Summary of Quarterly Results
First Fiscal Quarter 2013 Highlights
Net investment income for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $9.6 million, or $0.34 per share, as compared to $7.81 million, or $0.301 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $9.3 million, or $0.33 per share, as compared to $8.7 million, or $0.34 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
New middle-market investment commitments in the amount of $262.2 million were made for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Approximately 22.2% of the new investment commitments were senior secured loans, 61.4% were one stop loans, 15.0% were second lien loans and 1.4% were equity securities. Of the new investment commitments, $221.6 million funded at close. Overall, total investments in portfolio companies at fair value increased by approximately $95.4 million during the three months ended December 31, 2012 after factoring in debt repayments and sales of securities.
Our wholly owned subsidiary, GC SBIC V, L.P., received approval for a license from the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to operate as a small business investment company (“SBIC”).
We amended our revolving credit facility, which, among other things, increased the size of the revolving credit facility from $75 million to $150 million and extended the stated maturity date to October 20, 2017.
| 1. | Net investment income, including net spread payments of $0.1 million from the total return swap (“TRS”), was $0.31 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. As a supplement to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company has provided this non-GAAP performance result for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The TRS was terminated and no income from the TRS was received in the three months ended December 31, 2012. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful because it is inclusive of net spread payments received on the underlying loans in the TRS which was a recurring source of revenue and liquidity to pay dividends to investors. Although this non-GAAP financial measure is intended to enhance investor’s understanding of the Company’s business and performance, this non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. Refer to slide 2 for a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure, earnings per share. |

Summary of Portfolio Highlights
Originations and Net Funds Growth
New commitments totaled $262.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.
Net growth in investments in securities, at fair value, for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 was $95.4 million, a 14.2% increase from September 30, 2012.
Net funds growth includes the impact of new investments and exits of investments as noted in the table above, as well as other variables such as net fundings on revolvers, net change in unamortized fees, net change in unrealized gains (losses), etc.
Quarterly Statements of Financial Condition
On September 13, 2011, we received exemptive relief from the SEC to permit us to exclude the debt of our small business investment company (“SBIC”) subsidiary from our 200% asset coverage test. As such, the asset coverage ratio excludes the debentures from the SBIC. For purposes of compliance with the asset coverage ratio test, the Company agreed with the staff of the SEC to treat the outstanding notional amount of the TRS, less the initial amount of any cash collateral required to be posted by us under the TRS, as a senior security for the life of that instrument. The TRS was terminated in April 2012. As such, only the March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 asset coverage ratios were affected.
Quarterly Operating Results
Portfolio Highlights – Asset Mix
Portfolio Highlights – Debt Investment Spread Analysis
| 1. | Total yield on investments is calculated as (a) the actual amount earned on such investments, including interest income and amortization of fees and discounts, divided by (b) the daily average of total earning investments at fair value. |
| 2. | Interest income yield is calculated as (a) the actual amount earned on such investments, including interest income but excluding amortization of fees and discounts, divided by (b) the daily average of total investments at fair value. |
| 3. | The weighted average cost of debt is calculated as (a) the actual amount incurred on such debt obligations divided by (b) the daily average of total debt obligations. |
4. The weighted average investment spread is calculated as (a) the total yield on investments less (b) the weighted average cost of debt.
Portfolio Highlights – Selected Information
| 1. | Weighted average interest rate on new investments is based on the contractual interest rate at the time of funding. For variable rate loans, the contractual rate is calculated using current LIBOR, the spread over LIBOR and the impact of any LIBOR floor. For fixed rate loans, the contract rate is the stated fixed rate. |
| 2. | For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we have excluded $20.4 million of broadly syndicated loans held for short term investment purposes. These loans had a weighted average interest rate of 2.6% and a weighted average spread over LIBOR of 2.2%. Had we included the broadly syndicated loans in these rates, our weighted average interest rate of new investments would have been 5.9% and our weighted average spread over LIBOR would have been 4.8%. |
3. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we have excluded $22.0 million of broadly syndicated loans held for short term investment purposes. These loans had a weighted average interest rate of 3.9% and a weighted average spread over LIBOR of 3.3%. Had we included the broadly syndicated loans in these rates, our weighted average interest rate of new investments would have been 7.8% and our weighted average spread over LIBOR would have been 5.3%.
