NAV Per Share of $14.67

 

NEW YORK — November 4, 2020 — Owl Rock Capital Corporation (NYSE: ORCC, or the “Company”) today reported net investment income of $127.4 million, or $0.33 per share, and net income of $216.0 million, or $0.56 per share, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020.

Craig W. Packer, Chief Executive Officer of Owl Rock Capital Corporation commented, “We are pleased with our results this quarter, which we believe continue to demonstrate the merits of our strategy and the strength of our portfolio. Our investments have proven to be resilient in the face of a challenging economic backdrop and our credit performance has generally come in towards the higher end of what we could have hoped for at this point in the economic recovery.”

 

The Company’s Board of Directors has declared a fourth quarter 2020 dividend of $0.31 per share and had previously declared a special dividend of $0.08 per share, both for stockholders of record as of December 31, 2020, payable on or before January 19, 2021.

 

On November 3, 2020, the Board approved a repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $100 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Under the program, purchases may be made at management’s discretion from time to time in open-market transactions. Unless extended by the Board, the repurchase program will terminate 12-months from the date it was approved.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020

 

Investment Income

Investment income decreased to $187.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $188.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our portfolio’s weighted average yield at amortized cost, partially offset by an increase in our investment portfolio.

 

Expenses

Total expenses, after the effect of management and incentive fee waivers, increased to $60.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $49.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, which was

primarily due to an increase in net management fees, professional fees and interest expense. Net management fees increased as a result of an increase in total assets period over period. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by an increase in average daily borrowings, partially offset by a decrease in the average interest rate period over period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2020, we had $0.2 billion in cash and restricted cash, $4.3 billion in total principal value of debt outstanding, and $1.4 billion of undrawn capacity on our credit facilities. The Company’s weighted average interest rate on debt outstanding was 3.3% and 3.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively. Ending debt to equity was 0.72x and 0.60x during the three months ended September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

 

COVID-19 Developments

Through the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company’s operating results have been impacted by the current economic and financial market conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to assess the impact of COVID-19 on our portfolio companies. For additional information about the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on our results of operations and financial condition, please refer to the “COVID-19 Developments” section and additional disclosure in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
