Fourth Quarter 2013 Distributions
With the authorization of its board of directors, HMS Income Fund recently declared distributions for the months of October – December 2013. These distributions will be calculated based on stockholders of record each day from October 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013 in an amount equal to $0.00191781 per share, per day (which represents an annualized distribution yield of 7% based on HMS Income Fund’s current public offering price of $10.00 per share, if it were maintained everyday for a twelve-month period). Distributions will be paid on the first business day following the completion of each month to which they relate. All distributions will be paid in cash or reinvested in stock for those participating in HMS Income Fund’s distribution reinvestment plan.
Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K, including intentions, beliefs, expectations or projections relating to items such as the timing of payment of distributions are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements are based on current expectations and assumptions with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions that may prove incorrect or inaccurate. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements include the risks described in the "Risk Factors" section of HMS Income Fund’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
A copy of the press release announcing the foregoing is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
