ALCENTRA CAPITAL CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2014 (Unaudited)

 

1.Organization and Purpose

 

Alcentra Capital Corporation (the “Company”, “Alcentra”, “we”, “us” or “our”) was formed as a Maryland corporation on June 4, 2013 as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Furthermore, as the Company is an investment company, it continues to apply the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946. Alcentra is managed by Alcentra NY, LLC (the “Adviser” or “Alcentra NY”), registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Alcentra intends to elect to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), commencing with its tax year ending December 31, 2014, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).

  

The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring certain assets held by BNY Mellon-Alcentra Mezzanine III, L.P. (the “Partnership”). The Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership, which commenced operations on May 14, 2010 (the “Commencement Date”). BNY Mellon-Alcentra Mezzanine III (GP), L.P. (the “General Partner”), a Delaware limited liability company, is the General Partner of the Partnership. BNY Mellon-Alcentra Mezzanine Partners (the “Manager”), a division of Alcentra NY, LLC and an affiliate of the General Partner, manages the investment activities of the Partnership. Alcentra NY is wholly-owned by BNY Alcentra Group Holdings, Inc. (“Alcentra Group”), which is wholly-owned by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.

 

On May 8, 2014 (commencement of operations), the Company acquired all of the assets of the Partnership other than its investment in the shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock of GTT Communications (the “Fund III Acquired Assets”) for $64.4 million in cash and $91.5 million in shares of Alcentra’s common stock. Alcentra’s investment activities are managed by the Adviser. Concurrent with Alcentra’s acquisition of the Fund III Acquired Assets from the Partnership, Alcentra also purchased for $29 million in cash certain additional investments (the “Warehouse Portfolio”) from Alcentra Group. The Warehouse Portfolio consisted of approximately $29 million in debt investments originated by the investment professionals of the Adviser and purchased by Alcentra Group using funds under a warehouse credit facility provided by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation in anticipation of the initial public offering of Alcentra’s shares of common stock. Except for the $1,500 seed capital, the Company had no assets or operations prior to the acquisition of the investment portfolios of the Partnership and as a result, the Partnership is considered a predecessor entity of the Company.

 

On May 14, 2014, Alcentra completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”), at a price of $15.00 per share. Through its initial public offering the Company sold 6,666,666 shares for gross proceeds of approximately $100 million. Alcentra used $94.2 million of the proceeds from the Offering to repay the Bridge Facility in full. On June 6, 2014, Alcentra sold 750,000 shares through the underwriters’ exercise of the overallotment option for gross proceeds of $11,250,000.

 

The Company’s investment objective is to maximize the total return to its stockholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation through debt and related equity investments in middle-market companies. The Company seeks to achieve its investment objective by originating and investing primarily in private U.S. middle-market companies (typically those with $5.0 million to $15.0 million of EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) through first lien, second lien, unitranche and mezzanine debt financing, with corresponding equity co-investments. It sources investments primarily through the extensive network of relationships that the principals of its investment adviser have developed with financial sponsor firms, financial institutions, middle-market companies, management teams and other professional intermediaries.

  

Upon commencement of operations, the Company also entered into an administration and custodian agreement (the “Agreement”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Administrator”).

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Partnership and the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements, including certain financial statement notes, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and have been omitted. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial results included herein contain all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim periods included herein. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

 

In accordance with Regulation S-X Article 6.03 and ASC Topic 810 - Consolidation, the Company generally will not consolidate its interest in any operating company other than in investment company subsidiaries, certain financing subsidiaries, and controlled operating companies substantially all of whose business consists of providing services to the Company.

 

As of June 30, 2013, the Company had not yet begun investment operations. Alcentra NY purchased the initial 100 shares for $1,500 on March 12, 2014. As such any per share data is not calculable as of June 30, 2013.

 

On April 8, 2014, the Company formed Alcentra BDC Equity Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary for tax purposes. The financial accounts of this entity are consolidated into the accounts of Alcentra. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. The most significant estimates relate to the valuation of the Company’s portfolio investments.

 

Portfolio Investment Classification

 

The Company classifies its portfolio investments with the requirements of the 1940 Act, (a) “Control Investments” are defined as investments in which the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities or has rights to maintain greater than 50% of the board representation, (b) “Affiliate Investments” are defined as investments in which the Company owns between 5% and 25% of the voting securities and does not have rights to maintain greater than 50% of the board representation, and (c) “Non-controlled, non-affiliate investments” are defined as investments that are neither Control Investments or Affiliate Investments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

At June 30, 2014, Cash balances totaling $24,407,025 exceeded FDIC insurance protection levels, subjecting the Company to risk related to the uninsured balance. All of the Company’s cash deposits are held by the Administrator and management believes that risk of loss associated with any uninsured balance is remote.

 

Cash and cash equivalents include deposits held at the custodian bank and short-term investments with original maturities of less than 90 days at time of purchase.

  

Deferred Financing Costs

 

Deferred financing costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of the credit facility and are capitalized at the time of payment. These costs are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the credit facility.

 

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

 

Portfolio investments are carried at fair value as determined by the General Partner of the Partnership and, in case of the fair value as of June 30, 2014, by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Alcentra.

 

The methodologies used in determining these valuations include:

 

(1) Preferred shares/membership units and common shares/membership units

 

In determining estimated fair value for common shares/membership units and preferred shares, the Company or the Partnership makes assessments of the methodologies and value measurements which market participants would use in pricing comparable investments, based on market data obtained from independent sources as well as from the Partnership’s or Company’s own assumptions and taking into account all material events and circumstance which would affect the estimated fair value of such investments. Several types of factors, circumstances and events could affect the estimated fair value of the investments. These include but are not limited to the following:

 

16
 

  

(i) Any material changes in the (a) competitive position of the portfolio investment, (b) legal and regulatory environment within which the portfolio investment operates, (c) management or key managers of the portfolio investment, (d) terms and/or cost of financing available to the portfolio investment, and (e) financial position or operating results of the investment; (ii) pending disposition by the Company or Partnership of all or a major portfolio investments; and (iii) sales prices of recent public or private transactions in identical or comparable investments.

 

One or a combination of the following valuation techniques are used to fair value these investments: Market Approach and Income Approach. The Market Approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The Income Approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a present amount (i.e., discounting estimated future cash flows to a net present value amount).

 

(2) Debt

 

The yield to maturity analysis issued to estimate the fair value of debt, including the unitranche facilities, which are a combination of senior and subordinated debt in one debt instrument. The calculation of yield to maturity takes into account the current market price, par value, coupon interest rate and time to maturity.

 

(3) Warrants

 

Where warrants are considered to be in the money, their incremental value is included within the valuation of the investments.

 

Valuation techniques are applied consistently from period to period, except when circumstances warrant a change to a different valuation technique that will provide a better estimate of fair value. The valuation process begins with each investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the General Partner or for the Company, its Adviser. Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior investment professionals of the General Partner of the Partnership or for the Company, its Adviser. The Investment Committee reviews the valuation of the investment professionals and then determines the fair value of each investment in good faith based on the input of the investment professionals.

 

With respect to the Company’s valuation process, the Board undertakes a similar multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

 

  · Alcentra’s quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment;
     

  · preliminary valuation conclusions will then be documented and discussed with Alcentra’s senior management and the Adviser;

 

  · the audit committee of the Board then reviews these preliminary valuations;

 

  · at least once quarterly, independent valuation firms engaged by the Board prepare preliminary valuations on a selected basis and submit the reports to the Board; and

 

  · the Board of Directors then discuss valuations and determine the fair value of each investment in Alcentra’s portfolio in good faith, based on the input of the Adviser, the independent valuation firms and the audit committee.

 

The Board has authorized the engagement of independent valuation firms to provide Alcentra with valuation assistance. Alcentra intends to have independent valuation firms provide it with valuation assistance on a portion of its portfolio on a quarterly basis and its entire portfolio will be reviewed at least annually by independent valuation firms; however, the Board is ultimately and solely responsible for the valuation of its portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to its valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process.

 

Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market for the securities existed or from those which will ultimately be realized.

 

Translation of Foreign Currencies - The accounting records of the Company and the Partnership are maintained in United States dollars. The fair value of foreign securities, currency holdings, and other assets and liabilities in currencies other than United States dollars are translated based on the exchange rates in effect on the date of valuation. The cost of each security is determined using historical exchange rates. Foreign currency transactions are translated at prevailing exchange rates at the time of such transactions. The Company does not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains or losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in the local currency market price of the securities. Such gains and losses are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on portfolio investments in the statement of operations.

 

Organizational and Offering Costs – Organization expenses, including reimbursement payments to the Adviser, are expensed on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. These expenses consist principally of legal and accounting fees incurred in connection with the organization of the Company and have been expensed as incurred. Offering expenses consist principally of underwriter’s fee, legal, accounting and printing fees associated with the registration statement. Offering costs are offset against proceeds of the offering in paid-in capital in excess of par in the consolidated statement of changes in net assets. $1.25 million of offering costs were incurred with the initial public offering. $0.2 million of organization expenses were incurred as of June 30, 2014 for Alcentra.

 

The Partnership is obligated to reimburse the General Partner for 100% of the placement fee and for organizational costs of the Partnership in an amount not to exceed $1,250,000 on a cumulative basis. Organizational costs paid by the Partnership in excess of $1,250,000 (“Excess Organizational Expenses”) and all placement fees paid by the Partnership will reduce the management fee as described in Note 7. No costs were charged for the Partnership for the periods ended June 30, 2014 or June 30, 2013.

 

Paid-In-Capital

 

The Company records the proceeds from the sale of its common stock on a net basis to (i) capital stock and (ii) paid in capital in excess of par value, excluding all commissions.

 

17
 

 

Earnings Per Share – Earnings per share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reported period.  

 

Investments - Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Cost of portfolio investments represents the actual purchase price of the securities acquired including capitalized legal, brokerage and other fees as well as the value of interest and dividends received in-kind and the amortization of original issue discounts. Fees may be charged to the issuer by the Company and Partnership in connection with the origination of a debt security financing. Such fees are reflected as a discount to the cost of the portfolio security and the discount is accreted into income over the life of the related debt security.

 

Original Issue Discount - When the Company and Partnership receive warrants with a nominal or discounted exercise price upon origination of a debt or preferred stock investment, a portion of the cost basis is allocated to the warrants. When the investment is made concurrently with the sale of a substantial amount of equity, the value of the warrants is based on the sales price. The value of the warrants is recorded as original issue discount (“OID”) to the value of the debt or preferred stock investment and the OID is amortized over the life of the investment.

 

Interest and Dividend Income - Interest income is accrued when earned. Interest is not accrued if realization appears unlikely. The Company and Partnership accrue paid in-kind interest (“PIK”) by recording income and an increase to the cost basis of the related investments. Dividend income is recorded on ex-dividend date. Dividends in-kind are recorded as increase in cost basis of investments and as income.

 

Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest cash payments will be collected. Such non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest are paid in cash, and in management’s judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining principal and interest obligations. Cash interest payments received on non-accrual designated investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending on management’s judgment. There were no non-accrual investments as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

 

Other Income - Other income consists of transaction fees which are accreted into income over the life of the related debt security, fee income discount and tax distributions.

 

Income Taxes – Beginning with its first taxable year, the Company intends to elect for U.S. federal income tax purposes to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, and to operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RIC’s. To obtain and maintain our qualification as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, the Company must distribute to our stockholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of ‘‘investment company taxable income,’’ which is generally net ordinary taxable income plus the excess of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, or the Annual Distribution Requirement. As a RIC, the Company generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that are timely distributed to stockholders as dividends.

 

The Partnership is structured as a partnership for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, and as such, is not subject to income taxes; each Partner (depending on its structure for tax purposes) may be individually liable for income taxes, if any, on its share of the Partnership’s taxable income.

 

Alcentra BDC Equity Holdings LLC has elected to be a taxable entity (the Taxable Subsidiary”). The Taxable Subsidiary permits the Company to hold equity investments in portfolio companies which are “pass through” entities for tax purposes and continue to comply with the “source income” requirements contained in RIC tax provisions of the Code. The Taxable subsidiary is not consolidated with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expense, benefit, and the related tax assets and liabilities, as a result of its ownership of certain portfolio investments. The income tax expense, or benefit, if any, and related tax assets and liabilities are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Partnerships’ financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions with respect to tax at the partnership level not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The General Partner has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Partnerships’ financial statements. However, the General Partner’s conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions will be subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

 

18
 

 

The following is the major tax jurisdiction for the Partnership and the earliest tax year subject to examination: United States – 2010.

 

Indemnification

 

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contractual agreements that provide general indemnifications against losses, costs, claims and liabilities arising from the performance of individual obligations under such agreements. The Company has had no prior claims or payments pursuant to such agreements. The Company’s individual maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on management’s experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

3.Fair Value of Portfolio Investments

 

The Company and Partnership account for its investments in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820 (“ASC Topic 820”), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. ASC Topic 820 established a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value.

 

Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment, the characteristics specific to the investment, and the state of the marketplace (including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants). Investments with readily-available actively quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively-quoted prices in an orderly market will generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

 

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories (from highest to lowest) based on inputs:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) are available in active markets for identical investments that the Company and Partnership has the ability to access as of the reporting date. The type of investments which would generally be included in Level 1 include listed equity securities and listed derivatives. As required by ASC Topic 820, the Company and Partnership, to the extent that it holds such investments, does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Company and Partnership holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.

 

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are observable for the investments, either directly or indirectly, as of the reporting date, but are not the same as those used in Level 1. Fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

 

Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant judgment or estimation by the Company and Partnership. The types of investments which would generally be included in this category include debt and equity securities issued by private entities.

 

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given investment is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company and Partnership’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

 

The following table summarizes the levels in the fair value hierarchy into which the Company and Partnership’s financial instruments are categorized as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

5.Distributions

 

Alcentra Capital Corporation

 

The Company intends to make quarterly distributions of available net investment income determined on a tax basis to its stockholders. Distributions to stockholders are recorded on the record date. The amount, if any, to be distributed to stockholders is determined by the Board each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by management. Net realized capital gains, if any, will be distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment and pay a 4% excise tax on such excess.

 

The following table reflects the Company’s dividends declared and paid or to be paid on its common stock:

 

Date Declared  Record Date  Payment Date  Amount Per Share 
June 24, 2014  June 30, 2014  July 7, 2014  $0.178 

 

The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) that provides for the reinvestment of dividends on behalf of its stockholders, unless a stockholder has elected to receive dividends in cash. As a result, if the Company declares a cash dividend, the stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP no later than the record date will have their cash dividend automatically reinvested into additional shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company has the option to satisfy the share requirements of the DRIP through the issuance of new shares of common stock or through open market purchases of common stock by the DRIP plan administrator. Newly issued shares are valued based upon the final closing price of the common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the dividend payment date. Shares purchased in the open market to satisfy the DRIP requirements will be valued upon the average price of the applicable shares purchased by the Plan Administrator, before any associated brokerage or other costs.

Proceeds from portfolio investments will be distributed to the partners in proportion to their contributions to such investment until the partners have received a) first, 100% to all Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have received an amount equal to their aggregate capital contributions made to the Partnership (including, capital contributions made to the Partnership to fund the Partnership’s organizational expenses, management fees and other ongoing costs); b) second, 100% to all Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have received preferred returns of 8% and 5%, for Class A Limited Partners and Class B Limited Partners, respectively, per annum on the aggregate capital contributions made to the Partnership (including, capital contributions made to the Partnership to fund the Partnership’s organizational expenses, management fees and other ongoing costs); c) third, for Class A Limited Partners only, 100% to the General Partner as a carried interest distribution until the General Partner has received an amount equal to 20% of the aggregate amount of distributions; and d) thereafter (a) 80% to such Partner and (b) 20% to the General Partner. Income from short-term investments is distributed to all partners in proportion to such partners’ contributions to such investments.

 

22
 

 

For the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014 and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Partnership made distributions to the Limited Partners totaling $3,941,341 and $4,902,112, respectively. For the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014, distributions made to Class A Limited Partners and Class B Limited Partners amounted to 70.48% and 29.52% of total distributions, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, distributions made to Class A Limited Partners and Class B Limited Partners amounted to 67.87% and 29.21% of total distributions, respectively.

 

Upon the termination of the Partnership, if it is determined that the General Partner has received carried interest distributions in excess of the amount it would have received had such distributions been determined on a cumulative basis, a clawback payment of such excess is required of the General Partner.

 

Distributions to limited partners in 2014 are broken down as follows:

 

Return on capital  $3,191,341 
Return of capital   750,000 
Total  3,941,341 

 

6.Allocation of Profits and Losses

 

Allocations of Partnership profits are made in a manner which is consistent with, and gives effect to, the distribution procedures outlined in Note 5 above. Partnership losses are allocated to all partners in proportion to such partners’ capital commitments or to such partners’ percentage ownership in such investment from which the losses arose, or if there is no such investment, in proportion to their capital commitment. For the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014 and six months ended June 30, 2013, the General Partner was allocated carried interest distributions of $924,600 and $1,804,963, respectively. As a result of the completion of Alcentra’s initial public offering, the General Partner’s allocated carried interest as of May 7, 2014 was reallocated to the Limited Partners in accordance with the provisions of the Partnership’s Limited Partnership Agreement (December 31, 2013, as revised). Accordingly, the carried interest allocated to the General Partner through May 7, 2014 of approximately $6 million was reallocated to the Limited Partners.

 

7.Related Party Transactions

 

Management Fee

 

Alcentra Capital Corporation

 

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay Alcentra NY an annual base management fee based on our gross assets as well as an incentive fee based on our performance. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate as follows: 1.75% of our gross assets (i.e., total assets held before deduction of any liabilities), including assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage and excluding cash and cash equivalents (such as investments in U.S. Treasury Bills), if our gross assets are below $625 million; 1.625% if our gross assets are between $625 million and $750 million; and 1.5% if our gross assets are greater than $750 million. The various management fee percentages (i.e. 1.75%, 1.625% and 1.5%) would apply to our entire gross assets in the event our gross assets exceed the various gross asset thresholds. The base management fee will be payable quarterly in arrears.

 

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20% of our ‘‘pre-incentive fee net investment income’’ for the immediately preceding quarter, subject to a hurdle rate of 2% per quarter (8% annualized), and is subject to a ‘‘catch-up’’ feature. The second part is calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or, upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and equals 20% of our aggregate cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of each calendar year, computed net of aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees. Pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial assistance and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable for administrative services under the Investment Advisory Agreement, and any interest expense and any distributions paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee and any offering expenses and other expenses not charged to operations but excluding certain reversals to the extent such reversals have the effect of reducing previously accrued incentive fees based on the deferral of non-cash interest). Pre-incentive fee net investment income excludes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income until we have received such income in cash.

 

For the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an expense for management fees of $524,548 of which $524,548 was payable at June 30, 2014.

 

Our Adviser may waive its fees (base management and incentive fee), without recourse against or reimbursement by us, for the remainder of the quarter in which the initial public offering is completed and the subsequent four quarters to the extent required in order for the Company to earn a quarterly net investment income to maintain a targeted dividend payment on shares of common stock outstanding on the relevant dividend payment dates of 9.0% (to be paid on a quarterly basis). There are no waived fees for the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014 and no incentive fees incurred by the Company during the same period.

For the period from the Commencement Date to the fifth anniversary of the Final Closing Date, the Partnership will pay to the Manager a management fee at an annual rate equal to the product of 1.50% for each Class A Limited Partner and 1.00% - 1.25% for each Class B Limited Partner, in each case multiplied by such Limited Partner’s Capital Commitment. After the fifth anniversary of the Final Closing Date, the management fee will be paid at annual rates of 1.50% and 1.00% - 1.25% for Class A Limited Partners and Class B Limited Partners, respectively, in each case multiplied by the aggregate amount of such Limited Partner’s Capital Contributions used to fund the cost of Investments that have not been the subject of a Disposition less the aggregate amount of such Limited Partner’s Capital Contributions with respect to all Investments which have not been disposed of prior to the date of such distribution and which have been permanently written off. The management fee is payable quarterly in advance. For the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014, Class A Limited Partners were charged $751,956 and Class B Limited Partners were charged $242,850 in Management Fees.

The management fee is reduced by the placement fees and Excess Organization Expenses paid by the Partnership. The management fee is further reduced by 100% of all transaction fees, investment fees, monitoring fees, management fees and directors’ fees received by the General Partner or any affiliate thereof, net of unreimbursed out-of-pocket expenses. For the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014 and six months ended June 30, 2013 there were no placement fees, Excess Organizational Expenses, or fees received by the Manager that reduced management fee expense in the reporting period.

 

Certain employees of the Manager are Limited Partners of the Partnership. As of May 7, 2014, an affiliate of the Partnership also has a $50.0 million commitment to the Partnership as a Limited Partner.

10.Credit Facility/Line of Credit

 

In May 2014, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with ING Capital LLC to provide liquidity in support of its investment and operational activities. The Credit Facility, which has an initial commitment of $80 million supported by seven financial institutions. The Credit Facility matures on May 8, 2018. Deferred financing costs related to this credit facility were $1.55 million as of June 30, 2014.

 

The Credit Facility has an accordion feature that allows for an increase in the total commitment size up to $160 million, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Facility is secured primarily by the Company’s assets.

 

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, subject to the Company’s election, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the one, three or six month LIBOR, as applicable, plus 3.25% or (ii) 2.25% plus the highest of (A) a prime rate, (B) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% and (C) three month LIBOR plus 1.0%. The Company pays a commitment fee of 1.0% per annum on undrawn amounts, which is included with interest fees on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are also limited to a borrowing base, which includes certain cash and a portion of eligible debt investments.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had United States dollar borrowings of $22.6 million outstanding under the Credit Facility.

 

The Partnership entered into a credit agreement with the Administrator under which the Partnership can borrow an aggregate principal amount of $15 million for the financing of portfolio investments. Interest is charged at the LIBOR Rate plus 1.00%. The credit agreement terminated on April 24, 2014. As of December 31, 2013, the Partnership had outstanding borrowings of $15,000,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, Alcentra and the Partnership borrowed an average of $19,158,875 and $5,000,000, respectively.

11.Market and Other Risk Factors

 

At June 30, 2014, the Company’s portfolio investments are comprised of non-publicly-traded securities. The non-publicly-traded securities trade in an illiquid marketplace. The portfolio is concentrated in the eighteen industries listed in Note 13. Risks affecting these industries include, but are not limited to, increasing competition, rapid changes in technology, government actions and changes in economic conditions. These risk factors could have a material effect on the ultimate realizable value of the Company’s investments.

 

Economic conditions in 2014 continued to impact revenues and operating cash flows for most businesses and continued to impact the lending markets, leaving many businesses unable to borrow or refinance debt obligations. These restrictions on obtaining available financing, coupled with the continuing economic slowdown, have resulted in a low volume of purchase and sale transactions across all industries, which has limited the amount of observable inputs available to the Company in estimating the fair value of the Company’s investments. The Company estimates the fair value of investments for which observable market prices in active markets do not exist based on the best information available, which may differ significantly from values that would have otherwise been used had a ready market for the investments existed and the differences could be material.

 

Market conditions may deteriorate, which may negatively impact the estimated fair value of the Company’s investments or the amounts which are ultimately realized for such investments.

 

The above events are beyond the control of the Company and cannot be predicted. Furthermore, the ability to liquidate investments and realize value is subject to significant limitations and uncertainties. There may also be risk associated with the concentration of investments in one geographic region or in certain industries.

 

12.Commitments and Contingencies

 

In the normal course of business, the Company and the Partnership enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify its officers, directors, employees, agents or any person who serves on behalf of the Company from any loss, claim, damage, or liability which such person incurs by reason of his performance of activities of the Company, provided they acted in good faith. The Company expects the risk of loss related to its indemnifications to be remote.

 

The Company’s investment portfolio may contain debt investments that are in the form of lines of credit and unfunded delayed draw commitments, which require the Company to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of June 30, 2014 the Company had two unfunded commitments under loan and financing agreements. As of December 31, 2013, the Partnership’s unfunded commitment under loan and financing agreements are presented below.

(2) The per share data for distributions is the actual amount of distributions paid or payable per share of common stock outstanding during the entire period..
(3) Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value or market value with all distributions reinvested. Distributions are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan.
(4) Total investment return on net asset value is calculated assuming a purchase at the offering price of $15.00 less the sales load of $0.45 per share paid by the shareholder on the first day and a sale at the net asset value on the last day of the period reported with all distributions reinvested. Total investment return on market value is calculated assuming a purchase at the offering price of $15.00 less the sales load of $0.45 per share paid by the shareholder on the first day and a sale at the current market price on the last day of the period reported with all distributions reinvested.

(8) For the period from May 8, 2014 to June 30,2014.

  

The following performance ratios and internal rate of return (“IRR”) (since inception) are presented for the Limited Partners as a single class, taken as a whole. The actual ratios of each individual investor may vary and are dependent upon the specific allocations of income and expense to such investor and the timing of capital transactions for such investor.

 

The net investment income (loss) ratio and the expense ratio are computed using the weighted average capital of the Limited Partners during the periods. The net investment income (loss) ratio does not include the effects of the carried interest allocation. The weighted average capital calculation reflects a measure of capital after each capital contribution, distribution or other significant change in capital at the end of each quarterly accounting period. The IRR was computed based on the actual dates of Limited Partners’ cash inflows (capital contributions) and outflows (cash and stock distributions), and the residual value of the Limited Partners’ capital accounts as from January 1, 2014 through May 7, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013.

In addition to the risks associated with our investments in general, there are unique risks associated with our investments in each of these entities. In this regard, The DRC Group (DRC) derives significantly all of its revenue from contracts with federal, state and local governments and governmental agencies. As a result, if it does not comply with the terms of a contract or with regulations or statutes, it could be subject to downward contract price adjustments or refund obligations or could in extreme circumstances be assessed penalties or be debarred or suspended from obtaining future contracts for a specified period of time. Any such suspension or debarment or other sanction could have an adverse effect on its business.

 

Similarly, the business and growth of FST Technical Services, LLC (FST) depends in large part on the continued trend toward outsourcing of certain services in the semiconductor and biopharmaceutical industries. There can be no assurance that this trend in outsourcing will continue, as companies may elect to perform such services internally. A significant change in the direction of this trend generally, or a trend in the semiconductor and biopharmaceutical industry not to use, or to reduce the use of, outsourced services such as those provided by it, could significantly decrease its revenues and such decreased revenues could have a material adverse effect on it or its results operations or financial condition.

 

The aggregate summarized financial information for DRC and FST as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 are presented below.

 

   As of      For the year ended 
Balance Sheet  December 31, 2013   Income Statement  December 31, 2013

Overview

 

Alcentra Capital Corporation (the “Company”, “Alcentra”, “ACC”, “we”, “us” or “our”) was formed as a Maryland corporation on June 4, 2013 as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Alcentra is managed by Alcentra NY, LLC (the “Adviser”, or “Alcentra NY”), registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) provides us with financial reporting, post-trade compliance, and treasury services. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Alcentra intends to elect to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), commencing with its tax year ending December 31, 2014, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue.

 

BNY Mellon-Alcentra Mezzanine III, L.P. (the “Partnership” or “Fund III”) is a Delaware limited partnership, which commenced operations on May 14, 2010. The Partnership was formed for the purpose of seeking current income and long-term capital appreciation by making investments in senior debt securities, subordinated debt securities, and common and preferred equity securities with equity rights or participations in U.S.-based middle market companies. BNY Mellon-Alcentra Mezzanine III (GP), L.P. (the “General Partner”), a Delaware limited liability company, is the General Partner of the Partnership. BNY Mellon-Alcentra Mezzanine Partners (the “Manager”), a division of Alcentra NY, LLC (“Alcentra Group”) and an affiliate of the General Partner, manages the investment activities of the Partnership. Alcentra NY, LLC is wholly owned by BNY Alcentra Group Holdings, Inc. which is wholly owned by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.

 

On May 14, 2014, Alcentra completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”), at a price of $15.00 per share. Through its initial public offering the Company sold 6,666,666 shares for gross proceeds of approximately $100,000,000. Alcentra used $94.2 million of the proceeds from the Offering to repay the Bridge Facility in full. On June 6, 2014, Alcentra sold 750,000 shares through the underwriters’ exercise of the overallotment option for gross proceeds of $11,250,000.

Immediately prior to the Offering, Fund III sold all of its assets other than its investment in the shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock of GTT Communications (the “Fund III Acquired Assets”) to the Company for $64.4 million in cash and $91.5 million in shares of the Company’s common stock. Concurrent with the acquisition of the Fund III Acquired Assets from Fund III, the Company also purchased for $29 million in cash certain additional investments (the “Warehouse Portfolio”) from Alcentra Group. The Warehouse Portfolio consisted of approximately $29 million in debt investments originated by the investment professionals of the Manager and purchased by Alcentra Group using funds under a warehouse credit facility provided by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation in anticipation of the Offering.

 

The Company entered into a senior secured term loan agreement (the “Bridge Facility”) with ING Capital LLC as lender that it used to fund the purchase of the Warehouse Portfolio and to fund the cash portion of the consideration paid to Fund III. In May 2014, the Company used $94.2 million of the proceeds from the Offering to repay the Bridge Facility in full.

 

The Company’s investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. The Company invests primarily in middle-market companies in the form of mezzanine and senior secured loans, each of which may include an equity component, and, to a lesser extent, by making direct equity investments in such companies

 

The Company is required to comply with certain regulatory requirements such as not acquiring any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets. Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Under the relevant SEC rules, the term “eligible portfolio company” includes all private operating companies, operating companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, and certain public operating companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of less than $250 million, in each case organized and with their principal of business in the United States.

 

Since Alcentra did not commence investment operations until May 8, 2014, the discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations through May 7, 2014 described in this section pertains to the historical operations of Fund III given that the Company acquired substantially all of Fund III’s investment portfolio. However, no liabilities of Fund III were assumed by the Company in connection with the acquisition of the Fund III Acquired Assets other than to fund $2.6 million under revolving lines of credit. As a result, you should be mindful of the foregoing facts when reviewing the discussion and analysis set forth in this section as well as in connection with reviewing the financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

 

As used in this section, the terms “we” and “us” refer to Fund III for the periods prior to the Offering and refer to Alcentra for the periods after the Offering.

 

Portfolio Composition and Investment Activity

*Includes the Excluded Assets. The aggregate cost basis and fair value of the Excluded Assets at December 31, 2013 was $2.4 million and $6.2 million, respectively.

 

At June 30, 2014, our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost and fair value was approximately $10.4 million and $10.5 million, respectively, and our largest portfolio company investment by amortized cost and fair value was approximately $18.5 million and $18.9 million, respectively. At December 31, 2013, our average portfolio company investment at amortized cost and fair value was approximately $8.5 million and $8.9 million, respectively, and our largest portfolio company investment by amortized cost and fair value was approximately $14.0 million and $14.0 million, respectively.

 

At June 30, 2014, 9.92% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates (subject to interest rate floors), such as LIBOR, and 90.08% bore interest at fixed rates. At December 31, 2013, 100% of our debt investments bore interest at fixed rates.

 

The weighted average yield on all of our debt investments as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was approximately 12.3% and 12.4%, respectively. The weighted average yield was computed using the effective interest rates for all of our debt investments, including accretion of original issue discount.

 

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had cash of $24.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

 

Investment Activity

 

During the period January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014, the Partnership invested $48.7 million were made and $15.7 million of repayments were received.

 

From May 8, 2014 to June 30, 2014, Alcentra invested $10.5 million in two new portfolio companies and $4.7 million of add on investments. We also received $2.3 million in paydowns. $1.8 million in a paydown of the DRC Deferred draw Facility and $500,000 as part of scheduled repayments from Southern Tech.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Partnership invested $5 million and $15.0 million, respectively. During the same period we received $0.1 million and $1.2 million in proceeds from repayments, respectively.

 

Our level of investment activity can vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.

Asset Quality

 

We currently do not use a rating system to monitor portfolio performance. As the portfolio grows in size, we would expect to implement a portfolio rating system.

 

Loans and Debt Securities on Non-Accrual Status

 

We will generally not accrue interest on loans and debt securities if principal or interest cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had no loans on non-accrual status.

 

Results of Operations

 

An important measure of our financial performance is net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income (loss), net realized gain (loss) and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Net investment income (loss) is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating expenses including interest on borrowed funds. Net realized gain (loss) on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio.

 

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

 

Revenues

 

We generate revenue in the form of interest income on debt investments and capital gains and distributions, if any, on investment securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. Our debt investments typically have a term of five to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest on our debt securities is generally payable quarterly. Payments of principal on our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt investments may pay interest in-kind, or PIK. Any outstanding principal amount of our debt securities and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at the maturity date. The level of interest income we receive is directly related to the balance of interest-bearing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. We expect that the total dollar amount of interest and any dividend income that we earn to increase as the size of our investment portfolio increases. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment fees, commitment, loan origination, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing significant managerial assistance and consulting fees. Total investment income for the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014 totaled $3.6  million and was primarily composed of interest income, including $0.9 million of PIK income. Total Investment income on the Partnership from January 1, 2014 through May 7, 2014 was $7.8 million and was primarily composed of $4.4 million of interest income, including $1.4 million of PIK income, $1.8 million of other income and $0.2 million of dividend income.

 

Total investment income for the three month period ended June 30, 2013 was $2.7 million, including $0.1 million of PIK interest and $0.08 million of other income.

 

Total investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $5.4  million including $0.4 million of PIK interest and $0.01 million of other income.

Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the Partnership for the period January 1, 2014 through May 7, 2014 totaled $0.8 million (inclusive of a management fee of $0.7 million).

 

Operating expenses for Alcentra for the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014 totaled $1.2 million (inclusive of a management fee of $0.5 million).

 

Operating expenses for the Partnership for the period April 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013 totaled $0.8 million (including $0.7 million in management fees).

 

Operating expenses for the Partnership for the six months ended June 30, 2013 totaled $1.5 million (inclusive of $1.4 million of management fees).

 

Operating expenses consist of base management fees, administrative services expenses, professional fees, and other general and administrative expenses.

 

The Partnership had entered into a credit agreement under which they could borrow an aggregate principal amount of $15 million for the financing of portfolio investments. Borrowings under the credit agreement were $10 million and $15.0 million as of May 7, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

Interest is charged at the Alternative Rate, defined as the higher of (a) the Federal Fund Rate and (b) the Overnight LIBOR Rate, plus 130 basis points. The interest rate, period to date, ranged from 1.39% to 1.40%. Fund III recorded interest and fee expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The average borrowings under the credit agreement for the period ended May 7, 2014 was $9,512,147 and for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of $5 million. The credit agreement, which was not assumed by Alcentra in connection with the acquisition of Fund III Acquired Assets, terminated on April 24, 2014.

 

For the period January 1, 2014 through May 7, 2014 interest expense was $0.050 million.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, interest expense was $0.033 million and $0.065 million.

 

Interest expense for April 1, 2014 through May 7, 2014 was $.009 million.

 

Interest expense for the period May 8, 2014 to June 30, 2014 was $0.18 million.

 

In connection with the Offering, Alcentra entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (“Credit Facility”) with ING Capital LLC, as administrative agent and lender. The Credit Facility initially provided for borrowings of up to $20.0 million at closing and with the addition of one additional eligible investment shortly thereafter, Alcentra’s borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility increased to $67.5 million. In addition, subsequent to the closing of the overallotment of the Offering, two additional lenders joined the Credit Facility increasing the size of the Credit Facility to $80 million.  The Credit Facility has a maturity date of May 8, 2018 and bears interest, at Alcentra’s election, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the one, three or six month LIBOR, as applicable, plus 3.25% or (ii) 2.25% plus the highest of (A) a prime rate, (B) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% and (C) three month LIBOR plus 1.0%.  The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in all of Alcentra’s portfolio investments, the equity interests in certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries and substantially all of its other assets. Alcentra is also subject to customary covenants and events of default typical of a facility of this type.

 

Under the Advisory Agreement, Alcentra will pay Alcentra NY, LLC (the “Adviser”) a base management fee calculated at an annual rate as follows: 1.75% of its gross assets (i.e., total assets held before deduction of any liabilities), including assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage and excluding cash and cash equivalents (such as investments in U.S. Treasury Bills), if its gross assets are below $625 million; 1.625% of its total gross assets if our gross assets are between $625 million and $750 million; and 1.5% of its gross assets if its assets are greater than $750 million. These various management fee percentages (i.e. 1.75%, 1.625% and 1.5%) would apply to ACC’s entire gross assets in the event its gross assets exceed the various gross asset thresholds.

 

In addition, ACC will pay the Adviser an incentive fee under the Advisory Agreement which consists of two parts. The first part, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20% of ACC’s “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter, subject to a hurdle rate of 2% per quarter (8% annualized), and is subject to a “catch-up” feature. The second part is calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or, upon termination of the Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and equals 20% of ACC’s aggregate cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of each calendar year, computed net of aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees.

  

The Adviser has agreed to waive its fees (base management and incentive fee), without recourse against or reimbursement by ACC, for the remainder of the quarter in which the Offering is completed and the subsequent four quarters to the extent required in order for ACC to earn a quarterly net investment income to maintain a targeted dividend payment on shares of common stock outstanding on the relevant dividend payment dates of 9.0% (to be paid on a quarterly basis).

 

Alcentra’s primary operating expenses will include the payment of fees to the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement and ACC’s allocable portion of overhead expenses under the Advisory Agreement, including payments under the administration agreement with the Administrator.

 

Aside from these operating expenses, ACC will bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of its operations and transactions, including:

 

  future offering expenses;

 

  the cost of calculating its net asset value;

 

  the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of its common stock and other securities;

 

  fees payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making investments and valuing investments (including third-party valuation firms);

 

  transfer agent and custodial fees;
     
  fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts (including attendance at industry and investor conferences and similar events);

 

  federal and state registration fees;

  

  any exchange listing fees;

 

35
 

 

  federal, state and local taxes;

  

  independent directors’ fees and expenses;

  

  brokerage commissions;

 

  costs of proxy statements, stockholders’ reports and notices;

  

  costs of preparing government filings, including periodic and current reports with the SEC;

  

  fidelity bond, liability insurance and other insurance premiums; and

  

  printing, mailing, independent accountants and outside legal costs and all other direct expenses incurred by either our Adviser or Alcentra in connection with administering Alcentra’s business, including the compensation of Alcentra’s Chief Accounting Officer and Chief Compliance Officer, and their respective staffs that will be based upon Alcentra’s allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its obligations under the Advisory Agreement.

For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2013, net investment income was $1.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively. 

 

Net Realized Gains and Losses

 

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, using the specific identification method, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized.

 

For the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014, there were $2.3 million in paydowns on investments, there were no realized gains.

For the three and six month period ended June 30, 2013 realized gains totaled $.04 million.

 

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) of Investments

 

Net change in unrealized appreciation primarily reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

 

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for the period January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014 totaled $3.0 million.

 

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for the period April 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014 totaled $(0.2) million.

 

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014 totaled $1.3 million.

 

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 were $1.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

Financial condition, liquidity and capital resources

 

Cash Flows from Operating and Financing Activities

 

The Partnership’s net cash used in operating activities amounted to $29.9 million for the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014, primarily in connection with the purchase of investments. Financing activities for the period from January 1, 2014 to May 7, 2014 provided cash of $39.9 million primarily from capital contributions received from limited partners.

 

For the period May 8, 2014 through June 30, 2014, Alcentra’s operating activities used cash of $106.1 million, primarily in connection with the initial purchase of investments. Financing activities for the same period provided $130.5 million primarily through the Offering.

 

The Partnership’s operating activities used cash of $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily in connection with purchases of investments. Financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 provided cash of $11.7 million primarily from capital contributions received from limited partners.

 

Our liquidity and capital resources are derived from the capital contributions and cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments, and income earned. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and other operating expenses we incur, as well as distributions to the Limited Partners. After the Offering, we expect to use these capital resources as well as proceeds from turnover within our portfolio, borrowings under the Credit Facility and from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment activities.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ.

 

Valuation of portfolio investments

 

We generally invest in illiquid loans and securities including debt and equity securities of middle-market companies. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by Alcentra’s board of directors. Such determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and estimates, although we engage independent valuation providers to review the valuation of each portfolio investment that does not have a readily available market quotation at least once annually. With respect to unquoted securities, we value each investment considering, among other measures, discounted cash flow models, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies and other factors.

 

Because there is not a readily available market for substantially all of the investments in our portfolio, we value most of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by Alcentra’s board of directors using a documented valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

 

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, Alcentra’s board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

 

Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment;

 

Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our senior management and the Adviser committee;

 

37
 

 

The audit committee of Alcentra’s board of directors then reviews these preliminary valuations;

 

At least once quarterly, independent valuation firms engaged by Alcentra’s board of directors will prepare valuations on a selected basis and submit reports to the board of directors; and

 

The board of directors then discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith, based on the input of Adviser, the independent valuation firm and the audit committee.

 

Revenue recognition

 

We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt securities with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the loan balance that generally becomes due at maturity, we do not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. We will not accrue interest on loans and debt securities if principal or interest cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest.

 

Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we then accrete or amortize such amounts using the effective interest method as interest income. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized loan origination is recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. For the period ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, 9.9% and 0%, or 3 and 0 of the loans in our portfolio bore interest at floating rates, respectively. In the future, we expect other loans in our portfolio will have floating rates. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, we did not engage in hedging activities.

 

Changes in interest rates will affect our cost of funding. Our interest expense will be affected by changes in certain published indices such as the LIBOR rate in connection with the Credit Facility.
