Generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We invest primarily in first and second lien senior secured loans and mezzanine debt issued by middle market companies in the United States. We define middle market companies as those with annual revenues between $10 million and $1 billion. We expect that individual investments will generally range between 0.5% and 3.0% of our total assets. Key criteria for investments include: • Strong management and operating teams • Leading, defensible business model and market position • Stable and consistent cash flow generation Dividend Information Current Annualized Yield3 (as of December 31, 2015): 9.70% Distribution Frequency: Monthly Tax Reporting: Form 1099 Key Facts (as of December 31, 2015) Inception Date: January 2011 Total Capital Raised4: $1,947.3 million Total Assets Under Management: $2,498.3 million Public Offering Price Per Share: N/A Number of Portfolio Companies: 125 Dividend Reinvestment Price: Prior Quarter Net Asset Value $8.97 Investment Objective Fact Sheet Performance Highlights Portfolio Return1 1 Year: 0.67% 2 Years: 8.32% 3 Years: 23.61% Asset Type % of Portfolio Senior Secured First Lien Debt 60.8% Senior Secured Second Lien Debt 15.1% Collateralized Securities 11.3% Equity/Other 8.8% Subordinated Debt 4.0% Portfolio Highlights (as of December 31, 2015)5 SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATION ONLY - NOT FOR USE AS SALES MATERIAL Note: Effective June 27, 2014, BDCA terminated its amended and restated total return swap arrangement with Citibank N.A. All data represented herein prior to June 27, 2014 was inclusive of exposure to loans under our total return swap arrangement. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. 1 Portfolio Return is calculated assuming a purchase of shares of common stock at the current net asset value on the first day that is held through the last day of the periods reported. Investments are subject to sales charges, which if included in the total return calculation would lower total returns. Distributions, if any, are assumed for purposes of this calculation to be reinvested at prices obtained under the distribution reinvestment plan. 2 Net Asset Value or NAV for BDCA is calculated quarterly using the total market value of BDCA’s assets (which may be their fair value, as determined by the Board), and subtracting the Fund’s liabilities. NAV per share is determined by taking BDCA’s NAV and dividing it by the number of shares outstanding on that date. 3 Annualized Distribution Yield is calculated based upon the dividend of $0.87 per share as of 12/31/15 divided by the most recent NAV per share of $8.97. 4 BDCA’s public offering of shares commenced on January 25, 2011 and continued through June 30, 2015. Since July 1, 2015, BDCA is no longer issuing new shares except for DRIP shares. 5 At fair market value.
