1 million for the second quarter of 2020, or $0.19 per share,
compared to a net decrease of $29.1 million, or $1.81 per share,
for the same period in 2019.
Investment Portfolio
As of June 30, 2020, our portfolio consisted of 37 companies

the portfolio, second lien debt investments represented 13.3% of
the portfolio, and equity/warrant investments represented 19.3% of
the portfolio, based on fair values.
At June 30, 2020, the Company had five debt investments on

Subsequent Events
