RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Set forth below are the results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.
Investment Income
Investment income for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 was $15.2 million and $41.0 million, respectively, and was attributable to $13.9 million and $37.1 million from senior secured loans and $1.3 million and $3.9 million from second lien secured debt and subordinated debt. This compares to investment income for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, which was $10.8 million and $30.9 million, respectively, and was attributable to $9.0 million and $26.0 million from senior secured loans and the remainder from second lien secured debt and subordinated debt. The increase in investment income compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the growth of our portfolio.
Expenses
Expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $7.0 million and $18.0 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $1.8 million and $5.1 million, incentive fee totaled $1.4 million (including $0.2 million on realized gains and $0.4 million on unrealized gains accrued but not payable) and $3.4 million (including $0.2 million on realized gains and $0.9 million on unrealized gains accrued but not payable), our multi-currency, senior secured revolving credit facility, or the Credit Facility, expenses totaled $2.5 million and $6.3 million, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.2 million and $3.0 million and provision for taxes totaled $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. This compares to expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, which totaled $4.0 million and $11.7 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $1.3 million and $3.6 million, incentive fee totaled $0.5 million and $1.3 million, Credit Facility expenses totaled $1.3 million and $4.2 million (including $0.9 million of amendment expenses) and general and administrative expenses totaled $0.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively. The increase in expenses compared with the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to increases in base management and incentive fees as a result from the growth of our portfolio.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income totaled $8.2 million and $23.0 million, or $0.25 and $0.78 per share, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Core net investment income, a non-GAAP financial measure, totaled $8.9 million and $24.2 million, or $0.27 and $0.82 per share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. Net investment income totaled $6.8 million and $19.2 million, or $0.26 and $0.72 per share, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The increase in net investment income compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the growth of our portfolio.
Net Realized Gains or Losses
Sales and repayments of investments for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 totaled $172.9 million and $314.8 million and net realized gains totaled $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively. Sales and repayments of investments totaled $40.3 million and $97.1 million and realized gains (losses) totaled $0.2 million and $(2.0) million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. The change in realized gains/losses was primarily due to changes in the market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized.
Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments and Credit Facility
For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, we reported a net change in unrealized appreciation on investments of $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, we reported a net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments of $6.1 million and $(0.1) million, respectively. As of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, our net unrealized appreciation on investments totaled $1.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized appreciation on our investments was driven primarily by changes in capital market conditions, the financial performance of certain portfolio companies and the reversal of unrealized depreciation (appreciation) on investments that were sold.
For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, our Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized appreciation of $1.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, our Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized depreciation of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, net unrealized (appreciation) depreciation on our Credit Facility totaled $(2.5) million and $0.5 million, respectively. The change in net unrealized depreciation compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital markets.
Net Change in Net Assets Resulting from Operations
Net change in net assets resulting from operations totaled $9.3 million and $25.5 million, or $0.29 and $0.86 per share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017. This compares to a net change in net assets resulting from operations which totaled $13.4 million and $17.6 million, or $0.50 and $0.66 per share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease/increase in the change in net assets from operations compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to changes in portfolio investment values during the reporting periods.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity and capital resources are derived from public offerings, our Credit Facility, cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments, and income earned. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our Credit Facility, the rotation of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives.
As of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, we had $291.2 million and $232.9 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, respectively. The Credit Facility had an interest rate of 3.00% and 2.57%, as of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, respectively, excluding the undrawn commitment fees of 0.375%. The annualized weighted average cost of debt for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment and amendment costs on the Credit Facility, was 3.02% and 5.01%, respectively.
As of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, we had $83.8 million and $117.1 million of unused borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility, respectively, subject to the regulatory restrictions.
At June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, we had cash equivalents of $49.0 million and $28.9 million, respectively, available for investing and general corporate purposes. We believe our liquidity and capital resources are sufficient to take advantage of market opportunities.
Our operating activities used cash of $93.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2017, and our financing activities provided cash of $113.8 million for the same period. Our operating activities used cash primarily for our investment activities and our financing activities provided cash primarily from our recent equity offering and net borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Our operating activities used cash of $143.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2016, and our financing activities provided cash of $138.5 million for the same period. Our operating activities used cash primarily for our investment activities and our financing activities provided cash primarily from net borrowings under the Credit Facility.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Subsequent to quarter-end, we were awarded approximately 14 cents per share in a litigation settlement related to a former portfolio company of MCG Capital Corporation.
DISTRIBUTIONS
During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, we declared distributions of $0.285 and $0.855 per share, respectively, for total distributions of $9.3 million and $25.6 million, respectively. For the same periods in the prior year, we declared distributions of $0.285 and $0.855 per share, respectively, for total distributions of $7.6 million and $22.9 million, respectively. We monitor available net investment income to determine if a tax return of capital may occur for the fiscal year. To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for any given fiscal year, common stockholders will be notified of the portion of those distributions deemed to be a tax return of capital. Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders subject to information reporting on Form 1099-DIV after the end of the calendar year and in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.
