VENTURE LENDING & LEASING V, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS OF THE FUND
Venture Lending & Leasing V, Inc. (the “Fund”), was incorporated in Maryland on August 21, 2006 as a nondiversified closed-end management investment company electing status as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") and is managed by Westech Investment Advisors, LLC, formerly known as Westech Investment Advisors, Inc. (“Manager” or “Management”).
One hundred percent of the stock of the Fund is held by Venture Lending & Leasing V, LLC (the “Company”).
Prior to commencing its operations on February 21, 2007, the Fund had no operations other than the sale to the Company of 100,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value for $25,000 in September 2006. This issuance of stock was a requirement in order to apply for a finance lender's license from the California Commissioner of Corporations, which was obtained by the Fund on January 10, 2007.
In the Manager's opinion, the accompanying financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for interim periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in audited annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted; however, the Fund believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The interim results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of what the results would be for a full year. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes included in the Fund's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand, money market funds, and demand deposits in banks with maturities of 90 days or less.
Interest Income
Interest income on loans is recognized using the effective interest method including amounts from the amortization of discounts attributable to equity securities received as part of the loan transaction. Additionally, fees received as part of the transaction are added to the loan discount and amortized over the life of the loan.
Valuation Procedures
The Fund accounts for loans at fair value in accordance with the “Valuation Methods” below. All valuations are determined under the direction of the Manager, in accordance with these methods.
The Fund's loans are valued in connection with the issuance of its periodic financial statements, the issuance or repurchase of the Fund's shares at a price equivalent to the current net asset value per share, and at such other times as required by law. On a quarterly basis, Management submits to the Board of Directors (“Board”) a “Valuation Report,” which details the rationale for the valuation of investments.
Valuation Methods
As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the financial statements include nonmarketable investments of $68.7 million and $105.3 million (or approximately 88% and 92% of total assets, respectively) with fair values determined by the Manager in the absence of readily determinable market values. Because of the illiquidity of the Fund's investments, a substantial portion of its assets are carried at fair value as determined by the Manager in accordance with the Fund's policy as approved by the Board of Directors. Because of the inherent uncertainty of these valuations, estimated fair values of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. Below is the information used by the Manager in making these estimates.
Loans
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to lower a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. There is no secondary market for the loans, hence Management determines fair value based on hypothetical markets. Venture loans are generally held to maturity and are recorded at estimated fair value. The determination of fair value is based on a number of factors including the amount for which an investment could be exchanged in a current sale, which assumes an orderly disposition over a reasonable period other than in a forced sale. Management considers the fact that no ready market exists for substantially all of the investments held by the Fund. Management determines whether to adjust the estimated fair value of a loan based on a number of factors including but not limited to the borrower's payment history, available cash and “burn rate,” revenues, net income or loss, the likelihood that the borrower will be able to secure additional financing in the future, as well as an evaluation of the general interest rate environment. The amount of any valuation adjustment is determined based upon a credit analysis of the borrower and an analysis of the expected recovery from the borrower, including consideration of factors such as the nature and quality of the Fund's security interests in collateral, the estimated value of the Fund's collateral, the size of the loan, and the estimated time that will elapse before the Fund achieves a recovery. We have evaluated these factors and have concluded that the effect of deterioration in the quality of the underlying collateral, increase in the size of the loan and increase in the estimated time to recovery would have the effect of lowering the value of the current portfolio of loans.
Nonaccrual Loans
The Fund's policy is to place a loan on nonaccrual status when the loan stops performing and Management deems that it is unlikely that the loan will return to performing status. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed for the quarter in which the loan was placed on nonaccrual status. Any uncollected interest related to quarters prior to when the loan was placed on nonaccrual status is added to the principal balance, and the aggregate balance of the principal and interest is evaluated in accordance with the policy for valuation of loans in determining Management's best estimate of fair value. Interest received by the Fund on nonaccrual loans will be recorded on a cash basis.
As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, loans with a cost basis of $13.3 million and $10.4 million and a fair value of $7.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively, have been classified as non-accrual.
Cash Equivalents
Money market funds held as Cash Equivalents are valued at their most recently traded net asset value.
Warrants
Warrants that are received in connection with loan transactions generally will be assigned a fair value at the time of acquisition. These securities are then distributed by the Fund to the Company at the assigned value. Warrants are valued based on a modified Black-Scholes option pricing model which takes into account underlying stock value, expected term, volatility, and risk-free interest rate, among other factors.
Underlying asset value is estimated based on information available, including information regarding recent rounds of funding of the portfolio company, or the publicly-quoted stock price at the end of the financial reporting period for warrants for comparable publicly-quoted securities.
Volatility, or the amount of uncertainty or risk about the size of the changes in the warrant price, is based on an index of publicly traded companies grouped by industry and which are similar in nature to the underlying client companies issuing the warrant (“Industry Index”). The volatility assumption for each Industry Index is based on the average volatility for individual public companies within the client company's industry for a period of time approximating the expected life of the warrants. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Fund is using the volatility rate ranging from 41% to 62%. The effect of a hypothetical increase in the volatility calculated from the indexes used in the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model would have the effect of increasing the value of the warrants.
The remaining expected lives of warrants are based on historical experience of the average life of the warrants, as warrants are often exercised in the event of acquisitions, mergers, or initial public offerings, and terminated due to events such as bankruptcies, restructuring activities, or additional financings. These events cause the expected term to be less than the remaining contractual term of the warrants. The remaining expected lives of warrants may be adjusted from time to time to reflect new facts and circumstances. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Fund is assuming the average duration of a warrant is 3 years. The effect of a hypothetical increase in the estimated initial term of the warrants used in the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model would have the effect of increasing the value of the warrants.
The risk-free interest rate is derived from the constant maturity tables issued by the U.S. Treasury Department. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Fund is using monthly risk free rate of 0.51%. The effect of a hypothetical increase in the estimated risk free rate used in the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model would have the effect of increasing the value of the warrants.
On an annual basis, the Fund engages an independent valuation company to provide valuation assistance. This company evaluates the Fund's valuation methodology and makes sure that the assumptions made in the valuation
model remain reasonable. The independent third party also calculates several of the inputs used such as volatility and risk free rate. Upon the receipt of such data, a sample test is performed to ensure the accuracy of the third party
calculations and that the source of data is reliable and consistent with the way in which the calculations were made in prior periods. Such inputs are entered into the database with a second review to ensure the accuracy of the input
information. All calculations of warrant values are performed by one employee and reviewed by a second party. The
inputs of the modified Black-Scholes option pricing model are reevaluated every quarter.
Other Assets and Liabilities
As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair values of Other Assets and Liabilities are estimated at their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these assets or liabilities based on Level 2 inputs.
Commitment Fees
Unearned income and commitment fees on loans are recognized using the effective interest method over the term of the loan. Commitment fees are carried as liabilities when received for commitments upon which no draws have been made. When the first draw is made, the fee is treated as unearned income and is recognized as described above. If a draw is never made, the forfeited commitment fee less any applicable legal costs becomes recognized as other income after the commitment expires.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS, which amends guidance on fair value measurements to clarify the FASB's intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements (e.g., to require entities to disclose quantitative information about the unobservable inputs used in a fair value measurement that is categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy) and to change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures about fair value measurements, including, among other things, (a) for fair value measurements categorized within Level III of the fair value hierarchy, (1) quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the measurement, and (2) a description of the valuation processes used by the reporting entity, and (3) 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 measurements and (b) the categorization by level of the fair value hierarchy for items that are not measured at fair value in the statement of assets and liabilities but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed.
The amended guidance is to be applied prospectively and is effective for public entities (like the Fund) for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early application permitted (but not earlier than interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011). The Fund adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012. The impact of the guidance is primarily limited to enhanced disclosures, and the adoption had a material impact on the Fund's 2012 disclosures.
Tax Status
As long as the Fund qualifies as a Regulated Investment Company ("RIC") it will not pay any federal or state corporate income tax on income that is distributed to its shareholder (pass-through status). Should the Fund not qualify as a RIC or lose its qualification as a RIC, it could be taxed as an ordinary corporation on its taxable income for that year (even if that income is distributed to its shareholder), and all distributions out of its earnings and profits would be taxable to its shareholder as ordinary income. As of June 30, 2012 the Fund had no uncertain tax positions.
The Fund's tax years open to examination by major jurisdictions are 2009 and forward.
3. SUMMARY OF INVESTMENTS
Loans generally are made to borrowers pursuant to commitments whereby the Fund agrees to finance assets and/or provide working or growth capital up to a specified amount for the term of the commitment, upon the terms and subject to the conditions specified by such commitment. As of June 30, 2012, the Fund's investments in loans are primarily to companies based within the United States and are diversified among borrowers in the industry segments shown below. The percentage of net assets that each industry group represents is shown with the industry totals below (the sum of the percentages does not equal 100 percent because the percentages are based on net assets as opposed to total loans). All loans are senior to unsecured creditors except where indicated.
The Fund defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability was exchanged in an orderly transaction; it was not a forced liquidation or distressed sale.
Loan balances are summarized by borrower. Typically a borrower's balance will be composed of several loans drawn under a commitment made by the Fund with the interest rate on each loan fixed at the time each loan is funded. Each loan drawn under a commitment may have a different maturity date and amount. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the weighted-average interest rate on the performing loans was 19.94% and 18.15%.
These rates were inclusive of both cash and non-cash interest income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the weighted-average interest rate on the cash portion of the interest income was 15.28% and 14.01%, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the weighted-average interest rate on the performing loans was 20.08% and 18.91%. Interest is calculated using the effective interest method, and rates earned by the Fund will fluctuate based on many factors including early payoffs, volatility of values ascribed to warrants, and loans funded during the year. The risk profile changes when events occur that impact the credit analysis of the borrower as discussed in our loan accounting policy. Such changes result in the fair value being adjusted from par value of the individual loan. Where the risk profile is consistent with the original underwriting, which is primarily the case for this loan portfolio, the par value of the loan approximates fair value.

*As of December 31, 2011, loans with a cost basis and fair value of $10.4 million and $5.3 million, respectively, have been classified as nonaccrual. During the period for which these loans have been on non-accrual status, no interest income has been recognized.
The Fund provides asset-based financing primarily to start-up and emerging growth venture-capital-backed companies. These loans are generally secured by assets of the borrowers. As a result, the Fund is subject to general credit risk associated with such companies. At June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, the Fund had unexpired unfunded commitments to borrowers of $0 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
Valuation Hierarchy
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used by the Fund's valuation techniques. A level is assigned to each fair value measurement based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:
|
| |
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date. |
| |
Level 2 | Prices or valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
| |
Level 3 | Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
Transfer of investments between levels of the fair value hierarchy were recorded on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no transfers in and out of Level 1, 2, and 3 during the period ended June 30, 2012.
The Fund's cash equivalents were valued at the traded net asset value of the money market fund. As a result, these measurements are classified as Level 1. The Fund uses estimated exit values when determining the value of its investments. Because these transactions are individually negotiated and unique, and there is no market in which these assets trade, the inputs for these assets, which are discussed in the Valuation Methods listed above, are classified as Level 3.
The following table presents the balances of assets as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations by the weighted average common shares outstanding, including the dilutive effects of potential common shares (e.g., stock options). The Fund has no instruments that would be potential common shares; thus, reported basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.
5. CAPITAL STOCK
As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were 10,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock authorized, and 100,000 shares issued and outstanding. Total committed capital of the Company is $270.0 million. Total contributed capital to the Company through June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $202.5 million, of which $193.5 million was contributed to the Fund.
The chart below shows the distributions of the Fund for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
|
| | | | | | | |
| For the Six Months Ended | | For the Six Months Ended |
| June 30, 2012 | | June 30, 2011 |

|
Final classification of the distributions as either a return of capital or a distribution of income is an annual determination made at the end of each year dependent upon the Fund's current year and cumulative earnings and profits.
6. DEBT FACILITY
On February 20, 2009, the Fund entered into agreements with Union Bank, N.A. that established a secured revolving loan facility in an initial amount of up to $30,000,000. Loans under the facility may have been, at the option of the Fund, either Reference Rate loans or LIBOR loans. The interest rate on this facility was LIBOR plus
2.50 percent or Reference Rate (as defined in the agreement) plus 0.75 percent. The facility terminated on February 18, 2011. The balance of the Fund's outstanding debt as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2012 was zero.
The Fund paid a commitment fee of 0.40 percent (annual fee paid quarterly) based on the total commitment related to the facility.
Bank fees of $155,000 were incurred in connection with initially procuring the facility. Legal costs of $139,963 were incurred in negotiating the facility. Prior to the termination of the facility, both the bank fees and the legal costs were being capitalized on a straight line basis over the expected life of the facility (February 2011). The facility terminated in February 2011 and all bank fees and legal costs are fully amortized.
7. OTHER INVESTMENTS
Other Investment at June 30, 2012 is comprised of an interest in Sensors Licensing, LLC ("SL LLC").
In 2009, the Fund repossessed the collateral from a borrower who was having financial difficulties. At the time of the repossession, the loan from the borrower had a cost basis of $2,433,298 and a book value of $1,213,298. The repossessed assets were immediately contributed to SL LLC, a newly formed LLC in conjunction with a licensing agreement between SL LLC and an unaffiliated third party. The Fund and Venture Lending & Leasing IV, Inc. each have a 50% ownership interest in SL LLC.
At the time the assets were contributed to SL LLC they were valued at $1,750,000 based on expectations of cash flows from the licensing arrangement. The Fund took a realized loss on the loan in the amount of $1,558,298 at the time the transaction was consummated in 2009. The realized loss is the difference between the Fund's portion of the value of the assets repossessed and the book value of $2,433,298.
SL LLC collected $200,000 and distributed $100,000 to the Fund. The unaffiliated third party canceled the licensing agreement during 2009. SL LLC continues to distribute proceeds from the sale of equipment as cash becomes available.
Because the collateral is highly customized and no current buyer or lessee has been identified, the Fund had taken a $735,000 fair market reduction in 2009, which represents the difference between the previously determined fair value, the collections to date, and the expected liquidation value of the assets should no buyer or lessee be found. The Fund's portion of the expected liquidation value of the asset as of June 30, 2012 is $32,403.
8. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require disclosure of financial highlights of the Fund for the periods presented, the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The total rate of return is defined as the return based on the change in value during the period of a theoretical investment made at the beginning of the period. The total rate of return assumes a constant rate of return for the Fund during the period reported and weights each cash flow by the amount of time held in the Fund. This required methodology differs from an internal rate of return.
The ratios of expenses and net investment income to average net assets, calculated below, are annualized and are computed based upon the aggregate weighted average net assets of the Fund for the periods presented. Net investment income is inclusive of all investment income net of expenses, and excludes realized or unrealized gains and losses.
Beginning and ending net asset values per share are based on the beginning and ending number of shares outstanding. Other per share information is calculated based upon the aggregate weighted average net assets of the Fund for the periods presented.
The following per share data and ratios have been derived from the information provided in the financial statements:

**Historically, the Fund has disclosed total return on an annualized basis. Beginning with the three month period and six month period ended June 30, 2012, the Fund does not disclose total return on an annualized basis. If the total return had not been annualized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the total return for the Fund would have been 4.22% and 8.14%, respectively. |
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the securities laws. These forward-looking statements reflect the current view of Venture Lending & Leasing V, Inc. (the “Fund”) with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Fund's control. All statements, other than statements of historical facts included in this report, regarding the strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of the Fund are forward-looking statements. When used in this report, the words “will”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. The Fund does not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
General
The Fund is 100% owned by Venture Lending & Leasing V, LLC (the “Company”). The Fund's shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value were sold to its shareholder under a stock purchase agreement. The Fund has issued 100,000 of the Fund's 10,000,000 authorized shares. The Fund's shareholder may make additional capital contributions to the Fund.
In addition to the historical information contained herein, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. The reader of this Quarterly Report should understand that all such forward-looking statements are subject to various uncertainties and risks that could affect their outcome. The Fund's actual results could differ materially from those suggested by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, variances in the actual versus projected growth in assets, return on assets, loan losses, expenses, rates charged on loans and earned on securities investments and competition. This entire Quarterly Report should be read to put such forward-looking statements in context and to gain a more complete understanding of the uncertainties and risks involved in the Fund's business.
Overview
The Fund is a financial services company primarily providing financing and advisory services to a variety of carefully selected venture-backed companies primarily located throughout the United States with a focus on growth oriented companies. The Fund's portfolio is expected to become well diversified and consists of companies in the communications, information services, media, and technology, including software and technology-enabled business services, bio-technology, and medical devices industry sectors, among others. The Fund's capital is generally used by our portfolio companies to finance acquisitions of fixed assets and/or for working capital. On February 21, 2007, the Fund completed its first closing of capital contributions, made its first investments, and became a non-diversified, closed-end investment company that elected to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code with the filing of its federal corporate income tax return for 2007. Pursuant to this election, the Fund generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income it distributes to the stockholder as dividends, allowing the Fund's shareholder to substantially reduce or eliminate its corporate-level tax liability.
The Fund will seek to meet the ongoing requirements, including the diversification requirements, to qualify as a Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code. If the Fund fails to meet these requirements, it would be taxed as an ordinary corporation on its taxable income for that year (even if that income were distributed to the Company) and all distributions out of its earnings and profits would be taxable to the Members of the Company as ordinary income; thus, such income would be subject to a double layer of tax. There is no assurance that the Fund will meet the ongoing requirements to qualify as a RIC for tax purposes.
The Fund's investment objective is to achieve a high total return. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by providing debt financing to portfolio companies. Since inception, the Fund's investing activities have focused primarily on private debt securities. The Fund generally receives warrants to acquire equity securities in connection with its portfolio investments. The Fund generally distributes these warrants to its shareholder upon receipt. The Fund also has guidelines for the percentages of total assets which will be invested in different types of assets.
The portfolio investments of the Fund consist of debt financing to early and late stage venture capital backed technology companies. The borrowers' ability to repay their loans may be adversely impacted by a number of factors, and as a result, loans may not fully be repaid. Furthermore, the Fund's security interest in any collateral over the borrower's assets may be insufficient to make up any shortfall in payments.
Transactions with Venture Lending & Leasing VI, Inc. (“Fund VI”)
The Manager also serves as investment manager for Fund VI. Initially the amount of each Investment has been allocated 50% to the Fund and 50% to Fund VI so long as the Fund has capital available to invest. After February 2011, the Fund is no longer permitted to enter into new commitments to borrowers; however, the Fund is permitted to fund existing commitments. While investing the Fund's capital in the same companies in which Fund VI is also investing should provide the Fund with greater diversification and access to larger transactions, it can also result in a slower pace of investment than would be the case if the Fund were investing in companies by itself.
Critical Accounting Policies
We identified and determined the most critical accounting principles upon which our financial statements depend by considering accounting policies that involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments. Such critical accounting policies relate to the valuation of loans and treatment of non-accrual loans.
Loans are held at estimated fair value as determined by Management, in accordance with the valuation methods described in the valuation of loans section of Note 2 of the Fund's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies). Critical factors in determining the fair value of a loan include payment history, collateral position, financial strength of the borrower, prospects for the borrower raising future equity rounds, likelihood of sale or acquisition of the borrower, and length of expected holding period of the loan, as well as an evaluation of the general interest rate environment. The actual value of the loans may differ from Management's estimates which would affect net income as well as assets.
Results of Operations - For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Total investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3.7 million and $7.7 million, respectively, which primarily consisted of interest on the venture loans outstanding. The remaining income consisted of interest and dividends on the temporary investment of cash, late fees and fees earned from waivers to loan agreements. The decrease in investment income is due to the decrease in the average loans outstanding from $132.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $74.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and the decrease in average yield from 20.08% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 19.94% for the three months ended June 30, 2012, which is not unexpected at this stage of the life of the Fund.
Total investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $7.8 million and $13.6 million, respectively, which primarily consisted of interest on the venture loans outstanding. The remaining income consisted of interest and dividends on the temporary investment of cash, late fees and fees earned from waivers to loan agreements. The decrease in investment income is due to the decrease in the average loans outstanding from $133.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $83.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and the decrease in average yield from 18.91% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 18.15% for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which is not unexpected at this stage of the life of the Fund.
Management fees for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $0.5 million and $1.0 million,
respectively. Management fees for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $1.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Management fees are equal to 2.5% of assets under management. As management fees are based on assets under management, the decrease is due to the decrease in assets under management relative to the previous year.
Total interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $0 and less than $0.1 million. In 2011, no debt was drawn and the interest expense is composed of fees associated with the facility.
Total banking and professional fees for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were less than $0.1 million. Total banking and professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
Total other operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were less than $0.1 million.
Net investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3.1 million and $6.7 million, respectively. Net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $6.4 million and $11.4 million, respectively.
Total net realized loss from investments was $0.5 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total net realized loss from investments was $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.
Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from investments was $(0.5) million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The unrealized gain (loss) consists of fair market value adjustments to loans. Net change in unrealized gain (loss) from investments was $(1.1) million and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The unrealized gain (loss) consists of fair market value adjustments to loans.
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $2.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively. On a per share basis, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $21.74 and $66.53 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $4.9 million and $12.7 million, respectively. On a per share basis, the net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $49.09 and $126.84 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources - June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011
Total capital contributed to the Fund was $193.5 million, prior to distribution of capital, as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Committed capital to the Company at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $270.0 million, of which $202.5 million has been called. The remaining $67.5 million in committed capital as of June 30, 2012 remains uncalled. On December 9, 2011, the Fund's board resolved that no future capital calls would be made, thus the Fund no longer has access to additional capital from investors.
As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, 11.2% and 6.7%, respectively, of the Fund's assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents. The Fund invested its assets in venture loans during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Amounts disbursed under the Fund's loan commitments totaled approximately $0.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012. Net loan amounts outstanding after amortization and fair market adjustment decreased by approximately $36.6 million for the same period. Unexpired, unfunded commitments totaled $0 million as of June 30, 2012.
|
| | | | |
As of | Cumulative Amount Disbursed | Principal Reductions and Fair Market Adjustments | Balance Outstanding – Fair Value | Unexpired Unfunded Commitments |
June 30, 2012 | 450.7 million | 382.0 million | 68.7 million | 0 million |
December 31, 2011 | $450.2 million | $344.9 million | $105.3 million | $4.5 million |
Venture loans are privately negotiated transactions. Investments in these assets are relatively illiquid. It is the Fund's experience that not all unfunded commitments will be used by borrowers.
The Fund seeks to meet the requirements to qualify for the special pass-through status available to RICs under the Internal Revenue Code, and thus to be relieved of federal income tax on that part of its net investment income and realized capital gains that it distributes to its shareholder. To qualify as a RIC, the Fund must distribute to its shareholder for each taxable year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (consisting generally of net investment income and net short-term capital gain) (“Distribution Requirement”). To the extent that the terms of the Fund's venture loans provide for the receipt by the Fund of additional interest at the end of the loan term or provide for the receipt by the Fund of a purchase price for the asset at the end of the loan term (“residual income”), the Fund would be required to accrue such residual income over the life of the loan, and to include such accrued income in its gross income for each taxable year even if it receives no portion of such residual income in that year. Thus, in order to meet the Distribution Requirement and avoid payment of income taxes or an excise tax on undistributed income, the Fund may be required in a particular year to distribute as a dividend an amount in excess of the total amount of income it actually receives. Those distributions will be made from the Fund's cash assets, from amounts received through amortization of loans or from borrowed funds.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Fund's business activities contain elements of risk. The Fund considers the principal types of market risk to be interest rate risk and credit risk. The Fund considers the management of risk essential to conducting its business and to maintaining profitability. Accordingly, the Fund's risk management procedures are designed to identify and analyze the Fund's risks, to set appropriate policies and limits and to continually monitor these risks and limits by means of reliable administrative and information systems and other policies and programs.
The Fund anticipates managing its credit risk by maintaining a portfolio that is diverse by industry, size of investment, stage of development, and borrower. The Fund has limited exposure to public market price fluctuations as the Fund primarily invests in private business enterprises and the Fund generally distributes all equity securities upon receipt to the Company.
The Fund's investments are subject to market risk based on several factors, including, but not limited to, the investment's credit history, available cash, support of its investors, available liquidity, "burn rate", revenue income, security interest, secondary markets for collateral, the size of the loan, and term of the loan.
The Fund's sensitivity to changes in interest rates is regularly monitored and analyzed by measuring the characteristics of assets and liabilities. The Fund utilizes various methods to assess interest rate risk in terms of the potential effect on interest income net of interest expense, the value of net assets and the value at risk in an effort to ensure that the Fund is insulated from any significant adverse effects from changes in interest rates.
Based on the model used for the sensitivity of interest income net of interest expense, if the balance sheet were to remain constant and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate sensitivity, a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point change in interest rates would have affected net income by less than $0.1 million. This translates to less than 1% of net income for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Although Management believes that this measure is indicative of the Fund's sensitivity to interest rate changes, it makes estimates to adjust for potential changes in credit quality, size and composition of the balance sheet and other business developments that could affect net income. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from the potential outcome simulated by these estimates.

Based upon this evaluation, the Fund's chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Fund's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them of any material information relating to the Fund that is required to be disclosed by the Fund in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Changes in Internal Controls:
There were no changes in the Fund's internal controls or in other factors that could materially affect these controls during the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Fund may become party to certain lawsuits from time to time in the normal course of business. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, the Fund does not expect these proceedings will have a material effect upon the Fund's financial condition or results of operation. Management is not aware of any pending legal proceedings involving the Fund.

No other shares of the Fund have been sold; however, the Fund received an additional $193.5 million of paid in capital during the period from February 21, 2007 through June 30, 2012 which has been and will be used to acquire venture loans and fund operations.
