(in thousands, except share data)

 

Endnote Explanations for the Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012

 

(1)

 

The securities in which Prospect Capital Corporation (“we”, “us” or “our”) has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act.” These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

 

 

 

(2)

 

Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, two of our portfolio investments, Allied Defense Group, Inc. (“Allied”) and Dover Saddlery, Inc. (“Dover”) were publicly traded and classified as Level 1 within the valuation hierarchy established by Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the fair value of our remaining portfolio investments was determined using significant unobservable inputs. ASC 820 classifies such inputs used to measure fair value as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. Our investments in money market funds are classified as Level 2. See Note 2 and Note 3 within the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

 

 

 

(3)

 

Security, or portion thereof, is held by Prospect Capital Funding LLC, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and is pledged as collateral for the revolving credit facility and such security is not available as collateral to our general creditors (See Note 4). The market values of these investments at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 were $642,128 and $783,384, respectively; they represent 18.5% and 35.4% of total investments at fair value, respectively. Prospect Capital Funding LLC (See Note 1), our wholly-owned subsidiary, holds an aggregate market value of $642,128 and $783,384 of these investments as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively.

 

 

 

(4)

 

Security, or portion thereof, has a floating interest rate which may be subject to a LIBOR or PRIME floor. Stated interest rate was in effect at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.

 

 

 

(5)

 

Ellett Brothers, LLC., Evans Sports, Inc., Jerry’s Sports, Inc., Simmons Gun Specialties, Inc., Bonitz Brothers, Inc. and Outdoor Sports Headquarters, Inc., are joint borrowers on our second lien loan.  United Sporting Companies, Inc., is a parent guarantor of this debt investment.

 

 

 

(6)

 

During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, we created two new entities, Coalbed Inc. and Coalbed LLC, to foreclose on the outstanding senior secured loan and assigned rights and interests of Conquest Cherokee, LLC (“Conquest”), as a result of the deterioration of Conquest’s financial performance and inability to service debt payments. We own 1,000 shares of common stock in Coalbed Inc., representing 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock. Coalbed Inc., in turn owns 100% of the membership interest in Coalbed LLC.

 

 

 

 

 

On October 21, 2009, Coalbed LLC foreclosed on the loan formerly made to Conquest. On January 19, 2010, as part of the Manx rollup, the Coalbed LLC assets and loan were assigned to Manx, the holding company. On June 30, 2012, Manx reassigned our investment in Coalbed to Wolf Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Wolf”), a newly-formed, separately owned holding company. Our Board of Directors set value at zero for the loan position in Coalbed LLC investment as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.

 

 

 

(7)

 

In addition to the stated returns, the net profits interest held will be realized upon sale of the borrower or a sale of the interests.

 

 

 

(8)

 

During the quarter ended December 31, 2011, our ownership of Change Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. (“CCEHI”) and Change Clean Energy, Inc. (“CCEI”), Freedom Marine Holding, Inc. (“Freedom Marine”) and Yatesville Coal Holdings, Inc. (“Yatesville”) was transferred to Energy Solutions Holdings Inc. (f/k/a Gas Solutions Holdings Inc.) (“Energy Solutions”) to consolidate all of our energy holdings under one management team. We own 100% of Energy Solutions.

 

 

 

(9)

 

Entity was formed as a result of the debt restructuring of ESA Environmental Specialist, Inc. In early 2009, we foreclosed on the two loans on non-accrual status and purchased the underlying personal and real property. We own 1,000 shares of common stock in The Healing Staff (“THS”), f/k/a Lisamarie Fallon, Inc. representing 100% ownership. We own 1,500 shares of Vets Securing America, Inc. (“VSA”), representing 100% ownership.

 

 

 

 

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we determined that the impairment of Integrated Contract Services, Inc. (“ICS”) was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized loss of $12,198 for the amount that the amortized cost exceeded the fair market value. Our remaining investment in The Healing Staff (“THS”), an affiliate of ICS, was valued at zero as of December 31, 2012 and continues to provide staffing solutions for health care facilities and security staffing.

The assets of the three companies were brought under new common management. We funded $2,800 at closing to Manx to provide for working capital. A portion of our loans to AEH and Coalbed was exchanged for Manx preferred equity, while our AEH equity interest was converted into Manx common stock. There was no change to fair value at the time of restructuring. On June 30, 2012, Manx reassigned our investments in Coalbed and AEH to Wolf, a newly-formed, separately owned holding company. We continue to fully reserve any income accrued for Manx.

Chip Holdings, Inc. is the parent company of Shearer’s Foods, Inc. and has 67,936 shares outstanding before adjusting for management options.  On November 7, 2012, we redeemed our membership interests in Mistral Chip Holdings, LLC, Mistral Chip Holdings 2, LLC and Mistral Chip Holdings 3, LLC in connection with the sale of Shearer’s, receiving $6,022 of net proceeds and realizing a gain of approximately $2,027 on the redemption

 

(18)         The overriding royalty interests held receive payments at the stated rates based upon operations of the borrower.

 

(19)         On December 31, 2009, we sold our investment in Aylward Enterprises, LLC. AWCNC, LLC is the remaining holding company with zero assets. Our remaining outstanding debt after the sale was written off on December 31, 2009 and no value has been assigned to the equity position as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.

 

(20)         We own a warrant to purchase 2,650,588 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, 441,176 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and 30,918 shares of Voting Common Stock in Boxercraft Incorporated.

(22)         Certain investments that we have determined are not “qualifying” assets under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, we may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of our total assets. We monitor the status of these assets on an ongoing basis.

Endnote Explanations for the Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 (Continued)

 

(23)         On January 1, 2010, we restructured our senior secured and bridge loans investment in Iron Horse Coiled Tubing, Inc. (“Iron Horse”) and we reorganized Iron Horse’s management structure. The senior secured loan and bridge loan were replaced with three new tranches of senior secured debt.

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2012
(Unaudited)
(In thousands, except share and per share data)

 

Note 1. Organization

 

References herein to “we”, “us” or “our” refer to Prospect Capital Corporation (“Prospect”) and its subsidiary unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

 

We are a closed-end investment company that has filed an election to be treated as a Business Development Company (“BDC”), under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we have qualified and have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. We invest primarily in senior and subordinated debt and equity of companies in need of capital for acquisitions, divestitures, growth, development, recapitalizations and other purposes.

 

Prospect Capital Funding, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, is a wholly-owned subsidiary which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are collateral for our credit facility.

 

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The following are significant accounting policies consistently applied by us:

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X. The financial results of our portfolio investments are not consolidated in the financial statements.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made in the presentation of prior notes to consolidated financial statements to conform to the presentation as of and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of GAAP financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, creditworthiness of our portfolio companies and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

Under the 1940 Act rules, the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us. Our financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of PCF, our only wholly-owned, closely-managed subsidiary that is also an investment company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

33



 

Investment Classification

 

We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. We classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person.

 

Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments in other, non-security financial instruments are recorded on the basis of subscription date or redemption date, as applicable. Amounts for investments recognized or derecognized but not yet settled are reported as receivables for investments sold and payables for investments purchased, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

 

Investment Risks

 

Our investments are subject to a variety of risks. Those risks include the following:

 

Market Risk

 

Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by a change in the fair value of the financial instrument.

 

Credit Risk

 

Credit risk represents the risk we would incur if the counterparties failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their agreements with Prospect. Our investments in collateralized loan obligation funds (“CLOs”) are subject to default risk of the underlying portfolio of loans.

 

Prepayment Risk

 

Many of the our debt investments allow for prepayment of principal without penalty. Downward changes in interest rates may cause prepayments to occur at a faster than expected rate, thereby effectively shortening the maturity of the security and making the security less likely to be an income producing instrument.

 

Investment Valuation

 

Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below.

 

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations.

 

For most of our investments, market quotations are not available. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

 

1)

Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with the independent valuation firms engaged by our Board of Directors;

 

 

2)

the independent valuation firms conduct independent appraisals and make their own independent assessment;

 

 

3)

the audit committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses the preliminary valuation with Prospect Capital Management (the “Investment Adviser”) proposing values within the valuation range presented by the independent valuation firms; and

 

 

4)

the Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms and the

 

34



 

 

audit committee.

 

Investments are valued utilizing a shadow bond approach, a market approach, an income approach, a liquidation approach, or a combination of approaches, as appropriate. The shadow bond and market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted) calculated based on an appropriate discount rate. The measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, the principal market and enterprise values, among other factors.

 

We invest in debt and equity positions of CLOs which are a form of securitization in which the cash flows of a portfolio of loans are pooled and passed on to different classes of owners in various tranches. Our CLO investments are derived from portfolios of corporate debt securities which are generally risk rated from BB to B depending on the tranche. The investments are classified as ASC 820 level 3 securities, and are valued using discounted cash flow model. The valuations have been accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view. For each security, the most appropriate valuation approach has been chosen from alternative approaches to ensure the most accurate valuation for each security.  To value a CLO, both the assets and liabilities of the CLO capital structure have been modeled. Our valuation agent uses a waterfall engine to store the collateral data, including the collateral cash flows from the assets, and distributions of the cash flow to the liability structure based on the payment priorities, and discounts them back using proper discount rates that incorporate all the risk factors. The main risk factors are: default risk, interest rate risk, downgrade risk, and credit spread risk.

 

ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

 

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The changes to GAAP from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, the framework for measuring fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by other standards. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted.

 

Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

 

ASC Subtopic 820-10-05-1, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASC 820-10-05-1”) permits an entity to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many assets and liabilities. We have elected not to value other assets and liabilities at fair value as would be permitted by ASC 820-10-05-1.

 

Senior Convertible Notes

 

We have recorded the Senior Convertible Notes (See Note 5) at their contractual amounts. The Senior Convertible Notes were analyzed for any features that would require its accounting to be bifurcated and they were determined to be immaterial.

 

35



 

Revenue Recognition

 

Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.

 

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, closing and/or commitment fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Accretion of such purchase discounts or premiums is calculated by the effective interest method as of the purchase date and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties and unamortized loan origination, closing and commitment fees are recorded as interest income. The purchase discount for portfolio investments acquired from Patriot Capital Funding, Inc. (“Patriot”) was determined based on the difference between par value and fair market value as of December 2, 2009, and will continue to accrete until maturity or repayment of the respective loans.

 

Interest income from investments in the residual interest class of security of CLO Funds (typically income notes or subordinated notes) is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing assumed cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40-35, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. Adjustments resulting from recording the interest income based on the effective yield are recorded to the cost basis of the investment. We monitor the expected cash inflows from our CLO equity investments, including the expected residual payments and the effective yield is determined and updated periodically.

 

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

Structuring fees and similar fees are recognized as income as earned, usually when paid. Structuring fees, net profits interests and overriding royalty interests are included in other income.

 

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will not be collected in accordance with the terms of the investment. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current.

 

Federal and State Income Taxes

 

We have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, applicable to regulated investment companies. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gains to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.

 

If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains exceed the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income. At December 31, 2012, we have elected to retain a portion of our annual taxable income and have accrued $4,500 for the excise tax that will be paid with the filing of the return.

 

If we fail to satisfy the annual distribution requirement or otherwise fail to qualify as a RIC in any taxable year, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would we be required to make distributions. Distributions would generally be taxable to our individual and other non-corporate taxable stockholders as ordinary dividend income eligible for the reduced maximum rate for taxable years beginning before 2013 (but not for taxable years beginning thereafter, unless the relevant provisions are extended by legislation) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, provided certain holding period and other requirements are met. Subject to certain limitations under the Internal Revenue Code, corporate distributions would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. To qualify again to be taxed as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our shareholders our accumulated earnings and profits

 

36



 

attributable to non-RIC years reduced by an interest charge of 50% of such earnings and profits payable by us as an additional tax. In addition, if we failed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of ten years.

 

We follow ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. As of December 31, 2012 and for the three and six months then ended, we did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expense. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

 

Dividends and Distributions

 

Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount, if any, to be paid as a monthly dividend or distribution is approved by our Board of Directors quarterly and is generally based upon our management’s estimate of our earnings for the quarter. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.

 

Financing Costs

 

We record origination expenses related to our credit facility and Senior Convertible Notes, Senior Unsecured Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our “Senior Notes”), as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method for our revolving credit facility and the effective interest method for our Senior Notes, over the respective expected life.

 

We record registration expenses related to shelf filings as prepaid assets. These expenses consist principally of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registration fees, legal fees and accounting fees incurred. These prepaid assets will be charged to capital upon the receipt of an equity offering proceeds or charged to expense if no offering completed.

 

Guarantees and Indemnification Agreements

 

We follow ASC 460, Guarantees (“ASC 460”). ASC 460 elaborates on the disclosure requirements of a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, for those guarantees that are covered by ASC 460, the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees.

 

Per Share Information

 

Net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. In accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, convertible securities are not considered in the calculation of net assets per share.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 amends Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC 820”) by: (1) clarifying that the highest-and-best-use and valuation-premise concepts only apply to measuring the fair value of non-financial assets; (2) allowing a reporting entity to measure the fair value of the net asset or net liability position in a manner consistent with how market participants would price the net risk position, if certain criteria are met; (3) providing a framework for considering whether a premium or discount can be applied in a fair value measurement; (4) providing that the fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity is estimated from the perspective of a market participant that holds the identical item as an asset; and (5) expanding the qualitative and quantitative fair value

 

37



 

disclosure requirements. The expanded disclosures include, for Level 3 items, a description of the valuation process and a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those inputs if a change in those inputs would result in a significantly different fair value measurement. ASU 2011-4 also requires disclosures about the highest-and-best-use of a non-financial asset when this use differs from the asset’s current use and the reasons for such a difference. In addition, this ASU amends Accounting Standards Codification 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” to require disclosures to include any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These amendments were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the amended guidance in ASU 2011-04 did not have a significant effect on our financial statements. See Note 3 for the disclosure required by ASU 2011-04.

 

In August 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2012-03, Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 114 (“SAB No. 114”), Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (“ASU 2012-03”). The update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114 and is effective upon issuance. The adoption of the amended guidance in ASU 2012-03 did not have a significant effect on our financial statements.

 

In October 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements (“ASU 2012-04”). The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

For the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the net change in unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on the investments that use Level 3 inputs was ($67,286) and $42,165 for assets still held as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

The ranges of unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of our Level 3 investments were as follows:

 

 

 

As of December, 2012

 

As of June 30, 2012

 

EBITDA Multiples

 

3.8x to 13.0x

 

3.5x to 10.0x

 

Market Yields

 

5.7% to 35.0%

 

6.4% to 30.0%

 

CLO Discount Rates

 

9.9% to 17.9%

 

8.0% to 13.0%

 

 

The significant unobservable input used in the market approach of fair value measurement of our investments are the market multiples of earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of the comparable guideline public companies. The independent valuation firm selects a population of public companies for each investment with similar operations and attributes of the subject company. Using these guideline public companies’ data, a range of multiples of enterprise value to EBITDA is calculated. The independent valuation firm selects percentages from the range of multiples for purposes of determining the subject company’s estimated enterprise value based on said multiple and generally the latest twelve months EBITDA of the subject company (or other meaningful measure). Significant increases or decreases in the multiple will result in an increase or decrease in enterprise value, resulting in an increase or decrease in the fair value estimate of the equity investment.

 

The significant unobservable input used in the income approach of fair value measurement of our investments is the discount rate used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which include both future principal and interest payments. Significant increases or decreases in the discount rate would result in a decrease or increase in the fair value measurement. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates are the following factors: risk of default, rating of the investment and comparable company investments, and call provisions.

 

Changes in market yields, discount rates or EBITDA multiples, each in isolation, may change the fair value of certain of our investments. Generally, an increase in market yields or discount rates or decrease in EBITDA multiples may result in a decrease in the fair value of certain of our investments.

 

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are

generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it.

 

In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the valuations currently assigned.

 

As of December 31, 2012, the valuation methodology for Airmall changed to incorporate the income method (discounted cash flow analysis) in addition to the market method (public comparable company analysis) used in previous quarters. Management adopted the income method to incorporate current financial projections in recognition of the time elapsed since the initial acquisition of the company in June 2010. As a result of this change and in recognition of recent company performance we increased the fair value of our investment in AIRMALL to $49,752 as of December 31, 2012, a discount of $1,718 from its amortized cost, compared to the $3,788 unrealized depreciation recorded at June 30, 2012.

 

As of December 31, 2012, the valuation methodology for First Tower changed to incorporate the income method (discounted cash flow analysis) in addition to the market method (public comparable company analysis) used in previous quarters. Management adopted the income method in consideration of management forecasts not previously available. As a result of this change and in recognition of recent company performance we increased the fair value of our investment in First Tower to $310,409 as of December 31, 2012, a premium of $2,456 to its amortized cost, compared to $287,953 as of June 30, 2012, equal to its amortized cost at that time.

 

In December 2011, we completed a reorganization of Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc. renaming the company Energy Solutions and transferring ownership of other operating companies owned by us and operating within the energy industry. As part of the reorganization, our equity interests in Change Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. and Change Clean Energy, Inc., Freedom Marine Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of Energy Solutions (“Freedom Marine”) and Yatesville Coal Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of Energy Solutions (“Yatesville”), was transferred to Energy Solutions to consolidate all of our energy holdings under one management team strategically expanding Energy Solutions across energy sectors.

 

On January 4, 2012, Energy Solutions sold its gas gathering and processing assets (‘‘Gas Solutions’’) for a sale price of $199,805, adjusted for the final working capital settlement, including a potential earnout of $28,000 that will be paid based on the future performance of Gas Solutions. After expenses, including structuring fees of $9,966 paid to us, Energy Solutions received approximately $153,687 in cash and an additional $5,000 is being held in escrow. Currently, a portion of our loans to Energy Solutions remain outstanding and are collateralized by the cash held by Energy Solutions after the sale transaction. The sale of Gas Solutions by Energy Solutions has resulted in significant earnings and profits, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, at Energy Solutions for calendar year 2012. As a result, distributions from Energy Solutions to us will be required to be recognized as dividend income, in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies, as cash distributions are received from Energy Solutions to the extent there are current year earnings and profits sufficient to support such recognition. During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, Energy Solutions repaid $20,000 of senior secured debt. We received a $14,144 make-whole fee for early repayment of the outstanding loan, which was recorded as interest income during the three months ended December 31, 2012. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, we received distributions of $20,570 and $53,820 from Energy Solutions which were recorded as dividend income, respectively. Energy Solutions continues to hold $32,187 of cash for future investment and repayment of debt, of which $5,007 is currently held in escrow.

 

At December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, nine loan investments were on non-accrual status: Borga, Freedom Marine, H&M Oil and Gas, LLC, THS, a subsidiary of Integrated Contract Services, Inc. (“ICS”), Manx, Stryker Energy, LLC, Wind River Resources Corp. and Wind River II Corp., Wolf and Yatesville. The loan principal of these loans amounted to $162,064 and $171,149 as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. The fair value of these loans amounted to $38,985 and $43,641 as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. The fair values of these investments represent approximately 1.7% and 2.9% of our net assets as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the income foregone as a result of not accruing interest on non-accrual debt investments amounted to $6,629 and $5,598, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the income foregone as a result of not accruing interest on non-accrual debt investments amounted to $13,756 and $12,028, respectively.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2011, Deb Shops, Inc. (“Deb Shops”) filed for bankruptcy and a plan for reorganization was proposed. The plan was approved by the bankruptcy court and our debt position was eliminated with no payment to us. We determined that the impairment of Deb Shops was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized

 

43



 

loss of $14,607 during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 for the full amount of the amortized cost. The asset was completely written off when the plan of reorganization was approved.

 

On December 28, 2011, we made a secured debt investment of $37,218 to support the recapitalization of NRG Manufacturing, Inc. (“NRG”). After the financing, we received repayment of the $13,080 loan that was previously outstanding and a dividend of $6,711 as a result of our equity holdings. In addition, we sold 392 shares of NRG common stock held by us back to NRG for $13,266, realizing a gain of $12,131. Our remaining 408 shares of NRG common stock were sold on February 2, 2012.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we determined that the impairment of ICS was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized loss of $12,198 for the amount that the amortized cost exceeded the fair market value. Our remaining investment in THS, an affiliate of ICS, was valued at zero as of December 31, 2012 and continues to provide staffing solutions for health care facilities and security staffing.

 

The original cost basis of debt placements and equity securities acquired, including follow-on investments for existing portfolio companies, totaled $769,950 and $152,941 during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. These placements and acquisitions totaled $1,516,014 and $373,943 during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Debt repayments and sales of equity securities with a cost basis of $345,194 and $106,708 were received during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. These repayments and sales amounted to $501,542 and $152,763 during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, we recognized $655 and $939 of interest income due to purchase discount accretion from the assets acquired from Patriot. Included in the $655 recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2012 is $285 of normal accretion and $370 of accelerated accretion resulting from the repayment of Hudson Products Holdings, Inc. (“Hudson”). Included in the $939 recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2012 is $569 of normal accretion and $370 of accelerated accretion resulting from the repayment of Hudson.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, we recognized $1,548 and $2,385 of interest income due to purchase discount accretion from the assets acquired from Patriot, respectively. Included in the $1,548 recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2011 is $854 of normal accretion and $694 of accelerated accretion resulting from the repayment of Mac & Massey Holdings, LLC (“Mac & Massey”). Included in the $2,385 recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2011 is $1,691 of normal accretion and $694 of accelerated accretion resulting from the repayment of Mac & Massey.

 

On November 30, 2012 we made a secured second lien investment of $9,500 to support the recapitalization of R-V. As part of the recapitalization, we received a dividend of $11,073 for our investment in R-V’s common stock.

 

As of December 31, 2012, $1,082 of purchase discount from the assets acquired from Patriot remains to be accreted as interest income, of which $271 is expected to be amortized during the three months ending March 31, 2013.

 

As of December 31, 2012, $2,015,636 of our loans bear interest at floating rates, $1,986,247 of which have Libor floors ranging from 1.25% to 6.00%.

 

Undrawn committed revolvers incur commitment fees ranging from 0.50% to 2.00%. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, we have $188,367 and $180,646 of undrawn revolver commitments to our portfolio companies, respectively.

 

Note 4. Revolving Credit Agreements

 

On June 11, 2010, we closed an extension and expansion of our existing credit facility with a syndicate of lenders through PCF (the “2010 Facility”). The 2010 Facility, which had $325,000 total commitments as of June 30, 2011, included an accordion feature which allowed the Syndicated Facility to accept up to an aggregate total of $400,000 of commitments, a limit which was met on September 1, 2011. Interest on borrowings under the 2010 Facility was one-month Libor plus 325 basis points, subject to a minimum Libor floor of 100 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charged a fee on the unused portion of the 2010 Facility equal to either 75 basis points if at least half of the credit facility is used or 100 basis points otherwise.

On March 27, 2012, we renegotiated the Syndicated Facility and closed on an expanded five-year $650,000 revolving credit facility (the “2012 Facility”). The lenders have extended commitments of $552,500 under the 2012 Facility as of December 31, 2012. The 2012 Facility includes an accordion feature which allows commitments to be increased up to $650,000 in the aggregate. The revolving period of the 2012 Facility extends through March 2015, with an additional two year amortization period (with distributions allowed) after the completion of the revolving period. During such two year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the two year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders.

 

The 2012 Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements. The 2012 Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the 2012 Facility. The 2012 Facility also requires the maintenance of a minimum liquidity requirement. At December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants.

 

Interest on borrowings under the 2012 Facility is one-month Libor plus 275 basis points with no minimum Libor floor. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the 2012 Facility equal to either 50 basis points if at least half of the credit facility is drawn or 100 basis points otherwise. The 2012 Facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, we had $277,127 and $451,252, respectively, available to us for borrowing under our 2012 Facility, of which the amount outstanding was zero and $96,000, respectively. As additional investments that are eligible are transferred to PCF and pledged under the 2012 Facility, PCF will generate additional availability up to the commitment amount of $552,500. At December 31, 2012, the investments used as collateral for the 2012 Facility had an aggregate market value of $642,128, which represents 27.6% of our net assets. These assets have been transferred to PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which owns these investments and as such, these investments are not available to our general creditors. PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity and our wholly-owned subsidiary, holds all of these investments at market value as of December 31, 2012. The release of any assets from PCF requires the approval of the facility agent.

 

In connection with the origination and amendments of the 2012 Facility, we incurred $10,757 of fees, including $1,319 of fees carried over from the previous facility, which are being amortized over the term of the facility in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, of which $8,206 remains to be amortized as of December 31, 2012.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $2,227 and $4,689 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Syndicated Facility as interest expense, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $4,395 and $8,299 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Syndicated Facility as interest expense, respectively.

 

Note 5. Senior Convertible Notes

 

On December 21, 2010, we issued $150,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 6.25% senior convertible notes due 2015 (“2015 Notes”) for net proceeds (after deducting underwriting expenses) of approximately $145,200. Interest on the 2015 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15, at a rate of 6.25% per year, commencing June 15, 2011. The 2015 Notes mature on December 15, 2015 unless converted earlier. The 2015 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 88.0902 and 88.1429 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2015 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $11.35 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price in effect at December 31, 2012 was last calculated on the anniversary of the issuance (December 21, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the next anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2015 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.101125 per share, subject to adjustment.

 

On February 18, 2011, we issued $172,500 in aggregate principal amount of our 5.50% senior convertible notes due 2016 (“2016 Notes”) for net proceeds following underwriting expenses of approximately $167,325. Between January 30, 2012 and February 2, 2012, we repurchased $5,000 of our 2016 Notes at a price of 97.5, including commissions. The transactions resulted in our recognizing $10 of loss in the year ended June 30, 2012. Interest on the remaining $167,500 of 2016 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, at a rate of 5.50% per year, commencing August 15, 2011. The 2016 Notes mature on August 15, 2016 unless converted earlier. The 2016 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31,

 

45



 

2012 of 78.3699 and 78.3835 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2016 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.76 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price in effect at June 30, 2012 was last calculated on the anniversary of the issuance (February 14, 2011) and will next be adjusted on the next anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2016 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.101150 per share.

 

On April 16, 2012, we issued $130,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 5.375% senior convertible notes due 2017 (“2017 Notes”) for net proceeds following underwriting expenses of approximately $126,035. Interest on the 2017 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on October 15 and April 15, at a rate of 5.375% per year, commencing October 15, 2012. The 2017 Notes mature on October 15, 2017 unless converted earlier. The 2017 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 85.8442 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2017 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $11.65 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price has not been adjusted since the issuance (April 16, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the first anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2017 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.10150 per share.

 

On August 14, 2012, we issued $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 5.75% senior convertible notes due 2018 (“2018 Notes”) for net proceeds following underwriting expenses of approximately $193,600. Interest on the 2018 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, at a rate of 5.75% per year, commencing March 15, 2013. The 2018 Notes mature on March 15, 2018 unless converted earlier. The 2018 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 82.3451 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2018 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.14 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price has not been adjusted since the issuance (August 14, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the first anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2018 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.10160 per share.

 

On December 21, 2012, we issued $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior convertible notes due 2019 (the ‘‘2019 Notes’’) for net proceeds following underwriting and other expenses of approximately $193,600. Interest on the 2019 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15, at a rate of 5.875% per year, commencing July 15, 2013. The 2019 Notes mature on January 15, 2019 unless converted earlier. The 2019 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 79.7766 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.54 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price has not been adjusted since the issuance (December 21 2012) and will next be adjusted on the first anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2019 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.110025 per share.

 

In no event will the total number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion exceed 96.8992 per $1 principal amount of the 2015 Notes (the “conversion rate cap”), except that, to the extent we receive written guidance or a no-action letter from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Guidance”) permitting us to adjust the conversion rate in certain instances without regard to the conversion rate cap and to make the 2015 Notes convertible into certain reference property in accordance with certain reclassifications, business combinations, asset sales and corporate events by us without regard to the conversion rate cap, we will make such adjustments without regard to the conversion rate cap and will also, to the extent that we make any such adjustment without regard to the conversion rate cap pursuant to the Guidance, adjust the conversion rate cap accordingly. We will use our commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Guidance as promptly as practicable.

 

Prior to obtaining the Guidance, we will not engage in certain transactions that would result in an adjustment to the conversion rate increasing the conversion rate beyond what it would have been in the absence of such transaction unless we have engaged in a reverse stock split or share combination transaction such that in our reasonable best estimation, the conversion rate following the adjustment for such transaction will not be any closer to the conversion rate cap than it would have been in the absence of such transaction.

 

Upon conversion, unless a holder converts after a record date for an interest payment but prior to the corresponding interest payment date, the holder will receive a separate cash payment with respect to the Notes surrendered for

 

46



 

conversion representing accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the conversion date. Any such payment will be made on the settlement date applicable to the relevant conversion on the Senior Convertible Notes.

 

No holder of Senior Convertible Notes will be entitled to receive shares of our common stock upon conversion to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would cause such converting holder to become, directly or indirectly, a beneficial owner (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of more than 5.0% of the shares of our common stock outstanding at such time. The 5.0% limitation shall no longer apply following the effective date of any fundamental change. We will not issue any shares in connection with the conversion or redemption of the Notes which would equal or exceed 20% of the shares outstanding at the time of the transaction in accordance with NASDAQ rules.

 

Subject to certain exceptions, holders may require us to repurchase, for cash, all or part of their Notes upon a fundamental change at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, upon a fundamental change that constitutes a non-stock change of control we will also pay holders an amount in cash equal to the present value of all remaining interest payments (without duplication of the foregoing amounts) on such Senior Convertible Notes through and including the maturity date.

 

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Convertible Notes, we incurred $27,327 of fees which are being amortized over the terms of the notes in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, of which $22,753 remains to be amortized and is included within deferred financing costs on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2012.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $10,564 and $5,070 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Senior Convertible Notes as interest expense. During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $19,230 and $10,420 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Senior Convertible Notes as interest expense.

 

Note 6. Senior Unsecured Notes

 

On May 1, 2012, we issued $100,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.95% senior unsecured notes due 2022 for net proceeds net of offering expenses of $97,000 (the “2022 Notes”). Interest on the 2022 Notes is paid quarterly in arrears on August 15, November 15, February 15 and May 15, at a rate of 6.95% per year, commencing on August 15, 2012. The 2022 Notes mature on November 15, 2022. These notes will be our direct unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our unsecured senior indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

 

In connection with the issuance of the 2022 Notes, we incurred $3,337 of fees which are being amortized over the term of the notes in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, of which $3,172 remains to be amortized and is included within deferred financing costs on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Note 7. Prospect Capital InterNotes®

 

On February 16, 2012, we entered into a Selling Agent Agreement (the “Selling Agent Agreement”) with Incapital LLC, as purchasing agent for our issuance and sale from time to time of up to $500,000 of Prospect Capital InterNotes® (the “InterNotes® Offering”). Additional agents appointed by us from time to time in connection with the InterNotes Offering may become parties to the Selling Agent Agreement.

 

These notes are direct unsecured senior obligations and will rank equally with all of our unsecured senior indebtedness outstanding. Each series of notes will be issued by a separate trust. These notes bear interest at fixed interest rates and offer a variety of maturities no less than twelve months from the original date of issuance.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we issued $144,355 in aggregate principal amount of our Prospect Capital InterNotes® for net proceeds of approximately $140,901.

(1)  On June 1, 2012, we established a fifth at-the-market program through which we may sell, from time to time and at our sole discretion 9,500,000 shares of our common stock. Through this program we issued 5,199,764 shares of our common stock at an average price of $11.38 per share, raising $59,170 of gross proceeds, from June 12, 2012 through July 12, 2012.

(2)  On September 10, 2012, we established a sixth at-the-market program through which we may sell, from time to time and at our sole discretion 9,750,000 shares of our common stock. Through this program we issued 8,010,357 shares of our common stock at an average price of $11.81 per share, raising $94,610 of gross proceeds, from September 13, 2012 through October 9, 2012.

(3) On December 13, 2012, December 28, 2012 and December 31, 2012, we issued 467,928, 897,906 and 4,141,547 shares of our common stock, respectively, in conjunction with investments in controlled portfolio companies.

 

Our shareholders’ equity accounts at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 reflect cumulative shares issued as of those respective dates. Our common stock has been issued through public offerings, through a registered direct offering, through the exercise of over-allotment options on the part of the underwriters, as payment for investments, and through our dividend reinvestment plan. When our common stock is issued, the related offering expenses have been charged against paid-in capital in excess of par. All underwriting fees and offering expenses were borne by us.

 

On August 24, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan under which we may repurchase up to $100,000 of our common stock at prices below our net asset value. We have not made any purchases of our common stock during the period from August 24, 2011 to December 31, 2012 pursuant to this plan. Prior to any repurchase we are required to notify shareholders of our intention to purchase our common stock. This notice lasts for six months after notice is given. Our last notice was delivered with our annual proxy mailing on September 10, 2012.

 

On December 7, 2012, we announced the declaration of revised monthly dividends in the following amounts and with the following dates:

 

50



 

·                  $0.110000 per share for December 2012 (record date of December 31, 2012 and payment date of  January 23, 2013); and

 

·                  $0.110025 per share for January 2013 (record date of January 31, 2013 and payment date of  February 20, 2013).

 

These distributions replace the dividends for December 2012 and January 2013 that had been previously announced on November 7, 2012.

 

On October 29, 2012, our Registration Statement on Form N-2 was declared effective by the SEC. Under this Shelf Registration Statement, as of December 31, 2012 we can issue up to $2,546,746 of additional debt and equity securities in the public market.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we issued 624,527 and 584,361 shares, respectively, of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan.

 

At December 31, 2012, we have reserved 69,983,985 shares of our common stock for issuance upon conversion of the Senior Convertible Notes (See Note 5).

 

Note 10. Other Investment Income

 

Other investment income consists of structuring fees, overriding royalty interests, settlement of net profit interests, administrative agent fee, and other miscellaneous and sundry cash receipts.

Note 12. Related Party Agreements and Transactions

 

Investment Advisory Agreement

 

We have entered into an investment advisory and management agreement with Prospect Capital Management (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) under which the Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Investment Adviser: (i) determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes, (ii) identifies, evaluates and

 

51



 

negotiates the structure of the investments we make (including performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies); and (iii) closes and monitors investments we make.

 

Prospect Capital Management’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and Prospect Capital Management is free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its services to us are not impaired. For providing these services the Investment Adviser receives a fee from us, consisting of two components:  a base management fee and an incentive fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2.00% on our gross assets (including amounts borrowed). For services currently rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter.

 

The total base management fees incurred to the favor of the Investment Adviser for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $16,306, and $8,825, respectively. The fees incurred for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $29,534, and $17,036, respectively.

 

The incentive fee has two parts. The first part, the income incentive fee, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees and other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement described below, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment in kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized).

 

The net investment income used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the gross assets used to calculate the 2.00% base management fee. We pay the Investment Adviser an income incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

 

·                  no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate;

 

·                  100.00% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate); and

 

·                  20.00% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate).

 

These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.

 

The second part of the incentive fee, the capital gains incentive fee, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 20.00% of our realized capital gains for the calendar year, if any, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation at the end of such year. In determining the capital gains incentive fee payable to the Investment Adviser, we calculate the aggregate realized capital gains, aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate unrealized capital depreciation, as applicable, with respect to each investment that has been in its portfolio. For the purpose of this calculation, an “investment” is defined as the total of all rights and claims which maybe asserted against a portfolio company arising from our participation in the debt, equity, and other financial instruments issued by that company. Aggregate realized capital gains, if any, equal the sum of the differences between the aggregate net sales price of each investment and the aggregate cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate realized capital losses equal the sum of the amounts by which the aggregate net sales price of each investment is less than the aggregate cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate unrealized capital depreciation equals the sum of the differences, if negative, between the aggregate valuation of each investment and the aggregate cost

 

52



 

basis of such investment as of the applicable calendar year-end . At the end of the applicable calendar year, the amount of capital gains that serves as the basis for our calculation of the capital gains incentive fee involves netting aggregate realized capital gains against aggregate realized capital losses on a since-inception basis and then reducing this amount by the aggregate unrealized capital depreciation. If this number is positive, then the capital gains incentive fee payable is equal to 20.00% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains incentive fees paid since inception.

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, income incentive fees of $24,804 and $9,127, respectively, were incurred. For the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, income incentive fees of $43,311 and $16,096, respectively, were incurred. No capital gains incentive fees were incurred for the three or six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011

 

Administration Agreement

 

We have also entered into an Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration, LLC (“Prospect Administration”) under which Prospect Administration, among other things, provides (or arranges for the provision of) administrative services and facilities for us. For providing these services, we reimburse Prospect Administration for our allocable portion of overhead incurred by Prospect Administration in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the costs of our chief compliance officer and chief financial officer and his staff. For the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the reimbursement was approximately $2,139 and $1,117, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the reimbursement was approximately $4,323 and $2,233, respectively. Under this agreement, Prospect Administration furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Prospect Administration also performs, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, Prospect Administration assists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. Under the Administration Agreement, Prospect Administration also provides on our behalf legal and managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance, for which the fees collected are used to reduce the costs reimbursed by us. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. Prospect Administration is a wholly owned subsidiary of our Investment Adviser.

 

The Administration Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, Prospect Administration and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of Prospect Administration’s services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for us.

 

Managerial Assistance

 

As a business development company, we offer, and must provide upon request, managerial assistance to certain of our portfolio companies. This assistance could involve, among other things, monitoring the operations of our portfolio companies, participating in board and management meetings, consulting with and advising officers of portfolio companies and providing other organizational and financial guidance. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, $373 and $165 of managerial assistance fees remain on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as a payable to the Administrator.

 

Note 13. Litigation

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We are not aware of any such material litigation as of December 31, 2012.

·                  our future operating results;

·                  the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

 

·                  our expected financings and investments;

 

·                  the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; and

 

·                  the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies.

 

We generally use words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including the factors set forth in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report.

 

We have based the forward-looking statements included in this report on information available to us on the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including any annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.

 

Overview

 

We are a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company that has filed an election to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or the 1940 Act. We invest primarily in first and second lien senior loans and mezzanine debt, which in some cases includes an equity component. First and second lien senior loans generally are senior debt instruments that rank ahead of subordinated debt of a given portfolio company. These loans also have the benefit of security interests on the assets of the portfolio company, which may rank ahead of or be junior to other security interests. Mezzanine debt and our investments in collateralized loan obligation (‘‘CLOs’’) are subordinated to senior loans and are generally unsecured. We invest in debt and equity positions of CLOs which are a form of securitization in which the cash flows of a portfolio of loans are pooled and passed on to different classes of owners in various tranches. Our CLO investments are derived from portfolios of corporate debt securities which are generally risk rated from BB to B depending on the tranche.

 

58



 

We seek to be a long-term investor with our portfolio companies. The aggregate value of our portfolio investments was $3,038,808 and $2,094,221 as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, our net cost of investments increased by $1,017,744, or 48.5%, as a result of 38 new investments, twelve follow-on investments and two revolver advances of $1,491,741, accrued of payment-in-kind interest of $4,048, structuring fees of $24,273 and amortization of discounts and premiums of $11,422, while we received full repayment on sixteen investments, sold three investments, impaired one investment, and received several partial prepayments, amortization payments and a revolver repayment totaling $501,542.

 

Compared to the end of last fiscal year (ended June 30, 2012), net assets increased by $814,661or 53.9% during the six months ended December 31, 2012, from $1,511,974 to $2,326,635. This increase resulted from the issuance of new shares of our common stock (less offering costs) in the amount of $827,989, dividend reinvestments of $7,027, and $93,738 from operations. These increases, in turn, were offset by $114,093 in dividend distributions to our stockholders. The $93,738 increase in net assets resulting from operations is net of the following: net investment income of $173,243, net realized loss on investments of $6,348, and a decrease in net assets due to changes in net unrealized depreciation of investments of $73,157.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material.

On December 21, 2012, we issued $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior convertible notes due 2019 (the ‘‘2019 Notes’’) for net proceeds following underwriting and other expenses of approximately $193,600. Interest on the 2019 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15, at a rate of 5.875% per year, commencing July 15, 2013. The 2019 Notes mature on January 15, 2019 unless converted earlier. The 2019 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 79.7766 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.54 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion rate for the 2019 Notes will be increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.110025 per share.

 

Investment Holdings

 

As of December 31, 2012, we continue to pursue our diversified investment strategy. At December 31 2012, approximately $3,038,808 or 130.6% of our net assets are invested in 106 long-term portfolio investments and CLOs and 18.5% of our net assets are invested in money market funds.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we originated $1,531,484 of new investments. Our origination efforts are focused primarily on secured lending, to reduce the risk in the portfolio, investing primarily in first lien loans, and subordinated notes in CLOs, though we also continue to close selected junior debt and equity investments. In addition to

 

63



 

targeting investments senior in corporate capital structures with our new originations, we have also increased our origination business mix of third party private equity sponsor owned companies, which tend to have more third party equity capital supporting our debt investments than non-sponsor transactions. Our annualized current yield increased from 13.9% as of June 30, 2012 to 14.7% as of December 31, 2012 across all performing interest bearing investments. This increase is due to the acquisition of First Tower and increased investments in CLOs. Monetization of equity positions that we hold is not included in this yield calculation. In many of our portfolio companies we hold equity positions, ranging from minority interests to majority stakes, which we expect over time to contribute to our investment returns. Some of these equity positions include features such as contractual minimum internal rates of returns, preferred distributions, flip structures and other features expected to generate additional investment returns, as well as contractual protections and preferences over junior equity, in addition to the yield and security offered by our cash flow and collateral debt protections.

 

We classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person.

 

As of December 31, 2012, we own controlling interests in AIRMALL USA, Inc. (“AIRMALL”), Ajax, APH, AWCNC, LLC, Borga, Inc., CCPI, Credit Central, Energy Solutions Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc.) (“Energy Solutions”), First Tower Delaware, Manx Energy, Inc. (“Manx”), NMMB Holdings, Inc. (“NMMB”), R-V, The Healing Staff, Inc. (“THS”), Valley and Wolf Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Wolf”). We also own an affiliated interest in Biotronic, Boxercraft Incorporated and Smart, LLC.

In determining the fair value of our portfolio investments at December 31, 2012 the Audit Committee considered valuations from the independent valuation firms and from management having an aggregate range of $2,933,332 to $3,175,164, excluding money market investments.

 

In determining the range of value for debt instruments, management and the independent valuation firms generally shadow rated the investment and then based upon the range of ratings, determined appropriate yields to maturity for a loan rated as such. A discounted cash flow analysis was then prepared using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, yielding the ranges. For equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying EBITDA multiples for similar recent investment sales. For stressed equity investments, a liquidation analysis was prepared.

 

In determining the range of value for our investments in CLOs, management and the independent valuation firms used discounted cash flow models. The valuations were accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view. For each security, the most appropriate valuation approach was chosen from alternative approaches to ensure the most accurate valuation for each security. A discounted cash flow model is prepared, utilizing a waterfall engine to store the collateral data, generate collateral cash flows from the assets, and distributes the cash flow to the liability structure based on the payment priorities, and discount them back using proper discount rates that incorporate all the risk factors.

 

The Board of Directors looked at several factors in determining where within the range to value the asset including: recent operating and financial trends for the asset, independent ratings obtained from third parties, comparable multiples for recent sales of companies within the industry and discounted cash flow models for our investments in CLOs. The composite of all these analysis, applied to each investment, was a total valuation of $3,044,279, excluding money market investments.

 

Our portfolio companies are generally lower middle market companies, outside of the financial sector, with less than $150,000 of annual EBITDA. We believe our market has experienced less volatility than others because we believe there are more buy and hold investors who own these less liquid investments.

 

Control investments offer increased risk and reward over straight debt investments. Operating results and changes in market multiples can result in dramatic changes in values from quarter to quarter. Significant downturns in operations can further result in our looking to recoveries on sales of assets rather than the enterprise value of the investment. Several control investments in our portfolio are under enhanced scrutiny by our senior management and our Board of Directors and are discussed below.

 

AIRMALL USA, Inc.

 

AIRMALL is a leading developer and manager of airport retail operations. AIRMALL has developed and presently manages all or substantially all of the retail operations and food and beverage concessions at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI), Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE) and Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT). AIRMALL does so pursuant to long-term, infrastructure-like contracts with the respective municipal agencies that own and operate the airports.

 

On July 30, 2010, we invested $52,420 of combined debt and equity as follows: $30,000 senior term loan, $12,500 senior subordinated note and $9,920 preferred equity. We own 100% of AIRMALL’s equity securities. AIRMALL’s financial performance has been consistent since the acquisition and we continue to monitor the medium to long-term growth prospects for the company.

 

The Board of Directors increased the fair value of our investment in AIRMALL to $49,752 as of December 31, 2012, a discount of $1,718 from its amortized cost, compared to the $3,788 unrealized depreciation recorded at June 30, 2012.

 

Ajax Rolled Ring & Machine, Inc.

 

Ajax forges large seamless steel rings on two forging mills in the company’s York, South Carolina facility. The rings are used in a range of industrial applications, including in construction equipment and power turbines. Ajax also provides machining and other ancillary services.

 

We acquired a controlling equity interest in Ajax in a recapitalization of Ajax that was closed on April 4, 2008. We funded $22,000 of senior secured term debt, $11,500 of subordinated term debt and $6,300 of equity as of that

closing. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, we funded an additional $3,530 of secured subordinated debt to refinance a third-party revolver provider and provide working capital. Ajax repaid $3,461 of this secured subordinated debt during the quarter ended September 30, 2010. During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, we funded an additional $3,600 of unsecured debt to refinance first-lien debt held by Wells Fargo. As of December 31, 2012, we control 78.01% of the fully-diluted common and preferred equity. The principal balance of our senior debt to Ajax was $19,910 and our subordinated debt was $18,635 as of December 31, 2012.

 

The Board of Directors increased the fair value of our investment in Ajax to $43,416 as of December 31, 2012, a reduction of $1,186 from its amortized cost, compared to the $11,151 unrealized appreciation recorded at June 30, 2012.

 

Energy Solutions Holdings Inc. (f/k/a Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc.)

 

Energy Solutions owns interests in other companies operating in the energy sector. These include operating offshore supply vessels and ownerships of a non-operating biomass plant and several coal mines. Energy Solutions subsidiaries formerly owned interests in a gas gathering and processing system in east Texas.

 

In December 2011, we completed a reorganization of Gas Solutions Holdings, Inc. renaming the company Energy Solutions and transferring ownership of other operating companies owned by us and operating within the energy industry with the intent of strategically expanding Energy Solutions operations across energy sectors. As part of the reorganization, we transferred our equity interests in CCEHI, CCEI, Freedom Marine and Yatesville to Energy Solutions. On December 28, 2011, we made a follow-on investment of $4,750 to support the acquisition of a new vessel by Vessel Holdings LLC, a subsidiary of Freedom Marine.

 

On January 4, 2012, Energy Solutions sold its gas gathering and processing assets (“Gas Solutions”) for a sale price of $199,805, adjusted for the final working capital settlement, including a potential earnout of $28,000 that may be paid based on the future performance of Gas Solutions. [A portion of our loans to Energy Solutions remains outstanding and Energy Solutions will continue as a portfolio company of Prospect managing other energy-related subsidiaries.] During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, Energy Solutions repaid $20,000 of senior secured debt. We received a $14,144 make-whole fee for early repayment of the outstanding loan, which was recorded as interest income during the three months ended December 31, 2012. The cash balances of Energy Solutions continue to collateralize our remaining loan positions. As of December 31, 2012, these cash balances were $32,187, of which $5,007 is currently held in escrow.

 

In determining the value of Energy Solutions, we have utilized two valuation techniques to determine the value of the investment. Our Board of Directors has determined the value to be $39,900 for our debt and equity positions at December 31, 2012 based upon a combination of a current value method for the cash balances of Energy Solutions and a liquidation analysis for our interests in CCEHI, CCEI, Freedom Marine and Yatesville. At December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, Energy Solutions, including the underlying portfolio companies affected by the reorganization, was valued at $2,870 and $63,623 above its amortized cost, respectively. We received distributions of $20,570 and $53,820 from Energy Solutions that were recorded as dividend income during the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, respectively.

 

First Tower Holdings of Delaware LLC

 

First Tower is a multiline specialty finance company based in Flowood, Mississippi with over 150 branch offices.

 

On June 15, 2012, we acquired 80.1% of First Tower, LLC (“First Tower”) businesses for $110,200 in cash and 14,518,207 unregistered shares of our common stock. Based on our share price of $11.06 at the time of issuance, we acquired our 80.1% interest in First Tower for approximately $270,771. As consideration for our investment, First Tower Delaware, which is 100% owned by us, recorded a secured revolving credit facility to us of $244,760 and equity of $43,193. First Tower Delaware owns 80.1% of First Tower Holdings LLC, the holding company of First Tower. The assets of First Tower acquired include, among other things, the subsidiaries owned by First Tower, which hold finance receivables, leaseholds, and tangible property associated with First Tower’s businesses. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we received $8,075 in structuring fee income. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we funded an additional $20,000 of senior secured debt to support seasonally high demand during the holiday season. As of December 31, 2012, First Tower had total assets of approximately $482,396 including $435,038 of finance receivables net of unearned charges. As of December 31, 2012, First Tower’s total debt outstanding to parties senior to us was $257,096.

 

75



 

The Board of Directors increased the fair value of our investment in First Tower to $310,409 as of December 31, 2012, a premium of $2,456 to its amortized cost, compared to $287,953 as of June 30, 2012, equal to its amortized cost at that time.

 

The Healing Staff, Inc.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we determined that the impairment of Integrated Contract Services, Inc. (“ICS”) was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized loss of $12,198 for the amount that the amortized cost exceeded the fair market value. Our remaining investments are in THS and Vets Securing America (“VSA”), wholly owned subsidiaries of ICS with ongoing operations. THS provides outsourced medical staffing and security staffing services to governmental and commercial enterprises.  VSA provides out-sourced security guards staffed primarily using retired military and police department veterans.

 

During September and October 2007, we provided $1,170 to THS for working capital through our investment in ICS. In January 2009, we foreclosed on the real and personal property of ICS. Through this foreclosure process, we gained 100% ownership of THS. As part of its strategy to diversify its revenues THS started VSA as a new business in the latter part of 2009. During the year ended June 30, 2011 and the six months ended December 31, 2011, we made follow-on secured debt investments of $1,708 and $874, respectively, to support the ongoing operations of THS and VSA. In early May 2012, we made short-term secured debt investments of $118 and $42, respectively, to support the operations of THS and VSA, which short term debt was repaid in early June 2012. We made no additional fundings during the six months ended June 30, 2012. In May 2012, in connection with the implementation of accounts receivable based funding programs for THS and VSA with a third party provider we agreed to subordinate our first priority security interest in all of the accounts receivable and other assets of THS and VSA to the third party provider of that accounts receivable based funding.

 

Based upon an analysis of the liquidation value of assets, our Board of Directors determined the fair value of our investment in THS and VSA to be zero at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively, a reduction of $3,750 from its amortized cost.

 

Manx Energy, Inc.

 

Manx was formed for the purpose of rolling up the assets of two existing Prospect portfolio companies, Coalbed, LLC (“Coalbed”) and Appalachian Energy Holdings, LLC (“AEH”), bringing them under new management, restructuring the outstanding debt, and infusing additional capital to allow for future growth. Coalbed is the owner of 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Coalbed Pipelines, LLC and Coalbed Operator, LLC. Coalbed was formed in October 2009 to acquire our outstanding senior secured loan and assigned interests in Conquest Cherokee, LLC (“Conquest”). Conquest’s assets consisted primarily of coalbed methane reserves in the Cherokee Basin. AEH was formed in 2006 and is the owner of 100% of the outstanding equity interests of East Cumberland L.L.C., a provider of outsourced mine site development and construction services for coal production companies operating in Southern Appalachia, and C&S Oilfield and Pipeline Construction, a provider of support services to companies engaged in the exploration and production of oil and natural gas.

 

On January 19, 2010, we modified the terms of our senior secured debt in AEH and Coalbed in conjunction with the formation of Manx, a new entity consisting of the assets of AEH, Coalbed and Kinley Exploration LLC. The assets of the three companies were combined under new common management. We funded $2,800 at closing to Manx to provide for working capital. A portion of our loans to AEH and Coalbed was exchanged for Manx preferred equity, while our AEH equity interest was converted into Manx common stock. There was no change to fair value at the time of restructuring, and we continue to fully reserve any income accrued for Manx. During the year ended June 30, 2011, we made a follow-on secured debt investments of $750 in Manx to support ongoing operations. On June 30, 2012, Manx assigned the membership interests of Coalbed and AEH to Wolf Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Wolf”), a newly-formed company owned by us.

 

The Board of Directors decreased the fair value of our investment in Manx to zero as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively, a reduction of $11,027 from its amortized cost.

 

Wolf Energy Holdings, Inc.

 

Wolf is a holding company formed to hold 100% of the outstanding membership interests of each of Coalbed and AEH. The membership interests of Coalbed and AEH, which were previously owned by Manx, were assigned to Wolf effective June 30, 2012. The purpose of assignment was to remove those activities from Manx deemed non-core

 

76



 

by the Manx convertible debt investors who were not interested in funding those operations. In addition, effective June 29, 2012 C&J Cladding Holding Company, Inc. (“C&J”) merged with and into Wolf, with Wolf as the surviving entity. At the time of the merger, C&J held the remaining undistributed proceeds from the sale of its membership interests in C&J Cladding, LLC. The merger was effectuated in connection with the broader simplification of our energy investment holdings.

 

The Board of Directors increased the fair value of our investment in Wolf to $939 as of December 31, 2012, a reduction of $7,052 from its amortized cost, compared to the $7,991 unrealized depreciation recorded at June 30, 2012.

 

Equity positions in the portfolio are susceptible to potentially significant changes in value, both increases as well as decreases, due to changes in operating results. One of our portfolio companies, Ajax, experienced such volatility and experienced meaningful fluctuations in valuation during the six months ended December 31, 2012. The valuation of Ajax decreased due to declining operating results. The value of our equity position in Ajax decreased to $4,871 as of December 31, 2012, a discount of $1,186 to its cost, compared to the $11,151 unrealized gain recorded at June 30, 2012. Seven of the other controlled investments have been valued at discounts to the original investment. Six of the control investments are valued at the original investment amounts or higher. Overall, at December 31, 2012, the control investments are valued at $16,980 below their amortized cost.

 

We hold three affiliate investments at December 31, 2012. The affiliate investments reported strong operating results with valuations remaining relatively consistent from June 30, 2012. Overall, at December 31, 2012, affiliate investments are valued at $393 above their amortized cost.

 

With the Non-control/Non-affiliate investments, generally, there is less volatility related to our total investments because our equity positions tend to be smaller than with our control/affiliate investments, and debt investments are generally not as susceptible to large swings in value as equity investments. For debt investments, the fair value is limited on the high side to each loan’s par value, plus any prepayment premia that could be imposed. Many of the debt investments in this category have not experienced a significant change in value, as they were previously valued at or near par value. Non-control/Non-affiliate investments did not experience significant changes in valuation and are generally performing as expected or better than expected. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, three of our Non-control/Non-affiliate investments, H&M Oil & Gas, LLC (“H&M”), Stryker Energy, LLC (“Stryker”) and Wind River Resources Corp. and Wind River II Corp. (“Wind River”), are valued at a significant discount to amortized cost, due to significant decreases in the operating results of the operating companies. Overall, at December 31, 2012, other Non-control/Non-affiliate investments are valued at $17,784 above their amortized cost, excluding our investments in H&M, Stryker and Wind River, as the remaining companies are generally performing as or better than expected.

 

Capitalization

 

Our investment activities are capital intensive and the availability and cost of capital is a critical component of our business. We capitalize our business with a combination of debt and equity. Our debt currently consists of a revolving credit facility availing us of the ability to borrow debt subject to borrowing base determinations and Senior Convertible Notes which we issued in December 2010, February 2011, April 2012, August 2012 and December 2012, Senior Unsecured Notes, and Prospect Capital InterNotes®, which we may issue from time to time, and our equity capital, which is comprised entirely of common equity. The following table shows the Revolving Credit Facility, Senior Convertible Notes, Senior Unsecured Notes and InterNotes® amounts and outstanding borrowings at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012:

We have and expect to continue to fund a portion of our cash needs through borrowings from banks, issuances of senior securities, including secured, unsecured and convertible debt securities, or issuances of common equity. For flexibility, we maintain a universal shelf registration statement that allows for the public offering and sale of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock and warrants to purchase such securities in an amount up to $3,000,000 less issuances to date. As of December 31, 2012 we can issue up to $2,546,746 of additional debt and equity securities in the public market under this shelf registration. We may from time to time issue securities pursuant to the shelf registration statement or otherwise pursuant to private offerings. The issuance of debt or equity securities will depend on future market conditions, funding needs and other factors and there can be no assurance that any such issuance will occur or be successful.

 

Revolving Credit Facility

 

On June 11, 2010, we closed an extension and expansion of our existing credit facility with a syndicate of lenders through PCF (the “2010 Facility”). The 2010 Facility, which had $325,000 total commitments as of June 30, 2011, included an accordion feature which allowed the Syndicated Facility to accept up to an aggregate total of $400,000 of commitments, a limit which was met on September 1, 2011. Interest on borrowings under the 2010 Facility was one-month Libor plus 325 basis points, subject to a minimum Libor floor of 100 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charged a fee on the unused portion of the 2010 Facility equal to either 75 basis points if at least half of the credit facility is used or 100 basis points otherwise.

 

On March 27, 2012, we renegotiated the Syndicated Facility and closed on an expanded five-year $650,000 revolving credit facility (the “2012 Facility”). The lenders have extended commitments of $552,500 under the 2012 Facility as of December 31, 2012. The 2012 Facility includes an accordion feature which allows commitments to be increased up to $650,000 in the aggregate. The revolving period of the 2012 Facility extends through March 2015, with an additional two year amortization period (with distributions allowed) after the completion of the revolving period. During such two year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the two year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders.

 

The 2012 Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements. The 2012 Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the 2012 Facility. The 2012 Facility also requires the maintenance of a minimum liquidity requirement. At December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants.

 

Interest on borrowings under the 2012 Facility is one-month Libor plus 275 basis points with no minimum Libor floor. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the 2012 Facility equal to either 50 basis points if at least half of the credit facility is drawn or 100 basis points otherwise. The 2012 Facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, we had $277,127 and $451,252, respectively, available to us for borrowing under our 2012 Facility, of which the amount outstanding was zero and $96,000, respectively. As additional investments that are eligible are transferred to PCF and pledged under the 2012 Facility, PCF will generate additional availability up to the commitment amount of $552,500. At December 31, 2012, the investments used as collateral for the 2012 Facility had an aggregate market value of $642,128, which represents 27.6% of our net assets. These assets have been transferred to PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which owns these investments and as such, these investments are not available to our general creditors. PCF, a bankruptcy remote

 

78



 

special purpose entity and our wholly-owned subsidiary, holds all of these investments at market value as of December 31, 2012. The release of any assets from PCF requires the approval of the facility agent.

 

In connection with the origination and amendments of the 2012 Facility, we incurred $11,126 of fees, including $1,319 of fees carried over from the previous facility, which are being amortized over the term of the facility in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, of which $8,646 remains to be amortized.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $2,227 and $4,689 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Syndicated Facility as interest expense, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $4,395 and $8,299 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Syndicated Facility as interest expense, respectively.

 

Senior Convertible Notes

 

On December 21, 2010, we issued $150,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 6.25% senior convertible notes due 2015 (“2015 Notes”) for net proceeds following underwriting expenses of approximately $145,200. Interest on the 2015 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15, at a rate of 6.25% per year, commencing June 15, 2011. The 2015 Notes mature on December 15, 2015 unless converted earlier. The 2015 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 88.0902 and 88.1429 shares of common stock, respectively, per $1 principal amount of 2015 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $11.35 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price in effect at December 31, 2012 was last calculated on the anniversary of the issuance (December 21, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the next anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary.  The conversion rate for the 2015 Notes is increased if monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the rate of $0.101125 cents per share, subject to adjustment.

 

On February 18, 2011, we issued $172,500 in aggregate principal amount of our 5.50% senior convertible notes due 2016 (“2016 Notes”) for net proceeds following underwriting expenses of approximately $167,325. Between January 30, 2012 and February 2, 2012, we repurchased $5,000 of our 2016 Notes at a price of 97.5, including commissions. The transactions resulted in our recognizing $10 of loss in the year ended June 30, 2012. Interest on the remaining $167,500 of 2016 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15, at a rate of 5.50% per year, commencing August 15, 2011. The 2016 Notes mature on August 15, 2016 unless converted earlier. The 2016 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 78.3699 and 78.3835 shares, respectively, of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2016 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.76 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price in effect at December 31, 2012 was last calculated on the anniversary of the issuance (February 14, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the next anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2016 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.101150 per share.

The 2017 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 85.8442 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2017 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $11.65 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price has not been adjusted since the issuance (April 16, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the first anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2017 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.101500 per share.

 

On August 14, 2012, we issued $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of our 5.75% senior convertible notes due 2018 (“2018 Notes”) for net proceeds following underwriting expenses of approximately $193,600. Interest on the 2018 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, at a rate of 5.75% per year, commencing March 15, 2013. The 2018 Notes mature on March 15, 2018 unless converted earlier.

The conversion price has not been adjusted since

 

79



 

the issuance (August 14, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the first anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2018 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.101600 per share.

 

On December 21, 2012, we issued $200,000 in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior convertible notes due 2019 (the ‘‘2019 Notes’’) for net proceeds following underwriting and other expenses of approximately $193,600. Interest on the 2019 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15, at a rate of 5.875% per year, commencing July 15, 2013. The 2019 Notes mature on January 15, 2019 unless converted earlier. The 2019 Notes are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial conversion rate and conversion rate at December 31, 2012 of 79.7766 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of 2019 Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $12.54 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The conversion price has not been adjusted since the issuance (December 21, 2012) and will next be adjusted on the first anniversary, unless the exercise price shall have changed by more than 1% before the anniversary. The conversion rate for the 2019 Notes is increased when monthly cash dividends paid to common shares exceed the monthly dividend rate of $0.110025 per share.

 

In no event will the total number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion exceed 96.8992 per $1 principal amount of the 2015 Notes (the “conversion rate cap”), except that, to the extent we receive written guidance or a no-action letter from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Guidance”) permitting us to adjust the conversion rate in certain instances without regard to the conversion rate cap and to make the 2015 Notes convertible into certain reference property in accordance with certain reclassifications, business combinations, asset sales and corporate events by us without regard to the conversion rate cap, we will make such adjustments without regard to the conversion rate cap and will also, to the extent that we make any such adjustment without regard to the conversion rate cap pursuant to the Guidance, adjust the conversion rate cap accordingly. We will use our commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Guidance as promptly as practicable.

 

Prior to obtaining the Guidance, we will not engage in certain transactions that would result in an adjustment to the conversion rate increasing the conversion rate beyond what it would have been in the absence of such transaction unless we have engaged in a reverse stock split or share combination transaction such that in our reasonable best estimation, the conversion rate following the adjustment for such transaction will not be any closer to the conversion rate cap than it would have been in the absence of such transaction.

 

Upon conversion, unless a holder converts after a record date for an interest payment but prior to the corresponding interest payment date, the holder will receive a separate cash payment with respect to the Notes surrendered for conversion representing accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the conversion date. Any such payment will be made on the settlement date applicable to the relevant conversion on the 2015 Notes and 2016 Notes (collectively, “Senior Convertible Notes”).

 

No holder of Senior Convertible Notes will be entitled to receive shares of our common stock upon conversion to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would cause such converting holder to become, directly or indirectly, a beneficial owner (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of more than 5.0% of the shares of our common stock outstanding at such time. The 5.0% limitation shall no longer apply following the effective date of any fundamental change. We will not issue any shares in connection with the conversion or redemption of the Notes which would equal or exceed 20% of the shares outstanding at the time of the transaction in accordance with NASDAQ rules.

 

Subject to certain exceptions, holders may require us to repurchase, for cash, all or part of their Notes upon a fundamental change at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, upon a fundamental change that constitutes a non-stock change of control we will also pay holders an amount in cash equal to the present value of all remaining interest payments (without duplication of the foregoing amounts) on such Senior Convertible Notes through and including the maturity date.

 

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Convertible Notes, we incurred $27,327 of fees which are being amortized over the term of the notes in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, of which $22,753 remains to be amortized and is included within deferred financing costs on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we recorded $10,564 and $5,070 of interest costs and amortization of financing costs on the Senior Convertible Notes as interest expense. During the six months

Interest on the 2022 Notes is paid quarterly in arrears on August 15, November 15, February 15 and May 15, at a rate of 6.95% per year, commencing on August 15, 2012. The 2022 Notes mature on November 15, 2022. These notes will be our direct unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our unsecured senior indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

 

In connection with the issuance of the 2022 Notes, we incurred $3,337 of fees which are being amortized over the term of the notes in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, of which $3,172 remains to be amortized and is included within deferred financing costs on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Results of Operations

 

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $46,489 and $64,492, respectively, representing $0.24 and $0.59 per weighted average share, respectively. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we experienced net unrealized and realized losses of $52,727 or approximately $0.27 per weighted average share primarily from reductions in the fair value of our investments in Ajax, Energy Solutions, H&M and R-V. Net investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $99,216 and $36,508, respectively, representing $0.51 and $0.33 per weighted average share, respectively. This increase is primarily due to an increase in dividend income received from Energy Solutions and R-V. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, we experienced net unrealized and realized gains of $27,984 or approximately $0.26 per weighted average share primarily from significant write-ups of our investments in Energy Solutions and NRG Manufacturing, Inc. (“NRG”), and our sale of NRG common stock for which we realized a gain of $12,131. These instances of appreciation were partially offset by unrealized depreciation in Babson CLO Ltd 2011-I (“Babson 2011”), Biotronic, NMMB and Stryker.

 

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $93,738 and $104,392, respectively, representing $0.52 and $0.96 per weighted average share, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we experienced net unrealized and realized losses of $79,505 or approximately $0.44 per weighted average share primarily from reductions in the fair value of our investments in Ajax, Energy Solutions, H&M and R-V. Net investment income for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $173,243 and $64,385, respectively, representing $0.97 and $0.59 per weighted average share, respectively. This increase is primarily due to an increase in dividend income received from Energy Solutions and R-V. During the six months ended December 31, 2011, we experienced net unrealized and realized gains of $40,007 or approximately $0.37 per weighted average share primarily from significant write-ups of our investments in Ajax, Energy Solutions, NRG and R-V, and our sale of NRG common stock for which we realized a gain of $12,131. These instances of unrealized appreciation were partially offset by unrealized depreciation in Biotronic and Stryker, and the impairment of Deb Shops, Inc. (“Deb Shops”) due to bankruptcy for which we recorded a realized loss for the full amount of the amortized cost.

 

While we seek to maximize gains and minimize losses, our investments in portfolio companies can expose our capital to risks greater than those we may anticipate. These companies are typically not issuing securities rated investment grade, have limited resources, have limited operating history, have concentrated product lines or customers, are generally private companies with limited operating information available and are likely to depend on a small core of management talents. Changes in any of these factors can have a significant impact on the value of the portfolio company.

 

Investment Income

 

We generate revenue in the form of interest income on the debt securities that we own, dividend income on any common or preferred stock that we own, and fees generated from the structuring of new deals. Our investments, if in the form of debt securities, will typically have a term of one to ten years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. To the extent achievable, we will seek to collateralize our investments by obtaining security interests in our portfolio companies’ assets. We also may acquire minority or majority equity interests in our portfolio companies, which may pay cash or in-kind dividends on a recurring or otherwise negotiated basis. In addition, we may generate revenue in other forms including prepayment penalties and possibly consulting fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments are recognized as earned.

 

Investment income, which consists of interest income, including accretion of loan origination fees and prepayment penalty fees, dividend income and other income, including settlement of net profits interests, overriding royalty interests and structuring fees, was $166,035 and $67,263 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Investment income was $289,671 and $122,605 for the six months ended, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, the increase in investment income is primarily the result of a larger income producing portfolio and the deployment of additional capital in revenue-producing assets through increased origination and increased dividends received from Energy Solutions and R-V.

Average interest income producing assets have increased from $1,441,590 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 to $2,536,141 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The average yield on interest bearing assets increased from 12.52% for the three months ended December 31, 2011 to 18.03% for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The increase in annual returns is primarily due to the acquisition of First Tower, an increase in our investment in CLOs and the $14,144 make-whole fee we received from Energy Solutions. Excluding these adjustments, our annual return would have been 13.47% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.

 

Average interest income producing assets have increased from $1,393,343 for the six months ended December 31, 2011 to $2,341,813 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. The average yield on interest bearing assets increased from 12.43% for the six months ended December 31, 2011 to 16.31% for the six months ended December 31, 2012. The increase in annual returns is primarily due to the acquisition of First Tower, an increase in our investment in CLOs and the $14,144 make-whole fee we received from Energy Solutions. Excluding these adjustments, our annual return would have been 13.05% for the six months ended December 31, 2012.

 

Investment income is also generated from dividends and other income. Dividend income increased from $19,029 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 to $31,955 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Dividend income increased from $26,079 for the six months ended December 31, 2011 to $68,163 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. The increase in dividend income is primarily attributed to an increase in the level of dividends received during the respective three and six month periods from our investments in Energy Solutions and R-V. We received dividends from Energy Solutions of $20,570 and $10,800 during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We received dividends from Energy Solutions of $53,820 and $14,300 during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The sale of Gas Solutions by Energy Solutions has resulted in significant earnings and profits, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, at Energy Solutions for calendar year 2012. As a result, distributions from Energy Solutions to us will be required to be recognized as dividend income, in accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, as cash distributions are received from Energy Solutions to the extent there are current year earnings and profits sufficient to support such recognition. We received dividends from R-V of $11,147 and $134 during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The $11,147 of dividends received from R-V during the three months ended December 31, 2012 include a $11,073 distribution as part of R-V’s recapitalization in November 2012 for which we provided an additional $9,500 of senior secured financing. There were no dividends received from R-V during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The increases in dividend income from our investments in ESHI and R-V were offset by a reduction in dividends received from NRG. We received dividends from NRG of $6,711 and $9,911 during the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, respectively. There were no dividends from NRG received during the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, respectively, as this asset has been sold.

 

Other income has come primarily from structuring fees, overriding royalty interests, and settlement of net profits interests. Comparing the three months ended December 31, 2011 to the three months ended December 31, 2012, income from other sources increased from $2,098 to $17,214. This $15,116 increase is primarily due to $15,314 of structuring fees recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2012 primarily from the Credit Central, Ryan and USC originations, in comparison to $1,837 of structuring fees recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Comparing the six months ended December 31, 2011 to the six months ended December 31, 2012, income from other sources increased from $8,003 to $26,332. This $18,329 increase is primarily due to $24,273 of structuring fees recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2012 primarily from the Arctic, InterDent, New Century,

Progrexion, Ryan and USC originations, in comparison to $7,356 of structuring fees recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2011 primarily related to the Capstone and Totes Isotoner Corporation originations.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our primary operating expenses consist of investment advisory fees (base management and income incentive fees), borrowing costs, legal and professional fees and other operating and overhead-related expenses. These expenses include our allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration under which Prospect Administration provides administrative services and facilities for us. Our investment advisory fees compensate our Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions in accordance with our Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration. Operating expenses were $66,819 and $30,755 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Operating expenses were $116,428 and $58,220 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

 

The base investment advisory expenses were $16,306 and $8,825 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The base investment advisory expenses were $29,534 and $17,036 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. This increase is directly related to our growth in total assets. For the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we incurred $24,804 and $9,127, respectively, of income incentive fees. For the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we incurred $43,311 and $16,096, respectively, of income incentive fees. The $15,677 and $27,215 increase in the income incentive fee for the respective three-month and six-month periods are driven by an increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income of $78,385 and $136,073 for the respective three-month and six-month periods primarily due to an increase in interest income from a larger asset base and dividend income from Energy Solutions. No capital gains incentive fee has yet been incurred pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement.

 

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, we incurred $16,414 and $29,925, respectively, of expenses related to our Syndicated Facility, InterNotes®, Senior Unsecured Notes and Senior Convertible Notes. This compares with expenses of $9,759 and $18,719 incurred during the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, respectively. These expenses are related directly to the leveraging capacity put into place for each of those periods and the levels of indebtedness actually undertaken during those quarters. The table below describes the various expenses of our Syndicated Facility and Senior Convertible Notes and the related indicators of leveraging capacity and indebtedness during these periods.

The increase in interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 is primarily due to the issuance of the 2022 notes and the Senior Convertible Notes on April 16, 2012, August 14, 2012 and December 21, 2012, for which we incurred $6,730 and $11,652 of collective interest expense, respectively.

 

As our asset base has grown and we have added complexity to our capital raising activities, we have commensurately increased the size of our administrative and financial staff, accounting for a significant increase in the overhead allocation from Prospect Administration. Over the last two years, Prospect Administration has increased staffing levels along with costs passed through. The allocation of overhead expense from Prospect Administration was $2,139 and $1,117 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The allocation of overhead

 

85



 

expense from Prospect Administration was $4,323 and $2,233 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. As our portfolio continues to grow, we expect to continue to increase the size of our administrative and financial staff. Other allocated expenses from Prospect Administration will continue to increase along with the increase in staffing and asset base.

 

Total operating expenses, net of management fees, interest costs, excise tax and allocation of overhead from Prospect Administration (“Other Operating Expenses”), were $2,656 and $1,927 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Other Operating Expenses were $4,835 and $4,136 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Net Investment Income

 

Net investment income represents the difference between investment income and operating expenses. Our net investment income (“NII”) was $99,216 and $36,508 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, or $0.51 per share and $0.33 per share, respectively. The $62,708 increase for the three months ended December 31, 2012 is due to increases of $70,730, $12,926 and $15,116 in interest, dividend and other income, respectively, due to the increased size of our portfolio for which we have recognized additional interest income, structuring fees from new originations and an increased level of dividends received from our investments in Energy Solutions and R-V. The $62,708 increase in investment income is offset by an increase in operating expenses of $36,064, primarily due to a $23,158 increase in advisory fees due to the growing size of our portfolio and related income, and $6,655 of additional interest and credit facility expenses. At December 31, 2012, we have elected to retain a portion of our annual taxable income and have accrued $4,500 for the excise tax that will be paid with the filing of the return. The per share increase for the three months ended December 31, 2012 is primarily due to an increase in the level of dividends received from our investment in Energy Solutions and R-V of $9,770 and $11,013, respectively.

 

Our NII was $173,243 and $64,385 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, or $0.97 per share and $0.59 per share, respectively. The $108,858 increase for the six months ended December 31, 2012 is primarily due to increases of $106,653, $42,084 and $18,329 in interest, dividend and other income, respectively, due to the increased size of our portfolio for which we have recognized additional interest income and an increased level of dividends received primarily from our investments in Energy Solutions and R-V. The $167,066 increase in investment income is offset by an increase in operating expenses of $58,208, primarily due to a $39,713 increase in advisory fees due to the growing size of our portfolio and related income, and $11,206 of additional interest and credit facility expenses. The per share increase for the six months ended December 31, 2012 is primarily due to a $39,520 increase in the level of dividends received from our investment in Energy Solutions.

 

Net Realized (Loss) Gain, Increase in Net Assets from Net Changes in Unrealized Appreciation

 

Net realized (loss) gain was ($8,123) and $13,498 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Net realized loss was $6,348 and $1,109 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The net realized loss for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was due primarily to the impairment of ICS. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we determined that the impairment of ICS was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized loss of $12,198 for the amount that the amortized cost exceeded the fair market value. This loss was offset primarily by the sale of Northwestern common stock for which we realized a gain of $1,862 and sale of Shearer’s membership units for which we realized a gain of $2,027. The net realized loss for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was primarily due to the impairment of ICS, sale of our equity investments in Northwestern and Shearer’s and sale of our common stock in Iron Horse for which we realized a gain of $1,772.

 

The net realized gain for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was due primarily to the sale of NRG common stock for which we realized a gain of $12,131. For the six months ended December 31, 2011 this gain was offset by our impairment of Deb Shops. During the six months ended December 31, 2011, Deb Shops filed for bankruptcy and a plan for reorganization was proposed. The plan, which is expected to be approved by the bankruptcy court, will eliminate our debt position with no payment to us. As a result, we determined that the impairment of Deb Shops was other-than-temporary and recorded a realized loss of $14,607 for the full amount of the amortized cost.

 

Net increase in net assets from changes in unrealized (depreciation) appreciation was ($44,604) and $14,486 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2012, the $44,604 decrease in net assets from the net change in unrealized depreciation was driven by

 

86



 

reduction in the fair value of our investments in Ajax and R-V because operating results were down from those of the prior quarter and Energy Solutions for which we received a $14,144 make-whole fee for early repayment of the outstanding loan and distributions of $20,570 during the quarter, which were recorded as interest and dividend income, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the $14,486 increase in net assets from the net change in unrealized appreciation was driven by an increase in the fair values of our investments in Energy Solutions and NRG because operating results were up from those of prior quarter. These instances of appreciation were partially offset by unrealized depreciation in Babson 2011, Biotronic, NMMB, and Stryker, due to declining operating results and a reduction in current natural gas prices.

 

Net increase in net assets from changes in unrealized (depreciation) appreciation was ($73,157) and $41,116 for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2012, the $73,157 decrease in net assets from the net change in unrealized depreciation was driven by reductions in the fair value of our investments in Ajax and R-V because operating results were down during the six-month period and Energy Solutions for which received a $14,144 make-whole fee for early repayment of the outstanding loan and distributions of $53,820 during the six-month period, which were recorded as interest and dividend income, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2011, the $41,116 increase in net assets from the net change in unrealized appreciation was driven by increases in the fair value of our investments in Ajax, Energy Solutions, NRG and R-V, because operating results were up from those of prior quarter. These instances of unrealized appreciation were partially offset by unrealized depreciation in Biotronic and Stryker. Our equity investment in Biotronic experienced a meaningful decrease in valuation as prior to June 30, 2011 we anticipated that the company would be sold at a substantial premium to our cost basis. This sales process was discontinued during the six months ended December 31, 2011 as the buyer and Biotronic could not agree to terms acceptable to each party. The value of our investment in Stryker decreased due primarily to a reduction in natural gas prices.

 

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

For the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our operating activities used $1,102,242 and $119,765 of cash, respectively. There were no investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Financing activities provided $1,101,636 and $120,134 of cash during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which included the payments of dividends of $97,577 and $60,932, during the six months ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

 

Our primary uses of funds have been to continue to invest in portfolio companies, through both debt and equity investments, repay outstanding borrowings and to make cash distributions to holders of our common stock.

 

Our primary sources of funds have been issuances of debt and equity. We have and may continue to fund a portion of our cash needs through borrowings from banks, issuances of senior securities or secondary offerings. We may also securitize a portion of our investments in mezzanine or senior secured loans or other assets. Our objective is to put in place such borrowings in order to enable us to expand our portfolio. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we borrowed $99,000 and made repayments totaling $195,000 under our revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2012, we had no outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility, $847,500 outstanding on our Senior Convertible Notes, $100,000 outstanding on our Senior Unsecured Notes and $164,993 outstanding on InterNotes®. (See Capitalization.)

 

Undrawn committed revolvers incur commitment fees ranging from 0.50% to 2.00%. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, we have $188,367 and $180,646 of undrawn revolver commitments to our portfolio companies, respectively.

 

Our Board of Directors, pursuant to the Maryland General Corporation Law, executed Articles of Amendment to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance from 200,000,000 to 500,000,000 in the aggregate. The amendment became effective July 30, 2012.

 

On October 29, 2012, our Registration Statement on Form N-2 was declared effective by the SEC. Under this Shelf Registration Statement, we can issue up to $2,546,746 of additional debt and equity securities in the public market.

 

We also continue to generate liquidity through public and private stock offerings. (See Recent Developments.)

Net proceeds were $25,779 after 1% commission to KeyBanc on shares sold. (See Recent Developments.)

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

At December 31, 2012, we did not have any off-balance sheet liabilities or other contractual obligations that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, other than those which originate from 1) the investment advisory and management agreement and the administration agreement and 2) the portfolio companies.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes to the financial statements.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

Under the 1940 Act rules, the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X, and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us. Our December 31, 2012 financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of Prospect Capital Funding, LLC, our only wholly-owned, closely-managed subsidiary that is also an investment company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Investment Classification

 

We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. We classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person.

 

Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments in other, non-security financial instruments are recorded on the basis of subscription date or redemption date, as applicable. Amounts for investments recognized or derecognized but not yet settled are reported as Receivables for investments sold and Payables for investments purchased, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

 

Investment Valuation

 

Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below.

 

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations.

For most of our investments, market quotations are not available. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

 

1)

 

Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with the independent valuation firms engaged by our Board of Directors;

 

 

 

2)

 

the independent valuation firms conduct independent appraisals and make their own independent assessment;

 

 

 

3)

 

the audit committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses the preliminary valuation with Prospect Capital Management (the “Investment Adviser”) proposing values within the valuation range presented by the independent valuation firms; and

 

 

 

4)

 

the Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms and the audit committee.

 

Investments are valued utilizing a shadow bond approach, a market approach, an income approach, a liquidation approach, or a combination of approaches, as appropriate. The shadow bond and market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted) calculated based on an appropriate discount rate. The measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, the principal market and enterprise values, among other factors.

 

Our investments in collateralized loan obligation funds (“CLOs”) are classified as ASC 820 level 3 securities, and are valued using discounted cash flow model. The valuations have been accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view. For each security, the most appropriate valuation approach has been chosen from alternative approaches to ensure the most accurate valuation for each security.  To value a CLO, both the assets and liabilities of the CLO capital structure have been modeled. Our valuation agent uses a waterfall engine to store the collateral data, including the collateral cash flows from the assets, and distributions of the cash flow to the liability structure based on the payment priorities, and discounts them back using proper discount rates that incorporate all the risk factors. The main risk factors are: default risk, interest rate risk, downgrade risk, and credit spread risk.

 

ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.

 

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The changes to GAAP from the application of ASC 820 relate to the definition of fair value, the framework for measuring fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by other standards. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted.

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820-10-65, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“ASC 820-10-65”). This update provides further clarification for ASC 820 in markets that are not active and provides additional

 

90



 

guidance for determining when the volume of trading level of activity for an asset or liability has significantly decreased and for identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. ASC 820-10-65 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 820-10-65 did not have any effect on our net asset value, financial position or results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, as there was no change to the fair value measurement principles set forth in ASC 820.

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 2010-06”). ASC 2010-06 amends ASC 820-10 and clarifies and provides additional disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements and employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASC 2010-06 is effective December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure about purchase, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 2010-06 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, did not have any effect on our financial statements.

 

Federal and State Income Taxes

 

We have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gain to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.

 

If we do not distribute at least 98% of our annual income and 98.2% of our capital gains in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains exceeds the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income. At December 31, 2012, we have elected to retain a portion of our annual taxable income and have accrued $4,500 for the excise tax that will be paid with the filing of the return in March 2013.

 

If we fail to satisfy the Annual Distribution Requirement or otherwise fail to qualify as a RIC in any taxable year, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would we be required to make distributions. Distributions would generally be taxable to our individual and other non-corporate taxable stockholders as ordinary dividend income eligible for the reduced maximum rate for taxable years beginning before 2013 (but not for taxable years beginning thereafter, unless the relevant provisions are extended by legislation) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, provided certain holding period and other requirements are met. Subject to certain limitations under the Code, corporate distributions would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. To qualify again to be taxed as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our shareholders our accumulated earnings and profits attributable to non-RIC years reduced by an interest charge of 50% of such earnings and profits payable by us as an additional tax. In addition, if we failed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of ten years.

 

We adopted FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are ‘‘more-likely-than-not’’ of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. As of December 31, 2012 and for the quarter then ended, we did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax expense. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

 

ASC Subtopic 820-10-05-1, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASC 820-10-05-1”) permits an entity to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many of assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. We have elected not to value other assets and liabilities at fair value as would be permitted by ASC 820-10-05-1.

 

Senior Convertible Notes

 

We have recorded the Senior Convertible Notes (See Note 5) at their contractual amounts. The Senior Convertible Notes were analyzed for any features that would require its accounting to be bifurcated and they were determined to be immaterial.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.

 

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, closing and/or commitment fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Accretion of such purchase discounts or premiums is calculated by the effective interest method as of the purchase date and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties and unamortized loan origination, closing and commitment fees are recorded as interest income. The purchase discount for portfolio investments acquired from Patriot Capital Funding, Inc. (“Patriot”) was determined based on the difference between par value and fair market value as of December 2, 2009, and will continue to accrete until maturity or repayment of the respective loans.

 

Interest income from investments in the “equity” class of security of CLO Funds (typically income notes or subordinated notes) is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing assumed cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40-35, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. Adjustments resulting from recording the interest income based on the effective yield are recorded to the cost basis of the investment. We monitor the expected cash inflows from our CLO equity investments, including the expected residual payments and the effective yield is determined and updated periodically.

 

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

 

Structuring fees and similar fees are recognized as income as earned, usually when paid. Structuring fees, excess deal deposits, net profits interests and overriding royalty interests are included in other income.

 

Loans are placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will not be collected in accordance with the terms of the investment. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current.

 

Dividends and Distributions

 

Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount, if any, to be paid as a dividend or distribution is approved by our Board of Directors each quarter and is generally based upon our management’s estimate of our earnings for the quarter. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.

 

Financing Costs

 

We record origination expenses related to our credit facility and the Senior Convertible Notes as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method for our revolving credit facility and the effective interest method for our Senior Convertible Notes, over the respective expected life.

 

92



 

We record registration expenses related to shelf filings as prepaid assets. These expenses consist principally of Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registration fees, legal fees and accounting fees incurred. These prepaid assets will be charged to capital upon the receipt of an equity offering proceeds or charged to expense if no offering completed.

 

Guarantees and Indemnification Agreements

 

We follow ASC 460, Guarantees (“ASC 460”). ASC 460 elaborates on the disclosure requirements of a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, for those guarantees that are covered by ASC 460, the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees.

 

Per Share Information

 

Net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. In accordance with ASC 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, convertible securities are not considered in the calculation of net assets per share.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011-04 amends Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC 820”) by: (1) clarifying that the highest-and-best-use and valuation-premise concepts only apply to measuring the fair value of non-financial assets; (2) allowing a reporting entity to measure the fair value of the net asset or net liability position in a manner consistent with how market participants would price the net risk position, if certain criteria are met; (3) providing a framework for considering whether a premium or discount can be applied in a fair value measurement; (4) providing that the fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity is estimated from the perspective of a market participant that holds the identical item as an asset; and (5) expanding the qualitative and quantitative fair value disclosure requirements. The expanded disclosures include, for Level 3 items, a description of the valuation process and a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs and interrelationships between those inputs if a change in those inputs would result in a significantly different fair value measurement. ASU 2011-4 also requires disclosures about the highest-and-best-use of a non-financial asset when this use differs from the asset’s current use and the reasons for such a difference. In addition, this ASU amends Accounting Standards Codification 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” to require disclosures to include any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. These amendments were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the amended guidance in ASU 2011-04 did not have a significant effect on our financial statements.

 

In August 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2012-03, Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 114 (“SAB No. 114”), Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (“ASU 2012-03”). The update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114 and is effective upon issuance. The adoption of the amended guidance in ASU 2012-03 did not have a significant effect on our financial statements.

 

In October 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements (“ASU 2012-04”). The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and equity price risk. Some of the loans in our portfolio have floating interest rates.

 

93



 

We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of higher interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. During the three months ended December 31, 2012, we did not engage in hedging activities.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure of any material information relating to the Company that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of such of these matters as may arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We are not aware of any such litigation as of December 31, 2012.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in our most recent 10-K filing.
