Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On December 28, 2018, CĪON Investment Corporation (“CIC”) decreased its public offering price from $9.50 per share to $9.45 per share, based on a net offering price of $8.98 per share (net of selling commissions and dealer manager fees), which closely approximates an estimated net asset value per share of $8.78.  This decrease in the public offering price will become effective on CIC’s January 2, 2019 weekly closing and will be first applied to subscriptions received from December 26, 2018 through January 1, 2019.  In accordance with CIC’s previously disclosed share pricing policy, certain of CIC’s directors determined that a reduction in the public offering price per share was warranted following a decline in CIC’s net asset value per share to an amount more than 2.5% below CIC’s then-current net offering price.

 

Although CIC decreased its public offering price on December 28, 2018 from $9.50 per share to $9.45 per share, CIC will maintain the amount of weekly cash distributions payable to shareholders of $0.014067 per share resulting in an annual distribution rate of 7.74% (based on the $9.45 per share public offering price).
