Forward-Looking Statements
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation:
our ability and experience operating a BDC or an SBIC, or maintaining our tax treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code;
our dependence on key personnel;
our ability to maintain or develop referral relationships;
our ability to replicate historical results;
the ability of OFS Advisor to identify, invest in and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria;
actual and potential conflicts of interest with OFS Advisor and other affiliates of OFSAM;
constraint on investment due to access to material nonpublic information;
restrictions on our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates;
limitations on the amount of SBA-guaranteed debentures that may be issued by an SBIC;
our ability to comply with SBA regulations and requirements;
the use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments;
competition for investment opportunities;
the ability of SBIC I LP and any other portfolio companies to make distributions enabling us to meet RIC requirements;
our ability to raise capital as a BDC;
the timing, form and amount of any distributions from our portfolio companies;
the impact of a protracted decline in the liquidity of credit markets on our business;
the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest;
uncertain valuations of our portfolio investments; and
the effect of new or modified laws or regulations governing our operations.
Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include, among others, those described or identified in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We have based the forward-looking statements on information available to us on the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the SEC, including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. The forward-looking statements and projections contained in this Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q are excluded from the safe harbor protection provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

For each investment, the Company has provided the spread over the reference rate and current interest rate in effect at September 30, 2017. Unless otherwise noted, all investments with a stated PIK rate require interest payments with the issuance of additional securities as payment of the entire PIK provision.

Note 1. Organization
OFS Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation, is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, for income tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code.
The Company’s objective is to provide stockholders with current income and capital appreciation through its strategic investment focus primarily on debt investments and, to a lesser extent, equity investments primarily in middle-market companies principally in the United States. OFS Advisor manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company.
In addition, OFS Advisor also serves as the investment adviser for HPCI, a Maryland corporation and a BDC. HPCI’s investment objective is similar to that of the Company.
The Company may make investments directly or through SBIC I LP, its investment company subsidiary licensed under the SBA SBIC Program. The SBIC Program is designed to stimulate the flow of capital into eligible businesses. SBIC I LP is subject to SBA regulatory requirements, including limitations on the businesses and industries in which it can invest, requirements to invest at least 25% of its regulatory capital in eligible smaller businesses, as defined under the SBIC Act, limitations on the financing terms of investments, capitalization thresholds that may limit distributions to the Company, and is subject to periodic audits and examinations of its financial statements.
In April 2017, the Company issued 3,625,000 shares of its common stock in a follow-on public offering at an offering price of $14.57 per share (the "Offering"), including shares purchased by the underwriters pursuant to their exercise of the over-allotment option. OFS Advisor paid all of the underwriting discounts and commissions, and a supplemental payment of $0.25 per share that represented the difference between the public offering price of $14.57 per share and the net offering proceeds of $14.82 per share, the Company's net asset value per share at the time of the Offering. All payments made by OFS Advisor in connection with the Offering are not subject to reimbursement by the Company. The Company received net proceeds from the Offering of $53,723.
Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation: The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, including ASC Topic 946, Financial Services–Investment Companies, the 1940 Act, Articles 6 or 10 of Regulation S-X, and the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring accruals and adjustments, necessary for fair presentation have been made. Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
Principles of consolidation: The Company consolidates majority-owned, investment company subsidiaries. The Company does not own any controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company, which would also require consolidation. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
Investments: The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework to measure fair value, and requires disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is determined through the use of models and other valuation techniques, valuation inputs, and assumptions market participants would use to value the investment. Highest priority is given to prices for identical assets quoted in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority is given to unobservable valuation inputs (Level 3). The availability of observable inputs can vary significantly and is affected by many factors, including the type of product, whether the product is new to the market, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market, and the current market conditions. To the extent that the valuation is based on less observable or unobservable inputs, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for financial instruments classified as Level 3 (i.e., those instruments valued using non-observable inputs), which comprise the entirety of the Company’s investments.
Changes to the valuation policy are reviewed by management and the Company’s Board. As the Company’s investments change, markets change, new products develop, and valuation inputs become more or less observable, the Company will continue to refine its valuation methodologies.

See Note 5 for more detailed disclosures of the Company’s fair value measurements of its financial instruments.
Investment classification:  The Company classifies its investments in accordance with the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are defined as investments in those companies in which the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities or has rights to maintain greater than 50% of board representation, “Affiliate Investments” are defined as investments in those companies in which the Company owns between 5% and 25% of the voting securities, and “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that neither qualify as Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.
Use of estimates: The preparation of 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 significantly from those estimates.
Reportable segments: The Company has a single reportable segment and single operating segment structure.
Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments not held for resale with original maturities of three months or less. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained with a member bank of the FDIC and, at times, such balances may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. Included in cash and cash equivalents was $52,345 and $17,659 held in a US Bank Money Market Deposit Account as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively.
Revenue recognition:
Interest income: Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and reported as interest receivable until collected. Interest income is accrued daily based on the outstanding principal amount and the contractual terms of the debt investment. Certain of the Company’s investments contain a payment-in-kind interest income provision (“PIK interest”). The PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in the applicable investment agreement, is added to the principal balance of the investment, rather than being paid in cash, and recorded as interest income, as applicable, on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company discontinues accrual of interest income, including PIK interest, when there is reasonable doubt that the interest income will be collected.
Loan origination fees, original issue discount (“OID”), market discount or premium, and loan amendment fees (collectively, “Net Loan Fees”) are recorded as an adjustment to the amortized cost of the investment, and accreted or amortized as an adjustment to interest income over the life of the respective debt investment using a method that approximates the effective interest method. When the Company receives a loan principal payment, the unamortized Net Loan Fees related to the paid principal is accelerated and recognized in interest income.
Further, the Company may acquire or receive equity, warrants or other equity-related securities (“Equity”) in connection with the Company’s acquisition of, or subsequent amendment to, debt investments. The Company determines the cost basis of Equity based on their fair value, and the fair value of debt investments and other securities or consideration received. Any resulting difference between the face amount of the debt and its recorded cost resulting from the assignment of value to the Equity is treated as OID, and accreted into interest income as described above.
Dividend income: Dividend income on common stock, generally payable in cash, is recorded at the time dividends are declared. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is accrued daily based on the the contractual terms of the preferred equity investment. Dividends on preferred equity securities may be payable in cash or in additional preferred securities, and are generally not payable unless declared or upon liquidation. Declared dividends payable in cash are reported as dividend receivables until collected. Non-cash dividends payable in additional preferred securities or contractually earned but not declared (“PIK dividends”) are recognized at fair value and recorded as an adjustment to the cost basis of the investment. At September 30, 2017, the Company had four preferred equity securities (Master Cutlery, LLC, Stancor, L.P., Southern Technical Institute, LLC, and TRS Services, LLC), with an aggregate amortized cost and fair value of $10,452 and $3,822, respectively, for which the fair value of the accrued PIK dividend for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $-0-. In addition, beginning June 30, 2017, the Company discontinued recognition of the cash preferred dividend from its investment in Master Cutlery, LLC. At December 31, 2016, the Company had one preferred equity security (Master Cutlery, LLC) with an amortized cost and fair value of $3,483, and $954, respectively, for which the fair value of the accrued PIK dividend for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was $-0-.
Fee income: The Company generates revenue in the form of management, valuation, and other contractual fees, that is recognized as the related services are rendered. In the general course of its business, the Company receives certain fees from portfolio companies which are non-recurring in nature. Such non-recurring fees include prepayment fees on certain loans repaid

prior to their scheduled due date, which are recognized as earned when received, and fees for capital structuring or advisory services from certain portfolio companies, which are recognized as earned upon closing of the investment.
Net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments: Investment transactions are reported on a trade-date basis. Unsettled trades as of the balance sheet date are included in payable for investments purchased on the consolidated balance sheets. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment. Investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by Company management under the supervision and review of the Board. After recording all appropriate interest, dividend, and other income, some of which is recorded as an adjustment to the cost basis of the investment as described above, the Company reports changes in the fair value of investments as net changes in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments in the consolidated statements of operations.
Non-accrual loans: When there is reasonable doubt that principal, cash interest, or PIK interest will be collected, loan investments are placed on non-accrual status and the Company will generally cease recognizing cash interest, PIK interest, or Net Loan Fee amortization, as applicable. When an investment is placed on non-accrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected, other than PIK interest that has been contractually added to the adjusted cost basis of the investment prior to the designation date, is reversed against current period interest income. Interest payments subsequently received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Interest accruals and Net Loan Fee amortization are resumed on non-accrual investments only when they are brought current with respect to principal and interest, and when, in the judgment of management, the investments are estimated to be fully collectible as to all principal and interest. At September 30, 2017, the Company had one loan (Community Intervention Services, Inc.) on non-accrual status with respect to all interest and Net Loan Fee amortization, with an amortized cost and fair value of $7,639 and $2,038, respectively. The Company's loan investment in My Alarm Center, LLC, which was on non-accrual status at June 30, 2017, was restructured and exchanged for a new class of preferred equity securities and common equity securities in July 2017. See Note 4 for further discussion. At December 31, 2016, the Company had one loan (Community Intervention Services, Inc.) on non-accrual status with respect to PIK interest and Net Loan Fees with an amortized cost and fair value of $7,639 and $5,393, respectively.
Income taxes: The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements, and timely distribute at least 90% of its ICTI to its stockholders. The Company has made, and intends to continue to make, the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which generally relieves the Company from U.S. federal income taxes.
Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to retain ICTI in an amount less than that which would trigger federal income tax liability under Subchapter M of the Code. However, the Company would be liable for a 4% excise tax on such income. Excise tax liability is recognized when the Company determines its estimated current year annual ICTI exceeds estimated current year distributions.
The Company may utilize wholly-owned holding companies taxed under Subchapter C of the Code when making equity investments in portfolio companies taxed as pass-through entities to meet its source-of-income requirements as a RIC. These “tax blocker” entities are consolidated in the Company’s GAAP financial statements and may result in federal income tax expense with respect to income derived from those investments. Such income, net of applicable federal income tax, is not included in the Company’s tax-basis net investment income until distributed by the holding company, which may result in temporary differences and character differences between the Company’s GAAP and tax-basis net investment income and realized gains and losses. Federal income tax expense from such holding-company subsidiaries is included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company evaluates tax positions taken in the course of preparing its tax returns to determine whether they are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold could result in greater and undistributed ICTI, income and excise tax expense, and, if involving multiple years, a re-assessment of the Company’s RIC status. GAAP requires recognition of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no uncertain income tax positions at September 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016. The current and prior three tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities.
Distributions: Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the declaration date. The timing of distributions as well as the amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Board each quarter. Distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with the Code. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment. Distributions paid in excess of taxable net investment income and net realized gains are considered returns of capital to stockholders.

The Company has adopted a DRIP that provides for reinvestment of any distributions the Company declares in cash on behalf of its stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Board authorizes, and the Company declares a cash distribution, then stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution.
The Company may use newly issued shares under the guidelines of the DRIP, or the Company may purchase shares in the open market in connection with its obligations under the plan.
Deferred debt issuance costs: Deferred debt issuance costs represent fees and other direct incremental costs incurred in connection with the Company’s borrowings. Deferred debt issuance costs are presented as a direct reduction of the related debt liability on the consolidated balance sheets except for deferred debt issuance costs associated with the Company’s line of credit arrangements, which are included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the related debt.
Goodwill: On December 4, 2013, in connection with the SBIC Acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $1,077, which is included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Goodwill is not subject to amortization. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that indicate goodwill may be impaired. There have been no goodwill impairments since the date of the SBIC Acquisition.
Intangible asset: On December 4, 2013, in connection with the SBIC Acquisition, the Company recorded an intangible asset of $2,500 attributable to the SBIC license. The Company amortizes this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 13 years. The Company expects to incur annual amortization expense of approximately $195 in each of the years ending December 31, 2025 and $145 in 2026.
The Company tests its intangible asset for impairment if events or circumstances suggest that the asset carrying value may not be fully recoverable. The intangible asset, net of accumulated amortization of $747 and $600 at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, is included in prepaid expenses and other assets.
Interest expense: Interest expense is recognized on an accrual basis.
Concentration of credit risk: Aside from its debt instruments, financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits at financial institutions. At various times during the year, the Company may exceed the federally insured limits. To mitigate this risk, the Company places cash deposits only with high credit quality institutions. Management believes the risk of loss is minimal.

Description
 
Effect of Adoption on the the financial statements
Standards that are not yet adopted
 
 
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers 

Supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of the standard is to recognize revenues to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. The standard defines a five step process to achieve this core principle. The standard must be adopting using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures)

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09, such that the guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company has completed its initial evaluation phase and has determined the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall

Modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Entities will have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value, and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. A practicality exception will apply to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement, and as such these investments may be measured at cost

Annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is required to record its investments at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income in accordance with ASC Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. Therefore, the adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements
ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows

Addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows

Annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU will have on the Company's consolidated financial position and disclosures.
ASU 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements

Makes minor corrections and clarifications that affect a wide variety of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, including an amendment to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, which clarifies the difference between a valuation approach and a valuation technique when applying the guidance of that Topic. The amendment also requires an entity to disclose when there has been a change in either or both a valuation approach and/or a valuation technique. The transition guidance for the ASC Topic 820 amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements

Annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. Early application is permitted for any fiscal year or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on the Company’s consolidated financial position or disclosures
ASU 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Amends certain narrow aspects of ASU 2014-09, including loan guarantee fees, impairment testing of contract costs, provisions for losses on construction-type and production type contracts, advertising costs, scope exception clarifications, and various disclosures

The effective date and transition requirements are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for ASU 2014-09 and is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment

Removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill

Annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2017-05, Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 620-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets

Defines "insubstance nonfinancial asset", unifies guidance related to partial sales of nonfinancial assets, eliminates rules specifically addressing sales of real estate, removes exceptions to the financial asset derecognition model, and clarifies the accounting for contributios of nonfinancial assets to joint ventures

The effective date and transition requirements are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for ASU 2014-09 and is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2017-08, Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities

Shortens the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium to the earliest call date. Securities held at a discount are to continue to be amortized to maturity

Annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the ASU in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. Additionally, in the period of adoption, an entity should provide disclosures about a change in accounting principle. The adoption of ASU 2017-08 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Note 3. Related Party Transactions
Investment Advisory and Management Agreement: OFS Advisor manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Investment Advisory Agreement was most recently re-approved on April 7, 2017. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, which are in accordance with the 1940 Act and subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s Board, OFS Advisor is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting research and diligence on potential investments and equity sponsors, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments, and monitoring investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. OFS Advisor is a subsidiary of OFSAM and a registered investment advisor under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.
OFS Advisor’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive to us and OFS Advisor is free to furnish similar services to other entities, including other BDCs affiliated with OFS Advisor, so long as its services to us are not impaired. OFS Advisor also serves as the investment adviser to CLO funds and other assets, including HPCI, a non-traded BDC with an investment strategy similar to the Company.
OFS Advisor receives fees for providing services, consisting of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% and based on the average value of the Company’s total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity) at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter. OFS Advisor has elected to exclude the value of the intangible asset and goodwill resulting from the SBIC Acquisition from the base management fee calculation.

The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears and was $1,310 and $3,726 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively and $1,120 and $3,324, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
The incentive fee has two parts. The first part ("Part One") is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such as commitment, origination and sourcing, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies but excluding fees for providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, any expenses payable under the Administration Agreement (as defined below) and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest or dividend feature (such as OID, debt instruments with PIK interest, equity investments with accruing or PIK dividend and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income is expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any incentive fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during such quarter. Accordingly, as a result of the Offering, the Part One incentive fee was reduced by $(593) for the three months ended June 30, 2017, determined by adjusting the value of net assets, as defined above, at March 31, 2017 by the daily weighted average of the Offering proceeds available to the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2017.
The incentive fee with respect to pre-incentive fee net income is 20.0% of the amount, if any, by which the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds a 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) hurdle rate and a “catch-up” provision measured as of the end of each calendar quarter. Under this provision, in any calendar quarter, OFS Advisor receives no incentive fee until the net investment income equals the hurdle rate of 2.0%, but then receives, as a “catch-up,” 100.0% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5%. The effect of this provision is that, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter, OFS Advisor will receive 20.0% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter in which the Company incurs a loss. For example, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, the Company will pay the applicable incentive fee even if the Company has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses. The Company’s net investment income used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s gross assets used to calculate the base management fee. These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months.
The second part ("Part Two") of the incentive fee (the “Capital Gain Fee”) is determined 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), commencing on December 31, 2012, and equals 20.0% of the Company’s aggregate realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from the date of the election to be a BDC through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less all previous amounts paid in respect of the Capital Gain Fee; provided that the incentive fee determined as of December 31, 2012, was calculated for a period of shorter than twelve calendar months to take into account any realized capital gains computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation for the period beginning on the date of the Company’s election to be a BDC and ending December 31, 2012.
The Company accrues the Capital Gain Fee if, on a cumulative basis, the sum of net realized capital gains and (losses) plus net unrealized appreciation and (depreciation) is positive. If, on a cumulative basis, the sum of net realized capital gains (losses) plus net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) decreases during a period, the Company will reverse any excess Capital Gain Fee previously accrued such that the amount of Capital Gains Fee accrued is no more than 20% of the sum of net realized capital gains (losses) plus net unrealized appreciation (depreciation). OFS Advisor has excluded from the Capital Gain Fee calculation any realized gain with respect to (1) the SBIC Acquisitions, and (2) the WM Asset Sale.
The Company incurred incentive fee expense of $1,090 and $2,249 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, which consisted entirely of Part One incentive fees (based on net investment income), and included a share issue adjustment of $(593) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, related to the Company's Offering. The Company incurred incentive fee expense of $817 and $2,407 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, which consisted of Part One incentive fees (based on net investment income) of $817 and $2,546, respectively. Part Two incentive fees (based upon net realized and unrealized gains and losses, or capital gains) were $-0- and $(139).

Note 5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by Company management under the supervision, and review and approval of the Board. These fair values are determined in accordance with a documented valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process as described below:
For each debt investment, a basic credit risk rating review process is completed. The risk rating on every credit facility is reviewed and either reaffirmed or revised by OFS Advisor’s investment committee.
Each portfolio company or investment is valued by OFS Advisor.
The preliminary valuations are documented and are then submitted to OFS Advisor’s investment committee for ratification.
Third-party valuation firm(s) provide valuation services as requested, by reviewing the investment committee’s preliminary valuations. OFS Advisor’s investment committee’s preliminary fair value conclusions on each of the Company’s assets for which sufficient market quotations are not readily available is reviewed and assessed by a third-party valuation firm at least once in every 12-month period, and more often as determined by the audit committee of the Company’s Board or required by the Company’s valuation policy. Such valuation assessment may be in the form of positive assurance, range of values or other valuation method based on the discretion of the Company’s Board.
The audit committee of the Board reviews the preliminary valuations of OFS Advisor’s investment committee and independent valuation firms and, if appropriate, recommends the approval of the valuations by the Board.
The Company’s Board discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of OFS Advisor, the audit committee and, where appropriate, the respective independent valuation firm.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair values are determined with models or other valuation techniques, valuation inputs, and assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Valuation inputs are organized in a hierarchy that gives the highest priority to prices for identical assets or liabilities quoted in active markets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of inputs in the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include: (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (ii) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. 
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information under the circumstances and may require significant management judgment or estimation. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’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 Company assesses the levels of the investments at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the measurement date. All of the Company’s investments, which are measured at fair value, were categorized as Level 3 based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations.There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.
Each quarter, for investments for which unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are not available, the Company assesses whether market quotations, prices from pricing services or bids from brokers or dealers (collectively, "Indicative Prices") are available, as well as the Company's ability to transact at such Indicative Prices. Investments for which sufficient Indicative Prices exist are generally valued consistent with such Indicative Prices. The Company periodically corroborates observed Indicative Prices with its actual investment purchase prices and/or other valuation techniques, such as the discounted cash flow method described below. Based on the corroborating analysis and the experience of the Company’s management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Company believes that these Indicative Prices may be reasonable indicators of fair value. In certain instances, the Company may partially rely on Indicative Prices when the Company determines such Indicative Prices are not of sufficient strength to rely on as the sole indication of fair value. In such instances, the Company applies a weighting factor to the Indicative Price and an alternative fair value analysis, typically a discounted cash flow analysis. The weighting factor placed on an Indicative Price is applied consistently based upon its relative strength, which considers, among other factors, and when available, the depth and liquidity of the Indicative Price. Weighting factors are not significant to the overall fair value measurement, but rather are applied to incorporate relevant market data when available.
In addition, each quarter, the Company assesses whether an arm’s length transaction occurred in the same security, including the Company's new investments during the quarter, the cost of which (“Transaction Prices”), may be considered a reasonable indication of fair value for up to three months after the transaction date.
Due to the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), and the non-binding nature of the Indicative Prices, and the general inability to observe the input for the full length of the term of an investment, the Company believes that these valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
In the absence of sufficient, actionable Indicative Prices or Transaction Prices, as an indication of fair value, and consistent with the policies and methodologies adopted by the Board, the Company performs detailed valuations of its debt and equity investments, including an analysis on the Company’s unfunded loan commitments, using both the market and income approaches as appropriate. There is no one methodology to estimate fair value and, in fact, for any one portfolio company, fair value is generally best expressed as a range of values. The Company may also engage one or more independent valuation firms(s) to conduct independent appraisals of its investments to develop the range of values, from which the Company derives a single estimate of value. Under the income approach, the Company typically prepares and analyzes discounted cash flow models to estimate the present value of future cash flows of either an individual debt investment or of the underlying portfolio company itself.
The primary method used to estimate the fair value of the Company's debt investments is the discounted cash flow method. However, if there is deterioration in credit quality or a debt investment is in workout status, the Company may consider other methods in determining the fair value, including the value attributable to the debt investment from the enterprise value of the portfolio company or the proceeds that would be received in a liquidation analysis. The discounted cash flow approach to determining fair value (or a range of fair values) involves applying an appropriate discount rate(s) to the estimated future cash flows using various relevant factors depending on investment type, including the latest arm’s length or market transactions involving the subject security, a benchmark credit spread or other indication of market yields, and company performance. The valuation based on the inputs determined to be the most reasonable and probable is used as the fair value of the investment, which may include a weighting factor applied to multiple valuation methods. The determination of fair value using these methodologies may take into consideration a range of factors including, but not limited to, the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance, financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment and anticipated financing transactions after the valuation date.
The Company changed the primary method used to value certain of its investments, primarily equity investments, as of December 31, 2016, from the income approach to the market approach, principally due to the nature of evidence available under the discounted cash flow method, and to better align with industry practice. The Company may also utilize an income approach when estimating the fair value of its equity securities, either as a primary methodology if consistent with industry practice or if the market approach is otherwise not applicable, or as a supporting methodology to corroborate the fair value ranges determined by the market approach.
Under the market approach, the Company estimates the enterprise value of portfolio companies. Typically, the enterprise value of a private company is based on multiples of EBITDA, net income, revenues, or other relevant basis. The valuation based on

the inputs determined to be the most reasonable and probable is used as the fair value of the investment, which may include a weighting factor applied to multiple valuation methods. In estimating the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the Company analyzes various factors consistent with industry practice, including but not limited to the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public exchanges for comparable securities, the portfolio company’s historical and projected financial results, applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and leverage levels, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment and anticipated financing transactions after the valuation date.
Application of these valuation methodologies involves a significant degree of judgment by management. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market or observable inputs existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions, or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded instruments. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company might realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded. The Company’s investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.
The following tables provide quantitative information about the Company’s significant Level 3 fair value inputs to the Company’s fair value measurements as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the tables below, according to the Company’s valuation policy, the Company may also use other valuation techniques and methodologies when determining the Company’s fair value measurements. The table below is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides information on the significant Level 3 inputs as they relate to the Company’s fair value measurements.

Changes in market credit spreads or the credit quality of the underlying portfolio company (both of which could impact the discount rate), as well as changes in EBITDA and/or EBITDA multiples, among other things, could have a significant impact on debt fair values, with the fair value of a particular debt investment susceptible to change in inverse relation to the changes in the discount rate but in tandem with changes in EBITDA and/or EBITDA multiples. Changes in EBITDA and/or EBITDA multiples, could have a significant impact on equity fair values, with the fair value of an equity investment susceptible to change in tandem with the changes in EBITDA and/or EBITDA and other multiples. Due to the wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

The net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations attributable to the Company’s Level 3 assets held at those respective period ends was $(5,425) and $(904), respectively. 
GAAP requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such value and the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value. It excludes from this requirement nonfinancial assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the required fair value disclosures provide only a partial estimate of the fair value of the Company. The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its other financial instruments such as cash, receivables and payables approximate the fair value of such items due to the short maturity of such instruments. The Company's SBA-guaranteed debentures are carried at cost and with their longer maturity dates, fair value is estimated by discounting remaining payments using current market rates for similar instruments and considering such factors as the legal maturity date. As of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s SBA debentures using Level 3 inputs is estimated at $153,265 and $159,708, respectively.

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings in the normal course of its business. Although the outcome of such litigation cannot be predicted with any certainty, management is of the opinion, based on the advice of legal counsel, that final disposition of any litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2017.
Additionally, the Company is subject to periodic inspection by regulators to assess compliance with applicable regulations related to being a BDC and SBIC I LP is subject to periodic inspections by the SBA.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not occurred. The Company believes the risk of any material obligation under these indemnifications to be low.
Note 7. Borrowings
SBA Debentures: The SBIC Program allows SBIC I LP to obtain leverage by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures, subject to issuance of a capital commitment by the SBA and customary procedures. These debentures are non-recourse to the Company, have interest payable semi-annually and a ten-year maturity. The interest rate is fixed at the time of SBA pooling, which is March and September of each year, at a market-driven spread over U.S. Treasury Notes with ten-year maturities.
Under present regulations of the SBIC Act, the maximum amount of SBA-guaranteed debt that may be issued by a single SBIC licensee is $150,000. An SBIC fund may borrow up to two times the amount of its regulatory capital, subject to customary regulatory requirements. For two or more SBICs under common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA-provided leverage cannot exceed $350,000. In connection with the SBIC Acquisition, the Company increased its total commitments to SBIC I LP to $75,000, which became a wholly-owned investment company subsidiary of the Company on December 4, 2013. During 2014, the Company fully funded its $75,000 commitment to SBIC I LP. As of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, SBIC I LP had fully drawn the $149,880 of leverage commitments from the SBA.
On a stand-alone basis, SBIC I LP held $248,247 and $247,512 in assets at September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively, which accounted for approximately 70% and 81% of the Company’s total consolidated assets, respectively. The SBIC assets can not be pledged under any debt obligation of the Company.

The Company received exemptive relief from the SEC effective November 26, 2013, which permits the Company to exclude SBA guaranteed debentures from the definition of senior securities in the statutory 200% asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act, allowing for greater capital deployment.
The effective interest rate on the SBA debentures, which includes amortization of deferred debt issuance costs, was 3.43% as of September 30, 2017. Interest expense on the SBA debentures was $1,295 and $3,846 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, which includes amortization of debt issuance costs of $95 and $286, respectively. Interest expense on the SBA debentures was $1,295 and $3,860 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, which includes amortization of debt issuance costs of $95 and $286, respectively.
The weighted-average fixed cash interest rate on the SBA debentures as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016 was 3.18%.
PWB Credit Facility: On November 5, 2015, the Company entered into a BLA with Pacific Western Bank, as lender, to provide the Company with the PWB Credit Facility, a $15,000 senior secured revolving credit facility scheduled to mature on November 6, 2017. The PWB Credit Facility is available for general corporate purposes including investment funding. The maximum availability of the PWB Credit Facility is equal to 50% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of eligible loans included in the borrowing base and otherwise specified in the BLA. The PWB Credit Facility is guaranteed by OFS Capital WM and secured by all of the Company’s current and future assets excluding assets held by SBIC I LP and the Company’s SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP partnership interests.
On October 31, 2016, the BLA was amended to, among other things (i) increase the maximum amount available under the PWB Credit Facility from $15 million to $25 million, (ii) extend the maturity date from November 6, 2017 to October 31, 2018, (iii) increase the fixed interest rate from 4.75% to 5.00% per annum, and (iv) exclude subordinated loan investments (as defined in the BLA) from the borrowing base. In addition, as of the amendment date, the Company will incur an unused commitment fee, payable monthly in arrears, equal to 0.50% per annum on any unused portion of the PWB Credit Facility in excess of $15,000, which is included in interest expense on the consolidated statement of operations. There were no advances under the facility prior to the October 31, 2016, amendment.
On August 9, 2017, the BLA was further amended to increase the maximum amount available under the PWB Credit Facility from $25 million to $35 million, and change the interest rate from a fixed per annum rate of 5.00% to a variable rate initially set at 5.00%, calculated as the Prime Rate plus a 0.75% margin, with a 5.00% floor. As of September 30, 2017, the interest rate on the unpaid principal balance of the PWB Credit Facility was 5.00%. All other principal covenants and terms under the PWB Credit Facility remained the same. The Company incurred deferred debt issuance costs of $100 in connection with the amendment.
The average dollar amount of borrowings outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, was $11,073 and $5,823, respectively. The effective interest rate, which includes amortization of deferred debt issuance costs, as of September 30, 2017, was 5.44% based maximum amount available under the PWB Credit Facility. Deferred debt issuance

costs, net of accumulated amortization, was $240 and $256 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs was $47 and $117 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. Availability under the PWB Credit Facility as of September 30, 2017, was $17,900 based on the stated advance rate of 50% under the borrowing base.
The BLA contains customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants such as information reporting requirements, a minimum tangible net asset value, a minimum quarterly net investment income after incentive fees, and a statutory asset coverage test. The BLA also contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change in investment advisor, and the occurrence of a material adverse change in our financial condition. As of September 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the applicable covenants.
Note 8. Federal Income Tax
The Company has elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. Maintenance of its status as a RIC, requires the Company requires annual distributions to its stockholders at least 90% of its ICTI, as defined by the Code. Additionally, to avoid a 4% excise tax on undistributed earnings the Company must distribute each calendar year the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income for such calendar year (ii) 98.2% of its net capital gains for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year, and (iii) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years and on which the Company paid no federal income tax. Maintenance of the Company's RIC status also requires adherence to certain source of income and asset diversification requirements.
The Company has met the required distribution, source of income and asset diversification requirements as of September 30, 2017, and intends to continue to meet these requirements. Accordingly, there is no liability for federal income taxes at the Company level. The Company’s ICTI differs from the net increase in net assets resulting from operations primarily due to differences in income recognition on the unrealized appreciation/depreciation of investments, income from Company’s equity investments in pass-through entities, PIK dividends that have not yet been declared and paid by underlying portfolio companies, capital gains and losses and the net creation or utilization of capital loss carryforwards.
The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of its fiscal year based upon its ICTI for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. If the tax characteristics of the Company’s $12,362 distributions paid during 2017 were determined as of September 30, 2017, approximately $3,314 would have represented return of capital to its stockholders.
The Company records reclassifications to its capital accounts related to permanent differences between GAAP and tax treatment related to goodwill amortization, excise taxes, and other permanent differences; and temporary differences between GAAP and tax treatment of realized gains and losses, income arising from Company’s equity investments in pass-through entities, PIK dividends, and other temporary differences. Reclassifications for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, were as follows:

Calculation is ending market value less beginning market value, adjusting for distributions reinvested at prices obtained in the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan for the respective distributions.
(2)
Calculation is ending net asset value less beginning net asset value, adjusting for distributions reinvested at the Company’s quarter-end net asset value for the respective distributions.
(3)
Based on net asset values as the end of the indicated and preceding calendar quarter for three-month periods, and net asset values as the end of the indicated and three preceding calendar quarters for nine-month periods.
(4)
The components of the distributions are presented on an income tax basis. The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of its fiscal year based upon its ICTI 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. If the tax characteristics of the Company’s distributions paid during 2017 were determined as of September 30, 2017, approximately $0.27 per share would represent a return of capital.

Annualized.
(6)
Portfolio turnover rate is calculated using the lesser of period-to-date sales and principal payments or period-to-date purchases over the average of the invested assets at fair value.
(7)
The issuance of common stock on a per share basis reflects the incremental net asset value change as a result of the Offering.

Represents the impact of different share amounts used in calculating per share data as a result of calculating certain per share data based on weighted average shares outstanding during the period and certain per share data based on the shares outstanding as of a period end or transaction date.
Note 10. Distributions
The Company intends to make distributions to its stockholders on a quarterly basis of substantially all of its net investment income. In addition, although the Company intends to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of assets legally available for such distributions, it may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
The Company may be limited in its ability to make distributions due to the BDC asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act. The Company’s ability to make distributions may also be affected by its ability to receive distributions from SBIC I LP, which is governed by SBA regulations. Consolidated cash and cash equivalents includes $52,245 held by SBIC I LP, which was not available for distribution at September 30, 2017.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, $132 of the total $12,363 paid to stockholders represented DRIP participation, during which the Company satisfied the DRIP participation requirements with the issuance of 9,554 shares at an average value of $13.89 per share at the date of issuance. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, $79 of the total $9,886 paid to stockholders represented DRIP participation, during which the Company satisfied the DRIP participation requirements with the issuance of 6,040 shares at an average value of $12.96 per share at the date of issuance.
Since the Company’s IPO, distributions to stockholders total $63,242, or $6.29 per share, on a cumulative basis.
Distributions in excess of the Company’s current and accumulated ICTI would be treated first as a return of capital to the extent of the stockholder’s tax basis, and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of its fiscal year based upon its ICTI 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. Each year, a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution is mailed to the Company’s stockholders. If the tax characteristics of the Company’s distributions paid during 2017 were determined as of September 30, 2017, approximately $0.27 per share of the Company’s distributions represented a return of capital to its stockholders, respectively.

We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company and have elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. Our investment activities are managed by OFS Advisor; and OFS Services, an affiliate of OFS Advisor, provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate. In exchange for these services we pay OFS Advisor a base management fee and an incentive fee and we pay OFS Services an administration fee. The base management fee, incentive fee, and the administration fee represents a substantial portion of our total expenses.
Our investment objective is to provide our stockholders with both current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments and, to a lesser extent, equity investments in middle-market companies in the United States. We believe that these middle-market companies represent a significant growth segment of the U.S. economy and often require substantial capital investments to grow. Middle-market companies have historically constituted the bulk of our portfolio companies since inception, and as of September 30, 2017. We believe that this market segment will continue to produce significant investment opportunities for us.
In April 2017, we issued 3,625,000 shares of our common stock in a follow-on public offering at an offering price of $14.57 per share (the "Offering"), including shares purchased by the underwriters pursuant to their exercise of the over-allotment option. OFS Advisor paid all of the underwriting discounts and commissions and an additional supplemental payment of $0.25 per share, representing the difference between the public offering price of $14.57 per share and the net offering proceeds of $14.82 per share, which also represented our NAV per share at the time of the Offering. All payments made by OFS Advisor in connection with the Offering are not subject to reimbursement by us. We received net proceeds from this Offering of $53.7 million
Our investment strategy includes SBIC I LP, a licensee under the SBA's SBIC program. The SBIC license allows SBIC I LP to receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, subject to the issuance of a leverage commitment by the SBA and other customary procedures. SBA leverage funding is subject to SBIC I LP’s payment of certain fees to the SBA, and the ability of SBIC I LP to draw on the leverage commitment is subject to its compliance with SBA regulations and policies, including an audit by the SBA. On a stand-alone basis, SBIC I LP held approximately $248.2 million and $247.5 million in assets at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which accounted for approximately 70% and 81% of our total consolidated assets, respectively.
We generate revenue in the form of interest income on debt investments, capital gains, and dividend income from our equity investments. Our debt investments typically have a term of three to eight years and bear interest at fixed and floating rates. As of September 30, 2017, floating rate and fixed rate loans comprised 73% and 27%, respectively, of our current debt investment portfolio at fair value; however, in accordance with our investment strategy, we expect that over time the proportion of fixed rate loans will continue to increase. We expect to make quarterly distributions, such that we distribute substantially all of our ICTI. In addition, although we intend to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually, out of assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
Further, we have elected to be taxed as a RIC under the Code. As a RIC, we are not required to pay corporate-level federal income taxes on any income that we distribute to our stockholders from our ICTI. We are required to recognize ICTI in circumstances in which we have not received a corresponding payment in cash. For example, we hold debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as issued with OID and debt instruments with PIK interest, and we must include in ICTI each year the portion of the OID and PIK interest that accrues for that year (as it accrues over the life of the obligation), irrespective of the fact the cash representing such income is received by us in that taxable year. The continued recognition of non-cash ICTI may cause difficulty in meeting the Annual Distribution Requirement. We may be required to sell investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital, or forgo new investment opportunities to meet this requirement. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.
We are permitted to borrow money from time to time within the levels permitted by the 1940 Act (which generally allows us to incur leverage for up to 50% of our asset base). We may borrow money when the terms and conditions available are favorable to do so and are aligned with our investment strategy and portfolio composition. The use of borrowed funds or the proceeds of preferred stock to make investments would have its own specific benefits and risks, and all of the costs of borrowing funds or issuing preferred stock would be borne by holders of our common stock. For a discussion of the risks associated with leverage, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to our Business and Structure" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. As a BDC, we may need to raise additional capital, which will expose us to

47


risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage. For additional overview information on the Company, see "Item 1. Business" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
The 1940 Act generally prohibits BDCs from making certain negotiated co-investments with certain affiliates absent an order from the SEC permitting the BDC to do so. On October 12, 2016, we received exemptive relief from the SEC to permit us to co-invest in portfolio companies with certain other funds managed by OFS Advisor (“Affiliated Funds”) in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors, subject to compliance with certain conditions (the “Order”). Pursuant to the Order, we are generally permitted to co-invest with Affiliated Funds if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transactions, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching by us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our investment objective and strategies.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Critical accounting policies are those that require management to make subjective or complex judgments about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Changes that may be required in the underlying assumptions or estimates in these areas could have a material impact on our current and future financial condition and results of operations.
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are those relating to revenue recognition and fair value estimates. Management has discussed the development and selection of each critical accounting policy and estimate with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. For descriptions of our revenue recognition and fair value policies, see Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1.–Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Revenue recognition. Our investment activities frequently involve the acquisition of multiple financial instruments or rights either in an initial transaction, or in subsequent or "follow-on" transactions, including amendments to existing securities. These financial instruments can include loans, preferred and common stock, warrants, or membership interests in limited liability companies. Acquired rights can include fixed or variable fees that can be either guaranteed or contingent upon operating performance of the underlying portfolio companies. Moreover, these fees may be payable in cash or additional securities. (Acquired rights and financial instruments together, "Instruments".)
The revenue recognized on these Instruments is a function of the fee or other consideration allocated to them, including amounts allocated to capital structuring fees, at the time of acquisition. Additionally, subsequent amendments to these Instruments can involve both
a determination as to whether the amendment is
of such significance to deem it the consummation of the initial investment transaction and the acquisition of new Instruments (i.e., a "significant modification"), or
a modification of those Instruments to be recognized over their remaining lives, and
an additional allocation of consideration among newly acquired Instruments.

48


These allocations are generally based on the relative fair value of the Instruments at the time of the transaction, a process involving fair value estimates which is also a critical accounting policy and significant estimate. Moreover, these allocations and determinations can differ between GAAP and federal income tax bases. Once determined, these allocations directly effect the discount/premium and yield on debt securities, the cost and net gains/losses on equity securities, and capital structuring fees recognized in the statements of operations; and ICTI. These allocations require an understanding of the terms and conditions of the underlying agreements and significant management judgment. The table below presents the impact to the initial cost bases of allocated consideration to acquired Instruments for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016, (in thousands):

Fair value estimates. As of September 30, 2017, approximately 83% of our total assets were carried on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. As discussed more fully in “Item 1.–Financial Statements–Note 2” GAAP requires us to categorize financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value according to a three-level valuation hierarchy. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted, active market prices for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to valuation techniques that require significant management judgment because one or more of the significant inputs are unobservable in the market place (Level 3). All of our assets carried at fair value are classified as Level 3; we typically do not hold equity securities or other instruments that are actively traded on an exchange.
As described in “Item 1.–Financial Statements–Note 5”, we follow a process, under the supervision and review of the Board, to determine these unobservable inputs used to calculate the fair values of our investments. The most significant unobservable inputs in these fair value measurements are the discount rates, EBITDA multiples and projected cash flows contractually due from the investment.
We consider a variety of factors in our determination of the discount rate to be applied to an investment including, among other things, investment type, LIBOR swap rate, indicative yields from independent third-party sources and the yield on our investment relative to indicative yields at the time of our investment (initial and subsequent investments) in the portfolio company.
We also consider a variety of factors in our determination of the EBITDA multiple to be applied to an investment including, among other things, the actual EBITDA multiple for the last arms-length transaction, the ratio of the portfolio company’s EBITDA multiple to the average of EBITDA multiples on comparable public companies ("Comparable Multiples"), and the change in Comparable Multiples and the financial performance of the underlying comparable public companies relative to the financial performance of the portfolio company.
For both the discount rate and the EBITDA multiple we also consider developments at the portfolio company since our investment including, but not limited to, trends in the portfolio company’s earnings and leverage multiple, and input from our independent third-party valuation firms. This process typically results in a single selected discount rate and/or EBITDA multiple for each investment.

The following table illustrates the sensitivity of our fair value measures to reasonably likely changes to the estimated discount rate and EBITDA multiple inputs used in our debt and equity investment valuations at September 30, 2017 (dollar amounts in thousands):

The table above presents the impact to our debt and equity investment fair value accounting measures by uniformly modifying our discount rate and EBITDA valuation inputs, as applicable. This discount rate sensitivity measures included in the table do not present the estimated effect of hypothetical changes in actual, observed interest rates, which would affect the cash flows from many of the underlying investments as they are indexed to LIBOR or the Prime Rate of interest, the operating environment of many of our portfolio companies, and other factors, as well as our estimates of the discount rate valuation input. The effect of hypothetical changes in actual, observed interest rates on our fair value measures is not subject to reasonable estimation.
Related Party Transactions
We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:
The Investment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor to manage our operating and investment activities. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement we have agreed to pay OFS Advisor an annual base management fee based on the average value of our total assets (other than cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts and including assets owned by any consolidated entity) as well as an incentive fee based on our investment performance. See “Item 1–Financial Statements–Note 3”.
The Administration Agreement with OFS Capital Services, an affiliate of OFS Advisor, to provide us with the office facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct our operations. See “Item 1–Financial Statements–Note 3.
A license agreement with OFSAM, the parent company of OFS Advisor, under which OFSAM has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “OFS.” Under this agreement, we have a right to use the “OFS” name for so long as OFS Advisor or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited license, we have no legal right to the “OFS” name. This license agreement will remain in effect for so long as the Investment Advisory Agreement with OFS Advisor is in effect.
OFS Advisor’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive to us and OFS Advisor is free to furnish similar services to other entities, including other BDCs affiliated with OFS Advisor, so long as its services to us are not impaired. OFS Advisor also serves as the investment adviser to CLO funds and other assets, including Hancock Park Corporate Income, Inc., a non-traded BDC with an investment strategy similar to the Company.

(1) The weighted average yield on our performing debt investments is computed as (a) the annual stated accruing interest on our debt investments at the balance sheet date, plus the annualized accretion of Net Loan Fees divided by (b) amortized cost of our debt investments, excluding assets on non-accrual basis as of the balance sheet date. Including assets on non-accrual, the weighted average yield of our debt investment portfolio was 11.17% and 11.72%, at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
The weighted average yield decreased from 12.08% at December 31, 2016 to 11.50% at September 30, 2017, primarily due to the deployment of cash during the six months ended September 30, 2017, including partial deployment of proceeds received from our April 2017 follow-on public offering, into $46.1 million of senior secured debt investments with a weighted average yield of 9.2% at September 30, 2017. The weighted average yield of our debt investments is not the same as a return on investment for our stockholders but, rather, relates to a portion of our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of our fees and expenses. There can be no assurance that the weighted average yield will remain at its current level.
As of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, floating rate loans at fair value were 73% and 66% of our debt investment portfolio, respectively, and fixed rate loans at fair value were 27% and 34% of our debt investment portfolio, respectively.

Acquired no-cost LLC membership interest in connection with a follow-on debt investment in an existing portfolio company valued at $0.3 million.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we converted a $1.8 million portion of our subordinated debt investment in Southern Technical Institute, LLC, with a principal amount of $1.8 million into equity units and warrants valued at $1.8 million. No gain or loss was recognized as a result of the conversion. In addition, we received equity in a portfolio company valued at $0.2 million as consideration for an amendment to a senior secured debt investment in the same portfolio company.
Our level of investment activity may vary substantially from period to period depending on various factors, including, but not limited to, the amount of debt and equity capital available 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.
We categorize debt investments into seven risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt. For additional information regarding our risk categories, see “Item 1. Business–Portfolio Review/Risk Monitoring” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The following table shows the classification of our debt investments portfolio by credit risk rating as of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016 (dollar amounts in thousands):

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we reclassified our subordinated debt investment in Community Intervention Service, Inc, designated non-accrual at September 30, 2017, from risk category 5 to risk category 6 with a fair value of $5.4 million at December 31, 2016, and reclassified our subordinated debt investment in Master Cutlery, LLC from risk category 4 to risk category 5 with a fair value $4.4 million at December 31, 2016. Each reclassification was primarily due

54


to a degradation in the underlying business of the portfolio company. In addition, we reclassified one debt investment from risk category 4 to risk category 3, with a fair value of $9.5 million at December 31, 2016. All other year changes in distribution of our debt investments across risk categories, were a result of new debt investments, the receipt of amortization payments on existing debt investments, repayment of certain debt investments in full, changes in the fair value of our existing debt investments within the categories, and other investment activity.
Non-Accrual Loans
At September 30, 2017, the Company had one loan (Community Intervention Services, Inc.) on non-accrual status with respect to all interest and Net Loan Fee amortization, with an amortized cost and fair value of $7,639 and $2,038, respectively. The Company's loan investment in My Alarm Center, LLC, which was on non-accrual status at June 30, 2017, was restructured and exchanged for a new class of preferred equity securities and common equity securities in July 2017. See "Item 1.–Financial Statements–Note 4" for further information. At December 31, 2016, we had one loan (Community Intervention Services, Inc.) on non-accrual status with respect to PIK interest and unamortized Net Loan Fees with an amortized cost and fair value of $7,639 and $5,393, respectively.
PIK and Cash Dividend Accruals
At September 30, 2017, we had four preferred equity securities (Master Cutlery, LLC, Stancor, L.P., Southern Technical Institute, LLC, and TRS Services, LLC), with an aggregate amortized cost and fair value of $10,452 and $3,822, respectively, for which the fair value of the accrued PIK dividend for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $-0-. In addition, beginning June 30, 2017, the Company discontinued recognition of the cash preferred dividend from its investment in Master Cutlery, LLC. At December 31, 2016, the Company had one preferred equity security (Master Cutlery, LLC) with an amortized cost and fair value of $3,483, and $954, respectively, for which the fair value of the accrued PIK dividend for the three months ended December 31, 2016 was $-0-.

Results of Operations
Key Financial Measures
The following is a discussion of the key financial measures that management employs in reviewing the performance of our operations.
Total Investment Income. We generate revenue in the form of interest income on debt investments and dividend income from our equity investments. Our debt investments typically have a term of three to eight years and bear interest at fixed and floating rates. As of September 30, 2017, floating rate and fixed rate loans comprised 73% and 27%, respectively, of our debt investment portfolio at fair value; however, in accordance with our investment strategy, we expect that over time the proportion of fixed rate loans will continue to increase. In some cases, our investments provide for PIK interest, or PIK dividends (meaning interest or dividends paid in the form of additional principal amount of the loan or equity security instead of in cash). We also generate revenue in the form of management, valuation, and other contractual fees, which is recognized as the related services are rendered. In the general course of business, we receive certain fees from portfolio companies which are non-recurring in nature. Such non-recurring fees include prepayment fees on certain loans repaid prior to their scheduled due date, which are recognized as earned when received, and fees for capital structuring services from certain portfolio companies, which are recognized as earned upon closing of the investment. Net Loan Fees are capitalized, and accreted or amortized over the life of the loan as interest income. When we receive principal payments on a loan in an amount that exceeds its amortized cost, we will also recognize the excess principal payment as income in the period it is received.
Expenses. Our primary operating expenses include interest expense due under our outstanding borrowings, the payment of fees to OFS Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement, our allocable portion of overhead expenses under the Administration Agreement and other operating costs described below. Additionally, we will pay interest expense on any outstanding debt under any new credit facility or other debt instrument we may enter into. We will bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, whether incurred by us directly or on our behalf by a third party, including:
the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;
the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of our common stock and other securities;
fees payable to third parties relating to making investments, including out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence and reviews of prospective investments;
transfer agent and custodial fees;
out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;
federal and state registration fees and any stock exchange listing fees;
U.S. federal, state and local taxes;
independent directors’ fees and expenses;
brokerage commissions;
fidelity bond, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and other insurance premiums;
direct costs, such as printing, mailing and long-distance telephone;
fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs;
costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and other applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws; and
other expenses incurred by either OFS Services or us in connection with administering our business.
Net Gain (Loss) on Investments. Net gain (loss) on investments consists of the sum of: (a) realized gains and losses from the sale of debt or equity securities, or the redemption of equity securities; and (b) net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on debt and equity investments. In the period in which a realized gain or loss is recognized, such gain or loss will generally be offset by the reversal of accumulated net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, and the net gain recognized in that period will generally be smaller. The accumulated net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on debt securities is also reversed when those investments are redeemed or paid off prior to maturity. In such instances, the reversal of accumulated unrealized appreciation or depreciation will be reported as a net loss or gain, respectively, and may be partially offset by the acceleration of any premium or discount on the debt security, which is reported in interest income, and any prepayment fees on the debt security, which is reported in fee income.

We do not believe that our historical operating performance is necessarily indicative of our future results of operations that we expect to report in future periods. We are primarily focused on investments in middle-market companies in the United States, including debt investments and, to a lesser extent, equity investments, including warrants and other minority equity securities, which differs to some degree from our historical investment concentration, in senior secured loans to middle-market companies in the United States. Moreover, as a BDC and a RIC, we will also be subject to certain constraints on our operations, including, but not limited to, limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and the Code. In addition, SBIC I L.P. is subject to regulation and oversight by they SBA. For the reasons described above, the results of operations described below may not necessarily be indicative of the results we expect to report in future periods.
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations can vary substantially from period to period for various reasons, including the recognition of realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation. As a result, annual comparisons of net increase in net assets resulting from operations may not be meaningful.

Interest income increased by $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016. The $1.2 million increase was due to a $1.1 million increase primarily attributable to a 19% increase in the average outstanding loan balance, and a $0.2 million increase in Net Loan Fee amortization, offset by a $0.1 million decrease primarily attributable to a 30 basis points decrease in the weighted average yield in our portfolio. Acceleration

57


of Net Loan Fees of $0.3 million and $0.1 million were included in interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Interest income increased by $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The $2.1 million increase was due to a $2.7 million increase primarily attributable to a 15% increase in the average outstanding loan balance, and a $0.1 million increase in accelerated Net Loan Fee amortization, offset by a $0.7 million decrease primarily attributable to a 42 basis point decrease in the weighted average yield in our portfolio. Acceleration of Net Loan Fees of $0.5 million and $0.4 million were included in interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Fee income increased by $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to an increase in prepayment fees and structuring fees of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, offset by a $0.1 million decrease in other fees. We recorded prepayment fees of $0.3 million resulting from $17.5 million of unscheduled principal payments during the three months ended September 30, 2017. We did not receive any unscheduled principal payments subject to prepayment fees during the three months ended September 30, 2016. We recorded structuring fees of $0.5 million in connection with the closing of $30.2 million of investments during the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to structuring fees of $0.1 million in connection with the closing of $9.5 million of investments during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
Fee income increased by $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to a $0.5 million increase in structuring fees, offset by a $0.2 million decrease in prepayment fees and $0.1 million in other fees. We recorded structuring fees of $0.7 million in connection with the closing of $48.7 million of investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to structuring fees of $0.2 million in connection with the closing of $15.7 million of investments during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. We recorded prepayment fees of $0.7 million resulting from $45.7 million of unscheduled principal payments during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to prepayment fees of $0.9 million resulting from $24.8 million of unscheduled principal payments we recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased over the corresponding periods in the prior year due to an increase in borrowings under our PWB Credit Facility. The average dollar amount of borrowings outstanding under the PWB Credit Facility during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, was $11.1 million and $5.8 million, respectively. There were no borrowings under the PWB Credit Facility during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Management fee expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, increased over the corresponding periods in the prior year due to an increase in our average total assets, primarily due to a increase in net investment activity, including deployment of funds from the Offering.
Incentive fee expense increased by $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016, due to an increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to an increase in the average investment balance as a result of net investment activity, including deployment of funds from the Offering.
Incentive fee expense decreased by $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to a $0.6 million decrease in Part One incentive fees, due to a share issuance adjustment related to the Offering, which raised the hurdle rate to a level that was not exceeded in the second quarter because the Offering Proceeds were not fully deployed, offset by an increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income due to an increase in net investment activity, including additional deployment of funds from the Offering, and an

58


increase in the accrued Capital Gains Fee. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we did not incur a Capital Gains Fee, compared to a Capital Gains Fee of $(0.1) million recorded during nine months ended September 30, 2016, which represents the reversal of the accrued Capital Gains Fee at December 31, 2015.

Three and nine months ended September 30, 2017
We recognized net losses of $1.7 million on senior secured debt during the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily as a result of the negative impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors. In addition, a previously recognized cumulative unrealized loss of $5.0 million at June 30, 2017, on My Alarm Center, LLC was realized during the three months ended September 30, 2017 upon restructure of the senior secured debt investment into preferred and common equity interests.
We recognized net losses of $5.9 million on senior secured debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, primarily as a result of the negative impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, including a realized loss of $5.0 million on our senior secured debt investment in My Alarm Center, LLC recognized upon restructuring in the third quarter of 2017. We held this investment from the fourth quarter of 2015 and recognized unrealized appreciation of $0.2 million and $-0-during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
We recognized net losses of $2.3 million on subordinated debt during the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily as a result of the negative impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, including an unrealized depreciation of $1.2 million recognized on our subordinated debt investment in Community Intervention Services, Inc., which was placed on non-accrual during 2016.
We recognized net losses of $4.7 million on subordinated debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, primarily as a result of the net negative impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, including an unrealized depreciation of $3.4 million recognized on our subordinated debt investment in Community Intervention Services, Inc., which was placed on non-accrual during 2016.
We recognized net gains of $0.3 million on preferred equity investments for the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily as a result of the positive impact from changes to EBITDA multiples used in our valuations as a result of pending transactions, offset by the net negative impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors. Included in net gains of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, was a realized gain of $3.6 million we recognized upon exit of a preferred equity investment. We recognized cumulative unrealized appreciation of approximately $3.6 million on this investment through June 30, 2017, which resulted in a net gain of $-0- during the three months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, previously recognized cumulative unrealized depreciation of $0.3 million at June 30, 2017, on our preferred equity investments in My Alarm Center, LLC, was realized upon restructuring.

Included in the net loss was a realized gain of $0.9 million from the exit of a common equity investment, for which we had recognized cumulative unrealized appreciation of $0.5 million through December 31, 2016, resulting in a net gain of $0.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Three and nine months ended September 30, 2016
We recognized net losses of $0.4 million on senior secured debt during the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, offset by the impact of changes to certain market loan indices, and the impact of certain investments moving closer to their expected exit events.
We recognized net gains of $0.9 million on senior secured debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily as a result of the impact of changes to certain market loan indices, and by the impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, partially offset by the pay-off of certain senior secured debt investments.
We recognized net losses of $0.2 million on subordinated debt during the three months ended September 30, 2016, principally as a result of the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors.
We recognized net losses of $0.3 million on subordinated debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, principally due to the pay-off of certain subordinated debt investments, offset by the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors.
We recognized net losses of $0.5 million on preferred equity investments for the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily attributable to the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, offset primarily by the impact of certain investments moving closer to their expected exit events.
We recognized net losses of $4.6 million on preferred equity investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily attributable to the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, offset primarily by the impact of certain investments moving closer to their expected exit events.
We recognized net gains of $0.1 million on common equity and warrant investments for the three months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to the net impact of certain investments moving closer to their expected exit events, offset by the negative net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors.
We recognized net gains of $2.6 million on common equity and warrant investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors and the net impact of certain investments moving closer to their expected exit events. In addition, we realized gains of $2.6 million from the redemption of an equity investment. We held this investment from the first quarter of 2014 and recognized unrealized appreciation of $2.1 million and $0.5 during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. There was no net gain during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, on this transaction.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We manage the liquidity of SBIC I LP ("SBIC Liquidity") separately from our general corporate liquidity ("Corporate Liquidity"). At September 30, 2017, our Corporate Liquidity and our SBIC Liquidity includes cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 million and $52.2 million, respectively. Additionally, we had $17.9 million in Corporate Liquidity available through our PWB Credit Facility at September 30, 2017. Transfers from SBIC Liquidity to Corporate Liquidity are limited by SBA regulations to a statutory measure of undistributed accumulated earnings, and our ability to transfer liquidity from Corporate Liquidity to SBIC Liquidity is currently limited to capital contributions to SBIC I LP. Additionally, the use of SBIC Liquidity is limited by regulation; see "Item 1.–Business–Small Business Investment Company Regulations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we transferred $3.1 million from from SBIC Liquidity to Corporate Liquidity. At September 30, 2017, $2.5 million cash and cash equivalents were available to transfer from SBIC Liquidity to Corporate Liquidity.
Sources and Uses of Cash and Cash Equivalents
We generate cash through operations from net investment income and the net liquidation of portfolio investments, and use cash in our operations in the net purchase of portfolio investments. Significant variations may exist between net investment income and cash from net investment income, primarily due to the recognition of non-cash investment income, including certain Net Loan Fee amortization, PIK interest, and PIK dividends, which generally will not be fully realized in cash until we exit the investment. As discussed in "Item 1.–Financial Statements–Note 3", we pay OFS Advisor a quarterly incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income, which includes investment income that we have not received in cash. In addition, we must distribute substantially all our taxable income, which approximates, but will not always equal, the cash we generate from net investment income to maintain our RIC tax treatment. Historically, our distributions have been in excess of taxable income,

60


and we have limited history of net taxable gains. We also obtain cash to fund investments or general corporate activities from the issuance of securities and our revolving line of credit. These principal sources and uses of cash and liquidity are presented below (in thousands):

At September 30, 2017, we held cash and cash equivalents of $53.9 million, an increase of $36.2 million from December 31, 2016.
Cash from net investment income
Net cash from net investment income increased $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The net increase to net cash from investment income was principally due to an increase in interest income, common dividends, prepayment and structuring fees collected, and a decrease in cash paid for incentive fees, which primarily resulted from a share issuance adjustment related to the Offering , offset by a decrease in preferred equity cash dividends collected, an increase in cash paid for management fees, primarily due to a increase in net investment activity, including additional deployment of funds from the Offering, and an increase in cash interest paid on our PWB Credit Facility.
Cash received from realized gains
Cash received on realized gains may differ from realized gains in the statement of operations due to delays in the receipt of sale proceeds related to escrow and earn-out provisions in the investment sales transactions.
Net purchases and originations of portfolio investments excluding cash received from realized gains
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, net purchases and originations of portfolio investments were primarily due to $114.7 million of cash we used to purchase portfolio investments, offset by $90.0 million of cash we received from amortized cost repayments on our portfolio investments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, net purchases were due to $40.2 million of cash we used to purchase portfolio investments. These cash purchases were offset by $37.1 million of cash we received from principal payments on our portfolio investments.
Proceeds from common stock offering, net of expenses
In April 2017, we issued 3,625,000 shares of our common stock in a follow-on public offering at an offering price of $14.57 per share, including shares purchased by the underwriters pursuant to their exercise of the over-allotment option. OFS Advisor paid all of the underwriting discounts and commissions and an additional supplemental payment of $0.25 per share, representing the difference between the public offering price of $14.57 per share and the net offering proceeds of $14.82 per share, which also represented our NAV per share at the time of the Offering. All payments made by OFS Advisor in connection with the Offering are not subject to reimbursement by us. We received net proceeds from this Offering of $53.7 million
SBA Debentures
SBIC I LP has a SBIC license that allowed it to obtain leverage by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures, subject to issuance of a capital commitment by the SBA and customary procedures. These debentures are non-recourse to us, and bear interest payable semi-annually, and each debenture has a maturity date that is ten years following issuance. The interest rate was fixed at the first pooling date after issuance, which was March and September of each year, at a market-driven spreads over U.S. Treasury Notes with ten-year maturities. SBA regulations currently limit the amount that an SBIC may borrow up to a maximum of $150 million when it has at least $75 million in regulatory capital, receives a leverage commitment from the SBA and has been through an examination by the SBA subsequent to licensing. For two or more SBICs under common control, the

61


maximum amount of outstanding SBA-provided leverage cannot exceed $350 million. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, SBIC I LP had fully drawn the $149.9 million of leverage commitments from the SBA.
In January 2015, we filed an application with the SBA for a second SBIC license, which, if approved, would provide up to $75.0 million in additional SBA debentures for the funding of our future investments upon our contribution of at least $37.5 million in additional regulatory capital and subject to the issuance of a leverage commitment by the SBA and other customary procedures. There can be no assurance as to whether or when this application will be approved by the SBA.
On a stand-alone basis, SBIC I LP held $248.2 million, and $247.5 million in assets at September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively, which accounted for approximately 70% and 81% of the Company’s total consolidated assets, respectively.
SBIC I LP is periodically examined and audited by the SBA’s staff to determine its compliance with SBA regulations. If SBIC I LP fails to comply with applicable SBA regulations, the SBA could, depending on the severity of the violation, limit or prohibit SBIC I LP’s use of debentures, declare outstanding debentures immediately due and payable, and/or limit SBIC I LP from making new investments.
PWB Credit Facility
The PWB Credit Facility is available for general corporate purposes including investment funding and is scheduled to mature on October 31, 2018. In addition, we incur an unused commitment fee, payable monthly in arrears, equal to 0.50% per annum on any unused portion of the PWB Credit Facility in excess of $15.0 million.
On August 9, 2017, the BLA was amended to increase the maximum amount available under the PWB Credit Facility from $25 million to $35 million, and change the interest rate from a fixed per annum rate of 5.00% to a variable rate initially set at 5.00%, calculated as the prime plus a 0.75% margin, with a 5.00% floor. All other principal covenants and terms under the PWB Credit Facility remained the same. We incurred deferred debt issuance costs of $0.1 million in connection with the amendment.
As of September 30, 2017, we had $17.1 million outstanding at a variable interest rate of 5.00% per annum, and $17.9 million available for use under the PWB Credit Facility.
The PWB Credit Facility is guaranteed by OFS Capital WM and secured by all of our current and future assets, excluding assets held by SBIC I LP and our SBIC I LP and SBIC I GP partnership interests.
The BLA contains customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants such as information reporting requirements, a minimum tangible net asset value, a minimum quarterly net investment income after incentive fees, and a statutory asset coverage test. The BLA also contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change in investment advisor, and the occurrence of a material adverse change in our financial condition. As of September 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the applicable covenants.    
Other Liquidity Matters 
We expect to fund the growth of our investment portfolio utilizing borrowings under SBA debentures, follow-on equity offerings, and issuances of senior securities or future borrowings to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. We cannot assure stockholders that our plans to raise capital will be successful. In addition, we intend to distribute to our stockholders substantially all of our taxable income in order to satisfy the requirements applicable to RICs under Subchapter M of the Code. Consequently, we may not have the funds or the ability to fund new investments or make additional investments in our portfolio companies. The illiquidity of our portfolio investments may make it difficult for us to sell these investments when desired and, if we are required to sell these investments, we may realize significantly less than their recorded value.
In addition, as a BDC, we generally will be required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities (including SBIC I LP’s SBA-guaranteed debt), to total senior securities, which include all of our borrowings (excluding SBA-guaranteed debt) and any outstanding preferred stock (of which we had none at September 30, 2017), of at least 200%. We received an exemptive order from the SEC to permit us to exclude the debt of SBIC I LP guaranteed by the SBA from the definition of Senior Securities in the statutory 200% asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow. To fund growth in our investment portfolio in the future, we anticipate the need to raise additional capital from various sources, including the equity markets and the securitization or other debt-related markets, which may or may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.

Excludes commitments to extend credit to our portfolio companies.
(2)
The PWB Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on October 31, 2018. The SBA debentures are scheduled to mature between September 2022 and 2025.
We have entered into contracts with third parties under which we have material future commitments—the Investment Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which OFS Advisor has agreed to serve as our investment adviser, and the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which OFS Services has agreed to furnish us with the facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations.
We may become a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. We had $4.5 million of total unfunded commitments to three portfolio companies at September 30, 2017.
Distributions
We are taxed as a RIC under the Code. Generally, a RIC is entitled to deduct dividends it pays to its stockholders from its income to determine “taxable income.” Taxable income includes our taxable interest, dividend and fee income, and taxable net capital gains. Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized. In addition, gains realized for financial reporting purposes may differ from gains included in taxable income as a result of our election to recognize gains using installment sale treatment, which generally results in the deferment of gains for tax purposes until notes or other amounts, including amounts held in escrow, received as consideration from the sale of investments are collected in cash. Taxable income includes non-cash income, such as changes in accrued and reinvested interest and dividends, which includes contractual PIK interest, and the amortization of discounts and fees. Cash collections of income resulting from contractual PIK interest and dividends or the amortization of discounts and fees generally occur upon the repayment of the loans or debt securities that include such items. Non-cash taxable income is reduced by non-cash expenses, such as realized losses and depreciation, and amortization expense.
Our board of directors maintains a variable dividend policy with the objective of distributing four quarterly distributions in an amount not less than 90-100% of our taxable quarterly income or potential annual income for a particular year. In addition, at the end of the year, we may also pay an additional special dividend, or fifth dividend, such that we may distribute approximately all of our annual taxable income in the year it was earned, while maintaining the option to spill over our excess taxable income to a following year. Each year, a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the source of the distribution is mailed to the Company’s stockholders. Generally, a RIC is entitled to deduct dividends it pays to its stockholders from its income to determine “taxable income.” Taxable income includes our taxable interest, dividend and fee income, and taxable net capital gains. Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized. In addition, gains realized for financial reporting purposes may differ from gains included in taxable income as a result of our election to recognize gains using installment sale treatment, which generally results in the deferment of gains for tax purposes until notes or other amounts, including amounts held in escrow, received as consideration from the sale of investments are collected in cash. Taxable income includes non-cash income, such as changes in accrued and reinvested interest and dividends, which includes contractual PIK interest, and the amortization of discounts and fees. Cash collections of income resulting from contractual PIK interest and dividends or the amortization of discounts and fees generally occur upon the repayment of the loans or debt securities that include such items. Non-cash taxable income is reduced by non-cash expenses, such as realized losses and depreciation, and

63


amortization expense. If the tax characteristics of the distributions paid during fiscal 2017 were determined as of September 30, 2017, we estimate that approximately $0.27 per share would represent a return of capital.
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, 2017, 73% of our debt investments bore interest at floating interest rates, at fair value. The interest rates on our debt investments bearing floating interest rates are usually based on a floating LIBOR, and the debt investments typically contain interest rate re-set provisions that adjust applicable interest rates to current market rates on a periodic basis. A significant portion of our loans that are subject to the floating LIBOR rates are also subject to a minimum base rate, or floor, that we charge on our loans if the current market rates are below the respective floors. As of September 30, 2017, 89% of our floating rate loans were based on a floating LIBOR (not subject to a floor).
Our outstanding SBA debentures bear interest at a fixed rate. Our PWB Credit Facility has a floating interest rate provision based on the Prime Rate with a 5.0% interest rate floor. We expect that other credit facilities into which we may enter in the future may have floating interest rate provisions.
Assuming that the interim and unaudited consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity, the following tables show the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (in thousands).

(1) Our PWB Credit Facility contains a 5.0% interest rate floor, and therefore a decline in the Prime Rate would not impact interest expense.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Controls and Procedures 
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing evaluation of our disclosure controls and

64


procedures as of September 30, 2017, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 
As previously disclosed in Item 9A of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, management concluded that there was a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related the design and effectiveness of controls over certain key assumptions and underlying data used in our investment valuations. In response to the material weakness identified, management developed and implemented a remediation plan to address the underlying causes of the material weakness.
The remediation plan included (1) a change in the primary method used to value certain investments, primarily equity investments, from the discounted cash flow method to the market approach as of December 31, 2016, and (2) the development and formal documentation of new controls and procedures to objectively validate and document key inputs and assumptions used in developing our fair value estimates.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we implemented the new internal control procedures described above to address the previously identified material weakness as of December 31, 2016. After completing our testing of the design and operating effectiveness of our control enhancements, we concluded that we have remediated the previously identified material weakness.
Other than as described above, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
 
We, OFS Advisor and OFS Services, are not currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings threatened against us as of September 30, 2017. From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Furthermore, third parties may try to seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of our portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
Investing in our common stock may be speculative and involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our financial statements, and the related notes, schedules and exhibits, you should carefully consider the risk factors described in "Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
 
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which should be read together with the other risk factors and information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other reports filed with the SEC.
 
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
During the three month period ended September 30, 2017, we issued 3,439 shares of common stock to stockholders in connection with our DRIP. These issuances were not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The aggregate value of the shares of our common stock issued under our distribution reinvestment plan was approximately $49,000.
