PARKVIEW CAPITAL CREDIT, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share information)

 

NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Parkview Capital Credit, Inc. (the “Company”), was legally formed on November 25, 2014 (“Inception”) as a Maryland corporation and commenced its principal operations on April 24, 2015, commensurate with the raising of $20,000 through the sale of 2,000,000 shares of its common stock. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company1940 Act, of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) on February 12, 2016, and intends to elect to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

 

The Company is an investment company that follows the specialized accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services Investment Companies.”

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Additionally, the accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company and related financial information as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016 and 2015 have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial results included herein contain all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the period included herein. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016.2017.

 

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Organizational Expenses: Fees associated with the organization of the Company have been expensed as incurred. These fees consist primarily of legal fees.

Income Taxes:The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. As a BDC, the Company also intends to elect to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, the Company generally will not be required to pay corporate level federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes to its stockholders as dividends. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Company must distribute to its stockholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income” for that year, which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses. As a result, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Company’s common stockholders and will not be reflected in the financial statements of the Company for the years in which it qualifies as a RIC.


 

Prior to 2016, the Company did not qualify as a RIC and was taxed as a C corporation (“C-Corp”) for both 2014 and 2015. Because the Company did not elect to be regulated as a BDC until February 12, 2016, the Company did not qualify as a RIC for calendar year 2016. In order to be able to make its RIC election, the Company changed its tax year to June 30. The Company has filed as a C-Corp for the six month period ended June 30, 2016 and will elect RIC status for the tax year ended June 30, 2017 and thereafter.

7

 

Although the Company may not be subject to federal income taxes as a RIC, it may choose to retain a portion of its calendar year income. If so, the Company may be subject to a 4% excise tax on the amount retained. No excise taxes were accrued for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Prior to 2016, the Company did not qualify as a RIC and was taxed as a C corporation (“C-Corp”) for both 2014 and 2015. Because the Company did not elect to be regulated as a BDC until February 12, 2016, the Company will not qualify as a RIC for calendar year 2016. In order to be able to make such election, the Company changed its tax year to June 30. The Company will file as a C-Corp for the six month period ended June 30, 2016 and then elect RIC status for the tax year ended June 30, 2017 and thereafter.

The Company has recorded a tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The total provision for income taxes is as follows:

  For the Nine Months Ended
September 30
 
  2016  2015 
Current Federal $84   - 

The recording of the provision for income taxes reduced the Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share by $0.02.

There is no evidence to record a deferred tax asset on a more likely than not basis due to the limited operating history of the Company.March 31, 2017.

 

In order to qualify as a RIC, the Company must distribute before the end of its first qualifying tax year all earnings and profits accumulated in prior non-RIC tax years. There were no earnings and profits prior to 2016. The Company hashad approximately $200$121 of accumulated earnings and profits through the period ended June 30, 2016. Built-in gains by a C-Corp electing to be a RIC may be subject to tax if realized during the first five years of RIC status. The Company had net unrealized built-in gains on two investments in its portfolio at June 30, 2016 but did not have an aggregate net unrealized built-in gain as of that date.

 

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reversed and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. All tax years are open for examination.

 

Revenue Recognition: Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized, respectively, using the effective interest method as interest income. Dividend income is recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that the Company expects to collect such amount. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and amortized as interest income over the respective term of the loan. The Company records prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when it receives such amounts.

 

The Company has loans and preferred securities in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK represents interest or dividends that are accrued and recorded as interest or dividend income at the contractual rates, increases the loan or preferred equity principal on the respective capitalization dates, and is generally due at maturity. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized PIK income of $364$302 and $542,$18, respectively. The Company did not recognize PIK income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

8

 

Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)depreciation on investments in the statements of operations.

 

Earnings per Share: Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Other potentially dilutive shares of common stock, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis.

 


Investments: Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. The Company considers trade date for investments not traded on a recognizable exchange, or traded in the over-the-counter markets, to be the date on which the Company receives legal or contractual title to the asset and bears the risk of loss.

 

Investments in certain senior loans generate a fixed spread over floating base rates such as LIBOR or the U.S. Prime Rate. These floating base rates generally reset either monthly, quarterly or semi-annually.

 

Valuation of Portfolio Securities: The Company determines the net asset value per share of its common stock quarterly. The net asset value per share equals the value of the Company’s total assets minus liabilities and any preferred stock outstanding divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. The Company’s investments are valued at the end of each fiscal quarter.

 

Substantially all of the Company’s investments are expected to be in loans that do not have readily ascertainable market prices. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or multiple broker-dealers or market makers. In order to assist the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”)Board in determining the fair value of assets that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available, Parkview Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) provides the Board with portfolio company valuations, which are based on relevant inputs, which may include but are not limited to, indicative dealer quotes, values of like securities, recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts, and valuations prepared by third party valuation services. The Board has retained an independent valuation specialist to assist it by performing certain limited third-party valuation services. In connection with each valuation determination, investment professionals from the Advisor prepare portfolio company valuations using sources and/or proprietary models depending on the availability of information on the Company’s assets and the type of asset being valued, all in accordance with the Company’s valuation policy. The participation of the Advisor in the valuation process could result in a conflict of interest, since the base management fee is based on the Company’s gross assets.

 

Valuation of fixed income investments, such as loans and debt securities, depends upon a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates for like securities, expected volatility in future interest rates, call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt. For investments without readily available market prices, the Company may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Other factors that may be considered include the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the borrower in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing its debt investments.

 

The Company’s equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. The Board, in its determination of fair value, may consider various factors, such as multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. All of these factors may be subject to adjustments based upon the particular circumstances of a portfolio company or the actual investment position. For example, adjustments to EBITDA may take into account compensation to previous owners or acquisition, recapitalization, restructuring or other related items.

9

 

The Advisor’s management team, any approved independent third-party valuation specialist and the Board may also consider private merger and acquisition statistics, public trading multiples discounted for illiquidity and other factors, valuations implied by third-party investments in the portfolio companies or industry practices in determining fair value. The Advisor’s management team, any approved independent third-party valuation specialist and the Board may also consider the size and scope of a portfolio company and its specific strengths and weaknesses, and may apply discounts or premiums, where and as appropriate, due to the higher (or lower) financial risk and/or the smaller size of portfolio companies relative to comparable firms, as well as such other factors as the Board, in consultation with the Advisor’s management team and any approved independent third-party valuation specialist may consider relevant in assessing fair value. Generally, the value of the equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available will be based upon the most recent closing public market price. Portfolio securities that carry certain restrictions on sale are typically valued at a discount from the public market value of the security.


 

When the Company receives warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, the cost basis in the investment will be allocated between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. The Board subsequently values these warrants or other equity securities received at their fair value.

 

The Company periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices received from the third-party pricing services and/or dealers, as applicable, against the actual prices at which it purchases and sells investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Company believes that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. However, because of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not publicly reported), the Company believes that these valuation inputs are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company also uses an independent valuation firm to assist the Board in determining fair value for securities for which it cannot obtain prevailing bid and ask prices through third-party pricing services or independent dealers, or where the Board otherwise determines that the use of such other methods is appropriate. The Company periodically benchmarks the valuations provided by the independent valuation firm against the actual prices at which the Company purchases and sells investments. The audit committee and Board review and approve the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Company’s valuation policy.

 

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investment portfolio may differ from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In January 2016, the FASB issued ASUAccounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,”Liabilities” (“ASU 2016-01”) which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its financial statements.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,”Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”) which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on its financial statements.

 

ReclassificationsDistributions:: Prior period financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conformDistributions to the current period presentation.Company’s stockholders are recorded as of the record date. The Company intends to distribute net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually.

 

The determination of the tax attributes of the distributions is made at the end of the tax year based upon the taxable income for the full tax year and the distributions paid during the full tax year. The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds legally available to it, including proceeds from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, and dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. During certain periods, the Company’s distributions may exceed its earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions the Company makes may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholder’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from the Company’s investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on the sale of securities, and/or a return of capital, which is a nontaxable distribution) will be mailed to the Company’s stockholders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.

NOTE C – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Advisory Agreement

 

On March 11, 2015, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Advisor for management services (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”). The Investment Advisory Agreement was approved by the Board, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company and the Advisor as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, at an in person meeting of the Board held in August 2015. The Advisor is owned by SKW Financial, LLC, an entity controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Advisor provides credit analysis, structuring capability and transactional experience. The fees associated with the Investment Advisory Agreement consist of a base management fee and incentive fees.

 

The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2.00% of the end-of-period gross assets payable monthly in arrears. For purposes of calculating the management fee, the term “gross assets” includes any assets acquired with the proceeds of leverage. As a result, the Advisor will benefit when the Company incurs debt or uses leverage. For each of the first two months of operations, the management fee was calculated based on the value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of such month, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances during these months. Following the Company’s first two months of operations, theThe Investment Advisory Agreement provides that the management fee is calculated based on the average value of gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed months. The Company has clarified its management fee calculation so that the management fee is calculated by averaging the value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed quarters, and appropriately adjusting for any share issuances occurring during any month of the current quarter. Management fees for any partial month are appropriately prorated. In order to meet the diversification tests required to qualify as a RIC, the Company, on June 28, 2016March 29, 2017 and March 31,December 29, 2016 acquired $10,000$12,500 and $12,500,$12,000, respectively, in face value of short-term U.S. Treasury Bills. There were noAdditionally, the Company on March 31, 2016 acquired $12,500 in face value of short-term U.S. Treasury Bills acquired during the three months ended September 30, 2016.Bills. These transactions had the effect of increasing management fees payable to the Advisor, all of which were waived by the Advisor. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred management fees of $203$238 and $583,$222, respectively, netgross of the fee waiver of $25$60 and $112, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company incurred management fees of $126 and $147,$31, respectively.

 

The incentive fee is divided into two parts: (i) an incentive fee on income and (ii) an incentive fee on capital gains.

 

The incentive fee on income is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based upon the Company’s “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter. The incentive fee on income is subject to a hurdle rate, measured quarterly and expressed as a rate of return on adjusted capital at the beginning of the most recently completed calendar quarter, of 1.75% (7.0% annualized), subject to a “catch up” feature. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016, and 2015, the Company did not accrueincur any incentive fees on income.

 

The incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement). This fee will equal 20% of realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016, and 2015, the Company did not accrueincur any incentive fees on capital gains.

NOTE E – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. Accounting guidance emphasizes that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the investment as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 — Valuations based on inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable at the measurement date. This category includes quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets including actionable bids from third parties for privately held assets or liabilities, and observable inputs other than quoted prices such as yield curves and forward currency rates that are entered directly into valuation models to determine the value of derivatives or other assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and where there is little, if any, market activity at the measurement date.

 

The inputs for the determination of fair value may require significant management judgment or estimation and are based upon management’s assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities. These investments include debt and equity investments in private companies or assets valued using the market or income approach and may involve pricing models whose inputs require significant judgment or estimation because of the absence of any meaningful current market data for identical or similar investments. The inputs in these valuations may include, but are not limited to, capitalization and discount rates, beta and EBITDA multiples. The information may also include pricing information or broker quotes, which include a disclaimer that the broker would not be held to such a price in an actual transaction. The non-binding nature of consensus pricing and/or quotes accompanied by disclaimer would result in classification as Level 3 information, assuming no additional corroborating evidence.

 

Pricing inputs and weightings applied to determine value require subjective determination. Accordingly, valuations do not necessarily represent the amounts that may eventually be realized from sales or other dispositions of investments.

 

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward looking statements are based are reasonable, some of those assumptions are based on the work of third parties and any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate; as a result, the forward looking statements based on those assumptions also could prove to be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on these forward looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law. The safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, which preclude civil liability for certain forward looking statements are not applicable to us since we are a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or the 1940 Act.

Overview

 

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on November 25, 2014. We filed an election to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, and intend to elect to be treated as a RIC for federal income tax purposes. As such, we are required to comply with various regulatory requirements, such as the requirement to invest at least 70% of our assets in “qualifying assets,” source of income limitations, asset diversification requirements, and the requirement to distribute annually at least 90% of our taxable income and tax-exempt interest.

 All amounts presented are in thousands, except share and per share data.

 

Revenues

 

We generate revenues in the form of interest income from the debt securities we hold and dividends and capital appreciation on either direct equity investments or equity interests obtained in connection with originating loans, such as options, warrants or conversion rights. We expect most of the debt securities we will hold will be floating rate in nature. The debt we invest in will typically not be rated by any rating agency, but if it were, it is likely that such debt would be below investment grade. We intend to structure our debt investments with interest payable quarterly, semi-annually or annually, but we may structure certain investments with terms to provide for longer interest payment periods or to allow interest to be paid by adding amounts due to the principal balance of the loan, resulting in deferred cash receipts. In addition, we may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, loan origination, structuring or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance to our portfolio companies, and possibly consulting fees. Certain of these fees may be capitalized and amortized as additional interest income over the life of the related loan.

 

Expenses

 

We anticipate that all investment professionals and staff of our Advisor, Parkview Advisors, LLC, or the Advisor, when and to the extent engaged in providing us investment advisory and management services, and the base compensation, bonus and benefits, and the routine overhead expenses, of such personnel allocable to such services, will be provided and paid for by our Advisor.

Direct Origination

 

We intend to leverage our Advisor’s industry relationships to directly source investment opportunities. Such investments are originated or structured for us or made by us and are not generally available to the broader market. These investments may include both debt and equity components. We believe directly originated investments may offer higher returns and more favorable protections than broadly syndicated transactions. The following tables present certain selected information regarding the direct originations entered into during the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2017:

Portfolio Composition by Strategy and Industry

 

Although our primary focus is to invest in directly originated transactions, in certain circumstances we will also invest in the broadly syndicated loan and high yield markets. Broadly syndicated loans and bonds are generally more liquid than our directly originated investments and provide a complement to our less liquid strategies.


 

The table below summarizes the composition of our investment portfolio by strategy and enumerates the percentage, by fair value, of the total portfolio assets in such strategies:

Portfolio Asset Quality

 

In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, the Advisor uses an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. The Advisor uses an investment rating scale of 1 to 5. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:

 

Investment

Rating

 Summary Description
1 Investment exceeding expectations and/or capital gain expected.
2 Performing investment generally executing in accordance with the portfolio company’s business plan—full return of principal and interest expected. Each investment is initially rated 2.
3 Performing investment requiring closer monitoring.
4 Underperforming investment—some loss of interest or dividend possible, but still expecting a positive return on investment.
5 Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.

 

The following table shows the distribution of our investments on the 1 to 5 investment rating scale at fair value as of September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2015:2016:

The amount of the portfolio in each grading category may vary substantially from period to period resulting primarily from changes in the composition of the portfolio as a result of new investment, repayment and exit activities. In addition, changes in the grade of investments may be made to reflect our expectation of performance and changes in investment values.

We may borrow funds to make investments, to the extent we determine that additional capital would allow us to take advantage of additional investment opportunities. We currently do not have access to a credit facilityopportunities, if the market for debt financing presents attractively priced debt financing opportunities, or other formsif our board of borrowing.directors determines that leveraging our portfolio would be in our best interests.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. Refer to“Part I. Financial Information, Item 1. Financial Statements - Note B”B – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for a description of the summary of significant accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, our portfolio consisted of investments paying variable rates and fixed rates of interest. In addition, in the future we may seek to borrow funds in order to make additional investments. If we borrow funds to make additional investments, our net investment income will depend, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest those funds. As a result, we would be subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In periods of rising interest rates when we have debt outstanding, our cost of funds would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we hold fixed rate investments. If deemed prudent, we may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to our debt investments, especially to the extent that we hold variable rate investments. Currently 63%However, currently 27% of our portfolio pays variable rates of interest. Accordingly, anAn increase in interest rates wouldfor these variable rate investments could make it easier for us to meet or exceed our incentive fee return, as defined in our Investment Advisory Agreement, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income, and also to the amount of incentive fees payable to our Advisor with respect to our increasing pre-incentive fee net investment income.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

An evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) was carried out by us under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer, who serves as our principal executive officer, and our chief financial officer, who serves as our principal financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure (i) that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, in order to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013). There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

Although we may, from time to time, be involved in litigation arising out of our operations in the normal course of business or otherwise, neither we nor the Advisor is currently a party to any pending material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us or against the Advisor.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Other than the risk factors noted below, thereThere have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 that we filed with the SEC on March 28, 2016.16, 2017.

We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we may be required to recognize taxable income in circumstances in which we do not receive a corresponding payment in cash. For example, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, 36% and 20% of our total investment income consisted of PIK interest. Because PIK interest received by us is included in our investment company taxable income for the tax year of the accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement, even though we will not have received any corresponding cash amount. As a result, we may have difficulty meeting the annual distribution requirement necessary to qualify for and maintain RIC tax treatment under Subchapter M of the Code. We may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices we would not consider advantageous, raise debt or equity capital or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for or maintain RIC tax treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax.

PIK interest payments we receive increases our assets under management and, as a result, increases the amount of base management fees and incentive fees payable by us to our Advisor.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, 36% and 20% of our total investment income consisted of PIK interest. Because PIK interest results in an increase in the size of the loan balance of the underlying loan, the receipt by us of PIK interest has the effect of increasing our assets under management. As a result, because the base management fee that we pay to our Advisor is based on the value of our gross assets, the receipt by us of PIK interest results in an increase in the amount of the base management fee payable by us. In addition, any such increase in a loan balance due to the receipt of PIK interest causes such loan to accrue interest on the higher loan balance, which will result in an increase in our pre-incentive fee net investment income and, as a result, an increase in incentive fees that are payable by us to our Advisor.
