Third Quarter 2017 Highlights
Consolidated Results of Operations
Consolidated operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017 are as follows:
Total investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $8.9 million and net investment income was $4.2 million. Total net expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were $4.7 million.
The net change in realized and unrealized gain for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $0.2 million was driven primarily by a positive fair value adjustment on our investment in Sprint Industrial Holdings of $0.5 million and the reversal of an unrealized loss of $0.3 million on our investment in Raymond Express International. This was partially offset by a negative fair value adjustment on our preferred equity investment in Prosper Marketplace of $0.6 million.
Portfolio and Investment Activities
For the three months ended September 30, 2017, we originated one investment, closed one club investment, purchased one investment and closed add-on investments for a total of $22.0 million of par with a weighted average yield of 8.6%. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, repayments in our portfolio consisted of the paydowns of four investments and other partial repayments for a total of $23.2 million of par with a weighted average yield of 9.1%.
See below for portfolio activity table.
The following table shows select information of our portfolio as of September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017.
(i) Table excludes positions with a fair value of zero, except for the number of portfolio companies.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2017, we had cash of $14.7 million and restricted cash of $14.6 million.
In addition to proceeds from public and private offerings of our debt and equity securities and the proceeds from portfolio repayments, we have identified seven portfolio companies with a total par value of $20.5 million and a fair value of $20.0 million which we view as transitory investments. Transitory investments are generally those investments that we view as an additional source of liquidity that we are able to sell in order to fund investments that fit our core investment strategy. These transitory investments are generally at the lower end of our target portfolio yield range.
Subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions, as of September 30, 2017, we had $20.6 million available for additional borrowings under our senior secured revolving notes, $33.0 million of available SBIC leverage and no available borrowings under the GLC Trust 2013-2 Revolver.
Distributions
On November 1, 2017, our board of directors approved a distribution in the amount of $4.5 million, or $0.28 a share, which will be paid on December 22, 2017 to stockholders of record as of December 8, 2017.
Distributions are paid from taxable earnings and may include return of capital and/or capital gains. The specific tax characteristics of the distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099-DIV after the end of the calendar year and in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
