Senior Leadership Promotions to Align with Enhanced Strategy

New York, NY — August 2, 2022 — Apollo Investment Corporation (NASDAQ: AINV), (the “Company” or the “BDC”) today announced several transformative changes which reinforce the Company’s position as a senior secured middle market business development company creating an institutional-quality offering with an attractive dividend yield available to a broad universe of investors. These announcements illustrate the broader strategic commitment of Apollo Global Management (“Apollo”) (NYSE: APO) to investor alignment, product innovation, and playing a leading role in the democratization of finance.

• To support the BDC’s senior secured investment strategy and allow participation in more senior secured assets that are expected to produce attractive risk-adjusted returns for shareholders, the Company established a new industry-leading fee structure among listed BDCs, with substantial permanent reductions to management and incentive fees. MidCap Financial originates a significant amount of lower yielding senior secured loans that previously have been accessible largely only to institutional investors. Historically, MidCap Financial¹ and Apollo as its manager³ have predominantly originated assets on behalf of U.S. pensions and other global institutional investors. With the reduced fee structure, the BDC will be able to participate in a broader universe of MidCap Financial-originated senior secured loans, while producing similar to enhanced expected shareholder economics.

¹  MidCap Financial refers to MidCap FinCo Designated Activity Company, a designated activity company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Ireland, and its subsidiaries, including MidCap Financial Services, LLC. MidCap Financial is not an investment adviser, subadviser or fiduciary to the Company or to the Company’s Investment Adviser. MidCap Financial is not obligated to take into account the Company’s interests (or those of other potential participants in its originations) when originating loans across its platform.

²  On August 1, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the base distribution to $0.32 per share for the quarter ending June 30, 2022. The distribution is payable on October 11, 2022 to stockholders of record as of September 20, 2022. There can be no assurances that the Board will continue to declare a base distribution of $0.32 per share.

³  MidCap Financial is managed by Apollo Capital Management, L.P., a subsidiary of Apollo Global Management, Inc., pursuant to an investment management agreement between Apollo Capital Management, L.P. and MidCap FinCo Designated Activity Company.

• MidCap Financial has made a $30 million primary equity investment in the BDC at net asset value, representing a significant premium to the current market price. This investment serves to i) validate the value of the BDC’s senior investment strategy, ii) provide the BDC with dry powder to invest in loans originated by MidCap Financial, and iii) create a strong alignment of interests with the BDC’s performance.

• MidCap Financial, which is managed by Apollo, is one of the world’s leading middle market origination businesses, with over $21 billion of annual originations.⁴ The business is led by an experienced management team that has worked together over 20 years and has, what the Company considers to be, an exceptionally strong track record.

• Rebrands to MidCap Financial Investment Corporation reflecting the BDC’s investment strategy of primarily investing in loans originated by MidCap Financial; ticker will change to “MFIC”.⁵

• Appointed Howard T. Widra, Apollo’s Head of Direct Origination, to Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors.

• Promoted Tanner Powell to Chief Executive Officer, Ted McNulty to President, and Kristin Hester to Chief Legal Officer.

Mr. Howard Widra, the Company’s Executive Chairman commented, “Over the last several years, we have repositioned the BDC’s portfolio to have a senior secured orientation. Today’s announcements reinforce and support the BDC’s position as a pure play senior secured middle market BDC. The new fee structure significantly reduces our cost of capital which will allow us to invest across a larger universe of MidCap Financial-originated loans, which are available to us through Apollo’s management of MidCap Financial, while delivering an attractive dividend yield to our shareholders.    MidCap Financial is also making an aligning primary equity investment in the BDC at NAV. We believe today’s announcements have all the hallmarks of what we consider to be best-in-class investor alignment and illustrate how Apollo is positioning itself at the forefront of the democratization of finance, allowing greater individual access to alternatives.”

Mr. Howard Widra continued, “Today’s promotions are well-deserved and a recognition of the contributions that Tanner, Ted, and Kristin have each made to the BDC over the years. Tanner and Ted are both proven leaders with considerable expertise and experience in private credit investing and have been integral to the BDC’s repositioning efforts. Kristin has been a senior member of our legal team since 2015 and has provided valuable legal support for the Company’s strategic initiatives and operations over the years. I’d also like to thank Joe Glatt for his great work on behalf the Company over the years and congratulate him on his own promotion. As Executive Chairman, I look forward to continuing to work closely with Tanner, Ted, and Kristin as the BDC takes this next step.”

⁴  Based on last twelve months as of June 30, 2022.

⁵  Name and ticker change will be effective on or around August 12, 2022.

Mr. Tanner Powell, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Apollo’s unique relationship with MidCap Financial enables the BDC to have access to MidCap Financial’s high-quality origination volume, which we believe is a distinct competitive advantage over many other BDCs. MidCap Financial is a well-established provider of senior debt solutions to middle market companies and has what we believe to be an exceptionally strong track record. The change in the company name reflects our go forward strategy.” Mr. Tanner Powell continued, “We are pleased to increase our quarterly base distribution to $0.32 per share which reflects what we believe is a conservative estimate of the earnings power of the portfolio once fully deployed in our go forward strategy.”

Public Shareholder Access to Institutional-Quality Private Credit at New Industry-Leading Fee Structure

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) and the Company’s investment adviser have established a new industry-leading fee structure among listed BDCs to support the Company’s senior secured investment strategy and make institutional-quality senior secured assets available to public shareholders. MidCap Financial originates a significant amount of senior secured first lien loans that were previously below the BDC’s target asset spread. With a reduced fee structure, the BDC will be able to participate in a broader universe of MidCap Financial-originated senior secured loans. Apollo⁶ will continue to serve as the investment adviser of the BDC and will select and underwrite investments on behalf of the Company under the same investment process and standards.

The Company’s base management fee has been permanently reduced to 1.75% on net assets (i.e., equity) from the equivalent of approximately 3.4% on net assets. In other words, the base management fee rate, expressed in terms of gross assets, has been reduced from approximately 1.40% on gross assets, to the equivalent of approximately 0.75% on gross assets.⁷ Beyond the nearly halving of management fees in the aggregate, the shift to basing management fees on net assets, rather than gross assets, provides greater alignment and focus on net asset value versus leverage.

The incentive fee on income has also been permanently reduced from 20% to 17.5%. The performance threshold remains 7% and there is no change to the total return requirement or catch-up provision. The changes to the fee structure will be effective for the period beginning January 1, 2023.

MidCap Financial Makes Aligning Primary Equity Investment in the BDC at Net Asset Value

MidCap Financial has invested $30 million in equity in the BDC at net asset value, representing a significant premium to the current market price. The Company’s net asset value per share was $15.52⁸ as of June 30, 2022. Accordingly, the Company will issue approximately 1.93 million new shares in connection with this transaction which is expected to close in the next week. Pro forma for this investment, MidCap Financial will own approximately 3.0% of the BDC’s common stock. All shares issued in connection with this transaction will be subject to a minimum two-year hold period.

⁶  Apollo Investment Management, L.P., an affiliate of Apollo will continue to serve as the Company’s investment adviser.

⁷  Prior to this reduction, the base management fee was 1.5% on gross assets financed using leverage up to 1.0x debt-to-equity and 1.0% on gross assets financed using leverage over 1.0x debt-to-equity. For the comparisons presented, a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.40x is assumed.

⁸  The NAV per share figure is rounded for presentation purposes.
