RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Set forth below are the results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Investment Income
Investment income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 was $24.3 million and $52.7 million, respectively, which was attributable to $14.5 million and $34.6 million from first lien secured debt, $6.3 million and $10.8 million from second lien secured debt, $0.4 million and $2.3 million from subordinated debt and $3.1 million and $4.9 million from preferred and common equity, respectively.

The increase in investment income compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the increase in the size of our debt portfolio.
Expenses
Expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $12.7 million and $28.5 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $5.0 million and $10.1 million, performance base incentive fee for the same periods totaled zero and $2.7 million, debt related interest and expenses totaled $6.5 million and $13.4 million, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.0 million and $1.9 million and provision for taxes totaled $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Base management fee for the same periods totaled $4.3 million and $8.4 million, debt related interest and expenses totaled $4.9 million and $9.9 million, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.1 million and $2.3 million and provision for taxes totaled $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The increase in expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to increased financing costs.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income totaled $11.7 million and $24.2 million, or $0.18 and $0.36 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. Net investment income totaled $8.8 million and $17.1 million, or $0.13 and $0.25 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in net investment income compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to increased investment income.
Net Realized Gains or Losses
Sales and repayments of investments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 totaled $405.5 million and $537.7 million, respectively, and net realized gains totaled $142.8 million and $116.7 million, respectively. Sales and repayments of investments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021 totaled $65.0 million and $167.6 million, respectively, and net realized gains (losses) totaled $0.3 million and ($17.3) million, respectively. The change in realized gains 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 the Credit Facilities
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, we reported net change in unrealized depreciation on investments of $151.5 million and $104.7 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, we reported net change in unrealized appreciation on investments of $33.2 million and $126.7 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, our net unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on investments totaled $(70.5) million and $34.2 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized depreciation on our investments compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the reversal of the unrealized appreciation of PT Network Intermediate Holdings, LLC after realizing the investment.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, the Truist Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized depreciation of $1.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, the Truist Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized appreciation of $3.8 million and $16.9 million, respectively, respectively. As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the net unrealized depreciation on the Credit Facilities totaled $2.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The net change in 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 $3.2 million and $28.7 million, or $0.05 and $0.43 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. Net change in net assets resulting from operations totaled $38.5 million and $109.6 million, or $0.57 and $1.64 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. The decrease in the net change in net assets from operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to a decrease in unrealized appreciation.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from proceeds of securities offerings, debt capital and cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments, and income earned. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our debt capital, proceeds from the rotation of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives. For more information on how the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our ability to comply with the covenants of the Credit Facility, see our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, including “Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – COVID-19 Developments”.
The annualized weighted average cost of debt for the six months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment and amendment costs on the Credit Facilities, amortized upfront fees on SBA debentures, was 4.8% and 3.5%, respectively.
As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we had $247.1 million and $118.5 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Truist Credit Facility, respectively, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions.
As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we had $217.9 million and $316.5 million, respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the Truist Credit Facility. The Truist Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 2.8% and 2.4%, respectively, exclusive of the fee on undrawn commitments, as of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021.
As of March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $26.3 million and $20.4 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 provided cash of $89.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022, and our financing activities used cash of $83.9 million for the same period. Our operating activities provided cash primarily due to our investment activities and our financing activities used cash primarily due to the repayments under the Truist Credit Facility.
Our operating activities provided cash of $46.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2021 and our financing activities used cash of $38.8 million for the same period. Our operating activities provided cash primarily from our investment activities and our financing activities used cash primarily to pay down the Truist Credit Facility and our SBA Debentures.
STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
On February 9, 2022, we announced a share repurchase program which allows us to repurchase up to $25 million of our outstanding common stock in the open market at prices below our net asset value as reported in our then most recently published consolidated financial statements. The shares may be purchased from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market transactions, including block transactions. Unless extended by our board of directors, the program, which may be implemented at the discretion of management, will expire on the earlier of March 31, 2023 and the repurchase of $25 million of common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 913,454 shares of common stock in open market transactions for an aggregate cost (including transaction costs) of $7.1 million.
DISTRIBUTIONS
During the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, we declared distributions of $0.14 and $0.26 per share, for total distributions of $9.4 million and $17.4 million, respectively. For the same periods in the prior year, we declared distributions of $0.12 and $0.24 per share, for total distributions of $8.0 million and $16.1 million, respectively. We monitor available net investment income to determine if a return of capital for tax purposes 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, 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 each calendar year and in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
