NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

As of September 30, 2016

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)

1. ORGANIZATION

NF Investment Corp. (“NFIC” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation formed on November 1, 2012, and structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company. NFIC has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Investment Company Act”). NFIC has elected to be treated, and intends to continue to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

NFIC’s investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments in U.S. middle market companies, which the Company defines as companies with approximately $10 million to $100 million of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). NFIC seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in first lien senior secured loans (which may include stand-alone first lien loans; first lien/last out loans, which are loans that have a secondary priority behind first lien/first out loans; “unitranche” loans, which are loans that combine features of first lien, second lien or subordinated loans, generally in a first lien position; and secured corporate bonds with features similar to the features of these categories of first lien loans) and second lien senior secured loans (which may include senior secured loans, and, to a lesser extent, secured corporate bonds, with a secondary priority behind first lien loans) (collectively, “Middle Market Senior Loans”), subject to, in the case of second lien senior secured loans, a limit of 10% of NFIC’s total assets. The Middle Market Senior Loans are generally made to private U.S. middle market companies that are, in many cases, controlled by private equity firms. In addition, NFIC may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities whose risk profile, as determined at the sole discretion of Carlyle GMS Investment Management L.L.C. (the “Investment Adviser”), is similar to or better than the risk profile of Middle Market Senior Loans. NFIC expects that the composition of its portfolio will change over time given the Investment Adviser’s view on, among other things, the economic and credit environment (including with respect to interest rates) in which the Company is operating.

On August 6, 2013, NFIC completed its initial closing of capital commitments (the “Initial Closing”) and subsequently commenced substantial investment operations.

NFIC is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012. NFIC expects to remain an emerging growth company because it does not intend to pursue an initial public offering.

NFIC SPV LLC (the “Borrower Sub”) is a Delaware limited liability company that was formed on June 18, 2013. The Borrower Sub invests in first and second lien senior secured loans. The Borrower Sub is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and is consolidated in these consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of its formation, June 18, 2013.

NFIC is externally managed by the Investment Adviser, an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Carlyle GMS Finance Administration L.L.C. (the “Administrator”) provides the administrative services necessary for NFIC to operate. Both the Investment Adviser and the Administrator are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Carlyle Investment Management L.L.C., a subsidiary of The Carlyle Group L.P. “Carlyle” refers to The Carlyle Group L.P., its affiliates and its consolidated subsidiaries, a global alternative asset manager publicly traded on NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “CG”. Refer to the sec.gov website for further information on Carlyle.

Upon the earlier of August 6, 2018 and the completion of an initial public offering by Carlyle GMS Finance, Inc. (“Carlyle GMS Finance”) (the other BDC managed by the Investment Adviser) that results in an unaffiliated public float of at least 15% of its aggregate capital commitments (a “Qualified IPO”), the Board of Directors (subject to any necessary stockholder approvals and applicable requirements of the Investment Company Act) will use its best efforts to wind down and/or liquidate and dissolve the Company. These efforts may include cash tender offers from time to time as proceeds become available. Refer to sec.gov website for further information on Carlyle GMS Finance.

As a BDC, NFIC is required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. As part of these requirements, the Company must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the Investment Company Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of its total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions).

NFIC has elected to be treated, and intends to continue to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code, and operates in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify as a RIC, NFIC must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders generally at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. Pursuant to this election, NFIC generally does not have to pay corporate level taxes on any income that it distributes to stockholders, provided that NFIC satisfies those requirements.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). The Company is an investment company for the purposes of accounting and financial reporting in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-08, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASU 2013-08”):Amendments to the Scope, Measurement and Disclosure Requirements. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NFIC and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Borrower Sub. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. US GAAP for an investment company requires investments to be recorded at fair value. The carrying value for all other assets and liabilities approximates their fair value.

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the interim period presented have been included. These adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the Company’s

accounting policies. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments and their resulting impact on management fees involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Investments

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and includes investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments as presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations reflects the net change in the fair value of investments, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized. See Note 3 for further information about fair value measurements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments (e.g., money market funds, U.S. treasury notes) with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held with two large financial institutions and cash held in such financial institutions may, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

Revenue Recognition

Interest from Investments and Realized Gain/Loss on Investments

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of debt investments represents the original cost, including origination fees, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any. At time of exit, the realized gain or loss on an investment is the difference between the amortized cost at time of exit and the cash received at exit using the specific identification method.

The Company may have loans in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK represents interest that is accrued and recorded as interest income at the contractual rates, increases the loan principal on the respective capitalization dates, and is generally due at maturity. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, no loans in the portfolio contained PIK provisions.

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, and syndication fees associated with the Company’s investment activities as well as any fees for managerial assistance services rendered by the Company to portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered. The Company may receive fees for guaranteeing the outstanding debt of a portfolio company. Such fees will be amortized into other income over the life of the guarantee. The unamortized amount, if any, is included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Non-Accrual Income

interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, no loans in the portfolio were on non-accrual status.

Revolving Credit Facility and Facility Related Costs, Expenses and Deferred Financing Costs (See Note 5, Borrowings)

Interest expense and unused commitment fees on the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility are recorded on an accrual basis. Unused commitment fees are included in credit facility fees in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Revolving Credit Facility and Facility are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.

Deferred financing costs include capitalized expenses related to the closing of the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility. Amortization of deferred financing costs for each credit facility is computed on the straight-line basis over the respective term of each credit facility, except for a portion that was accelerated in connection with the amendment of the Revolving Credit Facility as described in Note 5. The amortization of such costs is included in credit facility fees in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Organization and Offering Costs

The Company agreed to reimburse the Investment Adviser for initial organization and offering costs incurred on behalf of NFIC up to $750. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $663 of organization and offering costs had been incurred by NFIC since inception. The $663 of incurred organization and offering costs are allocated to all stockholders based on their respective capital commitment and are re-allocated amongst all stockholders at the time of each capital drawdown subsequent to the Initial Closing. The Company’s organization costs incurred are expensed and the offering costs are charged against equity when incurred.

Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, NFIC has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code, and intends to make the required distributions to its stockholders as specified therein. In order to qualify as a RIC, NFIC must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then NFIC is generally required to pay income taxes only on the portion of its taxable income and gains it does not distribute.

The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require NFIC to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (“ICTI”), as defined by the Code, each year. Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, NFIC may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such ICTI.

In addition, based on the excise distribution requirements, NFIC is subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on undistributed income unless NFIC distributes in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income realized, but not distributed, in the preceding year. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by NFIC that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed. NFIC intends to make sufficient distributions each taxable year to satisfy the excise distribution requirements.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely than not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes, if any, are included in income tax expense.

The Borrower Sub is a disregarded entity for tax purposes and is consolidated with the tax return of NFIC.

Capital Calls and Dividends and Distributions to Common Stockholders

The Company records the shares issued in connection with capital calls as of the effective date of the capital call. To the extent that the Company has taxable income available, the Company intends to make quarterly distributions to its common stockholders. Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the record date and paid in cash. The amount to be distributed is determined by the Board of Directors each quarter and is generally based upon the taxable earnings estimated by management and available cash. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

Functional Currency

The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar and all transactions were in U.S. Dollars.

Recent Accounting Standards Updates

On April 7, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2015-3,Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30)—Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-3”). ASU 2015-3 requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts and premiums. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2016 and the ASU requires the guidance to be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company adopted the new accounting guidance and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2015-15,Interest—Imputation of Interest (Sub-topic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements (“ASU 2015-15”). ASU 2015-03 does not address presentation or subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements. In accordance with ASU 2015-15, an entity may defer and present debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2016. The Company adopted the new accounting guidance and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with the terms of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820,Fair Value Measurement(“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be exchanged to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transfer between market participants at the measurement date. The Company values securities/instruments traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments, such as its securities/instruments traded in active markets and its liquid securities/instruments that are not traded in active markets, from pricing services, brokers, or counterparties (i.e., “consensus pricing”). When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient

according to US GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. The Company may use the quote obtained or alternative pricing sources may be utilized including valuation techniques typically utilized for illiquid securities/instruments.

Securities/instruments that are illiquid 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 Investment Adviser or NFIC’s Board of Directors, does not represent fair value shall each be valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available. These valuation techniques may vary by investment and include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and/or discounted cash flow analyses. The process generally used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) the value of each portfolio company or investment is initially reviewed by the investment professionals responsible for such portfolio company or investment and, for non-traded investments, a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs, updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs is used to determine a preliminary value, which is also reviewed alongside consensus pricing, where available; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and reviewed by a valuation committee comprised of members of senior management; (iii) the Board of Directors engages a third-party valuation firm to provide positive assurance on portions of the Middle Market Senior Loans portfolio each quarter (such that each non-traded investment is reviewed by a third-party valuation firm at least once on a rolling twelve month basis) including a review of management’s preliminary valuation and conclusion on fair value; (iv) the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) reviews the assessments of the Investment Adviser and the third-party valuation firm and provides the Board of Directors with any recommendations with respect to changes to the fair value of each investment in the portfolio; and (v) the Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Audit Committee and determines the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser and, where applicable, the third-party valuation firm.

All factors that might materially impact the value of an investment are considered, including, but not limited to the assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

•

the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

•

call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

•

the portfolio company’s leverage and ability to make payments;

•

the portfolio company’s public or private credit rating;

•

the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

•

prevailing interest rates and spreads for similar securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

•

the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

•

comparisons to comparable transactions and publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available financial statements and compliance certificates received from the portfolio companies as of the measurement date which in many cases may reflect a lag in information.

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 fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been reported had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material.

In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the realized gains or losses on investments to be different from the net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation currently reflected in the consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

US GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which ranks the level of observability of market price inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment and state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in determination of fair values, as follows:

•

Level I—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments in Level I generally include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.

•

Level II—inputs to the valuation methodology are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date and are those other than quoted prices in active markets. The type of financial instruments in this category generally includes less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.

•

Level III—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments that are in this category generally include investments in privately-held entities, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. The Investment Adviser’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfers occur. For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, there were no transfers between levels.

The following tables summarize the Company’s investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

The Company generally uses the following framework when determining the fair value of investments that are categorized as Level III:

Investments in debt securities are initially evaluated to determine whether the enterprise value of the portfolio company is greater than the applicable debt. The enterprise value of the portfolio company is estimated using a market approach and an income approach. The market approach utilizes market value (EBITDA) multiples of publicly traded comparable companies and available precedent sales transactions of comparable companies. The Company carefully considers numerous factors when selecting the appropriate companies whose multiples are used to value its portfolio companies. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of organization, similarity to the business being valued, relevant risk factors, as well as size, profitability and growth expectations. The income approach typically uses a discounted cash flow analysis of the portfolio company.

Investments in debt securities that do not have sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are valued based on an expected probability of default and discount recovery analysis.

assumption of full principal recovery at the security’s expected maturity date. The discount rate to be used is determined using an average of two market-based methodologies. Investments in debt securities may also be valued using consensus pricing.

The following tables summarize the quantitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs for Level III instruments which are carried at fair value as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:


	Fair Value as of September 30, 2016		Valuation Techniques	Significant Unobservable Inputs	Range

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments in first and second lien debt securities are discount rates and indicative quotes. Significant increases in discount rates would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Significant decreases in indicative quotes in isolation may result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

Financial instruments disclosed but not carried at fair value

The following table presents the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s secured borrowings disclosed but not carried at fair value as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:


	September 30, 2016				December 31, 2015
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Secured borrowings	$	127,621	$	127,621	$	118,194	$	118,194

Total	$	127,621	$	127,621	$	118,194	$	118,194

The carrying values of the secured borrowings approximate their respective fair values and are categorized as Level III within the hierarchy. Secured borrowings are valued generally using discounted cash flow analysis. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s secured borrowings are discount rates. Significant increases in discount rates would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

The carrying value of other financial assets and liabilities approximates their fair value based on the short term nature of these items.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Investment Advisory Agreement

On July 10, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act (the “Independent Directors”), approved an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) between the Company and the Investment Adviser in accordance with, and on the basis of an evaluation satisfactory to such directors as required by, Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act. The initial term of the Investment Advisory Agreement is two years from July 10, 2013 and, unless terminated earlier, the Investment Advisory Agreement will renew automatically for successive annual periods, provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the vote of the Board of Directors and by the vote of a majority of the Independent Directors.

Administration Agreement

On July 10, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) between the Company and the Administrator. Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides services and receives reimbursements equal to an amount that reimburses the Administrator for its costs and expenses and the Company’s allocable portion of overhead incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including the Company’s allocable portion of the compensation paid to or compensatory distributions received by the Company’s officers (including the Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer) and respective staff who provide services to the Company, operations staff who provide services to the Company, and any internal audit staff, to the extent internal audit performs a role in the Company’s Sarbanes-Oxley Act internal control assessment. Reimbursement under the Administration Agreement occurs quarterly in arrears.

The initial term of the Administration Agreement is two years from July 10, 2013 and, unless terminated earlier, the Administration Agreement will renew automatically for successive annual periods, provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of the Board of Directors or by a majority vote of the outstanding voting securities of the Company and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Company’s Independent Directors. On March 10, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, approved the continuance of the Administration Agreement for a one year period. The Administration Agreement may not be assigned by a party without the consent of the other party and may be terminated by either party without penalty upon at least 60 days’ written notice to the other party.

5. BORROWINGS

In accordance with the Investment Company Act, the Company is only allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, asset coverage was 223.79% and 211.27%, respectively. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2016, there were secured borrowings of $31,850 under the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility and repayments of $22,423 under the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2015, there were secured borrowings of $85,700 under the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility and repayments of $55,770 under the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were $127,621 and $118,194, respectively, in secured borrowings outstanding.

Revolving Credit Facility

The Borrower Sub closed on September 12, 2013 on the Revolving Credit Facility, which was subsequently amended on July 25, 2014 and further amended on November 13, 2015 (the “Second Amendment”). Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility first became available once the Borrower Sub held at least $10,500 of minimum equity in its assets. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for secured borrowings during the applicable revolving period up to an amount equal to the lesser of $120,000 (the borrowing base as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility) and the amount of net cash proceeds and unpledged capital commitments the Company has received, with an accordion feature that can, subject to certain conditions, increase the aggregate maximum credit commitment up to an amount not to exceed $262,500, subject to restrictions imposed on borrowings under the Investment Company Act and certain restrictions and conditions set

forth in the Revolving Credit Facility, including adequate collateral to support such borrowings. The Revolving Credit Facility has a revolving period through the earlier of May 2, 2018 and the completion of a Qualified IPO by Carlyle GMS Finance (with two one-year extension options, subject to the Borrower Sub’s and the lenders’ consent) and a maturity date of the earlier of May 2, 2021 or the completion of a Qualified IPO by Carlyle GMS Finance (extendable in connection with an extension of the revolving period). Base rate borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest initially at the applicable commercial paper rate (if the lender is a conduit lender) or LIBOR (or, if applicable, a rate based on the prime rate or federal funds rate) plus 1.65% per year during the revolving period, with pre-determined future interest rate increases of 1.25%-2.15% over the three years following the end of the revolving period. The Borrower Sub is also required to pay an undrawn commitment fee of between 0.25% and 1.00% per year depending on the usage of the Revolving Credit Facility. Payments under the Revolving Credit Facility are made quarterly. The lenders have a first lien security interest on substantially all of the assets of the Borrower Sub.

As part of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Borrower Sub is subject to limitations as to how borrowed funds may be used and the types of loans that are eligible to be acquired by the Borrower Sub including, but not limited to, restrictions on sector and geographic concentrations, loan size, payment frequency, tenor and minimum investment ratings (or estimated ratings). In addition, borrowed funds are intended to be used primarily to purchase first lien loan assets, and the Borrower Sub is limited in its ability to purchase certain other assets (including, but not limited to, second lien loans, covenant-lite loans, revolving and delayed draw loans and discount loans) and other assets are not permitted to be purchased (including, but not limited to paid-in-kind loans). The Revolving Credit Facility has certain requirements relating to interest coverage, collateral quality and portfolio performance, including limitations on delinquencies and charge offs, certain violations of which could result in the immediate acceleration of the amounts due under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility is also subject to a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to assets held by the Borrower Sub based generally on the fair market value of such assets. Under certain circumstances as set forth in the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company could be obliged to repurchase loans from the Borrower Sub.

Related to the Second Amendment, which reduced the maximum commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, $167 of deferred financing costs (representing the prorated financing costs related to the reduction in commitments) were immediately expensed on November 13, 2015 in lieu of continuing to amortize over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Borrower Sub was in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Facility

The Company closed on March 27, 2014 on the Facility, which was subsequently amended on August 22, 2014, December 12, 2014 and further amended on August 31, 2016. The maximum principal amount of the Facility is $50,000, subject to availability under the Facility, which is based on certain advance rates multiplied by the value of the Company’s portfolio investments net of certain other indebtedness that the Company may incur in accordance with the terms of the Facility. Proceeds of the Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. Maximum capacity under the Facility may be increased to $125,000 through the exercise by the Company of an uncommitted accordion feature through which existing and new lenders may, at their option, agree to provide additional financing. The Facility includes a $10,000 limit for swingline loans and a $5,000 limit for letters of credit. The Company may borrow amounts in U.S. dollars, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including certain collateral quality tests. The availability period under the Facility will terminate on May 2, 2018 or earlier under certain conditions specified in the Facility (the “Commitment Termination Date”) and the Facility will mature on March 27, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”). During the period from the Commitment Termination Date to the Maturity Date, the Company will be obligated to make mandatory prepayments under the Facility out of the proceeds of certain asset sales, other recovery events and equity and debt issuances. Amounts drawn under the Facility, including amounts drawn in respect of letters of

credit, will bear interest at either (a) LIBOR plus an applicable spread of (i) prior to the Commitment Termination Date, 2.25% and (ii) following the Commitment Termination Date, 2.50%, or (b) an “alternative base rate” (which is the highest of a prime rate, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, or one month LIBOR plus 1.00%) plus an applicable spread of (i) prior to the Commitment Termination Date, 1.00% and (ii) following the Commitment Termination Date, 1.50%. The Company may elect either the LIBOR or the “alternative base rate” at the time of drawdown, and loans may be converted from one rate to another at any time, subject to certain conditions. The Company also pays a fee of 0.50% on undrawn amounts under the Facility and, in respect of each undrawn letter of credit, a fee and interest rate equal to the then-applicable margin under the Facility while the letter of credit is outstanding.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Facility is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of the portfolio investments held by the Company and the Company’s unfunded investor equity capital commitments (provided that the amount of unfunded capital commitments ultimately available to the lenders is limited to $34,000). The pledge of unfunded investor equity capital commitments was subject to release upon the earlier of (a) the date eligible investments held by the Company are equal to or greater than $62,500 and the Facility’s borrowing base equity test is satisfied and (b) the date the borrower has received equity capital contributions in an amount equal to $34,000. Such eligible investments and shareholder equity thresholds have been satisfied as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Facility includes customary covenants, including certain financial covenants related to asset coverage, shareholders’ equity, liquidity and interest coverage, certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, and other maintenance covenants, as well as usual and customary events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the Facility.

Subscribed but unissued shares are presented in equity with a deduction of subscriptions receivable until cash is received for a subscription. There were no subscribed but unissued shares as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Subscription transactions during the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were executed at an offering price at a premium to net asset value due to the requirement to use prior quarter net asset value as offering price unless it would result in the Company selling shares of its common stock at a price below the current net asset value and also in order to effect a reallocation of organizational costs to subsequent investors. Such subscription transactions increased net asset value by $0.02 per share and $0.06 per share, respectively, for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, four stockholders represented 97.3% of total net assets.

The Company computes earnings per common share in accordance with ASC 260,Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share were calculated by dividing net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations attributable to the Company by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

Basic and diluted earnings per common share were as follows:


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015		September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015

8. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The following is a schedule of consolidated financial highlights for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015:


	For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016			September 30, 2015
Per Share Data:
Net asset value per share, beginning of period	$	19.16		$	19.34
Net investment income (loss)⁽¹⁾		1.42			1.20
Net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments		0.09			0.17

Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations		1.51			1.37

Dividends declared⁽²⁾		(1.32	)		(1.05	)
Effect of subscription offering price⁽³⁾		0.02			0.06

Net asset value per share, end of period	$	19.37		$	19.72

Number of shares outstanding, end of period		8,156,316			6,413,587
Total return⁽⁴⁾		7.99	%		7.39	%
Net assets, end of period	$	157,980		$	126,461
Ratio to average net assets⁽⁵⁾:
Operating expenses		2.95	%		3.10	%
Net investment income (loss)		7.28	%		5.95	%
Interest expense and credit facility fees		1.81	%		1.83	%
Ratios/Supplemental Data:
Asset coverage, end of period		223.79	%		214.10	%
Portfolio turnover		15.33	%		15.40	%
Total committed capital, end of period	$	190,077		$	190,077
Ratio of total contributed capital to total committed capital, end of period		84.98	%		67.14	%
Weighted-average shares outstanding		7,396,124			5,734,473

(1)	Net investment income (loss) per share was calculated as net investment income (loss) for the period divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period.

(2)	Dividends declared per share was calculated as the sum of dividends declared during the period divided by the number of shares outstanding at each respective quarter-end date (refer to Note 7).

(3)	Increase is due to offering price of subscriptions during the period (refer to Note 7).

(4)

Total return (not annualized) is based on the change in net asset value per share during the period plus the declared dividends, divided by the beginning net asset value for the period. Total return for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is inclusive of $0.02 and $0.06, respectively, per share increase in net asset value for the periods related to the offering price of subscriptions. Excluding the effects of the higher offering price of subscriptions, total return (not annualized) would have been 7.88% and 7.08%, respectively (refer to Note 7).

(5)	These ratios to average net assets have not been annualized.

9. LITIGATION

The Company may become party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of current matters, if any, will materially impact the Company or its consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was not subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against the Company.

In addition, portfolio investments of the Company could be the subject of litigation or regulatory investigations in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any current contingent liabilities of its portfolio investments, if any, will materially affect the Company or these consolidated financial statements.

10. TAX

The Company has not recorded a liability for any uncertain tax positions pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740,Income Taxes, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal and certain state, local and foreign tax regulators. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had filed tax returns and therefore is subject to examination.

The Company’s taxable income for each period is an estimate and will not be finally determined until the Company files its tax return for each year. Therefore, the final taxable income, and the taxable income earned in each period and carried forward for distribution in the following period, may be different than this estimate. The estimated tax character of dividends declared for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:


	For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015

(“we”, “us”, “our”, “NFIC” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation formed on November 1, 2012, and structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company. NFIC has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Investment Company Act”). NFIC has elected to be treated, and intends to continue to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”).

NFIC’s investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments in U.S. middle market companies, which we define as companies with approximately $10 million to $100 million of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). NFIC seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in first lien senior secured loans (which may include stand-alone first lien loans; first lien/last out loans, which are loans that have a secondary priority behind first lien/first out loans; “unitranche” loans, which are loans that combine features of first lien, second lien or subordinated loans, generally in a first lien position; and secured corporate bonds with features similar to the features of these categories of first lien loans) and second lien senior secured loans (which may include senior secured loans, and, to a lesser extent, secured corporate bonds, with a secondary priority behind first lien loans) (collectively, “Middle Market Senior Loans”), subject to, in the case of second lien senior secured loans, a limit of 10% of NFIC’s total assets. The Middle Market Senior Loans are generally made to private U.S. middle market companies that are, in many cases, controlled by private equity firms. In addition, NFIC may invest up to 10% of its total assets in high yield securities whose risk profile, as determined at the sole discretion of Carlyle GMS Investment Management L.L.C. (the “Investment Adviser”), is similar to or better than the risk profile of Middle Market Senior Loans. We expect that the composition of our portfolio will change over time given our Investment Adviser’s view on, among other things, the economic and credit environment (including with respect to interest rates) in which we are operating.

will use its best efforts to wind down and/or liquidate and dissolve the Company. These efforts may include cash tender offers from time to time as proceeds become available. Refer to sec.gov website for further information on Carlyle GMS Finance.

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt available to middle market companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.

Revenue

We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest and fee income on debt investments we hold and capital gains, if any, on investments. Our debt investments generally have a stated term of five to eight years and generally bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark such as LIBOR. Interest on these debt investments is generally paid quarterly. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments fluctuates significantly from period to period. Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds of sales of securities. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of: (i) management fees to our Investment Adviser pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) between us and our Investment Adviser; (ii) costs and other expenses and our allocable portion of overhead incurred by the Administrator in performing its administrative obligations under an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) between us and our Administrator; and (iii) other operating expenses as detailed below:

•

our initial organization costs and offering costs incurred prior to the filing of our election to be regulated as a BDC (the amount in excess of $750 to be paid by our Investment Adviser);

•

the costs associated with the Private Offering;

•

the costs of any other offerings of our common stock and other securities, if any;

•

certain costs and expenses relating to distributions paid on our shares;

•

administration fees payable under our Administration Agreement and sub-administration agreements, including related expenses;

•

•

•

the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to our stockholders (including printing and mailing costs), the costs of any stockholders’ meetings and the compensation of investor relations personnel responsible for the preparation of the foregoing and related matters;

We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or to decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.

See the Consolidated Schedules of Investments as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 in our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on these investments, including a list of companies and type and amount of investments.

As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Adviser has developed risk policies pursuant to which it regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our debt investments and rates each of them based on the following categories, which we refer to as “Internal Risk Ratings”:

Internal Risk Ratings Definitions


Rating		Definition
1		Performing—Low Risk: Borrower is operating more than 10% ahead of the Base Case.

2		Performing—Stable Risk: Borrower is operating within 10% of the Base Case (above or below). This is the initial rating assigned to all new borrowers.

3		Performing—Management Notice: Borrower is operating more than 10% below the Base Case. A financial covenant default may have occurred, but there is a low risk of payment default.

4		Watch List: Borrower is operating more than 20% below the Base Case and there is a high risk of covenant default, or it may have already occurred. Payments are current although subject to greater uncertainty, and there is moderate to high risk of payment default.

5		Watch List—Possible Loss: Borrower is operating more than 30% below the Base Case. At the current level of operations and financial condition, the borrower does not have the ability to service and ultimately repay or refinance all outstanding debt on current terms. Payment default is very likely or may have occurred. Loss of principal is possible.

6		Watch List—Probable Loss: Borrower is operating more than 40% below the Base Case, and at the current level of operations and financial condition, the borrower does not have the ability to service and ultimately repay or refinance all outstanding debt on current terms. Payment default is very likely or may have already occurred. Additionally, the prospects for improvement in the borrower’s situation are sufficiently negative that impairment of some or all principal is probable.

Our Investment Adviser’s risk rating model is based on evaluating portfolio company performance in comparison to the Base Case when considering certain credit metrics including, but not limited to, adjusted EBITDA and net senior leverage as well as specific events including, but not limited to, default and impairment.

Our Investment Adviser monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment ratings assigned to each debt investment in our portfolio. In connection with our quarterly valuation process, our Investment Adviser reviews our investment ratings on a regular basis. The following table summarizes the Internal Risk Ratings as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:


	September 30, 2016					December 31, 2015
	Fair Value		% of Fair Value			Fair Value		% of Fair Value
(dollar amounts in millions)
Internal Risk Rating 1	$	15.6		5.36	%	$	15.1		6.16	%
Internal Risk Rating 2		223.3		76.68			187.5		76.75
Internal Risk Rating 3		25.8		8.86			37.9		15.51
Internal Risk Rating 4		22.5		7.73			3.8		1.58
Internal Risk Rating 5		4.0		1.37			—		—
Internal Risk Rating 6		—		—			—		—

Total	$	291.2		100.00	%	$	244.3		100.00	%

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the weighted average Internal Risk Rating of our debt investment portfolio was 2.2 and 2.1 respectively.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

The net increase or decrease in net assets from operations may vary substantially from period to period as a result of various factors, including the recognition of realized gains and losses and net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation. As a result, quarterly comparisons may not be meaningful.

Investment Income

Interest income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015		September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015
Interest income from non-controlled/non-affiliated investments	$	5,497	$	4,005	$	14,730	$	10,453

Total investment income	$	5,497	$	4,005	$	14,730	$	10,453

The increase in interest income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 from the comparable periods in 2015 was driven by our deployment of capital and increasing invested balance. As of September 30, 2016, the size of our portfolio increased to $294,146 from $233,928 as of September 30, 2015, at amortized cost, and total principal amount of investments outstanding increased to $297,270 from $236,499 as of September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2016, the weighted average yield of our first and second lien debt increased to 6.76% from 6.51% as of September 30, 2015, on amortized cost.

Interest income on our first and second lien debt investments is dependent on the composition and credit quality of the portfolio. Generally, we expect the portfolio to generate predictable quarterly interest income based on the terms stated in each loan’s credit agreement. As of September 30, 2016 and 2015, all of our first and second lien debt investments were performing and current on their interest payments.

Net investment income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:


	For the three month periods ended						For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016			September 30, 2015			September 30, 2016			September 30, 2015
Total investment income from non-controlled/non-affiliated investments	$	5,497		$	4,005		$	14,730		$	10,453
Total expenses		(1,522	)		(1,217	)		(4,245	)		(3,577	)

Interest expense and credit facility fees for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were comprised of the following:


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015		September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015

Cash paid for interest expense	$	690	$	482	$	1,920	$	1,298

The increase in interest expense for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 from the comparable periods in 2015 was driven by increased usage of the Company’s credit facilities and increased deployment of capital to investments. For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016, the weighted average interest rate under the facilities was 2.32% and 2.26%, respectively, and average principal debt outstanding was $124,446 and $117,732, respectively. For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, the weighted average interest rate was 1.94% and 1.94%, respectively, and average principal debt outstanding was $108,546 and $98,052, respectively.

The increase in management fees for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 from the comparable periods in 2015 was driven by our deployment of capital and increasing invested balance. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on the management fees.

Professional fees include legal, rating agencies, audit, tax, valuation, technology and other professional fees incurred related to the management of the Company. Administrative service fees represent fees paid to the Administrator for our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our executive officers and their respective staff. Other general and administrative expenses include insurance, filing, research, subscriptions and other costs.

Net Realized Gain (Loss) and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments

During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016, the Company had a change in unrealized appreciation on 14 and 77 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $2,986 and $4,798,

respectively, which was offset by a change in unrealized depreciation on 2 and 23 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $1,465 and $3,883, respectively. During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a change in unrealized appreciation on 30 and 51 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $932 and $2,185, respectively, which was offset by a change in unrealized depreciation on 43 and 29 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $955 and $1,143, respectively.


	For the three month periods ended					For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015			September 30, 2016		September 30, 2015
Net realized gain (loss) on investments—non-controlled/non-affiliated	$	23	$	1		$	56	$	51
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments—non-controlled/non-affiliated		1,521		(23	)		915		1,042

Net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments	$	1,544	$	(22	)	$	971	$	1,093

Net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) by the type of investments for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:


	For the three month periods ended
	September 30, 2016					September 30, 2015
Type	Net realized gain (loss)			Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)		Net realized gain (loss)		Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)

Second Lien Debt		(5	)		737		—		108

Total	$	56		$	915	$	51	$	1,042

Net change in unrealized depreciation in our investments for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 compared to the comparable periods in 2015 was primarily due to changes in various inputs utilized under our valuation methodology, including, but not limited to, market spreads, leverage multiples and borrower ratings.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generate cash from the net proceeds of offerings of our common stock and through cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments as well as income earned on investments and cash equivalents. We may also fund a portion of our investments through borrowings under the Borrower Sub’s senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and/or the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the, “Facility”).

The Borrower Sub closed on September 12, 2013 on the Revolving Credit Facility, which was subsequently amended on July 25, 2014 and November 13, 2015. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for secured borrowings during the applicable revolving period up to an amount equal to the lesser of $120,000 (the borrowing base as calculated pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility) and the amount of net cash proceeds and unpledged capital commitments the Company has received, with an accordion feature that can, subject to certain conditions, increase the aggregate maximum credit commitment up to an amount not to exceed $262,500, subject to restrictions imposed on borrowings under the Investment Company Act and certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the Revolving Credit Facility, including adequate collateral to support such borrowings. The Revolving Credit Facility imposes financial and operating covenants on us and the Borrower Sub that restrict our and its business activities. Continued compliance with these covenants will depend on many factors, some of which are beyond our control.

The Company closed on March 27, 2014 on the Facility, which was subsequently amended on August 22, 2014, December 12, 2014 and further amended on August 31, 2016. The maximum principal amount of the Facility is $50,000, subject to availability under the Facility, which is based on certain advance rates multiplied by the value of the Company’s portfolio investments net of certain other indebtedness that the Company may incur in accordance with the terms of the Facility. Proceeds of the Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. Maximum capacity under the Facility may be increased to $125,000 through the exercise by the Company of an uncommitted accordion feature through which existing and new lenders may, at their option, agree to provide additional financing. The Facility includes a $10,000 limit for swingline loans and a $5,000 limit for letters of credit. Subject to certain exceptions, the Facility is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of the portfolio investments held by the Company and the Company’s unfunded investor equity capital commitments (provided that the amount of unfunded capital commitments ultimately available to the lenders is limited to $34,000). The pledge of unfunded investor equity capital commitments was subject to release upon the earlier of (a) the date eligible investments held by the Company are equal to or greater than $62,500 and the Facility’s borrowing base equity test is satisfied and (b) the date the borrower has received equity capital contributions in an amount equal to $34,000. Such eligible investments and shareholder equity thresholds had been satisfied as of September 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Facility includes customary covenants, including certain financial covenants related to asset coverage, shareholders’ equity, liquidity and interest coverage, certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, and other maintenance covenants, as well as usual and customary events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.

Although we believe that we and the Borrower Sub will remain in compliance, there are no assurances that we or the Borrower Sub will continue to comply with the covenants in the Facility and Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in a default under the Facility and/or Revolving Credit Facility that, if we or the Borrower Sub were unable to obtain a waiver from the applicable lenders, could result in the immediate acceleration of the amounts due under the Facility and/or Revolving Credit Facility, and thereby have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

For more information on the Revolving Credit Facility and Facility, see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

The primary use of existing funds and any funds raised in the future is expected to be for investments in portfolio companies, repayment of indebtedness, cash distributions to our stockholders and for other general corporate purposes.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $6,707 and $7,404, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. The facilities of the Company and the Borrower Sub consisted of the following as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:


	September 30, 2016
	Total Facility		Borrowings Outstanding		Unused Portion ⁽¹⁾		Amount Available ⁽²⁾
Revolving Credit Facility	$	120,000	$	88,121	$	31,879	$	4,099
Facility		50,000		39,500		10,500		10,500

Total	$	170,000	$	127,621	$	41,379	$	14,599

Total	$	170,000	$	118,194	$	51,806	$	13,279

(1)	The unused portion is the amount upon which commitment fees are based.

(2)	Available for borrowing based on the computation of collateral to support the borrowings.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company enters into contracts or agreements that contain indemnification and warranties. Future events could occur that lead to the execution of these provisions against the Company. The Company believes that the likelihood of such an event is remote; however, the maximum potential exposure is unknown.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are described below. The critical accounting policies should be read in connection with our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s annual report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with the terms of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC Topic 820,Fair Value Measurement(“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be exchanged to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transfer between market participants at the measurement date. The Company values securities/instruments traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments, such as its securities/instruments traded in active markets and its liquid securities/instruments that are not traded in active markets, from pricing services, brokers, or counterparties (i.e., “consensus pricing”). When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to US GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. The Company may use the quote obtained or alternative pricing sources may be utilized including valuation techniques typically utilized for illiquid securities/instruments.

transaction valuations and/or discounted cash flow analyses. The process generally used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) the value of each portfolio company or investment is initially reviewed by the investment professionals responsible for such portfolio company or investment and, for non-traded investments, a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs, updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs is used to determine a preliminary value, which is also reviewed alongside consensus pricing, where available; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and reviewed by a valuation committee comprised of members of senior management; (iii) the Board of Directors engages a third-party valuation firm to provide positive assurance on portions of the Middle Market Senior Loans portfolio each quarter (such that each non-traded investment is reviewed by a third-party valuation firm at least once on a rolling twelve month basis) including a review of management’s preliminary valuation and conclusion on fair value; (iv) the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) reviews the assessments of the Investment Adviser and the third-party valuation firm and provides the Board of Directors with any recommendations with respect to changes to the fair value of each investment in the portfolio; and (v) the Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Audit Committee and determines the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser and, where applicable, the third-party valuation firm.

All factors that might materially impact the value of an investment are considered, including, but not limited to the assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

•

the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

•

call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

•

the portfolio company’s leverage and ability to make payments;

•

the portfolio company’s public or private credit rating;

•

the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

•

prevailing interest rates and spreads for similar securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

•

the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

•

comparisons to comparable transactions and publicly traded securities.

with readily available quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in determination of fair values, as follows:

•

Transfer between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfers occur.

The Company generally uses the following framework when determining the fair value of investments that are categorized as Level III:

Investments in debt securities that do not have sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are valued based on an expected probability of default and discount recovery analysis.

Investments in debt securities with sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are generally valued using a discounted cash flow analysis of the underlying security. Projected cash flows in the discounted cash flow typically represent the relevant security’s contractual interest, fees and principal payments plus the assumption of full principal recovery at the security’s expected maturity date. The discount rate to be used is determined using an average of two market-based methodologies. Investments in debt securities may also be valued using consensus pricing.

The carrying value of other financial assets and liabilities approximates their fair value based on the short term nature of these items.

See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further information on fair value measurements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments and their resulting impact on management fees involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Investments

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and includes investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q reflects the net change in the fair value of investments, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

Revenue Recognition

Interest from Investments and Realized Gain/Loss on Investments

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment and syndication fees associated with the Company’s investment activities as well as any fees for managerial assistance services rendered by the Company to portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered. The Company may receive fees for guaranteeing the outstanding debt of a portfolio company. Such fees will be amortized into other income over the life of the guarantee. The unamortized amount, if any, is included in other assets in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Non-Accrual Income

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

Income Taxes

The Borrower Sub is a disregarded entity for tax purposes and is consolidated with the tax return of NFIC.

Capital Calls and Dividends and Distributions to Common Stockholders

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in the valuations of our investment portfolio and interest rates.

Valuation Risk

Our investments may not have a readily available market price, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. 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 fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is possible that the difference could be material.

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2016, on a fair value basis, approximately 1% of our debt investments bear interest at a fixed rate and approximately 99% of our debt investments bear interest at a floating rate, which primarily are subject to interest rate floors. Interest rates on the investments held within the Company’s portfolio of investments are typically based on floating LIBOR, with many of these investments also having a LIBOR floor. Additionally, the Company’s credit facilities are also subject to floating interest rates and are currently paid based on floating LIBOR rates.

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. There can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our income in the future.

The following table estimates the potential changes in net cash flow generated from interest income, should interest rates increase or decrease by 100, 200 or 300 basis points. Interest income is calculated as revenue from interest generated from the Company’s settled portfolio of investments held as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. These hypothetical calculations are based on a model of the settled investments in our portfolio, held as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and are only adjusted for assumed changes in the underlying base interest rates and the impact of that change on interest income. Interest expense is calculated based on outstanding secured borrowings as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and based on the terms of the Company’s credit facilities. Interest expense on the Company’s credit facilities is calculated using the interest rate as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, adjusted for the hypothetical changes in rates, as shown below. We intend to continue to finance a portion of our investments with borrowings and the interest rates paid on our borrowings may impact significantly our net interest income.

The Company regularly measures exposure to interest rate risk. The Company assesses interest rate risk and manages interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities. Based on that review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates.

Based on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the following table shows the annual impact on net investment income of base rate changes in interest rates for our settled investments (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) and outstanding secured borrowings assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:


	As of September 30, 2016								As of December 31, 2015
Basis Point Change	Interest Income			Interest Expense			Net Investment Income		Interest Income		Interest Expense			Net Investment Income
Up 300 basis points	$	8,407		$	(3,829	)	$	4,578	$	6,470	$	(3,546	)	$	2,924
Up 200 basis points	$	5,459		$	(2,552	)	$	2,907	$	3,999	$	(2,364	)	$	1,635

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer (Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them of material information relating to the Company that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three month period ended September 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company may become party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against the Company. See also Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. For a discussion of our potential risks and uncertainties, see the information under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the SEC on March 11, 2016, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at sec.gov.

We may be exposed to special risks associated with bankruptcy case.

One or more of our portfolio companies may be involved in bankruptcy or other reorganization or liquidation proceedings. The reorganization of a company can involve substantial legal, professional and administrative costs to a lender and the borrower. It is subject to unpredictable and lengthy delays, and during the process a company’s competitive position may erode, key management may depart and a company may not be able to invest adequately. In some cases, the debtor company may not be able to reorganize and may be required to liquidate assets. The debt of companies in financial reorganization will, in most cases, not pay current interest, may not accrue interest during reorganization and may be adversely affected by an erosion of the issuer’s fundamental value. To the extent we and an affiliate both hold investments in the same portfolio company that are of a different character, we may also face restrictions on our ability to become actively involved in the event that portfolio company becomes distressed as a result of the restrictions imposed on transactions involving affiliates under the Investment Company Act. In such cases, we may be unable to exercise rights we may otherwise have to protect our interests as security holders in such portfolio company.

Our ability to extend financial commitments may be limited.

The SEC has proposed a new Rule 18f-4 under the Investment Company Act that, if enacted in the form proposed, could adversely impact the way we and other BDCs do business. In addition to imposing restrictions on the use of derivatives, the rule would generally limit our financial commitments to portfolio companies, together with our exposure to other transactions involving senior securities entered into by us other than in reliance of the rule, to not more than 150 percent of our net asset value. We cannot assure you when or if the proposed rule will be adopted by the SEC, and if adopted, whether the final rule will constrain our ability to extend financial commitments.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Except as previously reported by the Company on Form 8-K, we did not sell any equity securities during the period covered in this report that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information.

On November 9, 2016, Michael L. Rankowitz resigned as an independent Director of the Board of Directors of the Company effective November 9, 2016. In connection therewith, Mr. Rankowitz also resigned as a member of the Audit Committee and the Pricing Committee of the Board of Directors.
