Portfolio and Investment Activity

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2011, we funded investments to one new portfolio company of $10.0 million and an additional $4.8 million to existing portfolio companies. Also during the first quarter of 2011, we received principal repayments, realizations and settlements of $28.4 million in 2011. From commencement of investment operations in November 2004 through March 31, 2011, we have invested $776.8 million in thirty-five portfolio companies, all energy-related, and received principal repayments, realizations and settlements of $545.4 million. At March 31, 2011, our targeted investment portfolio consisted of nineteen portfolio companies totaling $231.4 million.  

The weighted average yield on targeted portfolio investments (exclusive of capital gains or losses) was 9.2% at March 31, 2011.

Operating Results – Three months ended March 31, 2011

Investment income totaled $6.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, with $5.8 million attributable to interest from our targeted portfolio investments, $0.8 million attributable to royalty income and other income.  Operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 were $2.9 million and included $1.3 million of advisory and management fees, $0.3 million of interest expense and credit facility fees and $1.3 million of general and administrative expenses. The resulting net investment income, including a $0.7 million provision for income taxes, was $3.0 million.  

We had net realized capital losses before income taxes of $0.5 million resulting from a $1.1 million loss on the sale of our senior notes of Pioneer Natural Resources Co., partially offset by a $0.5 million gain on the sale of GMX Resources, Inc. Senior Convertible Notes. We also recorded $0.1 million gain on the sale of our overriding royalty interest in TierraMar Energy, LP.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we experienced net unrealized depreciation of $6.4 million before income tax benefits of $0.7 million due to decreases in targeted portfolio fair values as a result of changes in the estimated current market values of underlying assets.

Overall, we had a net decrease in stockholders' equity (net assets) resulting from operations of $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and dividends declared during the period of $0.18 per common share, resulting in stockholders' equity (net assets) per common share of $10.57 as of  March 31, 2011. 

Subsequent Events  

On April 28, 2011, we closed a $13.5 million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the "Facility") with Spirit Resources, LLC ("Spirit"), a private oil and gas company based in Fort Worth, Texas. We acted as agent and sole lender for the Facility. Initial availability under the Facility is $12.3 million with approximately $5.2 million funded at closing. The Facility is secured by first liens on substantially all of Spirit's assets and pays interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum. As partial consideration for providing the Facility, we received warrants to purchase equity interests in Spirit. Spirit used proceeds from the Facility to acquire and develop oil and gas properties in Texas and Oklahoma. 

On April 29, 2011, Greenleaf Investments, LLC ("Greenleaf") repaid its entire $8.1 million Senior Secured Multiple Advance Term Loan.  Concurrently, we sold our overriding royalty interest in Greenleaf for $1.0 million, resulting in a realized capital gain of approximately $1.0 million, which we will record in the quarter ending June 30, 2011, when we also will reverse approximately $0.4 million of previously recorded unrealized appreciation.
