Portfolio and Business Commentary
(All figures as of September 30, 2024, unless otherwise noted)
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share was $23.42, down 2.3% from $23.98 as of June 30, 2024. The Company’s year-to-date return through September 30, 2024 was 4.92%. The Company’s annualized distribution rate is 11.3% as of September 30, 2024.1
As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s portfolio was $503.4 million based on fair market value across 41 portfolio companies and 17 industries. The Company’s unfunded commitments was $25.9 million at September 30, 2024. Given our focus on lower middle market borrowers and our conservative structuring approach, our portfolio remained defensively positioned with 99% first lien debt investments and 99% floating rate debt investments based on fair market value. As of September 30, 2024, there were two investments placed on non-accrual status.
We continue to operate around the low end of our target leverage ratio of 0.9x to 1.0x net debt to equity and remain focused on optimizing our funding sources and liquidity. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s net leverage ratio was 1.0x2. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had remaining facility sizes totaling $79.0 million.3
Since inception and as of September 30, 2024, the Company has closed on 55 portfolio investments totaling over $818 million of commitments at the time of original closing. At the time of original closing for these 55 borrowers, the weighted average senior leverage was approximately 4.5 times, the loan-to-value ratio was approximately 39%, and the weighted average spread over reference rate to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), and Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”) was 635 bps. As of September 30, 2024, there were 41 active borrowers, 31 of which are considered platform investments in the portfolio, with total outstanding commitments, including unfunded loan commitments, of approximately $548.2 million.
1. | The annualized distribution rate is calculated by multiplying the current quarter’s (Q3 2024) regular distribution per share by four and dividing the result by the prior quarter’s (Q2 2024) ending NAV per share. If the calculation was based on the current quarter’s ending NAV per share, the annualized distribution rate would be 11.6% as of September 2024. |
2. | Net leverage ratio is defined as debt outstanding less cash and cash equivalents, divided by net assets. |
3. | Includes borrowing facility sizes of $340.0 million under our SPV facility and $80.0 million under our revolving Onex loan. |
