SSF.UN Symphony Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund

(TSX: SSF.UN) Symphony Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund (the “Fund”) is pleased to announce an overnight treasury offering of class A and class F units (the “Class A Units” and “Class F Units”, respectively). Gross proceeds of the offering are expected to be approximately $5.5 million. The offering is expected to close on or about June 9, 2022 and is subject to certain closing conditions. The Fund has granted the Agents (as defined below) an over-allotment option, exercisable for 30 days following the closing date of the offering, to purchase up to an additional 15% of the aggregate number of Class A Units issued at the closing of the offering.

The Class A Units were offered at a price of $7.65 per Class A Unit. The Class F Units were offered at a price of $7.5259 per Class F Unit. Class F Units are designed for clients of registered brokers, dealers and advisors with fee-based accounts. Class F Units will be converted into Class A Units which are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) on a one-to-one basis immediately upon the closing of the offering. Accordingly, investors purchasing the Class F Units will upon closing of the offering become holders of Class A Units listed as SSF.UN on the TSX.

The Fund offers a $0.51 per unit per annum distribution on its Class A Units, paid monthly, which represents a cash distribution rate of 6.7% per annum based on the Class A Unit issue price. The Unit offering price was determined so as to be non-dilutive to the most recently calculated net asset value per Class A Unit (calculated as at May 31, 2022), as adjusted for distributions payable prior to or upon settlement of the offering.

The syndicate of agents for the offering was led by RBC Capital Markets, CIBC Capital Markets, National Bank Financial Inc., and TD Securities Inc., and included BMO Capital Markets, Scotiabank, Canaccord Genuity Corp., Raymond James Ltd., Hampton Securities Limited, iA Private Wealth Inc., Echelon Wealth Partners Inc., Manulife Securities Incorporated, Research Capital Corporation, and Richardson Wealth Limited.

The Fund’s investment objectives are to provide monthly distributions to unitholders, and to preserve capital. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing the property and assets of the Fund in an actively managed diversified portfolio consisting primarily of short duration senior secured floating rate corporate loans typically issued by non-investment grade companies (“Senior Loans”). Brompton Funds Limited (the “Manager”), the manager of the Fund, believes Senior Loans offer a potentially higher level of income generation and lower interest rate risk compared to traditional fixed income asset classes. The Fund employs leverage of up to 40% of its total assets for the purposes of acquiring or obtaining exposure to additional assets for the Fund’s portfolio and such other short term funding purposes as may be determined by the Manager from time to time and in accordance with Fund’s investment strategy.
