Highlights for the Quarter: During the
quarter ended September 30, 2015, the following significant events
occurred:
- Portfolio Activity:
- Invested $20.9 million through a combination of secured first
lien debt and preferred equity in one new portfolio company and
acquired a $13.0 million secured second lien debt investment in one
new portfolio company as part of a restructuring and sale of an
existing portfolio company.
- Exited one investment, which resulted in the repayment of $1.8
million of preferred equity at cost and dividend income of $1.5
million.
- Recurring Distributions: Paid monthly
cash distributions to common and preferred stockholders for each of
July, August, and September 2015. The Company paid $0.0625 per
common share, per month; $0.1484375 per share, per month for the
Company's 7.125% Series A Cumulative Term Preferred Stock ("Series
A Term Preferred Stock"); $0.140625 per share, per month for the
Company's 6.75% Series B Cumulative Term Preferred Stock ("Series B
Term Preferred Stock"); and $0.135417 per share, per month for the
Company's 6.50% Series C Cumulative Term Preferred Stock ("Series C
Term Preferred Stock").
Second Quarter
Results: Net Investment Income for
the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015, was $6.0
million, or $0.20 per share, and $5.2 million, or $0.17 per share,
respectively, an increase of 16.6%. The increase in net
investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, as
compared to the prior quarter, was primarily due to a $1.0 million
increase in investment income driven by a higher weighted-average
outstanding balance of our interest bearing portfolio during the
quarter ended September 30, 2015. This increase was partially
offset by a $0.2 million increase in net expenses, primarily as a
result of preferred stock dividend expense on the Series C Term
Preferred Stock issued in May 2015.
Net Asset Value per share for the quarter ended September 30,
2015 decreased to $9.05, as compared to $9.24 as of June 30,
2015. The quarter over quarter decrease was primarily due to a
$2.7 million realized loss, largely due to the restructuring and
subsequent sale of one of our portfolio companies, as well as $3.4
million in net unrealized depreciation on investments recorded
during the period.
Subsequent Events: After September 30,
2015, the following significant events occurred:
