FULL CIRCLE CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATMENTS (Unaudited)
December 31, 2014
Note 1. Organization
References herein to “we”, “us” or “our” refer to Full Circle Capital Corporation and Subsidiaries (“Full Circle Capital” or the “Company”) unless the context specifically requires otherwise.
We were formed as Full Circle Capital Corporation, a Maryland corporation, on April 16, 2010 and were funded in an initial public offering, or IPO, completed on August 31, 2010. We are a non-diversified, closed-end investment company that has filed an election to be treated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we expect to qualify annually as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. We invest primarily in senior secured term debt issued by middle-market companies. Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. Financial information for the year ended June 30, 2014 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates and Basis of Presentation
The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, creditworthiness of our portfolio companies and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.
Interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim period, have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015.
The June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 Consolidated Financial Statements were reclassified in order to be consistent with the new format used for the December 31, 2014 Consolidated Financial Statements.
Investment Classification
We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. We classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated Investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities owned by another company or person.
Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments in other, non-security financial instruments, such as limited partnerships or private companies, are recorded on the basis of subscription date or redemption date, as applicable. Amounts for investments recognized or derecognized but not yet settled are reported as receivables for investments sold and payables for investments acquired, respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Basis of Consolidation
Under the 1940 Act rules, the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are generally precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us. Our financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of Full Circle West, Inc., FC New Media, Inc., TransAmerican Asset Servicing Group, Inc., FC New Specialty Foods, Inc., and FC Takoda Holdings, LLC, our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Valuation of Investments
In accordance with GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealers or market makers. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are not considered to be the best estimate of fair value are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). Because the Company expects that there will not be a readily available market value for many of the investments in the Company’s portfolio, it is expected that many of the Company’s portfolio investments’ values will be determined in good faith by the Board in accordance with a documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by the Board and in accordance with GAAP. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
In determining fair value, Full Circle Capital’s Board uses various valuation approaches. In accordance with GAAP, a fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.
Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Board. Unobservable inputs reflect the Board’s assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
Securities for which reliable market quotations are not readily available or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Board or the Audit Committee of the Board (the “Audit Committee”), does not represent fair value, are valued as follows:
| 1. | The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment; |
| 2. | Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with the Company’s senior management. Independent third-party valuation firms are engaged by, or on behalf of, the Audit Committee to conduct independent appraisals or review management’s preliminary valuations or make their own independent assessment, for certain assets; |

| 3. | The Audit Committee discusses valuations and recommends the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Company and, where appropriate, the independent valuation firms; and |
| 4. | The Board then discusses the valuations and determines in good faith the fair value of each investment in the portfolio based upon input from the Company, estimates from the independent valuation firms and the recommendations of the Audit Committee. |
GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 securities. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and is affected by a wide variety of factors including, the type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Those estimated values do not necessarily represent the amounts that may be ultimately realized due to the occurrence of future circumstances that cannot be reasonably determined. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Board in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including periods of market dislocation. In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many securities. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified to a lower level within the fair value hierarchy.

Valuation Techniques
Senior and Subordinated Secured Loans
The Company’s portfolio consists primarily of private debt instruments. Investments for which market quotations are readily available (“Level 2 Debt”) are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealers. For other debt investments (“Level 3 Debt”) market quotations are not available and other techniques are used to determine fair value. The Company considers its Level 3 debt to be performing if the borrower is not in default, the borrower is remitting payments in a timely manner, the loan is in covenant compliance or is otherwise not deemed to be impaired. In determining the fair value of the performing Level 3 debt, the Board considers fluctuations in current interest rates, the trends in yields of debt instruments with similar credit ratings, financial condition of the borrower, economic conditions, success and prepayment fees, and other relevant factors, both qualitative and quantitative. In the event that a Level 3 debt instrument is not performing, as defined above, the Board may evaluate the value of the collateral utilizing the same framework described above for a performing loan to determine the value of the Level 3 debt instrument.
This evaluation will be updated no less than quarterly for Level 3 debt instruments that are not performing, and more frequently for time periods where there are significant changes in the investor base or significant changes in the perceived value of the underlying collateral. The collateral value will be analyzed on an ongoing basis using internal metrics, appraisals, third-party valuation agents and other data as may be acquired and analyzed by management and the Board.
Investments in Private Companies
The Board determines the fair value of its investments in private companies where no market quotations are readily available by incorporating valuations that consider the evaluation of financing and sale transactions with third parties, expected cash flows and market-based information, including comparable transactions, and performance multiples, among other factors, including work performed by third-party valuation agents. These nonpublic investments are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Warrants
The Board will ascribe value to warrants based on fair value analyses that can include discounted cash flow analyses, option pricing models, comparable analyses and other techniques as deemed appropriate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s long-term obligations are disclosed in Note 8.
Cash
The Company places its cash with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank N.A. and Santander Bank, N.A. f/k/a Sovereign Bank. N.A. (“Santander Bank”), and at times, cash held in such accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit. The Company may invest a portion of its cash in money market funds, within the limitations of the 1940 Act.
Revenue Recognition
Realized gain (loss) on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their stated costs. Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.
Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, closing and/or commitment fees associated with senior and subordinated secured
20
TABLE OF CONTENTS

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)
loans are accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Upon the prepayment of a senior or subordinated secured loan, any unamortized loan origination, closing and/or commitment fees are recorded as interest income. Generally, when a payment default occurs on a loan in the portfolio, or if the Company otherwise believes that the issuer of the loan will not be able to make contractual interest payments, the Company may place the loan on non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on the loan until all principal and interest is current through payment, or until a restructuring occurs, and the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if a loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection or is viewed to be able to pay all amounts due if the loan were to be collected on through an investment in or sale of the business, the sale of the assets of the business, or some portion or combination thereof.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Structuring fees, excess deal deposits, prepayment fees and similar fees are recognized as Other Income as earned, usually when received. Other fee income, including administrative and unused line fees, is included in Other Income. Income from such sources was $445,348 and $1,206,288 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, respectively and $654,373 and 1,397,243 for the six months ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, respectively.
Change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments
Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.
From time to time, the Company may enter into a new transaction with a portfolio company as a result of the sale, merger, foreclosure, bankruptcy or other corporate event involving the portfolio company. In such cases, the Company may receive newly issued notes, securities and/or other consideration in exchange for, or resulting from, the cancellation of the instruments previously held by the Company with regard to that portfolio company. In such cases, the Company may experience a realized loss on the instrument being sold or cancelled, and, concurrently, an elimination of any previously recognized unrealized losses on the portfolio investment. Such elimination of unrealized loss is included on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as an increase in the Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments.
Federal and State Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies. We will be required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gains to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.
If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) each calendar year sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years (the “Minimum Distribution Amount”), we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by the which Minimum Distribution Amount exceeds the distributions for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies – (continued)
taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income.
Distributions
Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amounts, if any, of our monthly distributions are approved by our Board each quarter and are generally based upon our management’s estimate of our earnings for the quarter. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
Guarantees and Indemnification Agreements
We follow ASC Topic 460 — Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (“ASC 460”). The application of ASC 460 elaborates on the disclosure requirements of a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, for those guarantees that are covered by ASC 460, the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees. ASC 460 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 5 for further discussion of guarantees and indemnification agreements.
Per Share Information
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, and 2013, respectively, were the same since there are no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
Organizational Expenses and Offering Costs
The Company did not incur organizational expenses for the three or six months ended December 31, 2014, and 2013. The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1, “Expenses of Offering”. Deferred offering costs consist principally of legal and audit costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are related to an offering of equity securities. Such costs are charged against the gross proceeds of the offering or will be charged to the Company’s operations if the offering is not completed. Offering expenses related to the Company’s July 14, 2014 offering were $37,775. Refer to Note 6.
Capital Accounts
Certain capital accounts including undistributed net investment income, accumulated net realized gain or loss, accumulated net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, and paid-in capital in excess of par, are adjusted, at least annually, for permanent differences between book and tax. In addition, the character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08, Financial Services — Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to the Scope, Measurement, and Disclosure Requirements (“ASU 2013-08”). ASU 2013-08 amends the criteria that define an investment company, clarifies the measurement guidance and requires certain additional disclosures. Public companies are required to apply ASU 2013-08 prospectively for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013.
The Company does not believe that the adoption of any recently issued accounting standards had or will have a material impact on its current financial position and results of operations.

Note 3. Concentration of Credit Risk and Liquidity Risk
In the normal course of business, the Company maintains its cash balances in financial institutions, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company is subject to credit risk to the extent any financial institution with which it conducts business is unable to fulfill contractual obligations on its behalf. Management monitors the financial condition of such financial institutions and does not anticipate any losses from these counterparties.
The Company utilizes two financial institutions to provide financing, which are essential to its business. There are a number of other financial institutions available that could potentially provide the Company with financing. Management believes that such other financial institutions would likely be able to provide similar financing with generally comparable terms. However, a change in financial institutions at the present time could cause a delay in service provisioning or result in potential lost opportunities, which could adversely affect operating results.

Note 5. Related Party Agreements and Transactions
Investment Advisory Agreement
On June 24, 2014, the Board re-approved an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with Full Circle Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”) under which the Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, our Adviser: (i) determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes, (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments we make (including performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies); and (iii) closes and monitors investments we make.
The Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its services to us are not impaired. For providing these services, the Adviser receives a fee from us, consisting of two components, a base management fee and an incentive fee.
The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of our gross assets, as adjusted. For services rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets, as adjusted, at

Note 5. Related Party Agreements and Transactions – (continued)
the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately pro-rated.
The total base management fees earned by the Adviser for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, were $581,329 and $1,153,887, respectively. The total base management fee payable to the Adviser as of December 31, 2014, was $581,329, after reflecting payment of $1,048,153, for the six months ended December 31, 2014, and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities in Due to Affiliates. The total base management fees earned by the Adviser for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, were $382,489 and $791,747, respectively.
The incentive fee has two parts. The first part of the incentive fee (the “Income incentive fee”) is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement to Full Circle Service Company (the “Administrator”), and any interest expenses and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with pay in kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include organizational costs or any realized capital gains, computed net of all realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a hurdle of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized). Our net investment income used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of our gross assets used to calculate the 1.75% base management fee. We pay the Adviser an incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:
| • | no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle of 1.75%; |
| • | 100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized). We refer to this portion of our pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle but is less than 2.1875%) as the “catch-up.” The “catch-up” is meant to provide our investment adviser with 20% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter; and |
| • | 20% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized) is payable to the Adviser (once the hurdle is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 20% of all pre-incentive fee investment income thereafter is allocated to the Adviser). |
These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.
The second part of the incentive fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and will equal

20% of our realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees with respect to each of the investments in our portfolio, provided that, the incentive fee determined as of December 31, 2010 was calculated for a period of shorter than twelve calendar months to take into account any realized capital gains computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation from the inception of Full Circle Capital. There were no incentive fees earned on realized capital gains for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Income incentive fees of $526,242 and $916,092 were earned by the Adviser for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, respectively, and the total income incentive fee payable to the Adviser as of December 31, 2014 was $526,242, after reflecting payment of $759,982 during the six months ended December 31, 2014, and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities in Due to Affiliates. Income incentive fees of $474,897 and $789,636 were earned by the Adviser for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, respectively.
The Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Company for any operating expenses, excluding interest expenses, investment advisory and management fees, and offering expenses, in excess of 1.50% of our net assets, beginning with our fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2014 through the end of our fiscal year 2015. For our fiscal year 2016 and beyond, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse us for any operating expenses, excluding interest expenses, investment advisory and management fees, and offering expenses, in excess of 1.75% of our net assets. The expense reimbursements from the Adviser for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 were $248,373 and $531,047, respectively, and the total expense reimbursement payable by the Adviser as of December 31, 2014 was $308,882, after reflecting payment of $222,165 during the six months ended December 31, 2014 and is included in Due from Affiliate on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Adviser had agreed to reimburse the Company for any operating expenses, excluding interest expenses, investment advisory and management fees, and organizational and offering expenses, in excess of 2% of our net assets for the first twelve months following the completion of the initial public offering, which occurred on August 31, 2010.
Administration Agreement
On June 24, 2014, the Board re-approved an Administration Agreement with the Administrator under which the Administrator, among other things, furnishes us 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 of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records which we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders. In addition, the Administrator assists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an amount based upon our allocable portion of Full Circle Service Company’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions and our allocable portion of the compensation of our chief financial officer and our allocable portion of the compensation of any administrative support staff employed by the Administrator, directly or indirectly. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator will also provide on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies that request such assistance. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party.

The Administrator, and Conifer Asset Solutions LLC, f/k/a Vastardis Fund Services LLC (“Conifer” or the “Sub-Administrator”), may also provide administrative services to the Adviser. As a result, the Adviser also reimburses the Administrator and/or the Sub-Administrator for its allocable portion of the Administrator’s and/or Sub-Administrator’s overhead, including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions for Full Circle Advisors, and its allocable portion of the compensation of any administrative support staff. To the extent the Adviser or any of its affiliates manage other investment vehicles in the future, no portion of any administrative services provided by the Administrator to such other investment vehicles will be charged to us.
The Administration Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, the Administrator and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from Full Circle Capital for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of the Administrator’s services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for Full Circle Capital.
Sub-Administration Agreement
The Administrator has engaged Conifer to provide certain administrative services to us.

Note 8. Long Term Liabilities
Line of Credit
On June 3, 2013, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Santander Bank. The facility size was originally $32.5 million and replaced the Company’s First Capital Credit Facility. The Credit Facility was subsequently increased to $45.0 million on November 5, 2013. On September 12, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to our Credit Facility with Santander Bank, N.A. to increase the size of the facility from $45.0 million to $60.0 million and to provide additional criteria for eligibility of loans under the borrowing base under the credit facility. The Company has not exercised its option to expand the facility as of December 31, 2014.
The Credit Facility matures on June 3, 2016 and bears interest based on a tiered rate structure, depending upon utilization, ranging from LIBOR (one month, two month or three month, depending on the Company’s option) plus 3.25% to 4.00% per annum, or from Santander Bank’s prime rate plus 1.25% to 2.00% per annum, based on the Company’s election. As of December 31, 2014, one month LIBOR, two month LIBOR, and three month LIBOR respectively were: 0.17%, 0.21%, and 0.26%. As of December 31, 2014, the Prime Rate was 3.25%. In addition, a fee of 0.50% to 1.00% per annum, depending on utilization, is charged on unused amounts under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is secured by all of the Company’s assets. Under the Credit Facility, the Company has made certain customary representations and warranties, and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements, including a minimum balance sheet leverage ratio, for similar credit facilities. The Credit Facility includes usual and customary events of default for credit facilities of this nature.
The fees and expenses associated with opening and expanding the Credit Facility are being amortized over the term of the Credit Facility in accordance with ASC 470 — Debt. As of December 31, 2014, of the total $763,984 fees and expenses incurred, $410,767 remains to be amortized and is reflected as Deferred Credit Facility Fees on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
At December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $33,817,832 and $8,435,463, respectively under the Credit Facility, which amounts are included as Line of Credit in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Distribution Notes
On August 31, 2010, the Company entered into multiple senior unsecured notes (the “Distribution Notes”). The Distribution Notes consisted of $3,404,583 in senior unsecured notes, which bore interest at a fixed rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly in cash, and were scheduled to mature on February 28, 2014. The Distribution Notes were paid off at par plus accrued interest on July 3, 2013. At December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company had no Distribution Notes outstanding.

Note 8. Long Term Liabilities – (continued)
Notes Payable
On June 28, 2013, the Company issued $21,145,525 in aggregate principal amount of 8.25% Notes due June 30, 2020 (the “Notes”) (including a partial exercise of the underwriters’ overallotment option in July 2013) for net proceeds of $20,038,250 after deducting underwriting commissions of approximately $860,822 and offering expenses of $246,453.
On July 14, 2014, we closed an offering of our 8.25% fixed-rate notes due 2020. The Notes offering consisted of $12,500,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were sold at price of $25.375 plus accrued interest from June 30, 2014, a premium to par value of $25.00 per Note. The sale of the notes resulted in total gross proceeds of $12,687,500. The Notes are a further issuance of, rank equally in right of payment with, and form a single series with the $21,145,525 of currently outstanding Notes.
The offering expenses and underwriting commissions are being amortized over the term of the notes in accordance with ASC470 — Debt. As of December 31, 2014, of the total $1,338,440 issuance costs incurred, $911,922 remains to be amortized and is reflected as Deferred Debt Issuance Costs in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Additionally, $169,880 of the $187,500 premium related to the July 14, 2014 issuance remains unamortized and is included in Notes Payable in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated June 3, 2013, as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated June 28, 2013 (collectively, the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”). The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and rank senior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; equal in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness (including existing unsecured indebtedness that is later secured) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries or financing vehicles.

As of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the carrying amount of the Company’s outstanding Credit Facility approximated fair value. The fair values of the Company’s Credit Facility and Notes are determined in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value in terms of the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Company’s Notes is determined by utilizing market quotations from the measurement date.
Note 9. Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s assets recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy in accordance with ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). See Note 2 for a discussion of the Company’s policies.

The primary significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s debt securities (first lien debt, second lien debt and subordinated debt), including income-producing investments in funds, is the discount rate. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. In determining the discount rate, for the income, or yield, approach, the Company considers current market yields and multiples, portfolio company performance,

Note 9. Fair Value Measurements – (continued)
leverage levels and credit quality, among other factors in its analysis. Changes in one or more of these factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate discount rate to use in the income approach.
The primary significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s private equity and warrant investments is the EBITDA multiple, which is used to determine the Enterprise Value. Significant increases (decreases) in the Enterprise Value in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. To determine the Enterprise Value for the market approach, the Company considers current market trading and/or transaction multiples, portfolio company performance (financial ratios) relative to public and private peer companies and leverage levels, among other factors. Changes in one or more of these factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate multiple to use in the market approach.
The primary unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s warrant investments, when using an option pricing model, are the discount rate and volatility. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in the volatility in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Changes in one or more factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate discount rate or volatility to use in the valuation of a warrant using an option pricing model.
Note 10. Derivative Contracts
In the normal course of business, the Company may utilize derivative contracts in connection with its investment activities. Investments in derivative contracts are subject to additional risks that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment. The derivative activities and exposure to derivative contracts primarily involve equity price risks. In addition to the primary underlying risk, additional counterparty risk exists due to the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
Warrants
The warrants provide exposure and potential gains upon equity appreciation of the portfolio company’s equity value.
The value of a warrant has two components: time value and intrinsic value. A warrant has a limited life and expires on a certain date. As a warrant’s expiration date approaches, the time value of the warrant will decline. In addition, if the stock underlying the warrant declines in price, the intrinsic value of an “in the money” warrant will decline. Further, if the price of the stock underlying the warrant does not exceed the strike price of the warrant on the expiration date, the warrant will expire worthless. As a result, there is the potential for the entire value of an investment in a warrant to be lost.
The Company has written a warrant to sell within a limited time, a financial instrument at a contracted price based on differentials between specified prices. Written warrants may expose the Company to market risk of an unfavorable change in the financial instrument underlying the written warrant. The written warrant is on 360 of the Company’s 720 limited liability company interests in New Media West, LLC and has a strike price of $3,250,000, which increases over time to $3,500,000. This warrant expires on December 18, 2019. At December 31, 2014, the strike price is greater than the fair market value of the limited liability company interests of $0 and therefore has no intrinsic value.
Counterparty risk exists from the potential failure of an issuer of warrants to settle its exercised warrants. The maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk is the fair value of the contracts and the purchase price of the warrants. The Company’s Board of Directors considers the effects of counterparty risk when determining the fair value of its investments in warrants.

Overview
We are an externally managed non-diversified closed-end management investment company formed in April 2010, and have elected to be regulated as a business development company under the 1940 Act. Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We are managed by Full Circle Advisors, and Full Circle Service Company provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate.
We invest primarily in senior secured loans and, to a lesser extent, second liens loans, mezzanine loans and equity securities issued by lower middle-market companies that operate in a diverse range of industries. In our lending activities, we focus primarily on portfolio companies with both (i) tangible and intangible assets available as collateral and security against our loan to help mitigate our risk of loss, and (ii) cash flow to cover debt service. We believe this provides us with a more attractive risk adjusted return profile, with greater principal protection and likelihood of repayment.
Our investments generally range in size from $3 million to $10 million; however, we may make larger or smaller investments from time to time on an opportunistic basis. We focus primarily on senior secured loans and “stretch” senior secured loans, also referred to as “unitranche” loans, which combine characteristics of traditional first-lien senior secured loans and second-lien or subordinated loans. We believe that having a first lien, senior secured position provides us with greater control and security in the primary collateral of a borrower and helps to mitigate risk against loss of principal should a borrower default. Our stretch senior secured loans typically possess a greater advance rate against the borrower’s assets and cash flow, and accordingly carry a higher interest rate and/or greater equity participation, than traditional senior secured loans. This stretch senior secured loan instrument can provide borrowers with a more efficient and desirable solution than a senior bank line combined with a separate second lien or mezzanine loan obtained from another source. We also may invest in mezzanine, subordinated or unsecured loans. In addition, we may acquire equity or equity related interests from a borrower along with our debt investment. We attempt to protect against risk of loss on our debt investments by investing in borrowers with cash flows to cover debt service, while frequently securing our loans against tangible or intangible assets of our borrowers, which may include accounts receivable and contracts for services, and obtaining a favorable loan-to-value ratio, and in many cases, securing other financial protections or credit enhancements, such as personal guarantees from the principals of our borrowers, make well agreements and other forms of collateral, rather than lending predominantly against anticipated cash flows of our borrowers. We believe this allows us more options and greater likelihood of repayment from refinancing, asset sales of our borrowers and/or amortization.
We generally seek to invest in lower middle-market companies in areas that we believe have been historically under-serviced, especially during and after the 2008/2009 credit crisis. These areas include industries that are outside the focus of mainstream institutions or investors due to required industry-specific knowledge or are too small to attract interest from larger investment funds or other financial institutions. Because we believe there are fewer banks and specialty finance companies focused on lending to these lower middle-market companies, we believe we can negotiate more favorable terms on our debt investments in these companies than those that would be available for debt investments in comparable larger, more mainstream borrowers. Such favorable terms may include higher debt yields, lower leverage levels, more significant covenant protection and/or greater equity grants than typical of other transactions. We generally seek to avoid competing directly with other capital providers with respect to specific transactions in order to avoid the less favorable terms we believe are typically associated with such competitive bidding processes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
On June 4, 2014, we formed FC Capital Investment Partners (“FCIP”), a multiple series private fund, for which we serve as the managing member and investment adviser. FCIP was formed as a Delaware limited liability company and operates under a Limited Liability Company agreement dated June 13, 2014. FCIP closed its first series on June 17, 2014, raising approximately $5.6 million in capital from investors. FCIP closed its second series on September 25, 2014, raising approximately $10.0 million in capital from investors. We may co-invest in certain portfolio investments from time to time with one or more series issued by FCIP where we determine that the aggregate available investment opportunity exceeds what we believe would be appropriate for us to acquire directly, subject to certain conditions. In addition, we expect to receive certain fees or other distributions from FCIP in connection with the services we provide to each series it may issue. Such fees may include management fees, incentive fees and administration fees and could be offset by expense caps or waivers in the future. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, we recognized $18,440 and $29,490, respectively, in management fee income related to the services performed for FCIP.
On July 14, 2014, we sold 506,000 shares of our common stock at $7.40 per share in a direct registered offering to certain investors for total gross proceeds of approximately $3.7 million.
On July 14, 2014, we closed an offering of our 8.25% fixed-rate notes due 2020 (the “Notes”). The Notes offering consisted of $12,500,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were sold at price of $25.375 plus accrued interest from June 30, 2014, a premium to par value of $25.00 per Note, for total gross proceeds of approximately $12.7 million. The Notes are a further issuance of, rank equally in right of payment with, and form a single series with the $21.1 million of currently outstanding Notes that will mature on June 30, 2020, and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option on or after June 30, 2016. The Notes are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market and trade under the trading symbol “FULLL.”
Exemptive Relief
On December 4, 2014, we filed an exemptive application with the SEC to permit us to co-invest with funds or entities managed by our investment adviser in certain negotiated transactions where co-investing would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act. Any such order will be subject to certain terms and conditions. Furthermore, there is no assurance when, or even if, this application for exemptive relief will be granted by the SEC.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) 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 revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following items as critical accounting policies.
Basis of Consolidation
Under the 1940 Act rules, the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to us. Our financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of Full Circle West, Inc., FC New Media Inc., TransAmerican Asset Servicing Group, Inc., FC New Specialty Foods, Inc., and FC Takoda Holdings, LLC, our only wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Valuation of Investments in Securities at Fair Value — Definition and Hierarchy
In accordance with GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
41
TABLE OF CONTENTS
In determining fair value, Full Circle Capital’s Board of Directors uses various valuation approaches. In accordance with GAAP, a fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.
Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Board of Directors. Unobservable inputs reflect the Board of Directors’ assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealers or market makers. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are not considered to be the best estimate of fair value are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. Because the Company expects that there will not be a readily available market value for many of the investments in the Company’s portfolio, it is expected that many of the Company’s portfolio investments’ values will be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors in accordance with a documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors and in accordance with GAAP. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 securities. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.
Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors including, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Those estimated values do not necessarily represent the amounts that may be ultimately realized due to the occurrence of future circumstances that cannot be reasonably determined. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Board of Directors in determining fair value is greatest for securities categorized in Level 3. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including periods of market dislocation. In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many securities. This condition could cause a security to be reclassified to a lower level within the fair value hierarchy.

Net change in realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments
Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized. Realized gain (loss) on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their stated costs.
From time to time, the Company may enter into a new transaction with a portfolio company as a result of the sale, merger, foreclosure, bankruptcy or other corporate event involving the portfolio company. In such cases, the Company may receive newly issued notes, securities and/or other consideration in exchange for, or resulting from, the cancellation of the instruments previously held by the Company with regard to that portfolio company. In such cases, the Company may experience a realized loss on the instrument being sold or cancelled, and, concurrently, an elimination of any previously recognized unrealized losses on the portfolio investment. Such elimination of unrealized loss is included on the Statements of Operations as an increase in the Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments.
Valuation Techniques
Senior and Subordinated Secured Loans
The Company’s portfolio consists primarily of private debt instruments. Investments for which market quotations are readily available (“Level 2 Debt”) are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealers. For other debt investments (“Level 3 Debt”) market quotations are not available and other techniques are used to determine fair value. The Company considers its Level 3 debt to be performing if the borrower is not in default, the borrower is remitting payments in a timely manner, the loan is in covenant compliance or is otherwise not deemed to be impaired. In determining the fair value of the performing Level 3 debt, the Company’s Board of Directors considers fluctuations in current interest rates, the trends in yields of debt instruments with similar credit ratings, the financial condition of the borrower, economic conditions, success and prepayment fees, and other relevant factors, both qualitative and quantitative. In the event that a Level 3 debt instrument is not performing, as defined above, the Company’s Board of Directors will evaluate the value of the collateral utilizing the same framework described above for a performing loan to determine the value of the Level 3 debt instrument.
This evaluation will be updated no less than quarterly for Level 3 debt instruments, and more frequently for time periods where there are significant changes in the investor base or significant changes in the perceived value of the underlying collateral. The collateral value will be analyzed on an ongoing basis using internal metrics, appraisals, work performed by third-party valuation agents, if applicable, and other data as may be acquired and analyzed by Management and the Company’s Board of Directors.
Investments in Private Companies
The Company’s Board of Directors determines the fair value of its investments in private companies where no market quotations are readily available by incorporating valuations that consider the evaluation of financing and sale transactions with third parties, expected cash flows and market-based information, including comparable transactions, and performance multiples, among other factors, including work performed by third-party valuation agents. These nonpublic investments are included in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Warrants
The Company’s Board of Directors ascribes value to warrants based on fair value analyses that may include discounted cash flow analyses, option pricing models, comparable analyses and other techniques as deemed appropriate.

Revenue Recognition
Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.
Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, closing and/or commitment fees associated with senior and subordinated secured loans are accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Upon the prepayment of a senior or subordinated secured loan, any unamortized loan origination, closing and/or commitment fees are recorded as interest income. Generally, when a payment default occurs on a loan in the portfolio, or if the Company otherwise believes that the issuer of the loan will not be able to make contractual interest payments, the Company may place the loan on non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on the loan until all principal and interest is current through payment, or until a restructuring occurs, and the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if a loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection or is viewed to be able to pay all amounts due if the loan were to be collected on through an investment in, or sale of the business, the sale of the assets of the business, or some portion or combination thereof.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Structuring fees, excess deal deposits, prepayment fees and similar fees are recognized as Other Income as earned, usually when paid. Other fee income, including annual fees and monitoring fees are included in Other Income.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements of Full Circle Capital in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts disclosed in the financial statements of Full Circle Capital. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Current Market Conditions and Market Opportunity
We believe that the current credit environment provides favorable opportunities to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns on the types of senior secured loans and other investments we may target. In particular, we believe that, despite an overall fall off in loan demand due to the depressed economic conditions, demand for financing from smaller to lower middle-market companies is largely outpacing the availability of lenders that have traditionally served this market. We believe that bank consolidations, the failure of a number of alternative lending vehicles due to poor underwriting practices and an overall tightening of underwriting standards has significantly reduced the number and activity level of potential lenders.
We believe there has long been a combination of demand for capital and an underserved market for capital addressing lower middle-market borrowers. We believe there is robust demand for continued growth capital as well as demand from very significant refinancing requirements of many borrowers as debt facilities come due, given the lack of willing and qualified capital providers. We believe these market conditions have been further exacerbated in the current environment due to:
| º | larger lenders exiting this market to focus on larger investment opportunities which are more appropriate for their operating cost structures; |
| º | the elimination of many specialized lenders from the market due to lack of capital as a result of, for instance, the closing off of the securitization market or their own poor performance, and |
| º | the need for certain capital providers to reduce lending activities due to their reduced access to capital and the overall deleveraging of the financial market. |
With the decreased availability of debt capital for smaller to lower middle-market borrowers, combined with the significant demand for refinancing, we believe there are increased lending opportunities for us. As always, we remain cautious in selecting new investment opportunities, and will only deploy capital in deals which are consistent with our disciplined philosophy of pursuing superior risk-adjusted returns.
Operating Expense Reimbursement
Our investment adviser has agreed to reimburse us for any operating expenses, excluding interest expenses, investment advisory and management fees, and offering expenses that exceed 1.50% of our net assets, beginning with our fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2014 through the end of our fiscal year 2015. For our fiscal year 2016 and beyond, our investment adviser has agreed to reimburse us for any operating expenses, excluding interest expenses, investment advisory and management fees, and offering expenses, that exceed 1.75% of our net assets.

Total Investment Income
Total investment income includes interest and dividend income on our investments and other income, which is typically comprised of fee income. Fee income typically consists of administrative fees, prepayment fees, structuring fees and unused line fees.
Total investment income increased from $3,996,903 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $4,912,220 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in investment income was predominantly due to increased interest income. The increase in interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 relative to the three months ended December 31, 2013 is primarily due to a larger average investment portfolio. This increase was offset by a decline in other income, due to elevated other income for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from success and prepayment fees received as a result of the payoffs of iMedx, Inc., CSL Operating, LLC and Coast Plating, Inc.
Total investment income decreased on a per shares basis, as other income per share decreased from $0.16 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $0.04 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Interest Income per share was $0.37 for both the three months ended December 31, 2014 and the three months ended December 31, 2013. Per share figures noted above reflect an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding from 7,569,382 to 11,949,034 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, respectively; this increase in share count decreased the per share impact of increased total investment income.

Expenses
Net operating expenses increased from $2,097,315 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $2,558,879 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in net operating expenses is primarily due to increased interest expense and, to a lesser extent, increased management and incentive fees. Interest expense increased due to the expansion of our credit facility and the issuance of additional Notes (as defined below). These additional borrowings enabled us to fund portfolio growth, thereby increasing management fees as a result of a larger average investment portfolio, and increasing incentive fees due to greater pre-incentive fee net investment income. This increase was partially offset by the expense reimbursement provided by our investment adviser. Refer to Note 5 of our consolidated financial statements for our expense reimbursement policy.
Net operating expenses per share decreased from $0.28 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $0.22 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2014. This decrease predominantly related to a decrease in total advisory fees per share from $0.11 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $0.09 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Such decrease was the result of declining incentive fees, as pre-incentive fee net investment income per share declined for the periods being compared. Additionally, $0.02 per share of the decline resulted from the Adviser’s reimbursement to the Company of operating expenses exceeding 1.50% (excluding interest expense, management and incentive fees and offering expenses). Per share figures noted above reflect an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding from 7,569,382 to 11,949,034 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, respectively; this increase in share count decreased the per share impact of changes in expenses.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income increased from $1,899,588 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, to $2,353,341 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in net investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to greater interest income from a larger average investment portfolio. Net investment income also increased due to our investment adviser’s reimbursement of certain operating expenses of $248,373 during the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $0 for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. The increase in net investment income was partially offset by greater interest expense from additional borrowings and greater management and incentive fees resulting from a larger portfolio and greater pre-incentive fee net investment income during the period.
Net investment income per share decreased from $0.25 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $0.19 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Per share figures noted above reflect an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding from 7,569,382 to 11,949,034 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, respectively; this increase in share count decreased the per share impact of increased net investment income.
Realized Gain (Loss) on Investments
Realized gain (loss) on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their stated costs.
During the three months ended December 31, 2014, we recorded net realized losses of $1,301,452, primarily in connection with the final disposition of the investment in MDU Communications (USA) Inc., which resulted in a realized loss of $1,583,980. This loss was partially offset by a gain on partial prepayments of PEAKS Trust 2009-1 of $509,112.
During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we recorded net realized losses of $492,216 primarily in connection with the partial disposition of our investment in MDU Communications Inc.
Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments
Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized. See “— Critical Accounting Policies — Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments.”

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Total investment income increased from $7,215,089 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $8,998,844 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in investment income was predominantly due to increased interest income. The increase in interest income for the six months ended December 31, 2014 relative to the six months ended December 31, 2013 is primarily due to a larger average investment portfolio. This increase was offset by a decline in other income, primarily due to elevated other income for the six months ended December 31, 2013 from success and prepayment fees received as a result of the payoffs of iMedx, Inc., CSL Operating, LLC and Coast Plating, Inc. Dividend income for the six months ended December 31, 2014 decreased as compared with the dividend income for the six months ended December 31, 2013, reflecting no current period distributions related to the Company’s investment in The Finance Company, LLC.
Total investment income decreased on a per shares basis, as other income per share decreased from $0.18 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $0.06 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2014. Interest income per share was lower for the six months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2013, decreasing from $0.77 per share to $0.70 per share. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in non-accrual assets, and a corresponding decrease in the weighted average coupon interest rate for the portfolio, during the six months ended December 31, 2014. Per share figures noted above reflect an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding from 7,569,382 to 11,913,284 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, respectively; this increase in share count decreased the per share impact of increased total investment income.
Expenses
Net operating expenses increased from $4,071,274 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $4,803,429 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in net operating expenses is primarily due to increased interest expense and to a lesser extent to increased management and incentive fees. Interest expense increased due to the expansion of our credit facility and the issuance of additional Notes (as defined below). These additional borrowings enabled us to fund portfolio growth, thereby increasing management fees as a result of a larger average investment portfolio, and an increase in incentive fees due to greater pre-incentive fee net investment income. This increase was partially offset by the expense reimbursement provided by our investment adviser. Refer to Note 5 for our expense reimbursement policy.
Net operating expenses per share decreased from $0.53 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $0.40 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2014. This decrease predominantly related to a decrease in total advisory fees per share from $0.20 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $0.17 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2014. Such decrease was the result of declining incentive fees as pre-incentive fee net investment income per share declined for the periods being compared. Additionally, $0.04 per share of the decline resulted from the Adviser’s reimbursement to the Company of operating expenses exceeding 1.50% (excluding interest expense, management and incentive fees and offering expenses). Per share figures noted above reflect an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding from 7,569,382 to 11,913,284 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014, respectively; this increase in share count decreased the per share impact of changes in expenses.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income increased from $3,143,815 for the six months ended December 31, 2013, to $4,195,415, for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in net investment income for the six months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to greater interest income from a larger average investment portfolio. Net investment income also increased due to our investment adviser’s reimbursement of certain operating expenses of $531,047 during the six months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $0 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in net investment income was partially offset by greater interest expense from additional borrowings and greater management and incentive fees resulting from a larger portfolio and greater pre-incentive fee net investment income during the period.
Net investment income per share decreased from $0.42 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2013, to $0.35 per share for the six months ended December 31, 2014. Per share figures noted above reflect an increase in the weighted average shares outstanding from 7,569,382 to 11,913,284 for the six months ended

Realized Gain (Loss) on Investments
Realized gain (loss) on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their stated costs.
During the six months ended December 31, 2014, we recorded net realized losses of $899,793, primarily in connection with a loss from the final disposition of the investment in MDU Communications (USA) Inc., which resulted in a realized loss of $1,583,980. This loss was partially offset by a gain on partial prepayments of PEAKS Trust 2009-1 of $918,426.
During the six months ended December 31, 2013, we recorded net realized losses of $1,170,701 primarily in connection with the partial disposition of our investment in MDU Communications Inc.
Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments
Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized. See “— Critical Accounting Policies — Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Investments.”
Net change in unrealized depreciation of investments increased from $5,450,203 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $9,639,794, for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The following table summarizes the significant changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of the Company’s investment portfolio for the six months ended December 31, 2014 by portfolio company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2014, we had investments in debt securities of 27 companies, totaling approximately $124.1 million, and equity investments in 15 companies, totaling approximately $4.4 million. The debt investment amount includes approximately $202,235 in accrued “PIK” interest earned for the six months ended December 31, 2014, which is added to the carrying value of our investments.
For the six months ended December 31, 2014, cash used in operating activities, consisting primarily of purchases, sales and repayments of investments and the items described in “Results of Operations,” was approximately $33.3 million, reflecting the purchases and repayments of investments, income resulting from operations, offset by non-cash income related to OID income, changes in working capital and accrued interest receivable. Net cash used in purchases and sales of investments was approximately $13.3 million, reflecting net additional investments in securities of $65.1 million, offset by principal repayments of $51.9 million. Such amounts are not inclusive of our purchases or sales of United States Treasury Bills.
As of December 31, 2014, we had $33.8 million outstanding under our senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Santander Bank, N.A. f/k/a Sovereign Bank, N.A. (“Santander Bank”), as administrative agent, and $33.8 million outstanding of aggregate principal amount of 8.25% Notes due June 30, 2020 (the “Notes”). On November 6, 2013, the Company increased the size of the Credit Facility
55
TABLE OF CONTENTS
from $32.5 million to $45.0 million. On September 12, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to our Credit Facility with Santander Bank to increase the size of the facility from $45.0 million to $60.0 million and to provide additional criteria for eligibility of loans under the borrowing base under the credit facility. The Company has not exercised its option to expand the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2014.
As a business development company, we generally have an ongoing need to raise additional capital for investment purposes. As a result, we expect, from time to time, to access the debt and equity markets when we believe it is necessary and appropriate to do so. In this regard, we continue to explore various options for obtaining additional debt or equity capital for investments. This may include expanding or extending our Credit Facility, or the issuance of additional shares of our common stock, possibly at prices below our then current net asset value per share pursuant to a proposal, approved by our stockholders at our most recent Special Meeting of Stockholders, authorizing us to sell shares of our common stock below its then current net asset value per share in one or more offerings for a period of one year or, if earlier, the date of our next Annual Meeting of Shareholders. We would need similar future approval from our stockholders to issue shares below the then current net asset value per share any time after the expiration of the current approval. If we are unable to obtain leverage or raise equity capital on terms that are acceptable to us, our ability to grow our portfolio will be substantially impacted.
Capital Raises
On July 14, 2014, we sold 506,000 shares of our common stock at $7.40 per share in a direct registered offering to certain investors for total gross proceeds of approximately $3.7 million.

In addition to the contractual obligations set forth above, we have certain obligations with respect to the investment advisory and administration services we receive. See “Overview”. We incurred $2,069,979 for investment advisory services and $355,147 for administrative services for the six months ended December 31, 2014.
As of December 31, 2014, we had approximately $2.6 million in unfunded loan commitments, subject to our approval in certain instances, to provide debt financing to certain of our portfolio companies.
Share Repurchase Program
On April 7, 2014, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program which provides for the purchase of up to 1 million shares of outstanding common stock to be implemented at the discretion of our management team. Under the repurchase program, we may, but are not obligated to, repurchase our outstanding common stock in the open market from time to time. The timing and number of shares to be repurchased in the open market will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions and alternative investment opportunities. In addition, any repurchases will be conducted in accordance with the 1940 Act.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices.
Borrowings
Secured Revolving Credit Facility. On June 3, 2013, we entered into a credit agreement with Santander Bank, as administrative agent, which provided us with our $32.5 million Credit Facility.
56
TABLE OF CONTENTS
The Credit Facility matures on June 3, 2016 and bears interest based on a tiered rate structure, depending upon utilization, ranging from LIBOR (one month, two month or three month, depending on our option) plus 3.25% to 4.00% per annum, or from Santander Bank’s prime rate plus 1.25% to 2.00% per annum, based on our election. In addition, a fee of 0.50% per annum is charged on unused amounts under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is secured by all of our assets. Under the Credit Facility, we have made certain customary representations and warranties, and are required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements, including a minimum balance sheet leverage ratio, for similar credit facilities. The Credit Facility includes usual and customary events of default for credit facilities of this nature. On November 6, 2013, the Company increased the size of its Credit Facility with Santander Bank from $32.5 million to $45.0 million. On September 12, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment to our Credit Facility with Santander Bank to increase the size of the facility from $45.0 million to $60.0 million and to provide additional criteria for eligibility of loans under the borrowing base under the credit facility. The Company has not exercised its option to expand the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2014.
Notes Payable. On June 28, 2013, we issued approximately $21.1 million in aggregate principal amount of our 8.25% Notes due June 30, 2020 for net proceeds of approximately $20.2 million after deducting underwriting commissions of approximately $0.9 million. Offering expenses of approximately $0.2 million were incurred.
The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated June 3, 2013, as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated June 28, 2013 (collectively, the “Indenture”), between us and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”). The Notes are our unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; equal in right of payment to our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness (including existing unsecured indebtedness that we later secure) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by our subsidiaries or financing vehicles. Interest on the Notes is paid quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30, at a rate of 8.25% per annum, beginning September 30, 2013. The Notes mature on June 30, 2020 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option on or after June 30, 2016. The Notes are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the trading symbol “FULLL” with a par value of $25.00 per share.
The Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants requiring our compliance with (regardless of whether we are subject to) the asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a)(1) of the 1940 Act, as well as covenants requiring us to provide financial information to the holders of the Notes and the Trustee if we cease to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These covenants are subject to limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture. We may repurchase the Notes in accordance with the 1940 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder. Any Notes repurchased by us may, at our option, be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, but may not be reissued or resold by us. Any Notes surrendered for cancellation will be promptly cancelled and no longer outstanding under the Indenture. As of December 31, 2014, we had not repurchased any of the Notes in the open market.
On July 14, 2014, we closed an offering of Notes consisting of $12,500,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Notes were sold at price of $25.375 plus accrued interest from June 30, 2014, a premium to par value of $25.00 per Note, for total gross proceeds of approximately $12.7 million. The Notes are a further issuance of, rank equally in right of payment with, and form a single series with the $21,145,525 of outstanding Notes that will mature on June 30, 2020, and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option on or after June 30, 2016.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Distribution Notes. On July 2, 2013, we repaid $3.4 million of Distribution Notes issued in connection with our initial public offering at par plus accrued interest. As a result, the Distribution Notes are no longer outstanding.
Distributions
In order to qualify as a regulated investment company and to avoid corporate level tax on the income we distribute to our stockholders, we are required, under Subchapter M of the Code, to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and short-term capital gains to our stockholders on an annual basis. To the extent our earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for a taxable year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to our stockholders. In this regard, $1,695,841 of our distributions during the year ended June 30, 2014 constituted a return of capital to our stockholders. For tax purposes, the Company expects that distributions for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 will be funded primarily from net investment income. However, for the six months ended December 31, 2014, for financial reporting purposes, the Company had net investment income of approximately $0.35 per share, compared to distributions to stockholders of $0.40 per share during the period. Management monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a tax return of capital may occur for the year. The tax character of distributions will be determined at the end of the taxable year. However, if the character of our distributions for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 were determined as of December 31, 2014, a portion of the distributions for 2015 would have been characterized as a tax return of capital to the Company’s stockholders; this tax return of capital may differ from the return of capital calculated with reference to net investment income for financial reporting purposes. Stockholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a distribution payment carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our taxable ordinary income or capital gains. The specific tax characteristics of our distributions will be reported to stockholders after the end of the taxable year.
The following table lists the cash distributions, including dividends and returns of capital, if any, per share that we have declared since our formation on April 16, 2010. The table is divided by fiscal year according to record date.

Certain members of Full Circle Advisors’ investment committee presently manage Full Circle Funding, LP, a specialty lender serving lower middle-market companies. Although the existing investment funds managed by Full Circle Funding, LP, which currently consist of the Legacy Funds, are no longer making investments in new opportunities, any affiliated investment vehicle formed in the future and managed by our investment adviser or its affiliates may, notwithstanding different stated investment objectives, have overlapping investment objectives with our own and, accordingly, may invest in asset classes similar to those targeted by us. Full Circle Advisors and its affiliates may determine that an investment is appropriate for us and for one or more of those other funds. In such event, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, Full Circle Advisors or its affiliates may determine that we should invest side-by-side with one or more other funds. Any such investments will be made only to the extent permitted by applicable law and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff, and consistent with Full Circle Advisors’ allocation procedures.
We have also adopted a Code of Ethics which applies to, among others, our senior officers, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as well as all of our officers, directors and employees. Our Code of Ethics requires that all employees and directors avoid any conflict, or the appearance
59
TABLE OF CONTENTS
of a conflict, between an individual’s personal interests and our interests. Pursuant to our Code of Ethics, each employee and director must disclose any conflicts of interest, or actions or relationships that might give rise to a conflict, to our Chief Compliance Officer. Our Audit Committee is charged with approving any waivers under our Code of Ethics. As required by the NASDAQ corporate governance listing standards, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors is also required to review and approve any transactions with related parties (as such term is defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K).
Recent Developments
Recent Portfolio Activity
On January 21, 2015, the Company partially exercised its warrant issued by Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. in a cashless exercise in exchange for 660,263 shares of Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. The cashless exercise reduced the amount of common shares underlying the remaining warrant by 1,215,000 leaving the Company with a warrant to purchase 185,000 shares in Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. with a strike price of $4.00 per share.
On January 30, 2015, the Company funded $2.0 million of a $50.0 million second lien term loan with GK Holdings, Inc, an IT and business skill training company. The credit facility bears interest at one month LIBOR plus 9.50% with a LIBOR floor of 1.00% and has a final maturity of January 30, 2022.
Appointment of Chief Executive Officer
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has appointed Gregg J. Felton as Chief Executive Officer in place of his previous position as Co-Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective as of February 9, 2015. In connection with Mr. Felton’s appointment, John E. Stuart resigned his position as the Company’s Co-Chief Executive Officer, but will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board.
| Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of December 31, 2014, 8 debt investments in our portfolio bore interest at a fixed rate, and the remaining 31 debt investments were at variable rates, representing approximately $27.3 million and $96.8 million in principal debt, respectively. The variable rates are based upon the Prime Rate or LIBOR.
To illustrate the potential impact of a change in the underlying interest rate on our net investment income, we have assumed a 1% increase in the underlying Prime Rate or LIBOR, and no other change in our portfolio as of December 31, 2014. We have also assumed outstanding floating rate borrowings by the Company of $33.8 million. Under this analysis, net investment income would increase by approximately $0.3 million annually. If we had instead assumed a 1% decrease in the underlying Prime Rate or LIBOR, net investment income would increase by approximately $0.2 million annually. Although management believes that this analysis is indicative of our existing interest rate sensitivity at December 31, 2014, it does not adjust for changes in the credit quality, size and composition of our portfolio, and other business developments, including borrowing under a credit facility, that could affect the net increase in net assets resulting from operations. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from the results under this hypothetical analysis.
We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates.
| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
As of December 31, 2014, we, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of material information about us required to be included in periodic SEC filings.
