Note 1. Principal Business and Organization

FS Investment Corporation II, or the Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on July 13, 2011 and commenced operations on June 18, 2012 upon raising gross proceeds in excess of $2,500, or the minimum offering requirement, from sales of shares of its common stock in its continuous public offering to persons who were not affiliated with the Company or the Company’s investment adviser, FSIC II Advisor, LLC, or FSIC II Advisor, a private investment firm that is registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or the Advisers Act, and an affiliate of the Company. Prior to satisfying the minimum offering requirement, the Company had no operations except for matters relating to its organization and registration as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company.

The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or RIC, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had four wholly-owned financing subsidiaries, Del River LLC, or Del River, Cobbs Creek LLC, or Cobbs Creek, Lehigh River LLC, or Lehigh River, and Cooper River LLC, or Cooper River, and a fifth wholly-owned subsidiary, IC II American Energy Investments, Inc., through which it holds its equity interest in American Energy Ohio Holdings, LLC, a non-controlled and non-affiliated portfolio company. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include both the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of September 30, 2013. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company’s investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private U.S. companies. The Company seeks to generate superior risk-adjusted returns by focusing on debt investments in a broad array of private U.S. companies, including middle market companies, which the Company defines as companies with annual revenues of $50 million to $2.5 billion at the time of investment. The Company may purchase interests in loans through secondary market transactions in the “over-the-counter” market for institutional loans or directly from its target companies as primary market investments.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, the Company’s interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with its audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. The December 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheet and consolidated schedule of investments are derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

ended December 31, 2012. The Company has evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. Many of the amounts have been rounded and all amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee: The Company has entered into an investment advisory and administrative services agreement with FSIC II Advisor, dated as of February 8, 2012, or the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement). Such fee will equal 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains (i.e., the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. On a quarterly basis, the Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.

While the investment advisory and administrative services agreement neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an interpretation of an American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, or AICPA, Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, the Company includes unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to FSIC II Advisor if the Company’s entire portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though FSIC II Advisor is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

In addition, the Company historically treated all net settlement payments received by the Company pursuant to its total return swap, or TRS (which is described more fully in Note 8), as realized capital gains and included only the aggregate amount of unrealized depreciation on the TRS as a whole in calculating the capital gains incentive fee payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to realized gains, in each case, in accordance with GAAP. However, the staff of the Division of Investment Management of the SEC, or the Staff, informed the Company that it is their interpretation of the applicable language in the Advisers Act that the Company should “look through” the TRS in calculating its capital gains incentive fee. Under this “look through” methodology, the portion of the net settlement payments received by the Company pursuant to the TRS which would have represented net investment income to the Company had the Company held the loans or securities underlying the TRS directly would be treated as net investment income subject to the subordinated incentive fee on income payable to FSIC II Advisor pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, rather than as realized capital gains in accordance with GAAP, and any unrealized depreciation on individual loans or securities underlying the TRS would further reduce the capital gains incentive fee payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to realized gains. FSIC II Advisor voluntarily agreed to waive any capital gains incentive fee

calculated in accordance with GAAP to which it would otherwise be entitled in respect of the TRS if and to the extent that the amount of such fee exceeds the sum of (i) the amount of capital gains incentive fee determined in respect of the TRS on a “look through” basis under which the Company treats the reference assets underlying the TRS as investments of the Company and (ii) the aggregate amount of subordinated incentive fees on income which would have been payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to the portion of the net settlement payments received by the Company pursuant to the TRS which represent net investment income on the loans or securities underlying the TRS on a “look through” basis.

The amount of capital gains incentive fees accrued by the Company as of December 31, 2012 exceeded by $441 the amount of incentive fees which would have been payable to FSIC II Advisor as of such date in accordance with the “look through” methodology. In accordance with FSIC II Advisor’s voluntary agreement to waive any such excess, the Company reduced the amount of accrued capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor by $441 effective as of March 31, 2013. The Company made a corresponding reduction to the amount of expense reimbursement due from sponsor as of March 31, 2013, which also reduced by $441 the amount of expense recoupment payable to sponsor as of March 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the aggregate capital gains incentive fees paid to FSIC II Advisor in prior periods and accrued as of such date with respect to realized gains in accordance with GAAP did not exceed the fees which would have been payable in accordance with the “look through” methodology. On June 13, 2013, the Company terminated the TRS.

Subordinated Income Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on adjusted capital, as defined in the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will receive 20.0% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported.

Status of Continuous Public Offering

Since commencing its continuous public offering and through October 29, 2013, the Company has sold 212,123,966 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $2,176,627. As of October 29, 2013, the Company had raised total gross proceeds of $2,195,222, including $200 of seed capital contributed by the principals of FSIC II Advisor in December 2011 and $18,395 in proceeds raised from principals of FSIC II Advisor, other individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor, certain members of the Company’s board of directors and certain individuals and entities affiliated with GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC, or GDFM, the Company’s investment sub-adviser, in a private placement completed in June 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company sold 143,511,165 and 23,265,420 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $1,485,088 and $229,467 at an average price per share of $10.35 and $9.86, respectively. The gross proceeds received during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 include reinvested stockholder distributions of $37,108 and $640, respectively, for which the Company issued 3,940,816 and 67,356 shares of common stock, respectively. During the period from October 1, 2013 to October 29, 2013, the Company sold 13,041,273 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $135,591 at an average price per share of $10.40.

The proceeds from the issuance of common stock as presented on the Company’s unaudited consolidated statements of changes in net assets and unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows are presented net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees of $135,496 and $19,874 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Prior to September 11, 2013, the Company accepted subscriptions on a continuous basis and issued shares of common stock at semi-monthly closings. On September 11, 2013, the Company transitioned from semi-monthly closings to weekly closings for the sale of shares of common stock in its continuous public offering. Shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan typically will be issued on the same date that the Company holds its last weekly closing within a month.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company intends to conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to its share repurchase program. The Company’s board of directors will consider the following factors, among others, in making its determination regarding whether to cause the Company to offer to repurchase shares of common stock and under what terms:

 

   

the effect of such repurchases on the Company’s qualification as a RIC (including the consequences of any necessary asset sales);

 

   

the liquidity of the Company’s assets (including fees and costs associated with disposing of assets);

 

   

the Company’s investment plans and working capital requirements;

 

   

the relative economies of scale with respect to the Company’s size;

 

   

the Company’s history in repurchasing shares of common stock or portions thereof; and

 

   

the condition of the securities markets.

The Company currently intends to limit the number of shares of common stock to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares of common stock it can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the sale of shares of common stock under its distribution reinvestment plan. At the discretion of the Company’s board of directors, the Company may also use cash on hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from the liquidation of securities investments as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares of common stock. In addition, the Company will limit the number of shares of common stock to be repurchased in any calendar year to 10% of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding in the prior calendar year, or 2.5% in each quarter, though the actual number of shares of common stock that the Company offers to repurchase may be less in light of the limitations noted above. The Company intends to offer to repurchase such shares of common stock on each date of repurchase at a price equal to 90% of the offering price in effect on the date of repurchase. In months in which the Company repurchases shares of common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program, it expects to conduct repurchases on the same date that it holds its first weekly closing in such month for the sale of shares of common stock in its continuous public offering. The Company’s board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time upon 30 days’ notice. The first such tender offer commenced in August 2012, and the repurchase occurred in connection with the Company’s October 1, 2012 semi-monthly closing.

The following table sets forth the number of shares of common stock repurchased by the Company under its share repurchase program during the nine months ended September 30, 2013:

Compensation of the Dealer Manager and Investment Adviser

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor is entitled to an annual base management fee of 2.0% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. The Company commenced accruing fees under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement on June 18, 2012, upon commencement of the Company’s operations. Management fees are paid on a quarterly basis in arrears.

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part, which is referred to as the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on adjusted capital, as defined in the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. This “catch-up” feature allows FSIC II Advisor to recoup the fees foregone as a result of the existence of the hurdle rate. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will receive 20.0% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.

The second part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the incentive fee on capital gains, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement). This fee equals 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains, which equal the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. The Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee, which, if earned, is paid annually. The Company accrues the capital gains incentive fee based on net realized and unrealized gains; however, under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the fee payable to FSIC II Advisor is based on realized gains and no such fee is payable with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. See Note 2 for a discussion of the treatment of the TRS with respect to the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee.

The Company reimburses FSIC II Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to the Company’s administration and operations. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FSIC II Advisor’s actual costs incurred in providing such services and (2) the amount that the Company estimates it would be required to pay alternative service providers for comparable services in the same geographic location. FSIC II Advisor is required to allocate the cost of such services to the Company based on objective factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. The Company’s board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as

Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)

 

compared to the estimated cost to the Company of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, the Company’s board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, the Company’s board of directors compares the total amount paid to FSIC II Advisor for such services as a percentage of the Company’s net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.

Franklin Square Holdings, L.P., or Franklin Square Holdings, the Company’s sponsor and an affiliate of FSIC II Advisor, has funded certain of the Company’s offering costs and organization costs. These costs have been recorded by the Company as a contribution to capital. The offering costs were offset against capital in excess of par value on the consolidated financial statements and the organization costs were charged to expense as incurred by the Company. Under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, upon satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement, FSIC II Advisor became entitled to receive 1.5% of gross proceeds raised in the Company’s continuous public offering until all offering costs and organization costs funded by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliates (including Franklin Square Holdings) had been recovered. On June 18, 2012, the Company satisfied the minimum offering requirement. Since inception, Franklin Square Holdings has funded $3,202 in offering costs and organization costs, all of which were reimbursed during the year ended December 31, 2012. The reimbursements were recorded as a reduction of capital. As of September 30, 2013, no amounts remain reimbursable to FSIC II Advisor and its affiliates under this arrangement.

The dealer manager for the Company’s continuous public offering is FS2 Capital Partners, LLC, or FS2, which is one of the Company’s affiliates. Under the dealer manager agreement among the Company, FSIC II Advisor and FS2, FS2 is entitled to receive sales commissions and dealer manager fees in connection with the sale of shares of common stock in the Company’s continuous public offering, all or a portion of which may be re-allowed to selected broker-dealers.

The following table describes the fees and expenses accrued under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement and the dealer manager agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, $22 in base management fees were applied to offset the liability of Franklin Square Holdings under the expense reimbursement agreement (see “—Expense Reimbursement”). Of the $11,067 in base management fees accrued and payable as of September 30, 2013, it is intended that the entire amount will be paid to FSIC II Advisor.

 

(2)

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company accrued capital gains incentive fees of $2,062 and $1,080, respectively, based on the performance of its portfolio, of which $2,062 and $885, respectively, was based on unrealized gains and $0 and $195, respectively, was based on realized gains. No such fees are actually payable by the Company with respect to such unrealized gains unless and until those gains are actually realized. See Note 2 for a discussion of the methodology employed by the Company in calculating the capital gains incentive fee. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had accrued capital gains incentive fees of $3,548 based on the performance of its portfolio, of which $3,070 was

  based on unrealized gains and $478 was based on realized gains. Effective as of March 31, 2013, FSIC II Advisor voluntarily agreed to waive any capital gains incentive fees calculated in accordance with GAAP to the extent such fees exceeded those which would be payable in accordance with the “look through” methodology described more fully in Note 2. This waiver resulted in a reduction of $441 to the amount of capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to realized gains. Accordingly, the Company reduced the amount of accrued capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor by $441 effective as of March 31, 2013. The Company paid FSIC II Advisor $37 in capital gains incentive fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had accrued capital gains incentive fees of $5,132 based on the performance of its portfolio, all of which was based on unrealized gains and none of which is currently payable to FSIC II Advisor.

 

(3) During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, no amounts were paid to FSIC II Advisor in respect of the subordinated incentive fee on income. As of September 30, 2013, a subordinated incentive fee on income of $8,871 was payable to FSIC II Advisor.

The Company paid $1,243 and $37 in administrative services expenses to FSIC II Advisor during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Capital Contribution by FSIC II Advisor and GDFM

In December 2011, Michael C. Forman and David J. Adelman, the principals of FSIC II Advisor, contributed an aggregate of $200 to purchase 22,222 shares of common stock at $9.00 per share, which represents the initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The principals have agreed not to tender these shares of common stock for repurchase as long as FSIC II Advisor remains the Company’s investment adviser.

In June 2012, pursuant to a private placement, Messrs. Forman and Adelman agreed to purchase, through affiliated entities controlled by each of them, 222,222 additional shares of common stock at $9.00 per share. The principals have agreed not to tender these shares of common stock for repurchase as long as FSIC II Advisor remains the Company’s investment adviser. In connection with the same private placement, certain members of the Company’s board of directors and other individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor agreed to purchase 1,247,267 shares of common stock, and certain individuals and entities affiliated with GDFM agreed to purchase 574,444 shares of common stock, in each case at a price of $9.00 per share. In connection with the private placement, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,043,933 shares of common stock for aggregate proceeds of $18,395 upon satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement on June 18, 2012. As of October 29, 2013, the Company has sold an aggregate of 3,131,670 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $28,576 to members of the Company’s board of directors and individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, including shares of common stock sold in the private placement completed in June 2012.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

FSIC II Advisor’s senior management team is comprised of the same personnel as the senior management teams of FB Income Advisor, LLC and FS Investment Advisor, LLC, the investment advisers to Franklin Square Holdings’ other affiliated BDCs, FS Investment Corporation and FS Energy and Power Fund, respectively. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to each of the Company, FS Investment Corporation and FS Energy and Power Fund. While none of FSIC II Advisor, FB Income Advisor, LLC or FS Investment Advisor, LLC is currently making private corporate debt investments for clients other than the Company, FS Investment Corporation or FS Energy and Power Fund, respectively, any, or all, may do so in the future. In the

event that FSIC II Advisor undertakes to provide investment advisory services to other clients in the future, it intends to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with the Company’s investment objectives and strategies, if necessary, so that the Company will not be disadvantaged in relation to any other client of FSIC II Advisor or its management team.

Exemptive Relief

In an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with affiliates of FSIC II Advisor, including FS Investment Corporation and FS Energy and Power Fund and any future BDCs that are advised by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliated investment advisers. Because the Company did not seek exemptive relief to engage in co-investment transactions with GDFM and its affiliates, the Company will be permitted to co-invest with GDFM and its affiliates only in accordance with existing regulatory guidance.

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement, dated as of May 10, 2012 and amended as of May 16, 2013, or, as amended, the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings has agreed to reimburse the Company for expenses in an amount that is sufficient to ensure that no portion of the Company’s distributions to stockholders will be paid from its offering proceeds or borrowings. However, because certain investments the Company may make, including preferred and common equity investments, may generate dividends and other distributions to the Company that are treated for tax purposes as a return of capital, a portion of the Company’s distributions to stockholders may also be deemed to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes to the extent that the Company may use such dividends or other distribution proceeds to fund its distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, Franklin Square Holdings will not reimburse the Company for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital for tax purposes, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement arrangement is not to prevent tax-advantaged distributions to stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse the Company for expenses in an amount equal to the difference between the Company’s cumulative distributions paid to its stockholders in each quarter, less the sum of its net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts are not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) in each quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, the Company has a conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which Franklin Square Holdings funded such amount, the sum of the Company’s net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and the amount of any dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) exceeds the distributions paid by the Company to stockholders; provided, however, that (i) the Company will only reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for expense support payments made by Franklin Square Holdings with respect to any calendar quarter beginning on or after

July 1, 2013 to the extent that the payment of such reimbursement (together with any other reimbursement paid during such fiscal year) does not cause “other operating expenses” (as defined below) (on an annualized basis and net of any expense reimbursement payments received by the Company during such fiscal year) to exceed the lesser of (A) 1.75% of the Company’s average net assets attributable to its shares of common stock for the fiscal year-to-date period after taking such payments into account and (B) the percentage of the Company’s average net assets attributable to its shares of common stock represented by “other operating expenses” during the fiscal year in which such expense support payment from Franklin Square Holdings was made (provided, however, that this clause (B) shall not apply to any reimbursement payment which relates to an expense support payment from Franklin Square Holdings made during the same fiscal year) and (ii) the Company will not reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for expense support payments made by Franklin Square Holdings if the aggregate amount of distributions per share declared by the Company in such calendar quarter is less than the aggregate amount of distributions per share declared by the Company in the calendar quarter in which Franklin Square Holdings made the expense support payment to which such reimbursement relates. “Other operating expenses” means the Company’s total “operating expenses” (as defined below), excluding base management fees, incentive fees, organization and offering expenses, financing fees and costs, interest expense, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. “Operating expenses” means all operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with GAAP for investment companies.

The Company or Franklin Square Holdings may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. Franklin Square Holdings has indicated that it expects to continue such reimbursements until it deems that the Company has achieved economies of scale sufficient to ensure that the Company bears a reasonable level of expenses in relation to its income.

The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by Franklin Square Holdings, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. Upon termination of the expense reimbursement agreement by Franklin Square Holdings, Franklin Square Holdings will be required to fund any amounts accrued thereunder as of the date of termination. Similarly, the Company’s conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings pursuant to the terms of the expense reimbursement agreement shall survive the termination of such agreement by either party.

Franklin Square Holdings is controlled by the Company’s chairman, president and chief executive officer, Michael C. Forman, and its vice-chairman, David J. Adelman. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement agreement will remain in effect or that Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse any portion of the Company’s expenses in future quarters.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company accrued $2,482 for reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings under this arrangement, of which $847 was funded by Franklin Square Holdings during such period. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had $1,635 of reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. In connection with FSIC II Advisor’s voluntary agreement to waive $441 of accrued but unpaid capital gains incentive fees, a corresponding reduction was made to the amount of accrued expense reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, this balance was offset against expense recoupment payable to sponsor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company accrued an expense recoupment payable to sponsor of $2,041, which the Company offset against the reimbursements due on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and made expense recoupment payments of $847 to Franklin Square Holdings. As of September 30, 2013, no further amounts remain subject to repayment by the Company to Franklin Square Holdings in the future.

FS Benefit Trust

On May 30, 2013, FS Benefit Trust, or FS Trust, was formed as a Delaware statutory trust for the purpose of awarding equity incentive compensation to employees of Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates. In connection with the Company’s semi-monthly closing occurring on June 17, 2013, FS Trust purchased approximately $34 of the Company’s shares of common stock at a purchase price equal to 90% of the offering price in effect on such date, or $9.45 per share.

   $ 0.1837       $ 30,873   

Prior to September 2013, the Company authorized and declared ordinary cash distributions on a semi-monthly basis and paid such distributions on a monthly basis. In connection with the Company’s transition from semi-monthly closings to weekly closings for the sale of shares of common stock in its continuous public offering, beginning in September 2013, the Company authorizes and declares ordinary cash distributions on a weekly basis, while continuing to pay such distributions on a monthly basis. On September 10, 2013, the Company’s board of directors declared regular weekly cash distributions for September 2013 through December 2013. The regular weekly cash distributions, each in the amount of $0.0145 per share, have been or will be paid monthly to stockholders of record as of weekly record dates previously determined by the Company’s board of directors. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors.

The Company has adopted an “opt in” distribution reinvestment plan for its stockholders. As a result, if the Company makes a cash distribution, its stockholders will receive distributions in cash unless they specifically “opt in” to the distribution reinvestment plan so as to have their cash distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock. However, certain state authorities or regulators may impose restrictions from time to time that may prevent or limit a stockholder’s ability to participate in the distribution reinvestment plan.

The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds available to it, including offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense reimbursements from Franklin Square Holdings. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions.

Note 5. Distributions (continued)

 

The Company expects that for a period of time following commencement of its continuous public offering, which time period may be significant, substantial portions of the Company’s distributions may be funded through the reimbursement of certain expenses by Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates, including through the waiver of certain investment advisory fees by FSIC II Advisor, that are subject to repayment by the Company within three years. The purpose of this arrangement is to ensure that no portion of the Company’s distributions to stockholders will be paid from offering proceeds or borrowings. Any such distributions funded through expense reimbursements or waivers of advisory fees are not based on the Company’s investment performance and can only be sustained if the Company achieves positive investment performance in future periods and/or Franklin Square Holdings continues to make such reimbursements or waivers of such fees. The Company’s future repayments of amounts reimbursed or waived by Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates will reduce the distributions that stockholders would otherwise receive in the future. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the performance necessary to sustain its distributions or that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all. Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates have no obligation to waive advisory fees or otherwise reimburse expenses in future periods. No portion of the distributions paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was funded through the reimbursement of operating expenses by Franklin Square Holdings.

The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions on a tax basis that the Company has paid on its common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

(1) During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 92% of the Company’s gross investment income was attributable to cash interest earned and 8% was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount and paid-in-kind, or PIK, interest. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 90% of the Company’s gross investment income was attributable to cash interest earned and 10% was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount.

The Company’s net investment income on a tax basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $69,384 and $1,275, respectively. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $13,200 and $273, respectively, of undistributed net investment income on a tax basis. The Company’s undistributed net investment income on a tax basis as of December 31, 2012 has been adjusted following the filing of the Company’s 2012 tax return in September 2013. The adjustment was due primarily to tax-basis income received by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2012 on account of certain collateralized

securities and interests in partnerships held in the Company’s portfolio exceeding GAAP-basis income with respect to such investments for the same period. The tax notices for such collateralized securities and interests in partnerships were received by the Company subsequent to the filing of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The difference between the Company’s GAAP-basis net investment income and its tax-basis net investment income is due to the tax-basis deferral and amortization of organization costs incurred prior to the commencement of the Company’s operations, the reversal of the required accrual for GAAP purposes of incentive fees on unrealized gains even though no such incentive fees on unrealized gains are payable by the Company, the inclusion of a portion of the periodic net settlement payments due on the total return swap in tax-basis net investment income and the accretion of discount on the total return swap.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation between GAAP-basis net investment income and tax-basis net investment income during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of the Company’s distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders are reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

The Company does not “control” and is not an “affiliate” of any of its portfolio companies, each as defined in the 1940 Act. In general, under the 1940 Act, the Company would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if it owned 25% or more of its voting securities and would be an “affiliate” of a portfolio company if it owned 5% or more of its voting securities.

The Company’s investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit or revolving credit facilities, which require the Company to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had five senior secured loan investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of $72,515 and one equity/other investment with an unfunded commitment of $6,157.

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under existing accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. This accounting guidance emphasizes that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy as defined by current accounting guidance:

Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

 

Level 2: Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s investments were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy:

The Company’s investments as of September 30, 2013 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, the Company valued its investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services. Eleven senior secured loan investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features, anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of the debt. Except as described below, all of the Company’s equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. Two senior secured loan investments, one senior secured bond investment and one equity/other investment, all of which were newly-issued and purchased near September 30, 2013, were valued at cost, as the Company’s board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value. Also, one equity investment which is traded on an active public market was valued at its closing price as of September 30, 2013.

The Company’s investments as of December 31, 2012 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors.

other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. The Company valued the TRS in accordance with the agreements between Del River and Citibank which collectively established the TRS and are collectively referred to herein as the TRS Agreement. Pursuant to the TRS Agreement, the value of the TRS was based on the increase or decrease in the value of the loans underlying the TRS, together with accrued interest income, interest expense and certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The loans underlying the TRS were valued by Citibank. Citibank based its valuation on the indicative bid prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. These valuations were sent to the Company for review and testing. The Company’s valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the value of the TRS, as well as the value of the loans underlying the TRS, on a quarterly basis as part of their quarterly determination of net asset value. To the extent the Company’s valuation committee or board of directors had any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the loans underlying the TRS, such valuation was discussed or challenged pursuant to the terms of the TRS. For additional information on the Company’s TRS, see Note 8.

The Company periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices it receives from the third-party pricing services against the actual prices at which the Company purchases and sells its investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of the Company’s management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Company believes that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. However, because of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), the Company believes that these valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company may also use other methods to determine fair value for securities for which it cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices through third-party pricing services or independent dealers, including the use of an independent valuation firm. The Company periodically benchmarks the valuations provided by the independent valuation firm against the actual prices at which it purchases and sells its investments. The Company’s valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Company’s valuation process.

The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of assets valued by an independent valuation firm as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:

(1) Except as otherwise described in this footnote, the remaining Level 3 assets were valued by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services. Two senior secured loan investments ($201,190), one senior secured bond investment ($40,000) and one equity/other investment ($6,743), all of which were newly-issued and purchased near September 30, 2013, were valued at cost, as the Company’s board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value. As of September 30, 2013, $48,825 of the senior secured loans—first lien investments valued by the independent valuation firm consisted of unfunded loan commitments.

 

(2) For investments utilizing a market comparables valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the market yield, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, and a significant increase (decrease) in any of the valuation multiples, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing an option valuation model valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the volatility, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Note 8. Financing Arrangements (continued)

 

JPM Financing

On April 23, 2013, through its two wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiaries, Lehigh River and Cobbs Creek, the Company entered into an amendment, or the April 2013 amendment, to its conventional debt financing arrangement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch, or JPM, which was originally entered into on October 26, 2012 and first amended on February 6, 2013. The April 2013 amendment, among other things: (i) increased the amount of debt financing available under the arrangement from $300,000 to $550,000; and (ii) extended the final repurchase date under the financing arrangement from February 20, 2017 to May 20, 2017. The Company elected to structure the financing in the manner described more fully below in order to, among other things, obtain such financing at a lower cost than would be available through alternate arrangements.

Pursuant to the financing arrangement, the aggregate market value of assets expected to be held by Lehigh River when the financing arrangement is fully-ramped is approximately $1,174,000. The assets held by Lehigh River secure the obligations of Lehigh River under certain Class A Floating Rate Notes, or the Class A Notes, to be issued from time to time by Lehigh River to Cobbs Creek pursuant to the Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of February 6, 2013 and as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated April 23, 2013, with Citibank, as trustee, or the Amended and Restated Indenture. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Indenture, the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes that may be issued by Lehigh River from time to time is $660,000. All principal and interest on the Class A Notes will be due and payable on the stated maturity date of May 20, 2024. Cobbs Creek will purchase the Class A Notes to be issued by Lehigh River from time to time at a purchase price equal to their par value.

Cobbs Creek, in turn, has entered into an amended repurchase transaction with JPM pursuant to the terms of an amended and restated global master repurchase agreement and the related annex and amended and restated confirmation thereto, each dated as of April 23, 2013, or, collectively, the JPM Facility. Pursuant to the JPM Facility, JPM has agreed to purchase from time to time Class A Notes held by Cobbs Creek for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately 83.33% of the principal amount of Class A Notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of Class A Notes that may be purchased under the JPM Facility is $660,000. Accordingly, the maximum amount payable at any time to Cobbs Creek under the JPM Facility is $550,000.

Under the JPM Facility, Cobbs Creek will, on a quarterly basis, repurchase the Class A Notes sold to JPM under the JPM Facility and subsequently resell such Class A Notes to JPM. The final repurchase transaction must occur no later than May 20, 2017. The repurchase price paid by Cobbs Creek to JPM for each repurchase of the Class A Notes will be equal to the purchase price paid by JPM for such Class A Notes, plus interest thereon accrued at a fixed rate of 3.25% per annum. Commencing May 20, 2015, Cobbs Creek is permitted to reduce (based on certain thresholds) the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes subject to the JPM Facility. Such reductions, and any other reductions of the principal amount of Class A Notes, including upon an event of default, will be subject to breakage fees in an amount equal to the present value of 1.25% per annum over the remaining term of the JPM Facility applied to the amount of such reduction.

Pursuant to the financing arrangement, the aggregate market value of assets expected to be held by Cobbs Creek when the financing arrangement is fully-ramped is $330,000. The assets held by Cobbs Creek secure the obligations of Cobbs Creek under the JPM Facility.

Note 8. Financing Arrangements (continued)

 

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Class A Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $660,000 and $141,000, respectively, had been purchased by Cobbs Creek from Lehigh River and subsequently sold to JPM under the JPM Facility for aggregate proceeds of $550,000 and $117,500, respectively. The Company funded each purchase of Class A Notes by Cobbs Creek through a capital contribution to Cobbs Creek. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Cobbs Creek’s liability under the JPM Facility was $550,000 and $117,500, respectively, plus $1,355 and $274, respectively, of accrued interest expense. The Class A Notes issued by Lehigh River and purchased by Cobbs Creek eliminate in consolidation on the Company’s financial statements.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of assets held by Lehigh River was $1,223,564 and $306,851, respectively, which included assets purchased by Lehigh River with proceeds from the issuance of Class A Notes. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of assets held by Cobbs Creek was $336,641 and $94,247, respectively.

As of September 30, 2013, the Company had incurred costs of $159 in connection with obtaining and amending the JPM Facility, which the Company has recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortizes to interest expense over the life of the JPM Facility. As of September 30, 2013, $123 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the JPM Facility was 3.25% as of September 30, 2013. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced in May 2013. The Company recorded interest expense of $2,613 and $5,334 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, of which $9 and $29, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. The Company paid $4,224 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The average borrowings under the JPM Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $215,304, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.25%.

Cooper River Credit Facility

On March 27, 2013, Cooper River entered into a revolving credit facility, or the credit facility, with Citibank, as administrative agent, and the financial institutions and other lenders from time to time party thereto. The credit facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $200,000 on a committed basis.

The Company may contribute cash or debt securities to Cooper River from time to time, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the credit facility, and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through its ownership of Cooper River or will receive fair market value for any debt securities sold to Cooper River. Cooper River may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Cooper River has appointed the Company to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Cooper River’s obligations to the lenders under the credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Cooper River, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Cooper River under the credit facility are non-recourse to the Company and the Company’s exposure under the credit facility is limited to the value of the Company’s investment in Cooper River.

Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest at a rate equal to the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus 1.75% per annum during the first two years of the facility and three-month LIBOR

plus 2.00% per annum thereafter. Borrowings under the credit facility are subject to compliance with an equity coverage ratio with respect to the current value of Cooper River’s portfolio and a loan compliance test with respect to the initial acquisition of each debt security in Cooper River’s portfolio.

Beginning on June 24, 2013, Cooper River became subject to a non-usage fee to the extent the aggregate principal amount available under the credit facility is not borrowed. Outstanding borrowings under the credit facility will be amortized beginning on June 27, 2015. Any amounts borrowed under the credit facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on March 27, 2016.

In connection with the closing of the credit facility, the Company contributed approximately $52,472 in cash to Cooper River. Cooper River used approximately $14,194 of borrowings under the credit facility, together with cash contributed by the Company, to fund its acquisition of approximately $65,108 in debt securities held by an affiliate of Citibank and to pay certain fees and expenses in connection with the establishment of the credit facility.

As of September 30, 2013, $170,494 was outstanding under the credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the credit facility approximates its fair value. The Company incurred costs of $1,557 in connection with obtaining the credit facility, which the Company has recorded as deferred financing costs on its consolidated balance sheets and amortizes to interest expense over the life of the credit facility. As of September 30, 2013, $1,290 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the credit facility was 2.14% per annum as of September 30, 2013. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced March 27, 2013. The Company recorded interest expense of $950 and $1,330 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, of which $132 and $267, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and $73 and $81, respectively, related to fees on the unused portion of the credit facility. The Company paid $345 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The average borrowings under the credit facility for the period from March 27, 2013 to September 30, 2013 were $92,996, with a weighted average interest rate (including the effect of non-usage fees) of 2.19%.

Under the credit facility, Cooper River has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions, the credit facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within five business days of when due; (b) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Cooper River or the Company; (c) the failure of Cooper River to be beneficially owned and controlled by the Company; (d) the resignation or removal of the Company as Cooper River’s investment manager; and (e) GDFM (or any affiliate thereof or any replacement thereof approved in writing by Citibank) no longer serving as the investment sub-adviser to the Company. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Citibank may declare the outstanding principal and interest and all other amounts owing under the credit facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Cooper River must pay interest at a default rate.

Total Return Swap

On June 13, 2013, the Company’s wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiary, Del River, and Citibank entered into a Termination Acknowledgement (TRS), or the termination acknowledgment, pursuant to which Del River and Citibank agreed to immediately terminate the TRS Agreement and all transactions thereunder.

Note 8. Financing Arrangements (continued)

 

The TRS was for a portfolio of senior secured floating rate loans and other debt securities with a maximum notional amount of $425,000. Del River received from Citibank all interest and fees payable in respect of the assets underlying the TRS. Del River paid to Citibank interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum on the full notional amount of the assets subject to the TRS. In addition, upon the termination or repayment of any asset subject to the TRS, Del River either received from Citibank the appreciation in the value of such asset or paid to Citibank any depreciation in the value of such asset.

Del River was permitted to terminate the TRS upon prior written notice to Citibank and no termination fee was payable in connection with the termination of the TRS.

Upon the termination of the TRS, the Company recognized $5,437 of gains, $1,836 of which represented periodic net settlement payments due on the TRS.

The issuance of common stock at an offering price, net of sales commissions and dealer manager fees, that is greater than the net asset value per share results in an increase in net asset value per share.

 

(4) The per share impact of the Company’s repurchases of common stock is a reduction to net asset value of less than $0.01 per share during the period.

 

(5) The total return for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of September 30, 2013, adding the cash distributions per share which were declared during the period and dividing the total by the net asset value per share on December 31, 2012. The 2012 total return was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of December 31, 2012, adding the cash distributions per share which were declared during the calendar year and dividing the total by the net asset value per share at the beginning of the period. The total return does not consider the effect of the sales load from the sale of the Company’s common stock. The total return includes the effect of the issuance of shares at a net offering price that is greater than net asset value per share, which causes an increase in net asset value per share. The historical calculation of total return in the table should not be considered a representation of the Company’s future total return, which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a number of factors, including the Company’s ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet its investment criteria, the interest rate payable on the debt securities the Company acquires, the level of the Company’s expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which the Company encounters competition in its markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods. The total return as calculated above represents the total return on the Company’s investment portfolio during such period and is calculated in accordance with GAAP. These return figures do not represent an actual return to stockholders.

 

(6) Weighted average net assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the period from June 18, 2012 (commencement of operations) through December 31, 2012 are used for this calculation. Ratios are not annualized. The following is a schedule of supplemental ratios for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012:

Overview

We were incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on July 13, 2011 and formally commenced operations on June 18, 2012 upon raising gross proceeds in excess of $2,500 from sales of shares of our common stock in our continuous public offering to persons who were not affiliated with us or FSIC II Advisor. We are an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and has elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. Prior to satisfying the minimum offering requirement, we had no operations except for matters relating to our organization and registration as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company.

Our investment activities are managed by FSIC II Advisor and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent. Under our investment advisory and administrative services agreement, we have agreed to pay FSIC II Advisor an annual base management fee based on our gross assets as well as incentive fees based on our performance. FSIC II Advisor has engaged GDFM to act as our investment sub-adviser. GDFM assists FSIC II Advisor in identifying investment opportunities and makes investment recommendations for approval by FSIC II Advisor according to guidelines set by FSIC II Advisor.

Our investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We have identified and intend to focus on the following six investment categories, which we believe will allow us to generate an attractive total return with an acceptable level of risk.

Originated/Proprietary Transactions: We intend to leverage our relationship with GDFM and its global sourcing and origination platform to identify proprietary investment opportunities. We define proprietary investments as any investment originated or structured specifically for us or made by us that was not generally available to the broader market. Proprietary investments may include both debt and equity components, although we do not expect to make equity investments independent of having an existing credit relationship. We believe proprietary transactions may offer attractive investment opportunities as they typically offer higher returns than broadly syndicated transactions.

Anchor Orders: In addition to proprietary transactions, we will invest in certain opportunities that are originated and then syndicated by a commercial or investment bank but where we provide a capital commitment significantly above the average syndicate participant. Our decision to provide an anchor order to a syndicated transaction is predicated on a rigorous credit analysis, our familiarity with a particular company, industry or financial sponsor, and the broader investment experiences of FSIC II Advisor and GDFM. In these types of investments, we may receive fees, preferential pricing or other benefits not available to other lenders in return for our significant capital commitment.

Event Driven: We intend to take advantage of dislocations that arise in the markets due to an impending event and where the market’s apparent expectation of value differs substantially from our fundamental analysis. Such events may include a looming debt maturity or default, a merger, spin-off or other corporate reorganization, an adverse regulatory or legal ruling, or a material contract expiration, any of which may significantly improve or

 

44


Table of Contents

impair a company’s financial position. Compared to other investment strategies, event driven investing depends more heavily on our ability to successfully predict the outcome of an individual event rather than on underlying macroeconomic fundamentals. As a result, successful event driven strategies may offer both substantial diversification benefits and the ability to generate performance in uncertain market environments.

Opportunistic: We intend to seek to capitalize on market price inefficiencies by investing in loans, bonds and other securities where the market price of such investment reflects a lower value than deemed warranted by our fundamental analysis. We believe that market price inefficiencies may occur due to, among other things, general dislocations in the markets, a misunderstanding by the market of a particular company or an industry being out of favor with the broader investment community. We seek to allocate capital to these securities that have been misunderstood or mispriced by the market and where we believe there is an opportunity to earn an attractive return on our investment.

Collateralized Securities: Collateralized loan obligations, or CLOs, are a form of securitization where the cash flow from a pooled basket of syndicated loans is used to support distribution payments made to different tranches of securities. While collectively CLOs represent nearly fifty percent of the broadly syndicated loan universe, investing in individual CLO tranches requires a high degree of investor sophistication due to their structural complexity and the illiquid nature of their securities. Our relationship with GSO Capital Partners LP, one of the largest CLO managers in the world, allows us to invest in these securities with confidence and to capitalize on opportunities in the secondary CLO market.

Broadly Syndicated/Other: Although our primary focus is to invest in proprietary transactions, in certain circumstances we will also invest in the broadly syndicated loan and high yield markets. Broadly syndicated loans and bonds are generally more liquid than our proprietary investments and provide a complement to our more illiquid proprietary strategies. In addition, and because we typically receive more attractive financing terms on these positions than we do on our less liquid assets, we are able to leverage the broadly syndicated portion of our portfolio in such a way that maximizes the levered return potential of our portfolio.

Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase interests in loans through secondary market transactions in the “over-the-counter” market for institutional loans or directly from our target companies. In connection with our debt investments, we may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. We may also purchase minority interests in the form of common or preferred equity in our target companies, either in conjunction with one of our debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds and other debt securities.

The senior secured and second lien secured loans in which we invest generally have stated terms of three to seven years and any subordinated debt investments that we make generally will have stated terms of up to ten years, but the expected average life of such securities is generally between three and seven years. However, there is no limit on the maturity or duration of any security in our portfolio. The loans in which we invest are often rated by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization and generally will carry a rating below investment grade (rated lower than “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., or Moody’s, or lower than “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s Corporation). However, we also invest in non-rated debt securities.

Revenues

The principal measure of our financial performance is net increase in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income, net realized gain on investments, net realized gain on total return swap, net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments, net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on total return swap and net unrealized gain and loss on foreign currency. Net investment income is the difference

 

45


Table of Contents

between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating expenses. Net realized gain on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net realized gain on total return swap is the net monthly settlement payments received on the TRS. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on total return swap is the net change in the fair value of the TRS. Net unrealized gain and loss on foreign currency is the net change in the value of receivables or accruals due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. In future quarters, we do not expect our revenues to include net realized gain on total return swap or net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on total return swap as a result of the termination of our TRS on June 13, 2013. We may, however, elect to utilize a total return swap in the future.

We principally generate revenues in the form of interest income on the debt investments we hold. We may also generate revenues in the form of dividends and other distributions on the equity or other securities we may hold. In addition, we may generate revenues in the form of commitment, closing, origination, structuring or diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees, prepayment fees and performance-based fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments will be recognized as earned.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of advisory fees and other expenses under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, interest expense from financing facilities and other expenses necessary for our operations. Our investment advisory fees compensate FSIC II Advisor for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, executing, monitoring and servicing our investments. FSIC II Advisor is responsible for compensating our investment sub-adviser.

We reimburse FSIC II Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations. Such services include the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations and other administrative services. FSIC II Advisor also performs, or oversees the performance of, our corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records which we are required to maintain and preparing reports for our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, FSIC II Advisor assists us in calculating our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. See “—Related Party Transactions” for additional information regarding the reimbursements payable to FSIC II Advisor for administrative services and the methodology for determining the amount of any such reimbursements. We bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions. For additional information regarding these expenses, please see our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In addition, we have contracted with State Street Bank and Trust Company to provide various accounting and administrative services, including, but not limited to, preparing preliminary financial information for review by FSIC II Advisor, preparing and monitoring expense budgets, maintaining accounting and corporate books and records, processing trade information provided by us and performing testing with respect to RIC compliance.

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings has agreed to reimburse us for expenses in an amount that is sufficient to ensure that no portion of our distributions to stockholders will be paid from our offering proceeds or borrowings. However, because certain investments we may make, including preferred and common equity investments, may generate dividends and other distributions to us that are treated for tax purposes as a return of capital, a portion of our distributions to stockholders may also be deemed to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes to the extent that we may use such dividends or other distribution

 

46


Table of Contents

proceeds to fund our distributions to stockholders. Under those circumstances, Franklin Square Holdings will not reimburse us for the portion of such distributions to stockholders that represent a return of capital for tax purposes, as the purpose of the expense reimbursement arrangement is not to prevent tax-advantaged distributions to stockholders.

Under the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse us for expenses in an amount equal to the difference between our cumulative distributions paid to our stockholders in each quarter, less the sum of our net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts are not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) in each quarter.

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, we have a conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for any amounts funded by Franklin Square Holdings under such agreement if (and only to the extent that), during any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which Franklin Square Holdings funded such amount, the sum of our net investment income for tax purposes, net capital gains and the amount of any dividends and other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies (to the extent not included in net investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) exceeds the distributions paid by us to stockholders; provided, however, that (i) we will only reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for expense support payments made by Franklin Square Holdings with respect to any calendar quarter beginning on or after July 1, 2013 to the extent that the payment of such reimbursement (together with any other reimbursement paid during such fiscal year) does not cause “other operating expenses” (as defined below) (on an annualized basis and net of any expense reimbursement payments received by us during such fiscal year) to exceed the lesser of (A) 1.75% of our average net assets attributable to shares of our common stock for the fiscal year-to-date period after taking such payments into account and (B) the percentage of our average net assets attributable to shares of our common stock represented by “other operating expenses” during the fiscal year in which such expense support payment from Franklin Square Holdings was made (provided, however, that this clause (B) shall not apply to any reimbursement payment which relates to an expense support payment from Franklin Square Holdings made during the same fiscal year) and (ii) we will not reimburse Franklin Square Holdings for expense support payments made by Franklin Square Holdings if the aggregate amount of distributions per share declared by us in such calendar quarter is less than the aggregate amount of distributions per share declared by us in the calendar quarter in which Franklin Square Holdings made the expense support payment to which such reimbursement relates. “Other operating expenses” means our total “operating expenses” (as defined below), excluding base management fees, incentive fees, organization and offering expenses, financing fees and costs, interest expense, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. “Operating expenses” means all operating costs and expenses incurred, as determined in accordance with GAAP for investment companies.

We or Franklin Square Holdings may terminate the expense reimbursement agreement at any time. Franklin Square Holdings has indicated that it expects to continue such reimbursements until it deems that we have achieved economies of scale sufficient to ensure that we bear a reasonable level of expenses in relation to our income.

The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by Franklin Square Holdings, if any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. Upon termination of the expense reimbursement agreement by Franklin Square Holdings, Franklin Square Holdings will be required to fund any amounts accrued thereunder as of the date of termination. Similarly, our conditional obligation to reimburse Franklin Square Holdings pursuant to the terms of the expense reimbursement agreement shall survive the termination of such agreement by either party.

Franklin Square Holdings is controlled by our chairman, president and chief executive officer, Michael C. Forman, and our vice-chairman, David J. Adelman. There can be no assurance that the expense reimbursement agreement will remain in effect or that Franklin Square Holdings will reimburse any portion of our expenses in future quarters.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we accrued $2,482 for reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings under this arrangement, of which $847 was funded by Franklin Square Holdings during such period. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1,635 of reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. In connection with FSIC II Advisor’s voluntary agreement to waive $441 of accrued but unpaid capital gains incentive fees, a corresponding reduction was made to the amount of accrued expense reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, this balance was offset against expense recoupment payable to sponsor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued an expense recoupment payable to sponsor of $2,041, which we offset against the reimbursements due on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and we made expense recoupment payments of $847 to Franklin Square Holdings. As of September 30, 2013, no further amounts remain subject to repayment by us to Franklin Square Holdings in the future.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we made investments in portfolio companies totaling $2,051,561. During the same period, we sold investments for proceeds of $208,294 and received principal repayments of $186,387. As of September 30, 2013, our investment portfolio, with a total fair value of $2,159,726, consisted of interests in 165 portfolio companies (48% in first lien senior secured loans, 27% in

Table of Contents

second lien senior secured loans, 9% in senior secured bonds, 10% in subordinated debt, 5% in collateralized securities and 1% in equity/other). The portfolio companies that comprised our portfolio as of such date had an average annual EBITDA of approximately $247.7 million. As of September 30, 2013, the investments in our portfolio were purchased at a weighted average price of 97.7% of par or stated value, as applicable, the weighted average credit rating of the investments in our portfolio that were rated (constituting approximately 51.6% of our portfolio based on the fair value of our investments) was B3 based upon the Moody’s scale and our estimated gross annual portfolio yield, prior to leverage, was 10.2% based upon the amortized cost of our investments. Our gross annual portfolio yield, prior to leverage, represents the expected yield to be generated by us on our investment portfolio based on the composition of our portfolio as of September 30, 2013. The portfolio yield does not represent an actual investment return to stockholders.

Based on our regular weekly cash distribution rate of $0.0145 per share as of September 30, 2013 and our public offering price of $10.50 per share as of such date, the annualized distribution rate to stockholders as of September 30, 2013 was 7.18%. The distribution rate to stockholders does not represent an actual investment return to stockholders and may include income, realized capital gains and a return of investors’ capital. Our gross annual portfolio yield and distribution rate to stockholders are subject to change and in the future may be greater or less than the rates set forth above. See the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and our other periodic reports filed with the SEC for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

During the period from June 18, 2012 through December 31, 2012, we made investments in portfolio companies totaling $681,503. During the same period, we sold investments for proceeds of $182,908 and received principal repayments of $21,340. As of December 31, 2012, our investment portfolio, with a total fair value of $488,642, consisted of interests in 88 portfolio companies (33% in first lien senior secured loans, 30% in second lien senior secured loans, 10% in senior secured bonds, 22% in subordinated debt, 4% in collateralized securities and 1% in equity/other). The portfolio companies that comprised our portfolio as of such date had an average annual EBITDA of approximately $303.0 million. As of December 31, 2012, the investments in our portfolio were purchased at a weighted average price of 95.9% of par or stated value, as applicable, the weighted average credit rating of the investments in our portfolio that were rated (constituting approximately 78.4% of our portfolio based on the fair value of our investments) was B3 based upon the Moody’s scale and our estimated gross annual portfolio yield, prior to leverage, was 10.3% based upon the amortized cost of our investments. Our gross annual portfolio yield, prior to leverage, represents the expected yield to be generated by us on our investment portfolio based on the composition of our portfolio as of December 31, 2012. The portfolio yield does not represent an actual investment return to stockholders.

Based on our regular semi-monthly cash distribution rate of $0.030813 per share as of December 31, 2012 and our public offering price of $10.20 per share as of such date, the annualized distribution rate to stockholders as of December 31, 2012 was 7.25%. The distribution rate to stockholders does not represent an actual investment return to stockholders and may include income, realized capital gains and a return of investors’ capital. Our gross annual portfolio yield and distribution rate to stockholders are subject to change and in the future may be greater or less than the rates set forth above. See the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and our other periodic reports filed with the SEC for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

We do not “control” and are not an “affiliate” of any of our portfolio companies, each as defined in the 1940 Act. In general, under the 1940 Act, we would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if we owned 25% or more of its voting securities and would be an “affiliate” of a portfolio company if we owned 5% or more of its voting securities.

Our investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit or revolving credit facilities, which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of September 30, 2013, we had five senior secured loan investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of $72,515 and one equity/other investment with an unfunded commitment of $6,157. As of December 31, 2012, we had one senior secured loan investment with an unfunded commitment of $10,204. We maintain sufficient cash on hand to fund such unfunded commitments should the need arise.

Portfolio Asset Quality

In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, FSIC II Advisor uses an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. FSIC II Advisor uses an investment rating scale of 1 to 5. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:

 

Investment

Rating

  

Summary Description

1

   Investment exceeding expectations and/or capital gain expected.

2

   Performing investment generally executing in accordance with the portfolio company’s business plan—full return of principal and interest expected.

3

   Performing investment requiring closer monitoring.

4

   Underperforming investment—some loss of interest or dividend possible, but still expecting a positive return on investment.

5

   Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.

The following table shows the distribution of our investments on the 1 to 5 investment rating scale at fair value as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

The amount of the portfolio in each grading category may vary substantially from period to period resulting primarily from changes in the composition of the portfolio as a result of new investment, repayment and exit activities. In addition, changes in the grade of investments may be made to reflect our expectation of performance and changes in investment values.

Results of Operations

We commenced operations on June 18, 2012, when we raised in excess of $2,500 from persons who were not affiliated with us or FSIC II Advisor. Prior to satisfying the minimum offering requirement, we had no operations except for matters relating to our organization and registration as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. As a result, a comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2013 to the three months ended September 30, 2012 has been included, but no comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to the nine months ended September 30, 2012 has been included. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we incurred organization costs of $205 and offering costs of $2,382, which were funded by Franklin Square Holdings and recorded as a contribution to capital.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Revenues

We generated investment income of $61,272 and $1,824 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, in the form of interest and fees earned on senior secured loans, senior secured bonds,

Table of Contents

subordinated debt and collateralized securities in our portfolio and dividends and other distributions earned on equity/other investments. Such revenues represent $56,136 and $1,638 of cash income earned as well as $5,136 and $186 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Cash flows related to such non-cash revenues may not occur for a number of reporting periods or years after such revenues are recognized. The level of income we receive is directly related to the balance of income-producing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. We expect the dollar amount of interest and any dividend income that we earn to increase as the size of our investment portfolio increases.

Expenses

Our total operating expenses were $26,827 and $2,323 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our operating expenses include base management fees attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $11,067 and $826 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our operating expenses also include administrative services expenses attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $777 and $100 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

FSIC II Advisor is eligible to receive incentive fees based on performance. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued subordinated income incentive fees of $8,871 based on the performance of our portfolio. We did not accrue any subordinated income incentive fees during the three months ended September 30, 2012. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $1,042 and $1,015, respectively, based on the performance of our portfolio.

We recorded interest expense of $3,563 and $5 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, relating to the JPM Facility, our revolving credit facility and our TRS. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, fees and expenses incurred with our fund administrator, which provides various accounting and administrative services to us, totaled $175 and $7, respectively, and fees and expenses incurred with our stock transfer agent totaled $561 and $148, respectively. Fees for our board of directors were $177 and $68 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Our other general and administrative expenses totaled $594 and $154 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and consisted of the following:

We generally expect our operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to decrease as a percentage of our average net assets because of the anticipated growth in the size of our asset base. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the ratio of our operating expenses to our average net assets was 1.74% and 2.33%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the ratio of our net operating expenses to our average net assets, which includes $712 of expense reimbursements from Franklin Square Holdings, was 1.61%. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the ratio of our net operating expenses to average net assets included $3,563 and $5, respectively, related to interest expense and $9,913 and $1,015,

respectively, related to accruals for incentive fees. Without such expenses, our ratio of net operating expenses to average net assets would have been 0.86% and 0.59% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our operating expenses in relation to our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.

Expense Reimbursement

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we accrued $712 for reimbursements that Franklin Square Holdings had agreed to pay, which were subsequently offset against management fees payable by us to FSIC II Advisor. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we did not accrue any amounts for reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. Under the expense reimbursement agreement, amounts reimbursed to us by Franklin Square Holdings may become subject to repayment by us in the future. As of September 30, 2013, no further amounts remain subject to repayment by us to Franklin Square Holdings in the future. For a discussion of the expense reimbursement agreement, see “—Overview—Expense Reimbursement.”

Net Investment Income

Our net investment income (loss) totaled $34,445 ($0.21 per share) and $213 ($0.02 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

We sold investments and received principal repayments of $88,193 and $110,579, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2013, from which we realized a net gain of $1,114. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we realized a net loss of $44 from settlements on foreign currency. We sold investments and received principal repayments of $66,257 and $3,614, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2012, from which we realized net gains of $1,147. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we earned $135 from periodic net settlement payments on our TRS, which are reflected as realized gains.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments and Total Return Swap and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Foreign Currency

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $4,090 and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency was $(20). For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $2,020 and the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our TRS was $1,773. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments and TRS during each of the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, was primarily driven by tightening of credit spreads during the respective quarters.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $39,585 ($0.24 per share) and $5,288 ($0.47 per share), respectively.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013

securities in our portfolio and dividends and other distributions earned on equity/other investments. Such revenues represent $97,872 of cash income earned as well as $8,599 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest. Cash flows related to such non-cash revenues may not occur for a number of reporting periods or years after such revenues are recognized. The level of income we receive is directly related to the balance of income-producing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. We expect the dollar amount of interest and any dividend income that we earn to increase as the size of our investment portfolio increases.

Expenses

Our total operating expenses were $47,367 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Our operating expenses include base management fees attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $23,647 and administrative services expenses attributed to FSIC II Advisor of $1,882 for the period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued subordinated income incentive fees of $8,871 based on the performance of our portfolio. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $2,062 based on the performance of our portfolio, all of which was based on unrealized gains. No such fees are actually payable by us with respect to such unrealized gains unless and until those gains are actually realized. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Capital Gains Incentive Fee.”

We recorded interest expense of $6,674 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 relating to the JPM Facility, our revolving credit facility and our TRS. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, fees and expenses incurred with our fund administrator, which provides various accounting and administrative services to us, totaled $395 and fees and expenses incurred with our stock transfer agent totaled $1,608.

We generally expect our operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to decrease as a percentage of our average net assets because of the anticipated growth in the size of our asset base. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the ratio of our operating expenses to our average net assets was 4.24% and the ratio of our net operating expenses to our average net assets, which includes $2,041 of expense recoupments paid to Franklin Square Holdings, was 4.42%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, our ratio of net operating expenses to average net assets included $6,674 related to interest expense and $10,933 related to accruals for incentive fees. Without such expenses, our ratio of net operating expenses to average net assets would have been 2.85% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our operating expenses in relation to our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.

Expense Reimbursement

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we accrued $2,482 for reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings under the expense reimbursement agreement, of which $847 was funded by Franklin Square Holdings during such period. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1,635 of reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. In connection with FSIC II Advisor’s voluntary agreement to waive $441 of accrued but unpaid capital gains incentive fees, a corresponding reduction was made to the amount of accrued expense reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, this balance was offset against expense recoupment payable to sponsor. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued an expense recoupment payable to sponsor of $2,041, which we offset against the reimbursements due on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we made expense recoupment payments of $847 to Franklin Square Holdings. As of September 30, 2013, no further amounts remain subject to repayment by us to Franklin Square Holdings in the future. For a discussion of the expense reimbursement agreement, see “—Overview—Expense Reimbursement”.

Net Investment Income

Our net investment income totaled $57,063 ($0.48 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

We sold investments and received principal repayments of $208,294 and $186,387, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, from which we realized a net gain of $2,773. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we earned $19,689 from periodic net settlement payments on our TRS and the termination of our TRS, which are reflected as realized gains, and realized a net loss of $144 from settlements on foreign currency.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments and Total Return Swap and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Foreign Currency

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $2,832; the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our TRS was $(5,641); and the net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency was $130. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily driven by a general tightening of credit spreads during the three months ended September 30, 2013. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our TRS during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily driven by the termination of our TRS, which converted unrealized gains as of December 31, 2012 into realized gains.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $76,702 ($0.64 per share).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we also incurred offering costs of $4,600 in connection with the sale of our common stock, which consisted primarily of legal, due diligence and printing fees. The offering costs were offset against capital in excess of par value in our consolidated financial statements. The sales commissions and dealer manager fees related to the sale of our common stock were $135,496 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. These sales commissions and fees include $26,068 retained by the dealer manager, FS2, which is an affiliate of ours.

Since commencing our continuous public offering and through October 29, 2013, we have sold 212,123,966 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $2,176,627. As of October 29, 2013, we had raised total gross proceeds of $2,195,222, including $200 of seed capital contributed by the principals of FSIC II Advisor in December 2011 and $18,395 in proceeds raised from principals of FSIC II Advisor, other individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor, certain members of our board of directors and certain individuals and entities affiliated with GDFM in a private placement completed in June 2012. As of October 29, 2013, we have sold an aggregate of 3,131,670 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $28,576 to members of our board of directors and individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, including shares of common stock sold in the private placement.

We generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of our continuous public offering and from cash flows from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments as well as principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. We are engaged in a continuous public offering of shares of our common stock. We accept subscriptions on a continuous basis and issue shares of common stock at weekly closings. Prior to September 11, 2013, we issued shares of common stock on a semi-monthly basis. Shares are issued at prices that, after deducting selling commissions and dealer manager fees, must be above our net asset value per share.

Prior to investing in securities of portfolio companies, we invest the net proceeds from our continuous public offering and from sales and paydowns of existing investments primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment, consistent with our BDC election and our election to be taxed as a RIC.

To provide our stockholders with limited liquidity, we conduct quarterly tender offers pursuant to our share repurchase program. The first such tender offer commenced in August 2012, and the repurchase occurred in connection with our October 1, 2012 semi-monthly closing.

The following table provides information concerning our repurchases of shares of common stock pursuant to our share repurchase program during the nine months ended September 30, 2013:

JPM Financing

On April 23, 2013, through our two wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiaries, Lehigh River and Cobbs Creek, we entered into the April 2013 amendment to our conventional debt financing arrangement with JPM, which was originally entered into on October 26, 2012 and first amended on February 6, 2013. The April 2013 amendment, among other things: (i) increased the amount of debt financing available under the arrangement from $300,000 to $550,000; and (ii) extended the final repurchase date under the financing arrangement from February 20, 2017 to May 20, 2017. We elected to structure the financing in the manner described more fully below in order to, among other things, obtain such financing at a lower cost than would be available through alternate arrangements.

Pursuant to the financing arrangement, the aggregate market value of assets expected to be held by Lehigh River when the financing arrangement is fully-ramped is approximately $1,174,000. The assets held by Lehigh River secure the obligations of Lehigh River under the Class A Notes to be issued from time to time by Lehigh River to Cobbs Creek pursuant to the Amended and Restated Indenture. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Indenture, the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes that may be issued by Lehigh River from time to time is $660,000. All principal and interest on the Class A Notes will be due and payable on the stated maturity date of May 20, 2024. Cobbs Creek will purchase the Class A Notes to be issued by Lehigh River from time to time at a purchase price equal to their par value.

Cobbs Creek, in turn, has entered into the JPM Facility. Pursuant to the JPM Facility, JPM has agreed to purchase from time to time Class A Notes held by Cobbs Creek for an aggregate purchase price equal to approximately 83.33% of the principal amount of Class A Notes purchased. Subject to certain conditions, the maximum principal amount of Class A Notes that may be purchased under the JPM Facility is $660,000. Accordingly, the maximum amount payable at any time to Cobbs Creek under the JPM Facility is $550,000.

Under the JPM Facility, Cobbs Creek will, on a quarterly basis, repurchase the Class A Notes sold to JPM under the JPM Facility and subsequently resell such Class A Notes to JPM. The final repurchase transaction must occur no later than May 20, 2017. The repurchase price paid by Cobbs Creek to JPM for each repurchase of the Class A Notes will be equal to the purchase price paid by JPM for such Class A Notes, plus interest thereon accrued at a fixed rate of 3.25% per annum. Commencing May 20, 2015, Cobbs Creek is permitted to reduce (based on certain thresholds) the aggregate principal amount of Class A Notes subject to the JPM Facility. Such reductions, and any other reductions of the principal amount of Class A Notes, including upon an event of default, will be subject to breakage fees in an amount equal to the present value of 1.25% per annum over the remaining term of the JPM Facility applied to the amount of such reduction.

Pursuant to the financing arrangement, the aggregate market value of assets expected to be held by Cobbs Creek when the financing arrangement is fully-ramped is $330,000. The assets held by Cobbs Creek secure the obligations of Cobbs Creek under the JPM Facility.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Class A Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $660,000 and $141,000, respectively, had been purchased by Cobbs Creek from Lehigh River and subsequently sold to JPM under the JPM Facility for aggregate proceeds of $550,000 and $117,500, respectively. We funded each purchase of Class A Notes by Cobbs Creek through a capital contribution to Cobbs Creek. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Cobbs Creek’s liability under the JPM Facility was $550,000 and $117,500, respectively, plus $1,355 and $274, respectively, of accrued interest expense. The Class A Notes issued by Lehigh River and purchased by Cobbs Creek eliminate in consolidation on our financial statements.

As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of assets held by Lehigh River was $1,223,564 and $306,851, respectively, which included assets purchased by Lehigh River with proceeds from the issuance of Class A Notes. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of assets held by Cobbs Creek was $336,641 and $94,247, respectively.

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2013, we had incurred costs of $159 in connection with obtaining and amending the JPM Facility, which we have recorded as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the JPM Facility. As of September 30, 2013, $123 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the JPM Facility was 3.25% as of September 30, 2013. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced in May 2013. We recorded interest expense of $2,613 and $5,334 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, of which $9 and $29, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs. We paid $4,224 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The average borrowings under the JPM Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $215,304, with a weighted average interest rate of 3.25%.

Cooper River Credit Facility

On March 27, 2013, Cooper River entered into the credit facility with Citibank, as administrative agent, and the financial institutions and other lenders from time to time party thereto. The credit facility provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $200,000 on a committed basis.

We may contribute cash or debt securities to Cooper River from time to time, subject to certain restrictions set forth in the credit facility, and will retain a residual interest in any assets contributed through our ownership of Cooper River or will receive fair market value for any debt securities sold to Cooper River. Cooper River may purchase additional debt securities from various sources. Cooper River has appointed us to manage its portfolio of debt securities pursuant to the terms of an investment management agreement. Cooper River’s obligations to the lenders under the credit facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Cooper River, including its portfolio of debt securities. The obligations of Cooper River under the credit facility are non-recourse to us and our exposure under the credit facility is limited to the value of our investment in Cooper River.

Borrowings under the credit facility accrue interest at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum during the first two years of the facility and three-month LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum thereafter. Borrowings under the credit facility are subject to compliance with an equity coverage ratio with respect to the current value of Cooper River’s portfolio and a loan compliance test with respect to the initial acquisition of each debt security in Cooper River’s portfolio.

Beginning on June 24, 2013, Cooper River became subject to a non-usage fee to the extent the aggregate principal amount available under the credit facility is not borrowed. Outstanding borrowings under the credit facility will be amortized beginning on June 27, 2015. Any amounts borrowed under the credit facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on March 27, 2016.

In connection with the closing of the credit facility, we contributed approximately $52,472 in cash to Cooper River. Cooper River used approximately $14,194 of borrowings under the credit facility, together with cash contributed by us, to fund its acquisition of approximately $65,108 in debt securities held by an affiliate of Citibank and to pay certain fees and expenses in connection with the establishment of the credit facility.

As of September 30, 2013, $170,494 was outstanding under the credit facility. The carrying amount of the amount outstanding under the credit facility approximates its fair value. We incurred costs of $1,557 in connection with obtaining the credit facility, which we have recorded as deferred financing costs on our consolidated balance sheets and amortize to interest expense over the life of the credit facility. As of September 30, 2013, $1,290 of such deferred financing costs had yet to be amortized to interest expense.

The effective interest rate on the borrowings under the credit facility was 2.14% per annum as of September 30, 2013. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears and commenced March 27, 2013. We recorded

Table of Contents

interest expense of $950 and $1,330 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, of which $132 and $267, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred financing costs and $73 and $81, respectively, related to fees on the unused portion of the credit facility. We paid $345 in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The average borrowings under the credit facility for the period from March 27, 2013 to September 30, 2013 were $92,996, with a weighted average interest rate (including the effect of non-usage fees) of 2.19%.

Under the credit facility, Cooper River has made certain representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. In addition to customary events of default included in financing transactions, the credit facility contains the following events of default: (a) the failure to make principal payments when due or interest payments within five business days of when due; (b) the insolvency or bankruptcy of Cooper River or us; (c) the failure of Cooper River to be beneficially owned and controlled by us; (d) our resignation or removal as Cooper River’s investment manager; and (e) GDFM (or any affiliate thereof or any replacement thereof approved in writing by Citibank) no longer serving as our investment sub-adviser. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, Citibank may declare the outstanding principal and interest and all other amounts owing under the credit facility immediately due and payable. During the continuation of an event of default, Cooper River must pay interest at a default rate.

Total Return Swap

On June 13, 2013, our wholly-owned, special-purpose financing subsidiary, Del River, and Citibank entered into the termination acknowledgment, pursuant to which Del River and Citibank agreed to immediately terminate the TRS Agreement and all transactions thereunder.

The TRS was for a portfolio of senior secured floating rate loans and other debt securities with a maximum notional amount of $425,000. Del River received from Citibank all interest and fees payable in respect of the assets underlying the TRS. Del River paid to Citibank interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum on the full notional amount of the assets subject to the TRS. In addition, upon the termination or repayment of any asset subject to the TRS, Del River either received from Citibank the appreciation in the value of such asset, or paid to Citibank any depreciation in the value of such asset.

Del River was permitted to terminate the TRS upon prior written notice to Citibank and no termination fee was payable in connection with the termination of the TRS.

Upon the termination of the TRS, we recognized $5,437 of gains, $1,836 of which represented periodic net settlement payments due on the TRS.

Capital Contribution by FSIC II Advisor and GDFM

In December 2011, Michael C. Forman and David J. Adelman, the principals of FSIC II Advisor, contributed an aggregate of $200 to purchase 22,222 shares of common stock at $9.00 per share, which represents the initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The principals have agreed not to tender these shares of common stock for repurchase as long as FSIC II Advisor remains our investment adviser.

In June 2012, pursuant to a private placement, Messrs. Forman and Adelman agreed to purchase, through affiliated entities controlled by each of them, 222,222 additional shares of common stock at $9.00 per share. The principals have agreed not to tender these shares of common stock for repurchase as long as FSIC II Advisor remains our investment adviser. In connection with the same private placement, certain members of our board of directors and other individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor agreed to purchase 1,247,267 shares of common stock, and certain individuals and entities affiliated with GDFM agreed to purchase 574,444 shares of common stock, in each case at a price of $9.00 per share. In connection with the private placement, we issued an

Table of Contents

aggregate of 2,043,933 shares of common stock for aggregate proceeds of $18,395 upon satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement on June 18, 2012. As of October 29, 2013, we had sold an aggregate of 3,131,670 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $28,576 to members of our board of directors and individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, including shares of common stock sold in the private placement completed in June 2012.

RIC Status and Distributions

We have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income,” as defined by the Code, each year. As long as the distributions are declared by the later of the fifteenth day of the ninth month following the close of the taxable year or the due date of the tax return, including extensions, distributions paid up to one year after the current tax year can be carried back to the prior tax year for determining the distributions paid in such tax year. We intend to make sufficient distributions to our stockholders to qualify for and maintain our RIC status each year. We are also subject to nondeductible federal excise taxes if we do not distribute at least 98% of net ordinary income, 98.2% of any capital gain net income, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior years on which we paid no federal income taxes.

We declared our first distribution on June 20, 2012. Prior to September 2013, we authorized and declared ordinary cash distributions on a semi-monthly basis and paid such distributions on a monthly basis. In connection with our transition from semi-monthly closings to weekly closings for the sale of shares of common stock in our continuous public offering, beginning in September 2013, we authorize and declare ordinary cash distributions on a weekly basis, while continuing to pay such distributions on a monthly basis, in each case subject to our board of directors’ discretion and applicable legal restrictions. We will calculate each stockholder’s specific distribution amount for the period using record and declaration dates and each stockholder’s distributions will begin to accrue on the date we accept such stockholder’s subscription for shares of our common stock. From time to time, we may also pay special interim distributions in the form of cash or common stock at the discretion of our board of directors. During certain periods, our distributions may exceed our earnings, especially during the period before we have substantially invested the proceeds from our continuous public offering of our common stock. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions we make will represent a return of capital for tax purposes. A return of capital generally is a return of an investor’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from our investment activities and will be made after deducting the fees and expenses payable in connection with our continuous public offering, including any fees payable to FSIC II Advisor. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions will be mailed to our stockholders. No portion of the distributions paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 represented a return of capital for tax purposes.

We intend to continue to make our ordinary distributions in the form of cash out of assets legally available for distribution, unless stockholders elect to receive their distributions in additional shares of our common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan. Any distributions reinvested under the plan will nevertheless remain taxable to a U.S. stockholder.

September 30, 2013

   $ 0.1837       $ 30,873   

On September 10, 2013, our board of directors declared regular weekly cash distributions for September 2013 through December 2013. The regular weekly cash distributions, each in the amount of $0.0145 per share, have been or will be paid monthly to stockholders of record as of weekly record dates previously determined by our board of directors. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors.

We may fund our cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds available to us, including offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to us on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense reimbursements from Franklin Square Holdings. We have not established limits on the amount of funds we may use from available sources to make distributions.

We expect that for a period of time following commencement of our continuous public offering, which time period may be significant, substantial portions of our distributions may be funded through the reimbursement of certain expenses by Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates, including through the waiver of certain investment advisory fees by FSIC II Advisor, that are subject to repayment by us within three years. The purpose of this arrangement is to ensure that no portion of our distributions to stockholders will be paid from offering proceeds or borrowings. Any such distributions funded through expense reimbursements or waivers of advisory fees are not based on our investment performance and can only be sustained if we achieve positive investment performance in future periods and/or Franklin Square Holdings continues to make such reimbursements or waivers of such fees. Our future repayments of amounts reimbursed or waived by Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates will reduce the distributions that stockholders would otherwise receive in the future. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the performance necessary to sustain our distributions or that we will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all. Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates have no obligation to waive advisory fees or otherwise reimburse expenses in future periods. No portion of the distributions paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was funded through the reimbursement of operating expenses by Franklin Square Holdings.

(1) During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 92% of our gross investment income was attributable to cash interest earned and 8% was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount and PIK interest. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 90% of our gross investment income was attributable to cash interest earned and 10% was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount.

Our net investment income on a tax basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $69,384 and $1,275, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, and December 31, 2012, we had $13,200 and $273, respectively, of undistributed net investment income on a tax basis. Our undistributed net investment income on a tax basis as of December 31, 2012 has been adjusted following the filing of our 2012 tax return in September 2013. The adjustment was due primarily to tax-basis income received by us during the year ended December 31, 2012 on account of certain collateralized securities and interests in partnerships held in our portfolio exceeding GAAP-basis income with respect to such investments for the same period. The tax notices for such collateralized securities and interests in partnerships were received by us subsequent to the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

See Note 5 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding our distributions, including a reconciliation of our GAAP-basis net investment income and tax-basis net investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. As we execute our operating plans, we will describe additional critical accounting policies in the notes to our future financial statements in addition to those discussed below.

Table of Contents

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

We determine the net asset value of our investment portfolio each quarter. Securities that are publicly-traded are valued at the reported closing price on the valuation date. Securities that are not publicly-traded are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. In connection with that determination, FSIC II Advisor provides our board of directors with portfolio company valuations which are based on relevant inputs, including, but not limited to, indicative dealer quotes, values of like securities, recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts, and valuations prepared by third-party valuation services.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities where there is little or no activity in the market; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, we undertake a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

 

   

our quarterly valuation process begins with FSIC II Advisor’s management team providing a preliminary valuation of each portfolio company or investment to our valuation committee, which valuation may be obtained from our sub-adviser or an independent valuation firm, if applicable;

 

   

preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our valuation committee;

 

   

our valuation committee reviews the preliminary valuation and FSIC II Advisor’s management team, together with our independent valuation firm, if applicable, responds and supplements the preliminary valuation to reflect any comments provided by the valuation committee; and

 

   

our board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on various statistical and other factors, including the input and recommendation of FSIC II Advisor, the valuation committee and any third-party valuation firm, if applicable.

Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations and any change in such valuations in our consolidated financial statements. Below is a description of factors that our board of directors may consider when valuing our debt and equity investments.

Valuation of fixed income investments, such as loans and debt securities, depends upon a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates for like securities, expected volatility in future interest rates, call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt. For investments without readily available market prices, we may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Other factors that our board of directors may consider include the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the portfolio company in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing our debt investments.

For convertible debt securities, fair value will generally approximate the fair value of the debt plus the fair value of an option to purchase the underlying security (the security into which the debt may convert) at the conversion price. To value such an option, a standard option pricing model may be used.

 

65


Table of Contents

Our equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. Our board of directors, in its analysis of fair value, may consider various factors, such as multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. All of these factors may be subject to adjustments based upon the particular circumstances of a portfolio company or our actual investment position. For example, adjustments to EBITDA may take into account compensation to previous owners or acquisition, recapitalization, restructuring or other related items.

Our board of directors may also look to private merger and acquisition statistics, public trading multiples discounted for illiquidity and other factors, valuations implied by third-party investments in the portfolio companies or industry practices in determining fair value. Our board of directors may also consider the size and scope of a portfolio company and its specific strengths and weaknesses, as well as any other factors it deems relevant in assessing the value. Generally, the value of our equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available is based upon the most recent closing public market price. Portfolio securities that carry certain restrictions on sale are typically valued at a discount from the public market value of the security.

When we receive warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, our board of directors will allocate the cost basis in the investment between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. Our board of directors will subsequently value these warrants or other equity securities received at fair value.

The fair values of our investments are determined in good faith by our board of directors. Our board of directors is solely responsible for the valuation of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to our valuation policy and consistently applied valuation process.

Our investments as of September 30, 2013 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, we valued our investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services. Eleven senior secured loan investments, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features, anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of the debt. Except as described below, all of our equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. Two senior secured loan investments, one senior secured bond investment and one equity/other investment, all of which were newly-issued and purchased near September 30, 2013, were valued at cost, as our board of directors determined that the cost of each such investment was the best indication of its fair value. Also, one equity/other investment which is traded on an active public market was valued at its closing price as of September 30, 2013.

Our investments as of December 31, 2012 consisted primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter market for institutional investors. Except as described below, we valued our investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services. One senior secured loan investment and one senior secured bond investment, for which broker quotes were not available, were valued by an independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, call features and other relevant terms of the debt. All of our equity/other investments were valued by the same independent valuation firm, which determined the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income

scenarios and multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. We valued the TRS in accordance with the TRS Agreement. Pursuant to the TRS Agreement, the value of the TRS was based on the increase or decrease in the value of the loans underlying the TRS, together with accrued interest income, interest expense and certain other expenses incurred under the TRS. The loans underlying the TRS were valued by Citibank. Citibank based its valuation on the indicative bid prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that market participants may be willing to pay. These valuations were sent to us for review and testing. Our valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the value of the TRS, as well as the value of the loans underlying the TRS, on a quarterly basis as part of their quarterly determination of net asset value. To the extent our valuation committee or board of directors had any questions or concerns regarding the valuation of the loans underlying the TRS, such valuation was discussed or challenged pursuant to the terms of the TRS.

We periodically benchmark the bid and ask prices we receive from the third-party pricing services against the actual prices at which we purchase and sell our investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of our management in purchasing and selling these investments, we believe that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. However, because of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), we believe that these valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. We may also use other methods to determine fair value for securities for which we cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices through our third-party pricing services or independent dealers, including the use of an independent valuation firm. We periodically benchmark the valuations provided by the independent valuation firm against the actual prices at which we purchase and sell our investments. Our valuation committee and board of directors reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with our valuation process.

Revenue Recognition

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. We record dividend income on the ex-dividend date. We do not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such income. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and we amortize such amounts as interest income over the respective term of the loan or security. Upon prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as fee income. Upfront structuring fees are recorded as income when earned. We record prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when we receive such amounts.

Net Realized Gains or Losses, Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation and Net Change in Unrealized Gains or Losses on Foreign Currency

Gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated by using the specific identification method. We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized. Net change in unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency reflects the change in the value of receivables or accruals during the reporting period due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement). Such fee will equal 20.0% of our incentive fee

Table of Contents

capital gains (i.e., our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. On a quarterly basis, we accrue for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.

While the investment advisory and administrative services agreement neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an interpretation of an AICPA Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, we include unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to FSIC II Advisor if our entire portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though FSIC II Advisor is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

In addition, we historically treated all net settlement payments received by us pursuant to our TRS (which is described more fully in “—Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources—Total Return Swap”), as realized capital gains and included only the aggregate amount of unrealized depreciation on the TRS as a whole in calculating the capital gains incentive fee payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to realized gains, in each case, in accordance with GAAP. However, the Staff informed us that it is their interpretation of the applicable language in the Advisers Act that we should “look through” the TRS in calculating our capital gains incentive fee. Under this “look through” methodology, the portion of the net settlement payments received by us pursuant to the TRS which would have represented net investment income to us had we held the loans or securities underlying the TRS directly would be treated as net investment income subject to the subordinated incentive fee on income payable to FSIC II Advisor pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, rather than as realized capital gains in accordance with GAAP, and any unrealized depreciation on individual loans or securities underlying the TRS would further reduce the capital gains incentive fee payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to realized gains. FSIC II Advisor voluntarily agreed to waive any capital gains incentive fee calculated in accordance with GAAP to which it would otherwise be entitled in respect of the TRS if and to the extent that the amount of such fee exceeds the sum of (i) the amount of capital gains incentive fee determined in respect of the TRS on a “look through” basis under which we treat the reference assets underlying the TRS as our investments and (ii) the aggregate amount of subordinated incentive fees on income which would have been payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to the portion of the net settlement payments received by us pursuant to the TRS which represent net investment income on the loans or securities underlying the TRS on a “look through” basis.

The amount of capital gains incentive fees accrued by us as of December 31, 2012 exceeded by $441 the amount of incentive fees which would have been payable to FSIC II Advisor as of such date in accordance with the “look through” methodology. In accordance with FSIC II Advisor’s voluntary agreement to waive any such excess, we reduced the amount of accrued capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor by $441 effective as of March 31, 2013. We made a corresponding reduction to the amount of expense reimbursement due from sponsor as of March 31, 2013, which also reduced by $441 the amount of expense recoupment payable to sponsor as of March 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the aggregate capital gains incentive fees paid to FSIC II Advisor in prior periods and accrued as of such date with respect to realized gains in accordance with GAAP did not exceed the fees which would have been payable in accordance with the “look through” methodology. On June 13, 2013, we terminated the TRS.

Subordinated Income Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on adjusted capital, as defined in the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an

 

68


Table of Contents

annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. As a result, FSIC II Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. Once our pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FSIC II Advisor will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until our pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.34375%, or 9.375% annually, of adjusted capital. Thereafter, FSIC II Advisor will receive 20.0% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Uncertainty in Income Taxes

We evaluate our tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax benefits or liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. Recognition of a tax benefit or liability with respect to an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in our consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we did not incur any interest or penalties.

Contractual Obligations

We have entered into an agreement with FSIC II Advisor to provide us with investment advisory and administrative services. Payments for investment advisory services under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement are equal to (a) an annual base management fee of 2.0% of the average value of our gross assets and (b) an incentive fee based on our performance. FSIC II Advisor and, to the extent it is required to provide such services, our sub-adviser are reimbursed for administrative expenses incurred on our behalf. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we incurred $11,067 and $826, respectively, in base management fees and $777 and $100, respectively, in administrative services expenses under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we incurred $23,647 and $848, respectively, in base management fees and $1,882 and $120, respectively, in administrative services expenses under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement. In addition, FSIC II Advisor is eligible to receive incentive fees based on the performance of our portfolio. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued a subordinated incentive fee on income of $8,871 based on the performance of our portfolio. We did not accrue any subordinated incentive fee on income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012. No amounts were paid to FSIC II Advisor in respect of the subordinated incentive fee on income during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, we had accrued capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor of $3,548 based on the performance of our portfolio, of which $3,070 was based on unrealized gains and $478 was based on realized gains. Effective as of March 31, 2013, FSIC II Advisor voluntarily agreed to waive any capital gains incentive fees calculated in accordance with GAAP to the extent such fees exceeded those which would be payable in accordance with the “look through” methodology described more fully under “—Critical Accounting Policies—Capital Gains Incentive Fee.” This waiver resulted in a reduction of $441 to the amount of capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to realized gains. Accordingly, we reduced the amount of accrued capital gains incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor by $441 effective as of March 31, 2013. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $2,062 based on the performance of our portfolio, all of which was based on unrealized gains. We paid FSIC II Advisor $37 in capital gains incentive fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. As a result of the foregoing, we have accrued capital gains incentive fees as of September 30, 2013 of $5,132, all of which was based on unrealized gains and none of which is currently payable to FSIC II Advisor.

Compensation of the Dealer Manager and Investment Adviser

Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, FSIC II Advisor is entitled to an annual base management fee of 2.0% of the average value of our gross assets and an incentive fee based on our performance. We commenced accruing fees under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement on June 18, 2012, upon commencement of our operations. Management fees are paid on a quarterly basis in arrears.

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part, which is referred to as the subordinated incentive fee on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.0% of “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on adjusted capital, as defined in the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.5%. The second part of the incentive fee, which is referred to as the incentive fee on capital gains, is accrued for on a quarterly basis and, if earned, is paid annually. We accrue this incentive fee based on net realized and unrealized gains; however, under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, the fee payable to FSIC II Advisor is based on realized gains and no such fee is payable with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Capital Gains Incentive Fee” for a discussion of the treatment of the TRS with respect to the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee.

We reimburse FSIC II Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations. The amount of this reimbursement is set at the lesser of (1) FSIC II Advisor’s actual costs incurred in providing such services and (2) the amount that we estimate we would be required to pay alternative service providers for comparable services in the same geographic location. FSIC II Advisor is required to allocate the cost of such services to us based on objective factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other

reasonable metrics. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to us of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, our board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, our board of directors compares the total amount paid to FSIC II Advisor for such services as a percentage of our net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.

Franklin Square Holdings has funded certain of our offering costs and organization costs. These costs have been recorded by us as a contribution to capital. The offering costs were offset against capital in excess of par value on the consolidated financial statements and the organization costs were charged to expense as incurred by us. Under the terms of the investment advisory and administrative services agreement, upon satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement, FSIC II Advisor became entitled to receive 1.5% of gross proceeds raised in our continuous public offering until all offering costs and organization costs funded by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliates (including Franklin Square Holdings) had been recovered. On June 18, 2012, we satisfied the minimum offering requirement. Since inception, Franklin Square Holdings has funded $3,202 in offering costs and organization costs, all of which were reimbursed during the year ended December 31, 2012. The reimbursements were recorded as a reduction of capital. As of September 30, 2013, no amounts remain reimbursable to FSIC II Advisor and its affiliates under this arrangement.

The dealer manager for our continuous public offering is FS2, which is one of our affiliates. Under the dealer manager agreement among us, FSIC II Advisor and FS2, FS2 is entitled to receive sales commissions and dealer manager fees in connection with the sale of shares of common stock in our continuous public offering, all or a portion of which may be re-allowed to selected broker-dealers.

The following table describes the fees and expenses accrued under the investment advisory and administrative services agreement and the dealer manager agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $2,062 and $1,080, respectively, based on the performance of our portfolio, of which $2,062 and $885, respectively, was based on unrealized gains and $0 and $195, respectively, was based on realized gains. No such fees are actually payable by us with respect to such unrealized gains unless and until those gains are actually realized. See “—Critical Accounting Policies—Capital Gains Incentive Fee” for a discussion of the methodology employed by us in calculating the capital gains incentive fee. As of December 31, 2012, we had accrued capital gains incentive fees of $3,548 based on the performance of our portfolio, of which $3,070 was based on unrealized gains and $478 was based on realized gains.

Capital Contribution by FSIC II Advisor and GDFM

In December 2011, Michael C. Forman and David J. Adelman, the principals of FSIC II Advisor, contributed an aggregate of $200 to purchase 22,222 shares of common stock at $9.00 per share, which represents the initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees. The principals have agreed not to tender these shares of common stock for repurchase as long as FSIC II Advisor remains our investment adviser.

In June 2012, pursuant to a private placement, Messrs. Forman and Adelman agreed to purchase, through affiliated entities controlled by each of them, 222,222 additional shares of common stock at $9.00 per share. The principals have agreed not to tender these shares of common stock for repurchase as long as FSIC II Advisor remains our investment adviser. In connection with the same private placement, certain members of our board of directors and other individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor agreed to purchase 1,247,267 shares of common stock, and certain individuals and entities affiliated with GDFM agreed to purchase 574,444 shares of common stock, in each case at a price of $9.00 per share. In connection with the private placement, we issued an aggregate of 2,043,933 shares of common stock for aggregate proceeds of $18,395 upon satisfaction of the minimum offering requirement on June 18, 2012. As of October 29, 2013, we have sold an aggregate of 3,131,670 shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $28,576 to members of our board of directors and individuals and entities affiliated with FSIC II Advisor and GDFM, including shares of common stock sold in the private placement completed in June 2012.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

FSIC II Advisor’s senior management team is comprised of the same personnel as the senior management teams of FB Income Advisor, LLC and FS Investment Advisor, LLC, the investment advisers to Franklin Square Holdings’ other affiliated BDCs, FS Investment Corporation and FS Energy and Power Fund, respectively. As a result, such personnel provide investment advisory services to each of us, FS Investment Corporation and FS Energy and Power Fund. While none of FSIC II Advisor, FB Income Advisor, LLC or FS Investment Advisor, LLC is currently making private corporate debt investments for clients other than us, FS Investment Corporation or FS Energy and Power Fund, respectively, any, or all, may do so in the future. In the event that FSIC II Advisor undertakes to provide investment advisory services to other clients in the future, it intends to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with our investment objectives and strategies, if necessary, so that we will not be disadvantaged in relation to any other client of FSIC II Advisor or its management team.

Exemptive Relief

In an order dated June 4, 2013, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting us, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with affiliates of FSIC II Advisor, including FS Investment Corporation and FS Energy and Power Fund and any future BDCs that are advised by FSIC II Advisor or its affiliated investment advisers. Because we did not seek exemptive relief to engage in co-investment transactions with GDFM and its affiliates, we will be permitted to co-invest with GDFM and its affiliates only in accordance with existing regulatory guidance.

Expense Reimbursement

Pursuant to the expense reimbursement agreement, Franklin Square Holdings has agreed to reimburse us for expenses in an amount that is sufficient to ensure that no portion of our distributions to stockholders will be paid from our offering proceeds or borrowings. See “—Overview—Expense Reimbursement” for a detailed description of the expense reimbursement agreement.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we accrued $2,482 for reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings under this arrangement, of which $847 was funded by Franklin Square Holdings during such period. As of December 31, 2012, we had $1,635 of reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. In connection with FSIC II Advisor’s voluntary agreement to waive $441 of accrued but unpaid capital gains incentive fees, a corresponding reduction was made to the amount of accrued expense reimbursements due from Franklin Square Holdings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, this balance was offset against expense recoupment payable to sponsor. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we accrued an expense recoupment payable to sponsor of $2,041, which we offset against the reimbursements due on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012, and made expense recoupment payments of $847 to Franklin Square Holdings. As of September 30, 2013, no further amounts remain subject to repayment by us to Franklin Square Holdings in the future.

FS Benefit Trust

On May 30, 2013, FS Trust was formed as a Delaware statutory trust for the purpose of awarding equity incentive compensation to employees of Franklin Square Holdings and its affiliates. In connection with our semi-monthly closing occurring on June 17, 2013, FS Trust purchased approximately $34 of our shares of common stock at a purchase price equal to 90% of the offering price in effect on such date, or $9.45 per share.

Recent Developments

During the period from October 1, 2013 to October 29, 2013, we sold 13,041,273 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $135,591 at an average price per share of $10.40.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2013, 69.7% of our portfolio investments (based on fair value) paid variable interest rates, 29.3% paid fixed interest rates, 0.8% were non-income producing equity or other investments and the remainder (0.2%) were income-producing equity or other investments. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to any variable rate investments we hold and to declines in the value of any fixed rate investments we hold. To the extent that a substantial portion of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest rates would make it easier for us to meet or exceed our incentive fee hurdle rate, as described in the investment advisory and administrative services agreement we have entered into with FSIC II Advisor, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income and to the amount of incentive fees payable to FSIC II Advisor with respect to our increased pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Pursuant to the terms of the credit facility which Cooper River maintains with Citibank, Cooper River borrows at a floating rate based on LIBOR. Under the terms of the JPM Facility, Cobbs Creek pays interest to JPM at a fixed rate. To the extent that any present or future credit facilities, total return swap agreements or other financing arrangements that we or any of our subsidiaries enter into are based on a floating interest rate, we will be subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In periods of rising interest rates when we or our subsidiaries have such debt outstanding or financing arrangements in effect, our interest expense would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we hold fixed rate investments.

We expect that our long-term investments will be financed primarily with equity and debt. If deemed prudent, we may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.

In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Valuation of Portfolio Investments.”

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2013. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that we would meet our disclosure obligations.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings and, to our knowledge, no material legal proceedings are threatened against us.

While the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.
