RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Set forth below are the results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Investment Income

Investment income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016 was $39.1 million and $74.4 million, respectively, and was attributable to $19.6 million and $32.5 million from senior secured loans, $13.8 million and $31.2 million from second lien secured debt, $5.7 million and $10.7 million from subordinated debt, preferred and common equity, respectively. This compares to investment income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, which was $42.7 million and $81.9 million, respectively, and was attributable to $15.7 million and $30.3 million from senior secured loans, $18.8 million and $34.6 million from second lien secured debt, $8.0 million and $16.3 million from subordinated debt, and $0.2 million and $0.7 million from preferred and common equity, respectively. The decrease in investment income compared with the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to a lower yielding portfolio.

Expenses

Net expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016 totaled $18.3 million and $36.7 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $5.1 million (after a base management fee waiver of $1.0 million) and $10.6 million (after a base management fee waiver of $2.0 million), incentive fee totaled $4.0 million (after an incentive fee waiver of $0.7 million) and $7.2 million (after an incentive fee waiver of $1.4 million), debt related interest and expenses totaled $6.9 million and $13.7 million, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.9 million and $3.5 million and provision for taxes totaled $0.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. This compares to expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, which totaled $20.6 million and $40.3 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $6.8 million and $13.6 million, incentive fee totaled $5.5 million and $10.4 million, debt related interest and expenses totaled $6.6 million and $13.1 million and general and administrative expenses totaled $1.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The decrease in expenses compared with the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the Management Fee waiver and lower portfolio size offset by a higher provision for taxes.

Net Investment Income

Net investment income totaled $20.8 million and $37.7 million, or $0.29 and $0.52 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively. Net investment income totaled $22.1 million and $41.6 million, or $0.29 and $0.55 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease in net investment income per share compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the repayments of higher yielding investments.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

Sales and repayments of investments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016 totaled $92.9 million and $201.0 million, respectively, and realized losses totaled $11.2 million and $36.6 million, respectively. Sales and repayments of investments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015 totaled $103.2 million and $182.5 million, respectively, and realized gains totaled $9.5 million and $18.1 million, respectively. The increase in realized losses compared with the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the changes in market conditions of our investments and a higher volume of sales and repayments.

Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments, Credit Facility, 2019 Notes and 2025 Notes

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, we reported a net change in unrealized depreciation on investments of $16.0 million and $55.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, we reported a net change in unrealized depreciation on investments of $24.8 million and $77.9 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, our net unrealized depreciation on investments totaled $181.1 million and $125.2 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized depreciation on our investments was driven primarily by changes in the capital market conditions, financial performance of certain portfolio companies, and the reversal of unrealized depreciation (appreciation) of investments liquidated.

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, we reported a net change in unrealized depreciation on our multi-currency, senior secured revolving credit facility, as amended and restated, or the Credit Facility, our 4.50% senior notes due 2019, or 2019 Notes, and our 6.25% senior notes due 2025, or 2025 Notes, of $10.3 million and $18.0 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, we reported a net change in unrealized depreciation on our Credit Facility, 2019 Notes and 2025 Notes of $0.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. The change compared with 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 $3.9 million and $(36.8) million, or $0.06 and $(0.51) per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively. This compares to a net change in net assets resulting from operations of $7.4 million and $(16.6) million, or $0.10 and $(0.22) per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease in the net change in net assets from operations compared with the same periods in the prior year reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting periods.

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 and proceeds from the rotation of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives.

As of March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, there was $141.3 million and $136.9 million (including a temporary draw of $30.0 million), respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate at the time of 2.80% and 3.07%, respectively, exclusive of the fee on undrawn commitments. The annualized weighted average cost of debt for the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment on the Credit Facility and upfront fees on Small Business Administration, or SBA, debentures, was 4.42% and 4.57%, respectively. The Credit Facility is a five-year revolving facility with a stated maturity date of June 25, 2019, a one-year term-out period following its fourth year and pricing is set at 225 basis points over LIBOR. As of March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, we had $403.7 million and $408.1 million of unused borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility, respectively, subject to the regulatory restrictions.

As of March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, we had $250.0 million and $71.3 million in aggregate principal amount of 2019 Notes and 2025 Notes, respectively, with a fixed interest rate of 4.50% and 6.25% per year, respectively. As of March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, we had $225.0 million in SBA debt commitments through certain of our consolidated subsidiaries and $172.5 million and 150.0 million, respectively, was drawn with a weighted average fixed interest rate of 3.59% and 3.70% (excluding 3.43% of upfront fees). The SBA debentures' upfront fees of 3.43% consist of a commitment fee of 1.00% and an issuance discount of 2.43%, which are being amortized.

At March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents at fair value of $33.2 million and $49.6 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 $9.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2016, and our financing activities used cash of $26.3 million for the same period. Our operating activities provided cash from sales and repayments on our investments and our financing activities used cash primarily for our stock repurchase plan.

Our operating activities used cash of $5.5 million for the six months ended March 31, 2015, primarily for net purchases of investments. Our financing activities provided cash of $1.9 million for the same period, primarily from net borrowings under our Credit Facility.

STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On May 6, 2015, we announced a share repurchase plan which allows us to repurchase up to $35 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. The program will expire on May 6, 2016. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, we repurchased 0.7 million and 1.9 million shares of common stock, respectively, in open market transactions for an aggregate cost (including transaction costs) of $3.7 million and $12.2 million, respectively. From May 6, 2015 to March 31, 2016, we purchased 4.0 million shares of common stock in open market transactions for an aggregate cost (including transaction costs) of $30.1 million.

DISTRIBUTIONS

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, we declared distributions of $0.28 and $0.56 per share, respectively, for total distributions of $19.9 million and $40.0 million, respectively. For the same periods in the prior year, we declared distributions of $0.28 and $0.56 per share, respectively, for total distributions of $21.0 million and $42.1 million, respectively. We monitor available net investment income to determine if a return of capital for taxation 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, a portion of those distributions may be deemed to be a return of capital to our common stockholders. Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders 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.
