Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from the net proceeds of offerings of our securities, including our initial public offering, the Private Offerings, the Convertible Notes offering, the August 2026 Notes offering and the December 2026 Notes offering, borrowings under the KeyBank Credit Facility and cash flows from our operations, including investment sales and repayments, as well as income earned on investments and cash equivalents. Our primary use of our funds includes investments in portfolio companies, payments of interest on our outstanding debt, and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We also expect to use our funds to pay distributions to our stockholders. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our borrowings, including under the KeyBank Credit Facility or any future credit facility, and proceeds from the turnover of our portfolio to finance our investment objectives and activities.
We may, from time to time, enter into additional credit facilities, increase the size of our existing Credit Facility, or issue additional securities in private or public offerings. Any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions, and other factors.
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we experienced a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $33.5 million, which is the net result of $195.7 million of cash used in operating activities partially offset by a $0.02 million of cash provided by investing activities and $162.2 million of cash provided by financing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we experienced a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $26.6 million, which is the net result of $54.9 million of cash used in operating activities and $0.8 million of cash used in investing activities partially offset by $29.1 million of cash provided by financing activities.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $13.2 million and $46.7 million, respectively, of which $12.5 and $43.4 million, respectively, is held in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Institutional Fund. Cash held in demand deposit accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limit and therefore is subject to credit risk. All of the Company’s cash deposits are held at large established high credit quality financial institutions, and management believes that the risk of loss associated with any uninsured balances is remote. As of June 30, 2022, we did not have any restricted cash. As of December 31, 2021, restricted cash consisted of approximately $15.1 million related to the Credit Suisse Credit Facility covenants. In conjunction with the maturity of the Credit Suisse Credit Facility on January 8, 2022, the restrictions on our cash thereunder expired.
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had approximately $80.0 million and $38.1 million, respectively, of available borrowings under the KeyBank Credit Facility, subject to its terms and regulatory requirements. Cash and cash equivalents, taken together with available borrowings under the KeyBank Credit Facility, as of June 30, 2022, are expected to be sufficient for our investing activities and to conduct our operations in the near term.
Refer to “Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 5 – Borrowings” included in the notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report for a discussion of our borrowings.
Reduced Asset Coverage Requirements
In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to incur borrowings, issue debt securities or issue preferred stock, if immediately after the borrowing or issuance, the ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness plus preferred stock, is at least 150%. On September 27, 2019, the Board, including a “required majority” (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) and our initial stockholder approved the application to us of the 150% minimum asset coverage ratio set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act. As a result, we are permitted to potentially borrow $2 for investment purposes of every $1 of investor equity. As of June 30, 2022, our asset coverage ratio was approximately 177.1% and our asset coverage ratio per unit was approximately $1,770. As of December 31, 2021, our asset coverage ratio was approximately 195.8% and our asset coverage ratio per unit was approximately $1,958.
