Investment Valuation

 

Shares of publicly traded companies listed on national securities exchanges or trading in the over-the-counter market are typically valued at the last sale price, as of the close of trading, generally 4 p.m., Eastern Time. The Board of Trustees of the Fund (the Trustees) has established and approved fair valuation policies and procedures with respect to securities for which quoted prices may not be available or which do not reflect fair value. Convertible, corporate and government bonds are valued using a third-party pricing service. Convertible bonds are valued using this pricing service only on days when there is no sale reported. Restricted securities of companies that are publicly traded are typically valued based on the closing market quote on the valuation date adjusted for the impact of the restriction as determined in good faith by Tekla Capital Management LLC (the Adviser) also using fair valuation policies and procedures approved by the Trustees described below. Non-exchange traded warrants of publicly traded companies are generally valued using the Black-Scholes model, which incorporates both observable and unobservable inputs. Short-term investments with a maturity of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

 

Convertible preferred shares, warrants or convertible note interests in private companies, milestone interests, and other restricted securities, as well as shares of publicly traded companies for which market quotations are not readily available, such as stocks for which trading has been halted or for which there are no current day sales, or which do not reflect fair value, are typically valued in good faith, based upon the recommendations made by the Adviser pursuant to fair valuation policies and procedures approved by the Trustees.

 

The Adviser has a Valuation Sub-Committee comprised of senior management which reports to the Valuation Committee of the Board at least quarterly. Each fair value determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, including both observable and unobservable inputs. Observable and unobservable inputs the Adviser considers may include (i) the existence of any contractual restrictions on the disposition of securities; (ii) information obtained from the company, which may include an analysis of the company’s financial statements, products, intended markets or technologies; (iii) the price of the same or similar security negotiated at arm’s length in an issuer’s completed subsequent round of financing; (iv) the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; or (v) a probability and time value adjusted analysis of contractual terms. Where available and appropriate, multiple valuation methodologies are applied to confirm fair value. Significant unobservable inputs identified by the Adviser are often used in the fair value determination. A significant change in any of these inputs may result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and differences could be material. Additionally, 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 from the valuations used at the date of this schedule of investments.

 

Federal Income Tax Cost

 

At June 30, 2022, the cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes was $371,632,133. The net unrealized gain on securities held by the Fund was $29,651,431, including gross unrealized gain of $114,245,986 and gross unrealized loss of $84,594,555.

 

Securities Lending

 

The Fund may lend its securities to approved borrowers to earn additional income. The Fund receives cash collateral from the borrower and the initial collateral received by the fund is required to have a value of at least 102% of the current value of the loaned securities traded on U.S. exchanges, and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The Fund will invest its cash collateral in State Street Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Fund (SAHXX), which is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an investment company. SAHXX invests substantially all of its assets in the State Street U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio. The Fund will receive the benefit of any gains and bear any losses generated by SAHXX with respect to the cash collateral.

 

The Fund has the right to recall loaned securities on demand. If a borrower fails to return loaned securities when due, then the lending agent is responsible and indemnifies the Fund for the lent securities. The lending agent uses the collateral received from the borrower to purchase replacement securities of the same issue, type, class and series of the loaned securities. If the value of the collateral is less than the purchase cost of replacement securities, the lending agent is responsible for satisfying the shortfall but only to the extent that the shortfall is not due to any decrease in the value of SAHXX.

Although the risk of loss on securities lent is mitigated by receiving collateral from the borrower and through lending agent indemnification, the Fund could experience a delay in recovering securities or could experience a lower than expected return if the borrower fails to return the securities on a timely basis. The Fund receives compensation for lending its securities by retaining a portion of the return on the investment of the collateral and compensation from fees earned from borrowers of the securities. Securities lending income received by the Fund is net of fees retained by the securities lending agent. Net income received from SAHXX is a component of securities lending income as recorded by the Fund.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Fund loaned securities valued at $9,219,824 and received $9,479,908 of cash collateral.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Fund uses a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels. Level 1 includes quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. Level 2 includes prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, credit risk, etc.). The independent pricing vendor may value bank loans and debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, and/or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities and such securities are considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 includes prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). These inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

For the period ended June 30, 2022, the total amount of transfers between Level 3 and Level 1 was $1,920,138. The two investments were transferred due to an initial public offering and the values are being supported by the market price. There were no other transfers between levels.

 

The following is a summary of the levels used as of June 30, 2022 to value the Fund's investments.
