MCLEAN, Va., Aug. 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Gladstone Investment Corporation (Nasdaq: GAIN) (the "Company") today announced earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. All per share references are per basic and diluted weighted average common share outstanding, unless noted otherwise.

Net Investment Income for the Quarter: Net Investment Income for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $3.5 million, or $0.16 per share, and $4.2 million, or $0.19 per share, respectively, a decrease in Net Investment Income of 16.8%. The decrease in Net Investment Income was primarily due to a significant amount of other income, including success fees and dividend income, recorded in the prior-year period as part of the A. Stucki Holding Corp. ("A. Stucki") exit in June 2010.
Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations for the Quarter: Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations for the quarters ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $4.2 million, or $0.19 per share, and $5.4 million, or $0.24 per share, respectively, a decrease of 22%. A net gain on investments of $0.7 million was recorded for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to appreciation experienced in certain control investments, as compared to a $1.2 million net gain in the prior-year period, due primarily to appreciation experienced in certain equity investments.
Investment Portfolio Fair Value: As of June 30, 2011, the entire portfolio was fair valued at 77.1% of cost, as compared to 77.7% as of March 31, 2011. The aggregate investment portfolio depreciated during the quarter ended June 30, 2011, due primarily to the recapitalization of Cavert II Holding Corp. ("Cavert"), which resulted in a realized gain and the reversal of unrealized appreciation that was reflected in the portfolio's fair value at March 31, 2011. Excluding reversals, net unrealized appreciation for the quarter was $1.1 million.
Net Asset Value: Net asset value was $9.06 per share outstanding at June 30, 2011, as compared to $9.00 per share outstanding at March 31, 2011.
Asset Characteristics: Total assets were $242.1 million at June 30, 2011, as compared to $241.1 million at March 31, 2011. At June 30, 2011, the Company had investments in 17 portfolio companies with an aggregate cost basis of $214.3 million and an aggregate fair value of $165.3 million. As of June 30, 2011, the Company's investment portfolio at fair value was comprised of 80.9% in debt securities and 19.1% in equity securities. Additionally, the Company held $68.9 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2011, including $40.0 million from a short-term loan that was repaid subsequent to quarter end.
Investment Yield: The weighted average yield on the Company's interest-bearing portfolio, excluding cash and cash equivalents, was 12.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, as compared to 10.3% for the prior-year quarter. The increase in the weighted average yield for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, resulted primarily from the exits of lower interest-bearing debt investments and the addition of higher-yielding debt investments subsequent to June 30, 2010.
Highlights for the Quarter: During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the following significant events occurred:
Comments from our President, Dave Dullum: "We achieved realized gains through a recapitalization of our investment in Cavert, the third such successful realized event over the past year in our proprietary portfolio. These exits have collectively resulted in $29.2 million in realized gains and $9.9 million in investment income. We are continuing to strive to put these proceeds to work, as demonstrated with our $16.4 million investment in Mitchell in April. All of this activity and effort enabled us to increase the monthly dividend by 25% over the past two quarters. We hope to continue this healthy investment activity and to carry that momentum throughout the fiscal year."
Subsequent Events: After June 30, 2011, the following occurred:
