Explanatory Note
We are filing this Amended Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, which we refer to as the Amended Filing, to restate our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, as discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying restated unaudited consolidated financial statements. Our original Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, which we refer to as the Original Filing, was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 8, 2008.
Background of the Restatement
On March, 15, 2010, our Board of Directors and the members of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors concluded that the Company should restate its financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 and for each of the quarters in 2007 and 2008 and the first three quarters in 2009, which we collectively refer to as the Affected Periods.
The determination to restate the financial statements for the Affected Periods was made in connection with management’s assessment of accounting errors it discovered as part of a process to remediate a material weakness in internal controls previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q in 2009. While the Company has taken steps to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness, the material weakness existed throughout the quarterly periods of 2009, and at December 31, 2009, the Company had not yet remediated the material weakness. The Company anticipates that it will complete its testing of the additional internal control processes designed to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness in 2010.
The errors and consequent restatements described below principally involved non-cash accounting entries related to net deferred tax assets and liabilities that typically arise as a result of timing differences in tax and GAAP (book) accounting. Taxable Net Investment Income, which is the primary determinant of the Company’s distributable income, has not been affected in any of the Affected Periods by these restatements.
The Company’s assessment of certain identified accounting errors results in the following adjustments to previously reported periods:
1. In the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company failed to record a deferred tax liability with respect to approximately $2.1 million in unrealized appreciation on an investment in partnerships. Similarly, in the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the Company failed to record deferred tax liabilities with respect to approximately $4.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in unrealized appreciation on an investment.
2. In the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company realized a $12.34 million pre-tax gain on this same investment (as compared to the $8.15 million of unrealized appreciation previously recorded in 2007). The reversal of the previously unrecorded deferred tax liability in 2008 resulted in the incorrect recording of a net tax deferred tax asset of $3.8 million at year end 2008.
Unrelated to the restatements, we have reclassified certain balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows amounts to conform to the presentation in our most recently-filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. These reclassifications were primarily related to the disaggregation of investments in portfolio securities, investment income, net realized capital gain (loss) on investments and net unrealized gain (loss) on investments into separate classifications according to level of control.
Restatement of Other Financial Statements
We have restated our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, which was filed on March 31, 2010. We have not amended, and we do not intend to amend, either of our previously filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2007 or December 31, 2008. With the filing of this Amended Filing, we are concurrently filing amendments to our Quarterly Reports on Form 10−Q for each of the quarters ended March 31 in the Affected Periods and plan to subsequently file amendments to our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for each of the other quarters in the Affected Periods. For this reason, readers should no longer rely on those previously issued financial statements and the related information contained in such previously filed reports for the Affected Periods.
For the convenience of the reader, this Amended Filing sets forth the Original Filing, as modified and superseded where necessary to reflect the amendment and restatement of our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The following items have been amended principally as a result of, and to reflect, the restatement:
| · | Part I – Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements; |
| · | Part I – Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; |
| · | Part I – Item 4. Controls and Procedures; |
| · | Part II – Item 1.A. Risk Factors; and |
| · | Part II – Item 6. Exhibits. |
In accordance with applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this Amended Filing includes certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer dated as of the date of this filing.
The remaining items contained in this Amended Filing consist of all other items originally contained in the Original Filing and are included for the convenience of the reader. The sections of the Original Filing which were not amended are unchanged and continue in full force and effect as originally filed. This Amended Filing speaks as of May 8, 2008, the date we filed the Original Filing, and has not been updated to reflect events occurring subsequent to the date of the original filing other than those associated with the evaluation of and resulting restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NGP CAPITAL RESOURCES COMPANY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2008
(Unaudited)
Note 1: Organization
NGP Capital Resources Company (the “Company”) was organized as a Maryland corporation in July 2004. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, for federal income tax purposes the Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company has several subsidiaries that are single member limited liability companies and wholly owned limited partnerships established to hold certain portfolio investments or provide services to the Company in accordance with specific rules prescribed for a company operating as a RIC. These subsidiaries are: NGPC Funding GP, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; NGPC Nevada, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company; NGPC Funding, LP, a Texas limited partnership; NGPC Asset Holdings GP, LLC, a Texas limited liability company; NGPC Asset Holdings, LP, a Texas limited partnership; NGPC Asset Holdings II, LP, a Texas limited partnership; NGPC Asset Holdings III, LP, a Texas limited partnership and NGPC Asset Holdings IV, LP, a Texas limited partnership. The Company consolidates the results of its subsidiaries for financial reporting purposes. The Company does not consolidate the financial results of its portfolio companies.
The Company was created to invest primarily in small and mid-size private energy companies, which are generally defined as companies that have net asset values or annual revenues of less than $500 million and are not issuers of publicly traded securities. The Company’s investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt investments with certain equity components.
The Company is managed and advised, subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s Board of Directors, by NGP Investment Advisor, LP (the “Manager”), a Delaware limited partnership owned by NGP Energy Capital Management, LLC, and NGP Administration, LLC (the “Administrator”), the Company’s administrator.
Note 2: Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements
Background of the Restatement
On March 15, 2010, our Board of Directors and the members of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors concluded that we should restate our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008, and for the quarters in 2007 and 2008 and the first three quarters of 2009 (collectively, the “Affected Periods”).
The determination to restate the financial statements for the Affected Periods was made in connection with management’s assessment of accounting errors it discovered as part of a process to remediate a material weakness in internal controls previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q in 2009. While the Company has taken steps to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness, the material weakness existed throughout the quarterly periods of 2009, and at December 31, 2009, the Company had not yet completed its assessment as to whether the material weakness had been fully remediated. The Company anticipates that it will complete its testing of the additional internal control processes designed to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness in 2010.
The errors and consequent restatements described below principally involved non-cash accounting entries related to net deferred tax assets and liabilities that typically arise as a result of timing differences in tax and GAAP (book) accounting. Taxable Net Investment Income, which is the primary determinant of the Company’s distributable income, has not been affected in any of the Affected Periods by these restatements.
The Company’s assessment of certain identified accounting errors results in the following adjustments to previously reported periods:
1. In the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company failed to record a deferred tax liability with respect to approximately $2.1 million in unrealized appreciation on an investment in partnerships. Similarly, in the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the Company failed to record deferred tax liabilities with respect to approximately $4.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in unrealized appreciation on an investment.
2. In the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company realized a $12.34 million pre-tax gain on this same investment (as compared to the $8.15 million of unrealized appreciation previously recorded in 2007). The reversal of the previously unrecorded deferred tax liability in 2008 resulted in the incorrect recording of a net deferred tax asset of $3.8 million at year end 2008.
Unrelated to the restatements, we have reclassified certain balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows amounts to conform to the presentation in our most recently-filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. These reclassifications were primarily related to the disaggregation of investments in portfolio securities, investment income, net realized capital gain (loss) on investments and net unrealized gain (loss) on investments into separate classifications according to level of control.
Impact of the Restatement and Reclassification
The restatement and reclassification adjustments detailed below to our previously filed consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments which principally involved non-cash accounting entries related to net deferred tax assets and liabilities, which impact the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statement of operations and consolidated statement of cash flows.
The effects of the restatement on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 are summarized in the following table:

Note 3: Significant Accounting Policies
The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management of the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for presentation of the information have been included. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied by the Company in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements:
Use of Estimates
The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP that require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes to the interim consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
Prepaid Assets
Prepaid assets consist of premiums paid for directors’ and officers’ insurance and fidelity bonds with a policy term of one year, fees associated with the establishment of the policy or credit facility, and registration expenses related to the Company’s shelf filing. Such premiums and fees are amortized monthly on a straight-line basis over the term of the policy or credit facility. Registration expenses are deferred and will be charged as a reduction of capital upon the sale of shares.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in checking accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.
Valuation of Investments
Investments are carried at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. On a quarterly basis, the investment team of the Manager prepares valuations for all of the assets in our portfolio companies and presents the valuations to the Company’s Valuation Committee and Board of Directors. The valuations are determined and recommended by the Valuation Committee to the Board of Directors, which reviews and ratifies the final portfolio valuations.
Investments in securities for which market quotations are readily available are recorded in the financial statements at such market quotations as of the valuation date adjusted for appropriate liquidity discounts, if applicable. For investments in securities for which market quotations are unavailable, or which have various degrees of trading restrictions, the investment team prepares valuation analyses, as generally described below.
Using the most recently available financial statements, forecasts and, when applicable, comparable transaction data, the investment team of the Manager prepares valuation analyses for the various securities in the Company’s investment portfolio. These valuation analyses are prepared using traditional valuation methodologies, which rely on estimates of the asset values and enterprise values of portfolio companies issuing securities.
The methodologies for determining asset valuations include estimates based on: the liquidation or sale value of a portfolio company’s assets, the discounted value of expected future net cash flows from the assets and third party valuations of the portfolio company’s assets, such as engineering reserve reports of oil and gas properties. The investment team of the Manager considers some or all of the above valuation methods to determine the estimated asset value of a portfolio company.
The methodologies for determining enterprise valuations include estimates based on: valuations of comparable public companies, recent sales of comparable companies, the value of recent investments in the equity securities of a portfolio company and also on the methodologies used for asset valuations. The investment team of the Manager considers one or all of the above valuation methods to determine the estimated enterprise value of a portfolio company.
Debt Securities: The Company records its investments in non-convertible debt securities at fair value which generally approximates cost plus amortized original issue discount, or OID, to the extent that the estimated asset or enterprise value of the portfolio company exceeds the outstanding debt of the portfolio company. The Company records its investment in convertible debt securities at fair value which generally approximates the higher of: 1) cost plus amortized OID, to the extent that the estimated asset or enterprise value of the portfolio company equals or exceeds the outstanding debt of the portfolio company; and 2) the Company’s pro rata share, upon conversion, of the residual equity value of the portfolio company available after deducting all outstanding debt from its estimated enterprise value. If the estimated asset or enterprise value is less than the sum of the value of the Company’s debt investment and all other debt securities of the portfolio company pari passu or senior to the Company’s debt investment, the Company reduces the value of its debt investment beginning with its junior-most debt investment such that the asset or enterprise value less the value of the outstanding pari passu or senior debt is zero.
Equity Securities: The Company records its investments in preferred and common equity securities (including warrants or options to acquire equity securities) at fair value based on its pro rata share of the residual equity value available after deducting all outstanding debt from the estimated enterprise value.
Property-Based Equity Participation Rights: The Company records its investments in overriding royalty and net profits interests at fair value based on a multiple of cash flows generated by such investments, multiples from transactions involving the sale of comparable assets and/or the discounted value of expected future net cash flows from such investments. Appropriate cash flow multiples are derived from the review of comparable transactions involving similar assets. The discounted value of future net cash flows is derived, when appropriate, from third party valuations of a portfolio company’s assets, such as engineering reserve reports of oil and gas properties.
Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. Additionally, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different from the valuations currently assigned.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.
As of January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157. The Company has performed an analysis of all existing investments to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination. Based on this assessment, the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s net asset value.
Securities Transactions, Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
All securities transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Premiums and discounts are accreted into interest income using the effective interest method. Detachable warrants, other equity securities or property interests such as overriding royalty interests obtained in conjunction with the acquisition of debt securities are recorded separately from the debt securities at their initial fair value, with a corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the associated debt security. Income from overriding royalty interests is recognized as received and the recorded assets are charged depletion using the unit of production depletion method. The portion of the loan origination fees paid that represent additional yield or discount on a loan are deferred and accreted into interest income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income and any unamortized premium or discount is recorded as a realized gain or loss. Market premiums or discounts on acquired loans or fixed income investments are accreted into interest income using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Accruing interest or dividends on investments is deferred when it is determined that the interest or dividend is not collectible. Collectability of the interest and dividends is assessed, based on many factors including the portfolio company’s ability to service its loan based on current and projected cash flows as well as the current valuation of the portfolio company’s assets.
Payment-in-Kind Interest and Dividends
The Company may have investments in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK interest or dividends, computed at the contractual rate specified in each investment agreement, are added to the principal balance of the investment and recorded as interest or dividend income. For investments with PIK interest or dividends, the Company bases income accruals on the principal balance including any PIK. If the portfolio company’s asset valuation is not sufficient to cover the contractual interest, the Company will not accrue interest or dividend income on the investment. To maintain the Company’s RIC status, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders in the form of dividends, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash. For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, PIK interest income totaled $1,728,817, and there was no PIK dividend income. For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, PIK interest income totaled $1,115,048, and there was no PIK dividend income.
Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation
Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, considering unamortized fees and prepayment premiums, and without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the year, net of recoveries. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when capital gains or losses are realized.
Fee Income Recognition
Fees primarily include financial advisory, transaction structuring, loan administration, commitment and prepayment fees. Financial advisory fees represent amounts received for providing advice and analysis to companies and are recognized as earned when such services are performed, provided collection is probable. Transaction structuring fees represent amounts received for structuring, financing and executing transactions and are generally payable only if the transaction closes. Such fees are deferred and accreted into interest income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Commitment fees represent amounts received for committed funding and are generally payable whether or not the transaction closes. On transactions that close within the commitment period, commitment fees are deferred and accreted into interest income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Commitment fees on transactions that do not close are generally recognized over the period the commitment is outstanding. Prepayment and loan administration fees are recognized as they are received. For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Company accreted approximately $0.3 million of fee income into interest income, compared to approximately $0.4 million of fee income for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
Dividends
Dividends to stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Company currently intends that its distributions each year will be sufficient to maintain the Company’s status as a RIC for federal income tax purposes and to eliminate excise tax liability. The Company currently intends to make distributions to stockholders on a quarterly basis of substantially all of its net taxable income. The Company also intends to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. However, the Company may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment and designate such retained amount as a deemed distribution. The amount to be paid out as a dividend, if any, is determined by the Company’s Board of Directors each quarter and is based on the annual taxable earnings estimated by the Manager. Based on that estimate, a dividend is declared each quarter and paid shortly thereafter.
Prior to 2005, the Company was treated as a “C” corporation and had no taxable income and therefore did not declare a dividend for that period. The following table summarizes the Company’s dividend history:

The Company has established an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan for its common stockholders. As a result, if the Company declares a dividend, then a stockholder’s cash dividend will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock unless the stockholder, or his or her broker, specifically “opts out” of the dividend reinvestment plan and elects to receive cash dividends. It is customary practice for many brokers to “opt out” of dividend reinvestment plans on behalf of their clients unless specifically instructed otherwise. As of April 11, 2008, holders of 1,693,284 shares, or approximately 9.7% of outstanding shares, were participants in the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan.
The Company’s plan provides for the plan agent to purchase shares in the open market for credit to the accounts of plan participants unless the average of the closing sales prices for the shares for the five days immediately preceding the payment date exceeds 110% of the most recently reported net asset value per share.
The table below summarizes participation in the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan:

Note 4: Credit Facilities and Borrowings
Under the terms of the Company’s Second Amendment to Treasury Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Treasury Facility”), the lenders party thereto and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent for the lenders, have extended credit available under the Treasury Facility to an amount not to exceed $175 million by obtaining additional commitments from existing lenders or new lenders. The total amount committed and outstanding under the Treasury Agreement as of March 31, 2008 was $126.25 million, which was unchanged compared to the committed and outstanding amounts as of December 31, 2007. Proceeds from the Treasury Facility are used to facilitate the growth of the Company’s investment portfolio and provide flexibility in the sizing of its portfolio investments. The Treasury Facility has a three-year term and bears interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) LIBOR plus 25 basis points or (ii) the base rate. As of March 31, 2008, the interest rate on the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Treasury Facility was 2.84875% (LIBOR rate of 2.59875% plus 25 basis points) on $126.25 million. The obligations under the Treasury Facility are collateralized by certain securities and are guaranteed by the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries, other than special purpose subsidiaries and certain other subsidiaries. The Treasury Facility contains affirmative and reporting covenants and certain financial ratio and restrictive covenants, including: (a) maintaining a ratio of net asset value to consolidated total indebtedness (excluding net hedging liabilities) of the Company and its subsidiaries, of not less than 2.25:1.0, (b) maintaining a ratio of net asset value to consolidated total indebtedness (including net hedging liabilities) of the Company and its subsidiaries, of not less than 2.0:1.0, (c) maintaining a ratio of EBITDA (excluding revenue from cash collateral) to interest expense (excluding interest on loans under the Treasury Facility) of the Company and its subsidiaries of not less than 3.0:1.0, (d) maintaining a ratio of collateral to the aggregate principal amount of loans under the Treasury Facility of not less than 1.01:1.0, (e) limitations on additional indebtedness, (f) limitations on liens, (g) limitations on mergers and other fundamental changes, (h) limitations on dividends, (i) limitations on disposition of assets other than in the normal course of business, (j) limitations on transactions with affiliates, (k) limitations on agreements that prohibit liens on properties of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors, (l) limitations on sale and leaseback transactions, (m) limitations on speculative hedging transactions, and (n) limitations on the aggregate amount of unfunded commitments.
Under the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Investment Facility”), the lenders have agreed to extend revolving credit to the Company in an amount not to exceed $100 million, with the ability to increase the credit available to an amount not to exceed $175 million by obtaining additional commitments from existing lenders or new lenders. The total amount committed was $100 million and $65 million was outstanding under the Investment Facility as of March 31, 2008. By comparison, the total amount committed as of December 31, 2007 was $100 million and $89.75 million was outstanding under the Investment Facility. The Investment Facility has a three-year term and bears interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) LIBOR plus 125 to 225 basis points, based on the degree of leverage of the Company or (ii) the base rate plus 0 to 75 basis points, based on the degree of leverage of the Company. Proceeds from the Investment Facility will be used to supplement the Company’s equity capital to make portfolio investments. As of March 31, 2008, the interest rates were 5.75% (Prime rate of 5.25% plus 50 basis points) on $10 million, and 4.6775% (LIBOR rate of 2.6775% plus 200 basis points) on $55 million.
The obligations under the Investment Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets, except certain assets that collateralize the Treasury Facility and are guaranteed by the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries, other than special purpose subsidiaries and certain other subsidiaries. The Investment Facility contains affirmative and reporting covenants and certain financial ratio and restrictive covenants, including: (a) maintaining a ratio of net asset value to consolidated total indebtedness (excluding net hedging liabilities) of the Company and its subsidiaries, of not less than 2.25:1.0, (b) maintaining a ratio of net asset value to consolidated total indebtedness (including net hedging liabilities) of the Company and its subsidiaries, of not less than 2.0:1.0, (c) maintaining a ratio of net income (excluding revenue from collateral under the Treasury Facility) plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses (“EBITDA”) to interest expense (excluding interest on loans under the Treasury Facility) of the Company and its subsidiaries of not less than 3.0:1.0, (d) limitations on additional indebtedness, (e) limitations on liens, (f) limitations on mergers and other fundamental changes, (g) limitations on dividends, (h) limitations on disposition of assets other than in the normal course of business, (i) limitations on transactions with affiliates, (j) limitations on agreements that prohibit liens on properties of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors, (k) limitations on sale and leaseback transactions, (l) limitations on speculative hedging transactions and (m) limitations on the aggregate amount of unfunded commitments.
From time to time, certain of the lenders may provide customary commercial and investment banking services to the Company.
The Manager has agreed to waive permanently, subsequent to September 30, 2007, that portion of the management fee attributable to U.S. Treasury securities acquired with borrowings under the Company’s credit facilities to the extent the amount of such securities exceeds $100 million.
In addition to the Company’s credit facility, the Company may also fund a portion of its investments with issuances of equity or senior debt securities. The Company may also securitize a portion of its investments in mezzanine or senior secured loans or other assets. The Company expects its primary use of funds to be investments in portfolio companies, cash distributions to holders of its common stock and payment of fees and other operating expenses.
Note 5: Issuance of Common Stock
On August 6, 2004, the Company, in its initial capitalization transaction, sold 100 shares of common stock to Natural Gas Partners, LLC for $15.00 per share. On November 9, 2004, the Company’s Registration Statement (Registration No. 333-118279) was declared effective by the SEC in connection with the public offering of 16,000,000 shares of common stock (plus up to 2,400,000 additional shares of common stock upon the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option), which commenced on November 10, 2004. The number of securities registered, including the shares of common stock subject to the underwriters’ over-allotment option, was 18,400,000, of which 17,400,000 were sold to the public at a price of $15.00 per share.
The net proceeds from the initial public offering of the shares of common stock, after deducting expenses of approximately $2,308,000 and underwriting discounts and commissions of $0.825 per share, were approximately $244,337,000.
The Company has established a dividend reinvestment plan for the Company’s common stockholders, which provides for reinvestment of distributions paid by the Company, on behalf of each plan participant, by the Company’s transfer agent, in accordance with the plan terms. The purpose of the plan is to provide stockholdersf record of the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share, with a method of investing cash dividends and distributions in additional shares at the current market price without charges for record-keeping, custodial, and reporting services. However, the plan is an “opt-out” plan. This means, if the Company declares a cash dividend, a stockholder’s cash dividend will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of its common stock unless the stockholder specifically “opts out” of the dividend reinvestment plan in writing, and elects to receive cash dividends. Any stockholder of record may elect to partially participate in the plan, or begin or resume participation at any time, by providing the plan agent with written notice. It is customary practice for many brokers to “opt out” of dividend reinvestment plans on behalf of their clients unless specifically instructed otherwise.
The Company issued 22,168 and 78,064 shares of common stock, respectively, in 2006 and 2007 to participants in the dividend reinvestment plan. The Company issued 41,482 shares of common stock on April 11, 2008 to participants in the dividend reinvestment plan with respect to the $0.40 per share dividend declared on March 6, 2008. See Dividends in Note 2 .
Note 6: Investment Management
Investment Advisory Agreement
The Company has entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Manager under which the Manager, subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company.
As a result of the accounting errors that necessitated the restatement of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008, between 2007 and 2009, the Company overpaid the Manager’s management and incentive fees by approximately $34,600. The Company overpaid the base management fee to the Manager in 2008 and 2009 by approximately $33,400 as detailed by quarter below. These errors resulted principally from the incorrect reporting of Total Assets and Net Assets. In the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007, the Company underpaid the Manager’s investment income incentive fee by approximately $4,400 and $9,100, respectively and overpaid the capital gains fee as of December 31, 2007 by approximately $14,700. The approximate $34,600 net overpayment to the Manager was settled in the first quarter of 2010.

For providing these services, the Manager receives a fee from the Company, consisting of two components — a base management fee and an incentive fee.
Under the investment advisory agreement, the base management fee is calculated quarterly as 0.45% of the average of total assets of the Company as of the end of the two previous quarters, and is payable quarterly in arrears. The Manager has agreed to waive permanently, subsequent to September 30, 2007, that portion of the management fee attributable to U.S. Treasury securities acquired with borrowings under the Company’s credit facilities to the extent the amount of such securities exceeds $100 million.
Of the $2,148,721 management and incentive fees payable to the Manager as of March 31, 2008, $1,800,206 is the base management fee for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The base management fee for the quarter ended December 31, 2007 was $1,683,592.
The incentive fee under the investment advisory agreement consists of two parts. The first part, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20% of the excess, if any, of the Company’s net investment income for the quarter that exceeds a quarterly hurdle rate equal to 2% (8% annualized) of the Company’s net assets.
For this purpose, net investment income means interest income, dividend income, and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, syndication, structuring, diligence, managerial assistance, monitoring, and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the fiscal quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the administration agreement, any interest expense and dividends paid on issued and outstanding preferred stock, if any, but excluding the incentive fee). Accordingly, the Company may pay an incentive fee based partly on accrued interest, the collection of which is uncertain or deferred. Net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses, or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.
The incentive fees due in any fiscal quarter will be calculated as follows:
| · | No incentive fee in any fiscal quarter in which the Company’s net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate. |
| · | 20% of the amount of the Company’s net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate in any fiscal quarter. |
There were no investment income incentive fees earned for the first quarters of 2008 and 2007.
Realized capital gains on a security are calculated as the excess of the net amount realized from the sale or other disposition of such security over the amortized cost for the security. Realized capital losses on a security are calculated as the amount by which the net amount realized from the sale or other disposition of such security is less than the amortized cost of such security. Unrealized capital depreciation on a security is calculated as the amount by which the original cost of such security exceeds the fair value of such security at the end of a fiscal year. All period-end valuations are determined by the Company in accordance with GAAP and the 1940 Act.
The Manager has agreed that, to the extent permissible under federal securities laws and regulations, including Regulation M, it will utilize 30% of the fees it receives from the capital gains portion of the incentive fee (up to a maximum of $5 million of fees received in the aggregate) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in open market purchases through an independent trustee or agent. Any sales of such stock will comply with any applicable six-month holding period under Section 16(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 and all other restrictions contained in any law or regulation, to the fullest extent applicable to any such sale. Any change in this voluntary agreement will not be implemented without at least 90 days prior notice to stockholders and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
The investment advisory agreement was originally approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on November 9, 2004. The investment advisory agreement provides that unless terminated earlier as described below, the agreement shall remain in effect from year-to-year after November 9, 2006, provided continuation is approved at least annually by the Company’s Board of Directors or by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting securities, including, in either case, approval by a majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors who are not interested persons. On November 1, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors, including all of the independent directors, approved an extension of the investment advisory agreement through November 9, 2008.
The agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by a vote of the Company’s Board of Directors or the holders of a majority of the Company’s shares on 60 days’ written notice to the Manager, and would automatically terminate in the event of its “assignment” (as defined in the 1940 Act). The agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon not more than 60 days’ written notice to the other.
The investment advisory agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, the Manager and its officers, manager, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from the Company for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of the Manager’s services under the investment advisory agreement or otherwise as the Company’s Manager.
Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, the compensation and routine overhead expenses of the investment professionals of the Company’s management team and their respective staffs, when and to the extent engaged in providing management and investment advisory services to the Company, will be paid for by the Manager. The Company will bear all other costs and expenses of its operations and transactions.
The Manager, NGP Investment Advisor, LP, was formed in 2004 and maintains an office at 1221 McKinney Street, Suite 2975, Houston, Texas 77010. The Manager’s sole activity is to perform management and investment advisory services for the Company. The Manager is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
The foregoing description of the investment advisory agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the document, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, and is incorporated herein by reference.
Administration Agreement
The Company has entered into an administration agreement with the Administrator, under which the Administrator furnishes the Company with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Under the administration agreement, the Administrator also performs, or oversees the performance by third parties of, the Company’s required administrative services, which include being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports to the Company’s stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Administrator assists in determining and publishing the Company’s net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of the Company’s tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Company’s stockholders and generally oversees the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. To the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, the Administrator may also provide on the Company’s behalf, significant managerial assistance to the Company’s portfolio companies. Payments under the agreement are equal to amounts based upon the allocable portion of the Administrator’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with administering the Company’s business. The Administrator bills the Company for charges under the administration agreement monthly in arrears. The agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party and will automatically terminate in the event of its “assignment” (as defined in the 1940 Act).
Of the $510,915 in accounts payable as of March 31, 2008, $206,265 was due to the Administrator for expenses incurred on the Company’s behalf for the month of March 2008. By comparison, $225,148 was due to the Administrator for expenses incurred on the Company’s behalf for the month of December 2007.
The administration agreement was originally approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on November 9, 2004. The administration agreement provides that unless terminated earlier the agreement will continue in effect until November 9, 2006, and from year-to-year thereafter provided such continuance is approved at least annually by (i) the Company’s Board of Directors and (ii) a majority of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors who are not parties to the administration agreement or “interested persons” of any such party. On November 1, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors, including all of the independent directors, approved the continuation of the administration agreement through November 9, 2008.
Note 7: Federal Income Taxes
The Company intends to qualify for tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a RIC, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on the portion of its investment company taxable income and net capital gain (i.e., realized net long term capital gains in excess of realized net short term capital losses) distributed to stockholders. To qualify as a RIC, the Company is required, among other things, to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, and to meet certain asset diversification requirements.
The Company met all RIC requirements and distributed substantially all of its investment company taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007. Thus, the Company did not incur any federal income tax liability for any of these periods.
The following Company consolidated subsidiaries are subject to federal income taxes for the period ended March 31, 2008: NGPC Asset Holdings, LP, NGPC Asset Holdings II, LP, NGPC Asset Holdings III, LP and NGPC Asset Holdings IV, LP. The difference between the effective income tax rate of (0.93%) and the statutory federal tax rate of 34% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 is primarily attributable to RIC investment company taxable income that generally will not be subject to federal income tax.
Note 8: Reclassifications
GAAP requires adjustments to certain components of net assets to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on total net assets or net asset value per share. The table below summarizes the reclassifications from undistributed net investment income (loss), undistributed net realized capital gain (loss), and paid-in capital in excess of par for the year ended December 31, 2007, as restated. These reclassifications are primarily due to non-deductible meal expenses, non-deductible excise taxes and income and expenses from wholly owned subsidiaries.
Unrelated to the restatement, the Company has also reclassified certain balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows amounts to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications were primarily related to the disaggregation of investments in portfolio securities, investment income, net realized capital gain (loss) on investments and net unrealized gain (loss) on investments into separate classifications according to level of control. See Note 2 for a summary of these reclassified amounts.
| | Undistributed | | | Undistributed | | | Paid-in Capital | |

Year | | Income (Loss) | | | Capital Gain (Loss) | | | of Par | |
| | | | | | | | | |
2007, as restated | | $ | 120,359 | | | $ | 140,390 | | | $ | (260,749 | ) |
Note 9: Commitments and Contingencies
As of March 31, 2008, the Company had investments in or commitments to fund loan facilities to 15 portfolio companies totaling $306 million, on which $279 million was drawn. In addition, the Company has continuing obligations under the investment advisory agreement with the Manager and the administration agreement with the Administrator. The agreements provide that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, the Manager, the Administrator and its officers, managers, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with them will be entitled to indemnification from the Company for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of the Manager’s or Administrator’s services under the agreements or otherwise as the Company’s investment adviser or administrator. The agreements also provide that the Manager, the Administrator and their affiliates will not be liable to the Company or any stockholder for any error of judgment, mistake of law, any loss or damage with respect to any of the Company’s investments or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Manager or the Administrator in connection with the performance of any of their duties or obligations under the agreements or otherwise as investment adviser or administrator to the Company, except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the 1940 Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services. In the normal course of business, the Company enters into a variety of undertakings containing a variety of representations that may expose the Company to some risk of loss. The amount of future loss, if any, arising from such undertakings, while not quantifiable, is not expected to be significant.
Note 10: Fair Value
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 157, which establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of this Statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.
As of January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157. The Company has performed an analysis of all existing investments and derivative instruments to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination. Based on this assessment, the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s net asset value. However, the adoption of the standard does require the Company to provide additional disclosures about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain measurements on changes in net assets for the reportable periods as contained in the Company’s periodic filings.
SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following three broad categories:
· | Level 1 — Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which the Company has access at the date of measurement. |
· | Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers. |
· | Level 3 — Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based on the best available information. |
The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2008:
| | | | | | | | Prices with | | | | |
| | | | | Quoted Prices | | | Observable | | | | |

The $467,996 of net unrealized losses presented in the table above relates to investments that are still held at March 31, 2008, and the Company presents these unrealized losses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations as net increase (decrease) in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on portfolio securities and corporate notes.
Note 11: Subsequent Events
On April 15, 2008 the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 3,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per share of $16.00, raising approximately $55.8 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. A shelf registration statement relating to the sale of shares in this offering has been filed with the SEC and has become effective. The underwriters for the offering were Raymond James & Associates, Inc., Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and BB&T Capital Markets, a division of Scott & Stringfellow, Inc. The Company has granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 555,000 shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, if any. On April 16, 2008, the Company used the $56.2 million net proceeds of this offering plus an additional $8.8 million of cash on hand to repay the outstanding balance on its $65 million investment credit facility.
On April 25, 2008, the Company announced that the underwriters had exercised a portion of the over-allotment granted in connection with the Company’s recent public offering of common stock and had purchased an additional 386,388 shares of common stock at a price per share of $16.00, bringing total net proceeds of the offering to approximately $61.7 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. A total of 168,612 shares remain available for purchase under the underwriters’ over-allotment option during the remainder of its 30-day term. The Company will use proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment to fund additional investments.
On April 30, 2008, the Company closed a $30 million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Facility”) with Greenleaf Investments LLC, a private company based in Victoria, Texas (“Greenleaf”). The Company acted as agent and sole lender for the Facility. Initial availability under the Facility is $12.5 million with approximately $10.5 million funded at closing. The Facility is secured by first liens on substantially all of Greenleaf’s assets. As partial consideration for providing the Facility, the Company received an overriding royalty interest in Greenleaf’s properties. Proceeds from the Facility will be used by Greenleaf to acquire certain properties in Victoria County, Texas, to develop additional oil and gas properties and to fund capital expenditures. Greenleaf is an oil and gas producer with interests in production located along the Texas Gulf Coast.
Also on April 30, 2008, the Company made a follow-on investment in Tammany Oil & Gas, LLC, an existing portfolio company. Availability under this facility was increased from $30.0 million to $34.0 million. The Company funded an additional $6.2 million, which was used to acquire certain producing properties in the federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Following the investment, there is approximately $29.5 million outstanding under this facility.

Overview
We are a financial services company created to invest primarily in debt securities of small and mid-size private energy companies, which we generally define as companies that have net asset values or annual revenues of less than $500 million and are not issuers of publicly traded securities. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company, or a BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act, and, as such, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in “qualifying assets,” which are securities of private or thinly traded public U.S. companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. In addition, for federal income tax purposes we operate so as to be treated as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. Pursuant to these elections, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income and capital gains we distribute to our stockholders.
Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt and equity investments with certain equity components. A key focus area for our targeted investments in the energy industry is domestic exploration and production businesses and midstream businesses that gather, process and transport oil and natural gas. We also evaluate investment opportunities in such businesses as coal, power, electricity, energy services and alternative energy. Our investments will generally range in size from $10 million to $50 million; however, we may invest more or less depending on market conditions and our Manager’s view of a particular investment opportunity. Our targeted investments primarily consist of debt instruments, including senior and subordinated loans combined in one facility, sometimes with an equity component, and subordinated loans with equity components. We may also invest in preferred stock and other equity securities on a stand-alone basis.
Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to energy companies, the level of acquisition and divestiture activity for such companies, the level and volatility of energy commodity prices, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make. We believe that, for energy companies, the availability of debt capital from banks, mezzanine providers and alternative investment vehicles such as hedge funds has remained strong over the last 12 months and has continued to put downward pressure on spreads. However, we do not expect this availability of capital to impair our ability to make attractive long-term investment decisions with our capital. We remain committed to our underwriting and investment disciplines in selectively investing in appropriate risk-reward opportunities within the energy sector.
We generate revenue in the form of interest income on the debt securities that we own, dividend income on any common or preferred stock that we own and capital gains or losses on any debt or equity securities that we acquire in portfolio companies and subsequently sell. Our investments, if in the form of debt securities, typically have a term of three to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. To the extent achievable, we seek to collateralize our investments by obtaining security interests in our portfolio companies' assets. We also may acquire minority or majority equity interests in our portfolio companies, which may pay cash or in-kind dividends on a recurring or otherwise negotiated basis. In addition, we may generate revenue in other forms including commitment, origination, structuring, administration or due diligence fees; fees for providing managerial assistance; and possibly consultation fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments are recognized as earned.
Portfolio and Investment Activity
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, we added one new company to our portfolio and one company repaid its facility. In January 2008, BSR Alto’s Term Loan was fully repaid at par from proceeds from the sale of its assets to a third party. As of September 30, 2007, we had written down the value of our investment in the BSR Alto Term Loan by $0.5 million. Upon repayment, this impairment was recovered in full.
In March 2008, we closed a $15 million investment in BioEnergy International, LLC, or BioEnergy, a private, alternative fuels and specialty chemicals company based in Quincy, Massachusetts. The investment consists of a $5 million participation in a $30 million Senior Secured Tranche Construction Loan and a $10 million participation in a $62 million Senior Secured Notes issue. As partial consideration for providing the investment, we received limited liability company units in a subsidiary of BioEnergy and warrants in BioEnergy. Proceeds from the investment will be used by BioEnergy to construct a fully contracted 108 million gallons per year ethanol plant in Clearfield County, Pennsylvania and to fund development of bio-refinery technologies .
Also during the quarter, we sold a $20 million senior NPI participation in the Anadarko Petroleum Company 2007-III Drilling Fund to another financial institution.
Following these transactions, as of March 31, 2008, our investment portfolio consisted of 15 portfolio companies invested as follows: 38.1% in senior secured term loans, 6.9% in senior subordinated secured notes, 0.4% in participating convertible preferred stock, 1.9% in corporate notes, 6.5% in member and partnership units and 11.8% in net profits interests. The balance of our investment portfolio (as a percentage of the whole portfolio) was comprised 32.4% of U.S. Treasury Bills, and 2.0% of cash and cash equivalents.
At March 31, 2008, the weighted average yield on targeted portfolio investments, exclusive of capital gains, was 10.7%. The weighted average yield of our corporate notes was 5.8%. The weighted average yield of our U.S. Treasury Bills and cash equivalents was 2.72%. The weighted average yield on our total capital invested at March 31, 2008 was 7.82%.
By comparison, at March 31, 2007, the weighted average yield on targeted portfolio investments, exclusive of capital gains, was 12.5%. The weighted average yield of our corporate notes was 5.5%. The weighted average yield of our U.S. Treasury Bills and cash equivalents was 5.0%. The weighted average yield on our total capital invested at March 31, 2007 was 9.9%.
Yields are computed using interest rates as of the balance sheet date and include amortization of loan discount points, original issue discount and market premium or discount, royalty interest income, net profits income and other similar investment income, weighted by their respective costs when averaged.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as critical accounting policies.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and include the accounts of the company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the operations and financial condition for the periods presented. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in a money market fund. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value.
Prepaid Assets
Prepaid assets consist of premiums paid for directors’ and officers’ insurance and fidelity bonds with policy terms of one year, fees associated with the establishment of the credit facility, and registration expenses related to our shelf filing. Such premiums and fees are amortized monthly on a straight line basis over the term of the policy or credit facility. Registration expenses are deferred and will be charged as a reduction of capital upon the sale of shares.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We place our cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in checking accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.
Valuation of Investments
Investments are carried at fair value, as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. On a quarterly basis, the investment team of our Manager prepares valuations for all of the assets in our portfolio and presents the valuations to our valuation committee and Board of Directors. The valuations are determined and recommended by the valuation committee to our Board of Directors, which reviews and ratifies the final portfolio valuations.
Investments in securities for which market quotations are readily available are recorded in the financial statements at such market quotations as of the valuation date adjusted for appropriate liquidity discounts, if applicable. For investments in securities for which market quotations are unavailable, or which have various degrees of trading restrictions, the investment team of our Manager prepares valuation analyses, as generally described below.
Using the most recently available financial statements, forecasts and, when applicable, comparable transaction data, the investment team of our Manager prepares valuation analyses for the various securities in our investment portfolio. These valuation analyses are prepared using traditional valuation methodologies, which rely on estimates of the asset values and enterprise values of portfolio companies issuing securities.
The methodologies for determining asset valuations include estimates based on: the liquidation or sale value of a portfolio company’s assets, the discounted value of expected future net cash flows from the assets and third party valuations of a portfolio company’s assets, such as engineering reserve reports of oil and natural gas properties. Our Manager considers some or all of the above valuation methods to determine the estimated asset value of a portfolio company.
The methodologies for determining enterprise valuations include estimates based on: valuations of comparable public companies, recent sales of comparable companies, the value of recent investments in the equity securities of a portfolio company and also on the methodologies used for asset valuations. The investment team of our Manager considers some or all of the above valuation methods to determine the estimated enterprise value of a portfolio company.
Debt Securities: We record our investments in non-convertible debt securities at fair value which generally approximates cost plus amortized original issue discount, or OID, to the extent that the estimated asset or enterprise value of the portfolio company exceeds the outstanding debt of the portfolio company. We record our investment in convertible debt securities at fair value which generally approximates the higher of: 1) cost plus amortized OID, to the extent that the estimated asset or enterprise value of the portfolio company equals or exceeds the outstanding debt of the portfolio company; and 2) our pro rata share, upon conversion, of the residual equity value of the portfolio company available after deducting all outstanding debt from its estimated enterprise value. If the estimated asset or enterprise value is less than the sum of the value of our debt investment and all other debt securities of the portfolio company pari passu or senior to our debt investment, we reduce the value of our debt investment beginning with our junior-most debt investment such that the asset or enterprise value less the value of the outstanding pari passu or senior debt is zero.
Equity Securities: We record our investments in preferred and common equity securities (including warrants or options to acquire equity securities) at fair value based on our pro rata share of the residual equity value available after deducting all outstanding debt from the estimated enterprise value.
Property-Based Equity Participation Rights: We record our investments in overriding royalty and net profits interests at fair value based on a multiple of cash flows generated by such investments, multiples from transactions involving the sale of comparable assets and/or the discounted value of expected future net cash flows from such investments. Appropriate cash flow multiples are derived from the review of comparable transactions involving similar assets. The discounted value of future net cash flows is derived, when appropriate, from third party valuations of a portfolio company’s assets, such as engineering reserve reports of oil and gas properties.
Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. Additionally, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different from the valuations currently assigned.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements.
As of January 1, 2008, we adopted SFAS No. 157. We performed an analysis of all existing investments to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination. Based on this assessment, the adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our net asset value.
Securities Transactions, Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
All securities transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. Premiums and discounts are accreted into interest income using the effective interest method. Detachable warrants, other equity securities or property interests such as overriding royalty interests obtained in conjunction with the acquisition of debt securities are recorded separately from the debt securities at their initial fair value, with a corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the associated debt security. Income from overriding royalty interests is recognized as received and the recorded assets are charged depletion using the unit of production depletion method. The portion of the loan origination fees paid that represent additional yield or discount on a loan are deferred and accreted into interest income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income and any unamortized premium or discount is recorded as a realized gain or loss. Market premiums or discounts on acquired loans or fixed income investments are accreted into interest income using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date. Accruing interest or dividends on investments is deferred when it is determined that the interest or dividend is not collectible. Collectability of the interest and dividends is assessed, based on many factors including the portfolio company’s ability to service its loan based on current and projected cash flows as well as the current valuation of the portfolio company’s assets.
Payment-in-Kind Interest
We may have investments in our portfolio that contain payment-in-kind, or PIK, provisions. PIK interest or dividends, computed at the contractual rate specified in each investment agreement, are added to the principal balance of the investment and recorded as interest or dividend income. For investments with PIK interest or dividends, we base income accruals on the principal balance including any PIK. If the portfolio company’s asset valuation is not sufficient to cover the contractual interest, we will not accrue interest or dividend income on the investment. To maintain our RIC status, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders in the form of dividends, even though we have not yet collected the cash.
Fee Income Recognition
Fees primarily include financial advisory, transaction structuring, loan administration, commitment and prepayment fees. Financial advisory fees represent amounts received for providing advice and analysis to companies and are recognized as earned when such services are performed provided collection is probable. Transaction structuring fees represent amounts received for structuring, financing, and executing transactions and are generally payable only if the transaction closes. Such fees are deferred and accreted into interest income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Commitment fees represent amounts received for committed funding and are generally payable whether or not the transaction closes. On transactions that close within the commitment period, commitment fees are deferred and accreted into interest income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Commitment fees on transactions that do not close are generally recognized over the time period the commitment is outstanding. Prepayment and loan administration fees are recognized as they are received.
Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation
Realized capital gains or losses on portfolio securities and corporate notes are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, considering unamortized fees and prepayment premiums and without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the year, net of recoveries. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when capital gains or losses are realized.
Dividends
Dividends to stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. We currently intend that our distributions each year will be sufficient to maintain our status as a RIC for federal income tax purposes and to eliminate our liability for federal excise taxes. We intend to make distributions to stockholders on a quarterly basis of substantially all net taxable income. We also intend to make distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. However, we may in the future decide to retain capital gains for investment and designate such retained dividends as a deemed distribution. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by our Board of Directors each quarter and is based on the annual taxable earnings estimated by our Manager. Based on that estimate, a dividend is declared each quarter and paid shortly thereafter.
Results of Operations
Investment Income
Investment income for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 was $9.5 million with $8.2 million attributable to targeted investments in 13 portfolio companies, $0.2 million from corporate notes and $1.1 million attributable to investments in cash equivalents. This compares to investment income for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 of $8.5 million with $6.7 million attributable to targeted investments in 16 portfolio companies, $0.2 million from corporate notes, $0.1 million in fee income from third parties and affiliates, and $1.5 million attributable to investments in cash equivalents, agency notes and auction rate securities.
Operating Expenses
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, as restated, operating expenses were $5.4 million compared to $4.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as restated. The 2008 amount consisted of investment advisory and management fees of $1.8 million, insurance expenses, administrative services fees, professional fees, directors’ fees and other general and administrative expenses of $1.2 million and credit facility interest and fees of $2.4 million. In comparison, for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, investment advisory and management fees were $1.6 million, insurance expenses, administrative services fees, professional fees, directors’ fees and other general and administrative expenses were $0.9 million and credit facility interest and fees were $1.6 million. See Note 6 for discussion on the effects of the restatement on management fees.
Operating expenses for the three month periods include our allocable portion of the total organizational and operating expenses incurred by us, our Manager, and NGP Administration, LLC, which we refer to as our administrator, as determined by our Board of Directors and representatives of our Manager and our Administrator. According to the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the base management fee is calculated quarterly as 0.45% of the average of our total assets as of the end of the two previous quarters.
Net Investment Income Before Income Taxes
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, net investment income before income taxes was $4.1 million compared to $4.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, primarily due to increased interest income on the higher portfolio balances offset by higher management fees, general and administrative expenses and interest and credit facility fees.
Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, as restated, the increase in net unrealized depreciation before income taxes was $1.7 million, comprised of a $1.4 million decrease in portfolio fair value and a $0.3 million decrease in the fair value of corporate notes. This compares to an increase of $3.7 million net unrealized appreciation before income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as restated, consisting of a $3.6 million increase in portfolio fair value and a $0.1 million increase in the fair value of corporate notes.
Net Realized Gains
There were no realized capital gains or losses for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 or 2007.
Net Increase in Stockholders’ Equity from Operations
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, as restated, we had a net increase in stockholders’ equity (net assets) resulting from operations of $2.4 million, or $0.14 per share, compared to $7.4 million, or $0.42 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as restated. The $5.0 million, or $0.28 per share net decrease is attributable to the $5.4 million decrease in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments during the first quarter of 2008 less tax provision of $0.7 million.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, we generated cash from operations, including interest earned on our portfolio securities, as well as our investments in corporate notes, U.S. government securities and other high quality debt securities that mature in one year or less. At March 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.7 million, investments in U.S. Treasury Bills of $144.0 million and investments in corporate notes of $8.7 million.
As of March 31, 2008, we had investments in or commitments to fund loan facilities to 15 portfolio companies totaling $306 million, of which $279 million was drawn. We expect to fund our investments in 2008 from income earned on our portfolio and temporary investments and from borrowings under our Credit Facilities. (See description under “Note 3: Credit Facility” above.) In the future, we may also fund a portion of our investments with issuances of equity or senior debt securities. We may also securitize a portion of our investments. We expect our primary use of funds to be investments in portfolio companies, cash distributions to holders of our common stock and payment of fees and other operating expenses.
Contractual Obligations
A summary of our contractual payment obligations at March 31, 2008 is as follows:
| | | | | Less than | | | | | | | | | More than | |
Contractual Obligations | | Total | | | 1 Year | | | 1-3 Years | | | 3-5 Years | | | 5 Years | |

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Currently, we do not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices.
Dividends
We have elected to operate our business so as to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain our RIC status, we must distribute at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income” (which generally consists of ordinary income and realized net short-term gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, reduced by deductible expenses) and net tax-exempt interest. In order to avoid certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we will be required to distribute at least 98% of our ordinary income and net capital gains, and 100% of any income realized, but not distributed or deemed distributed, in preceding years. We currently intend to make sufficient distributions to satisfy the annual distribution requirement and to avoid the excise taxes.
We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage test for borrowings when applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act and due to provisions in our credit facilities. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of our status as a RIC. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions or distributions at a particular level.
Portfolio Credit Quality
We maintain a system to evaluate the credit quality of our investments. While incorporating quantitative analysis, this system is a qualitative assessment. This system is intended to reflect the overall performance of a portfolio company’s business, the collateral coverage of an investment, and other relevant factors. Based on this system, the overall credit quality of our targeted investment portfolio remained satisfactory in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. Of the 20 rated investments as of March 31, 2008, 2 investments declined in rating, 16 retained the same rating, and 2 new investments were previously unrated, when compared to the investments as of December 31, 2007. Investments approximating $36 million, or approximately 13% of the $277.7 million cost basis of targeted investments, are carried on our watch list due to slower than expected development of the assets supporting the investments or deterioration in asset coverage.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, we recorded additional unrealized depreciation of $1.5 million in the fair value of targeted investments to reflect the potential for loss of capital inherent in those investments. We placed one of these investments on non-accrual status effective January 1, 2008.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
There have been no material changes from the information provided in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to as the Exchange Act), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis and accumulated and made known to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as of the end of the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (March 31, 2008), the Company performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act.
After giving effect to the restatement referred to below and based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q/A conducted by our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported when required and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In light of this material weakness, the Company performed additional analysis and post-closing procedures to ensure the Company’s financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. After giving effect to the restatements referred to below, and subject to the statements below regarding our inability to maintain effective controls over the determination and reporting of the provision for income taxes, the Company’s management has concluded that the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q/A present fairly in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are attached as exhibits to this Form 10-Q/A. The disclosures set forth in this Item 4 contain information concerning (i) the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures referred to in paragraph 4 of the certifications, and (ii) material weaknesses in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting referred to in paragraph 5 of those certifications. Those certifications should be read in conjunction with this Item 4 for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by the certifications.
Discussion of Material Weakness
Management’s assessment identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As of March 31, 2008, the Company did not maintain effective controls over the determination and reporting of the provision for income taxes. This material weakness was initially disclosed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. As of December 31, 2009, our management concluded that we had not yet remediated this previously disclosed material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, management did not perform a sufficiently precise review of the 2007, 2008 and 2009 financial statements to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the Company’s calculation of its income tax provision and deferred income tax assets and liabilities. This deficiency resulted in the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008 (and the unaudited selected quarterly data for each of the quarters in 2007 and 2008 and the first three quarters in 2009), and results in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Remediation Efforts
The remediation efforts, as outlined below, are designed to address the material weakness identified by management and to strengthen the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Beginning in the first quarter of 2009, the Company implemented the following remediation steps to address this material weakness discussed above and to improve its internal controls over financial reporting:
| · | improved procedures for the calculation and reconciliation process of our deferred income tax assets and liabilities, including validation of underlying supporting data; |
| · | engaged external tax experts to support the Company’s financial closing and reporting process; and |
| · | enhanced quarterly management review of the calculation of the deferred income tax assets and liabilities and underlying supporting data. |
We believe that these remediation actions will represent ongoing improvement measures. While we have taken steps to remediate the material weakness, additional measures may be required. The Company anticipates that it will complete its testing of the additional internal control processes designed to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness in 2010. We will continue to assess the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in connection with our management’s tests of internal control over financial reporting in conjunction with our annual and quarterly reports.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not currently a defendant in any material legal proceeding, nor to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Except as provided below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
Additional Risk Factors
We reported a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which resulted in material misstatements in our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2008 and each of the quarters in 2007 and 2008 and the first three quarters of 2009 that required us to restate certain of our historical financial statements. If we fail to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, investor confidence in our reported financial information and the trading price of our securities.
Our Board of Directors, and the members of our Audit Committee, upon management’s recommendation, determined to restate certain of our historical financial statements, including the financial statements for the period of this report. Our management concluded that the accounting errors that necessitated the restatement resulted from a control deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting constituting a material weakness. Specifically, our management concluded that we did not maintain effective controls over the determination and provision for income taxes. See Note 2, Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements in “Part I – Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements” and “Part I – Item 4. Controls and Procedures.”
Management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. As described in “Part I – Item 4. Controls and Procedures,” while the Company has taken steps to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness, the material weakness existed throughout the quarterly periods of 2009, and at December 31, 2009, the Company had not yet completed its assessment as to whether the material weakness had been fully remediated. The Company anticipates that it will complete its testing of the additional internal control processes designed to remediate the previously disclosed material weakness in 2010. Until it is fully remediated, this material weakness could lead to errors in our reported financial results and could have a material adverse effect on our operations, investor confidence in our reported financial information and the trading price of our securities.
Further, we cannot assure you that additional significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could result in additional significant deficiencies or material weaknesses, and cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations and annual auditor attestation reports regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated thereunder. The existence of a material weakness could result in errors in our financial statements that could result in a restatement of financial statements, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, leading to a decline in our stock price.
We may be subject to the risks associated with the ethanol industry.
The ethanol industry is subject to many risks which may adversely affect the market price of ethanol. For example, overcapacity in the ethanol industry may result in a decrease in the market price of ethanol if the demand for ethanol does not grow at the same pace as increases in supply. In addition, the ethanol industry is highly competitive, and other companies presently in the market, or that are about to enter the market, could adversely affect the market price of ethanol. Moreover, because corn is the principal raw material used to produce ethanol, ethanol companies in general are directly affected by the cost and supply of corn. Changes in the price and supply of corn are subject to and determined by market forces over which we have no or little control, including overall supply and demand, government programs and policies, weather, and other factors. Furthermore, because growth and demand for ethanol may be driven primarily by federal and state government policies, a change in government policies favorable to ethanol may cause demand for ethanol to decline. These favorable government policies include the national renewable fuels standard, and various federal ethanol tax incentives that assist the ethanol industry. The continuation of these policies is uncertain, which means that demand for ethanol may decline if these policies change or are discontinued. A decline in the demand of ethanol is likely to cause lower ethanol prices. In addition, tariffs on imported ethanol, which currently effectively limit imported ethanol into the United States, could be reduced or eliminated, which may in turn negatively affect the demand for domestic ethanol and the price at which domestic ethanol is sold.
Revised Risk Factors
We may be exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates.
General interest rate fluctuations may have a negative impact on our investments and investment opportunities and, accordingly, may have a material adverse effect on investment objectives and our rate of return on invested capital. Because we may borrow money to make investments, our net investment income is dependent upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest these funds. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. As of March 31, 2008, approximately 19% of the investments at fair value in our portfolio were at fixed rates, while approximately 81% were at variable rates. Trading prices for debt that pays a fixed rate of return tend to fall as interest rates rise. Trading prices tend to fluctuate more for fixed-rate securities that have longer maturities. Although we have no policy governing the maturities of our investments, under current market conditions we expect that we will invest in a portfolio of debt generally having maturities of three to seven years, but may have longer maturities. This means that, to the extent we fund longer term fixed rate investments with shorter term floating rate borrowings, we will be subject to greater risk (other things being equal) than a fund invested solely in shorter term securities. A decline in the prices of the debt we own could adversely affect the trading price of our shares.
If we issue senior securities, such as debt or preferred stock, we will be exposed to additional risks.
We may issue debt securities or preferred stock, and/or borrow money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer to collectively as senior securities, up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. We may issue senior securities to make new or follow-on investments, to maintain our RIC status or to pay contingencies and expenses. We will be permitted under the 1940 Act to issue senior securities if, immediately after the borrowing or issuance, we will have an asset coverage of at least 200%. That is, we may borrow funds in an amount up to 50% of the value of our assets (including investments made with borrowed funds). As of March 31, 2008, our asset coverage for senior securities was 233%.
The amount and nature of any borrowings will depend on a number of factors over which we have no control, including general economic conditions and conditions in the financial markets. We may also need to borrow funds to make qualifying investments to maintain our RIC status. Therefore, we may need to raise additional capital, which we may elect to finance in part through a credit facility. We may not be able to obtain a credit facility on terms that we find acceptable, if at all. The unavailability of funds from commercial banks or other sources on favorable terms could inhibit the growth of our business and have a material adverse effect on our performance.
