On September 16,
2019, the Company completed its acquisition of Golub Capital
Investment Corporation ("GCIC"). The merger was accounted for under
the asset acquisition method of accounting in accordance with
Accounting Standards Codification 805-50, Business Combinations —
Related Issues. Under asset acquisition accounting, where the
consideration paid to GCIC's stockholders exceeded the relative
fair values of the assets acquired, the premium paid by the Company
was allocated to the cost of the GCIC assets acquired by the
Company pro-rata based on their relative fair value. Immediately
following the acquisition of GCIC, the Company recorded its assets
at their respective fair values and, as a result, the purchase
premium allocated to the cost basis of the GCIC assets acquired was
immediately recognized as unrealized depreciation on the Company's
Consolidated Statement of Operations. The purchase premium
allocated to investments in loan securities acquired from GCIC will
amortize over the life of the loans through interest income with a
corresponding reversal of the unrealized depreciation on such loans
acquired through their ultimate disposition. The purchase premium
allocated to investments in equity securities will not amortize
over the life of the equity securities through interest income and,
assuming no subsequent change to the fair value of the GCIC equity
securities acquired and disposition of such equity securities at
fair value, the Company will recognize a realized loss with a
corresponding reversal of the unrealized depreciation upon
disposition of the GCIC equity securities acquired.
|
As a supplement to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP") financial measures, the Company is providing the following
non-GAAP financial measures that it believes are useful for the
reasons described below:
- "Adjusted Net Investment Income" and "Adjusted Net
Investment Income Per Share" – excludes the amortization of the
purchase premium and the accrual for the capital gain incentive fee
required under GAAP (including the portion of such accrual that is
not payable under the Company's investment advisory agreement) from
net investment income calculated in accordance with GAAP.
- "Adjusted Net Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss)" and
"Adjusted Net Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss) Per Share"
– excludes the unrealized loss resulting from the purchase premium
write-down and the corresponding reversal of the unrealized loss
from the amortization of the premium from the determination of
realized and unrealized gain/(loss) in accordance with GAAP.
- "Adjusted Net Income/(Loss)" and "Adjusted
Earnings/(Loss) Per Share" – calculates net income and earnings
per share based on Adjusted Net Investment Income and Adjusted Net
Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss). "Adjusted earnings per share"
also excludes the impact of the retroactive adjustment to the
weighted average shares calculation due to the bonus element of the
rights offering and the resulting impact on earnings per
share.
The Company believes that excluding the financial impact of the
purchase premium write down in the above non-GAAP financial
measures is useful for investors as it is a non-cash expense/loss
resulting from the acquisition of GCIC and is one method the
Company uses to measure its financial condition and results of
operations. In addition, the Company believes excluding the accrual
of the capital gain incentive fee in the above non-GAAP financial
measures is useful as it includes the portion of such accrual that
is not contractually payable under the terms of the Company's
investment advisory agreement with GC Advisors. Finally, the
Company believes excluding the impact of the retroactive adjustment
to the weighted average shares calculation due to the bonus element
of the rights offering and the resulting impact on per share data
is useful for investors as it presents per share financial data
that is consistent with what was previously reported.
Fourth Fiscal Quarter 2021 Highlights
- Net investment income per share for the quarter ended
September 30, 2021 was $0.27 as compared to $0.25 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Excluding $0.03 per share in purchase premium amortization
from the GCIC acquisition, Adjusted Net Investment Income Per
Share1 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $0.30. This compares to Adjusted Net Investment
Income Per Share1 of $0.29
for the quarter ended June 30, 2021
when excluding $0.04 per share in
purchase premium amortization from the GCIC acquisition.
- Net realized and unrealized gain per share for the quarter
ended September 30, 2021 was
$0.15. Adjusted Net Realized and
Unrealized Gain Per Share1 was $0.12 when excluding the $0.03 per share reversal of net realized loss and
unrealized depreciation resulting from the amortization of the
purchase premium. The Adjusted Net Realized and Unrealized Gain Per
Share1 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 primarily resulted from a
continued reversal in unrealized depreciation in the fair value of
some of our portfolio company investments that was recognized
during the quarter ended March 31,
2020, primarily due to the adverse economic effects of the
COVID-19 pandemic. The partial reversal in unrealized depreciation
for the quarter ended September 30,
2021 was primarily attributable to portfolio companies that
generally continued to perform well. Strong performance across the
portfolio was reflected in our internal performance ratings that
have largely returned to pre-COVID levels. For additional analysis,
please refer to the Quarter Ended 09.30.21 Investor Presentation available on the
Investor Resources link on the homepage of the Company's website
(www.golubcapitalbdc.com) under Events/Presentations. The Investor
Presentation was also filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as an Exhibit to a Form 8-K. These results compare to
net realized and unrealized gain per share of $0.24 during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted Net Realized and
Unrealized Gain Per Share1 for the quarter ended
June 30, 2021 was $0.20 when excluding the $0.04 per share reversal of net realized loss and
unrealized loss resulting from the amortization of the purchase
premium.
- Earnings per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $0.42 as compared to $0.49 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted Earnings Per
Share1 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 was $0.42 as compared to $0.49 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021.
- Net asset value per share increased to $15.19 at September 30,
2021 from $15.06 at
June 30, 2021.
- On September 29, 2021, we paid a
quarterly distribution of $0.29 per
share and on November 19, 2021, our
board of directors declared a quarterly distribution of
$0.30 per share, which is payable on
December 30, 2021 to stockholders of
record as of December 10, 2021.

Total investments in portfolio companies at fair value were
$4,894.9 million at
September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, total
assets were $5,164.9 million, net
assets were $2,582.7 million and net
asset value per share was $15.19.
Consolidated Results of Operations
For the fourth fiscal quarter of 2021, the Company reported GAAP
net income and Adjusted Net Income1 of $71.6 million or $0.42 per share. GAAP net investment income
was $46.3 million or $0.27 per share and Adjusted Net Investment
Income1 was $51.7 million
or $0.30 per share. GAAP net
realized and unrealized gain was $25.3
million or $0.15 per share and
Adjusted Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss)1 was
$20.2 million or $0.12 per share.
Net income can vary substantially from period to period due to
various factors, including the level of new investment commitments,
the recognition of realized gains and losses and unrealized
appreciation and depreciation, including as a result of the effects
of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, quarterly comparisons of net
income may not be meaningful.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's liquidity and capital resources are derived from
the Company's debt securitizations (also known as collateralized
loan obligations, or CLOs), unsecured notes, revolving credit
facilities and cash flow from operations. The Company's primary
uses of funds from operations include investments in portfolio
companies and payment of fees and other expenses that the Company
incurs. The Company has used, and expects to continue to use, its
debt securitizations, unsecured notes, revolving credit facilities,
proceeds from its investment portfolio and proceeds from offerings
of its securities and its dividend reinvestment plan to finance its
investment objectives.
As of September 30, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and
foreign currencies of $181.1 million,
restricted cash, cash equivalents and foreign currencies of
$63.3 million and $2,569.2 million of debt outstanding. As of
September 30, 2021, subject to leverage and borrowing base
restrictions, we had approximately $77.9
million of remaining commitments and $77.9 million of availability, in the aggregate,
on our revolving credit facilities with various banks. In addition,
as of September 30, 2021, we had $100.0
million of remaining commitments and availability on our
unsecured line of credit with GC Advisors.
On August 3, 2021, we issued
$350.0 million of unsecured notes,
which bear a fixed interest rate of 2.050% (yield to maturity of
2.274%) and mature on February 15,
2027 (the "2027 Unsecured Notes").
On August 26, 2021, we redeemed
all of the $189.0 million of notes
issued under the $330.5 million term
debt securitization that we completed on August 26, 2020 (the "2020 Debt Securitization")
which were priced at 3-month LIBOR + 2.44%.
On September 1, 2021, we redeemed
all $97.0 million of outstanding U.S.
Small Business Administration (the "SBA") debentures issued by our
consolidated subsidiary, GC SBIC VI, L.P ("SBIC VI") and on
September 21, 2021, SBIC VI
surrendered its license to operate as a small business investment
company to the SBA.
On October 13, 2021, we issued an
additional $200.0 million in
aggregate principal amount of our unsecured notes due 2026 (the
"2026 Unsecured Notes"), which bear a fixed interest rate of
2.500%, and the new 2026 Unsecured Notes have a yield to maturity
of 2.667%. The new 2026 Unsecured Notes have the same terms as the
original issuance of the 2026 Unsecured Notes. Upon issuance of the
new 2026 Unsecured Notes, the outstanding aggregate principal
amount of the 2026 Unsecured Notes is $600.0
million.
On October 15, 2021, we issued an
additional $100.0 million in
aggregate principal amount of our unsecured notes due 2024 (the
"2024 Unsecured Notes"), which bear a fixed interest rate of
3.375%, and the new 2024 Unsecured Notes have a yield to maturity
of 1.809%. The new 2024 Unsecured Notes have the same terms as the
original issuance of the 2024 Unsecured Notes. Upon issuance of the
new 2024 Unsecured Notes, the outstanding aggregate principal
amount of the 2024 Unsecured Notes is $500.0
million.
On November 19, 2021, we amended
our revolving credit facility with JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A., as
administrative agent, to, among other things, increase the
accordion feature that allows us to increase the total facility
size to $1.5 billion from
$712.5 million. In addition, we
entered into agreements on October 14,
2021 and November 23, 2021 to
increase the aggregate commitments outstanding under the credit
facility to $687.5 million and
$1.0375 billion, respectively, from
$475.0 million as of September 30, 2021.
Portfolio and Asset Quality
GC Advisors regularly assesses the risk profile of each of the
Company's investments and rates each of them based on an internal
system developed by Golub Capital and its affiliates. This system
is not generally accepted in our industry or used by our
competitors. It is based on the following categories, which we
refer to as GC Advisors' internal performance ratings:
|
|
|
Internal
Performance Ratings
|
Rating
|
|
Definition
|
5
|
|
Involves the least
amount of risk in our portfolio. The borrower is performing above
expectations, and the trends and risk factors are generally
favorable.
|
4
|
|
Involves an
acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of
origination. The borrower is generally performing as expected, and
the risk factors are neutral to favorable.
|
3
|
|
Involves a borrower
performing below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk
has increased somewhat since origination. The borrower could be out
of compliance with debt covenants; however, loan payments are
generally not past due.
|
2
|
|
Involves a borrower
performing materially below expectations and indicates that the
loan's risk has increased materially since origination. In addition
to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt
covenants, loan payments could be past due (but generally not more
than 180 days past due).
|
1
|
|
Involves a borrower
performing substantially below expectations and indicates that the
loan's risk has substantially increased since origination. Most or
all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are
substantially delinquent. Loans rated 1 are not anticipated to be
repaid in full and we will reduce the fair market value of the loan
to the amount we anticipate will be recovered.
|
Our internal performance ratings do not constitute any rating of
investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization or represent or reflect any third-party assessment of
any of our investments. For additional analysis on the
Company's internal performance ratings as of September 30,
2021 and the impact from COVID-19, please refer to the Quarter
Ended 09.30.21 Investor Presentation
available on Investors Resources link on the homepage of the
Company's website (www.golubcapitalbdc.com) under
