CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as may, will, should, expect, anticipate, project, target, estimate, intend, continue or believe or the negatives of, or other variations on, these terms or comparable terminology. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our plans, strategies, prospects and expectations concerning our business, operating results, financial condition and other similar matters. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. Our forward-looking statements include information in this report regarding general domestic and global economic conditions, our future financing plans, our ability to operate as a business development company (BDC) and the expected performance of, and the yield on, our portfolio companies. There may be events in the future, however, that we are not able to predict accurately or control. The factors listed under Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as well as any cautionary language in this report, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. The occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this report could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this report speaks only as of the date of this report. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ from our forward-looking statements may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), including annual reports on Form 10-K, registration statements on Form N-2, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. Under Section 21E(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to statements made in periodic reports we file under the Exchange Act, such as this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements:
| our future operating results; |
| changes in political, economic or industry conditions, the interest rate environment or conditions affecting the financial and capital markets; |
| uncertainty surrounding the financial and political stability of the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and China; |
| our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies; |
| the impact of investments that we expect to make; |
| the impact of increased competition; |
| our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties; |
| the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest; |
| the ability of our current and prospective portfolio companies to achieve their objectives; |
| the relative and absolute performance of our investment adviser; |
| our expected financings and investments; |
| the use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments; |
| our ability to make distributions; |
| the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; |
| the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies; |
| the impact of future acquisitions and divestitures; |
| the effect of changes in tax laws and regulations and interpretations thereof; |
| our ability to maintain our status as a BDC and a regulated investment company (RIC) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code); |
| actual and potential conflicts of interest with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. and its affiliates; |
| general price and volume fluctuations in the stock market; |
| the ability of our investment adviser to attract and retain highly talented professionals; |
| the impact on our business from new or amended legislation or regulations; |
| the availability of credit and/or our ability to access the equity and capital markets; and |
| currency fluctuations, particularly to the extent that we receive payments denominated in foreign currency rather than U.S. dollars. |

(+) | The Consolidated Schedule of Investments discloses the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR (L) or alternate base rate (commonly based on the Prime Rate (P)), at the borrowers option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. L loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month or 1 week L rates. As of March 31, 2019, rates for the 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month and 1 week L are 2.71%, 2.66%, 2.60%, 2.56%, 2.49% and 2.42%, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, P was 5.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at March 31, 2019. |

(+) | The Consolidated Schedule of Investments discloses the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR (L) or alternate base rate (commonly based on the Prime Rate (P)), at the borrowers option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. L loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month or 1 week L rates. As of December 31, 2018, rates for the 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month and 1 week L are 3.01%, 2.88%, 2.81%, 2.61%, 2.50% and 2.41%, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, P was 5.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2018. |

Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
1. | ORGANIZATION |
Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. (the Company, which term refers to either Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. or Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, as the context may require) was initially established as Goldman Sachs Liberty Harbor Capital, LLC, a single member Delaware limited liability company (SMLLC), on September 26, 2012 and commenced operations on November 15, 2012 with The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (Group Inc.) as its sole member. On March 29, 2013, the Company elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the Investment Company Act). Effective April 1, 2013, the Company converted from a SMLLC to a Delaware corporation. In addition, the Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (RIC) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013.
The Companys investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through direct originations of secured debt, including first lien, unitranche, including last-out portions of such loans, and second lien debt, and unsecured debt, including mezzanine debt, as well as through select equity investments.
Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (GSAM), a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (including its predecessors, GS & Co.), is the investment adviser (the Investment Adviser) of the Company. The term Goldman Sachs refers to Group Inc., together with GS & Co., GSAM and its other subsidiaries.
On March 23, 2015, the Company completed its initial public offering (IPO) and the Companys common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol GSBD.
The Company has formed wholly owned subsidiaries, which are structured as Delaware limited liability companies, to hold certain equity or equity-like investments in portfolio companies.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of Presentation
The Companys functional currency is U.S. dollars (USD) and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and pursuant to Regulation S-X. This requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These consolidated financial statements reflect normal and recurring adjustments that in the opinion of the Company are necessary for the fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions included in the consolidated financial statements.
Certain financial information that is included in annual consolidated financial statements, including certain financial statement disclosures, prepared in accordance with GAAP, is not required for interim reporting purposes and has been condensed or omitted herein. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto for the year ended December 31, 2018, included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on February 28, 2019. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year, any other interim period or any future year or period.
Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassification has no effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or the consolidated results of operations as previously reported.
As an investment company, the Company applies the accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946, Financial Services Investment Companies (ASC 946) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).
Basis of Consolidation
As provided under ASC 946, the Company will not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the financial position and results of operations of its wholly owned subsidiaries, BDC Blocker I, LLC (formerly known as My-On BDC Blocker, LLC), GSBD Blocker II, LLC and GSBD Wine I, LLC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
18
The Company does not consolidate its equity interest in Senior Credit Fund, LLC (the Senior Credit Fund). For further description of the Companys investment in the Senior Credit Fund, see Note 4 Investments.
Revenue Recognition
The Company records its investment transactions on a trade date basis, which is the date when the Company assumes the risks for gains and losses related to that instrument. Realized gains and losses are based on the specific identification method.
Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts and premiums to par value on investments purchased are accreted and amortized, respectively, into interest income over the life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees, original issue discount (OID) and market discounts or premiums are capitalized and amortized into interest income using the effective interest method or straight-line method, as applicable. Exit fees that are receivable upon repayment of a loan or debt security are amortized into interest income over the life of the respective investment. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company earned $646 and $476, respectively, in prepayment premiums and $1,037 and $833, respectively, in accelerated accretion of upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts.
Fees received from portfolio companies (directors fees, consulting fees, administrative fees, tax advisory fees and other similar compensation) are paid to the Company, unless, to the extent required by applicable law or exemptive relief, if any, therefrom, the Company only receives its allocable portion of such fees when invested in the same portfolio company as another account managed by the Investment Adviser.
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Interest and dividend income are presented net of withholding tax, if any.
Certain investments may have contractual payment-in-kind (PIK) interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the principal amount or shares (if equity) of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon the investment being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable. If at any point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, respectively.
Certain structuring fees, amendment fees and syndication fees are recorded as other income when earned. Administrative agent fees received by the Company are recorded as other income when the services are rendered over time.
Non-Accrual Investments
Investments are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal, interest or dividends will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Accrued interest or dividends generally are reversed when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest or dividend payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon managements judgment. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest or dividends are paid and, in managements judgment, principal and interest or dividend payments are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this treatment if an investment has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had certain investments held in three portfolio companies on non-accrual status, which represented 4.5% and 3.5% of the total investments at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had certain investments held in three portfolio companies on non-accrual status, which represented 8.3% and 7.0% of the total investments at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively.
Investments
The Company carries its investments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820), issued by the FASB, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is generally based on quoted market prices provided by independent pricing services, broker or dealer quotations or alternative price sources. In the absence of quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative price sources, investments are measured at fair value as determined by the board of directors (the Board of Directors) within the meaning of the Investment Company Act.
Due to the inherent uncertainties of valuation, certain estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been realized had a ready market for these investments existed, and these differences could be material. See Note 5 Fair Value Measurement.
19
The Company generally invests in illiquid securities, including debt and equity investments, of middle-market companies. The Board of Directors has delegated to the Investment Adviser day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Companys portfolio investments. Under valuation procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, market quotations are generally used to assess the value of the investments for which market quotations are readily available. The Investment Adviser obtains these market quotations from independent pricing services or at the bid prices obtained from at least two brokers or dealers, if available; otherwise from a principal market maker or a primary market dealer. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, the Investment Adviser regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to independent pricing services or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the valuation procedures. If the Board of Directors or Investment Adviser has a bona fide reason to believe any such market quotation does not reflect the fair value of an investment, it may independently value such investment in accordance with valuation procedures for investments for which market quotations are not readily available.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or for which market quotations are deemed not reflective of the fair value, the valuation procedures adopted by the Board of Directors contemplate a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
(1) | The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment; |
(2) | The Board of Directors also engages independent valuation firms (the Independent Valuation Advisors) to provide independent valuations of the investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of an investment. The Independent Valuation Advisors independently value such investments using quantitative and qualitative information provided by the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser and the portfolio companies as well as any market quotations obtained from independent pricing services, brokers, dealers or market dealers. The Independent Valuation Advisors also provide analyses to support their valuation methodology and calculations. The Independent Valuation Advisors provide an opinion on a final range of values on such investments to the Board of Directors or the Audit Committee. The Independent Valuation Advisors define fair value in accordance with ASC 820 and utilize valuation approaches including the market approach, the income approach or both. A portion of the portfolio is reviewed on a quarterly basis, and all investments in the portfolio for which market quotations are not readily available, or are readily available, but deemed not reflective of the fair value of an investment, are reviewed at least annually by an Independent Valuation Advisor; |
(3) | The Independent Valuation Advisors preliminary valuations are reviewed by the Investment Adviser and the Valuation Oversight Group (VOG), a team that is part of the Controllers Department within the Finance Division of Goldman Sachs. The Independent Valuation Advisors valuation ranges are compared to the Investment Advisers valuations to ensure the Investment Advisers valuations are reasonable. VOG presents the valuations to the Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group of the Investment Management Division Valuation Committee, which is comprised of representatives from GSAM who are independent of the investment decision making process; |
(4) | The Investment Management Division Valuation Committee ratifies fair valuations and makes recommendations to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors; |
(5) | The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews valuation information provided by the Investment Management Division Valuation Committee, the Investment Adviser and the Independent Valuation Advisors. The Audit Committee then assesses such valuation recommendations; and |
(6) | The Board of Directors discusses the valuations and, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, determines the fair value of the investments in good faith, based on the inputs of the Investment Adviser, the Independent Valuation Advisors and the Audit Committee. |
Money Market Funds
Investments in money market funds are valued at net asset value (NAV) per share. See Note 3 Significant Agreements and Related Party Transactions.
Cash
Cash consists of deposits held at a custodian bank. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company held an aggregate cash balance of $5,891 and $6,113, respectively. Foreign currency of $368 and $257 (acquisition cost of $375 and $255) is included in cash as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation
Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USD on the following basis: (i) investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USD based upon currency exchange rates effective on the last business day of the period; and (ii) purchases and sales of investments, borrowings and repayments of such borrowings, income, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USD based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.
The Company does not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included within the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments. Fluctuations arising from the translation of non-investment assets and liabilities are included with the net change in unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency translations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
20
Foreign security and currency translations may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.
Derivatives
Foreign currency forward contracts
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the Companys exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies. In a foreign currency forward contract, the Company agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market at the applicable forward rate. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts are recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities by counterparty on a net basis, not taking into account collateral posted which is recorded separately, if applicable. Notional amounts of foreign currency forward contract assets and liabilities are presented separately on the Consolidated Schedules of Investments. Purchases and settlements of foreign currency forward contracts having the same settlement date and counterparty are generally settled net and any realized gains or losses are recognized on the settlement date.
The Company does not utilize hedge accounting and as such, the Company recognizes its derivatives at fair value with changes in the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes tax positions in its consolidated financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. A position that meets this standard is measured at the largest amount of benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon settlement. The Company reports any interest expense related to income tax matters in income tax expense, and any income tax penalties under expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Companys tax positions have been reviewed based on applicable statutes of limitation for tax assessments, which may vary by jurisdiction, and based on such review, the Company has concluded that no additional provision for income tax is required in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is subject to potential examination by certain taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. The Companys tax positions are subject to ongoing interpretation of laws and regulations by taxing authorities.
The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it will generally not be required to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as dividends. As a result, any U.S. federal income tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Companys stockholders and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
To maintain its tax treatment as a RIC, the Company must meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders for each taxable year at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (generally, its net ordinary income plus the excess of its realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction). In order for the Company not to be subject to U.S. federal excise taxes, it must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any net ordinary income and capital gains in excess of capital losses for preceding years that were not distributed during such years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on this income. If the Company chooses to do so, this generally would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to stockholders. The Company will accrue excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income as required. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company accrued excise taxes of $442 and $285, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $625 of accrued excise taxes remained payable.
Certain of the Companys consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. Income tax expense, if any, is included under the income category for which it applies in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company accrued provision for taxes on realized gains on investments of $0 and $447, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company accrued provision for taxes on unrealized gains on investments of $(204) and $0, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $518 of income taxes remained payable.
21
Distributions
Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company may pay distributions in excess of its taxable net investment income. This excess would be a tax-free return of capital in the period and reduce the stockholders tax basis in its shares. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent they are charged or credited to paid-in capital in excess of par, accumulated undistributed net investment income or accumulated net realized gain (loss), as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Temporary and permanent differences are primarily attributable to differences in the tax treatment of certain loans and the tax characterization of income and non-deductible expenses. These differences are generally determined in conjunction with the preparation of the Companys annual RIC tax return. Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Board of Directors each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by the Investment Adviser. The Company may pay distributions to its stockholders in a year in excess of its net ordinary income and capital gains for that year and, accordingly, a portion of such distributions may constitute a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company intends to timely distribute to its stockholders substantially all of its annual taxable income for each year, except that the Company may retain certain net capital gains for reinvestment and carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following year and pay any applicable tax. The specific tax characteristics of the Companys distributions will be reported to stockholders after the end of the calendar year. All distributions will be subject to available funds, and no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to declare such distributions in future periods.
The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of all cash distributions declared by the Board of Directors unless a stockholder elects to opt out of the plan. As a result, if the Board of Directors declares a cash distribution, then the stockholders who have not opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will generally be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions and, for this purpose, stockholders receiving distributions in the form of stock will generally be treated as receiving distributions equal to the fair market value of the stock received through the plan; however, since their cash distributions will be reinvested, those stockholders will not receive cash with which to pay any applicable taxes. Due to regulatory considerations, Group Inc. has opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan, and GS & Co. has opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan in respect of shares of the Companys common stock acquired through its 10b5-1 plan.
Deferred Financing and Debt Issuance Costs
Deferred financing and debt issuance costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of and amendments to the Companys senior secured revolving credit agreement (as amended, the Revolving Credit Facility) with SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent, and the offering of the Companys 4.50% Convertible Notes due 2022 (the Convertible Notes). These costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the respective term of the Revolving Credit Facility and Convertible Notes. Deferred financing costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility are presented separately as an asset on the Companys Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferred debt issuance costs related to the Convertible Notes are presented net against the outstanding debt balance on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Deferred Offering Costs
The Company records expenses related to registration statement filings and applicable offering costs as deferred offering costs. To the extent such expenses relate to equity offerings, these expenses are charged as a reduction of paid-in-capital upon each such offering.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2018, the U.S Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted the final rule under SEC release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, amending certain disclosure requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. The Company is no longer required to present components of distributable earnings on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities or the sources of distributable earnings and the amount of undistributed net investment income on the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation and this had no effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or the consolidated results of operations as previously reported. The following provides the prior period reclassifications.
Consolidated Statements of Changes in Net Assets The table below provides a reconciliation for previously disclosed distributions from net investment income and realized gain for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to distributions from distributable earnings as disclosed in the current filing.

3. | SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
Investment Management Agreement
The Company has entered into an investment management agreement (as amended and restated as of June 15, 2018, the Investment Management Agreement) with the Investment Adviser, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser manages the Companys investment program and related activities.
Management Fee
The Company pays the Investment Adviser a management fee (the Management Fee), accrued and payable quarterly in arrears. The Management Fee is calculated at (i) an annual rate of 1.50% (0.375% per quarter) (the Original Rate) through June 14, 2018 and (ii) an annual rate of 1.00% (0.25% per quarter) (the New Rate) thereafter, in each case, of the average value of the Companys gross assets (excluding cash or cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts) at the end of each of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. The Management Fee for any partial quarter (including any quarter during which both the Original Rate and the New Rate were in effect) will be appropriately prorated based on the actual number of days elapsed relative to the total number of days in such calendar quarter.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 Management Fees amounted to $3,536 and $4,803, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $3,536 remained payable.
Incentive Fee
The incentive fee (the Incentive Fee) consists of two components that are determined independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. Effective as of January 1, 2015, the Incentive Fee is calculated as follows:
A portion of the Incentive Fee is based on income and a portion is based on capital gains, each as described below. The Investment Adviser is entitled to receive the Incentive Fee based on income if Ordinary Income (as defined below) exceeds a quarterly hurdle rate of 1.75%. For this purpose, the hurdle is computed by reference to the Companys NAV and does not take into account changes in the market price of the Companys common stock.
The Incentive Fee based on income is determined and paid quarterly in arrears at the end of each calendar quarter by reference to the Companys aggregate net investment income, as adjusted as described below, from the calendar quarter then ending and the eleven preceding calendar quarters (or if shorter, the number of quarters that have occurred since January 1, 2015) (such period the Trailing Twelve Quarters). The Incentive Fee based on capital gains is determined and paid annually in arrears at the end of each calendar year by reference to an Annual Period, which means the period beginning on January 1 of each calendar year and ending on December 31 of such calendar year or, in the case of the first and last year, the appropriate portion thereof.
The hurdle amount for the Incentive Fee based on income is determined on a quarterly basis and is equal to 1.75% multiplied by the Companys NAV at the beginning of each applicable calendar quarter comprising the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters. The hurdle amount is calculated after making appropriate adjustments for subscriptions (which includes all of the Companys issuances of shares of its common stock, including issuances pursuant to its dividend reinvestment plan) and distributions that occurred during the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters. The Incentive Fee for any partial period will be appropriately prorated.
i. Quarterly Incentive Fee Based on Income
For the portion of the Incentive Fee based on income, the Company pays the Investment Adviser a quarterly Incentive Fee based on the amount by which (A) aggregate net investment income (Ordinary Income) in respect of the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters exceeds (B) the hurdle amount for such Trailing Twelve Quarters. The amount of the excess of (A) over (B) described in this paragraph for such Trailing Twelve Quarters is referred to as the Excess Income Amount. Ordinary Income is net of all fees and expenses, including the Management Fee but excluding any Incentive Fee.
The Incentive Fee based on income for each quarter is determined as follows:
| No Incentive Fee based on income is payable to the Investment Adviser for any calendar quarter for which there is no Excess Income Amount; |
23
| 100% of the Ordinary Income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle amount, but is less than or equal to an amount, referred to as the Catch-up Amount, determined as the sum of 2.1875% multiplied by the Companys NAV at the beginning of each applicable calendar quarter comprising the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters is included in the calculation of the Incentive Fee based on income; and |
| 20% of the Ordinary Income that exceeds the Catch-up Amount is included in the calculation of the Incentive Fee based on income. |
The amount of the Incentive Fee based on income that is paid to the Investment Adviser for a particular quarter equals the excess of the Incentive Fee so calculated minus the aggregate Incentive Fees based on income that were paid in respect of the first eleven calendar quarters (or the portion thereof) included in the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters but not in excess of the Incentive Fee Cap (as described below).
The Incentive Fee based on income that is paid to the Investment Adviser for a particular quarter is subject to a cap (the Incentive Fee Cap). The Incentive Fee Cap for any quarter is an amount equal to (a) 20% of the Cumulative Net Return (as defined below) during the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters minus (b) the aggregate Incentive Fees based on income that were paid in respect of the first eleven calendar quarters (or the portion thereof) included in the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters.
Cumulative Net Return means (x) the Ordinary Income in respect of the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters minus (y) any Net Capital Loss, if any, in respect of the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters. If, in any quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value, the Company pays no Incentive Fee based on income to the Investment Adviser for such quarter. If, in any quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter is a positive value but is less than the Incentive Fee based on income that is payable to the Investment Adviser for such quarter (before giving effect to the Incentive Fee Cap) calculated as described above, the Company pays an Incentive Fee based on income to the Investment Adviser equal to the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter. If, in any quarter, the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter is equal to or greater than the Incentive Fee based on income that is payable to the Investment Adviser for such quarter (before giving effect to the Incentive Fee Cap) calculated as described above, the Company pays an Incentive Fee based on income to the Investment Adviser equal to the Incentive Fee calculated as described above for such quarter without regard to the Incentive Fee Cap.
Net Capital Loss in respect of a particular period means the difference, if positive, between (i) aggregate capital losses, whether realized or unrealized, in such period and (ii) aggregate capital gains, whether realized or unrealized, in such period.
ii. Annual Incentive Fee Based on Capital Gains.
The portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains is calculated on an annual basis. For each Annual Period, the Company pays the Investment Adviser an amount equal to (A) 20% of the difference, if positive, of the sum of the Companys aggregate realized capital gains, if any, computed net of the Companys aggregate realized capital losses, if any, and the Companys aggregate unrealized capital depreciation, in each case from April 1, 2013 until the end of such Annual Period minus (B) the cumulative amount of Incentive Fees based on capital gains previously paid to the Investment Adviser from April 1, 2013. For the avoidance of doubt, unrealized capital appreciation is excluded from the calculation in clause (A) above.
The Company accrues, but does not pay, a portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains with respect to net unrealized appreciation. Under GAAP, the Company is required to accrue an Incentive Fee based on capital gains that includes net realized capital gains and losses and net unrealized capital appreciation and depreciation on investments held at the end of each period. In calculating the accrual for the Incentive Fee based on capital gains, the Company considers the cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation in the calculation, since an Incentive Fee based on capital gains would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee payable under the Investment Management Agreement. This accrual is calculated using the aggregate cumulative realized capital gains and losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. If such amount is positive at the end of a period, then the Company records a capital gains incentive fee equal to 20% of such amount, minus the aggregate amount of actual Incentive Fees based on capital gains paid in all prior periods. If such amount is negative, then there is no accrual for such period. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred Incentive Fees based on income of $493 and $4,684, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $493 remained payable. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not accrue or pay any Incentive Fees based on capital gains.
Administration and Custodian Fees
The Company has entered into an administration agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Administrator) under which the Administrator provides various accounting and administrative services to the Company. The Company pays the Administrator fees for its services as it determines to be commercially reasonable in its sole discretion. The Company also reimburses the Administrator for all reasonable expenses. To the extent that the Administrator outsources any of its functions, the Administrator pays any compensation associated with such functions. The Administrator also serves as the Companys custodian (the Custodian).
For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Administrator and the Custodian of $237 and $227, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $234 remained payable.
24
Transfer Agent Fees
Effective May 2, 2016, the Company entered into a transfer agency and services agreement pursuant to which Computershare Trust Company, N.A. serves as the Companys transfer agent (the Transfer Agent), dividend agent and registrar. From the IPO to May 1, 2016, State Street Bank and Trust Company served as the Transfer Agent and dividend agent. Prior to the IPO, GS & Co. was the Transfer Agent. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Transfer Agent of $3 and $4, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $3 remained payable.
Common Stock Repurchase Plans
In February 2016, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $25,000 of the Companys common stock if the stock trades below the most recently announced NAV per share (including any updates, corrections or adjustments publicly announced by the Company to any previously announced NAV per share), from March 18, 2016 to March 18, 2017, subject to certain limitations. In February 2017, the Companys Board of Directors renewed its authorization of the stock repurchase plan to extend the expiration to March 18, 2018, in February 2018, again renewed its authorization of the stock repurchase plan to extend the expiration to March 18, 2019 and, in February 2019, again renewed its authorization of the stock repurchase plan to extend the expiration to March 18, 2020.
In connection with this authorization, the Company entered into a 10b5-1 plan (the Company 10b5-1 Plan). The Company 10b5-1 Plan initially took effect on March 18, 2016 (with any purchases to commence after the opening of NYSE trading on March 21, 2016), was subsequently renewed and expired on March 18, 2018. The Company entered into an agreement to renew the Company 10b5-1 Plan on May 14, 2018, which was terminated on June 27, 2018 in connection with the Companys offering of Convertible Notes. See Notes 6 Debt. On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to renew the Company 10b5-1 Plan with any purchases pursuant to the agreement to commence on September 25, 2018. The Company 10b5-1 Plan expired on March 18, 2019.
In February 2019, our Board of Directors approved a new common stock repurchase plan (the New Company 10b5-1 Plan), which provides for us to repurchase up to $25,000 of shares of our common stock if the stock trades below the most recently announced net asset value per share, subject to limitations. Under the New Company 10b5-1 Plan, no purchases will be made if such purchases would (i) cause the aggregate ownership of our outstanding stock by Group Inc. and GS & Co. to equal or exceed 25.0% (due to the reduction in outstanding shares of stock as a result of purchase) or (ii) cause our Debt/Equity Ratio to exceed the lower of (a) 1.40 or (b) the Maximum Debt/Equity Ratio. In the New Company 10b5-1 Plan, Debt/Equity Ratio means the sum of debt on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the total notional value of the Purchasers unfunded commitments divided by 85% of total equity, as of the most recent reported financial statement end date, and Maximum Debt/Equity Ratio means the sum of debt on the balance sheet and committed uncalled debt divided by net assets, as of the most recent reported financial statement end date. The New Company 10b5-1 Plan took effect on March 18, 2019, expires on March 18, 2020 and purchases thereunder will be conducted on a programmatic basis in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Exchange Act and other applicable securities laws.
The Companys repurchase of its common stock under the New Company 10b5-1 Plan or otherwise may result in the price of the Companys common stock being higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not repurchase any of its common stock pursuant to the Company 10b5-1 Plan, the New Company 10b5-1 Plan or otherwise.

Co-investment Activity
In certain circumstances, negotiated co-investments by the Company and other funds managed by the Investment Adviser may be made only pursuant to an order from the SEC permitting the Company to do so. On January 4, 2017, the Company and GSAM, Goldman Sachs Private Middle Market Credit LLC (GS PMMC) and Goldman Sachs Middle Market Lending Corp. (GS MMLC) received exemptive relief (Exemptive Relief) that permits the Company to co-invest with GS PMMC, GS MMLC and certain other funds that may be managed by GSAM, including the GSAM Credit Alternatives Team, after the date of the exemptive order, subject to certain conditions including that co-investments are made in a manner consistent with the Companys investment objectives, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions, as well as regulatory requirements and pursuant to the conditions required by the Exemptive Relief, and are allocated fairly among participants. The GSAM Credit Alternatives Team is comprised of investment professionals dedicated to the Companys investment strategy and other funds that share a similar investment strategy with the Company, who are responsible for identifying investment opportunities, conducting research and due diligence on prospective investments, negotiating and structuring the Companys investments and monitoring and servicing the Companys investments, together with investment professionals who are primarily focused on investment strategies in syndicated, liquid credit. Under the terms of the Exemptive Relief, a required majority (as defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act) of the Companys independent directors must make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed transaction are reasonable and fair to the Company and the Companys stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of the Company or its stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of the Companys stockholders and is consistent with the then-current investment objectives and strategies of the Company. As a result of the Exemptive Relief, there could be significant overlap in the Companys investment portfolio and the investment portfolios of GS PMMC, GS MMLC and/or other funds established by the GSAM Credit Alternatives Team that could avail themselves of the Exemptive Relief.

Senior Credit Fund, LLC
The Senior Credit Fund, an unconsolidated Delaware limited liability company, was formed on May 7, 2014 and commenced operations on October 1, 2014. The Company invests together with Cal Regents through the Senior Credit Fund. The Senior Credit Funds principal purpose is to make investments, either directly or indirectly through its wholly owned subsidiary, Senior Credit Fund SPV I, LLC (SPV I), primarily in senior secured loans to middle-market companies. Each of the Company and Cal Regents are responsible for sourcing the Senior Credit Funds investments. Each of the Company and Cal Regents has a 50% economic ownership in the Senior Credit Fund and each has subscribed to fund $100,000. Except under certain circumstances, contributions to the Senior Credit Fund cannot be redeemed. The Senior Credit Fund is managed by a six member board of managers, on which the Company and Cal Regents have equal representation. Investment decisions generally must be unanimously approved by a quorum of the board of managers. On August 24, 2018, the Company and Cal Regents, as the Members of the Senior Credit Fund, entered into an amendment to the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of the Senior Credit Fund to extend the investment period to December 19, 2018.
28
On February 27, 2019, the board of managers of the Senior Credit Fund authorized the liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Senior Credit Fund and the pro-rata distribution of its assets and liabilities to the members of the Senior Credit Fund. Following the distribution of underlying assets and liabilities held by the Senior Credit Fund to its members, including the Company, the pro-rata portion of such assets and liabilities received by the Company will become assets and liabilities of the Company and will be directly included in its consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and will also be included for purposes of determining the Companys asset coverage ratio. There can be no assurance that the liquidation of the Senior Credit Fund and related transactions will be effectuated, and such transactions will remain subject to any requisite approvals.
On December 19, 2016, SPV I entered into an amended and restated credit facility (as amended, the Asset Based Facility), which consists of a revolving credit facility (the SPV I Revolving Credit Facility), a term loan facility (the SPV I Term Loan Facility) and a Class B loan facility (the SPV I Class B Facility), with various lenders. For the Asset Based Facility, Natixis, New York Branch (Natixis) serves as the facility agent, and State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the collateral agent. The SPV I Revolving Credit Facility provided for borrowings in an aggregate amount of $19,550 as of March 31, 2019. Borrowings under the SPV I Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.30%. As of March 31, 2019, the SPV I Term Loan Facility consisted of a $228,873 term loan and the SPV I Class B Facility consisted of a $40,000 Class B loan. Borrowings under the SPV I Term Loan Facility and SPV I Class B Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.30% and LIBOR plus 3.50%, respectively. Any amounts borrowed under the Asset Based Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on December 19, 2025. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the SPV Is aggregated outstanding borrowings under the Asset Based Facility were $288,423 and $300,500, respectively.
As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company and Cal Regents had subscribed to fund and contributed the following to the Senior Credit Fund:

(+) | The terms in the Schedule above disclose the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR (L) or alternate base rate (commonly based on the Prime Rate (P)), at the borrowers option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. L loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month or 1 week L rates. As of March 31, 2019, rates for the 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month and 1 week L are 2.71%, 2.66%, 2.60%, 2.56%, 2.49% and 2.42%, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, P was 5.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at March 31, 2019. |
(1) | Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. |

(+) | The terms in the Schedule above disclose the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR (L) or alternate base rate (commonly based on the Prime Rate (P)), at the borrowers option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. L loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month or 1 week L rates. As of December 31, 2018, rates for the 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month and 1 week L are 3.01%, 2.88%, 2.81%, 2.61%, 2.50% and 2.41%, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, P was 5.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2018. |
(1) | Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. |
(2) | The negative cost is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value is the result of the capitalized discount on the loan. |
(3) | The Company also holds a portion of senior secured debt in this portfolio company. |
(4) | The investment is on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2018. |
(5) | In exchange for the greater risk of loss, the last-out portion of the Companys unitranche loan investment generally earns a higher interest rate than the first-out portions. The first-out portion of the loan would generally receive priority with respect to payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder over the last-out portion that the Company would continue to hold. |
(6) | The rate shown is the annualized seven-day yield as of December 31, 2018. |

Loan Origination and Structuring Fees
If the loan origination and structuring fees earned by the Senior Credit Fund (including directly or indirectly through SPV I or another vehicle) during a period exceed the Senior Credit Funds expenses (excluding interest and other debt expenses), such excess is paid as a fee to the Member(s) responsible for the origination of the loans pro rata in accordance with the total loan origination and structuring fees earned by the Senior Credit Fund with respect to the loans originated by such Member. The loan origination and structuring fee is accrued quarterly and included in other income from controlled affiliated investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and paid annually. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not accrue income based on loan origination and structuring fees.
5. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT |
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price).
The fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
34
Basis of Fair Value Measurement
Level 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments included in Level 1 include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets.
Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments in this category include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets, government and agency securities and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.
Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments that are included in this category include investments in privately held entities and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.
A financial instruments level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies should be read in conjunction with the information outlined below.
The table below presents the valuation techniques and the nature of significant inputs generally used in determining the fair value of Level 2 Instruments.
Level 2 Instruments | Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs | |
Equity and Fixed Income | The types of instruments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active but are valued based on quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency include commercial paper, most government agency obligations, most corporate debt securities, certain mortgage-backed securities, certain bank loans, less liquid publicly listed equities, certain state and municipal obligations, certain money market instruments and certain loan commitments.
Valuations of Level 2 Equity and Fixed Income instruments can be verified to quoted prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Consideration is given to the nature of the quotations (e.g. indicative or firm) and the relationship of recent market activity to the prices provided from alternative pricing sources. | |
Derivative Contracts | OTC derivatives (both centrally cleared and bilateral) are valued using market transactions and other market evidence whenever possible, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value an OTC derivative depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. The Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence. |
The table below presents the valuation techniques and the nature of significant inputs generally used in determining the fair value of Level 3 Instruments.
Level 3 Instruments | Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs | |
Bank Loans, Corporate Debt, and Other Debt Obligations |
Valuations are generally based on discounted cash flow techniques, for which the significant inputs are the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, market yields and recovery assumptions. The significant inputs are generally determined based on relative value analyses, which incorporate comparisons both to credit default swaps that reference the same underlying credit risk and to other debt instruments for the same issuer for which observable prices or broker quotes are available. Other valuation methodologies are used as appropriate including market comparables, transactions in similar instruments and recovery/liquidation analysis. |
35
Level 3 Instruments | Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs | |
Equity |
Recent third-party investments or pending transactions are considered to be the best evidence for any change in fair value. When these are not available, the following valuation methodologies are used, as appropriate and available: Transactions in similar instruments; Discounted cash flow techniques; Third party appraisals; and Industry multiples and public comparables. Evidence includes recent or pending reorganizations (for example, merger proposals, tender offers and debt restructurings) and significant changes in financial metrics, including: Current financial performance as compared to projected performance; Capitalization rates and multiples; and Market yields implied by transactions of similar or related assets. |
The tables below present the ranges of significant unobservable inputs used to value the Companys Level 3 assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. These ranges represent the significant unobservable inputs that were used in the valuation of each type of instrument, but they do not represent a range of values for any one instrument. For example, the lowest yield in 1st Lien/Senior Secured Debt is appropriate for valuing that specific debt investment, but may not be appropriate for valuing any other debt investments in this asset class. Accordingly, the ranges of inputs presented below do not represent uncertainty in, or possible ranges of, fair value measurements of the Companys Level 3 assets and liabilities.

As noted above, the income and market approaches were used in the determination of fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach are the discount rate or market yield used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which include both future principal and interest payments. An increase in the discount rate or market yield would result in a decrease in the fair value. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates is risk of default, rating of the investment, call provisions and comparable company investments. The significant unobservable inputs used in the market approach are based on market comparable transactions and market multiples of publicly traded comparable companies. Increases or decreases in market comparable transactions or market multiples would result in an increase or decrease, respectively, in the fair value.

The fair value of the Revolving Credit Facility, which would be categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, approximates its carrying value. The fair value of the Companys Convertible Notes, which would be categorized as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $154,709 and $151,125, respectively, based on broker quotes received by the Company.
6. | DEBT |
On June 15, 2018, the Companys stockholders approved the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act to the Company. As a result of this approval, the Company is now permitted to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met), rather than 200%, as previously required. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Companys asset coverage ratio based on the aggregate amount outstanding of senior securities was 197% and 206%, respectively.
The Companys outstanding debt as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was as follows:

Revolving Credit Facility
On September 19, 2013, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Facility with various lenders. SunTrust Bank serves as administrative agent and Bank of America, N.A. serves as syndication agent under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company has amended and restated the Revolving Credit Facility on October 3, 2014, November 3, 2015, December 16, 2016, February 21, 2018 and September 17, 2018.
The aggregate committed borrowing amount under the Revolving Credit Facility is $795,000. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an uncommitted accordion feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the borrowing capacity of the Revolving Credit Facility up to $1,000,000.
Borrowings denominated in USD, including amounts drawn in respect of letters of credit, bear interest (at the Companys election) of either (i) LIBOR plus a margin of either 1.75% or 2.00%, subject to borrowing base conditions or (ii) an alternative base rate, which is the higher of the Prime Rate, Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% or overnight LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus either 0.75% or 1.00%, subject to borrowing base conditions. Borrowings denominated in EUR bear interest (at the companys election) of EUR LIBOR plus a margin of either 1.75% or 2.00%, subject to borrowing base conditions. The Company may elect either the LIBOR, EUR LIBOR, or an alternative base rate at the time of borrowing, and borrowings may be converted from one rate to another at any time, subject to certain conditions. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. The Company pays a fee of 0.375% per annum on committed but undrawn amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears. Any amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on February 21, 2023.
The Revolving Credit Facility may be guaranteed by certain of the Companys domestic subsidiaries, including any that are formed or acquired by the Company in the future (collectively, the Guarantors). The Senior Credit Fund is not a Guarantor of the Revolving Credit Facility. Proceeds from borrowings may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments.
The Companys obligations to the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Companys portfolio of investments and cash, with certain exceptions. The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain covenants, including: (i) maintaining a minimum stockholders equity of $500,000 plus 25% of net proceeds of the sale of equity interests after February 21, 2018, (ii) maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio of at least 150%, (iii) maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio of 200% with respect to the consolidated assets (with certain limitations on the contribution of equity in financing subsidiaries as specified therein) of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors to the secured debt of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors, (iv) maintaining a minimum Company net worth of at least $350,000, (v) maintaining a minimum liquidity test of at least 10% of the covered debt amount during any period when the adjusted covered debt balance is greater than 90% of the adjusted borrowing base, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, and (vi) complying with restrictions on industry concentrations in the Companys investment portfolio. The Company is in compliance with these covenants.
Costs of $12,093 were incurred in connection with obtaining and amending the Revolving Credit Facility, which have been recorded as deferred financing costs on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are being amortized over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility using the straight-line method. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, deferred financing costs were $5,512 and $5,436, respectively.
The summary information of the Revolving Credit Facility for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

Convertible Notes
On October 3, 2016, the Company closed an offering of $115,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured Convertible Notes, which includes $15,000 aggregate principal amount issued pursuant to the initial purchasers exercise in full of an over-allotment option (the Initial Convertible Notes). The sale of the Initial Convertible Notes generated net proceeds of approximately $110,900. The Company used the net proceeds of the offering to pay down debt under the Revolving Credit Facility.
40
On July 2, 2018, the Company closed an additional offering of $40,000 aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes (the Additional Convertible Notes and together with Initial Convertible Notes, the Convertible Notes). The Additional Convertible Notes have identical terms, are fungible with and are part of the Initial Convertible Notes. The sale of the Additional Convertible Notes generated net proceeds of approximately $38,569. The Company used the net proceeds of the offering to pay down debt under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and/or its affiliates provide bank lending and distribution services to certain Goldman Sachs funds. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on April 1, 2017. The Convertible Notes will mature on April 1, 2022, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. In certain circumstances, the Convertible Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of the Companys common stock or a combination of cash and shares of the Companys common stock, based on an initial conversion rate of 40.8397 shares of the Companys common stock per one thousand dollars principal amount of Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $24.49 per share of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments and the other terms of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. The conversion price is approximately 10.0% above the $22.26 per share closing price of the Companys common stock on September 27, 2016 and 16.7% above the $20.99 per share closing price of our common stock on June 26, 2018. The Company will not have the right to redeem the Convertible Notes prior to maturity.
Holders may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding October 1, 2021 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter, if the last reported sale price of the Companys common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price per one thousand dollars principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Companys common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after October 1, 2021, until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any of the foregoing circumstances.
The Convertible Notes are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Upon conversion of any of the Convertible Notes, the Company intends to pay the outstanding principal amount in cash and, to the extent that the conversion value exceeds the principal amount, has the option to pay the excess amount in cash or shares of the Companys common stock (or a combination of cash and shares), subject to the requirements of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. The Company has determined that the embedded conversion options in the Convertible Notes are not required to be separately accounted for as derivatives under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. At the time of issuance the values of the debt and equity components of the Initial Convertible Notes and Additional Convertible Notes were approximately 99.4% and 0.6%, and 97.9% and 2.1%, respectively.
The OID equal to the equity component of the Convertible Notes was recorded in paid-in capital in excess of par in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Company records interest expense comprised of both stated interest and amortization of the OID. At the time of issuance, the equity components of the Initial Convertible Notes and the Additional Convertible Notes were $743 and $836, respectively. Additionally, the issuance costs associated with the Convertible Notes were allocated to the debt and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the values at the time of issuance and accounted for as debt issuance costs and equity issuance costs, respectively.
As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the components of the carrying value of the Convertible Notes were as follows:
March 31, 2019 |

7. | DERIVATIVES |
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to help mitigate the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Companys investments denominated in foreign currencies.
In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Company mitigate its counterparty risk, the Company may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (ISDA Master Agreement) or a similar agreement with its derivative counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Company and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including foreign currency forward contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.
For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Company and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is included in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as due to/due from broker. The Company minimizes counterparty credit risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that they believe to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Companys average USD notional exposure to foreign currency forward contracts was $3,492. The Company did not hold any derivative instruments prior to August 8, 2018.
The following table sets forth the Companys net exposure to foreign currency forward contracts that are subject to ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements as of March 31, 2019.

Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that provide a variety of general indemnifications. Any exposure to the Company under these arrangements could involve future claims that may be made against the Company. Currently, no such claims exist or are expected to arise and, accordingly, the Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnifications.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Concurrent with the IPO, the Company adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of all cash distributions declared by the Board of Directors, unless a stockholder elects to opt out of the plan. As a result, if the Board of Directors declares a cash distribution, then the stockholders who have not opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution.
The following table summarizes shares distributed pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan during the three months ended March 31, 2019 to stockholders who had not opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan:

For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per common share, the average closing price of the Companys common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was less than the conversion price for the Convertible Notes outstanding as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Therefore, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, diluted earnings per share equals basic earnings per share because the underlying shares for the intrinsic value of the embedded options in the Convertible Notes were not dilutive.

Subsequent events after the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated through the date the unaudited consolidated financial statements were issued. Other than the items discussed below, the Company has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
On May 7, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.45 per share payable on July 15, 2019 to holders of record as of June 28, 2019.
On May 8, 2019, the Company and Cal Regents each contributed $125,555 to the Senior Credit Fund, which was used by the Senior Credit Fund to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness, including all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, under the Asset Based Facility and to fund certain other related expenses that the Senior Credit Fund expects to incur in connection with its dissolution. The Asset Based Facility was then terminated and all liens securing the collateral under the Asset Based Facility were released. The Company funded its portion of the contributed amount through additional borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility.
Following the repayment and termination, the Senior Credit Fund distributed each members pro rata share of all of its assets (other than cash and cash equivalents), primarily consisting of senior secured loans, to the members. The Company also assumed the obligation to fund outstanding unfunded commitments of the Senior Credit Fund that totaled $7,795 as of March 31, 2019, representing 50% of the Senior Credit Funds aggregate unfunded commitments. The pro rata portion of the assets received by the Company will become the Companys assets and will be directly included in the Companys consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and will also be included for purposes of determining the Companys asset coverage ratio. Based on March 31, 2019 balances, the assets to be received by the Company are approximately $221,769 and $215,728 at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively.
In connection with the repayment of the Asset Based Facility and the distribution of all of its loan assets, the Senior Credit Fund declared a $2,000 cash distribution to its members, representing estimated quarter-to-date net investment income, 50% of which will be paid to the Company.
The Company and Cal Regents have begun the process of dissolving the Senior Credit Fund. After the satisfaction of all remaining liabilities and the distribution of any remaining assets (including any amounts owed to it and not yet received), the Senior Credit Fund will be wound up and terminated.

OVERVIEW
We are a specialty finance company focused on lending to middle-market companies. We are a closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the Investment Company Act). In addition, we have elected to be treated, and expect to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (RIC) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. From our formation in 2012 through March 31, 2019, we originated more than $3.25 billion in aggregate principal amount of debt and equity investments prior to any subsequent exits and repayments. We seek to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through direct originations of secured debt, including first lien, unitranche, including last-out portions of such loans, and second lien debt, and unsecured debt, including mezzanine debt, as well as through select equity investments.
Unitranche loans are first lien loans that may extend deeper in a companys capital structure than traditional first lien debt and may provide for a waterfall of cash flow priority between different lenders in the unitranche loan. In a number of instances, we may find another lender to provide the first-out portion of such loan and retain the last-out portion of such loan, in which case, the first-out portion of the loan would generally receive priority with respect to payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder over the last-out portion that we would continue to hold. In exchange for the greater risk of loss, the last-out portion generally earns a higher interest rate than the first-out portion. We use the term mezzanine to refer to debt that ranks senior only to a borrowers equity securities and ranks junior in right of payment to all of such borrowers other indebtedness. We may make multiple investments in the same portfolio company.
We invest primarily in U.S. middle-market companies, which we believe are underserved by traditional providers of capital such as banks and the public debt markets. In this report, we generally use the term middle market companies to refer to companies with between $5 million and $200 million of annual earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) excluding certain one-time, and non-recurring items that are outside the operations of these companies. However, we may from time to time invest in larger or smaller companies. We generate revenues primarily through receipt of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate income from various loan origination and other fees, dividends on direct equity investments and capital gains on the sales of investments. Fees received from portfolio companies (directors fees, consulting fees, administrative fees, tax advisory fees and other similar compensation) are paid to us, unless, to the extent required by applicable law or exemptive relief therefrom, we only receive our allocable portion of such fees when invested in the same portfolio company as another client account managed by our Investment Adviser (including Goldman Sachs Private Middle Market Credit LLC (GS PMMC), Goldman Sachs Private Middle Market Credit II LLC (GS PMMC II) and Goldman Sachs Middle Market Lending Corp. (GS MMLC), collectively with other client accounts managed by our Investment Adviser, the Accounts). The companies in which we invest use our capital for a variety of purposes, including to support organic growth, fund acquisitions, make capital investments or refinance indebtedness.
Our origination strategy focuses on leading the negotiation and structuring of the loans or securities in which we invest and holding the investments in our portfolio to maturity. In many cases, we are the sole investor in the loan or security in our portfolio. Where there are multiple investors, we generally seek to control or obtain significant influence over the rights of investors in the loan or security. We generally seek to make investments that have maturities between three and ten years and range in size between $10 million and $75 million, although we may make larger or smaller investments on occasion.
For a discussion of the competitive landscape we face, please see Item 1A. Risk FactorsRisks Relating to Our Business and StructureWe operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities and Item 1. BusinessCompetitive Advantages in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

KEY COMPONENTS OF OPERATIONS
Investments
Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment, the amount of capital we have available to us and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.
As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than qualifying assets specified in the Investment Company Act, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in eligible portfolio companies. Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), eligible portfolio companies include certain companies that do not have any securities listed on a national securities exchange and public companies whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange but whose market capitalization is less than $250 million.
Revenues
We generate revenues in the form of interest income on debt investments and, to a lesser extent, capital gains and distributions, if any, on equity securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. Some of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or payment-in-kind (PIK) income. The principal amount of the debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest generally becomes due at the maturity date.
We generate revenues primarily through receipt of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring, syndication, exit fees or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. Portfolio company fees (directors fees, consulting fees, administrative fees, tax advisory fees and other similar compensation) will be paid to us, unless, to the extent required by applicable law or exemptive relief, if any, therefrom, we receive our allocable portion of such fees when invested in the same portfolio company as other Accounts, which other Accounts could receive their allocable portion of such fee. We do not expect to receive material fee income as it is not our principal investment strategy. We record contractual prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Interest and dividend income are presented net of withholding tax, if any.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of the Management Fee and the Incentive Fee to the Investment Adviser, legal and professional fees, interest and other debt expenses and other operating and overhead related expenses. The Management Fee and Incentive Fee compensate our Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions in accordance with our investment management agreement (as amended and restated as of June 15, 2018, the Investment Management Agreement) and administration agreement (Administration Agreement), including those relating to:
| our operational and organizational expenses; |
| fees and expenses, including travel expenses, incurred by our Investment Adviser or payable to third parties related to our investments, including, among others, professional fees (including the fees and expenses of consultants and experts) and fees and expenses from evaluating, monitoring, researching and performing due diligence on investments and prospective investments; |
| interest payable on debt, if any, incurred to finance our investments; |
| fees and expenses incurred by us in connection with membership in investment company organizations; |
| brokers commissions; |
| the expenses of and fees for registering or qualifying our shares for sale and of maintaining our registration and registering us as a broker or a dealer; |
| fees and expenses associated with calculating our net asset value (NAV) (including the costs and expenses of any independent valuation firm); |
| legal, auditing or accounting expenses; |
| taxes or governmental fees; |
| the fees and expenses of our administrator, transfer agent or sub-transfer agent; |
48
| the cost of preparing stock certificates or any other expenses, including clerical expenses of issue, redemption or repurchase of our shares; |
| the fees and expenses of our directors who are not affiliated with our Investment Adviser; |
| the cost of preparing and distributing reports, proxy statements and notices to our stockholders, the SEC and other regulatory authorities; |
| costs of holding stockholder meetings; |
| listing fees; |
| the fees or disbursements of custodians of our assets, including expenses incurred in the performance of any obligations enumerated by our certificate of incorporation or bylaws insofar as they govern agreements with any such custodian; |
| insurance premiums; and |
| costs incurred in connection with any claim, litigation, arbitration, mediation, government investigation or dispute in connection with our business and the amount of any judgment or settlement paid in connection therewith, or the enforcement of our rights against any person and indemnification or contribution expenses payable by us to any person and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of our business. |
We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines. Costs relating to future offerings of securities would be incremental.
Leverage
Our senior secured revolving credit agreement (as amended, the Revolving Credit Facility) with SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent, and our 4.50% Convertible Notes due 2022 (the Convertible Notes) allow us to borrow money and lever our investment portfolio, subject to the limitations of the Investment Company Act, with the objective of increasing our yield. This is known as leverage and could increase or decrease returns to our stockholders. The use of leverage involves significant risks. On June 15, 2018, our stockholders approved the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act to us. As a result of this approval, we are now permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met), rather than 200%, as previously required. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our asset coverage ratio based on the aggregate amount outstanding of our senior securities was 197% and 206%, respectively.
Certain trading practices and investments, such as reverse repurchase agreements, may be considered borrowings or involve leverage and thus may be subject to Investment Company Act restrictions. In accordance with applicable SEC staff guidance and interpretations, when we engage in such transactions, instead of maintaining an asset coverage ratio of at least 150% (if certain requirements are met), we may segregate or earmark liquid assets, or enter into an offsetting position, in an amount at least equal to our exposure, on a mark-to-market basis, to such transactions (as calculated pursuant to requirements of the SEC). Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered borrowings for these purposes. Practices and investments that may involve leverage but are not considered borrowings are not subject to the Investment Company Acts asset coverage requirement, and we will not otherwise segregate or earmark liquid assets or enter into offsetting positions for such transactions. The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on our Investment Advisers and our board of directors (the Board of Directors) assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing.

As of March 31, 2019, the total portfolio weighted average yield measured at amortized cost and fair value was 9.3% and 9.9%, respectively, which decreased from 9.5% and 10.1%, respectively, at December 31, 2018. Within Second Lien/Senior Secured Debt, the increase in weighted average yield at amortized cost and fair value was primarily driven by the exchange of our second lien investment in ASC Acquisition Holdings, LLC for preferred and common equity.

(5) | For a particular portfolio company, we calculate the level of contractual indebtedness net of cash (net debt) owed by the portfolio company and compare that amount to measures of cash flow available to service the net debt. To calculate net debt, we include debt that is both senior and pari passu to the tranche of debt owned by us but exclude debt that is legally and contractually subordinated in ranking to the debt owned by us. We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of our portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual rights of repayment of the tranche of debt owned by us relative to other senior and junior creditors of a portfolio company. We typically calculate cash flow available for debt service at a portfolio company by taking EBITDA for the trailing twelve month period. Weighted average net debt to EBITDA is weighted based on the fair value of our debt investments and excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue. The weighted average net debt to EBITDA calculation for the Company includes its exposure to underlying debt investments in the Senior Credit Fund. |
50
For a particular portfolio company, we also calculate the level of contractual interest expense owed by the portfolio company, and compare that amount to EBITDA (interest coverage ratio). We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of our portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual interest obligations of the portfolio company. Weighted average interest coverage is weighted based on the fair value of our performing debt investments, including our exposure to underlying debt investments in the Senior Credit Fund and excluding investments where interest coverage may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue. |
Median EBITDA is based on our debt investments, including our exposure to underlying debt investments in the Senior Credit Fund and excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue. |
Portfolio company statistics are derived from the most recently available financial statements of each portfolio company as of the reported end date. Statistics of the portfolio companies have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. |
As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk represented 20.0% and 18.3%, respectively, of total debt investments, including our investment in the Senior Credit Fund, at fair value. Portfolio company statistics are derived from the most recently available financial statements of each portfolio company as of the respective reported end date. Portfolio company statistics have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. |
Floating rates are primarily London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a spread.
Our Investment Adviser monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if it is meeting its respective business plan and to assess the appropriate course of action for each company. Our Investment Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:
| assessment of success in adhering to the portfolio companys business plan and compliance with covenants; |
| periodic or regular contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments; |
| comparisons to our other portfolio companies in the industry, if any; |
| attendance at and participation in board meetings or presentations by portfolio companies; and |
| review of monthly and quarterly financial statements and financial projections of portfolio companies. |
As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Adviser also employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Investment Adviser grades the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 4 no less frequently than quarterly. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (e.g., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account under certain circumstances the performance of the portfolio companys business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The grading system is as follows:
| investments with a grade of 1 involve the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The trends and risk factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally favorable, which may include the performance of the portfolio company or a potential exit; |
| investments with a grade of 2 involve a level of risk to our initial cost basis that is similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination or acquisition. This portfolio company is generally performing as expected and the risk factors to our ability to ultimately recoup the cost of our investment are neutral to favorable. All investments or acquired investments in new portfolio companies are initially assessed a grade of 2; |
| investments with a grade of 3 indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has increased materially since origination or acquisition, including as a result of factors such as declining performance and non-compliance with debt covenants; however, payments are generally not more than 120 days past due; and |
| investments with a grade of 4 indicate that the risk to our ability to recoup the initial cost basis of such investment has substantially increased since origination or acquisition, and the portfolio company likely has materially declining performance. For debt investments with an investment grade of 4, in most cases, most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. For investments graded 4, it is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis upon exit. |
51
Our Investment Adviser grades the investments in our portfolio at least quarterly and it is possible that the grade of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments graded 3 or 4, our Investment Adviser enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company.

The decrease in investments with a grade 4 investment performance rating as of March 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 was primarily due to investments with an aggregate fair value of $39.58 million as of December 31, 2018 being exchanged for common and preferred equity, partially offset by one investments with an aggregate fair value of $0.94 million being downgraded from grade 3 investment performance rating as a result of being placed on non-accrual status due to financial underperformance. The increase in investments with a grade 3 investment performance rating as of March 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 was driven by investments with an aggregate fair value of $32.17 million being downgraded from a grade 2 rating due to declining financial performance, partially offset by the aforementioned downgrade and one investment with a fair value of $5.85 million as of December 31, 2018 being exchanged for common and preferred equity. The increase in investments with a grade 1 investment performance rating as of March 31, 2019 compared to December 31, 2018 was driven by investments with an aggregate fair value of $66.45 million being upgraded due to potential exits, partially offset by the repayment of one investment with a fair value of $59.05 million as of December 31, 2018.

Investments are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal, interest or dividends will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Accrued interest or dividends generally are reversed when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest or dividend payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon managements judgment. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest or dividends are paid and, in managements judgment, principal and interest or dividend payments are likely to remain current. We may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

Interest
Interest from investments, which includes prepayment premiums and accelerated accretion of upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts, increased from $30.18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $32.18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase is primarily due to an increase in recurring interest income due to an increase in the size of our portfolio and earning exit fees on certain investments. The increase was partially offset by certain investments placed on non-accrual status. Included in interest for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 is $0.65 million and $0.48 million, respectively, in prepayment premiums, $1.04 million and $0.83 million, respectively, in accelerated accretion of upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts, and $0.88 million and $0.00 million, respectively, for exit fees on investments.
54
Dividend income
Dividend income decreased from $2.81 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $2.48 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily as a result of a decrease in distributions from the Senior Credit Fund during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The dividend income from Senior Credit Fund decreased from $2.80 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $2.45 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Payment-in-kind
Payment-in-kind (PIK) income from investments decreased from $2.31 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $1.21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease is primarily driven by one investment in NTS Communication, Inc. being on non-accrual status.
Other income
Other income increased from $0.24 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $0.66 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to an increase in amendment fee income earned on certain investments and the increase in administrative agent fees earned as a result of increase in size of our portfolio.

Interest and other debt expenses
Interest and other debt expense increased from $5.72 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $8.45 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to the increase in weighted average interest rate for the Revolving Credit Facility from 3.63% to 4.38% and the increase in average daily borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility from $410.41 to $534.67 million. In addition, costs associated with the Convertible Notes increased from $1.51 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $2.15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to the incremental issuance of $40.00 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes on July 2, 2018.
Management Fees and Incentive Fees
Management Fees decreased from $4.80 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $3.54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 as a result of the reduction in the Management Fee from an annual rate of 1.50% to an annual rate of 1.00% effective on June 15, 2018, partially offset by an increase in gross assets, excluding cash or cash equivalents. Incentive Fees decreased from $4.68 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 to $0.49 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 primarily due to net capital losses on certain portfolio companies.
Professional fees and other general and administrative expenses
Professional fees and other general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 remained relatively consistent as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in our investments for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily driven by the reversal of unrealized depreciation in connection with the aforementioned exchange with ASC Acquisition Holdings, LLC., partially offset by the unrealized depreciation in Country Fresh Holdings, LLC, which was placed on non-accrual status due to financial underperformance.
SENIOR CREDIT FUND, LLC
Overview
The Senior Credit Fund, an unconsolidated Delaware limited liability company, was formed on May 7, 2014 and commenced operations on October 1, 2014. We invest together with the Regents of the University of California (Cal Regents, and collectively with us, the Members) through the Senior Credit Fund. The Senior Credit Funds principal purpose is to make investments, either directly or indirectly through Senior Credit Fund SPV I, LLC (SPV I) primarily in senior secured loans to middle-market companies. Each of us and Cal Regents has a 50% economic ownership in the Senior Credit Fund and each has subscribed to fund $100.00 million. Except under certain circumstances, contributions to the Senior Credit Fund cannot be redeemed. The Senior Credit Fund is managed by a six member board of managers, on which we and Cal Regents have equal representation. Investment decisions generally must be unanimously approved by a quorum of the board of managers. Establishing a quorum for the Senior Credit Funds board of managers requires at least four members to be present at a meeting, including at least two of our representatives and two of Cal Regents representatives. If there are five members present at a meeting, all three representatives of Cal Regents must be present to constitute a quorum. On August 24, 2018, we and Cal Regents, as the Members of the Senior Credit Fund, entered into an amendment to the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of the Senior Credit Fund to extend the investment period to December 19, 2018. We and Cal Regents are each responsible for sourcing the Senior Credit Funds investments. If the loan origination and structuring fees earned by the Senior Credit Fund (including directly or indirectly through SPV I or another vehicle) during a period exceed the Senior Credit Funds expenses (excluding interest and other debt expenses), such excess is paid as a fee to the Member(s) responsible for the origination of the loans pro rata in accordance with the total loan origination and structuring fees earned by the Senior Credit Fund with respect to the loans originated by such Member.
57
On February 27, 2019, the board of managers of the Senior Credit Fund authorized the liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Senior Credit Fund and the pro-rata distribution of its assets and liabilities to the members of the Senior Credit Fund. Following the distribution of underlying assets and liabilities held by the Senior Credit Fund to its members, including us, the pro-rata portion of such assets and liabilities received by us will become our assets and liabilities and will be directly included in our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and will also be included for purposes of determining our asset coverage ratio. There can be no assurance that the liquidation of the Senior Credit Fund and related transactions will be effectuated, and such transactions will remain subject to any requisite approvals.
Selected Financial Data
As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we and Cal Regents had subscribed to fund and contributed the following in the Senior Credit Fund:

Below is a summary of the Senior Credit Funds portfolio (excluding an investment in a money market fund managed by an affiliate of Group Inc.) followed by a listing of the individual loans in the Senior Credit Funds portfolio as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Weighted average interest coverage(4) | 2.5x | 2.4x | ||||||
Median EBITDA(4) | $ | 48.05 million | $ | 52.70 million |
(1) | At par amount, including fully unfunded commitments. |
(2) | Computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate on accruing senior secured debt divided by (b) total income producing senior secured debt at par amount, excluding fully unfunded commitments. |
(3) | Measured on a fair value basis. |
(4) | For a particular portfolio company of the Senior Credit Fund, we calculate the level of contractual indebtedness net of cash (net debt) owed by the portfolio company, and compare that amount to measures of cash flow available to service the net debt. To calculate net debt, we include debt that is both senior and pari passu to the tranche of debt owned by the Senior Credit Fund, but exclude debt that is legally and contractually subordinated in ranking to the debt owned by the Senior Credit Fund. We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of the Senior Credit Funds portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual rights of repayment of the tranche of debt owned by the Senior Credit Fund relative to other senior and junior creditors of a portfolio company. We typically calculate cash flow available for debt service at a portfolio company by taking EBITDA for the trailing twelve month period. |
For a particular portfolio company of the Senior Credit Fund, we also calculate the level of contractual interest expense owed by the portfolio company, and compare that amount to EBITDA (interest coverage ratio). We believe this calculation method assists in describing the risk of the Senior Credit Funds portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual interest obligations of the portfolio company. |
Median EBITDA is based on the Senior Credit Funds debt investments, excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue. |
Portfolio company statistics are derived from the most recently available financial statements of each portfolio company of the Senior Credit Fund as of the respective reported end date. Statistics of the Senior Credit Funds portfolio companies have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. |

(+) | The terms in the Schedule above disclose the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR (L) or alternate base rate (commonly based on the Prime Rate (P)), at the borrowers option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. L loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month or 1 week L rates. As of March 31, 2019, rates for the 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month and 1 week L are 2.71%, 2.66%, 2.60%, 2.56%, 2.49% and 2.42%, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, P was 5.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at March 31, 2019. |
(1) | Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. |
(2) | The negative cost is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value is the result of the capitalized discount on the loan. |

(+) | The terms in the Schedule above disclose the actual interest rate for partially or fully funded debt in effect as of the reporting date. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to either LIBOR (L) or alternate base rate (commonly based on the Prime Rate (P)), at the borrowers option, which reset periodically based on the terms of the credit agreement. L loans are typically indexed to 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month or 1 week L rates. As of December 31, 2018, rates for the 12 month, 6 month, 3 month, 2 month, 1 month and 1 week L are 3.01%, 2.88%, 2.81%, 2.61%, 2.50% and 2.41%, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, P was 5.50%. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2018. |
(1) | Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. |
(2) | The negative cost is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value is the result of the capitalized discount on the loan. |
(3) | We also hold a portion of senior secured debt in this portfolio company. |
(4) | The investment is on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2018. |
(5) | In exchange for the greater risk of loss, the last-out portion of the Companys unitranche loan investment generally earns a higher interest rate than the first-out portions. The first-out portion of the loan would generally receive priority with respect to payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder over the last-out portion that we would continue to hold. |
(6) | The rate shown is the annualized seven-day yield as of December 31, 2018. |

On December 19, 2016, SPV I entered into an amended and restated credit facility (as amended, the Asset Based Facility), which consists of a revolving credit facility (the SPV I Revolving Credit Facility), a term loan facility (the SPV I Term Loan Facility) and a Class B loan facility (the SPV I Class B Facility), with various lenders. For the Asset Based Facility, Natixis, New York Branch (Natixis) serves as the facility agent, and State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the collateral agent. The SPV I Revolving Credit Facility provided for borrowings in an aggregate amount of $19.55 as of March 31, 2019. Borrowings under the SPV I Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.30%. As of March 31, 2019, the SPV I Term Loan Facility consisted of a $228.87 term loan and the SPV I Class B Facility consisted of a $40.00 Class B loan. Borrowings under the SPV I Term Loan Facility and SPV I Class B Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.30% and LIBOR plus 3.50%, respectively. Any amounts borrowed under the Asset Based Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on December 19, 2025.

As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the SPV Is outstanding borrowings under the Asset Based Facility were $288.42 million and $300.50, respectively. The summary information of the Asset Based Facility for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The primary use of existing funds and any funds raised in the future is expected to be for our investments in portfolio companies, cash distributions to our stockholders or for other general corporate purposes, including paying for operating expenses or debt service to the extent we borrow or issue senior securities.
We expect to generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of any future offerings of securities, future borrowings and cash flows from operations. To the extent we determine that additional capital would allow us to take advantage of additional investment opportunities, if the market for debt financing presents attractively priced debt financing opportunities, or if our Board of Directors otherwise determines that leveraging our portfolio would be in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders, we may enter into credit facilities in addition to our existing credit facilities as discussed below, or issue other senior securities. We would expect any such credit facilities may be secured by certain of our assets and may contain advance rates based upon pledged collateral. The pricing and other terms of any such facilities would depend upon market conditions when we enter into any such facilities as well as the performance of our business, among other factors. As a BDC, with certain limited exceptions, we are only permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met). See Key Components of OperationsLeverage. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our asset coverage ratio based on the aggregate amount outstanding of our senior securities was 197% and 206%, respectively. We may also refinance or repay any of our indebtedness at any time based on our financial condition and market conditions.
We may enter into commitments either verbally or through signed commitment letters which may ultimately become investment transactions in the future. We regularly evaluate and carefully consider our unfunded commitments using GSAMs proprietary risk management framework for the purpose of planning our capital resources and ongoing liquidity, including our financial leverage.
As of March 31, 2019, we had cash of approximately $5.89 million, a decrease of $0.22 million from December 31, 2018. Cash used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was approximately $27.26 million, primarily driven by an increase in net assets resulting from operations of $2.22 million, proceeds from sales and principal repayments of $79.05 million and proceeds from other operating activities of $17.58 million, offset by purchases of investments of $126.11 million. Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was approximately $27.06 million, primarily driven by repayments on debt of $86.00 million, distributions paid of $17.34 million and other financing activities of $0.49 million, offset by borrowings on debt of $130.89 million.
As of March 31, 2018, we had cash of approximately $6.93 million, a decrease of $4.68 million from December 31, 2017. Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $31.01 million, primarily driven by an increase in net assets resulting from operations of $18.45 million, proceeds from sales and principal repayments of $78.71 million and net proceeds from investment in affiliated money market of $11.54 million, offset by purchases of investments of $72.78 million and cash used for other operating activities of $4.91 million. Cash used for financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $35.69 million, primarily driven by repayments on debt of $74.75 million, distributions paid of $17.56 million and other financing activities of $1.88 million, offset by borrowings on debt of $58.50 million.
64
To the extent permissible under the risk retention rules and applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act, we may raise capital by securitizing certain of our investments, including through the formation of one or more CLOs or asset based facilities, while retaining all or most of the exposure to the performance of these investments. This would involve contributing a pool of assets to a special purpose entity, and selling debt interests in such entity on a non-recourse or limited-recourse basis to purchasers. We may also pursue other forms of debt financing, including potentially from the Small Business Administration through a future small business investment company subsidiary (subject to regulatory approvals).
Equity Issuances
There were no sales of our common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.
Common Stock Repurchase Plans
In February 2016, our Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase up to $25.00 million of our common stock if the stock trades below the most recently announced NAV per share (including any updates, corrections or adjustments publicly announced by us to any previously announced NAV per share), from March 18, 2016 to March 18, 2017, subject to certain limitations. In February 2017, our Board of Directors renewed its authorization of the stock repurchase plan to extend the expiration to March 18, 2018, in February 2018, again renewed its authorization of the stock repurchase plan to extend the expiration to March 18, 2019 and, in February 2019, again renewed its authorization of the stock repurchase plan to extend the expiration to March 18, 2020.
In connection with this authorization, we entered into a 10b5-1 plan (the Company 10b5-1 Plan). The Company 10b5-1 Plan initially took effect on March 18, 2016 (with any purchases to commence after the opening of NYSE trading on March 21, 2016), was subsequently renewed and expired on March 18, 2018. We entered into an agreement to renew the Company 10b5-1 Plan on May 14, 2018, which was terminated on June 27, 2018 in connection with our offering of Convertible Notes described below in Convertible Notes. On June 27, 2018, we entered into an agreement to renew the Company 10b5-1 Plan with any purchases pursuant to the agreement to commence on September 25, 2018. The Company 10b5-1 Plan expired on March 18, 2019.
In February 2019, our Board of Directors approved a new common stock repurchase plan (the New Company 10b5-1 Plan), which provides for us to repurchase of up to $25.00 million of shares of our common stock if the stock trades below the most recently announced net asset value per share, subject to limitations. Under the New Company 10b5-1 Plan, no purchases will be made if such purchases would (i) cause the aggregate ownership of our outstanding stock by Group Inc. and GS & Co. to equal or exceed 25.0% (due to the reduction in outstanding shares of stock as a result of purchase) or (ii) cause our Debt/Equity Ratio to exceed the lower of (a) 1.40 or (b) the Maximum Debt/Equity Ratio. In the New Company 10b5-1 Plan, Debt/Equity Ratio means the sum of debt on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the total notional value of the Purchasers unfunded commitments divided by 85% of total equity, as of the most recent reported financial statement end date, and Maximum Debt/Equity Ratio means the sum of debt on the balance sheet and committed uncalled debt divided by net assets, as of the most recent reported financial statement end date. The New Company 10b5-1 Plan took effect on March 18, 2019, expires on March 18, 2020 and purchases thereunder will be conducted on a programmatic basis in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Exchange Act and other applicable securities laws.
Repurchases of our common stock under the New Company 10b5-1 Plan or otherwise may result in the price of our common stock being higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we did not repurchase any of our common stock pursuant to the Company 10b5-1 Plan, the New Company 10b5-1 Plan or otherwise.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Concurrent with the IPO, we adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of all cash distributions declared by the Board of Directors unless a stockholder elects to opt out of the plan. As a result, if the Board of Directors declares a cash distribution, then the stockholders who have not opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution. Due to regulatory considerations, Group Inc. has opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan, and GS & Co. has opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan in respect of any shares of our common stock acquired through the GS 10b5-1 Plan.
The following table summarizes shares distributed pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan during the three months ended March 31, 2019 to stockholders who had not opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan.

Contractual Obligations
We have entered into certain contracts under which we have future commitments. Payments under the Investment Management Agreement, pursuant to which GSAM has agreed to serve as our Investment Adviser, are equal to (1) a percentage of value of our average gross assets and (2) a two-part Incentive Fee. Under the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which State Street Bank and Trust Company has agreed to furnish us with the administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations, we pay our administrator such fees as may be agreed between us and our administrator that we determine are commercially reasonable in our sole discretion. Either party or the stockholders, by a vote of a majority of our outstanding voting securities, may terminate the Investment Management Agreement without penalty on at least 60 days written notice to the other party. Either party may terminate the Administration Agreement without penalty upon at least 30 days written notice to the other party.
The following table shows our contractual obligations as of March 31, 2019:

Revolving Credit Facility
On September 19, 2013, we entered into the Revolving Credit Facility with various lenders. SunTrust Bank serves as administrative agent and Bank of America N.A. serves as syndication agent. We amended and restated the Revolving Credit Facility on October 3, 2014, November 3, 2015, December 16, 2016, February 21, 2018 and September 17, 2018.
The aggregate committed borrowing amount under the Revolving Credit Facility is $795.00 million. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an uncommitted accordion feature that allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the borrowing capacity of the Revolving Credit Facility up to $1,000.00 million.
Borrowings denominated in USD, including amounts drawn in respect of letters of credit, bear interest (at our election) of either (i) LIBOR plus a margin of either 1.75% or 2.00%, subject to borrowing base conditions or (ii) an alternative base rate, which is the higher of the Prime Rate, Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% or overnight LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus either 0.75% or 1.00%, subject to borrowing base conditions. Borrowings denominated in EUR bear interest (at our election) or EUR LIBOR plus a margin of either 1.75% or 2.00%, subject to borrowing base conditions. We may elect either the LIBOR, EUR LIBOR, or an alternative base rate at the time of borrowing, and borrowings may be converted from one rate to another at any time, subject to certain conditions. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. We pay a fee of 0.375% per annum on committed but undrawn amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears. Any amounts borrowed under the Revolving Credit Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on February 21, 2023.
The Revolving Credit Facility may be guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries, including any that are formed or acquired by us in the future (collectively, the Guarantors). The Senior Credit Fund is not a Guarantor of the Revolving Credit Facility. Proceeds from borrowings may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments.
Our obligations to the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our portfolio of investments and cash, with certain exceptions. The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain covenants, including: (i) maintaining a minimum shareholders equity of $500.00 million plus 25% of net proceeds of the sale of equity interests after February 21, 2018, (ii) maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio of at least 150%, (iii) maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio of 200% with respect to consolidated assets (with certain limitations on the contribution of equity in financing subsidiaries as specified therein) of us and our subsidiary guarantors to the secured debt of us and our subsidiary guarantors, (iv) maintaining a minimum Company net worth of at least $350.00 million, (v) maintaining a minimum liquidity test of at least 10% of the covered debt amount during any period when the adjusted covered debt balance is greater than 90% of the adjusted borrowing base, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility, and (vi) complying with restrictions on industry concentrations in our investment portfolio. We are in compliance with these covenants.
The Revolving Credit Facility also includes customary representations and warranties, conditions precedent to funding of draws and events of default.

Convertible Notes
On October 3, 2016, we closed an offering of $115.00 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured Convertible Notes, which included $15.00 million aggregate principal amount issued pursuant to the initial purchasers exercise in full of an over-allotment option (the Initial Convertible Notes). The sale of the Initial Convertible Notes generated net proceeds of approximately $110.90 million. We used the net proceeds of the offering to pay down debt under the Revolving Credit Facility.
On July 2, 2018, we closed an offering of $40.00 million aggregate additional principal amount (the Additional Convertible Notes and, together with the Initial Convertible Notes, the Convertible Notes). The Additional Convertible Notes have identical terms, are fungible and are part of the Initial Convertible Notes. The sale of the Additional Convertible Notes generated net proceeds of approximately $38.57 million. We used the net proceeds of the offering to pay down debt under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Convertible Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture between us and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee. Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and/or its affiliates provide bank lending and distribution services to certain Goldman Sachs funds. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on April 1, 2017. The Convertible Notes will mature on April 1, 2022, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. In certain circumstances, the Convertible Notes will be convertible into cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, based on an initial conversion rate of 40.8397 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $24.49 per share of common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments and the other terms of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. The conversion price is approximately 10.0% above the $22.26 per share closing price of our common stock on September 27, 2016 and 16.7% above the $20.99 per share closing price of our common stock on June 26, 2018. We will not have the right to redeem the Convertible Notes prior to maturity.
Holders may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding October 1, 2021 only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter, if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the measurement period) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. On or after October 1, 2021, until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their notes at any time, regardless of the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any of the foregoing circumstances.
The Convertible Notes are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Upon conversion of any of the Convertible Notes, we intend to pay the outstanding principal amount in cash and, to the extent that the conversion value exceeds the principal amount, we have the option to pay the excess amount in cash or shares of our common stock (or a combination of cash and shares), subject to the requirements of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes. We have determined that the embedded conversion options in the Convertible Notes are not required to be separately accounted for as derivatives under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. At the time of issuance the values of the debt and equity components of the Initial Convertible Notes and Additional Convertible Notes were approximately 99.4% and 0.6%, and 97.9% and 2.1%, respectively.
The OID equal to the equity component of the Convertible Notes was recorded in paid-in capital in excess of par in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. We record interest expense comprised of both stated interest and amortization of the OID. At the time of issuance, the equity component of the Initial Convertible Notes and the Additional Convertible Notes were $0.74 million and $0.84 million, respectively. Additionally, the issuance costs associated with the Convertible Notes were allocated to the debt and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the values at the time of issuance and accounted for as debt issuance costs and equity issuance costs, respectively.

HEDGING
Subject to applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act and applicable Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) regulations, we may enter into hedging transactions in a manner consistent with SEC guidance. To the extent that any of our loans are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, we may enter into currency hedging contracts to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. We may also enter into interest rate hedging agreements. Such hedging activities, which will be subject to compliance with applicable legal requirements, may include the use of futures, options, swaps and forward contracts. Costs incurred in entering into such contracts or in settling them, if any, will be borne by us. The Investment Adviser has claimed no-action relief from CFTC registration and regulation as a commodity pool operator pursuant to a CFTC staff no-action letter (the BDC CFTC No-Action Letter) with respect to our operations, with the result that we will be limited in our ability to use futures contracts or options on futures contracts or engage in swap transactions. Specifically, the BDC CFTC No-Action Letter imposes strict limitations on using such derivatives other than for hedging purposes, whereby the use of derivatives not used solely for hedging purposes is generally limited to situations where (i) the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish such positions does not exceed five percent of the liquidation value of our portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such contracts it has entered into; or (ii) the aggregate net notional value of such derivatives does not exceed 100% of the liquidation value of our portfolio. Moreover, we anticipate entering into transactions involving such derivatives to a very limited extent solely for hedging purposes or otherwise within the limitations of the BDC CFTC No-Action Letter.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We may become a party to investment commitments and to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to fund investments and to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
As of March 31, 2019, we believed that we had adequate financial resources to satisfy our unfunded commitments. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies were as follows:

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On May 7, 2019, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.45 per share payable on July 15, 2019 to holders of record as of June 28, 2019.
On May 8, 2019, we and Cal Regents each contributed $125.56 million to the Senior Credit Fund, which was used by the Senior Credit Fund to repay in full all outstanding indebtedness, including all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, under the Asset Based Facility and to fund certain other related expenses that the Senior Credit Fund expects to incur in connection with its dissolution. The Asset Based Facility was then terminated and all liens securing the collateral under the Asset Based Facility were released. We funded our portion of the contributed amount through additional borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility.
Following the repayment and termination, the Senior Credit Fund distributed each members pro rata share of all of its assets (other than cash and cash equivalents), primarily consisting of senior secured loans, to the members. We also assumed the obligation to fund outstanding unfunded commitments of the Senior Credit Fund that totaled $7.80 million as of March 31, 2019, representing 50% of the Senior Credit Funds aggregate unfunded commitments. The pro rata portion of the assets received by us will become our assets and will be directly included in our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, and will also be included for purposes of determining our asset coverage ratio. Based on March 31, 2019 balances, the assets to be received by us are approximately $221.77 million and $215.73 million at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively.
In connection with the repayment of the Asset Based Facility and the distribution of all of its loan assets, the Senior Credit Fund declared a $2.00 million cash distribution to its members, representing estimated quarter-to-date net investment income, 50% of which will be paid to us.
We and Cal Regents have begun the process of dissolving the Senior Credit Fund. After the satisfaction of all remaining liabilities and the distribution of any remaining assets (including any amounts owed to it and not yet received), the Senior Credit Fund will be wound up and terminated.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
As a BDC, we conduct the valuation of our assets, pursuant to which our NAV is determined, consistent with GAAP and the Investment Company Act. Our Board of Directors, with the assistance of our Audit Committee, determines the fair value of our assets within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, on at least a quarterly basis, in accordance with the terms of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASC 820).
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. For some assets and liabilities, observable market transactions or market information might be available. For other assets and liabilities, observable market transactions and market information might not be available. However, the objective of a fair value measurement in both cases is the same to estimate the price when an orderly transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability would take place between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions (that is, an exit price at the measurement date from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability).
68
ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework which ranks the observability of inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of financial instruments and their specific characteristics. Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities.
The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement is defined as follows:
Level 1inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. The types of financial instruments included in Level 1 include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets.
Level 2inputs to the valuation methodology are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. The type of financial instruments in this category includes less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.
Level 3inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments that are included in this category include investments in privately held entities and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument.
Currently, the majority of our investments fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We do not expect that there will be readily available market values for most of the investments which are in our portfolio, and we value such investments at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors using a documented valuation policy, described below, and a consistently applied valuation process. The factors that may be taken into account in pricing our investments at fair value include, as relevant, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio companys ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flow, and the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded securities and other relevant factors. Available current market data are considered such as applicable market yields and multiples of publicly traded securities, comparison of financial ratios of peer companies, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that may affect the price at which similar investments would trade in their principal market, and other relevant factors. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, we consider the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate or revise our valuation.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or for which market quotations are deemed not reflective of the fair value, the valuation procedures adopted by our Board of Directors contemplates a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
(1) | Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of our Investment Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment; |
(2) | Our Board of Directors also engages independent valuation firms (the Independent Valuation Advisors) to provide independent valuations of the investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of an investment. The Independent Valuation Advisors independently value such investments using quantitative and qualitative information provided by the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser as well as any market quotations obtained from independent pricing services, brokers, dealers or market dealers. The Independent Valuation Advisors also provide analyses to support their valuation methodology and calculations. The Independent Valuation Advisors provide an opinion on a final range of values on such investments to our Board of Directors or the Audit Committee. The Independent Valuation Advisors define fair value in accordance with ASC 820 and utilize valuation approaches including the market approach, the income approach or both. A portion of the portfolio is reviewed on a quarterly basis, and all investments in the portfolio for which market quotations are not readily available, or are readily available, but deemed not reflective of the fair value of an investment, are reviewed at least annually by an Independent Valuation Advisor; |
(3) | The Independent Valuation Advisors preliminary valuations are reviewed by our Investment Adviser and the Valuation Oversight Group (VOG), a team that is part of the Controllers Department within the Finance Division of Goldman Sachs. The Independent Valuation Advisors ranges are compared to our Investment Advisers valuations to ensure our Investment Advisers valuations are reasonable. VOG presents the valuations to the Private Investment Valuation and Side Pocket Working Group of the Investment Management Division Valuation Committee, which is comprised of representatives from GSAM who are independent of the investment making decision process; |
69
(4) | The Investment Management Division Valuation Committee ratifies fair valuations and makes recommendations to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors; |
(5) | The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors reviews valuation information provided by the Investment Management Division Valuation Committee, our Investment Adviser and the Independent Valuation Advisors. The Audit Committee then assesses such valuation recommendations; and |
(6) | Our Board of Directors discusses the valuations and, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, determines the fair value of our investments in good faith, based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the Independent Valuation Advisors and the Audit Committee. |
Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income
We record our investment transactions on a trade date basis, which is the date when we assume the risks for gains and losses related to that instrument. Realized gains and losses are based on the specific identification method. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Interest income and dividend income are presented net of withholding tax, if any. Accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, which are included in interest income and expense, are recorded over the life of the underlying instrument using the effective interest method.
Fair value generally is based on quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative price sources. In the absence of quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative price sources, investments in securities are measured at fair value as determined by our Investment Adviser and/or by one or more independent third parties.
Due to the inherent uncertainties of valuation, certain estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been realized had a ready market for these investments existed, and these differences could be material. For additional information, see Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Non-Accrual Status
Investments are placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal, interest or dividends will not be collected according to the contractual terms. Accrued interest or dividends generally are reversed when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest or dividend payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon managements judgment. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest or dividends are paid and, in managements judgment, principal and interest or dividend payments are likely to remain current. We may make exceptions to this treatment if the investment has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of March 31, 2019, we had certain investments held in three portfolio companies on non-accrual status, which represented 4.5% and 3.5% of the total investments at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, we had certain investments held in three portfolio companies on non-accrual status, which represented 8.3% and 7.0% of the total investments at amortized cost and at fair value, respectively.
Distribution Policy
We intend to pay quarterly distributions to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. Future quarterly distributions, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors. All distributions will be subject to lawfully available funds therefor, and no assurance can be given that we will be able to declare distributions in future periods.
We have elected to be treated, and expect to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. To maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we must, among other things, timely distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our investment company taxable income for each taxable year. We intend to timely distribute to our stockholders substantially all of our annual taxable income for each year, except that we may retain certain net capital gains for reinvestment and carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following year and pay any applicable tax. The distributions we pay to our stockholders in a year may exceed our net ordinary income and capital gains for that year and, accordingly, a portion of such distributions may constitute a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The specific tax characteristics of our distributions will be reported to stockholders after the end of the calendar year. Stockholders should read carefully any written disclosure regarding a distribution from us and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our net ordinary income or capital gains.
We have adopted an opt out dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, if our Board of Directors declares a cash distribution, each stockholder that has not opted out of our dividend reinvestment plan will have its distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock rather than receiving the cash distribution. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will generally be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions; however, since their cash distributions will be reinvested, those stockholders will not receive cash with which to pay any applicable taxes. Due to regulatory considerations, Group Inc. has opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan, and GS & Co. has opted out of the dividend reinvestment plan in respect of any shares of our common stock acquired through the GS 10b5-1 Plan.
70
Federal Income Taxes
As a RIC, we generally will not be required to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that we timely distribute to our stockholders as dividends. To maintain our RIC status, we must meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our investment company taxable income for each year. Depending upon the level of taxable income earned in a year, we may choose to carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following year and pay any applicable tax. We generally will be required to pay a U.S. federal excise tax if our distributions during a calendar year do not exceed 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 gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (3) any net ordinary income and capital gains in excess of capital losses for preceding years that were not distributed during such years.
Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the consolidated financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are subject to financial market risks, most significantly changes in interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. Because we expect to fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is expected to be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.
As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, on a fair value basis, approximately 3.7% and 3.4%, respectively, of our performing debt investments bore interest at a fixed rate (including income producing preferred stock investments), and approximately 96.3% and 96.6%, respectively, of our performing debt investments bore interest at a floating rate. Our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate and the Convertible Notes bear interest at a fixed rate.
We regularly measure our exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities.
Based on our March 31, 2019 balance sheet, the following table shows the annual impact on net income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:

We may, in the future, hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the Investment Company Act, applicable CFTC regulations and in a manner consistent with SEC guidance. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates.
71
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2019. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
72
From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under loans to or other contracts with our portfolio companies. We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us.
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously reported under Item 1A: Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was filed with the SEC on February 28, 2019. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
On May 8, 2019, the Senior Credit Fund repaid in full all outstanding indebtedness, including all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, under the Asset Based Facility, and distributed each members pro rata share of all of the assets held by it to the members.
