This table presents changes in net assets from shareholders'
distributions on a GAAP basis. See Note 5 for a discussion of the sources of
distributions paid by the Company.
|
(3)
|
Distributions in excess of net investment income represent
certain expenses, which are not deductable on a tax-basis. Unearned capital
gains incentive fees and certain offering expenses reduce GAAP basis net
investment income, but do not reduce tax basis net investment income. These
tax-related adjustments represent additional net investment income available
for distribution for tax purposes.

(a)
|
All of the Company's debt investments are issued by eligible
U.S. portfolio companies, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, or the 1940 Act, except for investments specifically identified
as non-qualifying per note (g) below. Except for CĪON / Capitala Senior
Loan Fund I, LLC, the Company does not control and is not an affiliate of any
of the portfolio companies in its investment portfolio. Unless specifically
identified, investments do not contain a paid-in-kind, or PIK, interest
provision.
|
(b)
|
The 1, 2 and 3 month London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR,
rates were 0.19%, 0.23% and 0.28%, respectively, as of June 30, 2015. The
actual LIBOR rate for each loan listed may not be the applicable LIBOR rate
as of June 30, 2015, as the loan may have been priced or repriced based on a
LIBOR rate prior to or subsequent to June 30, 2015.
|
(c)
|
Fair value determined by the Company’s board of directors (see
Note 9).
|
(d)
|
As discussed in Note 11, the Company was committed, upon the
satisfaction of certain conditions, to fund an additional $1,207, $3,187, and
$933 as of June 30, 2015 to ECI Acquisition Holdings, Inc., Studio Movie
Grill Holdings, LLC, and ABG Intermediate Holdings, LLC, respectively. As of
August 10, 2015, the Company was committed, upon the satisfaction of certain
conditions, to fund an additional $1,207, $2,481, and $933 to ECI Acquisition
Holdings, Inc., Studio Movie Grill Holdings, LLC, and ABG Intermediate
Holdings, LLC, respectively.
|
(e)
|
The CLO subordinated notes are considered equity positions in
the CLO vehicles and are not rated. Equity investments are entitled to
recurring distributions, which are generally equal to the remaining cash flow
of the payments made by the underlying vehicle's securities less contractual
payments to debt holders and expenses. The estimated yield indicated is based
upon a current projection of the amount and timing of these recurring
distributions and the estimated amount of repayment of principal upon
termination. Such projections are periodically reviewed and adjusted, and the
estimated yield may not ultimately be realized.
|
(f)
|
Great Lakes CLO 2014-1 Class E Notes, Ivy Hill Middle Market
Credit Fund VII Class E Notes and NXT Capital CLO 2014-1 Class E Notes were
rated Ba2 on Moody's credit scale as of June 30, 2015. JFIN CLO 2014 Class E
Notes were rated BB on S&P's credit scale as of June 30, 2015.
|
(g)
|
The investment is not a qualifying asset under the 1940 Act. A
business development company may not acquire any asset other than qualifying
assets, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets
represent at least 70% of that company’s total assets as defined under
Section 55 of the 1940 Act. As of June 30, 2015, 86.1% of the Company’s total
assets represented qualifying assets. In addition, as described in Note 7,
the Company calculates its compliance with the qualifying asset test on a
“look through” basis by treating each loan underlying the total return swap
as either a qualifying asset or non-qualifying asset based on whether the
obligor is an eligible portfolio company. On this basis, 83.6% of the Company’s
total assets represented qualifying assets as of June 30, 2015.
|
(h)
|
Position or portion thereof unsettled as of June 30, 2015.
|
(i)
|
Short term investments represent an investment in a fund that
invests in highly liquid investments with average original maturity dates of
three months or less.
|
(j)
|
Effective yield as of June 30, 2015 was <0.01%.
|
(k)
|
Security or a portion thereof was pledged as collateral
supporting the amounts outstanding, if any, under the revolving credit
facility with East West Bank as of June 30, 2015.

All of the Company's debt investments are issued by eligible
U.S. portfolio companies, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, or the 1940 Act, except for investments specifically identified

an affiliate of any of the portfolio companies in its investment portfolio.
Unless specifically identified, investments do not contain a paid-in-kind, or

The 1, 3 and 6 month LIBOR rates were 0.17%, 0.26% and 0.36%,
respectively, as of December 31, 2014. The actual LIBOR rate for each loan
listed may not be the applicable LIBOR rate as of December 31, 2014, as the
loan may have been priced or repriced based on a LIBOR rate prior to or
subsequent to December 31, 2014.

The CLO subordinated notes are considered equity positions in
the CLO vehicles and are not rated. Equity investments are entitled to
recurring distributions, which are generally equal to the remaining cash flow
of the payments made by the underlying vehicle's securities less contractual
payments to debt holders and expenses. The estimated yield indicated is based
upon a current projection of the amount and timing of these recurring
distributions and the estimated amount of repayment of principal upon
termination. Such projections are periodically reviewed and adjusted, and the
estimated yield may not ultimately be realized.

The investment is not a qualifying asset under the 1940 Act. A
business development company may not acquire any asset other than qualifying
assets, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets
represent at least 70% of that company’s total assets as defined under
Section 55 of the 1940 Act. As of December 31, 2014, 89.3% of the Company’s
total assets represented qualifying assets. In addition, as described in Note
7, the Company calculates its compliance with the qualifying asset test on a
“look through” basis by treating each loan underlying the total return swap
as either a qualifying asset or non-qualifying asset based on whether the
obligor is an eligible portfolio company. On this basis, 86.8% of the
Company’s total assets represented qualifying assets as of December 31, 2014.

CĪON Investment Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
June
30, 2015
(in
thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Note 1. Organization and Principal Business
CĪON Investment Corporation, or the
Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of
Maryland on August 9, 2011. On December 17, 2012, the Company successfully
raised gross proceeds from unaffiliated outside investors of at least $2,500,
or the minimum offering requirement, and commenced operations. The Company is
an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company
that has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC,
under the 1940 Act. The Company elected to be treated for federal income tax
purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, as defined under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code.
The Company’s
investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent,
capital appreciation for investors. The Company’s
portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured debt,
including first lien loans, second lien loans and unitranche loans, and, to a
lesser extent, collateralized securities, structured products and other similar
securities and unsecured debt, including corporate bonds and long-term
subordinated loans, referred to as mezzanine loans, of private and thinly
traded U.S. middle-market companies.
The Company is
managed by CĪON Investment Management, LLC, or CIM, a registered
investment adviser and an affiliate of the Company. CIM oversees the management
of the Company’s activities and is responsible for making investment decisions
for the Company’s investment portfolio. The Company and CIM have engaged Apollo
Investment Management, L.P., or AIM, a subsidiary of Apollo Global Management,
LLC, or, together with its subsidiaries, Apollo, a leading global alternative
investment manager, to act as the Company’s investment sub-adviser. On October 31, 2014, the board of directors of the
Company, including a majority of the board of directors who are not interested
persons, approved the renewal of the investment sub-advisory agreement with AIM
for a period of twelve months commencing December 17, 2014.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared
in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for
interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain
other information, the Company’s interim unaudited consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with its audited consolidated
financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and for the year then ended
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015. The consolidated
balance sheet and the consolidated schedule of investments as of
December 31, 2014 are derived from the 2014 audited consolidated financial
statements and include the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. The
Company does not consolidate its interest in CĪON / Capitala Senior Loan
Fund I, LLC, or CCSLF. See Note 6 for a description of the Company’s investment
in CCSLF.
The Company is
considered an investment company as defined in Accounting Standards Update
Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, or ASU Topic 946.
Accordingly, the required disclosures as outlined in ASU Topic 946 are included
in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
The
Company evaluates subsequent events through the date that the consolidated
financial statements are issued.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash
equivalents include cash in banks and highly liquid investments with original
maturity dates of three months or less. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents
are held principally at one financial institution and at times may exceed
insured limits. The Company periodically evaluates the creditworthiness of this
institution and has not experienced any losses on such deposits.
Short Term Investments
Short term
investments include an investment in a U.S. Treasury obligations fund, which
seeks to provide current income and daily liquidity by purchasing U.S. Treasury
securities and repurchase agreements that are collateralized by such
securities. The Company had $20 and $10,350 of such investments at June 30,
2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, which are included in investments, at
fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and on the
consolidated schedule of investments.

Offering, Organizational and Other Pre-Effective Costs
Offering
costs include, among other things, legal fees and other costs pertaining to the
preparation of the Company’s registration statement in connection with the
continuous public offering of the Company’s shares. Certain offering costs were
funded by IIG and its affiliates and there was no liability for these offering
costs to the Company until IIG and its affiliates submitted such costs for
reimbursement. Upon meeting the minimum offering requirement on December 17,
2012, the Company incurred and capitalized offering costs of $1,000 that were
submitted for reimbursement by IIG (see Note 4). These costs were fully
amortized over a twelve month period as an adjustment to capital in excess of
par value. The remaining offering costs funded by IIG and its affiliates were
incurred when IIG and its affiliates submitted such costs for reimbursement
during the year ended December
31, 2014.
Organizational
costs include, among other things, the cost of organizing the Company as a
Maryland corporation, including the cost of legal services and other fees
pertaining to the organization of the Company. All organizational costs were
funded by IIG and its affiliates and there was no liability for these
organizational costs to the Company until IIG and its affiliates submitted such
costs for reimbursement. The Company incurred these costs when IIG and its
affiliates submitted such costs for reimbursement during the year ended
December 31, 2014.

Income Taxes
The Company elected to be treated for
federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify
and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet
certain source of income and asset diversification requirements and distribute
to shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of the Company’s
“investment company taxable income,” which is generally the Company’s net
ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital
gains over realized net long-term capital losses. If the Company continues to qualify
as a RIC and continues to satisfy the annual distribution requirement, the
Company will not have to pay corporate level federal income taxes on any income
that the Company distributes to its shareholders. The Company intends to make
distributions in an amount sufficient to maintain RIC status each year and to
avoid any federal income taxes on income. The Company will also be subject to
nondeductible federal excise taxes if the Company does not distribute at least
98.0% of net ordinary income, 98.2% of capital gains, if any, and any
recognized and undistributed income from prior years for which it paid no
federal income taxes.
Book and tax
differences relating to permanent differences are reclassified among the
Company’s capital accounts, as appropriate. Additionally, the tax character of distributions
is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from
GAAP (see Note 5).
Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company
evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the
minimum recognition threshold for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax
liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. Recognition of a tax
benefit or liability with respect to an uncertain tax position is required only
when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming
examination by the taxing authorities. The Company recognizes interest and
penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense
in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not have any
uncertain tax positions during the periods presented herein.
The Company is subject to examination by U.S. federal, New
York State, New York City and Maryland income tax jurisdictions for 2012 and
2013.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of
the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the
Company to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may
materially differ from those estimates.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments
The fair value of the Company’s investments
is determined quarterly in good faith by the Company’s board of directors
pursuant to its consistently applied valuation procedures and valuation process
in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC 820. ASC 820 defines fair value as the
price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the
level of market price observability of inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. Inputs used to
measure these fair values are classified into the following hierarchy:
Level 1
|
-
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities, accessible by the Company at the measurement date.
|
|
|
|
Level 2
|
-
|
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active
markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in
markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted
prices.
|
|
|
|
Level 3
|
-
|
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The inputs used
in the determination of fair value may require significant management
judgment or estimation. Such information may be the result of consensus
pricing information or broker quotes that include a disclaimer that the
broker would not be held to such a price in an actual transaction. The
non-binding nature of consensus pricing and/or quotes accompanied by the
disclaimer would result in classification as a Level 3 asset, assuming no
additional corroborating evidence.
|
Market price observability is affected by a number of
factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to
the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for
which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will
have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of
judgment used in measuring fair value.
Based on the observability
of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to
provide disclosures on fair value measurements according to the fair value
hierarchy. The level in the fair value hierarchy for each fair value
measurement has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is
significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance
of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires
judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The level assigned
to the investment valuations may not be indicative of the risk or liquidity
associated with investing in such investments. Because of the inherent
uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may
differ materially from the value that would be received upon an actual sale of
such investments. In
addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur
over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses that the Company
ultimately realizes on these investments to materially differ from the
valuations currently assigned.
The Company’s
investments, excluding short term investments, consist
primarily of debt securities that are traded on a private over-the-counter
market for institutional investments. CIM attempts to obtain market quotations
from at least two brokers or dealers for each investment (if available,
otherwise from a principal market maker or a primary market dealer or other
independent pricing service). CIM utilizes mid-market pricing to determine fair
value unless a different point within the range is more representative. Because
of the private nature of this marketplace (meaning actual transactions are not
publicly reported), the Company believes that these valuation inputs result in
Level 3 classification within the fair value hierarchy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if in the
reasonable judgment of CIM, the price of any investment held by the Company and
determined in the manner described above does not accurately reflect the fair
value of such investment, CIM will value such investment at a price that
reflects such investment’s fair value and report such change in the valuation
to the board of directors or its designee as soon as practicable. Investments
that carry certain restrictions on sale will typically be valued at a discount
from the public market value of the investment.
Any investments
that are not publicly traded or for which a market price is not otherwise
readily available are valued at a price that reflects its fair value. With
respect to such investments, the investments are reviewed and valued using one
or more of the following types of analyses:
i.
Market comparable statistics and
public trading multiples discounted for illiquidity, minority ownership and
other factors for companies with similar characteristics.
ii.
Valuations implied by third-party
investments in the applicable portfolio companies.
iii.
Discounted cash flow analysis,
including a terminal value or exit multiple.

Determination of
fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, these
notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements refer to the
uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any
change in such valuations, on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Below is a description of factors that the Company’s board of directors may
consider when valuing the Company’s equity and debt investments where a market
price is not readily available:
·
the size and scope of a portfolio
company and its specific strengths and weaknesses;
·
prevailing interest rates for like
securities;
·
expected volatility in future
interest rates;
·
leverage;
·
call features, put features and
other relevant terms of the debt;
·
the borrower’s ability to adequately
service its debt;
·
the fair market value of the
portfolio company in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt;
·
the quality of collateral securing
the Company’s debt investments;
·
multiples of earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net
income, revenues or, in some cases, book value or liquidation value; and
·
other factors deemed applicable.
All of these
factors may be subject to adjustment based upon the particular circumstances of
a portfolio company or the Company’s actual investment position. For example,
adjustments to EBITDA may take into account compensation to previous owners, or
acquisition, recapitalization, and restructuring expenses or other related or
non-recurring items. The choice of analyses and the weight assigned to such
factors may vary across investments and may change within an investment if
events occur that warrant such a change.
The discounted cash
flow model deemed appropriate by CIM is prepared for the applicable investments
and reviewed by the Company’s valuation committee consisting of senior
management. Such models are prepared at least quarterly or on an as needed
basis. The model uses the estimated cash flow projections for the underlying
investments and an appropriate discount rate is determined based on the latest
financial information available for the borrower, prevailing market trends,
comparable analysis and other inputs. The model, key assumptions, inputs, and
results are reviewed by the Company’s valuation committee with final approval
from the board of directors.
Consistent with the
Company’s valuation policy, the Company evaluates the source of inputs,
including any markets in which the Company’s investments are trading, in
determining fair value.
The Company periodically
benchmarks the broker quotes from the brokers or dealers against the actual
prices at which the Company purchases and sells its investments. Based on the
results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of the Company’s
management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Company believes
that these quotes are reliable indicators of fair value. The Company may also
use other methods to determine fair value for securities for which it cannot
obtain market quotations through brokers or dealers, including the use of an
independent valuation firm. The Company periodically benchmarks the valuations
provided by an independent valuation firm against the actual prices at which it
purchases and sells its investments. The Company’s valuation committee and
board of directors review and approve the valuation determinations made with
respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Company’s
valuation process.
The value of the total return swap, or TRS,
is primarily based on the increase or decrease in the value of the loans
underlying the TRS, as determined by the Company. The loans underlying the TRS
are valued in the same manner as loans owned by the Company. As in all cases,
the level in the fair value hierarchy for each instrument is determined based
on the lowest level of inputs that are significant to the fair value
measurement. The Company has classified the TRS as Level 3 within the fair
value hierarchy based on the lowest level of significant inputs. For additional
information on the TRS, see Note 7.

Revenue Recognition
Securities
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The Company records interest
and dividend income on an accrual basis beginning on the trade settlement date
or the ex-dividend date, respectively, to the extent that the Company expects
to collect such amounts. Loan origination fees, original issue discounts, and
market discounts/premiums are recorded and such amounts are amortized as
adjustments to interest income over the respective term of the loan using the
effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any
unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income. The Company
records prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income
when it receives such amounts. In addition, the Company may generate revenue in
the form of commitment, structuring or diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees
for providing managerial assistance and possibly consulting fees and
performance-based fees. Any such fees generated in connection with investments
are recognized when earned.
The Company may
have investments in its investment portfolio that contain a PIK interest
provision. Any PIK interest would be added to the principal balance of such
investments and is recorded as income, if the portfolio company valuation
indicates that such PIK interest is collectible. In order to maintain RIC
status, substantially all of this income must be paid out to shareholders in
the form of distributions, even if the Company has not collected any cash. For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not
record any PIK interest from its investments.
Loans and debt securities, including those that are
individually identified as being impaired under Accounting Standards
Codification 310, Receivables, or
ASC 310, are generally placed on nonaccrual status immediately if, in the
opinion of management, principal or interest is not likely to be paid in
accordance with the terms of the debt agreement, or when principal or interest
is past due 90 days or more. Interest accrued but not collected at the date a
loan or security is placed on nonaccrual status is reversed against interest income. Interest
income is recognized on nonaccrual loans or debt securities only to the extent
received in cash. However, where there is doubt regarding the ultimate
collectibility of principal, cash
receipts, whether designated as principal or interest, are thereafter applied
to reduce the carrying value of the loan or debt security. Loans or securities
are restored to accrual status only when interest and principal payments are
brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Net Realized
Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation
Gains
or losses on the sale of investments are calculated by using the
weighted-average method. The Company measures realized gains or losses by the
difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the
weighted-average amortized cost of the investment, without regard to unrealized
appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized
upfront fees and prepayment penalties. Net change in unrealized appreciation or
depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the
reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized
appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.
Derivative Instrument
The Company’s only
derivative instrument is the TRS. The Company marks its derivative to market
through net change in unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on total return
swap in the consolidated statements of operations. For additional information
on the TRS, see Note 7.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee
Pursuant
to the terms of the investment advisory agreement the Company entered into with
CIM, the incentive fee on capital gains earned on liquidated investments of the
Company’s investment portfolio during operations is determined and payable in
arrears as of the end of each calendar year. Such fee equals 20% of the
Company’s incentive fee capital gains (i.e., the Company’s realized capital
gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of each
calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized
capital depreciation on a cumulative basis), less the aggregate amount of any
previously paid capital gains incentive fees. On a cumulative basis and to the
extent that all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation
exceed realized capital gains as well as the aggregate realized net capital
gains for which a fee has previously been paid, the Company would not be
required to pay CIM a capital gains incentive fee. On a quarterly basis, the
Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as
if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.
CIM
has not taken any incentive fees with respect to the Company`s TRS to date. For
purposes of computing the capital gains incentive fee, CIM will become entitled
to a capital gains incentive fee only upon the termination or disposition of
the TRS, at which point all net gains and losses of the underlying loans
constituting the reference assets of the TRS will be realized. Any unrealized
gains on the TRS are reflected in total assets on the Company`s consolidated
balance sheets and included in the computation of the base management fee.
While the investment advisory agreement
with CIM neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in
the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an
interpretation of the American Institute for Certified Public Accountants, or
AICPA, Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, the Company accrues
capital gains incentive fees on unrealized gains. This accrual reflects the
incentive fees that would be payable to CIM if the Company’s entire investment
portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even
though CIM is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains
unless and until such gains are actually realized.
Net Increase in Net Assets per Share
Net increase in net
assets per share is calculated based upon the daily weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period.
Distributions
Distributions to shareholders are recorded
as of the record date. The amount to be paid as a distribution is determined by
the board of directors on a monthly basis. Net realized capital gains, if any,
are distributed at least annually.
Note 3.

(in
thousands, except share and per share amounts)
During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company
sold 24,598,219 and 17,443,973 shares, respectively, at an average price per
share of $10.30 and $10.27, respectively.
Reinvestment of shareholder distributions and
share repurchases are included in the gross proceeds from the Company’s
offering for purposes of determining the total amount of offering and
organizational costs that can be paid by the Company (see Note 4).
As of June 30, 2015, the Company sold
78,325,613 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $803,582 at an average
price per share of $10.26. The net proceeds include gross proceeds received
from reinvested shareholder distributions of $25,392, for which the Company
issued 2,699,360 shares of common stock, and gross proceeds paid for shares of
common stock tendered for repurchase of $1,343, for which the Company
repurchased 142,775 shares of common stock.
During the period from July 1, 2015 to
August 12, 2015, the Company sold 6,205,900 shares of common stock for net
proceeds of $64,008 at an average price per share of $10.31. The net proceeds
include gross proceeds received from reinvested shareholder distributions of
$5,151, for which the Company issued 547,677 shares of common stock, and gross
proceeds paid for shares of common stock tendered for repurchase of $4,228, for
which the Company repurchased 449,538 shares of common stock.
Since commencing its continuous public
offering on July 2, 2012 and through August 12, 2015, the Company sold
84,531,513 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $867,590 at an average
price per share of $10.26. The net proceeds include gross proceeds received
from reinvested shareholder distributions of $30,543, for which the Company
issued 3,247,037 shares of common stock, and gross proceeds paid for shares of
common stock tendered for repurchase of $5,571, for which the Company
repurchased 592,313 shares of common stock.
On December 28, 2012, January 31, 2013,
March 14, 2013, May 15, 2013, August 15, 2013, and February 4, 2014, the
Company’s board of directors increased the public offering price per share of
common stock under the Company’s offering to $10.04, $10.13, $10.19, $10.24,
$10.32 and $10.45 per share, respectively, to ensure that the associated
offering price per share, net of sales commissions and dealer manager fees,
equaled or exceeded the net asset value per share on each subsequent
subscription closing date and distribution reinvestment date.
Share Repurchase Program
Beginning in the first quarter of 2014, the
Company began offering, and on a quarterly basis thereafter it intends to
continue offering, to repurchase shares on such terms as may be determined by
the Company’s board of directors in its complete and absolute discretion
unless, in the judgment of the independent directors of the Company’s board of
directors, such repurchases would not be in the best interests of the Company’s
shareholders or would violate applicable law.
The Company currently limits the number of
shares to be repurchased during any calendar year to the number of shares it
can repurchase with the proceeds it receives from the issuance of shares
pursuant to its second amended and restated distribution reinvestment plan. At
the discretion of the Company’s board of directors, it may also use cash on
hand, cash available from borrowings and cash from liquidation of investments
as of the end of the applicable period to repurchase shares. In addition, the
Company limits the number of shares to be repurchased in any calendar year to
15% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding in the prior calendar
year, or 3.75% in each quarter, though the actual number of shares that it
offers to repurchase may be less in light of the limitations noted above. The
Company offers to repurchase such shares at a price equal to 90% of the
offering price in effect on each date of repurchase.
Any periodic repurchase offers are subject
in part to the Company’s available cash and compliance with the BDC and RIC qualification
and diversification rules promulgated under the 1940 Act and the Code,
respectively. While the Company conducts quarterly tender offers as described
above, it is not required to do so and may suspend or terminate the share
repurchase program at any time, upon 30 days’ notice.
The following table summarizes the share repurchases
completed during the six months ended June 30, 2015:

The Company has entered
into certain agreements with CIM’s affiliate, CĪON Securities, LLC,
formerly known as ICON Securities, LLC, or CĪON Securities, whereby the
Company pays certain fees and reimbursements. CĪON Securities is entitled
to receive a 3% dealer manager fee from gross offering proceeds from the sale
of the Company’s shares. The selling dealers are entitled to receive a sales
commission of up to 7% of gross offering proceeds. Such costs are charged
against capital in excess of par value when incurred. Since commencing its
continuous public offering on July 2, 2012 and through August 12, 2015, the
Company paid or accrued sales commissions of $50,598 to the selling dealers and
dealer manager fees of $24,689 to CĪON Securities.
The Company has entered
into an investment advisory agreement with CIM. On October 31, 2014, the board
of directors of the Company, including a majority of the board of
directors who are not interested persons, approved the renewal of the investment
advisory agreement for a period of twelve months commencing December 17,
2014. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, CIM is paid an annual base
management fee equal to 2.0% of the average value of the Company’s gross
assets, less cash and cash equivalents, and an incentive fee based on the
Company’s performance, as described below. The incentive fee consists of two
parts. The first part, which is referred to as the subordinated incentive fee
on income, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on
“pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter
and is subject to a hurdle rate, measured quarterly and expressed as a rate of
return on adjusted capital, as defined in the investment advisory agreement,
equal to 1.875% per quarter, or an annualized rate of 7.5%. The second part of
the incentive fee, which is referred to as the incentive fee on capital gains,
is described in Note 2. Refer to Note 7 for a discussion of CIM’s entitlement
to receive incentive fees and accrual of the incentive fee on capital gains
with respect to the TRS.
The Company accrues the capital gains
incentive fee based on net realized gains and unrealized appreciation; however,
under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, the fee payable to CIM is
based on net realized gains and unrealized depreciation and no such fee is
payable with respect to unrealized appreciation unless and until such appreciation
is actually realized. For the three and six months
ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded
capital gains incentive fees of ($243) and $1,211, respectively, related
to changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation. For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded capital gains incentive fees
related to unrealized appreciation of $11 and $398, respectively.
At June 30, 2015, the Company’s liability
for capital gains incentive fees was $1,211, which represents capital gains
incentive fees related to unrealized appreciation. With respect to the TRS, CIM
will become entitled to a capital gains incentive fee only upon the termination
or disposition of the TRS, at which point all net gains and losses of the
underlying loans constituting the reference assets of the TRS will be realized.
See Note 2 and Note 7 for an additional discussion of CIM’s entitlement to
receive incentive fees and accrual of the incentive fee on capital gains with
respect to the TRS.
The Company entered into
an administration agreement with CIM’s affiliate, ICON Capital, LLC, or ICON
Capital, pursuant to which ICON Capital furnishes the Company with administrative
services including accounting, investor relations and other administrative
services necessary to conduct its day-to-day operations. On October 31, 2014,
the board of directors of the Company, including a majority of the board
of
CĪON Investment Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
June
30, 2015
(in
thousands, except share and per share amounts)
directors who are not interested persons, approved
the renewal of the administration agreement for a period of twelve months
commencing December 17, 2014. ICON Capital is reimbursed for administrative
expenses it incurs on the Company’s behalf in performing its obligations, provided
that such reimbursement will be for the lower of ICON Capital’s actual costs or
the amount that the Company would be required to pay for comparable
administrative services in the same geographic location. Such costs will be
reasonably allocated to the Company on the basis of assets, revenues, time
records or other reasonable methods. The Company will not reimburse ICON
Capital for any services for which it receives a separate fee or for rent,
depreciation, utilities, capital equipment or other administrative items
allocated to a person with a controlling interest in ICON Capital.
Under the terms of the
investment advisory agreement, CIM and certain of its affiliates, which
includes IIG, are entitled to receive reimbursement of up to 1.5% of the gross
proceeds raised until all offering and organizational costs have been
reimbursed. The Company’s payment of offering and organizational costs will not
exceed 1.5% of the actual gross proceeds raised from the offering (without
giving effect to any potential reimbursements from IIG and its affiliates). If
the Company sells the maximum number of shares at its latest public offering
price of $10.45 per share, the Company estimates that it may incur up to
approximately $15,675 of expenses. Previously, the Company interpreted “raised”
to mean all gross proceeds that the Company expected to raise through the
completion of the offering of its shares, which could be as late as December
31, 2015, rather than actual gross proceeds raised through the date of
reimbursement. Consistent with such application and since the Company believed
it would raise at least $100,000 through the completion of the offering of its
shares, upon commencement of operations on December 17, 2012, the Company
issued 111,111 shares of the Company’s common stock at $9.00 per share to IIG
in lieu of payment of $1,000 for offering and organizational costs submitted
for reimbursement. The transactions satisfied an independent obligation of IIG
to invest $1,000 in the Company’s shares. Through that date, the Company had
raised gross proceeds from unaffiliated outside investors of $2,639 and from
affiliated investors of $2,000, which, applying 1.5% of actual proceeds raised
through the date of reimbursement, would have resulted in CIM being entitled to
$70.
With respect to the
payment of offering and organizational costs, the Company will continue to
interpret the 1.5% limit based on actual gross proceeds raised at the time of
such reimbursement. In addition, the Company will not issue any of
its shares or other securities for services or for property other than cash or securities
except as a dividend or distribution to its security holders or in connection
with a reorganization. Consistent with this interpretation, on May
30, 2013, IIG paid the Company $1,000, plus interest accrued at a rate of 7%
per year.
From inception through June
30, 2015, IIG and its affiliates incurred offering, organizational and other
pre-effective costs of $2,012. Of these costs, $1,812 represented offering and
organizational costs, all of which have been submitted to the Company for
reimbursement. The Company paid $450 in October 2013, $550 in March 2014, $592
in May 2014 and $420 in March 2015. No additional material offering,
organizational or other pre-effective costs have been incurred by IIG or its
affiliates subsequent to June 30, 2015.
As of June 30, 2015, the
Company raised gross proceeds of $803,582, of which it can pay up to $12,054 in
offering and organizational costs (which represents 1.5% of the actual gross
proceeds raised). Through June 30, 2015, the Company paid $7,227 of such costs,
leaving an additional $4,827 that can be paid. As of August 12, 2015, the
Company raised gross proceeds of $867,590, of which it can pay up to $13,014 in
offering and organizational costs (which represents 1.5% of the actual gross
offering proceeds raised). Through August 12, 2015, the Company paid $7,592 of
such costs, leaving an additional $5,422 that can be paid.
On January 30, 2013, the Company entered
into the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement with IIG,
whereby IIG agreed to reimburse the Company for expenses in an amount that is
sufficient to: (1) ensure that no portion of the Company’s distributions to
shareholders will be paid from its offering proceeds or borrowings, and/or (2)
reduce the Company’s operating expenses until it has achieved economies of
scale sufficient to ensure that it bears a reasonable level of expense in
relation to its investment income. Pursuant to the expense support and
conditional reimbursement agreement, the Company has a conditional obligation
to reimburse IIG for any amounts funded by IIG under such agreement if, during
any fiscal quarter occurring within three years of the date on which IIG funded
such amount, the sum of the Company’s net investment income for tax purposes,
net capital gains and the amount of any dividends and other distributions paid
to the Company on account of investments in portfolio companies exceeds the
distributions paid by the Company to its shareholders. For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2015, the Company did not receive any expense
reimbursements from IIG. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the
total expense reimbursement from IIG was $1,049 relating to certain operating
expenses.
On December 13,
2013 and January 16, 2015, the Company and IIG amended the expense support and
conditional reimbursement agreement to extend the termination date of such
agreement from January 30, 2014 to January 30, 2015 and from January 30, 2015
to December 31, 2015, respectively.

investment income or net capital gains for tax purposes) exceeds the
distributions paid by the Company to shareholders, and (iii) during any fiscal
quarter occurring within three years of the date on which IIG funded such
amount. The obligation to reimburse IIG for any expense support provided by IIG
under such agreement is further conditioned by the following: (i) in the period
in which reimbursement is sought, the ratio of operating expenses to average
net assets, when considering the reimbursement, cannot exceeded the ratio of
operating expenses to average net assets for the period when the expense
support was provided; (ii) in the period when reimbursement is sought, the
annualized distribution rate cannot fall below the annualized distribution rate
for the period when the expense support was provided; and (iii) the expense
support can only be reimbursed within three years from the date the expense
support was provided.
Reimbursement of such
costs will be determined as appropriate to meet the objectives of the expense
support and conditional reimbursement agreement. During the three and six months
ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded obligations to repay expense
reimbursements to IIG of $1,592 and $2,429, respectively. During the three and
six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded an obligation to repay
$600 of expense reimbursements to IIG. The Company
may or may not be requested to reimburse any remaining costs in the future.
As of June 30, 2015 and
December 31, 2014, the total net liability payable to CIM and its affiliates
was $5,589 and $2,303, respectively, which primarily related to fees earned by
CIM during the preceding three months of each period.
The Company or IIG may
terminate the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement at any
time. IIG has indicated that it expects to continue such reimbursements until
it deems that the Company has achieved economies of scale sufficient to ensure
that it bears a reasonable level of expenses in relation to its income. If the
Company terminates the investment advisory agreement with CIM, the Company may
be required to repay IIG all reimbursements funded by IIG within three years of
the date of termination. The specific amount of expenses reimbursed by IIG, if
any, will be determined at the end of each quarter. There can be no assurance
that the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement will remain in
effect or that IIG will reimburse any portion of the Company’s expenses in
future quarters.

(in
thousands, except share and per share amounts)
The Company may fund its cash distributions to shareholders from
any sources of funds available to the Company, including offering proceeds,
borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from
the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets,
dividends or other distributions paid to it on account of preferred and common
equity investments in portfolio companies and expense reimbursements from IIG,
which are subject to recoupment. The Company has not established limits on the
amount of funds it may use from available sources to make
distributions. Through December 31, 2014, a portion of the Company’s
distributions resulted, and future distributions may result, from expense
reimbursements from IIG, which are subject to repayment by the Company within
three years. The purpose of this arrangement is to avoid such
distributions being characterized as a return of capital. Shareholders should
understand that any such distributions are not based on the Company’s investment
performance, and can only be sustained if the Company achieves positive
investment performance in future periods and/or IIG continues to make such
expense reimbursements. Shareholders should also understand that the Company’s
future repayments will reduce the distributions that they would otherwise
receive. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve such
performance in order to sustain these distributions, or be able to pay
distributions at all. IIG has no obligation to provide expense reimbursements
to the Company in future periods. For the three and six months ended June 30,
2015, the Company did not receive any expense reimbursements from IIG. For the
six months ended June 30, 2014, if expense reimbursements from IIG were not
supported, some or all of the distributions may have been a return of capital.
Because CIM’s senior management team is
comprised of substantially the same personnel as the senior management team of
the Company’s affiliate, ICON Capital, which is the investment manager to certain
equipment finance funds, or equipment funds, such members of senior management
provide investment advisory and management services to the equipment funds in
addition to the Company. In the event that CIM undertakes to provide investment
advisory services to other clients in the future, it will strive to allocate
investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner consistent with the
Company’s investment objective and strategies so that the Company will not be
disadvantaged in relation to any other client of the investment adviser or its
senior management team. However, it is currently possible that some investment
opportunities will be provided to the equipment funds or other clients of CIM
rather than to the Company.
Indemnifications
The investment advisory agreement, the
investment sub-advisory agreement, the administration agreement and the dealer manager
agreement each provide certain indemnifications from the Company to the other
relevant parties to such agreements. The Company’s maximum exposure under
these agreements is unknown. However, the Company has not experienced claims or
losses pursuant to these agreements and believes the risk of loss related to
such indemnifications to be remote.
Note 5. Distributions
The Company’s board of directors declared
distributions for forty-nine and twenty-six record dates during the year ended
December 31, 2014 and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Declared
distributions are paid monthly.

On February 1, 2014, the Company changed
from semi-monthly closings to weekly closings for the sale of the Company’s
shares pursuant to its continuous public offering. As a result, the Company’s
board of directors authorizes and declares on a monthly basis a
weekly distribution amount per share of common stock.
On June 15, 2015, the Company’s board of
directors declared four weekly cash distributions of $0.014067 per share, which
were paid on July 29, 2015 to shareholders of record on July 7, July 14, July 21,
and July 28, 2015. On July 15, 2015 the Company`s board of directors declared
four weekly cash distributions of $0.014067 per share, payable on August 26,
2015 to shareholders of record on August 4, August 11, August 18, and August
25, 2015.

The Company has adopted an “opt in” distribution
reinvestment plan for shareholders. As a result, if the Company makes a
distribution, shareholders will receive distributions in cash unless they
specifically “opt in” to the second amended and restated distribution
reinvestment plan so as to have their cash distributions reinvested in
additional shares of the Company’s common stock.
The Company may fund cash distributions to
shareholders in the future from any sources of funds available, including
offering proceeds, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital
gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the
sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account
of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies and expense
reimbursements from IIG. Through December 31, 2014, a portion of the Company’s
distributions resulted, and future distributions may result, from expense
reimbursements from IIG, which are subject to repayment by the Company. The
Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from
available sources to make distributions.

Distributions from net investment income includes expense

|
(2)
|
Distributions in excess of net investment income represent
certain expenses, which are not deductable on a tax-basis. Unearned capital
gains incentive fees and certain offering expenses reduce GAAP basis net
investment income, but do not reduce tax basis net investment income. These
tax-related adjustments represent additional net investment income available
for distribution for tax purposes.
|
It is the Company's
policy to comply with all requirements of the Code applicable to RICs and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. In
addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its
net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if
any, the Company intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.
Accordingly, no federal income tax provision was required.
Income and
capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with the Code and
federal tax regulations, which may differ from amounts determined in accordance
with GAAP. These book/tax differences, which could be material, are primarily
due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investments held by
the Company. Permanent book/tax differences result in reclassifications to
capital in excess of par value, accumulated undistributed net investment
income, accumulated undistributed realized gain on investments, and accumulated
undistributed realized gain on total return swap. During 2014, the Company did
not have any reclassifications as a result of permanent book/tax differences.
The determination of the tax attributes of
the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s
fiscal year based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full year and
distributions paid for the full year. The tax characteristics of distributions
to shareholders are reported to shareholders annually on Form 1099-DIV. Except
for $162 of long-term capital gains, all distributions for 2014 were
characterized as ordinary income distributions for federal income tax purposes.
The tax components of accumulated earnings
for the current year will be determined at year end. As of December 31, 2014,
the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

CĪON /
Capitala Senior Loan Fund I, LLC
On June 24, 2015, the Company entered into
a joint venture with Capitala Finance Corp., or Capitala, to create CCSLF. CCSLF
is expected to invest primarily in senior secured loans. All portfolio and
other material decisions regarding CCSLF must be submitted to its board of
managers, which is comprised of four members, two of whom were selected by the
Company and the other two were selected by Capitala. Further, all portfolio and
other material decisions require the affirmative vote of at least one member
from the Company and one member from Capitala.
The Company and Capitala have committed to
provide an aggregate of up to $50,000 of equity to CCSLF, with the Company
providing up to $40,000 and Capitala providing up to $10,000. In
addition, CCSLF intends to obtain third party asset-level financing. As of
and for the three months ended June 30, 2015, CCSLF held no assets and generated
no net income and as a result, is not included on the Company’s consolidated
schedule of investments as of June 30, 2015. The Company and Capitala intend to
begin funding CCSLF with new investments sometime during 2015, at which point
CCSLF will be a controlled investment as defined by the 1940 Act. An investment
is controlled under the 1940 Act when a company owns more than 25% of the
portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities or maintains the ability to
nominate greater than 50% of the portfolio company's board representation.
The Company has determined that CCSLF is an
investment company under ASC 946. However, in accordance with such guidance,
the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other
than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating
company whose business consists of providing services to the Company.
Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate CCSLF.
As of August 10, 2015, the Company’s
unfunded commitment to CCSLF was $40,000.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
June
30, 2015
(in
thousands, except share and per share amounts)
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014,
there were no delinquent or non-accrual debt investments.
Except for CCSLF,
the Company does not “control” and is not an “affiliate” of any of its
portfolio companies, each as defined in the 1940 Act. In general, under the
1940 Act, the Company would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company or
issuer if the Company owned 25% or more of its voting securities and would be
an “affiliate” of a portfolio company or issuer if the Company owned 5% or more
of its voting securities.
The Company’s investment
portfolio may contain senior secured investments that are in the form of lines
of credit, revolving credit facilities, or unfunded commitments, which may
require the Company to provide funding when requested in accordance with the
terms of the underlying agreements. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014,
the Company’s unfunded commitments amounted to $45,327 and $23,112,
respectively. As of August 10, 2015, the Company’s unfunded commitments
amounted to $44,621. Since these
commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. Refer to Note 11 for further details
on the Company’s unfunded commitments.
Note 7. Total Return Swap
On December 17, 2012, the Company, through
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Flatiron Funding, LLC, or Flatiron, entered into a
TRS with Citibank. Effective December 9, 2013, Flatiron and Citibank amended
the TRS to, among other things, increase the maximum aggregate market value of
the portfolio of loans subject to the TRS (determined at the time each such
loan becomes subject to the TRS) from $150,000 to $225,000, and increase the
interest rate payable by Flatiron to Citibank with respect to each loan included
in the TRS by increasing the spread over the floating rate index specified for
each such loan from 1.25% to 1.35% per year. Flatiron and Citibank further
amended the TRS to increase the maximum aggregate market value of the portfolio
of loans subject to the TRS to $275,000 effective February 18, 2014, to
$325,000 effective April 30, 2014, to $375,000 effective July 30, 2014, to
$475,000 effective September 5, 2014, to $600,000 effective January 20, 2015
and to $750,000 effective March 4, 2015. Effective November 18, 2014, Flatiron
and Citibank further amended the TRS to extend the termination or call date
from December 17, 2014 to December 17, 2015. The agreements between
Flatiron and Citibank, which collectively establish the TRS, are referred to herein
as the TRS Agreement.
A TRS is a contract in which one party
agrees to make periodic payments to another party based on the change in the
market value of the assets underlying the TRS and interest payments in return
for periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate. A TRS
effectively adds leverage to a portfolio by providing investment exposure to a
security or market without owning or taking physical custody of such security
or investing directly in such market. Because of the unique structure of a TRS,
a TRS typically offers lower financing costs than are offered through more
traditional borrowing arrangements.
The TRS with Citibank enables the Company,
through its ownership of Flatiron, to obtain the economic benefit of owning the
loans subject to the TRS, without actually owning them, in return for an
interest-type payment to Citibank. As such, the TRS is analogous to Flatiron
borrowing funds to acquire loans and incurring interest expense to a lender.
The obligations of Flatiron under the TRS
are non-recourse to the Company and the Company’s exposure under the TRS is
limited to the value of the Company’s investment in Flatiron, which generally
will equal the value of cash collateral provided by Flatiron under the TRS.
Pursuant to the terms of the TRS, Flatiron may select loans with a maximum
aggregate market value (determined at the time each such loan becomes subject
to the TRS) of $750,000. Flatiron is required to initially cash collateralize a
specified percentage of each loan (generally 25% of the market value of such
loan) included under the TRS in accordance with margin requirements described
in the TRS Agreement. Under the terms of the TRS, Flatiron agreed not to draw
upon, or post as collateral, such cash collateral in respect of other
financings or operating requirements prior to the termination of the TRS.
Neither the cash collateral required to be posted with Citibank nor any other
assets of Flatiron are available to pay the debts of the Company.
Each individual loan must meet criteria
described in the TRS Agreement, including a requirement that substantially all
of the loans be rated by Moody’s and S&P, be part of a loan facility of at
least $125 million and have at least two bid quotations from a nationally-recognized
pricing service. Under the terms of the TRS, Citibank, as calculation agent,
determines whether there has been a failure to satisfy the portfolio criteria
in the TRS. If such failure continues for 30 days following the delivery of
notice thereof, then Citibank has the right, but not the obligation, to
terminate the TRS. Flatiron receives from Citibank all interest and fees
payable in respect of the loans included in the TRS. Flatiron pays to Citibank
interest at a rate equal to, in respect of each loan included in the TRS, the
floating rate index specified for such loan plus 1.35% per year. In addition,
upon the termination or repayment of any loan subject to the TRS, Flatiron will
either receive from Citibank the appreciation in the value of such loan or pay
to Citibank any depreciation in the value of such loan.
Under the terms of the TRS, Flatiron may be
required to post additional cash collateral, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, in
the event of depreciation in the value of the underlying loans after such value
decreases below a specified amount. The limit on the additional collateral that
Flatiron may be required to post pursuant to the TRS is equal to the difference
between the full notional amount of the loans underlying the TRS and the amount
of cash collateral already posted by Flatiron. The amount of collateral
required to be posted by Flatiron is determined primarily on the basis of the
aggregate value of the underlying loans.
CĪON Investment Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
June
30, 2015
(in
thousands, except share and per share amounts)
The Company has no contractual obligation to post any such
additional collateral or to make any interest payments to Citibank on behalf of
Flatiron. The Company may, but is not obligated to, increase its investment in
Flatiron for the purpose of funding any additional collateral or payment
obligations for which Flatiron may become obligated during the term of the TRS.
If the Company does not make any such additional investment in Flatiron and
Flatiron fails to meet its obligations under the TRS, then Citibank will have
the right to terminate the TRS and seize the cash collateral posted by Flatiron
under the TRS. In the event of an early termination of the TRS, Flatiron would
be required to pay an early termination fee.
Citibank may terminate the TRS on or after
December 17, 2015, or the call date. Flatiron may terminate the TRS at any time
upon providing no more than 30 days prior notice to Citibank. Any termination
prior to the call date will result in payment of an early termination fee to
Citibank based on the maximum portfolio amount of the TRS. Under the terms of
the TRS, the early termination fee will equal the present value of a stream of
monthly payments that would be owed by Flatiron to Citibank for the period from
the termination date through and including the call date. Such monthly payments
will equal the product of 80% of the maximum portfolio amount, multiplied by 1.35%
per year. The Company estimates the early termination fee would have been
approximately $3,811 at June 30, 2015. Flatiron may also be required to pay a
minimum usage fee in connection with the TRS. As of June 30, 2015 and December
31, 2014, Flatiron owed Citibank a minimum usage fee of $23 and $16,
respectively.
The value of the TRS is based on the
increase or decrease in the value of the loans underlying the TRS, as
determined by the Company. The loans underlying the TRS are valued in the same
manner as loans owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31,
2014, the fair value of the TRS was ($1,610), and ($4,409), respectively. The
fair value of the TRS is reflected as unrealized depreciation on total return
swap on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The change in value of the
TRS is reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as net
change in unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on total return swap. As of
June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, Flatiron had selected 100 and 69
underlying loans with a total notional amount of $654,602 and $431,979,
respectively. For the same periods, Flatiron posted $175,023 and $128,388 in
cash collateral held by Citibank (of which only $171,195 and $116,564 was required to be posted), which is
reflected in due from counterparty on the Company’s consolidated balance
sheets.
Realized gains and losses on the TRS are
composed of any gains or losses on loans underlying the TRS as well as net
interest and fees earned during the period. Receivable due on the TRS is
composed of any amounts due from Citibank that consist of earned but not yet
collected net interest and fees and net gains on sales and principal repayments
of underlying loans of the TRS. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the
net receivable on the TRS consisted of the following:

In connection with the TRS, Flatiron is required to comply with
various covenants and reporting requirements as defined in the TRS Agreement.
As of June 30, 2015, Flatiron was in compliance with all covenants and
reporting requirements.
CIM has not taken any incentive fees with
respect to the Company’s TRS to date. For purposes of computing the capital
gains incentive fee, CIM will become entitled to a capital gains incentive fee
only upon the termination or disposition of the TRS, at which point all net
gains and losses of the underlying loans constituting the reference assets of
the TRS will be realized. For purposes of computing the subordinated incentive
fee on income, CIM is not entitled to a subordinated incentive fee on income
with respect to the TRS. The net unrealized appreciation on the TRS, if any, is
reflected in total assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and
included in the computation of the base management fee. The base management fee
does not include any net unrealized depreciation on the TRS as such amounts are
not included in total assets.
While the
investment advisory agreement with CIM neither includes nor contemplates the
inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive
fee, pursuant to an interpretation of the AICPA Technical Practice Aid for
investment companies, the Company accrues capital gains incentive fees on
unrealized gains. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be
payable to CIM if the Company’s entire investment portfolio was liquidated at
its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though CIM is not entitled to
an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains
are actually realized.
For purposes of the asset coverage ratio
test applicable to the Company as a BDC, the Company treats the outstanding
notional amount of the TRS, less the total amount of cash collateral posted by
Flatiron under the TRS, as a senior security for the life of that instrument.
The Company may, however, accord different treatment to the TRS in the future
in accordance with any applicable new rules or interpretations adopted by the
staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC.
Further, for purposes of Section 55(a)
under the 1940 Act, the Company treats each loan underlying the TRS as a
qualifying asset if the obligor on such loan is an eligible portfolio company
and as a non-qualifying asset if the obligor is not an eligible portfolio
company. The Company may, however, accord different treatment to the TRS in the
future in accordance with any applicable new rules or interpretations adopted
by the staff of the SEC.

(a)
|
All of the underlying loans subject to the TRS are issued by
eligible U.S. portfolio companies, as defined in the 1940 Act, except for
investments specifically identified as non-qualifying per note (e) below. The
Company does not control and is not an affiliate of any of the companies that
are issuers of the underlying loans subject to the TRS.
|
(b)
|
The 1, 2, 3, and 6 month LIBOR rates were 0.19%, 0.23%, 0.28%
and 0.44%, respectively, as of June 30, 2015. The prime rate was 3.25% as of
June 30, 2015. The actual LIBOR rate for each loan listed may not be the applicable
LIBOR rate as of June 30, 2015, as the loan may have been priced or repriced
based on a LIBOR rate prior to or subsequent to June 30, 2015.
|
(c)
|
Fair value determined by the Company’s board of directors (see
Note 9).
|
(d)
|
Position or portion thereof unsettled as of June 30, 2015.

(e)
|
All or a portion of the investment is not a qualifying asset
under the 1940 Act. A business development company may not acquire any asset
other than qualifying assets, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying
assets represent at least 70% of that company’s total assets as defined under
Section 55 of the 1940 Act. As of June 30, 2015, 86.1% of the Company’s total
assets represented qualifying assets. In addition, as described in this Note
7, the Company calculates its compliance with the qualifying asset test on a
“look through” basis by treating each loan underlying the TRS as either a
qualifying asset or non-qualifying asset based on whether the obligor is an
eligible portfolio company. On this basis, 83.6% of the Company’s total
assets represented qualifying assets as of June 30, 2015.

(a)
|
All of the underlying loans subject to the TRS are issued by
eligible U.S. portfolio companies, as defined in the 1940 Act, except for
investments specifically identified as non-qualifying per note (e) below. The
Company does not control and is not an affiliate of any of the companies that
are issuers of the underlying loans subject to the TRS.
|
(b)
|
The 1, 3, and 6 month LIBOR rates were 0.17%, 0.26%, and 0.36%,
respectively, as of December 31, 2014. The prime rate was 3.25% as of
December 31, 2014. The actual LIBOR rate for each loan listed may not be the
applicable LIBOR rate as of December 31, 2014, as the loan may have been
priced or repriced based on a LIBOR rate prior to or subsequent to December
31, 2014.
|
(c)
|
Fair value determined by the Company’s board of directors (see
Note 9).
|
(d)
|
Position or portion thereof unsettled as of December 31, 2014.
|
(e)
|
All or a portion of the investment is not a qualifying asset
under the 1940 Act. A business development company may not acquire any asset
other than qualifying assets, unless, at the time the acquisition is made,
qualifying assets represent at least 70% of that company’s total assets as
defined under Section 55 of the 1940 Act. As of December 31, 2014, 89.3% of
the Company’s total assets represented qualifying assets. In addition, as
described in this Note 7, the Company calculates its compliance with the
qualifying asset test on a “look through” basis by treating each loan
underlying the TRS as either a qualifying asset or non-qualifying asset based
on whether the obligor is an eligible portfolio company. On this basis, 86.8%
of the Company’s total assets represented qualifying assets as of December
31, 2014.

Note 8. Credit Facility
East West Bank Credit Facility
On April 30,
2015, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility, or the EWB
Credit Facility, with East West Bank, or EWB. The EWB Credit Facility provides
for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40,000, subject to certain
conditions, and the Company is required to maintain $2,000 in a demand deposit
account with EWB at all times. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in
compliance with all covenants and reporting requirements under the EWB Credit
Facility.
Advances
under the EWB Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate equal to (i) the
greater of 3.25% per year or the variable rate of interest per year announced
by EWB as its prime rate, plus (ii) a spread of 0.75%. Interest is payable
quarterly in arrears. Each advance under the EWB Credit Facility will be due
and payable on the earlier of 90 days from the date such advance was made by
EWB, or April 29, 2016. The Company may prepay any advance without penalty or
premium. The Company will be subject to a non-usage fee of 0.50% per year on
the average amount, if any, of the aggregate principal amount available under
the EWB Credit Facility that has not been borrowed, payable at the end of
each quarter. The non-usage fee, if any, is payable quarterly in arrears. The
Company’s obligations to EWB under the EWB Credit Facility are secured by a
first priority security interest in certain eligible loans in which the Company
has a beneficial interest, as updated from time to time.

The significant unobservable inputs used in
the fair value measurement of the Company`s senior secured first lien debt,
senior secured second lien debt, collateralized securities and structured
products, and total return swap are discount rates. A significant increase or
decrease in discount rates would result in a significantly lower or high fair
value measurement, respectively.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company entered into certain contracts
with other parties that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Company’s
maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Company has
not experienced claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and believes the
risk of loss related to such indemnifications to be remote.
As of
June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s unfunded commitments were as
follows:

Unless otherwise noted, the funding criteria for these unfunded

See Note 6 for a further description of the Company’s investment
in CCSLF.
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
As of August 10, 2015, the Company's unfunded commitments were
to portfolio companies ECI Acquisition Holdings, Inc., Studio Movie Grill
Holdings, LLC, and ABG Intermediate Holdings, LLC in the amount of $1,207,
$2,481, and $933, respectively, and included a $40,000 unfunded commitment to
CCSLF.
|
(4)
|
As of December 31, 2014, such commitment was subject to the
execution of a definitive loan agreement and the consummation of the
underlying corporate transaction, and conditional upon receipt of all
necessary shareholder, regulatory and other applicable approvals. Prior to
June 30, 2015, the Dollar Tree, Inc. unfunded commitment was terminated.
|
Unfunded commitments to provide
funds to companies are not recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance
sheets. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded
commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future
earning assets for the Company. The Company intends to use cash on hand,
short-term investments and other liquid assets to fund these commitments should
the need arise. For information on the companies to which the Company
is committed to fund additional amounts as of June 30, 2015 and December 31,
2014, refer to the table above and the consolidated schedule of investments.
The Staff of the Division of
Investment Management has recently informed the Company that it views unfunded
commitments as senior securities under the 1940 Act. The Company is
reviewing the Staff’s position and its impact on the Company’s
operations and business objectives and will continue to engage the Staff
in discussions as to the appropriate treatment of unfunded commitments.
During the course of this review, analysis and discussions, the
Company intends to comply with the Staff’s position by including unfunded
commitments as a senior security in the asset coverage test or by segregating
or setting aside liquid assets or engaging in other SEC or Staff-approved
measures to “cover” unfunded commitments in an amount required to comply with
the 1940 Act.
The Company does not include
its unfunded capital commitment to CCSLF as a senior security for the asset
coverage ratio, as the capital commitments cannot be drawn without an
affirmative vote by one of the Company's representatives on CCSLF's board of
managers.
Note 12. Fee Income

|
The per share data for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and
2014 was derived by using the weighted average shares of common stock
outstanding during each period.
|
(2)
|
Net investment income per share includes expense recoupments to
IIG of $0.04 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015. For the six
months ended June 30, 2014, net investment loss per share includes expense
reimbursements from IIG of $0.04 per share and expense recoupments to IIG of
$0.02 per share.
|
(3)
|
The amount shown for net realized gain and net change in
unrealized appreciation on investments is the balancing figure derived from
the other figures in the schedule. The amount shown at this caption for a
share outstanding throughout the period may not agree with the change in the
aggregate gains and losses in portfolio securities for the period because of
the timing of sales and repurchases of the Company’s shares in relation to
fluctuating market values for the portfolio. As a result, net increase in net
assets resulting from operations in this schedule may vary from the
consolidated statements of operations.
|
(4)
|
Distributions in excess of net investment income represent
certain expenses, which are not deductable on a tax-basis. Unearned capital
gains incentive fees and certain offering expenses reduce GAAP basis net
investment income, but do not reduce tax basis net investment income. These
tax-related adjustments represent additional net investment income available
for distribution for tax purposes.

The continuous issuance of shares of common stock may cause an
incremental increase in net asset value per share due to the sale of shares
at the then prevailing public offering price and the receipt of net proceeds
per share by the Company in excess of net asset value per share on each
subscription closing date.

Total investment return-net asset value is a measure of the
change in total value for shareholders who held the Company’s common stock at
the beginning and end of the period, including distributions paid or payable
during the period. Total investment return-net asset value is based on (i)
the beginning period net asset value per share on the first day of the
period, (ii) the net asset value per share on the last day of the period of
(A) one share plus (B) any fractional shares issued in connection with the
reinvestment of monthly distributions, and (iii) the value of distributions
payable, if any, on the last day of the period. The total investment
return-net asset value calculation assumes that (i) monthly cash
distributions are reinvested in accordance with the Company's second amended
and restated distribution reinvestment plan and (ii) the fractional shares
issued pursuant to the second amended and restated distribution reinvestment
plan are issued at 90% of the then public offering price on the date of
purchase. The total investment return-net asset value does not consider the
effect of the sales load from the sale of the Company’s common stock. The
total investment return-net asset value includes the effect of the issuance
of shares at a net offering price that is greater than net asset value per
share, which causes an increase in net asset value per share. Total returns
covering less than a full period are not annualized.
|
(7)
|
Excluding the expense reimbursements from IIG and the recoupment
of expense reimbursements to IIG during the period, the ratio of net
investment income (loss) to average net assets would have been 1.48% and (0.28%)
for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
|
(8)
|
The ratio of gross expense recoupment to IIG to average net
assets for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 0.40% and 0.26%,
respectively.
|
(9)
|
In order to record an obligation to reimburse IIG for expense
support provided, the ratio of gross operating expenses to average net
assets, when considering the reimbursement, in the period in which
reimbursement is sought cannot exceeded the ratio of gross operating expenses
to average net assets for the period when the expense support was provided.
For purposes of this calculation, gross operating expenses include all
expenses borne by the Company, except for offering and organizational costs,
base management fees, incentive fees, administrative services expenses, other
general and administrative expenses owed to CIM and its affiliates and
interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the ratios
of gross operating expenses to average net assets, when considering
recoupment of expense reimbursements, were 0.39% and 0.65%, respectively.
|
(10)
|
Portfolio turnover rate is calculated using the lesser of
year-to-date sales or purchases over the average of the invested assets at
fair value, excluding short term investments, and is not annualized.
|
(11)
|
Asset coverage ratio is equal to (i) the sum of (a) net assets
at the end of the period and (b) total senior securities outstanding at the
end of the period (excluding unfunded commitments), divided by (ii) total
senior securities outstanding at the end of the period. For purposes of the
asset coverage ratio test applicable to the Company as a BDC, the Company
treats the outstanding TRS notional amount at the end of the period, less the
total amount of cash collateral posted by Flatiron under the TRS, as well as
unfunded commitments (as of June 30, 2015 only), as senior securities. The
Company does not include its unfunded capital commitment to CCSLF as a senior
security for the asset coverage ratio, as the capital commitments cannot be
drawn without an affirmative vote by one of the Company's representatives on
CCSLF's board of managers.

Overview
We were incorporated under the general corporation laws
of the State of Maryland on August 9, 2011 and commenced operations on December
17, 2012 upon raising proceeds of $2,500 from persons not affiliated with us,
CIM or Apollo. We are an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end
management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under
the 1940 Act. We elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a
RIC, as defined under Subchapter M of the Code.
Our investment objective is to generate current income
and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation for investors. Our portfolio is
comprised primarily of investments in
senior secured debt, including first lien loans, second lien loans and
unitranche loans, and, to a lesser extent, collateralized securities,
structured products and other similar securities and unsecured debt, including corporate bonds and long-term subordinated
loans, referred to as mezzanine loans, of private and thinly traded U.S.
middle-market companies. In connection with our debt investments, we may
receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional
consideration. We may also purchase minority interests in the form of common or
preferred equity in our target companies, either in conjunction with one of our
debt investments or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor.
We are managed by CIM, our affiliate and a registered
investment adviser. CIM oversees the management of our activities and is
responsible for making investment decisions for our portfolio. We and CIM have
engaged AIM to act as our investment sub-adviser. On October 31, 2014, our
board of directors, including a majority of directors who are not interested
persons, approved the renewal of the investment advisory agreement with CIM and
the investment sub-advisory agreement with AIM, each for a period of twelve
months commencing December 17, 2014.
We seek to meet our investment objective by utilizing
the experienced management teams of both CIM and AIM, which includes their
access to the relationships and human capital of Apollo, IIG and ICON Capital,
in sourcing, evaluating and structuring transactions. We focus primarily on the
senior secured debt of private and thinly-traded U.S. middle-market companies,
which we define as companies that generally possess annual EBITDA of $50
million or less, with experienced management teams, significant free cash flow,
strong competitive positions and potential for growth.
Revenue
We primarily generate revenue in the form of interest
income on the debt securities that we hold and capital gains on debt or other
equity interests that we acquire in portfolio companies. The majority of our
senior debt investments bear interest at a floating rate. Interest on debt
securities is generally payable quarterly or semiannually. In some cases, some
of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or PIK interest.
The principal amount of the debt securities and any accrued, but unpaid,
interest generally will become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may
generate revenue in the form of commitment, structuring or diligence fees,
monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and possibly
consulting fees and performance-based fees. Any such fees generated in
connection with our investments are recognized when earned.
Operating Expenses
Our primary operating expenses are the
payment of advisory fees and other expenses under the investment advisory and
administration agreements. Our investment advisory fee compensates CIM for its
work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, executing, monitoring and
servicing our investments. CIM is responsible for compensating AIM for its
services pursuant to the investment sub-advisory agreement. We bear all other
expenses of our operations and transactions, including, without limitation:
·
corporate expenses relating to
borrowings and costs associated with the offering of our common stock, subject
to limitations included in the administration agreement;
·
the costs of calculating our net
asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;
·
investment advisory fees;
·
fees payable to third parties
relating to, or associated with, making, monitoring and disposing of investments
and valuing investments and enforcing our contractual rights, including fees
and expenses associated with performing due diligence reviews of prospective
investments;
·
transfer agent and custodial fees;
·
fees and expenses associated with
our marketing efforts;
·
interest payable on debt, if any,
incurred to finance our investments;
·
federal and state registration
fees;
·
federal, state and local taxes;
·
independent directors’ fees and
expenses;
·
costs of proxy statements, tender
offer materials, shareholders’ reports and notices;
·
fidelity bond, directors and
officers/errors and omissions liability insurance and other insurance premiums;
·
direct costs such as printing,
mailing, long distance telephone and staff;
·
fees and expenses associated with
independent audits and outside legal costs, including compliance with the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended;
·
costs associated with our reporting
and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and applicable federal and state
securities laws;
·
brokerage commissions for our investments;
and
·
all other expenses incurred by CIM,
AIM or us in connection with administering our business, including expenses
incurred by CIM or AIM in performing its obligations, and the reimbursement of
the compensation of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer
and their respective staffs paid by CIM, to the extent that they are not a
person with a controlling interest in CIM or any of its affiliates, in each
case subject to the limitations included in the investment advisory and
administration agreements, as applicable.

(1)
|
Amortized cost
represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of premiums and/or
accretion of discounts, as applicable, on our investments.
|
(2)
|
Short term
investments represent an investment in a fund that invests in highly liquid investments
with average original maturity dates of three months or less.
|
(3)
|
The sum of investment portfolio and TRS portfolio companies does
not equal the total number of portfolio companies. This is due to 17
portfolio companies being in both the investment and TRS portfolios.
|
(4)
|
The portfolio
yield does not represent an actual investment return to shareholders.
|
(5)
|
The portfolio yield for underlying TRS loans is determined
without giving consideration to leverage.
|
The
following table summarizes the composition of our investment portfolio and our
underlying TRS loans portfolio by the type of interest rate as of June 30, 2015
and December 31, 2014, excluding short term investments of $20 and $10,350,

Except for CCSLF, the Company does not
“control” and is not an “affiliate” of any of its portfolio companies, each as
defined in the 1940 Act. In general, under the 1940 Act, we would be presumed
to “control” a portfolio company or issuer if we owned 25% or more of its
voting securities and would be an “affiliate” of a portfolio company or issuer
if we owned 5% or more of its voting securities.
Our
investment portfolio may contain senior secured investments that are in the
form of lines of credit, revolving credit facilities, or unfunded commitments,
which may require us to provide funding when requested in accordance with the
terms of the underlying agreements. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014,
our unfunded commitments amounted to $45,327 and $23,112, respectively. As of
August 10, 2015, our unfunded commitments amounted to $44,621. Since these
commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for us.
Refer to section “Commitments and Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements” for further details on our unfunded commitments.
Investment Portfolio
Asset Quality
CIM uses an investment rating system to characterize
and monitor our expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio.
These ratings are just one of several factors that CIM uses to monitor our
portfolio, are not in and of themselves determinative of fair value or revenue
recognition and are presented for indicative purposes. CIM grades the credit
risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 5 no less frequently than quarterly.
This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio
investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio
investment (i.e., at the time of acquisition), although it may also take into
account under certain circumstances the performance of the portfolio company’s
business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors.
The following is a description of the conditions
associated with each investment rating used in this ratings system:
Investment Grade
|
Description
|
1
|
Indicates
the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The trends and risk
factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally
favorable, which may include the performance of the portfolio company or a
potential exit.
|
2
|
Indicates
a level of risk to our initial cost basis that is similar to the risk to our
initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. This portfolio
company is generally performing in accordance with our analysis of its
business and the full return of principal and interest or dividend is
expected.
|
3
|
Indicates
that the risk to our ability to recoup the cost of such investment has
increased since origination or acquisition, but full return of principal and
interest or dividend is expected. A portfolio company with an investment
grade of 3 requires closer monitoring.
|
4
|
Indicates
that the risk to our ability to recoup the cost of such investment has
increased significantly since origination or acquisition, including as a
result of factors such as declining performance and noncompliance with debt
covenants, and we expect some loss of interest, dividend or capital
appreciation, but still expect an overall positive internal rate of return on
the investment.
|
5
|
Indicates
that the risk to our ability to recoup the cost of such investment has
increased materially since origination or acquisition and the portfolio
company likely has materially declining performance. Loss of interest or
dividend and some loss of principal investment is expected, which would
result in an overall negative internal rate of return on the investment.
|
For investments graded 3, 4, or 5, CIM
enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company.
The following table summarizes the composition of our investment
portfolio and our underlying TRS loans portfolio based on the 1 to 5 investment
rating scale at fair value as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, excluding
short term investments of $20 and $10,350, respectively:

The amount of the investment portfolio and
underlying TRS loans in each grading category may vary substantially from
period to period resulting primarily from changes in the composition of each
portfolio as a result of new investment, repayment and exit activities. In
addition, changes in the grade of investments may be made to reflect our
expectation of performance and changes in investment values.
Current Investment Portfolio
As of August 10, 2015, our investment
portfolio, excluding our short term investments and TRS, consisted of interests
in 81 portfolio companies (17% in senior secured first lien debt, 66% in senior
secured second lien debt, 13% in collateralized securities and structured products
(comprised of 3% invested in rated debt, 5% invested in non-rated debt and 5%
invested in non-rated equity of such securities and products) and 4% in unsecured
debt with a total fair value of $604,787 with an average and median portfolio
company annual EBITDA of $78.0 million and $60.1 million, respectively, at
initial investment. As of August 10, 2015, investments in our portfolio,
excluding our short term investments and TRS, were purchased at a weighted
average price of 97.08% of par value. Our estimated gross annual portfolio
yield was 9.39% based upon the purchase price of such investments. The
estimated gross portfolio yield does not represent and may be higher than an
actual investment return to shareholders because it excludes our expenses and
all sales commissions and dealer manager fees. For the six months ended June
30, 2015, our total investment return-net asset value was 5.11%. Total
investment return-net asset value does not represent and may be higher than an
actual investment return to shareholders because it excludes all sales
commissions and dealer manager fees. Total investment return-net asset value is
a measure of the change in total value for shareholders who held our common
stock at the beginning and end of the period, including distributions paid or
payable during the period, and is described further in Note 13 of our
consolidated financial statements.
As of August 10, 2015, our short term
investments included an investment in a U.S. Treasury Obligations Fund of
$9,772.
Further, as of August 10, 2015,
through a TRS (described further in Note 7 of our consolidated financial
statements), we obtained the economic benefit of owning investments in first
lien senior secured and second lien senior secured floating-rate loans of 88
portfolio companies.

Investment Income
For the three months
ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, we generated investment income of $11,918 and
$3,634, respectively, consisting primarily of interest income on investments in
senior secured loans, collateralized securities and structured products of 78
and 52 portfolio companies held during each respective period. During the three
months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, our investment portfolio, excluding short
term investments and the TRS, increased $152,253 and $66,384, respectively, as
we continued to deploy the net proceeds from our continuous offering. We expect
our investment portfolio to continue to grow due to the anticipated increase in
equity available to us for investment from our continuous offering. As a
result, we believe that reported investment income for the three months ended
June 30, 2015 and 2014 is not representative of our stabilized or future
performance. Interest income earned by loans underlying the TRS is not included
in investment income in the consolidated statements of operations, but rather
it is recorded as part of net realized gain on total return swap.

Expense Reimbursements
Our affiliate, IIG, agreed to reimburse us
commencing with the quarter ended December 31, 2012 for certain expenses
pursuant to the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement. Refer
to the discussion under “Related Party Transactions” below for further details
about the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement. Also, see
Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosure
regarding the expense reimbursements from IIG.
For the three months ended June 30, 2015,
IIG recouped $1,592 of expense reimbursements made during the three months
ended June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013 in connection with the expense
support and conditional reimbursement agreement. For the three months ended
June 30, 2014, IIG recouped $600 of expense reimbursements made during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and
March 31, 2013. We did not receive any expense reimbursements from IIG
for the three months ended June 30, 2015 or 2014.
Reimbursement of such costs will be
determined as appropriate to meet the objectives of the expense support and
conditional reimbursement agreement. As a result, we may or may not be
requested to reimburse any further costs by IIG.
The table below
presents a summary of all expenses supported by IIG and the associated dates
through which such expenses are eligible for reimbursement by us for the
following three month periods.

Annualized Distribution Rate equals the annualized rate of distributions
paid to shareholders based on the amount of the regular cash distributions
paid immediately prior to the date the expense support payment obligation was
incurred by IIG. Annualized Distribution Rate does not include special cash
or stock distributions paid to shareholders.
|
Net Investment Income
Our net investment income totaled $4,506
and $64 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The
increase in net investment income was primarily due to an increase in the size
of our investment portfolio relative to our expenses as we continued to achieve
economies of scale.
Net Realized Gain on Investments
Our net realized gain on investments
totaled $0 and $210 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014,
respectively. The decrease in net realized gain on investments was primarily
due to realized losses on the sale of certain investments and an overall
decrease in sales activity during the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared
to the three months ended June 30, 2014. During the three months ended June 30,
2015, we received sale proceeds and principal repayments of $20,236 and $2,392,
respectively, compared to sale proceeds of $27,065 and principal repayments of
$254 for the three months ended June 30, 2014.
Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation on
Investments
The net change in unrealized appreciation
on our investments totaled $967 and $603 for the three months ended June 30,
2015 and 2014, respectively. This change was predominantly driven by primary and
secondary investments made available to us at advantageous purchase prices.
Net Realized Gain on TRS
Our net realized gain on the TRS totaled $8,515
and $4,800 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The
components of net realized gain on the TRS are summarized below for the three
months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Net Change in Unrealized Depreciation on
TRS
The net change in unrealized depreciation
on the TRS totaled ($3,250) and ($1,185) for the three months ended June 30,
2015 and 2014, respectively. This change was predominately driven by a widening of credit spreads during the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the three months
ended June 30, 2014.
Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from
Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2015
and 2014, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of
$10,738 and $4,492, respectively.
Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and

Investment Income
For the six months ended
June 30, 2015 and 2014, we generated investment income of $20,832 and 5,835 respectively,
consisting primarily of interest income on investments in senior secured loans,
collateralized securities and structured products of 78 and 61 portfolio
companies held during each respective period. During the six months ended June
30, 2015 and 2014, our investment portfolio, excluding short term investments and
the TRS, increased $233,341 and $115,757, respectively, as we continued to
deploy the net proceeds from our continuous offering. We expect our investment
portfolio to continue to grow due to the anticipated increase in equity
available to us for investment from our continuous offering. As a result, we
believe that reported investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2015
and 2014 is not representative of our stabilized or future performance.
Interest income earned by loans underlying the TRS is not included in
investment income in the consolidated statements of operations, but rather it
is recorded as part of net realized gain on total return swap.
Operating Expenses

Expense Reimbursements
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, IIG
recouped $2,429 of expense reimbursements made during the three months ended
March 31, 2013, June 30, 2013, and September 30, 2013 in connection with the
expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement. We did not receive any
expense reimbursements from IIG for the six months ended June 30, 2015. For the
six months ended June 30, 2014, we received expense reimbursements from IIG of
$1,049 and IIG recouped $600 of expense reimbursements made during the three months
ended December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013.
Refer to the section, “Results of
Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 - Expense
Reimbursements” above for further details on our expense reimbursements with
our affiliate, IIG.
Net Investment Income (Loss)
Our net investment income (loss) totaled
$6,637 and ($186) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The increase in net investment income was primarily due to an increase in the
size of our investment portfolio relative to our expenses as we continued to
achieve economies of scale.
Net Realized Gain on Investments
Our net realized gain on investments
totaled $575 and $384 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014,
respectively. The increase in net realized gain on investments was primarily
due to an increase in sales activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. During the six months ended
June 30, 2015, we received sale proceeds and principal repayments of $55,801
and $3,510, respectively, compared to sale proceeds of $40,230 and principal
repayments of $5,544 for the six months ended
June 30, 2014.
Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation on
Investments
The net change in unrealized appreciation
on our investments totaled $2,431 and $1,214 for the six months ended June 30,
2015 and 2014, respectively. This change was predominantly driven by primary and
secondary investments made available to us at advantageous purchase prices, as
well as a tightening of credit spreads during the six months ended June 30,
2015.
Net Realized Gain on TRS
Our net realized gain on the TRS totaled $15,122
and $7,764 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The
components of net realized gain on the TRS are summarized below for the six
months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation on
TRS
The net change in unrealized appreciation
on the TRS totaled $2,799 and $23 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and
2014, respectively. This change was predominantly driven by primary and
secondary investments made available to us at advantageous purchase prices, as
well as a tightening of credit spreads during the six months ended June 30,
2015.
Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations
For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and
2014, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of
$27,564 and $9,199, respectively.
Net Asset Value per Share, Annual Investment Return and Total
Return Since Inception
Our net asset value per share was $9.33 and
$9.22 on June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. After considering
(i) the overall changes in net asset value per share, (ii) paid distributions
of approximately $0.3658 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2015,
and (iii) the assumed reinvestment of those distributions at 90% of the
prevailing offering price per share, the total investment return was 5.11% for
the entire six-month period ended June 30, 2015. Total investment return-net
asset value does not represent and may be higher than an actual return to
shareholders because it excludes all sales commissions and dealer manager fees.
Total investment return-net asset value is a measure of the change in total
value for shareholders who held our common stock at the beginning and end of
the period, including distributions paid or payable during the period, and is
described further in Note 13 of our consolidated financial statements.
Initial shareholders who subscribed to the
offering in December 2012 with an initial investment of $10,000 and an initial
purchase price equal to $9.00 per share (public offering price net of sales
load) have seen an annualized return of 9.34% and a cumulative total return of
25.42% through June 30, 2015 (see chart below). Initial shareholders who
subscribed to the offering in December 2012 with an initial investment of
$10,000 and an initial purchase price equal to $10.00 per share (the initial
public offering price including sales load) have seen an annualized return of
4.89% and a cumulative total return of 12.88% through June 30, 2015. Over the
same time period the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index, a primary measure of
senior debt covering the U.S. leveraged loan market, which currently consists of
approximately 1,000 credit facilities throughout numerous industries, and the
BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Index, a primary measure of short-term US
dollar denominated below investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the
US domestic market, registered cumulative total returns of approximately 10.86%
and 13.04%, respectively, during the period from December 17, 2012 to June 30,
2015. In addition, the annualized return for the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan
Index and the BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Index was 4.15% and 4.95%,
respectively, during the period from December 17, 2012 to June 30, 2015.
The calculations for the Growth of $10,000
Initial Investment are based upon (i) an initial investment of $10,000 in our common
stock at the beginning of the period, at a share price of $10.00 per share
(including sales load) and $9.00 per share (excluding sales load), (ii) assumes
reinvestment of monthly distributions in accordance with our second amended and
restated distribution reinvestment plan, (iii) the sale of the entire
investment position at the net asset value per share on the last day of the
period, and (iv) the distributions declared and payable to shareholders, if
any, on the last day of the period.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We generate cash primarily from the net
proceeds of our continuous public offering and from cash flows from fees,
interest and dividends earned from our investments as well as principal
repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. We are engaged in a
continuous offering of shares of our common stock. We accept subscriptions on a
continuous basis and issue shares at weekly closings at prices that, after
deducting selling commissions and dealer manager fees, are at or above our net
asset value per share.
We will sell our shares on a continuous
basis at our latest public offering price of $10.45 per share; however, to the
extent that our net asset value increases, we will sell at a price necessary to
ensure that shares are not sold at a price, after deduction of selling
commissions and dealer manager fees, that is below net asset value. In the
event of a material decline in our net asset value per share, which we consider
to be a 2.5% decrease below our current net offering price, we will reduce our
offering price in order to establish a new net offering price that is not more
than 2.5% above our net asset value per share. Therefore, persons who tender
subscriptions for shares of our common stock in the offering must submit
subscriptions for a certain dollar amount, rather than a number of shares of
common stock and, as a result, may receive fractional shares of our common
stock. In connection with each weekly closing on the sale of shares of our
common stock, our board of directors has delegated to one or more of its
directors the authority to conduct such closings so long as there is no change
to our public offering price or to establish a new net offering price that is
not more than 2.5% above our net asset value per share. In connection with each
weekly closing, we will, in each case if necessary, update the information
contained in our prospectus by filing a prospectus supplement with the SEC, and
we will also post any updated information to our website.
As of June 30, 2015, we sold 78,325,613
shares for net proceeds of $803,582 at an average price per share of $10.26.
The net proceeds received include reinvested shareholder distributions of
$25,392, for which we issued 2,699,360 shares of common stock, and gross
proceeds paid for shares of common stock tendered for repurchase of $1,343, for
which we repurchased 142,775 shares of common stock. Since commencing our continuous
public offering on July 2, 2012 and through June 30, 2015, sales commissions
and dealer manager fees related to the sale of our common stock were $46,822
and $22,824, respectively.
As of August 12, 2015, we sold 84,531,513
shares of common stock for net proceeds of $867,590 at an average price per
share of $10.26. The net proceeds received include reinvested shareholder
distributions of $30,543, for which we issued 3,247,037 shares of common stock,
and gross proceeds paid for shares of common stock tendered for repurchase of
$5,571, for which we repurchased 592,313 shares of common stock. Since commencing our continuous
public offering on July 2, 2012 and through August 12, 2015, sales commissions
and dealer manager fees related to the sale of our common stock were $50,598 and
$24,689, respectively.
The net proceeds from our continuous
offering will be invested primarily in cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government
securities, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt instruments maturing in
one year or less prior to being invested in debt securities of private U.S.
companies.
As of June 30, 2015
and December 31, 2014, we had $20 and $10,350 in short term investments,
respectively, invested in a fund that primarily invests in U.S. government
securities.
On April 28, 2015, we filed a registration
statement on Form N-2 to sell up to 100,000,000 additional shares of our common
stock at an initial public offering price of $10.45 per share.
Total Return Swap
For a detailed
discussion of our TRS, refer to Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements
included in this report.
East West Bank Credit Facility
On April 30, 2015, we
entered into the EWB Credit Facility with EWB. The EWB Credit Facility provides
for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40,000, subject to certain
conditions. As of June 30, 2015, our outstanding borrowings under the EWB
Credit Facility were $22,000 and the aggregate principal amount available in
connection with the EWB Credit Facility was $18,000. As of August 10, 2015, $0
was drawn on the EWB Credit Facility.
For a detailed
discussion of our EWB Credit Facility, refer to Note 8 to our consolidated
financial statements included in this report.
CĪON / Capitala Senior Loan Fund I,
LLC
On June 24, 2015, we entered into a joint
venture with Capitala to create CCSLF. We have committed to provide an
aggregate of up to $40,000 of equity to CCSLF. As of August 10, 2015, our
unfunded commitment to CCSLF was $40,000.
For a detailed
discussion of CCSLF, refer to Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements
included in this report.
RIC Status and Distributions
Our total
investment portfolio includes loans and other securities on our consolidated
balance sheets and loans underlying the TRS. Accordingly, we treat net interest
and other income earned on all investments, including the loans underlying the
TRS, as a component of investment company taxable income when determining our
sources of distributions. The following table reflects the sources of our
distributions on a tax basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015:

For the three months ended June 30, 2015, tax basis net
investment income does not include the reversal of unearned capital gains
incentive fees of $243 or offering expenses of $445, which reduce GAAP basis
net investment income available for distributions. For the six months ended
June 30, 2015, tax basis net investment income does not include unearned
capital gains incentive fees of $1,211 or offering expenses of $445, which
reduce GAAP basis net investment income available for distributions. These
tax-related adjustments represent additional net investment income available
for distribution to shareholders.
|

|
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, we had no
capital gains classified as long-term. The final determination of the tax
attributes of our distributions is made annually as of the end of our fiscal
year.

For an additional discussion of our RIC
status and distributions, refer to Note 2 and Note 5, respectively, to our
consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standard Board
issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation
Analysis, or ASU 2015-02, which amends the criteria for determining which
entities are considered variable interest entities, or VIEs, amends the
criteria for determining if a service provider possesses a variable interest in
a VIE and ends the deferral granted to investment companies for application of
the VIE consolidation model. This guidance is effective for annual and interim
reporting periods of public entities beginning after December 15, 2015 and
early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU 2015-02
will have on our consolidated financial statements and/or disclosures.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying
the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, or ASU 2015-03, which requires
that loan costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the
balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt
liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. This new guidance is
effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual
periods, beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. ASU
2015-03 is to be applied retrospectively for each period presented. Upon
adoption, an entity is required to comply with the applicable disclosures for a
change in an accounting principle. We are currently evaluating the impact ASU
2015-03 will have on our consolidated financial statements and/or disclosures.
In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain
Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), or ASU 2015-07, which
removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all
investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per
share practical expedient. This new guidance is effective for annual reporting
periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after
December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-07 is to be
applied retrospectively for each period presented. We are
currently evaluating the impact ASU 2015-07 will have on our consolidated
financial statements and/or disclosures.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are
prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date
of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting policies are
those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective
or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the
effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in
subsequent periods. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, we also
utilize available information, including our past history, industry standards
and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming our
estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual
results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may
utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results
of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
The value of our assets is
determined quarterly and at such other times that an event occurs that
materially affects the valuation. The valuation is made pursuant to Section
2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act, which requires that we value our assets as follows:
(i) the market price for those securities for which a market quotation is
readily available, and (ii) for all other securities and assets, at fair value,
as determined in good faith by our board of directors. As a BDC, Section
2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act requires the board of directors to determine in good
faith the fair value of portfolio securities for which a market price is not
readily available, and it does so in conjunction with the application of our
valuation procedures by CIM.
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 asset while employing a valuation process that is consistently followed.
Determinations of fair value involve subjective judgments and estimates.
Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the
uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any
change in such valuations in our consolidated financial statements.
Valuation
Methods
With respect to investments for which market quotations
are not readily available, we undertake a multi-step valuation process each
quarter, as described below:
·
our quarterly valuation process
begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by
certain of CIM’s investment professionals and certain members of its management
team, with such valuation taking into account information received from various
sources, including independent valuation firms and AIM, if applicable;
·
preliminary valuation conclusions
are then documented and discussed with CIM’s valuation committee.
·
CIM’s valuation committee reviews
the preliminary valuation, and, if applicable, delivers such preliminary
valuation to an independent valuation firm for its review;
·
CIM’s valuation committee, or its
designee, and, if appropriate, the relevant investment professionals meet with
the independent valuation firm to discuss the preliminary valuation;
·
designated members of CIM’s
management team respond and supplement the preliminary valuation to reflect any
comments provided by the independent valuation firm;
·
our audit committee meets with
members of CIM’s management team and the independent valuation firm to discuss
the assistance provided and the results of the independent valuation firm’s
review; and
·
our board of directors discusses
the valuation and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio
in good faith based on various statistical and other factors, including the
input and recommendation of CIM, the audit committee and any third-party
valuation firm, if applicable.
In addition to the foregoing, certain investments for
which a market price is not readily available are evaluated on a quarterly
basis by an independent valuation firm and certain other investments are on a
rotational basis reviewed once over a twelve-month period by an independent
valuation firm. Finally, certain investments are not evaluated by an independent
valuation firm unless the net asset value and other aspects of such investments
in the aggregate exceed certain thresholds.
Given the expected types of investments, excluding
short term investments that are classified as Level 1, management expects our
portfolio holdings to be classified in Level 2 or Level 3. Due to the
uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, particularly for Level 2 and
Level 3 investments, such fair value estimates may differ significantly from
the values that would have been used had an active market for the investments
existed. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that
may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses that
we ultimately realize on these investments to materially differ from the
valuations currently assigned. Inputs used in the valuation process are subject
to variability in the future and can result in materially different fair
values.
For an additional discussion of our investment
valuation process, refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements
included in this report.

Contractual Obligations
On December 17, 2012, Flatiron entered into
a TRS with Citibank. Flatiron and Citibank have amended the TRS on numerous
occasions including the most recent eighth amendment on March 4, 2015. See Note
7 to our consolidated financial statements for a more detailed description of
the TRS.
On April 30, 2015, we entered into the EWB
Credit Facility with EWB. See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital
Resources – East West Bank Credit Facility” above for a more detailed
description of the EWB Credit Facility.
Commitments
and Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Commitments and Contingencies
We have entered into certain contracts with
other parties that contain a variety of indemnifications. Our maximum exposure
under these arrangements is unknown. However, we have not experienced claims or
losses pursuant to these contracts and believe the risk of loss related to such
indemnifications to be remote.
Our
investment portfolio may contain debt investments that are in the form of lines
of credit, revolving credit facilities, or other unfunded commitments, which may
require us to provide funding when requested in accordance with the terms of
the underlying agreement. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our
unfunded commitments were as follows:

As of August 10, 2015, our unfunded commitments were to
portfolio companies ECI Acquisition Holdings, Inc., Studio Movie Grill
Holdings, LLC, and ABG Intermediate Holdings, LLC in the amount of $1,207,
$2,481, and $933, respectively, and included a $40,000 unfunded commitment to
CCSLF.
|
(4)
|
As of December 31, 2014, such commitment was subject to the
execution of a definitive loan agreement and the consummation of the
underlying corporate transaction, and conditional upon receipt of all
necessary shareholder, regulatory and other applicable approvals. Prior to
June 30, 2015, the Dollar Tree, Inc. unfunded commitment was terminated.
|
Unfunded commitments to provide
funds to companies are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheets. Since
these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do
not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for
us. We believe we maintain sufficient liquidity in the form of cash on hand,
short-term investments and other liquid assets to fund these unfunded
commitments should the need arise. For
information on the companies to which we are committed to fund additional
amounts as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, refer to the table above and the consolidated
schedule of investments included in this report.
The Staff of the Division of
Investment Management has recently informed us that it views our unfunded
commitments as senior securities under the 1940 Act. We are reviewing the
Staff’s position and its impact on our operations and business
objectives and will continue to engage the Staff in discussions as to the
appropriate treatment of our unfunded commitments. During the course of
our review, analysis and discussions, we intend to comply with the
Staff’s position by including unfunded commitments as a senior security in the
asset coverage test or by segregating or setting aside liquid assets or engaging
in other SEC or Staff-approved measures to “cover” our unfunded commitments in
an amount required to comply with the 1940 Act.
We do not include our unfunded
capital commitment to CCSLF as a senior security for the asset coverage ratio,
as the capital commitments cannot be drawn without an affirmative vote by one
of our representatives on CCSLF's board of managers.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no
off-balance sheet arrangements except for those discussed in “Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources - Total Return Swap” and “Commitments
and Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements - Commitments and
Contingencies” above.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks,
including changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2015, 97.9% of our
portfolio investments and underlying loans subject to the TRS paid variable
interest rates. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected
to lead to higher interest rates applicable to our debt investments, especially
to the extent that we hold variable rate investments, and to declines in the
value of any fixed rate investments we may hold. To the extent that a majority
of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest
rates could make it easier for us to meet or exceed our incentive fee hurdle
rate, as defined in our investment advisory agreement, and may result in a
substantial increase in our net investment income, and also to the amount of
incentive fees payable to CIM with respect to our pre-incentive fee net
investment income.
Under the terms of the TRS with Citibank,
we pay fees to Citibank at a floating rate based on LIBOR (and some cases prime
rate) in exchange for the right to receive the economic benefit of a pool of
loans. Pursuant to the terms of the EWB Credit Facility, borrowings are at a
floating rate based the greater of 3.25% or the variable rate of interest per
year announced by EWB as its prime rate. In addition, in the future we may
seek to borrow funds in order to make additional investments. Our net
investment income will depend, in part, upon the difference between the rate at
which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest those funds. As a result,
we would be subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In
periods of rising interest rates when we have debt outstanding, our cost of
funds would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially
to the extent we hold fixed rate investments. We expect that our long-term
investments will be financed primarily with equity and long-term debt. Our
interest rate risk management techniques may include various interest rate
hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse
developments resulting from changes in interest rates could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The following table shows the effect over a
twelve month period of changes in interest rates on our net interest income,
excluding short term investments, assuming no changes in our investment
portfolio and TRS Agreement in effect as of June 30, 2015:

Pursuant to the TRS, we receive from Citibank all interest
payable in respect of the loans subject to the TRS and pay to Citibank
interest at a rate equal to the floating rate index specified for each loan
(typically LIBOR of varying maturities) plus 1.35% per year on the full
notional amount of the loans subject to the TRS. As of June 30, 2015, all of
the loans subject to the TRS paid variable interest rates. This table assumes
no change in defaults or prepayments by portfolio companies over the next
twelve months.
|
|
In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation
as discussed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in
this report.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the three
months ended June 30, 2015, we
carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of
our management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and our Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report
pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. Based on the foregoing evaluation, the Co-Chief Executive
Officers and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures were effective.
In designing and evaluating our
disclosure controls and procedures, we recognized that disclosure controls and
procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure
controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and
procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards.
Disclosure controls and procedures cannot detect or prevent all error and
fraud. Some inherent limitations in disclosure controls and procedures include
costs of implementation, faulty decision-making, simple error and mistake.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the
controls. The design of any system of controls is based, in part, upon certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
anticipated and unanticipated future conditions. Over time, controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with
established policies or procedures.
Evaluation of internal control over
financial reporting
There have been no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2015
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
We are not currently
subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any
material legal proceeding threatened against us. From time to time, we may be
party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business,
including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts
with our portfolio companies and other third parties. While the outcome of
these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that
any such proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition
or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no
material changes from the risk factors disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales
of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Our registration
statement on Form N-2, as amended, was declared effective by the SEC on July 2,
2012 (SEC File No. 333-178646). Our offering period commenced on July 2, 2012.
We did not engage in any unregistered sales of equity
securities during the three months ended June 30, 2015.
