RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Set forth below are the results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
Investment Income
Investment income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 was $28.7 million and $56.1 million, respectively, and was attributable to $15.7 million and $29.0 million from first lien secured debt, $11.2 million and $23.5 million from second lien secured debt and $1.8 million and $3.6 million from subordinated debt, respectively. This compares to investment income for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, which was $27.2 million and $55.9 million, respectively, and was attributable to $12.7 million and $25.4 million from first lien secured debt, $11.3 million and $24.2 million from second lien secured debt and $3.2 million and $6.3 million from subordinated debt, preferred and common equity. 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 six months ended March 31, 2019 totaled $17.9 million and $32.7 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $4.5 million and $8.9 million, incentive fee totaled less than $0.1 million and $2.7 million, debt related interest and expenses totaled $11.9 million (including $2.2 million of make-whole premium on the repayment of the 2019 Notes and $2.7 million in debt issuance costs on the BNP Credit Facility) and $18.2 million (including $2.2 million of make-whole premium on the repayment of the 2019 Notes and $2.7 million in debt issuance costs on the BNP Credit Facility), general and administrative expenses totaled $1.2 million and $2.3 million and provision for taxes totaled $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively. This compares to net expenses for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, which totaled $13.8 million and $28.3 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same periods totaled $3.9 million and $8.7 million (after a base management fee waiver of $0.9 million), incentive fee totaled $2.8 million and $5.5 million (after an incentive fee waiver of $0.5 million), debt related interest and expenses totaled $5.9 million and $11.8 million and general and administrative expenses totaled $1.2 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The increase in expenses compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the expenses related the make-whole premium on the repayment of the 2019 Notes and the debt issuance costs on the BNP Credit Facility.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income totaled $10.8 million and $23.3 million, or $0.16 and $0.34 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, respectively. Net investment income totaled $13.4 million and $27.6 million, or $0.19 and $0.39 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. The decrease in net investment income compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to the expenses related the make-whole premium on the repayment of the 2019 Notes and the debt issuance costs on the BNP Credit Facility.
Net Realized Gains or Losses
Sales and repayments of investments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 totaled $115.1 million and $240.9 million, respectively, and net realized gains totaled $1.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively. Sales and repayments of investments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018 totaled $246.4 million and $438.7 million, respectively, and net realized gains totaled $21.8 million and $25.5 million, 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, the Credit Facilities and the 2019 Notes
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, we reported net change in unrealized depreciation on investments of $20.1 million and $40.5 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, we reported net change in unrealized depreciation on investments of $29.5 million and $36.3 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, our net unrealized depreciation on investments totaled $152.3 million and $111.8 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on our investments compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital market conditions, the financial performance of certain portfolio companies and the reversal of unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments that were realized.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, our BNP Credit Facility and the multi-currency, senior secured revolving credit facility with SunTrust Bank, or the SunTrust Credit Facility (collectively, the Credit Facilities), and the 2019 Notes had a net change in unrealized depreciation of $3.7 million and $9.7 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, the SunTrust Credit Facility and the 2019 Notes had a net change in unrealized depreciation of $0.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, the net unrealized depreciation on the Credit Facilities totaled $11.3 million. As of September 30, 2018, the net unrealized depreciation on the SunTrust Credit Facility and the 2019 Notes totaled $1.6 million. The net 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 $(4.7) million and $2.0 million, or $(0.07) and $0.03 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019. Net change in net assets resulting from operations totaled $6.0 million and $18.3 million, or $0.08 and $0.26 per share, for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in the net change in net assets from operations compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to depreciation of the portfolio in the current period.
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.
The annualized weighted average cost of debt for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment under the SunTrust Credit Facility, debt issuance costs on the BNP Credit Facility, prepayment penalties on the 2019 Notes and amortized upfront fees on Small Business Administration, or SBA, debentures, was 6.97% and 4.58%, respectively (excluding debt issuance costs and prepayment penalties, amounts were 5.90% and 4.58%, respectively).
As of March 31, 2019, PennantPark Investment Funding I, LLC, or Funding I, had $142.5 million in outstanding borrowings under the BNP Credit Facility. The BNP Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 5.10% as of March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, Funding I had $107.5 million of unused borrowing capacity under the BNP Credit Facility, subject to the regulatory restrictions.
As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, we had $389.1 million and $80.5 million (including a $2.0 million temporary draw), respectively, in outstanding borrowings under the SunTrust Credit Facility. The SunTrust Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 4.58% and 3.79%, respectively, exclusive of the fee on undrawn commitments of 0.375%, as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018. As of the same periods, we had $55.9 million and $364.5 million of unused borrowing capacity under our SunTrust Credit Facility, respectively, subject to the regulatory restrictions.
As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, we had zero and $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2019 Notes outstanding, respectively, with a fixed interest rate of 4.50% per year. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, we had $150.0 million and $180.0 million in SBA debentures outstanding, respectively.
As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $30.3 million and $19.5 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 $121.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2019, and our financing activities provided cash of $132.0 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 Facilities.
Our operating activities provided cash of $196.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2018, and our financing activities used cash of $64.2 million for the same period. Our operating activities provided cash from sales and repayments on our investments and our financing activities used cash primarily to pay distributions to stockholders and for net repayments under the SunTrust Credit Facility.
STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
On May 9, 2018, we announced a share repurchase program which allows us to repurchase up to $30 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 May 9, 2019 and the repurchase of $30 million of common stock. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, we repurchased 1.0 million and 2.0 million shares of common stock in open market transactions for an aggregate cost (including transaction costs) of $7.0 million and $14.5 million, respectively. During both the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, we did not make any repurchases of our common stock. Over the last four fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2019, we repurchased 4.0 million shares of common stock in open market transactions for an aggregate cost (including transaction costs) of $29.5 million.
DISTRIBUTIONS
During the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, we declared distributions of $0.18 and $0.36 per share, for total distributions of $12.1 million and $24.3 million, respectively. For the same periods in the prior year, we declared distributions of $0.18 and $0.36 per share, for total distributions of $12.8 million and $25.6 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 Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On April 12, 2019, we entered into an amended and restated investment advisory management agreement with the Investment Adviser, or the A&R Investment Management Agreement. Pursuant to the A&R Investment Management Agreement, we reduced our base management fee on gross assets that exceed 200% of our total net assets as of the immediately preceding quarter-end from 1.50% to 1.00%. The A&R Investment Management Agreement is effective as of February 5, 2019, the date our stockholders approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as modified by Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2018 (which included the Small Business Credit Availability Act).
