Note 1. Principal Business and Organization

FS Investment Corporation (NYSE: FSIC), or the Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007 and formally commenced investment operations on January 2, 2009. 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 Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, the Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or RIC, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had two wholly-owned financing subsidiaries and five wholly-owned subsidiaries through which it holds interests in portfolio companies. The unaudited consolidated financial statements include both the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2018. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes.

The Company’s investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private U.S. companies. The Company seeks to generate superior risk-adjusted returns by focusing on debt investments in a broad array of private U.S. companies, including middle market companies, which the Company defines as companies with annual revenues of $50 million to $2.5 billion at the time of investment. The Company may purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the “over-the-counter” market or directly from the Company’s target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. In connection with the Company’s debt investments, the Company may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. The Company may also purchase or otherwise acquire interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in the Company’s target companies, generally in conjunction with one of the Company’s debt investments, including through the restructuring of such investments, or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of the Company’s portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, collateralized loan obligations, or CLOs, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. The Company’s investment adviser will seek to tailor the Company’s investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, the Company may increase or decrease its exposure to less senior portions of the capital structure or otherwise make opportunistic investments.

As the Company previously announced on April 9, 2018, GSO / Blackstone Debt Funds Management LLC, or GDFM, resigned as the investment sub-adviser to the Company and terminated the investment sub-advisory agreement, or the investment sub-advisory agreement, between FB Income Advisor, LLC, or FB Advisor, and GDFM, effective April 9, 2018. In connection with GDFM’s resignation as the investment sub-adviser to the Company, on April 9, 2018, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement, or the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement, with FS/KKR Advisor, LLC, or FS/KKR Advisor, a newly-formed investment adviser jointly operated by an affiliate of Franklin Square Holdings, L.P. (which does business as FS Investments) and by KKR Credit Advisors (US), LLC, or KKR Credit, pursuant to which FS/KKR Advisor acts as investment adviser to the Company. The FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement replaced the amended and restated investment advisory agreement, dated July 17, 2014, or the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement, by and between the Company and FB Advisor.

On July 22, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, with Corporate Capital Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, or CCT, IC Acquisition, Inc., a Maryland corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, or the Merger Sub, and FS/KKR Advisor. The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into CCT, with CCT continuing as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, or the Merger, and, immediately thereafter, CCT will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving company, or together with the Merger, the Transaction. See Note 11 for additional information.

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 accruals) 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 and for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. The December 31, 2017 consolidated balance sheet and consolidated schedule of investments are derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company is considered an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. The Company has evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Many of the amounts have been rounded, and all amounts are in thousands, except share and per share amounts.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement). This fee equals 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains, which equals the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, 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. The Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee, which, if earned, is paid annually. The Company accrues the incentive fee on capital gains based on net realized and unrealized gains; however, the fee payable to FS/KKR Advisor is based on realized gains and no such fee is payable with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. The terms of the incentive fee on capital gains were substantially similar under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement.

Subordinated Income Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement, FS/KKR Advisor may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income under the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, and equals 20.0% of the Company’s “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets, equal to 1.75% per quarter (1.875% under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement), or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.0% (7.5% under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement). As a result, FS/KKR Advisor will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.75% (1.875% under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement). Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, FS/KKR Advisor will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.1875%, or 8.75% annually (2.34375%, or 9.375% annually under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement), of the value of the Company’s net assets. Thereafter, FS/KKR Advisor will be entitled to receive 20.0% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income.

The subordinated incentive fee on income is subject to a cap equal to (i) 20.0% of the per share pre-incentive fee return for the then-current and eleven preceding calendar quarters minus the cumulative per share incentive fees accrued and/or payable for the eleven preceding calendar quarters multiplied by (ii) the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the calendar

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

quarter for which the subordinated incentive fee on income is being calculated. For the foregoing purpose, the “per share pre-incentive fee return” for any calendar quarter is equal to (i) the sum of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the calendar quarter, realized gains and losses for the calendar quarter and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of the Company’s investments for the calendar quarter and, for any calendar quarter ending prior to January 1, 2018, base management fees for the calendar quarter, divided by (ii) the weighted average number of shares outstanding during such calendar quarter. In addition, the “per share incentive fee” for any calendar quarter is equal to (i) the incentive fee accrued and/or payable for such calendar quarter divided by (ii) the weighted average number of shares outstanding during such calendar quarter.

Partial Loan Sales: The Company follows the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing, or ASC Topic 860, when accounting for loan participations and other partial loan sales. This guidance requires a participation or other partial loan sale to meet the definition of a participating interest, as defined in the guidance, in order for sale treatment to be allowed. Participations or other partial loan sales which do not meet the definition of a participating interest remain on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are recorded as a secured borrowing until the participation or other partial loan sale meets the definition. Secured borrowings are carried at fair value to correspond with the related investments, which are carried at fair value. See Note 8 for additional information.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 may have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used to prepare the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported.

Revenue Recognition: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The Company records interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that it expects to collect such amounts. The Company records dividend income on the ex-dividend date. The Company does not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if it has reason to doubt its ability to collect such income. The Company’s policy is to place investments on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that interest income will be collected. The Company considers many factors relevant to an investment when placing it on or removing it from non-accrual status including, but not limited to, the delinquency status of the investment, economic and business conditions, the overall financial condition of the underlying investment, the value of the underlying collateral, bankruptcy status, if any, and any other facts or circumstances relevant to the investment. If there is reasonable doubt that the Company will receive any previously accrued interest, then the interest income will be written-off. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the collectability of the remaining principal and interest. Non-accrual investments may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are likely to remain current based on the Company’s judgment.

Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and the Company amortizes such amounts as interest income over the respective term of the loan or security. Upon the prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as interest income. The Company records prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when it receives such amounts.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the cumulative effect method applied to in-scope contracts with customers that have not been completed as of the date of adoption. The Company did not identify any in-scope contracts that had not been completed as of the date of adoption and, as a result, the Company did not recognize a cumulative effect on stockholders’ equity in connection with the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance.

The new revenue recognition guidance applies to all entities and all contracts with customers to provide goods or services in the ordinary course of business, excluding, among other things, financial instruments as well as certain other contractual rights and obligations. Under the new revenue recognition guidance, which the Company has applied to all new in-scope contracts as of the date of adoption, structuring and other upfront fees are recognized as revenue based on the transaction price as the performance obligation is fulfilled. The related performance obligation consists of structuring activities and is satisfied over time

as such activities are performed. Consideration is variable and is constrained from being included in the transaction price until the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved, typically as of the trade date of the related transaction. Payment is typically due on the settlement date of the related transaction.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $2,555 in structuring fee revenue under the new revenue recognition guidance and included such revenue in the fee income line item on its consolidated statement of operations. Comparative periods are presented in accordance with revenue recognition guidance effective prior to January 1, 2018, under which the Company recorded structuring and other non-recurring upfront fees as income when earned. The Company has determined that the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance did not have a material impact on the amount of revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Note 3. Share Transactions

Below is a summary of transactions with respect to shares of the Company’s common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the administrator for the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan, or DRP, purchased 1,151,993 shares of common stock in the open market at an average price per share of $7.61 (totaling $8,762) pursuant to the DRP, and distributed such shares to participants in the DRP. During the period from July 1, 2018 to August 8, 2018, the administrator for the DRP purchased 398,169 shares of common stock in the open market at an average price per share of $7.76 (totaling $3,088) pursuant to the DRP, and distributed such shares to participants in the DRP. For additional information regarding the terms of the DRP, see Note 5.

Share Repurchase Program

In February 2018, the Company’s board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program. Under the program, the Company may repurchase up to $50 million in the aggregate of its outstanding common stock in the open market at prices below the then-current net asset value per share. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company, in its discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, the Company’s stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. The program will be in effect through February 21, 2019, unless extended or until the aggregate repurchase amount that has been approved by the Company’s board of directors has been expended. The program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares. The program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company repurchased 5,122,663 shares of common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program at an average price per share of $7.59 (totaling $38,904). During the period from July 1, 2018 to August 8, 2018, the Company repurchased 1,107,988 shares of common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program at an average price per share (inclusive of commissions paid) of $7.66 (totaling $8,488).

Compensation of the Investment Adviser

Pursuant to the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement, FS/KKR Advisor is entitled to an annual base management fee based on the average weekly value of the Company’s gross assets (gross assets equal the total assets of the Company as set forth on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets) and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears, and is calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the average weekly value of the Company’s gross assets. See Note 2 for a discussion of the capital gains and subordinated income incentive fees that FS/KKR Advisor may be entitled to under the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement.

Pursuant to the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement, FB Advisor was entitled to an annual base management fee equal to 1.75% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets (gross assets equal the total assets of the Company as set forth on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets) and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. FB Advisor had agreed, effective October 1, 2017, to (a) waive a portion of the base management fee to which it was entitled under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement so that the fee received equaled 1.50% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets and (b) continue to calculate the subordinated incentive fee on income to which it was entitled under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement as if the base management fee was 1.75% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets. Pursuant to the investment sub-advisory agreement, GDFM was entitled to receive 50% of all management and incentive fees payable to FB Advisor under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement with respect to each year.

On April 9, 2018, the Company entered into a new administration agreement with FS/KKR Advisor, or the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement, which replaced an administration agreement with FB Advisor, or the FB Advisor administration agreement. Pursuant to the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement, FS/KKR Advisor oversees the Company’s day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations, certain government and regulatory affairs activities, and other administrative services. FS/KKR Advisor also performs, or oversees the performance of, the Company’s corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports for the Company’s stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, FS/KKR Advisor assists the Company in calculating its net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Company’s stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others.

Pursuant to the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement, the Company reimburses FS/KKR Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to its administration and operations, including FS/KKR Advisor’s allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of FS Investments and KKR Credit providing administrative services to the Company on behalf of FS/KKR Advisor. The Company reimburses FS/KKR Advisor no less than quarterly for all costs and expenses incurred by FS/KKR Advisor in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement. FS/KKR Advisor allocates the cost of such services to the Company based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. The Company’s board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to the Company and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among the Company and certain affiliates of FS/KKR Advisor. The Company’s board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to it based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to the Company of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, the Company’s board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, the Company’s board of directors compares the total amount paid to FS/KKR Advisor for such services as a percentage of the Company’s net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs. The FB Advisor administration agreement was substantially similar to the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement.

The following table describes the fees and expenses accrued under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement, the FB Advisor administration agreement, the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement, and the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement, as applicable, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

(1)

FB Advisor agreed, effective October 1, 2017, to waive a portion of the base management fee to which it was entitled under the FB Advisor investment advisory agreement so that the fee received equaled 1.50% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the amount shown is net of waivers of $225 and $2,776, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $30,753 and $36,389, respectively, in base management fees were paid to FB Advisor. As of June 30, 2018, $15,088 in base management fees were payable to FB Advisor and FS/KKR Advisor.

(2)	During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $24,870 and $26,032, respectively, of subordinated incentive fees on income were paid to FB Advisor. As of June 30, 2018, a subordinated incentive fee on income of $10,906 was payable to FB Advisor and FS/KKR Advisor.

(3)

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $1,226 and $1,334, respectively, of administrative services expenses related to the allocation of costs of administrative personnel for services rendered to the Company by FB Advisor and FS/KKR Advisor and the remainder related to other reimbursable expenses. The Company paid $1,086 and $1,433, respectively, in administrative services expenses to FB Advisor and FS/KKR Advisor during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

The members of the senior management and investment teams of FS/KKR Advisor serve or may serve as officers, directors or principals of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business as the Company does, or of investment vehicles managed by the same personnel. For example, FS/KKR Advisor is the investment adviser to FS Investment Corporation II, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV, Corporate Capital Trust, Inc. and Corporate Capital Trust II, and the officers, managers and other personnel of FS/KKR Advisor may serve in similar or other capacities for the investment advisers to future investment vehicles affiliated with FS Investments or KKR Credit. In serving in these multiple and other capacities, they may have obligations to other clients or investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which may not be in the Company’s best interests or in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders. The Company’s investment objectives may overlap with the investment objectives of such investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles. For additional information regarding potential conflicts of interest, see the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Exemptive Relief

As a BDC, the Company is subject to certain regulatory restrictions in making its investments. For example, BDCs generally are not permitted to co-invest with certain affiliated entities in transactions originated by the BDC or its affiliates in the absence of an exemptive order from the SEC. However, BDCs are permitted to, and may, simultaneously co-invest in transactions where price is the only negotiated term.

In an order dated June 4, 2013, or the FS Order, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with certain affiliates of FB

Advisor, including FS Energy and Power Fund, FS Investment Corporation II, FS Investment Corporation III, FS Investment Corporation IV and any future BDCs that are advised by FB Advisor or its affiliated investment advisers. However, in connection with the investment advisory relationship with FS/KKR Advisor, and in an effort to mitigate potential future conflicts of interest, the Company’s board of directors authorized and directed that the Company (i) withdraw from the FS Order, except with respect to any transaction in which the Company participated in reliance on the FS Order prior to April 9, 2018, and (ii) rely on an exemptive relief order, dated April 3, 2018, that permits the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions, including investments originated and directly negotiated by FS/KKR Advisor or KKR Credit, with certain affiliates of FS/KKR Advisor.

Note 5. Distributions

The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that the Company has declared on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:


	Distribution
For the Three Months Ended	Per Share		Amount
Fiscal 2017
March 31, 2017	$	0.22275	$	54,485
June 30, 2017		0.22275		54,607

Total	$	0.44550	$	109,092

Fiscal 2018
March 31, 2018	$	0.19000	$	46,683
June 30, 2018		0.19000		45,945

Total	$	0.38000	$	92,628

On August 2, 2018, the Company’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash distribution of $0.19 per share, which will be paid on or about October 2, 2018 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 19, 2018. As previously announced by the Company, subject to market conditions, the Company’s board of directors currently intends to make a special distribution in the fourth quarter of 2018 that equates to the cumulative amount, if any, of net investment income earned during the twelve months following October 1, 2017 that is in excess of $0.76 per share. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors.

Pursuant to the Company’s DRP, the Company will reinvest all cash dividends or distributions declared by the Company’s board of directors on behalf of stockholders who do not elect to receive their distributions in cash. As a result, if the Company’s board of directors declares a distribution, then stockholders who have not elected to “opt out” of the DRP will have their distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock.

With respect to each distribution pursuant to the DRP, the Company reserves the right to either issue new shares of common stock or purchase shares of common stock in the open market in connection with implementation of the DRP. Unless the Company, in its sole discretion, otherwise directs the plan administrator, (A) if the per share market price (as defined in the DRP) is equal to or greater than the estimated net asset value per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) of the Company’s common stock on the payment date for the distribution, then the Company will issue shares of common stock at the greater of (i) net asset value per share of common stock or (ii) 95% of the market price; or (B) if the market price is less than the net asset value per share, then, in the sole discretion of the Company, (i) shares of common stock will be purchased in open market transactions for the accounts of participants to the extent practicable, or (ii) the Company will issue shares of common stock at net asset value per share. Pursuant to the terms of the DRP, the number of shares of common stock to be issued to a participant will be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to a participant by the price per share at which the Company issues such shares; provided, however, that shares purchased in open market transactions by the plan administrator

FS Investment Corporation

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 5. Distributions (continued)

will be allocated to a participant based on the average purchase price, excluding any brokerage charges or other charges, of all shares of common stock purchased in the open market.

If a stockholder receives distributions in the form of common stock pursuant to the DRP, such stockholder generally will be subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as if it elected to receive distributions in cash. If the Company’s common stock is trading at or below net asset value, a stockholder receiving distributions in the form of additional common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount of cash that they would have received if they had elected to receive the distribution in cash. If the Company’s common stock is trading above net asset value, a stockholder receiving distributions in the form of additional common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. The stockholder’s basis for determining gain or loss upon the sale of common stock received in a distribution will be equal to the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to the stockholder. Any stock received in a distribution will have a holding period for tax purposes commencing on the day following the day on which the shares of common stock are credited to the stockholder’s account.

The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds legally available to it, including proceeds from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, and dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. During certain periods, the Company’s distributions may exceed its earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions the Company makes may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholder’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from the Company’s investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on the sale of securities, and/or a return of capital, which is a nontaxable distribution) will be mailed to the Company’s stockholders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.

The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions on a tax basis that the Company has paid on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:


	Six Months Ended June 30,

During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, 86.2% and 89.7%, respectively, of the Company’s gross investment income was attributable to cash income earned, 1.2% and 1.3%, respectively, was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount and 12.6% and 9.0%, respectively, was attributable to PIK interest.

The Company’s net investment income on a tax basis for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $97,627 and $100,805, respectively. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $151,646 and $146,647 of undistributed net investment income, respectively, and $173,033 and $195,140, respectively, of accumulated capital losses on a tax basis.

Note 5. Distributions (continued)

The difference between the Company’s GAAP-basis net investment income and its tax-basis net investment income is primarily due to the reclassification of unamortized original issue discount and prepayment fees recognized upon prepayment of loans from income for GAAP purposes to realized gains or deferred to future periods for tax purposes, the impact of consolidating certain subsidiaries for purposes of computing GAAP-basis net investment income but not for purposes of computing tax-basis net investment income and income recognized for tax purposes on certain transactions but not recognized for GAAP purposes.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation between GAAP-basis net investment income and tax-basis net investment income during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
GAAP-basis net investment income	$	96,502		$	99,050
Income subject to tax not recorded for GAAP		(2,836	)		(163	)

Reclassification or deferral of unamortized original issue discount, prepayment fees and other income		(1,804	)		(4,100	)
Other miscellaneous differences		76			162

Tax-basis net investment income	$	97,627		$	100,805

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. Therefore, a determination made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of the Company’s distributions for a full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders are reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:


	June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)			December 31, 2017
Distributable ordinary income	$	151,646		$	146,647
Distributable realized gains (accumulated capital losses)⁽¹⁾		(173,033	)		(195,140	)
Other temporary differences		(236	)		(257	)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and secured borrowing and gain/loss on foreign currency⁽²⁾		(72,249	)		60,636

Total	$	(93,872)		$	11,886

(1)	Net capital losses may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term or long-term losses. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had short-term and long-term capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains of $2,823 and $170,210, respectively.

(2)

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the gross unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments and secured borrowing and gain on foreign currency was $203,378 and $259,416, respectively. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the gross unrealized depreciation on the Company’s investments and secured borrowing and loss on foreign currency was $275,627 and $198,780, respectively.

The aggregate cost of the Company’s investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes totaled $3,704,810 and $3,869,322 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on a tax basis was $(77,909) and $56,912 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had a deferred tax liability of $10,425 resulting from unrealized appreciation on investments held by the Company’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries and a deferred tax asset of $18,087 resulting from net operating losses of the Company’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2018, certain wholly-owned taxable

subsidiaries anticipated that they would be unable to fully utilize their generated net operating losses and capital losses, therefore the deferred tax asset was offset by a valuation allowance of $7,662. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company did not record a provision for taxes related to its wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries.

Note 6. Investment Portfolio

The following table summarizes the composition of the Company’s investment portfolio at cost and fair value as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under existing accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. This accounting guidance emphasizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy as defined by current accounting guidance:

Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s investments were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy:


Valuation Inputs	June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)		December 31, 2017
Level 1—Price quotations in active markets	$	642	$	9,445
Level 2—Significant other observable inputs		373,963		—
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs		3,252,296		3,916,789

	$	3,626,901	$	3,926,234

The Company has elected the fair value option under ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, relating to accounting for debt obligations at their fair value for its secured borrowing which arose due to partial loan sales which did not meet the criteria for sale treatment under ASC Topic 860. The Company reports changes in the fair value of its secured borrowing as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on secured borrowing in the consolidated statements of operations. The net gain or loss reflects the difference between the fair value and the principal amount due on maturity.

The Company’s investments consist primarily of debt investments that were acquired directly from the issuer. Debt investments, for which broker quotes are not available, are valued by independent valuation firms, which determine the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, expected cash flows, call features, anticipated prepayments and other relevant terms of the investments. Except as described below, all of the Company’s equity/other investments are also valued by independent valuation firms, which determine the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. An investment that is newly issued and purchased near the date of the financial statements is valued at cost if the Company’s board of directors determines that the cost of such investment is the best indication of its fair value. Such investments described above are typically classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. Investments that are traded on an active public market are valued at their closing price as of the date of the financial statements and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. Except as described above, the Company values its other investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which are provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services and are typically classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices it receives from the third-party pricing services and/or dealers and independent valuation firms as applicable, 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 prices are reliable indicators of fair value. The valuation committee of the Company’s board of directors, or the valuation committee, and the board of directors reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Company’s valuation policy.

Investments using a market quotes valuation technique were valued by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which were provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services. For investments utilizing a market comparables valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the market yield, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, and a significant increase (decrease) in any of the valuation multiples, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing an option valuation model valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the volatility, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Note 10. Financial Highlights (continued)

(1)	Per share data may be rounded in order to recompute the ending net asset value per share.

(2)	The per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding during the applicable period.

(3)	The per share data for distributions reflect the actual amount of distributions paid per share during the applicable period.

(4)

The issuance of common stock on a per share basis reflects the incremental net asset value changes as a result of the issuance of shares of common stock pursuant to the Company’s DRP. The issuance of common stock at a price that is greater than the net asset value per share results in an increase in net asset value per share. The per share impact of the Company’s DRP is an increase to the net asset value of less than $0.01 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017.

(5)	Represents the incremental impact of the Company’s share repurchase program by buying shares in the open market at a price lower than NAV.

(6)

The total return based on net asset value for each period presented was calculated by taking the net asset value per share as of the end of the applicable period, adding the cash distributions per share that were declared during the period and dividing the total by the net asset value per share at the beginning of the period. Total return based on net asset value does not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock. The historical calculation of total return based on net asset value in the table should not be considered a representation of the Company’s future total return based on net asset value, which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a number of factors, including the Company’s ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet its investment criteria, the interest rates payable on the debt securities the Company acquires, the level of the Company’s expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which the Company encounters competition in its markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods. The total return calculations set forth above represent the total return on the Company’s investment portfolio during the applicable period and do not represent an actual return to stockholders.

(7)

The total return based on market value for each period presented was calculated based on the change in market price during the applicable period, including the impact of distributions reinvested in accordance with the Company’s DRP. Total return based on market value does not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock. The historical calculation of total return based on market value in the table should not be considered a representation of the Company’s future total return based on market value, which may be greater or less than the return shown in the table due to a number of factors, including the Company’s ability or inability to make investments in companies that meet its investment criteria, the interest rates payable on the debt securities the Company acquires, the level of the Company’s expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which the Company encounters competition in its markets, general economic conditions and fluctuations in per share market value. As a result of these factors, results for any previous period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

(8)

Weighted average net assets during the applicable period are used for this calculation. Ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are annualized. Annualized ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the ratios that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. The following is a schedule of supplemental ratios for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017:


	Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)		Year Ended December 31, 2017
	Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 (Unaudited)		Year Ended December 31, 2017
Ratio of subordinated income incentive fees to average net assets		2.03%		2.19%
Ratio of interest expense to average net assets		3.62%		3.44%
Ratio of excise taxes to average net assets		—		0.23%

(9)	Portfolio turnover for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is not annualized.

(10)	Asset coverage per unit is the ratio of the carrying value of the Company’s total consolidated assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness.

Note 11. Subsequent Events

Pending Merger with CCT

On July 22, 2018, the Company entered into the Merger Agreement with CCT, Merger Sub and FS/KKR Advisor. The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into CCT, with CCT continuing as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and, immediately thereafter, CCT will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving company. The parties to the Merger Agreement intend the Transaction to be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

In the Merger, each share of CCT common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be converted into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to an exchange ratio to be determined in connection with the closing of the Merger, or the Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio will equal the net asset value per share of CCT common stock (determined no earlier than two business days prior to the closing date of the Merger), divided by the net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock (determined no earlier than two business days prior to the closing date of the Merger). No fractional shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued, and holders of CCT common stock will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

Consummation of the Merger, which is currently anticipated to occur during the fourth quarter of 2018, is subject to certain closing conditions, including (1) requisite approvals of the Company’s stockholders and CCT stockholders, (2) the absence of certain legal impediments to the consummation of the Merger, (3) effectiveness of the registration statement for the Company’s common stock to be issued as consideration in the Merger, (4) subject to certain exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties and compliance with the covenants of each party to the Merger Agreement and (5) required regulatory approvals (including expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended).

The Merger is expected to be accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with the asset acquisition method of accounting as detailed in ASC 805-50, Business Combinations—Related Issues. Generally, under asset acquisition accounting, acquiring assets in groups not only requires ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net assets), but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of the group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition is allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values of net identifiable assets acquired other than certain “non-qualifying” assets (for example cash) and does not give rise to goodwill. The final allocation of the purchase price will be determined after the Merger is completed and after completion of a final analysis to determine the estimated relative fair values of CCT’s assets and liabilities.

In connection with the Merger, the Company is seeking stockholder approval to amend the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement to (a) exclude cash and cash equivalents from the gross assets on which the annual base management fee is calculated, (b) revise the calculation of the cap on the subordinated incentive fee on income to take into account the historic per share pre-incentive fee return of both the Company and CCT, together with the historic per share incentive fees paid by both the Company and CCT, and (c) revise the calculation of incentive fees on capital gains to include historical net realized losses and unrealized depreciation of both the Company and CCT.

Revolving Credit Facility

On August 9, 2018, or the Effective Date, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility, or the Revolving Credit Facility, with CCT, FS Investment Corporation II, FS Investment Corporation III, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., or JPMCB, as administrative agent, ING Capital LLC, or ING, as collateral agent and the lenders party thereto. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for borrowings in U.S. dollars and certain agreed upon foreign currencies in an initial aggregate amount of up to $3,435,000, with an option for the Company to request, at one or more times after the Effective Date, that existing or new lenders, at their election, provide up to $1,717,500 of additional commitments. As of the Effective Date, the Revolving Credit Facility provides that the Company may borrow up to a sublimit of $685,000 of the total facility amount, which sublimit may be reduced or increased from time to time pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility and subject to the oversight and approval of the Company’s board of directors. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for the issuance of letters of credit on

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 11. Subsequent Events (continued)

behalf of the Company in an aggregate face amount not to exceed $25,000. The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, including Race Street Funding LLC, IC American Energy Investments, Inc., FSIC Investments, Inc., IC Altus Investments, LLC, IC Arches Investments, LLC and Hamilton Street Funding LLC. The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and the subsidiary guarantors thereunder.

Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility will terminate on August 9, 2022, or the Revolver Termination Date, and the outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will mature on August 9, 2023. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires mandatory prepayment of interest and principal upon certain events during the term-out period commencing on the Revolver Termination Date.

The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility drawn by the Company on the Effective Date were used in part to prepay in full all loans outstanding on the Effective Date under (i) the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of April 3, 2014, by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and ING as administrative agent (as amended, restated, amended and restated and otherwise modified on or prior to the Effective Date) and (ii) the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2016, by and among Hamilton Street Funding LLC, the lenders party thereto, HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as administrative agent, and U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral agent, account bank and custodian (as amended, restated, amended and restated and otherwise modified on or prior to the Effective Date).

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base. Interest under the Revolving Credit Facility for (i) loans for which the Company elects the base rate option, (A) if the borrowing base is equal to or greater than 1.85 times the combined debt amount, is payable at an “alternate base rate” (which is the greatest of (a) the prime rate as publicly announced by JPMCB, (b) the sum of (x) the greater of (I) the federal funds effective rate and (II) the overnight bank funding rate plus (y) 0.5%, and (c) the one month LIBOR plus 1% per annum) plus 0.75% and, (B) if the borrowing base is less than 1.85 times the combined debt amount, the alternate base rate plus 1.00%; and (ii) loans for which the Company elects the Eurocurrency option (A) if the borrowing base is equal to or greater than 1.85 times the combined debt amount, is payable at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.75% and (B) if the borrowing base is less than 1.85 times the combined debt amount, is payable at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 2.00%. The Revolving Credit Facility will be subject to a non-usage fee of at least 0.375% and up to 0.50% per annum (based on the immediately preceding period’s average usage) on the unused portion of the commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility during the revolving period. The Company will be required to pay letter of credit participation fees and a fronting fee on the average daily amount of any lender’s exposure with respect to any letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility.

In connection with the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company has made certain representations and warranties and must comply with various covenants and reporting requirements customary for facilities of this type. In addition, the Company must comply with the following financial covenants: (a) the Company must maintain a minimum shareholders’ equity, measured as of each fiscal quarter end; and (b) the Company must maintain at all times a 200% asset coverage ratio.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains events of default customary for facilities of this type. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, JPMCB, at the instruction of the lenders, may terminate the commitments and declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility immediately due and payable.

Overview

We were incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007 and formally commenced investment operations on January 2, 2009. 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 and has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

On April 16, 2014, shares of our common stock began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “FSIC”. This listing accomplished our goal of providing our stockholders with greatly enhanced liquidity.

Our investment activities are managed by FS/KKR Advisor and supervised by our board of directors, a majority of whom are independent. Under the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement, we have agreed to pay FS/KKR Advisor an annual base management fee based on the average weekly value of our gross assets and an incentive fee based on our performance.

Our investment activities were managed by FB Advisor until April 9, 2018 and thereafter have been managed by FS/KKR Advisor. FB Advisor previously engaged GDFM to act as our investment sub-adviser. GDFM resigned as our investment sub-adviser and terminated the investment sub-advisory agreement on April 9, 2018.

Our investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. We have identified and intend to focus on the following investment categories, which we believe will allow us to generate an attractive total return with an acceptable level of risk.

Direct Originations: We intend to directly source investment opportunities. Such investments are originated or structured for us or made by us and are not generally available to the broader market. These investments may include both debt and equity components, although we do not generally make equity investments independent of having an existing credit relationship. We believe directly originated investments may offer higher returns and more favorable protections than broadly syndicated transactions.

Opportunistic: We intend to seek to capitalize on market price inefficiencies by investing in loans, bonds and other securities where the market price of such investment reflects a lower value than deemed warranted by our fundamental analysis. We believe that market price inefficiencies may occur due to, among other things, general dislocations in the markets, a misunderstanding by the market of a particular company or an industry being out of favor with the broader investment community. We seek to allocate capital to these securities that have been misunderstood or mispriced by the market and where we believe there is an opportunity to earn an attractive return on our investment. Such opportunities may include event driven investments, anchor orders (i.e., opportunities that are originated and then syndicated by a commercial or investment bank but where we provide a capital commitment significantly above the average syndicate participant) and CLOs.

In the case of event driven investments, we intend to take advantage of dislocations that arise in the markets due to an impending event and where the market’s apparent expectation of value differs substantially from our fundamental analysis. Such events may include a looming debt maturity or default, a merger, spin-off or other corporate reorganization, an adverse regulatory or legal ruling, or a material contract expiration, any of which may significantly improve or impair a company’s financial position. Compared to other investment strategies, event driven investing depends more heavily on our ability to successfully predict the outcome of an individual event rather than on underlying macroeconomic fundamentals. As a result, successful event driven strategies may offer both substantial diversification benefits and the ability to generate performance in uncertain market environments.

We may also invest in anchor orders. In these types of investments, we may receive fees, preferential pricing or other benefits not available to other lenders in return for our significant capital commitment. Our decision to provide an anchor order to a syndicated transaction is predicated on a rigorous credit analysis, our familiarity with a particular company, industry or financial sponsor, and the broader investment experiences of our investment adviser.

In addition, we opportunistically invest in CLOs. CLOs are a form of securitization where the cash flow from a pooled basket of syndicated loans is used to support distribution payments made to different tranches of securities. While collectively CLOs represent nearly fifty percent of the broadly syndicated loan universe, investing in individual CLO tranches requires a high degree of investor sophistication due to their structural complexity and the illiquid nature of their securities.

Broadly Syndicated/Other: Although our primary focus is to invest in directly originated transactions and opportunistic investments, in certain circumstances we will also invest in the broadly syndicated loan and high yield markets. Broadly syndicated loans and bonds are generally more liquid than our directly originated investments and provide a complement to our less liquid strategies. In addition, and because we typically receive more attractive financing terms on these positions than we do on our less liquid assets, we are able to leverage the broadly syndicated portion of our portfolio in such a way that maximizes the levered return potential of our portfolio.

Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private middle market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans of private U.S. companies. Although we do not expect a significant portion of our portfolio to be comprised of subordinated loans, there is no limit on the amount of such loans in which we may invest. We may purchase interests in loans or make other debt investments, including investments in senior secured bonds, through secondary market transactions in the “over-the-counter” market or directly from our target companies as primary market or directly originated investments. In connection with our debt investments, we may on occasion receive equity interests such as warrants or options as additional consideration. We may also purchase or otherwise acquire interests in the form of common or preferred equity or equity-related securities, such as rights and warrants that may be converted into or exchanged for common stock or other equity or the cash value of common stock or other equity, in our target companies, generally in conjunction with one of our debt investments, including through the restructuring of such investments, or through a co-investment with a financial sponsor, such as an institutional investor or private equity firm. In addition, a portion of our portfolio may be comprised of corporate bonds, CLOs, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps. FS/KKR Advisor will seek to tailor our investment focus as market conditions evolve. Depending on market conditions, we may increase or decrease our exposure to less senior portions of the capital structure or otherwise make opportunistic investments. The senior secured loans, second lien secured loans and senior secured bonds in which we invest generally have stated terms of three to seven years and subordinated debt investments that we make generally have stated terms of up to ten years, but the expected average life of such securities is generally between three and seven years. However, there is no limit on the maturity or duration of any security in our portfolio. Our debt investments may be rated by a NRSRO and, in such case, generally will carry a rating below investment grade.

Revenues

The principal measure of our financial performance is net increase in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income, net realized gain or loss on investments, net realized gain or loss on foreign currency, net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments and net unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency. Net investment income is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating and other expenses. Net realized gain or loss on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost, including the respective realized gain or loss on foreign currency for those foreign denominated investment transactions. Net realized gain or loss on foreign currency is the portion of realized gain or loss attributable to foreign currency fluctuations. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio, including the respective unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency for those foreign denominated investments. Net unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency is the net change in the value of receivables or accruals due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

We principally generate revenues in the form of interest income on the debt investments we hold. In addition, we generate revenues in the form of non-recurring commitment, closing, origination, structuring or diligence fees, monitoring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees, prepayment fees and performance-based fees. We may also generate revenues in the form of dividends and other distributions on the equity or other securities we hold.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of management and incentive fees and other expenses under the FS/KKR investment advisory agreement and the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement, interest expense from financing arrangements and other indebtedness, and other expenses necessary for our operations. The management and incentive fees compensate FS/KKR Advisor for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, executing, monitoring and servicing our investments.

FS/KKR Advisor oversees our day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations, certain government and regulatory affairs activities, and other administrative services. FS/KKR Advisor also performs, or oversees the performance of, our corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports for our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, FS/KKR Advisor assists us in calculating our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others.

Pursuant to the FS/KKR Advisor administration agreement, we reimburse FS/KKR Advisor for expenses necessary to perform services related to our administration and operations, including FS/KKR Advisor’s allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of FS Investments and KKR Credit providing administrative services to us on behalf of FS/KKR Advisor. We reimburse FS/KKR Advisor no less than quarterly for all costs and expenses incurred by FS/KKR Advisor in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the FS/KKR administration agreement. FS/KKR Advisor allocates the cost of such services to us based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. Our board of directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to us and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among us and certain affiliates of FS/KKR Advisor. Our board of directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to us based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to us of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, our board of directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, our board of directors compares the total amount paid to FS/KKR Advisor for such services as a percentage of our net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.

We bear all other expenses of our operations and transactions, including all other expenses incurred by FS/KKR Advisor in performing services for us and administrative personnel paid by FS Investments and KKR Credit.

In addition, we have contracted with State Street Bank and Trust Company to provide various accounting and administrative services, including, but not limited to, preparing preliminary financial information for review by FS/KKR Advisor, preparing and monitoring expense budgets, maintaining accounting and corporate books and records, processing trade information provided by us and performing testing with respect to RIC compliance.

Pending Merger with CCT

On July 22, 2018, the Company, CCT, Merger Sub and FS/KKR Advisor entered into the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into CCT, with CCT continuing as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and, immediately thereafter, CCT will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving company. The parties to the Merger Agreement intend the Transaction to be treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

In the Merger, each share of CCT common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be converted into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio will equal the net asset value per share of CCT common stock (determined no earlier than two business days prior to the closing date of the Merger), divided by the net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock (determined no earlier than two business days prior to the closing date of the Merger). No fractional shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued, and holders of CCT common stock will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares.

The Merger Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to the operation of each of the Company’s and CCT’s businesses during the period prior to the closing of the Merger. The Company and CCT have agreed to convene and hold meetings of their stockholders for the purpose of obtaining the required approvals of the Company’s and CCT’s stockholders, respectively, and have agreed to recommend that their stockholders approve their respective proposals.

The Merger Agreement provides that each of the Company and CCT may not solicit proposals relating to alternative transactions, or, subject to certain exceptions, enter into discussions or negotiations or provide information in connection with any proposal for an alternative transaction. However, each of the Company’s board of directors and the CCT board of directors may, subject to certain conditions and in some instances payment of a termination fee of approximately $75,200, change its recommendation to their respective stockholders, terminate the Merger Agreement and enter into an agreement with respect to a superior alternative proposal if it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would be reasonably likely to breach its standard of conduct under applicable law (taking into account any changes to the Merger Agreement proposed by CCT or the Company, as applicable).

The Merger Agreement also contains certain termination rights in favor of the Company and CCT, including if the Merger is not completed on or before July 22, 2019 or if the requisite approvals of the Company’s stockholders or CCT stockholders are not obtained. The Merger Agreement also provides that, upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to pay CCT, or CCT may be required to pay the Company, a termination fee of approximately $75,200.

Portfolio Asset Quality

In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, FS/KKR Advisor uses, and FB Advisor historically used, an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. FS/KKR Advisor uses, and FB Advisor historically used, an investment rating scale of 1 to 5. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:


Investment Rating		Summary Description
1		Investment exceeding expectations and/or capital gain expected.

2		Performing investment generally executing in accordance with the portfolio company’s business plan—full return of principal and interest expected.

3		Performing investment requiring closer monitoring.

4		Underperforming investment—some loss of interest or dividend possible, but still expecting a positive return on investment.

5		Underperforming investment with expected loss of interest and some principal.

The following table shows the distribution of our investments on the 1 to 5 investment rating scale at fair value as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:


	June 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
Investment Rating	Fair Value		Percentage of Portfolio		Fair Value		Percentage of Portfolio
1	$	212,953		6%	$	418,237		11%

Total	$	3,626,901		100%	$	3,926,234		100%

The amount of the portfolio in each grading category may vary substantially from period to period resulting primarily from changes in the composition of the 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.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017

Revenues

Our investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,										Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018					2017					2018					2017

Such revenues represent $83,150 and $87,526 of cash income earned as well as $12,425 and $11,169 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and represent $169,382 and $183,604 of cash income earned as well as $27,211 and $21,155 in non-cash portions relating to accretion of discount and PIK interest for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Cash flows related to such non-cash revenues may not occur for a number of reporting periods or years after such revenues are recognized.

The level of interest income we receive is generally related to the balance of income-producing investments, multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. Fee income is transaction based, and typically consists of amendment and consent fees, prepayment fees, structuring fees and other non-recurring fees. As such, fee income is generally dependent on new direct origination investments and the occurrence of events at existing portfolio companies resulting in such fees.

The increase in interest and PIK interest income during the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2017 can be attributed to an increase in LIBOR and the Prime rate. The decrease in fee income during the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to the decrease of structuring and prepayment activity during the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2017.

The increase in interest and PIK interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017 can be attributed to the restructuring of certain assets into assets with a higher PIK interest rate and an increase in LIBOR and the Prime rate. The decrease in fee income during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to the decrease of structuring and prepayment activity during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The increase in dividend income during the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to a one-time dividend paid in respect of one of our investments during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Expenses

Our operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

(1)	Ratio data may be rounded in order to recompute the ending ratio of net operating expenses to average net assets or net operating expenses, excluding certain expenses, to average net assets.

Incentive fees and interest expense, among other things, may increase or decrease our expense ratios relative to comparative periods depending on portfolio performance and changes in amounts outstanding under our financing arrangements and benchmark interest rates such as LIBOR, among other factors.

Net Investment Income

Our net investment income totaled $45,955 ($0.19 per share) and $46,460 ($0.19 per share) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in net investment income can be attributed primarily to lower fee income during the three months ended June 30, 2018 as discussed above, which was partially offset by a reduction in the management fee effective in the second quarter of 2018.

Our net investment income totaled $96,502 ($0.40 per share) and $99,050 ($0.40 per share) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in net investment income can be attributed primarily to lower fee income during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as discussed above, which was partially offset by higher dividend income and the management fee waiver.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

Our net realized gains (losses) on investments and foreign currency for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Net realized gain (loss) on investments⁽¹⁾	$	30,665	$	(14,147)	$	26,322	$	(115,168)

We sold investments and received principal repayments, respectively, of $137,014 and $213,239 during the three months ended June 30, 2018 and $48,617 and $261,952 during the three months ended June 30, 2017. We sold investments and received principal repayments, respectively, of $168,761 and $397,437 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and $217,870 and $457,007 during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

Our net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, secured borrowing and unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments	$	(110,532)	$	(10,928)	$	(143,270)	$	101,505

Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency		2,538		(3,004)		1,936		(3,726)

Total net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)	$	(107,994)	$	(13,932)	$	(141,334)	$	97,769

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) was driven primarily by lower valuations in a few select investments.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the net decrease in net assets resulting from operations was $31,338 ($0.13 per share) compared to a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $18,442 ($0.08 per share) during the three months ended June 30, 2017.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the net decrease in net assets resulting from operations was $18,413 ($0.08 per share) compared to a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $81,835 ($0.33 per share) during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of June 30, 2018, we had $200,778 in cash and foreign currency, which we or our wholly-owned financing subsidiaries held in custodial accounts, and $346,220 in borrowings available under our financing arrangements, subject to borrowing base and other limitations. As of June 30, 2018, we also had broadly syndicated investments and opportunistic investments that could be sold to create additional liquidity. As of June 30, 2018, we had twenty-two unfunded debt investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of $126,991 and one unfunded commitment to purchase up to $112 in shares of preferred stock. We maintain sufficient cash on hand, available borrowings and liquid securities to fund such unfunded commitments should the need arise.

We currently generate cash primarily from cash flows from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments, as well as principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. To seek to enhance our returns, we also employ leverage as market conditions permit and at the discretion of FS/KKR Advisor, but in no event will leverage employed exceed 50% of the value of our assets, as required by the 1940 Act. See “—Financing Arrangements.”

Prior to investing in securities of portfolio companies, we invest the cash received from fees, interest and dividends earned from our investments and principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments primarily in cash, cash equivalents, including money market funds, U.S. government securities, repurchase agreements and high-quality debt instruments maturing in one year or less from the time of investment, consistent with our BDC election and our election to be taxed as a RIC.

RIC Status and Distributions

We have elected to be subject to tax as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify for RIC tax treatment, we must, among other things, make distributions of an amount at least equal to 90% of our investment company taxable income, determined without regard to any deduction for distributions paid, each tax year. As long as the distributions are declared by the later of the fifteenth day of the ninth month following the close of a tax year or the due date of the tax return for such tax year, including extensions, distributions paid up to twelve months after the current tax year can be carried back to the prior tax year for determining the distributions paid in such tax year. We intend to make sufficient distributions to our stockholders to qualify for and maintain our RIC tax status each tax year. We are also subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise taxes on certain undistributed income unless we make distributions in a timely manner to our stockholders generally of an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of our net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income, which is the excess of capital gains in excess of capital losses, or “capital gain net income” (adjusted for certain ordinary losses), for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year and (3) any net ordinary income and capital gain net income for the preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax. Any distribution declared by us during October, November or December of any calendar year, payable to stockholders of record on a specified date in such a month and actually paid during January of the following calendar year, will be treated as if it had been paid by us, as well as received by our U.S. stockholders, on December 31 of the calendar year in which the distribution was declared. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit us to pay any cash distributions. If we issue senior securities, we will be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes us to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings.

Subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors, we intend to authorize, declare and pay regular cash distributions on a quarterly basis. We will calculate each stockholder’s specific distribution amount for the

period using record and declaration dates and each stockholder’s distributions will begin to accrue on the date that shares of our common stock are issued to such stockholder. From time to time, we may also pay special interim distributions in the form of cash or shares of our common stock at the discretion of our board of directors. As previously announced by the Company, subject to market conditions, our board of directors currently intends to make a special distribution in the fourth quarter of 2018 that equates to the cumulative amount, if any, of net investment income earned during the twelve months following October 1, 2017 that is in excess of $0.76 per share. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of our board of directors.

During certain periods, our distributions may exceed our earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions we make may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholder’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from our investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions will be mailed to our stockholders. No portion of the distributions paid during the six months ended June 30, 2018 or 2017 represented a return of capital.

We intend to continue to make our regular distributions in the form of cash, out of assets legally available for distribution, except for those stockholders who receive their distributions in the form of shares of our common stock under the DRP. Any distributions reinvested under the plan will nevertheless remain taxable to a U.S. stockholder.

The following table reflects the cash distributions per share that we have declared on our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:


	Distribution
For the Three Months Ended	Per Share		Amount
Fiscal 2017
March 31, 2017	$	0.22275	$	54,485
June 30, 2017		0.22275		54,607

Total	$	0.44550	$	109,092

See Note 5 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding our distributions, including a reconciliation of our GAAP-basis net investment income to our tax-basis net investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our 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 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 financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its 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. As we execute our operating plans, we will describe additional critical accounting policies in the notes to our future financial statements in addition to those discussed below.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

We determine the net asset value of our investment portfolio each quarter. Securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. In connection with that determination, FS/KKR Advisor provides our board of directors with portfolio company valuations which are based on relevant inputs, including, but not limited to, indicative dealer quotes, values of like securities, recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts, and valuations prepared by independent third-party valuation services.

Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the FASB, clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC Topic 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 Topic 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities where there is little or no activity in the market; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

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 fair valuation process begins with FS/KKR Advisor’s management team reviewing and documenting valuations of each portfolio company or investment, which valuations may be obtained from an independent third-party valuation service, if applicable;

•

FS/KKR Advisor’s management team then provides the valuation committee with the preliminary valuations for each portfolio company or investment;

•

preliminary valuations are then discussed with the valuation committee;

•

our valuation committee reviews the preliminary valuations and FS/KKR Advisor’s management team, together with our independent third-party valuation services, if applicable, supplement the preliminary valuations to reflect any comments provided by the valuation committee;

•

following its review, the valuation committee will recommend that our board of directors approve our fair valuations; and

•

our board of directors discusses the valuations and determines the fair value of each such investment in our portfolio in good faith based on various statistical and other factors, including the input and recommendation of FS/KKR Advisor, the valuation committee and any independent third-party valuation services, if applicable.

Determination of fair value involves 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 on our consolidated financial statements. In making its determination of fair value, our board of directors may use any approved independent third-party pricing or valuation services. However, our board of directors is not required to determine fair value in accordance with the valuation provided by any single source, and may use any relevant data, including information obtained from FS/KKR Advisor or any approved independent third-party valuation or pricing service that our board of directors deems to be reliable in determining fair value under the circumstances. Below is a description of factors that FS/KKR Advisor’s management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and our board of directors may consider when determining the fair value of our investments.

Valuation of fixed income investments, such as loans and debt securities, depends upon a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates for like securities, expected volatility in future interest rates, call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt. For investments without readily available market prices, we may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Other factors that may be considered include the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the borrower in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing our debt investments.

For convertible debt securities, fair value generally approximates the fair value of the debt plus the fair value of an option to purchase the underlying security (i.e., the security into which the debt may convert) at the conversion price. To value such an option, a standard option pricing model may be used.

Our equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. Our board of directors, in its determination of fair value, may consider various factors, such as multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. All of these factors may be subject to adjustments based upon the particular circumstances of a portfolio company or our actual investment position. For example, adjustments to EBITDA may take into account compensation to previous owners or acquisition, recapitalization, restructuring or other related items.

FS/KKR Advisor’s management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and our board of directors may also consider private merger and acquisition statistics, public trading multiples discounted for illiquidity and other factors, valuations implied by third-party investments in the portfolio companies or industry practices in determining fair value. FS/KKR Advisor’s management team, any approved independent third-party valuation services and our board of directors may also consider the size and scope of a portfolio company and its specific strengths and weaknesses, and may apply discounts or premiums, where and as appropriate, due to the higher (or lower) financial risk and/or the smaller size of portfolio companies relative to comparable firms, as well as such other factors as our board of directors, in consultation with FS/KKR Advisor’s management team and any approved independent third-party valuation services, if applicable, may consider relevant in assessing fair value. Generally, the value of our equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available is based upon the most recent closing public market price. Portfolio securities that carry certain restrictions on sale are typically valued at a discount from the public market value of the security.

When we receive warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, the cost basis in the investment will be allocated between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. Our board of directors subsequently values these warrants or other equity securities received at their fair value.

The fair values of our investments are determined in good faith by our board of directors. Our board of directors is responsible for the valuation of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to our valuation policy and consistently applied valuation process. Our board of directors has delegated day-to-day responsibility for implementing our valuation policy to FS/KKR Advisor’s management team, and has authorized FS/KKR Advisor’s management team to utilize independent third-party valuation and pricing services that have been approved by our board of directors. The valuation committee is responsible for overseeing FS/KKR Advisor’s implementation of the valuation process.

See Note 7 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding the fair value of our financial instruments.

Revenue Recognition

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. We record dividend income on the ex-dividend date. We do not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such income. Our policy is to place investments on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that interest income will be collected. We consider many factors relevant to an investment when placing it on or removing it from non-accrual status including, but not limited to, the delinquency status of the investment, economic and business conditions, the overall financial condition of the underlying investment, the value of the underlying collateral, bankruptcy status, if any, and any other facts or circumstances relevant to the investment. If there is reasonable doubt that we will receive any previously accrued interest, then the interest income will be written-off. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the collectability of the remaining principal and interest. Non-accrual investments may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are likely to remain current based on our judgment.

Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and we amortize such amounts as interest income over the respective term of the loan or security. Upon the prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when we receive such amounts.

Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the cumulative effect method applied to in-scope contracts with customers that have not been completed as of the date of adoption. We did not identify any in-scope contracts that had not been completed as of the date of adoption and, as a result, we did not recognize a cumulative effect on stockholders’ equity in connection with the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance.

The new revenue recognition guidance applies to all entities and all contracts with customers to provide goods or services in the ordinary course of business, excluding, among other things, financial instruments as well as certain other contractual rights and obligations. Under the new revenue recognition guidance, which we have applied to all new in-scope contracts as of the date of adoption, structuring and other upfront fees are recognized as revenue based on the transaction price as the performance obligation is fulfilled. The related performance obligation consists of structuring activities and is satisfied over time as such activities are performed. Consideration is variable and is constrained from being included in the transaction price until the

uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved, typically as of the trade date of the related transaction. Payment is typically due on the settlement date of the related transaction.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized $2,555 in structuring fee revenue under the new revenue recognition guidance and included such revenue in the fee income line item on our consolidated statement of operations. Comparative periods are presented in accordance with revenue recognition guidance effective prior to January 1, 2018, under which we recorded structuring and other non-recurring upfront fees as income when earned. We have determined that the adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance did not have a material impact on the amount of revenue recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Net Realized Gains or Losses, Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation and Net Change in Unrealized Gains or Losses on Foreign Currency

Gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated by using the specific identification method. We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized fees. 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 gains or losses when gains or losses are realized. Net change in unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency reflects the change in the value of receivables or accruals during the reporting period due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

We follow the guidance in ASC Topic 860 when accounting for loan participations and other partial loan sales. This guidance requires a participation or other partial loan sale to meet the definition of a participating interest, as defined in the guidance, in order for sale treatment to be allowed. Participations or other partial loan sales which do not meet the definition of a participating interest remain on our consolidated balance sheets and the proceeds are recorded as a secured borrowing until the participation or other partial loan sale meets the definition. Secured borrowings are carried at fair value to correspond with the related investments, which are carried at fair value.

Uncertainty in Income Taxes

We evaluate our tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax benefits or liabilities in our 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 taxing authorities. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in our consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we did not incur any interest or penalties.

See Note 2 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein for additional information regarding our significant accounting policies.

Contractual Obligations

We have entered into an agreement with FS/KKR Advisor to provide us with investment advisory and administrative services. Payments for investment advisory services under the FS/KKR Advisor investment advisory agreement are equal to (a) an annual base management fee based on the average weekly value of our gross assets and (b) an incentive fee based on our performance. FS/KKR Advisor is reimbursed for administrative expenses incurred on our behalf. See Note 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein and “—Related Party Transactions—Compensation of the Investment Adviser” for a discussion of these agreements and for the amount of fees and expenses accrued under similar agreements with FB Advisor during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

A summary of our significant contractual payment obligations for the repayment of outstanding indebtedness at June 30, 2018 is as follows:


		Payments Due By Period
	Maturity Date⁽¹⁾	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years

(1)	Amounts outstanding under the financing arrangements will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on the maturity date.

(2)	At June 30, 2018, $83,000 remained unused under the Hamilton Street credit facility

(3)

At June 30, 2018, $263,220 remained unused under the ING credit facility. Amounts outstanding under the ING credit facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on March 16, 2021. Amount includes borrowing in Euros and Canadian dollars. Euro balance outstanding of €41,372 has been converted to U.S. dollars at an exchange rate of €1.00 to $1.17 as of June 30, 2018 to reflect total amount outstanding in U.S. dollars. Canadian dollar balance outstanding of CAD $20,987 has been converted to U.S dollars at an exchange rate of CAD $1.00 to $0.76 as of June 30, 2018 to reflect total amount outstanding in U.S. dollars.

(4)	At June 30, 2018, no amounts remained unused under the financing arrangement.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices.

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, 2018, 69.8% of our portfolio investments (based on fair value) paid variable interest rates, 19.6% paid fixed interest rates, 2.2% were income producing equity or other investments, and the remaining 8.4% consisted of non-income producing equity or other investments. A rise in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to higher interest rates applicable to any variable rate investments we hold and to declines in the value of any fixed rate investments we hold. To the extent that a substantial portion of our investments may be in variable rate investments, an increase in interest rates beyond this threshold would make it easier for us to meet or exceed the hurdle rate applicable to the subordinated incentive fee on income, and may result in a substantial increase in our net investment income and to the amount of incentive fees payable to FS/KKR Advisor with respect to our increased pre-incentive fee net investment income.

Pursuant to the terms of the Hamilton Street credit facility, ING credit facility and Locust Street credit facility, we borrow at a floating rate based on a benchmark interest rate. Under the indenture governing the 4.000% notes, the 4.250% notes and the 4.750% notes, we pay interest to the holders of such notes at a fixed rate. To the extent that any present or future credit facilities or other financing arrangements that we or any of our subsidiaries enter into are based on a floating interest rate, we will be subject to risks relating to changes in market interest rates. In periods of rising interest rates when we or our subsidiaries have such debt outstanding, or financing arrangements in effect, our interest expense would increase, which could reduce our net investment income, especially to the extent we hold fixed rate investments.

The following table shows the effect over a twelve month period of changes in interest rates on our interest income, interest expense and net interest income, assuming no changes in the composition of our investment portfolio, including the accrual status of our investments, and our financing arrangements in effect as of June 30, 2018 (dollar amounts are presented in thousands):


Basis Point Change in Interest Rates	Increase (Decrease) in Interest Income⁽¹⁾			Increase (Decrease) in Interest Expense			Increase (Decrease) in Net Interest Income			Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
Down 100 basis points	$	(24,165	)	$	(4,805	)	$	(19,360	)		(6.5	)%
No change		—			—			—			—
Up 100 basis points		25,060			4,805			20,255			6.8	%
Up 300 basis points		75,968			14,414			61,554			20.6	%
Up 500 basis points		127,082			24,024			103,058			34.4	%

(1)	Assumes no defaults or prepayments by portfolio companies over the next twelve months.

We expect that our long-term investments will be financed primarily with equity and debt. If deemed prudent, we may use interest rate risk management techniques in an effort to minimize our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. These techniques may include various interest rate hedging activities to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act. Adverse developments resulting from changes in interest rates or hedging transactions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we did not engage in interest rate hedging activities.

In addition, we may have risk regarding portfolio valuation. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies—Valuation of Portfolio Investments.”

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2018.

Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that we would meet our disclosure obligations.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three month period ended June 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is 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. While the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors.

You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as supplemented by our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, and in our registration statement on Form N-14 (filed on July 30, 2018).

Item 2.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

In February 2018, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program. Under the program, we may repurchase up to $50 million in the aggregate of our outstanding common stock in the open market at prices below the then-current net asset value per share. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by us, in our discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, our stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. The program went into effect on March 28, 2018 and will be in effect through February 21, 2019, unless extended or until the aggregate repurchase amount that has been approved by our board of directors has been expended. The program does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares. The program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time. As of August 8, 2018, we had repurchased a total of 6,230,651 shares our common stock at an average price per share (inclusive of commissions paid) of $7.61 (totaling $47.4 million).

Repurchases of our common stock under our stock repurchase program for the periods below were as follows (dollar amounts in the table below are presented in thousands, except for share and per share amounts).


Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased		Average Price Paid per Share⁽¹⁾		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs		Maximum Number (or Approximate Dollar Value) of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs
