FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains information that may constitute “forward-looking statements.” Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,”
“intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “plan” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future—including statements relating to volume growth, share of sales and earnings per share growth, and statements expressing general views about future operating results—are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019, and those described from time to time in reports that we have filed or in the future may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The forward-looking statements contained in this report involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including statements concerning:

our future operating results;
our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;
the impact of investments that we expect to make;
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 impact of global health epidemics, including, but not limited to, the recent and ongoing novel coronavirus (“Wuhan Virus”) pandemic, on our and our portfolio companies’ business and the global economy;
uncertainty surrounding the financial stability of the United States, Europe, and China;
the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;
difficulty in obtaining financing or raising capital, especially in the current credit and equity environment, and the impact of a protracted decline in the liquidity of credit markets on our and our portfolio companies’ business;
the level and volatility of prevailing interest rates and credit spreads, magnified by the current turmoil in the credit markets;
the impact of changes in London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) on our operating results;
adverse developments in the availability of desirable loan and investment opportunities whether they are due to competition, regulation or otherwise;
a compression of the yield on our investments and the cost of our liabilities, as well as the level of leverage available to us;
our regulatory structure and tax treatment, including our ability to operate as a business development company and a regulated investment company;
the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital;
the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies;
the ability of the Investment Adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments; and
authoritative generally accepted accounting principles or policy changes from such standard-setting bodies as the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Securities and Exchange Commission, Internal Revenue Service, the NASDAQ Global Select Market, and other authorities that we are subject to, as well as their counterparts in any foreign jurisdictions where we might do business.

CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULES OF INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)
(in thousands, except share data)

Endnote Explanations as of March 31, 2020 (Unaudited) and June 30, 2019



(1)
The terms “Prospect,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Prospect Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise. The securities in which Prospect has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
(2)
Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. Unless otherwise indicated by endnote 10 below, all of our investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. In accordance with ASC 820, such investments are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Notes 2 and 3 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
(3)
Security, or a portion thereof, is held by Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), our wholly owned subsidiary and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and is pledged as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility and such security is not available as collateral to our general creditors (see Note 4). The fair values of the investments held by PCF at March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019 were $1,631,687 and $1,636,067, respectively, representing 31.7% and 28.9% of our total investments, respectively.
(4)
In addition to the stated returns, the net profits interest held will be realized upon sale of the borrower or a sale of the interests.
(5)
This investment is in the equity class of the collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) security, which is referred to as “Subordinated Structured Note,” or “SSN”. The SSN investments are entitled to recurring distributions which are generally equal to the excess cash flow generated from the underlying investments after payment of the contractual payments to debt holders and fund expenses. The current estimated yield, calculated using amortized cost, is based on the current projections of this excess cash flow taking into account assumptions which have been made regarding expected prepayments, losses and future reinvestment rates. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and adjusted. Ultimately, the actual yield may be higher or lower than the estimated yield if actual results differ from those used for the assumptions.
(6)
This investment is in the debt class of the CLO security, which is referred to as “Rated Secured Structured Note,” or “RSSN”.
(7)
Engine Group, Inc., EMX Digital, Inc. (f/k/a Clearstream.TV, Inc.), and Engine International, Inc., are joint borrowers on the senior secured and the second lien term loans.

The interest rate on these investments is subject to the base rate of 3-Month LIBOR, which was 1.45% and 2.32% at March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The current base rate for each investment may be different from the reference rate on March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019.
(12)
The interest rate on these investments is subject to the base rate of 2-Month LIBOR, which was 1.26% and 2.33% at March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The current base rate for each investment may be different from the reference rate on March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019.
(13)
The interest rate on these investments is subject to the base rate of 1-Month LIBOR, which was 0.99% and 2.40% at March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The current base rate for each investment may be different from the reference rate on March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019.
(14)
Investment has been designated as an investment not “qualifying” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). Under the 1940 Act, we may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of our total assets. As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, our qualifying assets, as a percentage of total assets, stood at 74.91% and 73.85%, respectively. We monitor the status of these assets on an ongoing basis.

(16)
Represents non-income producing security that has not paid a dividend in the year preceding the reporting date.
(17)
The effective yield has been estimated to be 0% as expected future cash flows are anticipated to not be sufficient to repay the investment at cost. If the expected investment proceeds increase, there is a potential for future investment income from the investment. Distributions, once received, will be recognized as return of capital with any remaining unamortized investment costs written off if the actual distributions are less than the amortized investment cost. If an investment has been impaired upon being called, any future distributions will be recorded as a return of capital. To the extent that the impaired cost basis of the SSN is fully recovered, any future distributions will be recorded as realized gains.
(18)
Ellett Brothers, LLC, Evans Sports, Inc., Jerry’s Sports, Inc., Simmons Gun Specialties, Inc., Bonitz Brothers, Inc., and Outdoor Sports Headquarters, Inc. are joint borrowers on the second lien term loan. United Sporting Companies, Inc. (“USC”) is a parent guarantor of this debt investment, and is 100% owned by SportCo Holdings, Inc. (“SportCo”). Prospect previously held a 3.48% equity interest in SportCo and following an additional issuance of common stock by SportCo, Prospect’s ownership increased to 22.0% as of September 30, 2018. As a result, Prospect’s investment in USC is classified as an affiliate investment beginning the period ended September 30, 2018. In June 2019, USC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and began liquidating its remaining assets. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, USC used a portion of the proceeds from the ongoing liquidation to partially repay $20,594 of our Second Lien Term Loan.
(19)

We recorded a realized gain of $12,105 on the sale of our equity position in CCPI.

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)



Note 1. Organization
In this report, the terms “Prospect,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Prospect Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

Prospect is a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company incorporated in Maryland. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). We were organized on April 13, 2004, and were funded in an initial public offering completed on July 27, 2004.

On May 15, 2007, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), a Delaware limited liability company and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are used as collateral for the revolving credit facility at PCF. Our wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Small Business Lending, LLC (“PSBL”) was formed on January 27, 2014, and purchases small business whole loans on a recurring basis from online small business loan originators, including On Deck Capital, Inc. (“OnDeck”). On September 30, 2014, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Yield Corporation, LLC (“PYC”) and effective October 23, 2014, PYC holds a portion of our investments in Rated Secured Structured Notes (“RSSN”) and Subordinated Structured Notes (“SSN”) (collectively referred to as “collateralized loan obligations” or “CLOs”). Each of these subsidiaries have been consolidated since operations commenced.
We consolidate certain of our wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us in order to facilitate our investment strategy. The following companies are included in our consolidated financial statements and are collectively referred to as the “Consolidated Holding Companies”: CP Holdings of Delaware LLC; Credit Central Holdings of Delaware, LLC; Energy Solutions Holdings Inc.; First Tower Holdings of Delaware LLC; MITY Holdings of Delaware Inc.; Nationwide Acceptance Holdings LLC; NMMB Holdings, Inc.; NPH Property Holdings, LLC; STI Holding, Inc.; UTP Holdings Group Inc.; Valley Electric Holdings I, Inc.; and Valley Electric Holdings II, Inc.
We are externally managed by our investment adviser, Prospect Capital Management L.P. (“Prospect Capital Management” or the “Investment Adviser”). Prospect Administration LLC (“Prospect Administration” or the “Administrator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser, provides administrative services and facilities necessary for us to operate.
Our investment objective is to generate both current income and long-term capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We invest primarily in senior and subordinated debt and equity of private companies in need of capital for acquisitions, divestitures, growth, development, recapitalizations and other purposes. We work with the management teams or financial sponsors to identify investments with historical cash flows, asset collateral or contracted pro forma cash flows for investment.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q, ASC 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. Under the 1940 Act, ASC 946, and the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services to benefit us. Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prospect, PCF, PSBL, PYC, and the Consolidated Holding Companies. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial results of our non-substantially wholly owned holding companies and operating portfolio company investments are not consolidated in the financial statements. Any operating companies owned by the Consolidated Holding Companies are not consolidated.
Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made in the presentation of prior consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to conform to the presentation as of and for the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income, expenses, and gains and losses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, creditworthiness of the issuers of our investment portfolio and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material.
Investment Classification
We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the voting securities of an investee company. Under the 1940 Act, “Affiliate Investments” are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.
As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, our qualifying assets as a percentage of total assets, stood at 74.91% and 73.85%, respectively.
Investment Transactions
Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. In accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interest in Securitized Financial Assets, investments in CLOs are periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). When the Company determines that a CLO has OTTI, the amortized cost basis of the CLO is written down to its fair value as of the date of the determination based on events and information evaluated and that write-down is recognized as a realized loss. Amounts for investments traded but not yet settled are reported in Due to Broker or Due from Broker, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Foreign Currency
Foreign currency amounts are translated into US Dollars (USD) on the following basis:
i.
fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period; and
ii.
purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such investment transactions, income or expenses.
We do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held or disposed of during the period. Such fluctuations are included within the net realized and net change in unrealized gains or losses from investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Investment Risks
Our investments are subject to a variety of risks. Those risks include the following:
Market Risk
Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by a change in the fair value of the financial instrument.

53

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


Credit Risk
Credit risk represents the risk that we would incur if the counterparties failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their agreements with us.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk represents the possibility that we may not be able to rapidly adjust the size of our investment positions in times of high volatility and financial stress at a reasonable price.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk represents a change in interest rates, which could result in an adverse change in the fair value of an interest-bearing financial instrument.
Prepayment Risk
Many of our debt investments allow for prepayment of principal without penalty. Downward changes in interest rates may cause prepayments to occur at a faster than expected rate, thereby effectively shortening the maturity of the security and making us less likely to fully earn all of the expected income of that security and reinvesting in a lower yielding instrument.
Structured Credit Related Risk

CLO investments may be riskier and less transparent to us than direct investments in underlying companies. CLOs typically will have no significant assets other than their underlying senior secured loans. Therefore, payments on CLO investments are and will be payable solely from the cash flows from such senior secured loans. 
Online Small-and-Medium-Sized Business Lending Risk
With respect to our online small-and-medium-sized business (“SME”) lending initiative, we invest primarily in marketplace loans through marketplace lending platforms (e.g. OnDeck). We do not conduct loan origination activities ourselves. Therefore, our ability to purchase SME loans, and our ability to grow our portfolio of SME loans, is directly influenced by the business performance and competitiveness of the marketplace loan origination business of the marketplace lending platforms from which we purchase SME loans. In addition, our ability to analyze the risk-return profile of SME loans is significantly dependent on the marketplace platforms’ ability to effectively evaluate a borrower's credit profile and likelihood of default. If we are unable to effectively evaluate borrowers' credit profiles or the credit decisioning and scoring models implemented by each platform, we may incur unanticipated losses which could adversely impact our operating results.
Foreign Currency
Investments denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin. 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.
Investment Valuation
To value our investments, we follow the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in conformity with GAAP, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted.

54

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment.
Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations.
For most of our investments, market quotations are not available. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below.
1.
Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with independent valuation firms engaged by our Board of Directors.
2.
The independent valuation firms prepare independent valuations for each investment based on their own independent assessments and issue their report.
3.
The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses with the independent valuation firms the valuation reports, and then makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors of the value for each investment.
4.
The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firm and the Audit Committee.
Our non-CLO investments are valued utilizing a yield technique, enterprise value (“EV”) technique, net asset value technique, asset recovery technique, discounted cash flow technique, or a combination of techniques, as appropriate. The yield technique uses loan spreads for loans and other relevant information implied by market data involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. Under the EV technique, the EV of a portfolio company is first determined and allocated over the portfolio company’s securities in order of their preference relative to one another (i.e., “waterfall” allocation). To determine the EV, we typically use a market (multiples) valuation approach that considers relevant and applicable market trading data of guideline public companies, transaction metrics from precedent merger and acquisitions transactions, and/or a discounted cash flow technique. The net asset value technique, an income approach, is used to derive a value of an underlying investment (such as real estate property) by dividing a relevant earnings stream by an appropriate capitalization rate. For this purpose, we consider capitalization rates for similar properties as may be obtained from guideline public companies and/or relevant transactions. The asset recovery technique is intended to approximate the net recovery value of an investment based on, among other things, assumptions regarding liquidation proceeds based on a hypothetical liquidation of a portfolio company’s assets. The discounted cash flow technique converts future cash flows or earnings to a range of fair values from which a single estimate may be derived utilizing an appropriate discount rate. The fair value measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts.
In applying these methodologies, additional factors that we consider in valuing our investments may include, as we deem relevant: security covenants, call protection provisions, and information rights; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments; the principal markets in which the portfolio company does business; publicly available financial ratios of peer companies; the principal market; and enterprise values, among other factors.
Our investments in CLOs are classified as Level 3 fair value measured securities under ASC 820 and are valued using a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The CLO structures are analyzed to identify the risk exposures and to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations, which is a simulation used to model the probability of different outcomes, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows from the underlying assets and liabilities.  These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and

55

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


relevant data in the CLO market as well as certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment.  In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the multi-path cash flows.  We are not responsible for and have no influence over the asset management of the portfolios underlying the CLO investments we hold, as those portfolios are managed by non-affiliated third-party CLO collateral managers. The main risk factors are default risk, prepayment risk, interest rate risk, downgrade risk, and credit spread risk.
Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, specifically ASC 825-10-25, permits an entity to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the “Fair Value Option”). We have not elected the Fair Value Option to report selected financial assets and financial liabilities. See Note 8 for the disclosure of the fair value of our outstanding debt and the market observable inputs used in determining fair value.
Convertible Notes
We have recorded the Convertible Notes at their contractual amounts. We have determined that the embedded conversion options in the Convertible Unsecured Notes are not required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. See Note 5 for further discussion.
Revenue Recognition
Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.
Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Loan origination fees, original issue discount, and market discounts are capitalized and accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans using the effective interest method or straight-line, as applicable, and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon a prepayment of a loan, prepayment premiums, original issue discount, or market discounts are recorded as interest income.
Loans are placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Unpaid accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are either applied to the cost basis or interest income, depending upon management’s judgment of the collectibility of the loan receivable. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, is likely to remain current and future principal and interest collections when due are probable. Interest received and applied against cost while a loan is on non-accrual, and PIK interest capitalized but not recognized while on non-accrual, is recognized prospectively on the effective yield basis through maturity of the loan when placed back on accrual status, to the extent deemed collectible by management. As of March 31, 2020, approximately 1.6% of our total assets at fair value are in non-accrual status.
Some of our loans and other investments may have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, we capitalize the accrued interest (reflecting such amounts in the basis as additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point that we believe PIK is not fully expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. We do not reverse previously capitalized PIK interest or dividends. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on non-accrual status are restored to accrual status if we believe that PIK is expected to be realized.
Interest income from investments in Subordinated Structured Notes (typically preferred shares, income notes or subordinated notes of CLO funds) and “equity” class of security of securitized trust is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing assumed cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. We monitor the expected cash inflows from our CLO and securitized trust equity investments, including the expected residual payments, and the effective yield is determined and updated periodically.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Other income generally includes amendment fees, commitment fees, administrative agent fees and structuring fees which are recorded when earned. Excess deal deposits, net profits interests and overriding royalty interests are included in other income. See Note 10 for further discussion.
Federal and State Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a RIC and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gain to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.
If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains exceed the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income. As of March 31, 2020, we do not expect to have any excise tax due for the 2020 calendar year. Thus, we have not accrued any excise tax for this period.
If we fail to satisfy the annual distribution requirement or otherwise fail to qualify as a RIC in any taxable year, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would we be required to make distributions. Distributions would generally be taxable to our individual and other non-corporate taxable stockholders as ordinary dividend income eligible for the reduced maximum rate applicable to qualified dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, provided certain holding period and other requirements are met. Subject to certain limitations under the Code, corporate distributions would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. To qualify again to be taxed as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our shareholders our accumulated earnings and profits attributable to non-RIC years. In addition, if we failed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of five years.

We follow ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. As of March 31, 2020, we did not record any unrecognized tax benefits or liabilities. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Although we file both federal and state income tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. Our federal tax returns for the tax years ended August 31, 2016 and thereafter remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Dividends and Distributions
Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount, if any, to be paid as a monthly dividend or distribution is approved by our Board of Directors quarterly and is generally based upon our management’s estimate of our future taxable earnings. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
Financing Costs
We record origination expenses related to our Revolving Credit Facility, and Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our “Unsecured Notes”) as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method over the stated life of the obligation for our Revolving Credit Facility. The same methodology is used to approximate the effective yield method for our Prospect Capital InterNotes® and our at-the-market offerings of our existing unsecured notes that mature on June 15, 2024 (“2024 Notes Follow-on Program”), June 15, 2028 (“2028 Notes Follow-on Program”), and June 15, 2029 (“2029 Follow-on Program”). The effective interest method is used to amortize deferred financing costs for our remaining Unsecured Notes over the respective expected life or maturity. In the event that we modify or

57

PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


extinguish our debt before maturity, we follow the guidance in ASC 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments (“ASC 470-50”). For modifications to or exchanges of our Revolving Credit Facility, any unamortized deferred costs relating to lenders who are not part of the new lending group are expensed. For extinguishments of our Unsecured Notes, any unamortized deferred costs are deducted from the carrying amount of the debt in determining the gain or loss from the extinguishment.
Unamortized deferred financing costs are presented as a direct deduction to the respective Unsecured Notes (see Notes 5, 6, and 7).
We may record registration expenses related to shelf filings as prepaid expenses. These expenses consist principally of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) registration fees, legal fees and accounting fees incurred. These prepaid expenses are charged to capital upon the receipt of proceeds from an equity offering or charged to expense if no offering is completed. As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there are no prepaid expenses related to registration expenses and all amounts incurred have been expensed.
Guarantees and Indemnification Agreements
We follow ASC 460, Guarantees (“ASC 460”). ASC 460 elaborates on the disclosure requirements of a guarantor in its interim and annual consolidated financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, for those guarantees that are covered by ASC 460, the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees.
Per Share Information
Net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. In accordance with ASC 946, convertible securities are not considered in the calculation of net asset value per share.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which amends the financial instruments impairment guidance so that an entity is required to measure expected credit losses for financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. As such, an entity will use forward-looking information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 also amends the guidance in FASB ASC Subtopic No. 325-40, Investments-Other, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, related to the subsequent measurement of accretable yield recognized as interest income over the life of a beneficial interest in securitized financial assets under the effective yield method. ASU 2016-13 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The standard will modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of this ASU. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
On December 22, 2017, the President signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), which significantly changed the Code, including, a reduction in the corporate income tax rate, a new limitation on the deductibility of interest expense, and significant changes to the taxation of income earned from foreign sources and foreign subsidiaries. The Tax Act also authorizes the IRS to issue regulations with respect to the new provisions. We cannot predict how the changes in the Tax Act, or regulations or other guidance issued under it, might affect us, our business or the business of our portfolio companies. However, our portfolio companies may or may not make certain elections under the Tax Act that could materially increase their taxable earnings and profits. Any such increase in the earnings and profits of a portfolio company may result in the characterization of certain distributions sourced from sale proceeds as dividend income, which may increase our distributable taxable income.

Transfers are assumed to have occurred at the beginning of the quarter during which the asset was transferred.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the net change in unrealized losses on the investments that use Level 3 inputs was ($370,612) and ($131,870) for investments still held as of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.

Impact of the novel coronavirus (“Wuhan Virus”) pandemic
The U.S. capital markets are experiencing a period of extreme volatility and disruption. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (the "Wuhan Virus") surfaced in Wuhan, China and the World Health Organization has declared a global pandemic, the United States has declared a national emergency and for the first time in its history, every state in the United States is under a federal disaster declaration. Many states, including those in which we and our portfolio companies operate, have issued orders requiring the closure of non-essential businesses and/or requiring residents to stay at home. The Wuhan Virus pandemic and preventative measures taken to contain or mitigate its spread have caused, and are continuing to cause, business shutdowns, cancellations of events and travel, significant reductions in demand for certain goods and services, reductions in business activity and financial transactions, supply chain interruptions and overall economic and financial market instability both globally and in the United States. Such effects will likely continue for the duration of the pandemic, which is uncertain, and for some period thereafter.
The Wuhan Virus pandemic (including the preventative measures taken in response thereto) has to date (i) created significant business disruption issues for certain of our portfolio companies, and (ii) materially and adversely impacted the value and performance of certain of our portfolio companies and SSN investments. The Wuhan Virus pandemic is having a particularly

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)(Continued)
(in thousands, except share and per share data)


adverse impact on industries in which certain of our portfolio companies operate, including energy, hospitality, travel, retail and restaurants. Certain of our portfolio companies in other industries have also been significantly impacted. The Wuhan Virus pandemic is continuing as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report, and its extended duration may have further adverse impacts on our portfolio companies and SSN investments after March 31, 2020, including for the reasons described herein. Although on March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which contains provisions intended to mitigate the adverse economic effects of the Wuhan Virus pandemic, it is uncertain whether, or how much, our portfolio companies will be able to benefit from the CARES Act or any other subsequent legislation intended to provide financial relief or assistance. As a result of this disruption and the pressures on their liquidity, certain of our portfolio companies have been, or may continue to be, incentivized to draw on most, if not all, of the unfunded portion of any revolving or delayed draw term loans made by us, subject to availability under the terms of such loans.
As a BDC, we are required to carry our investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors. Depending on market conditions, we could incur substantial losses in future periods, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.     
Although it is difficult to predict the extent of the impact of the Wuhan Virus outbreak on the underlying CLO vehicles we invest in, the failure by a CLO vehicle to satisfy certain financial covenants, including with respect to adequate collateralization and/or interest coverage tests, could lead to a reduction in its payments to us. In the event the CLO vehicle fails certain tests, holders of debt senior to us may be entitled to additional payments that would, in turn, reduce the payments we would otherwise be entitled to receive. Separately, we may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms with a defaulting CLO vehicle or any other investment we may make. If any of these occur, it could materially and adversely affect our operating results and cash flows.
The Wuhan Virus pandemic has adversely impacted the fair value of our investments as of March 31, 2020, and the values assigned as of this date may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize with respect to our investments. The impact of the Wuhan Virus pandemic may not yet be fully reflected in the valuation of our investments as our valuations, and particularly valuations of private investments and private companies, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and are often based on estimates, comparisons and qualitative evaluations of private information that is often from a time period earlier, generally two to three months, than the quarter for which we are reporting. Additionally, we may not have yet received information or certifications from our portfolio companies that indicate any or the full extent of declining performance or non-compliance with debt covenants, as applicable, as a result of the Wuhan Virus pandemic. As a result, our valuations at March 31, 2020 may not show the complete or continuing impact of the Wuhan Virus pandemic and the resulting measures taken in response thereto. In addition, write downs in the value of our investments have reduced, and any additional write downs may further reduce, our net asset value (and, as a result, our asset coverage calculation). Accordingly, we may continue to incur additional net unrealized losses or may incur realized losses after March 31, 2020, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, management and the independent valuation firm look at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. In determining the range of values for debt instruments where market quotations are not available, except CLOs and debt investments in controlling portfolio companies, management and the independent valuation firm estimated corporate and security credit ratings and identified corresponding yields to maturity for each loan from relevant market data. A discounted cash flow technique was then applied using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, to determine a range of values. In determining the range of values for debt investments of controlled companies and equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying a market approach such as using earnings before income interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples, net income and/or book value multiples for similar guideline public companies and/or similar recent investment transactions and/or an income approach, such as the discounted cash flow technique. The enterprise value technique may also be used to value debt investments which are credit impaired. For stressed debt and equity investments, an asset recovery analysis was used.
In determining the range of values for our investments in CLOs, the independent valuation firm uses a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The valuations were accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view as well as to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows for the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market and certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the corresponding multi-path cash flow model.
Our portfolio consists of residual interests and debt investments in CLOs, which involve a number of significant risks. CLOs are typically very highly levered (10 - 14 times), and therefore the residual interest tranches that we invest in are subject to a higher degree of risk of total loss. In particular, investors in CLO residual interests indirectly bear risks of the underlying loan investments held by such CLOs. We generally have the right to receive payments only from the CLOs, and generally do not have direct rights against the underlying borrowers or the entity that sponsored the CLOs. While the CLOs we target generally enable the investor to acquire interests in a pool of senior loans without the expenses associated with directly holding the same investments, the prices of indices and securities underlying our CLOs will rise or fall. These prices (and, therefore, the prices of the CLOs) will be influenced by the same types of political and economic events that affect issuers of securities and capital markets generally. The failure by a CLO investment in which we invest to satisfy financial covenants, including with respect to adequate collateralization and/or interest coverage tests, could lead to a reduction in its payments to us. In the event that a CLO fails certain tests, holders of debt senior to us would be entitled to additional payments that would, in turn, reduce the payments we would otherwise be entitled to receive. Separately, we may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new

(in thousands, except share and per share data)


terms with a defaulting CLO or any other investment we may make. If any of these occur, it could materially and adversely affect our operating results and cash flows.
The interests we have acquired in CLOs are generally thinly traded or have only a limited trading market. CLOs are typically privately offered and sold, even in the secondary market. As a result, investments in CLOs may be characterized as illiquid securities. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in debt securities, CLO residual interests carry additional risks, including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) our investments in CLO tranches will likely be subordinate to other senior classes of note tranches thereof; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the CLO investment or unexpected investment results. Our net asset value may also decline over time if our principal recovery with respect to CLO residual interests is less than the cost of those investments. Our CLO investments and/or the CLOs’ underlying senior secured loans may prepay more quickly than expected, which could have an adverse impact on our value.
An increase in LIBOR would materially increase the CLO’s financing costs. Since most of the collateral positions within the CLOs have LIBOR floors, there may not be corresponding increases in investment income (if LIBOR increases but stays below the LIBOR floor rate of such investments) resulting in materially smaller distribution payments to the residual interest investors.
On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of the LIBOR rates after 2021 (the “FCA Announcement”). Furthermore, in the United States, efforts to identify a set of alternative U.S. dollar reference interest rates include proposals by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. On August 24, 2017, the Federal Reserve Board requested public comment on a proposal by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, in cooperation with the Office of Financial Research, to produce three new reference rates intended to serve as alternatives to LIBOR. These alternative rates are based on overnight repurchase agreement transactions secured by U.S. Treasury Securities. On December 12, 2017, following consideration of public comments, the Federal Reserve Board concluded that the public would benefit if the Federal Reserve Bank of New York published the three proposed reference rates as alternatives to LIBOR (the “Federal Reserve Board Notice”). The Federal Reserve Bank of New York said that the publication of these alternative rates is targeted to commence by mid-2018.
At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of the FCA Announcement, the Federal Reserve Board Notice, or other regulatory changes or announcements, any establishment of alternative reference rates or any other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in the United Kingdom, the United States or elsewhere. As such, the potential effect of any such event on our net investment income cannot yet be determined. The CLOs in which the Company is invested generally contemplate a scenario where LIBOR is no longer available by requiring the CLO administrator to calculate a replacement rate primarily through dealer polling on the applicable measurement date. However, there is uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of the dealer polling processes, including the willingness of banks to provide such quotations, which could adversely impact our net investment income. In addition, the effect of a phase out of LIBOR on U.S. senior secured loans, the underlying assets of the CLOs in which we invest, is currently unclear. To the extent that any replacement rate utilized for senior secured loans differs from that utilized for a CLO that holds those loans, the CLO would experience an interest rate mismatch between its assets and liabilities which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s net investment income and portfolio returns.
We hold more than a 10% interest in certain foreign corporations that are treated as controlled foreign corporations (“CFC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (including our residual interest tranche investments in CLOs). Therefore, we are treated as receiving a deemed distribution (taxable as ordinary income) each year from such foreign corporations in an amount equal to our pro rata share of the corporation’s income for that tax year (including both ordinary earnings and capital gains). We are required to include such deemed distributions from a CFC in our taxable income and we are required to distribute at least 90% of such income to maintain our RIC status, regardless of whether or not the CFC makes an actual distribution during such year.
If we acquire shares in “passive foreign investment companies” (“PFICs”) (including residual interest tranche investments in CLOs that are PFICs), we may be subject to federal income tax on a portion of any “excess distribution” or gain from the disposition of such shares even if such income is distributed as a taxable dividend to our stockholders. Certain elections may be available to mitigate or eliminate such tax on excess distributions, but such elections (if available) will generally require us to recognize our share of the PFIC’s income for each year regardless of whether we receive any distributions from such PFICs. We must nonetheless distribute such income to maintain our status as a RIC.
Legislation enacted in 2010 imposes a withholding tax of 30% on payments of U.S. source interest and dividends paid after December 31, 2013, or gross proceeds from the disposition of an instrument that produces U.S. source interest or dividends paid after December 31, 2016, to certain non-U.S. entities, including certain non-U.S. financial institutions and investment funds, unless

Most CLOs in which we invest will be treated as non-U.S. financial entities for this purpose, and therefore will be required to comply with these reporting requirements to avoid the 30% withholding. If a CLO in which we invest fails to properly comply with these reporting requirements, it could reduce the amounts available to distribute to residual interest and junior debt holders in such CLO vehicle, which could materially and adversely affect our operating results and cash flows.
If we are required to include amounts in income prior to receiving distributions representing such income, we may have to sell some of our investments at times and/or at prices management would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or forgo new investment opportunities for this purpose.
The significant unobservable input used to value our investments based on the yield technique and discounted cash flow technique is the market yield (or applicable discount rate) used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which includes both future principal and interest/dividend payments. Increases or decreases in the market yield (or applicable discount rate) would result in a decrease or increase, respectively, in the fair value measurement. Management and the independent valuation firms consider the following factors when selecting market yields or discount rates: risk of default, rating of the investment and comparable company investments, and call provisions.
The significant unobservable inputs used to value our investments based on the EV analysis may include market multiples of specified financial measures such as EBITDA, net income, or book value of identified guideline public companies, implied valuation multiples from precedent M&A transactions, and/or discount rates applied in a discounted cash flow technique. The independent valuation firm identifies a population of publicly traded companies with similar operations and key attributes to that of the portfolio company. Using valuation and operating metrics of these guideline public companies and/or as implied by relevant precedent transactions, a range of multiples of the latest twelve months EBITDA, or other measure such as net income or book value, is typically calculated. The independent valuation firm utilizes the determined multiples to estimate the portfolio company’s EV generally based on the latest twelve months EBITDA of the portfolio company (or other meaningful measure). Increases or decreases in the multiple would result in an increase or decrease, respectively, in EV which would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value measurement of the debt of controlled companies and/or equity investment, as applicable. In certain instances, a discounted cash flow analysis may be considered in estimating EV, in which case, discount rates based on a weighted average cost of capital and application of the capital asset pricing model may be utilized.
The significant unobservable input used to value our private REIT investments based on the net asset value analysis is the capitalization rate applied to the earnings measure of the underlying property. Increases or decreases in the capitalization rate would result in a decrease or increase, respectively, in the fair value measurement.
Changes in market yields, discount rates, capitalization rates or EBITDA multiples, each in isolation, may change the fair value measurement of certain of our investments. Generally, an increase in market yields, discount rates or capitalization rates, or a decrease in EBITDA (or other) multiples may result in a decrease in the fair value measurement of certain of our investments.
Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it.
In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the currently assigned valuations.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the valuation methodology for Staples, Inc. (“Staples”) changed to incorporate the yield technique. As a result of an increase in observed credit spreads, the fair value of our investment in Staples decreased to $8,106 as of March 31, 2020, a discount of $786 from its amortized cost, compared to the $14 unrealized depreciation recorded as of December 31, 2019.

Unconsolidated Significant Subsidiaries
Our investments are generally in small and mid-sized companies in a variety of industries. In accordance with Regulation S-X 3-09 and Regulation S-X 4-08(g), we must determine which of our unconsolidated controlled portfolio companies are considered “significant subsidiaries,” if any. In evaluating these investments, there are three tests utilized to determine if any of our controlled investments are considered significant subsidiaries: the asset test, the income test and the investment test. Regulation S-X 3-09 requires separate audited financial statements of an unconsolidated subsidiary in an annual report if any of the three tests exceed 20%. Regulation S-X 4-08(g) requires summarized financial information in an annual report if any of the three tests exceeds 10%.
Pursuant to Regulation S-X 10-01(b), Interim Financial Statements, summarized interim income statement information is required for an unconsolidated subsidiary within a quarterly report if the unconsolidated subsidiary would otherwise require separate audited financial statements within an annual report pursuant to Regulation S-X 3-09.

The SEC has requested comments on the proper mechanics of how the calculations related to Regulation S-X 3-09 and Regulation S-X 4-08(g) should be completed. There is currently diversity in practice for the calculations. We expect that the SEC will clarify the calculation methods in the future.
Note 4. Revolving Credit Facility
On August 29, 2014, we renegotiated our previous credit facility and closed an expanded five and a half year revolving credit facility (the “2014 Facility”). The lenders had extended commitments of $885,000 under the 2014 Facility as of June 30, 2018. The 2014 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to $1,500,000 in the aggregate. Interest on borrowings under the 2014 Facility was one-month LIBOR plus 225 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charged a fee on the unused portion of the 2014 Facility equal to either 50 basis points if at least 35% of the credit facility was drawn or 100 basis points otherwise.
On August 1, 2018, we renegotiated the 2014 Facility and closed an expanded five and a half year revolving credit (the “2018 Facility”). The lenders had extended commitments of $1,132,500 as of June 30, 2019. The 2018 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to $1,500,000 in the aggregate.

On September 9, 2019, we amended the 2018 Facility and closed an expanded revolving credit facility (the “2019 Facility” and collectively with the 2014 Facility and the 2018 Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The lenders had extended commitments of $1,077,500 as of March 31, 2020. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an accordion feature which allows commitments to be increased up to $1,500,000 in the aggregate. The Revolving Credit Facility Facility matures on September 9, 2024. It includes a revolving period that extends through September 9, 2023, followed by an additional one-year amortization period, with distributions allowed to Prospect after the completion of the revolving period. During such one-year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one-year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements. The Revolving Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires the maintenance of a minimum liquidity requirement. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants.
Interest on borrowings under the 2019 Facility is one-month LIBOR plus 220 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the credit facility equal to either 50 basis points if more than 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 100 basis points if more than 35% and an amount less than or equal to 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 150 basis points if an amount less than or equal to 35% of the credit facility is drawn. The 2019 Facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the average stated interest rate (i.e., rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were as follows:

These assets are held and owned by PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and, as such, these investments are not available to our general creditors. As additional eligible investments are transferred to PCF and pledged under the Revolving Credit Facility, PCF will generate additional availability up to the current commitment amount of $1,077,500. The release of any assets from PCF requires the approval of the facility agent.
In connection with the origination and amendments of the Revolving Credit Facility, we incurred $10,904 of new fees and $7,787 were carried over for continuing participants from the previous facilities, all of which are being amortized over the term of the facility in accordance with ASC 470-50. As of March 31, 2020, $9,688 remains to be amortized and is reflected as deferred financing costs on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, $398 of fees were expensed relating to credit providers in the 2018 Facility who did not commit to the 2019 Facility.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we recorded $5,867 and $6,209, respectively, of interest costs, unused fees and amortization of financing costs on the Revolving Credit Facility as interest expense. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we recorded $16,841 and $17,535, respectively, of interest costs, unused fees and amortization of financing costs on the Revolving Credit Facility as interest expense.

We may from time to time seek to cancel or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved may be material. In addition, we may from time to time enter into additional debt facilities, increase the size of existing facilities or issue additional debt securities, including secured debt, unsecured debt and/or debt securities convertible into common stock. Any such purchases or exchanges of outstanding debt would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors.
Note 9. Stock Repurchase Program, Equity Offerings, Offering Expenses, and Distributions
On August 24, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan (the “Repurchase Program”) under which we may repurchase up to $100,000 of our common stock at prices below our net asset value per share. Prior to any repurchase, we are required to notify shareholders of our intention to purchase our common stock. Our last notice was delivered with our annual proxy mailing on September 19, 2019.
We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the Repurchase Program is $65,860.
On February 13, 2020, we filed a registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-236415) that was effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act as permitted under the Small Business Credit Availability Act. The registration statement permits us to issue, through one or more transactions, an indeterminate amount of securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, subscription rights to purchase our securities, warrants representing rights to purchase our securities or separately tradeable units combining two or more of our securities.
Excluding dividend reinvestments, during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we did not issue any shares of our common stock.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we distributed approximately $198,455 and $197,555, respectively, to our stockholders. The following table summarizes our distributions declared and payable for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020.

Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. As such, the table above includes distributions with record dates during nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019. It does not include distributions previously declared to stockholders of record on any future dates, as those amounts are not yet determinable. The following dividends were previously declared and will be recorded and payable subsequent to March 31, 2020:
$0.06 per share for April 2020 holders of record on April 30, 2020 with a payment date of May 21, 2020.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we issued 686,901 and 2,475,036 shares of our common stock, respectively, in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan.
On February 9, 2016, we amended our dividend reinvestment plan that provided for reinvestment of our dividends or distributions on behalf of our stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash, to add the ability of stockholders to purchase additional shares by making optional cash investments. Under the revised dividend reinvestment and direct stock repurchase plan, stockholders may elect to purchase additional shares through our transfer agent in the open market or in negotiated transactions.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, Prospect officers and directors purchased 29,682,307 shares of our stock, or 8.07% of total outstanding shares as of March 31, 2020, both through the open market transactions and shares issued in connection with our dividend reinvestment plan.
As of March 31, 2020, we have reserved 58,472,418 shares of our common stock for issuance upon conversion of the Convertible Notes (see Note 5).

Note 12. Income Taxes
While our fiscal year end for financial reporting purposes is June 30 of each year, our tax year end is August 31 of each year. The information presented in this footnote is based on our tax year end for each period presented, unless otherwise specified. The tax return for the tax year ended August 31, 2019 has not been filed. Taxable income and all amounts related to taxable income for the tax year ended August 31, 2019 are estimates and will not be fully determined until the Company’s tax return is filed.
For income tax purposes, dividends paid and distributions made to shareholders are reported as ordinary income, capital gains, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the tax years ended August 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 were as follows:

We generate certain types of income that may be exempt from U.S. withholding tax when distributed to non-U.S. shareholders. Under IRC Section 871(k), a RIC is permitted to designate distributions of qualified interest income and short-term capital gains as exempt from U.S. withholding tax when paid to non-U.S. shareholders with proper documentation. For the 2020 calendar year, 45.47% of our distributions as of March 31, 2020 qualified as interest related dividends which are exempt from U.S. withholding tax applicable to non-U.S. shareholders.

For the tax year ending August 31, 2020, the tax character of dividends paid to shareholders through March 31, 2020 is expected to be ordinary income. However, due to the difference between our fiscal and tax year ends, the final determination of the tax character of dividends between ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital will not be made until we file our tax return for the tax year ending August 31, 2020.

Taxable income generally differs from net increase in net assets resulting from operations for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized gains or losses, as unrealized gains or losses are generally not included in taxable income until they are realized.

Capital losses in excess of capital gains earned in a tax year may generally be carried forward and used to offset capital gains, subject to certain limitations. As of August 31, 2019, we had capital loss carryforwards of approximately $193,893 available for use in later tax years. The unused balance each year will be carried forward and utilized as gains are realized, subject to limitations. While our ability to utilize losses in the future depends upon a variety of factors that cannot be known in advance, some of the Company’s capital loss carryforwards may become permanently unavailable due to limitations by the Code.
For the tax year ended August 31, 2019, we had no cumulative taxable income in excess of cumulative distributions.
As of March 31, 2020, the cost basis of investments for tax purposes was $5,800,880 resulting in an estimated net unrealized loss of $656,338. As of March 31, 2020, the gross unrealized gains and losses were $610,442 and $1,266,780, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, the cost basis of investments for tax purposes was $5,905,269 resulting in an estimated net unrealized loss of $251,716. As of June 30, 2019, the gross unrealized gains and losses were $595,002 and $846,718, respectively. Due to the difference between our fiscal year end and tax year end, the cost basis of our investments for tax purposes as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was calculated based on the book cost of investments as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, with cumulative book-to-tax adjustments for investments through August 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
In general, we may make certain adjustments to the classification of net assets as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, which may include merger-related items, differences in the book and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities, and nondeductible federal excise taxes, among other items. During the tax year ended August 31, 2019, we decreased overdistributed net investment income by $78 and decreased capital in excess of par value by $78. During the tax year ended August 31, 2018, we decreased overdistributed net investment income by $31 and decreased capital in excess of par value by $31. Due to the difference between our fiscal and tax year end, the reclassifications for the taxable year ended August 31, 2019 is being recorded in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020 and the reclassifications for the taxable year ended August 31, 2018 were recorded in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
Note 13. Related Party Agreements and Transactions
Investment Advisory Agreement
We have entered into an investment advisory and management agreement with the Investment Adviser (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) under which the Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser: (i) determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments we make (including performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies); and (iii) closes and monitors investments we make.
The Investment Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its services to us are not impaired. For providing these services the Investment Adviser receives a fee from us, consisting of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2.00% on our total assets. For services currently rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter.

The total gross base management fee incurred to the favor of the Investment Adviser was $26,625 and $29,540 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The total gross base management fee incurred to the favor of the Investment Advisor was $82,631 and $92,794 during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The total gross base management fee for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 included a $2,757 adjustment for fees earned in prior periods that were neither expensed nor paid to the Investment Adviser, for which we incurred $64 in accrued interest on those past due amounts. The interest on the amount owed to the Investment Adviser was calculated using the average of 1-month LIBOR rates from September 2010 through the date of payment. The Investment Adviser has entered into a servicing agreement with certain institutions that purchased loans with us, where we serve as the agent and collect a servicing fee on behalf of the Investment Adviser. We receive payments from these institutions on behalf of the Investment Adviser, for providing such services under the servicing agreement. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the base management fee payable by us to the Investment Adviser. We received payments of $110 from these institutions for the nine months ended March 31, 2019, resulting in a net base management fee of $92,684 for the prior year to date period. There was no such adjustment in the nine months ended March 31, 2020.
The incentive fee has two parts. The first part, the income incentive fee, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees and other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement described below, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital gains or losses. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized).
The net investment income used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the gross assets used to calculate the 2.00% base management fee. We pay the Investment Adviser an income incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows: 
No incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate;
100.00% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate); and
20.00% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate).
These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.

The second part of the incentive fee, the capital gains incentive fee, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 20.00% of our realized capital gains for the calendar year, if any, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation at the end of such year. In determining the capital gains incentive fee payable to the Investment Adviser, we calculate the aggregate realized capital gains, aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate unrealized capital depreciation, as applicable, with respect to each investment that has been in our portfolio. For the purpose of this calculation, an “investment” is defined as the total of all rights and claims which may be asserted against a portfolio company arising from our participation in the debt, equity, and other financial instruments issued by that company. Aggregate realized capital gains, if any, equal the sum of the differences between the aggregate net sales price of each investment and the aggregate amortized cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate realized capital losses equal the sum of the amounts by which the aggregate net sales price of each investment is less than the aggregate amortized cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate unrealized capital depreciation equals the sum of the differences, if negative, between the aggregate valuation of each investment and the aggregate amortized cost basis of such investment as of the applicable calendar year-end. At the end of the applicable calendar year, the amount of capital gains that serves as the basis for our calculation of the capital gains incentive fee involves netting aggregate realized capital gains against aggregate realized capital losses on a since-inception basis and then reducing this amount by the aggregate unrealized capital depreciation. If this number is positive, then the capital gains incentive fee payable is equal to 20.00% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains incentive fees paid since inception.
The total income incentive fee incurred was $17,119 and $19,315 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.

Administration Agreement
We have also entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with Prospect Administration under which Prospect Administration, among other things, provides (or arranges for the provision of) administrative services and facilities for us. For providing these services, we reimburse Prospect Administration for our allocable portion of overhead incurred by Prospect Administration in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the costs of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and her staff, including the internal legal staff. Under this agreement, Prospect Administration furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Prospect Administration also performs, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, Prospect Administration assists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. Under the Administration Agreement, Prospect Administration also provides on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance (see Managerial Assistance section below). The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. Prospect Administration is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser.
The Administration Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, Prospect Administration and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of Prospect Administration’s services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for us. Our payments to Prospect Administration are reviewed quarterly by our Board of Directors.
The allocation of net overhead expense from Prospect Administration was $4,096 and $2,084 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.
The allocation of net overhead expense from Prospect Administration was $13,601 and $11,091 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. Prospect Administration received estimated payments of $1,225 and $607 directly from our portfolio companies, and certain funds managed by the Investment Adviser for legal services during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the administrative services cost payable by us to Prospect Administration. Had Prospect Administration not received these payments, Prospect Administration’s charges for its administrative services would have increased by this amount.

Managerial Assistance
As a BDC, we are obligated under the 1940 Act to make available to certain of our portfolio companies significant managerial assistance. “Making available significant managerial assistance” refers to any arrangement whereby we provide significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations, or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company. We are also deemed to be providing managerial assistance to all portfolio companies that we control, either by ourselves or in conjunction with others. The nature and extent of significant managerial assistance provided by us to controlled and non-controlled portfolio companies will vary according to the particular needs of each portfolio company. Examples of such activities include (i) advice on recruiting, hiring, management and termination of employees, officers and directors, succession planning and other human resource matters; (ii) advice on capital raising, capital budgeting, and capital expenditures; (iii) advice on advertising, marketing, and sales; (iv) advice on fulfillment, operations, and execution; (v) advice on managing relationships with unions and other personnel organizations, financing sources, vendors, customers, lessors, lessees, lawyers, accountants, regulators and other important counterparties; (vi) evaluating acquisition and divestiture opportunities, plant expansions and closings, and market expansions; (vii) participating in audit committee, nominating committee, board and management meetings; (viii) consulting with and advising board members and officers of portfolio companies (on overall strategy and other matters); and (ix) providing other organizational, operational, managerial and financial guidance.
Prospect Administration, when performing a managerial assistance agreement executed with each portfolio company to which we provide managerial assistance, arranges for the provision of such managerial assistance on our behalf. When doing so, Prospect Administration utilizes personnel of our Investment Adviser. We, on behalf of Prospect Administration, invoice portfolio companies receiving and paying for managerial assistance, and we remit to Prospect Administration its cost of providing such services, including the charges deemed appropriate by our Investment Adviser for providing such managerial assistance. No income is recognized by Prospect.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we received payments of $2,010 and $1,353, respectively, from our portfolio companies for managerial assistance and subsequently remitted these amounts to Prospect Administration. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we received payments of $3,310 and $6,299, respectively, from our portfolio companies for managerial assistance and subsequently remitted these amounts to Prospect Administration.
Co-Investments
On January 13, 2020, we received an exemptive order from the SEC (the “Order”), which superseded a prior co-investment exemptive order granted on February 10, 2014, that gave us the ability to negotiate terms other than price and quantity of co-investment transactions with other funds managed or owned by the Investment Adviser or certain affiliates, including Priority Income Fund, Inc. and TP Flexible Income Fund, Inc.,where co-investing would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act, subject to the conditions included therein. 
Under the terms of the Order, a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors must make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our investment objective and strategies. In certain situations where a co-investment with one or more funds managed or owned by the Investment Adviser or its affiliates is not covered by the Order, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in different securities of the same issuer, the personnel of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates will need to decide which fund will proceed with the investment. Such personnel will make these determinations based on policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. Moreover, except in certain circumstances, when relying on the Order, we will be unable to invest in any issuer in which one or more funds managed or owned by the Investment Adviser or its affiliates has previously invested.
We reimburse CLO investment valuation services fees initially incurred by Priority Income Fund, Inc. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we recognized expenses that were reimbursed for valuation services of $36 and $52, respectively. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we recognized expenses that were reimbursed for valuation services of $123 and $155, respectively. Conversely, Priority Income Fund, Inc. and TP Flexible Income Fund, Inc. reimburse us for software fees, expenses which were initially incurred by Prospect. As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, we accrued a receivable from Priority Income Fund, Inc. and TP Flexible Income Fund, Inc. for software fees of $36 and $32, respectively, which will be reimbursed to us.

National Property REIT Corp.
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of NPH, a Consolidated Holding Company. NPH owns 100% of the common equity of NPRC. Effective May 23, 2016, in connection with the merger of APRC and UPRC with and into NPRC, APH and UPH merged with and into NPH, and were dissolved.
NPRC is a Maryland corporation and a qualified REIT for federal income tax purposes. In order to qualify as a REIT, NPRC issued 125 shares of Series A Cumulative Non-Voting Preferred Stock to 125 accredited investors. The preferred stockholders are entitled to receive cumulative dividends semi-annually at an annual rate of 12.5% and do not have the ability to participate in the management or operation of NPRC.
NPRC was formed to hold for investment, operate, finance, lease, manage, and sell a portfolio of real estate assets and engage in any and all other activities as may be necessary, incidental or convenient to carry out the foregoing. NPRC acquires real estate assets, including, but not limited to, industrial, commercial, and multi-family properties. NPRC may acquire real estate assets directly or through joint ventures by making a majority equity investment in a property-owning entity (the “JV”). Additionally, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, NPRC invests in online consumer loans.
On July 19, 2018, Prospect purchased additional common equity of NPRC through NPH for $6,921. NPRC utilized $138 of proceeds provided to pay a structuring fee to Prospect (which was recognized by Prospect as structuring fee income). NPRC utilized $6,697 of proceeds provided by Prospect to purchase a 90% interest in Falling Creek Holdings LLC. The remaining $86 was retained as working capital by NPRC. The minority interest holder purchased ownership interest in the JV for $744. The JV utilized the total proceeds, which included debt financing of $19,335, to acquire a $25,000 multi-family real estate asset. The remaining proceeds were used by the JV to pay $134 of structuring fees to NPRC, $709 of third-party expenses, $430 of pre-funded capital expenditures, $312 of prepaid assets, and $191 was retained by the JV as working capital.

On September 20, 2018, Prospect purchased additional common equity of NPRC through NPH for $3,285. NPRC utilized $66 of proceeds provided to pay a structuring fee to Prospect (which was recognized by Prospect as structuring fee income). NPRC applied the remaining proceeds provided by Prospect to purchase $3,284 of additional ownership interest in a JV entity. The JV utilized the total proceeds, which included debt financing of $7,300, to acquire a $9,600 multi-family real estate asset. The remaining proceeds were used by the JV to pay $79 of structuring fees to NPRC, $277 of third-party expenses, $20 of pre-funded capital expenditures, $482 of prepaid assets, and $126 was retained by the JV as working capital.

On October 19, 2018, Prospect purchased additional common equity of NPRC through NPH for $1,376. NPRC applied the proceeds to purchase $1,376 of additional ownership interest in multiple JV entities that own 9 multi-family properties and retained $1 as working capital. The minority interest holder also contributed $35 of additional capital in the JV entities. The proceeds were utilized by the JV entities to fund $1,411 of capital expenditures.

Effective December 31, 2018, we amended and restated the terms of our credit agreement with NPRC. As part of the amendment, we increased our investment through a New Term Loan A Secured Note (“New TLA”) in the aggregate principal amount of $433,553 and a New Term Loan B Secured Note (“New TLB”) in the aggregate principal amount of $205,000. NPRC utilized a portion of the proceeds from the New TLA and New TLB to repay the previously outstanding Senior Secured Term Loan A and Senior Secured Term Loan E. The remaining proceeds of $140,351 were returned to us as a return of capital, reducing our equity investment in NPRC.
During the year ended June 30, 2019, we provided $10,206 of equity financing to NPRC for the acquisition of real estate properties and $1,377 of equity financing to NPRC to fund capital expenditures for existing real estate properties.
During the year ended June 30, 2019, we received partial repayments of $54,181 of our loans previously outstanding with NPRC and its wholly owned subsidiary and $15,000 as a return of capital on our equity investment in NPRC.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, we received partial repayments of $235,019 of our loans previously outstanding with NPRC, and provided $19,590 of equity financing and $78,359 of debt financing to NPRC to fund purchases of rated secured structured notes, expenses and structuring fees.
Effective October 31, 2019, we amended the terms of our credit agreement to increase our investment in NPRC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries through a new Senior Secured Term Loan C (“TLC”). During the three months ended December 31, 2019, we provided $51,428 and $12,857 in TLC and equity financing, respectively.

Wolf Energy, LLC
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of Wolf Energy Holdings Inc. (“Wolf Energy Holdings”), a Consolidated Holding Company.
Wolf Energy Holdings owns 100% of each of Appalachian Energy LLC (f/k/a Appalachian Energy Holdings, LLC) (“AEH”);
Coalbed, LLC (“Coalbed”); and Wolf Energy, LLC (“Wolf Energy”). AEH owns 100% of C&S Operating, LLC.

Wolf Energy Holdings is a holding company formed to hold 100% of the outstanding membership interests of each of AEH and
Coalbed. The membership interests and associated operating company debt of AEH and Coalbed, which were previously owned
by Manx Energy, Inc. (“Manx”), were assigned to Wolf Energy Holdings effective June 30, 2012. The purpose of assignment was to remove those activities from Manx deemed non-core by the Manx convertible debt investors who were not interested in funding those operations. On June 30, 2012, AEH and Coalbed loans, with a cost basis of $7,991, were assigned by Prospect to Wolf Energy Holdings from Manx.

During the six months ended December 31, 2018, Wolf Energy Services received $58 from the sale of assets.

In December 2019, Wolf Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Wolf Energy Holdings”), our Consolidated Holding Company that previously owned 100% of Appalachian Energy LLC (“AEH”); Wolf Energy Services Company, LLC (Wolf Energy Services”); and Wolf Energy, LLC (collectively our previously controlled membership interest and net profit interest investments in “Wolf Energy”), merged with and into CP Energy, with CP Energy continuing as the surviving entity. CP Energy acquired 100% of our equity in Wolf Energy, which is reflected in our valuation of CP Energy common stock as of December 31, 2019. During the six months ended December 31, 2019, the cost basis in Wolf Energy Holdings of $3,914 was transferred to CP Energy.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, cash distributions of $18 that were declared and paid from Wolf to Prospect were recognized as a return of capital by Prospect.

Note 15. Litigation
From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of such matters as may arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.
In 2018, Prospect and Pacific World filed lawsuits against certain third parties in connection with a loan Prospect made to Pacific World in 2014. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, these and certain related matters were settled, and Prospect received $11,000 in settlement proceeds. The settlement was a voluntary compromise of the lawsuits, and none of the defendants admitted or acknowledged any wrongdoing.

We are not aware of any material legal proceedings as of March 31, 2020.

Note 18. Subsequent Events
During the period from April 1, 2020 through May 7, 2020 we issued $2,767 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® for net proceeds of $2,730.
On April 2, 2020, we made a new Second Lien Term Loan investment of $10,000 in AmeriLife Holdings, LLC, an independent marketing organization specializing in the marketing and distribution of senior life insurance, health insurance, and fixed annuity policies, in support of an acquisition of the business.
On April 13, 2020, the Company elected to rely upon, and be subject to (the “Election”), section II of the Order Under Sections 6(c), 17(d), 38(a) and 57(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 Thereunder Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Investment Company Act and Certain Rules Thereunder, 1940 Act Release No. 33837 (Apr. 8, 2020) (the “April 2020 Order”). The Election affords the Company greater flexibility in calculating its asset coverage ratios for purposes of sections 18(a)(1)(A) and 18(a)(2)(A) of the 1940 Act (as modified by sections 61(a)(1) and 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act) (the “Asset Coverage Requirements”). The Election does not change the Asset Coverage Requirements; however, it does change the manner in which the Company is permitted to calculate these ratios under section 18(b) of the 1940 Act. Under the April 2020 Order, the Company can use a modified formula to calculate its asset coverage ratios for purposes of the Asset Coverage Requirements and, in doing so, can rely in part on the fair value of its assets as of December 31, 2019. The overall effect of the Election is to make it easier for the Company to meet its applicable asset coverage ratios for purposes of the Asset Coverage Requirements, as well as for purposes of covenants referencing the Asset Coverage Requirements. The Election is effective through December 31, 2020 unless the Company withdraws it earlier.
On April 15, 2020, we repaid the outstanding principal amount of $127,711 of the 2020 Senior Convertible Notes, plus interest.
On April 17, 2020, the Board of Directors approved amendments to our dividend reinvestment plan, effective May 21, 2020, that principally provide for the number of newly-issued shares of our common stock used to implement reinvestment of dividends and distributions to be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such stockholder by 95% of the market price per share of our common stock at the close of regular trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the valuation date fixed by the Board of Directors for such distribution.

On March 30, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, and on May 5, 2020, at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved, the application to the Company of the reduced Asset Coverage Requirements in Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act. The application of the reduced Asset Coverage Requirement, which became effective on May 6, 2020, permits the Company, provided certain requirements are satisfied, to double the maximum amount of leverage that it is permitted to incur by reducing the Asset Coverage Requirement applicable to the Company from 200% to 150% (a 2:1 debt to equity ratio, as opposed to a 1:1 debt to equity ratio), as provided for in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, a successor provision to Section 61(a)(1) of the 1940 Act.
On April 20, 2020, the Company filed its notice of meeting and definitive proxy statement in connection with a special meeting of the Company's stockholders that is scheduled to be held on June 12, 2020 for the purpose of asking the Company's stockholders to vote on a proposal to authorize the Company, with approval of its Board of Directors, to sell shares of its common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below the Company’s then current net asset value per share in one or more offerings subject to certain conditions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
(All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data.)
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this Quarterly Report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from any results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to the factors discussed in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere herein.
Overview
The terms “Prospect,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Prospect Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise.

Prospect is a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company incorporated in Maryland. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). We were organized on April 13, 2004, and were funded in an initial public offering completed on July 27, 2004.

On May 15, 2007, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), a Delaware limited liability company and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are used as collateral for the revolving credit facility at PCF. Our wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Small Business Lending, LLC (“PSBL”) was formed on January 27, 2014, and purchases small business whole loans on a recurring basis from online small business loan originators, including On Deck Capital, Inc. (“OnDeck”). On September 30, 2014, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Yield Corporation, LLC (“PYC”) and effective October 23, 2014, PYC holds a portion of our investments in Rated Secured Structured Notes (“RSSN”) and Subordinated Structured Notes (“SSN”) (collectively referred to as “collateralized loan obligations” or “CLOs”). Each of these subsidiaries have been consolidated since operations commenced.
We consolidate certain of our wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us in order to facilitate our investment strategy. The following companies are included in our consolidated financial statements and are collectively referred to as the “Consolidated Holding Companies”: CP Holdings of Delaware LLC (“CP Holdings”); Credit Central Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Credit Central Delaware”); Energy Solutions Holdings Inc.; First Tower Holdings of Delaware LLC (“First Tower Delaware”); MITY Holdings of Delaware Inc. (“MITY Delaware”); Nationwide Acceptance Holdings LLC; NMMB Holdings, Inc. (“NMMB Holdings”); NPH Property Holdings, LLC (“NPH”); STI Holding, Inc.; UTP Holdings Group Inc. ( “UTP Holdings” Valley Electric Holdings I, Inc. (“Valley Holdings I”); and Valley Electric Holdings II, Inc. (“Valley Holdings II”).
We are externally managed by our investment adviser, Prospect Capital Management L.P. (“Prospect Capital Management” or the “Investment Adviser”). Prospect Administration LLC (“Prospect Administration”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser, provides administrative services and facilities necessary for us to operate.
Our investment objective is to generate both current income and long-term capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We invest primarily in senior and subordinated debt and equity of private companies in need of capital for acquisitions, divestitures, growth, development, recapitalizations and other purposes. We work with the management teams or financial sponsors to seek investments with historical cash flows, asset collateral or contracted pro forma cash flows.
We currently have nine strategies that guide our origination of investment opportunities: (1) lending to companies controlled by private equity sponsors, (2) lending to companies not controlled by private equity sponsors, (3) purchasing controlling equity positions and lending to operating companies, (4) purchasing controlling equity positions and lending to financial services companies, (5) purchasing controlling equity positions and lending to real estate companies, (6) purchasing controlling equity positions and lending to aircraft leasing companies, (7) investing in structured credit, (8) investing in syndicated debt, and (9) investing in consumer and small business loans and asset-backed securitizations. We may also invest in other strategies and opportunities from time to time that we view as attractive. We continue to evaluate other origination strategies in the ordinary course of business with no specific top-down allocation to any single origination strategy.
Lending to Companies Controlled by Private Equity Sponsors - We make agented loans to companies which are controlled by private equity sponsors. This debt can take the form of first lien, second lien, unitranche or unsecured loans. These loans typically have equity subordinate to our loan position. Historically, this strategy has comprised approximately 25%-50% of our portfolio.

110


Lending to Companies not Controlled by Private Equity Sponsors - We make loans to companies which are not controlled by private equity sponsors, such as companies that are controlled by the management team, the founder, a family or public shareholders. This origination strategy may have less competition to provide debt financing than the private-equity-sponsor origination strategy because such company financing needs are not easily addressed by banks and often require more diligence preparation. This origination strategy can result in investments with higher returns or lower leverage than the private-equity-sponsor origination strategy. Historically, this strategy has comprised less than 5% of our portfolio.
Purchasing Controlling Equity Positions and Lending to Operating Companies - This strategy involves purchasing yield-producing debt and controlling equity positions in non-financial-services operating companies. We believe that we can provide enhanced certainty of closure and liquidity to sellers and we look for management to continue on in their current roles. This strategy has comprised approximately 5%-10% of our portfolio.
Purchasing Controlling Equity Positions and Lending to Financial Services Companies - This strategy involves purchasing yield-producing debt and control equity investments in financial services companies, including consumer direct lending, sub-prime auto lending and other strategies. These investments are often structured in tax-efficient partnerships, enhancing returns. This strategy has comprised approximately 5%-15% of our portfolio.
Purchasing Controlling Equity Positions and Lending to Real Estate Companies - We purchase debt and controlling equity positions in tax-efficient real estate investment trusts (“REIT” or “REITs”). The real estate investments of National Property REIT Corp. (“NPRC”) are in various classes of developed and occupied real estate properties that generate current yields, including multi-family properties, student housing, and self-storage. NPRC seeks to identify properties that have historically significant occupancy rates and recurring cash flow generation. NPRC generally co-invests with established and experienced property management teams that manage such properties after acquisition. Additionally, NPRC purchases loans originated by certain consumer loan facilitators. It purchases each loan in its entirety (i.e., a “whole loan”). The borrowers are consumers, and the loans are typically serviced by the facilitators of the loans. This investment strategy has comprised approximately 10%-20% of our business.
Purchasing Controlling Equity Positions and Lending to Aircraft Leasing Companies - We invest in debt as well as equity in companies with aircraft assets subject to commercial leases to airlines across the globe. We believe that these investments can present attractive return opportunities due to cash flow consistency from long-term leases coupled with hard asset residual value. We believe that these investment companies seek to deliver risk-adjusted returns with strong downside protection by analyzing relative value characteristics across a variety of aircraft types and vintages. This strategy historically has comprised less than 5% of our portfolio.
Investing in Structured Credit - We make investments in CLOs, often taking a significant position in the subordinated interests (equity) and debt of the CLOs. The underlying portfolio of each CLO investment is diversified across approximately 100 to 200 broadly syndicated loans and does not have direct exposure to real estate, mortgages, or consumer-based credit assets. The CLOs in which we invest are managed by established collateral management teams with many years of experience in the industry. This strategy has comprised approximately 10%-20% of our portfolio.
Investing in Syndicated Debt - On a primary or secondary basis, we purchase primarily senior and secured loans and high yield bonds that have been sold to a club or syndicate of buyers. These investments are often purchased with a long term, buy-and-hold outlook, and we often look to provide significant input to the transaction by providing anchoring orders. This strategy has comprised approximately 10%-25% of our portfolio.
Investing in Consumer and Small Business Loans and Asset-Backed Securitizations - We purchase loans originated by certain consumer and small-and-medium-sized business (“SME”) loan platforms. We generally purchase each loan in its entirety (i.e., a “whole loan”) and we invest in asset-backed securitizations collateralized by consumer or small business loans. The borrowers are consumers and SMEs and the loans are typically serviced by the platforms of the loans. This investment strategy has comprised up to approximately 0% of our portfolio.
We invest primarily in first and second lien secured loans and unsecured debt, which in some cases includes an equity component. First and second lien secured loans generally are senior debt instruments that rank ahead of unsecured debt of a given portfolio company. These loans also have the benefit of security interests on the assets of the portfolio company, which may rank ahead of or be junior to other security interests. Our investments in CLOs are subordinated to senior loans and are generally unsecured. We invest in debt and equity positions of CLOs which are a form of securitization in which the cash flows of a portfolio of loans are pooled and passed on to different classes of owners in various tranches. Our CLO investments are derived from portfolios of corporate debt securities which are generally risk rated from BB to B.

111


We hold many of our control investments in a two-tier structure consisting of a holding company and one or more related operating companies for tax purposes. These holding companies serve various business purposes including concentration of management teams, optimization of third-party borrowing costs, improvement of supplier, customer, and insurance terms, and enhancement of co-investments by the management teams. In these cases, our investment, which is generally equity in the holding company, the holding company’s equity investment in the operating company and any debt from us directly to the operating company structure represents our total exposure for the investment. As of March 31, 2020, as shown in our Consolidated Schedule of Investments, the cost basis and fair value of our investments in controlled companies was $2,290,680 and $2,208,472, respectively. This structure gives rise to several of the risks described in our public documents and highlighted elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. We consolidate all wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us for the purpose of holding our controlled investments in operating companies. There is no significant effect of consolidating these holding companies as they hold minimal assets other than their investments in the controlled operating companies. Investment company accounting prohibits the consolidation of any operating companies.
Third Quarter Highlights
Investment Transactions
We seek to be a long-term investor with our portfolio companies. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we acquired $339,790 of new investments, completed follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies totaling approximately $42,325, funded $6,296 of revolver advances, and recorded paid in kind (“PIK”) interest of $13,959, resulting in gross investment originations of $402,370. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we received full repayments totaling $66,435, received $1,500 of revolver paydowns, and received several partial prepayments, scheduled principal amortization payments, and return of capital distributions, resulting in net repayments of $266,510.

Debt Issuances and Redemptions
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repaid $1,072 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® at par in accordance with the Survivor’s Option, as defined in the InterNotes® Offering prospectus. In order to replace short maturity debt with longer-term debt, we redeemed prior to maturity $15,634 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® at par with a weighted average interest rate of 4.85%. As a result of these transactions, we recorded a loss in the amount of the unamortized debt issuance costs. The net loss on the extinguishment of Prospect Capital InterNotes® in the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $156.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we issued $66,856 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® with a stated and weighted average interest rate of 4.17%, to extend our borrowing base. The newly issued notes mature between January 15, 2025 and March 15, 2030 and generated net proceeds of $65,786.
On December 23, 2019, we commenced two separate tender offers to purchase for cash (i) up to $10,000 aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes that mature on April 15, 2020 (“2020 Notes December Tender Offer”), of which $175,037 aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes were then outstanding, and (ii) up to $25,000 aggregate principal amount of the convertible notes that mature on July 15, 2022 (“2022 Notes December Tender Offer”, and together with the 2020 Notes December Tender Offer, the “December Tender Offers”), of which $292,127 aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes were then outstanding. On January 22, 2020, we announced the expiration and results of the December Tender Offers. On January 27, 2020, $2,215 aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes, representing 1.3% of the previously outstanding 2020 Notes, and $1,302 aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes, representing 0.5% of the previously outstanding 2022 Notes, were validly tendered and accepted. The December Tender Offers resulted in our recognizing a loss of $14 and $51 for the 2020 Notes and 2022 Notes, respectively. The December Tender Offers each expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on January 22, 2020 (one minute after 11:59 p.m. New York City time, on January 21, 2020).
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased an additional $45,111 aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes at a weighted average price of 100.5 including commissions. As a result of this transaction, we recorded a loss of $220, in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the 2020 Notes, net of the proportionate amount of unamortized debt issuance costs.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we repurchased an additional $32,585 aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes at a weighted average price of 89.1 including commissions. As a result of this transaction, we recorded a gain of $3,045, in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the 2022 Notes, net of the proportionate amount of unamortized debt issuance costs.



112


On March 20, 2020, we commenced a tender offer to purchase for cash any and all of the $234,443 aggregate principal amount of the unsecured notes that mature on June 15, 2024 (“2024 Notes March Tender Offer”). On March 31, 2020, $655 aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes, representing 0.3% of the previously outstanding 2024 Notes, were validly tendered and accepted. The 2024 Notes March Tender Offer, resulted in our recognizing a gain of $203 during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Equity Issuances
On January 23, 2020, February 20, 2020, and March 19, 2020 we issued 74,108, 72,405, and 87,169 shares of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan, respectively.
Leverage
The amount of leverage we intend to use in any period depends on a number of factors, including cash on-hand available for investing, the cost of financing and general economic and market conditions. Prior to the Small Business Credit Availability Act being signed into law, a BDC generally was not permitted to incur indebtedness unless immediately after such borrowing it has an asset coverage for total borrowings of at least 200%. The Small Business Credit Availability Act, signed into law on March 23, 2018, contains a provision that grants a BDC the option, subject to certain conditions and disclosure obligations, to reduce the asset coverage requirement to 150% (a 2:1 debt to equity ratio, as opposed to a 1:1 debt to equity ratio). Our Board of Directors and stockholders have approved the decreased asset coverage ratio, which became effective on May 6, 2020.
On April 8, 2020, in connection with the outbreak of the Wuhan Virus pandemic, the SEC issued an Order Under Sections 6(c), 17(d), 38(a) and 57(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 Thereunder Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Investment Company Act and Certain Rules Thereunder, the 1940 Act Release No. 33837 (Apr. 8, 2020) (the “April 2020 Order”), which provides exemptions from certain requirements of the 1940 Act. Section II of the April 2020 Order (i) affords BDCs greater flexibility in calculating asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, (ii) requires a BDC’s board of directors, including a required majority of such board, as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act, to determine that the issuance or sale of covered senior securities is permitted by this April 2020 Order and is in the best interests of the BDC and its stockholders, (iii) requires prior disclosure on Form 8-K of an election to rely on Section II of the April 2020 Order (an “Election”), and (iv) includes certain limitations on new investments, among other requirements detailed in the April 2020 Order.
The Company’s Board of Directors, including a required majority of the Board (as defined in section 57(o) of the 1940 Act), approved the Election on April 13, 2020. In approving the Election the Board of Directors considered, among other things, the conditions to rely on and be subject to the April 2020 Order and determined that the issuance and sale of the Company’s senior securities is permitted by the April 2020 Order and is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Election permits us to use a modified formula to calculate our asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements and, in doing so, permits us to rely in part on the fair value of our assets as of December 31, 2019. The overall effect of the Election is to make it easier for us to meet our applicable asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, as well as for purposes of covenants referencing the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements. The Election is effective through December 31, 2020 unless the Company withdraws it earlier.
Investment Holdings
At March 31, 2020, we have $5,144,542, or 175.4%, of our net assets invested in 121 long-term portfolio investments and CLOs.
Our annualized current yield was 12.4% and 13.1% as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, across all performing interest bearing investments, excluding equity investments and non-accrual loans. Our annualized current yield was 10.1% and 10.6% as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, across all investments. Monetization of equity positions that we hold and loans on non-accrual status are not included in this yield calculation. In many of our portfolio companies we hold equity positions, ranging from minority interests to majority stakes, which we expect over time to contribute to our investment returns. Some of these equity positions include features such as contractual minimum internal rates of returns, preferred distributions, flip structures and other features expected to generate additional investment returns, as well as contractual protections and preferences over junior equity, in addition to the yield and security offered by our cash flow and collateral debt protections.

We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Under the 1940 Act, “Affiliate Investments” are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. As of March 31, 2020, we own controlling interests in the following portfolio companies: CP Energy Services Inc. (“CP Energy”); Credit Central Loan Company, LLC (“Credit Central”); Echelon Transportation, LLC (“Echelon”); First Tower Finance Company LLC (“First Tower Finance”); Freedom Marine Solutions, LLC (“Freedom Marine”); InterDent, Inc. (“InterDent”); Kickapoo Ranch Pet Resort (“Kickapoo”); MITY, Inc. (“MITY”); NPRC; Nationwide Loan Company LLC (“Nationwide”); NMMB, Inc. (“NMMB”); Pacific World Corporation (“Pacific World”); R-V Industries, Inc. (“R-V”); Universal Turbine Parts, LLC (“UTP”); USES Corp. (“USES”); and Valley Electric Company, Inc. (“Valley Electric”). In June 2019, CP Energy purchased a controlling interest in the common equity of Spartan Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Spartan Holdings”), which owns 100% of Spartan Energy Services, LLC (“Spartan”), a portfolio company of Prospect with $34,399 in senior secured term loans (the “Spartan Term Loans”) due to us as of June 30, 2019. As a result of CP Energy’s purchase, and given Prospect’s controlling interest in CP Energy, we report our investments in Spartan as control investments beginning June 30, 2019. Spartan remains the direct borrow and guarantor to Prospect for the Spartan Term Loans.
As of March 31, 2020, we also own affiliated interests in Edmentum Ultimate Holdings, LLC (“Edmentum”), Nixon, Inc. (“Nixon”), Targus Cayman HoldCo Limited (“Targus”), and United Sporting Companies, Inc. (“USC”).

Investment Valuation
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, management and the independent valuation firm look at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. In determining the range of values for debt instruments where market quotations are not available, except CLOs and debt investments in controlling portfolio companies, management and the independent valuation firm estimated corporate and security credit ratings and identified corresponding yields to maturity for each loan from relevant market data. A discounted cash flow technique was then applied using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, to determine a range of values. In determining the range of values for debt investments of controlled companies and equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying a market approach such as using earnings before income interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples, net income and/or book value multiples for similar guideline public companies and/or similar recent investment transactions and/or an income approach, such as the discounted cash flow technique. The enterprise value technique may also be used to value debt investments which are credit impaired. For stressed debt and equity investments, an asset recovery analysis was used.
In determining the range of values for our investments in CLOs, the independent valuation firm uses a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The valuations were accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view as well as to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations, which are simulations used to model the probability of different outcomes, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows for the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market and certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the corresponding multi-path cash flow model.
With respect to our online consumer and SME lending initiative, we invest primarily in marketplace loans through marketplace lending platforms.  We do not conduct loan origination activities ourselves. Therefore, our ability to purchase consumer and SME loans, and our ability to grow our portfolio of consumer and SME loans, are directly influenced by the business performance and competitiveness of the marketplace loan origination business of the marketplace lending platforms from which we purchase consumer and SME loans. In addition, our ability to analyze the risk-return profile of consumer and SME loans is significantly dependent on the marketplace platforms’ ability to effectively evaluate a borrower's credit profile and likelihood of default. If we are unable to effectively evaluate borrowers’ credit profiles or the credit decisioning and scoring models implemented by each platform, we may incur unanticipated losses which could adversely impact our operating results.
The Board of Directors looked at several factors in determining where within the range to value the asset including: recent operating and financial trends for the asset, independent ratings obtained from third parties, comparable multiples for recent sales of companies within the industry and discounted cash flow models for our investments in CLOs. The composite of all these various valuation techniques, applied to each investment, was a total valuation of $5,144,542.
Our portfolio companies are generally lower middle market companies, outside of the financial sector, with less than $100,000 of annual EBITDA. We believe our investment portfolio has experienced less volatility than others because we believe there are more buy and hold investors who own these less liquid investments.
Impact of the novel coronavirus (the "Wuhan Virus") pandemic
During the first quarter of 2020, our operating results were negatively impacted by the uncertainty surrounding the Wuhan Virus pandemic, which has caused severe disruptions in the global economy and negatively impacted the fair value and performance of our investment portfolio. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the resulting changes in net unrealized depreciation on investments were largely due to widening credit spreads as market participants expected a higher yield on similar investments given the significant market volatility generated by the Wuhan Virus pandemic. To a lesser extent, the changes in net unrealized depreciation on investments for the quarter for certain of our portfolio companies also reflected other factors such as specific industry concerns, uncertainty about the duration of business shutdowns and near-term liquidity needs. For additional information concerning the Wuhan Virus pandemic and its potential impact on our business and our operating results, see Part II - Other information, Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risk Factors - The Wuhan Virus pandemic has caused severe disruptions in the global economy, which has had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our portfolio companies and our business and operations.”

Control Company Investments
Control investments offer increased risk and reward over straight debt investments. Operating results and changes in market multiples can result in dramatic changes in values from quarter to quarter. Significant downturns in operations can further result in our looking to recoveries on sales of assets rather than the enterprise value of the investment. Equity positions in our portfolio are susceptible to potentially significant changes in value, both increases as well as decreases, due to changes in operating results and market multiples. Several of our controlled companies discussed below experienced such changes and we recorded corresponding fluctuations in valuations during the nine months ended March 31, 2020.
CP Energy Services Inc.
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of CP Holdings, a Consolidated Holding Company. CP Holdings owns 99.8% of the equity of CP Energy, and the remaining equity is owned by CP Energy management. CP Energy provides oilfield flowback services and fluid hauling and disposal services through its subsidiaries.
On April 6, 2018, Arctic Oilfield Equipment USA, Inc. (“Arctic Equipment”), a previously controlled portfolio company, merged with and into CP Energy, with CP Energy continuing as the surviving corporation. In June 2019, CP Energy purchased a controlling interest in the common equity of Spartan Holdings, which owns 100% of Spartan, a portfolio company of Prospect with $34,399 in senior secured term loans due to us as of June 30, 2019. As a result of CP Energy’s purchase, and given Prospect’s controlling interest in CP Energy, our Spartan Term Loans are presented as control investments under CP Energy beginning June 30, 2019. Spartan remains the direct borrower and guarantor to Prospect for the Spartan Term Loans. On December 30, 2019, Wolf Energy LLC, Wolf Energy Services LLC, and AEH LLC (collectively referred to as “Wolf Energy”), a previously controlled portfolio company, merged with and into CP Energy, with CP Energy continuing as the surviving corporation. See Note 14 in our Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
The fair value of our investment in CP Energy decreased to $72,769 as of March 31, 2020, which is a discount of $148,836 from its amortized cost, compared to a fair value of $138,931 as of June 30, 2019, representing a discount of $74,944 to its amortized cost. The increase in discount to amortized cost resulted from a decline in financial performance and corresponding valuation multiples as a result of headwinds in the oil and gas industry, primarily associated with the demand imbalance stemming from the novel coronavirus.
Credit Central Loan Company, LLC
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of Credit Central Delaware, a consolidated holding company. Credit Central Delaware owns 98.63% of Credit Central, with entities owned by Credit Central management owning the remaining 1.37% of the equity. Credit Central is a branch-based provider of installment loans.

The fair value of our investment in Credit Central increased to $71,587 as of March 31, 2020, which is a discount of $4,449 from its amortized cost, compared to a fair value of $71,417 as of June 30, 2019, representing a premium of $5,107 to its amortized cost basis. The decrease to the premium was driven an increase to the cost basis from PIK income recognized.

Echelon Transportation, LLC

Prospect owns 100% of the equity of Echelon, a consolidated holding company. Echelon owns 60.7% of the equity of AerLift. Echelon is an aircraft leasing company.

The fair value of our investment in Echelon decreased to $84,840 as of March 31, 2020, which is a discount of $869 from its amortized cost, compared to a fair value of $89,701 as of June 30, 2019, representing a premium of $12,122 to its amortized cost basis. The decrease to the premium was driven by an increase in the cost of capital metrics for the comparable companies.

First Tower Finance Company LLC
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of First Tower Delaware, a consolidated holding company. First Tower Delaware owns 80.1% of First Tower Finance. First Tower Finance owns 100% of First Tower, LLC (“First Tower”), a multiline specialty finance company.
The fair value of our investment in First Tower decreased to $473,185 as of March 31, 2020, representing a premium of $117,689 to its amortized cost basis compared to a fair value of $494,036 as of June 30, 2019, representing a premium of $135,479 to its amortized cost. The decrease to the premium was driven primarily by a decline in comparable company trading multiples.

InterDent, Inc.
Following assumption of control, Prospect exercised its rights and remedies under its loan documents to exercise the shareholder voting rights in respect of the stock of InterDent, Inc. (“InterDent”) and to appoint a new Board of Directors of InterDent, all the members of which are our Investment Adviser’s professionals. As a result, as of June 30, 2018, Prospect’s investment in InterDent is classified as a control investment.
The fair value of our investment in InterDent decreased to $202,352 as of March 31, 2020, representing a discount of $59,436 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $224,876 as of June 30, 2019, representing a discount of $23,997 to its amortized cost basis. The increase in discount to amortized cost was driven by delayed realization of operational improvements, additional need for reinvestment into the business, and cost-inflation.
MITY, Inc.
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of MITY Delaware, a consolidated holding company. MITY Delaware previously held 95.58% of the equity of MITY. Effective March 13, 2019, MITY Delaware’s equity ownership of MITY increased to 100%. MITY owns 100% of each of MITY-Lite, Inc. (“Mity-Lite”); Broda Enterprises USA, Inc.; and Broda Enterprises ULC (“Broda Canada”).
The fair value of our investment in Mity increased to $55,173 as of March 31, 2020, a discount of $16,601 to its amortized cost basis compared to a fair value of $46,902 as of June 30, 2019, a discount of $22,698 to its amortized cost. The decrease to the discount was driven by stronger financial performance.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, the valuation methodology for National Property REIT Corporation (“NPRC”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries relating to the real estate portfolio changed to remove the Discounted Cash Flow Method. Management utilizes the Enterprise Value Waterfall (NAV Analysis) to value its investment in NPRC and its wholly owned subsidiaries relating to the real estate portfolio as this method is aligned with current industry practice and with Management’s experience in buying and selling income producing real estate assets.

The fair value of our investment in NPRC decreased to $900,012 as of March 31, 2020, representing a premium of $267,693 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $1,004,465 as of June 30, 2019, representing a premium of $235,076. The increase in premium to amortized cost is primarily due to an increase in property values and change in methodology discussed above.
NMMB, Inc.
Prospect owns 100% of the equity of NMMB Holdings, a consolidated holding company. NMMB Holdings owns 92.50% and 94.10% of the fully-diluted equity of NMMB as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, with NMMB management owning the remaining equity. NMMB owns 100% of Refuel Agency, Inc. (“Refuel Agency”). Refuel Agency owns 100% of Armed Forces Communications, Inc. NMMB is an advertising media buying business.
The fair value of our investment in NMMB increased to $36,560 as of March 31, 2020, representing a premium of $18,629 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $24,183 as of June 30, 2019, representing a premium of $8,200 to its amortized cost basis. The increase to the premium was driven by improved financial performance, including higher gross profit and operating margins.

Pacific World Corporation
On May 29, 2018, Prospect exercised its rights and remedies under its loan documents to exercise the shareholder voting rights in respect of the stock of Pacific World Corporation (“Pacific World”) and to appoint a new Board of Directors of Pacific World. As a result, as of June 30, 2018, Prospect’s investment in Pacific World is classified as a control investment. Pacific World supplies nail and beauty care products to food, drug, mass, and value retail channels worldwide.
The fair value of our investment in Pacific World decreased to $53,224 as of March 31, 2020, representing a discount of $192,278 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $112,427 as of June 30, 2019, representing a discount of $125,542 to its amortized cost basis. The increase in discount to amortized cost resulted from a deterioration in financial performance.
Valley Electric Company, Inc.

Prospect owns 100% of the common stock of Valley Holdings I, a Consolidated Holding Company. Valley Holdings I owns 100% of Valley Holdings II, a Consolidated Holding Company. Valley Holdings II owns 94.99% of Valley Electric, with Valley Electric management owning the remaining 5.01% of the equity. Valley Electric owns 100% of the equity of VE Company, Inc., which

122


owns 100% of the equity of Valley Electric Co. of Mt. Vernon, Inc. (“Valley”), a leading provider of specialty electrical services in the state of Washington and among the top electrical contractors in the United States.

The fair value of our investment in Valley Electric decreased to $121,990 as of March 31, 2020, a premium of $53,116 from its amortized cost, compared to a fair value of $143,685 as of June 30, 2019, representing a $73,750 premium to its amortized cost. While Valley Electric’s financial performance remains strong, the decrease in premium to amortized cost was driven by adverse market conditions.
Our controlled investments, other than those discussed above, are valued at $116,866 below cost and did not experience significant changes in operating performance or value during the nine months ended March 31, 2020. This discount is primarily driven by our controlled investments in Freedom Marine, Universal Turbine Parts, and USES, which are valued at a discount to amortized cost of $28,474, $37,386, and $50,037, respectively. Overall, combined with those portfolio companies discussed above, our controlled investments at March 31, 2020 are valued at $82,208 below their amortized cost.
Affiliate and Non-Control Company Investments

We hold four affiliate investments at March 31, 2020, which are valued at $80,187 below their amortized cost. This discount is primarily driven by our affiliate investment in USC, which is valued at a discount to amortized cost of $100,762. In June, 2019, USC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and began liquidating its remaining assets. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, USC used a portion of the proceeds from the ongoing liquidation to partially repay $20,594 of our Second Lien Term Loan. Excluding USC, our affiliate investments are valued at $20,575 above their amortized cost as of March 31, 2020.

With the non-control/non-affiliate investments, generally, there is less volatility related to our total investments because our equity positions tend to be smaller than with our control/affiliate investments, and debt investments are generally not as susceptible to large swings in value as equity investments. For debt investments, the fair value is generally limited on the high side to each loan’s par value, plus any prepayment premium that could be imposed. However, as of March 31, 2020, two of our non-control/ non-affiliate investments, Engine Group, Inc. (“Engine”) and PGX Holdings, Inc. (“PGX”) are valued at discounts to amortized cost of $17,221 and $42,852, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, our CLO investment portfolio is valued at a $385,680 discount to amortized cost. Excluding Engine, PGX, and the CLO investment portfolio, non-control/non-affiliate investments at March 31, 2020 are valued at $53,948 below their amortized cost largely due to widening credit spreads as market participants expected a higher yield on similar investments given the significant market volatility generated by the Wuhan Virus pandemic. For more information on change in unrealized, see “Results of Operations - Change in Unrealized Gains/Losses.”

Capitalization
Our investment activities are capital intensive and the availability and cost of capital is a critical component of our business. We capitalize our business with a combination of debt and equity. Our debt as of March 31, 2020 consists of: a Revolving Credit Facility availing us of the ability to borrow debt, subject to borrowing base determinations; Convertible Notes, which we issued in April 2014, April 2017 (with a follow-on issuance in May 2018), and March 2019; Public Notes which we issued in March 2013, December 2015 (and from time to time through our 2024 Notes Follow-on Program), June 2018 (and from time to time through our 2028 Notes Follow-on Program), October 2018, and December 2018 (and from time to time through our 2029 Notes Follow-on Program); and Prospect Capital InterNotes® which we issue from time to time. Our equity capital is comprised entirely of common equity.

As permitted by ASC 825-10-25, we have not elected to value our Revolving Credit Facility, Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® at fair value. The fair value of these debt obligations are categorized as Level 2 under ASC 820 as of March 31, 2020.
(2)
The maximum draw amount of the Revolving Credit facility as of March 31, 2020 is $1,077,500.
(3)
Net Carrying Value excludes deferred financing costs associated with the Revolving Credit Facility. See Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates for accounting policy details.
(4)
We use available market quotes to estimate the fair value of the Convertible Notes and Public Notes.
(5)
The fair value of Prospect Capital InterNotes® is estimated by discounting remaining payments using current Treasury rates plus spread based on observable market inputs.
(6)
Represents the rate on drawn down and outstanding balances. Deferred debt issuance costs are amortized on a straight-line method over the stated life of the obligation.
(7)
The effective interest rate is equal to the effect of the stated interest, the accretion of original issue discount and amortization of debt issuance costs. For the 2024 Notes, the 2028 Notes, and the 2029 Notes, the rate presented is a combined effective interest rate of their respective original Note issuances and Note Follow-on Programs.
(8)
For the Prospect Capital InterNotes®, the rate presented is the weighted average effective interest rate. Interest expense and deferred debt issuance costs, which are amortized on a straight-line method over the stated life of the obligation which approximates level yield, are weighted against the average year-to-date principal balance.

We may from time to time seek to cancel or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved may be material. In addition, we may from time to time enter into additional debt facilities, increase the size of existing facilities or issue additional debt securities, including secured debt, unsecured debt and/or debt securities convertible into common stock. Any such purchases or exchanges of outstanding debt would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors.
 
Historically, we have funded a portion of our cash needs through borrowings from banks, issuances of senior securities, including secured, unsecured and convertible debt securities, or issuances of common equity. For flexibility, we maintain a universal shelf registration statement that allows for the public offering and sale of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, and warrants and units to purchase such securities up to an indeterminate amount. We may from time to time issue securities pursuant to the shelf registration statement or otherwise pursuant to private offerings. The issuance of debt or equity securities will depend on future market conditions, funding needs and other factors and there can be no assurance that any such issuance will occur or be successful.

Each of our Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our “Unsecured Notes”) are our general, unsecured obligations and rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to any of our subordinated indebtedness that may be issued in the future. The Unsecured Notes are effectively subordinated to our existing secured indebtedness, such as our credit facility, and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to any existing and future liabilities and other indebtedness of any of our subsidiaries.
Revolving Credit Facility
On August 29, 2014, we renegotiated our previous credit facility and closed an expanded five and a half year revolving credit facility (the “2014 Facility”). The lenders had extended commitments of $885,000 under the 2014 Facility as of June 30, 2018. The 2014 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to $1,500,000 in the aggregate. Interest on borrowings under the 2014 Facility was one-month LIBOR plus 225 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charged a fee on the unused portion of the 2014 Facility equal to either 50 basis points if at least 35% of the credit facility was drawn or 100 basis points otherwise.
On August 1, 2018, we renegotiated the 2014 Facility and closed an expanded five and a half year revolving credit (the “2018 Facility”). The lenders had extended commitments of $1,132,500 as of June 30, 2019. The 2018 Facility included an accordion feature which allowed commitments to be increased up to $1,500,000 in the aggregate.

125



On September 9, 2019, we amended the 2018 Facility and closed an expanded revolving credit facility (the “2019 Facility” and collectively with the 2014 Facility and the 2018 Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The lenders had extended commitments of $1,077,500 as of March 31, 2020. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an accordion feature which allows commitments to be increased up to $1,500,000 in the aggregate. The Revolving Credit Facility Facility matures on September 9, 2024. It includes a revolving period that extends through September 9, 2023, followed by an additional one-year amortization period, with distributions allowed to Prospect after the completion of the revolving period. During such one-year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one-year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements. The Revolving Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires the maintenance of a minimum liquidity requirement. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants.
Interest on borrowings under the 2019 Facility is one-month LIBOR plus 220 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the credit facility equal to either 50 basis points if more than 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 100 basis points if more than 35% and an amount less than or equal to 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 150 basis points if an amount less than or equal to 35% of the credit facility is drawn. The 2019 Facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the average stated interest rate (i.e., rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were as follows:

As of March 31, 2020, the investments, including cash and cash equivalents, used as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility had an aggregate fair value of $1,641,230, which represents 31.6% of our total investments, including cash and cash equivalents. These assets are held and owned by PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and, as such, these investments are not available to our general creditors. As additional eligible investments are transferred to PCF and pledged under the Revolving Credit Facility, PCF will generate additional availability up to the current commitment amount of $1,077,500. The release of any assets from PCF requires the approval of the facility agent.
In connection with the origination and amendments of the Revolving Credit Facility, we incurred $10,904 of new fees and $7,787 were carried over for continuing participants from the previous facilities, all of which are being amortized over the term of the facility in accordance with ASC 470-50. As of March 31, 2020, $9,688 remains to be amortized and is reflected as deferred financing costs on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, $398 of fees were expensed relating to credit providers in the 2018 Facility who did not commit to the 2019 Facility.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we recorded $5,867 and $6,209, respectively, of interest costs, unused fees and amortization of financing costs on the Revolving Credit Facility as interest expense.

Upon conversion, unless a holder converts after a record date for an interest payment but prior to the corresponding interest payment date, the holder will receive a separate cash payment with respect to the notes surrendered for conversion representing accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the conversion date. Any such payment will be made on the settlement date applicable to the relevant conversion on the Convertible Notes.

Net Asset Value
During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, our net asset value decreased by $372,900, or $1.03 per share. The decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in net realized and net change in unrealized losses of $386,258, or $1.05 per weighted average share. This decrease was partially offset by net investment income of $207,421, or $0.56 per weighted average share, exceeding dividends of $198,455, or $0.54 per weighted average share, resulting in a net increase of $0.02 per weighted average share for the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

While we seek to maximize gains and minimize losses, our investments in portfolio companies can expose our capital to risks greater than those we may anticipate. These companies typically do not issue securities rated investment grade, and have limited resources, limited operating history, and concentrated product lines or customers. These are generally private companies with limited operating information available and are likely to depend on a small core of management talents. Changes in any of these factors can have a significant impact on the value of the portfolio company.

Investment Income
We generate revenue in the form of interest income on the debt securities that we own, dividend income on any common or preferred stock that we own, and fees generated from the structuring of new deals. Our investments, if in the form of debt securities, will typically have a term of one to ten years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. To the extent achievable, we will seek to collateralize our investments by obtaining security interests in our portfolio companies’ assets. We also may acquire minority or majority equity interests in our portfolio companies, which may pay cash or in-kind dividends on a recurring or otherwise negotiated basis. In addition, we may generate revenue in other forms including prepayment penalties and possibly consulting fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments are recognized as earned.

Average interest income producing assets decreased from $5,607,632 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to $5,256,009 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in average income producing assets was a result of repayments. The average interest earned on performing interest bearing performing assets decreased from 11.07% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to 10.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The average interest earned on all interest bearing performing assets decreased from 10.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to 9.32% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease in both is primarily due to an increase in foregone interest due to non-accrual investments, decline in LIBOR and reduced returns from our structured credit investments.

Operating Expenses
Our primary operating expenses consist of investment advisory fees (base management and income incentive fees), borrowing costs, legal and professional fees, overhead-related expenses and other operating expenses. These expenses include our allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration under which Prospect Administration provides administrative services and facilities for us. Our investment advisory fees compensate the 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.

Total gross and net base management fee was $26,625 and 29,540 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The decrease in total gross base management fee is directly related to a decrease in average total assets.
Total gross base management fee was $82,631 and $92,794 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The decrease in total gross base management fee is directly related to a decrease in average total assets, offset by a $2,757 adjustment for fees earned in prior periods that were neither expensed nor paid to the Investment Adviser, for which we incurred $64 in accrued interest on those past due amounts. The interest on the amount owed to the Investment Adviser was calculated using the average of 1-month LIBOR rates from September 2010 through the date of payment. The Investment Adviser

135


has entered into a servicing agreement with certain institutions that purchased loans with us, where we serve as the agent and collect a servicing fee on behalf of the Investment Adviser. We receive payments from these institutions on behalf of the Investment Adviser, for providing such services under the servicing agreement. We are given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the base management fee payable by us to the Investment Adviser. We received payments of $110 from these institutions for the nine months ended March 31, 2019. No such payments were received for the nine months ended March 31, 2020. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of base management fee payable by us to the Investment Adviser resulting in net base management fee of $82,631 and $92,684 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we incurred $17,119 and $19,315 of income incentive fees, respectively. This decrease was driven by a corresponding decrease in pre-incentive fee net investment income from $96,577 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to $85,595 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. No capital gains incentive fee has yet been incurred pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we incurred $51,855 and $60,808 of income incentive fees, respectively. This decrease was driven by a corresponding decrease in pre-incentive fee net investment income from $304,040 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 to $259,276 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020. No capital gains incentive fee has yet been incurred pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we incurred $37,646 and $38,946 respectively, of interest and credit facility expenses related to our Revolving Credit Facility, Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our “Notes”). During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, we incurred $113,603 and $117,510, respectively, of interest expenses related to our Notes. These expenses are related directly to the leveraging capacity and the levels of indebtedness actually undertaken in those periods.
The table below describes the various expenses of our Notes and the related indicators of leveraging capacity and indebtedness during these years:

Interest expense is relatively stable on a dollars basis for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. The weighted average stated interest rate on borrowings (excluding amortization, accretion and undrawn facility fees) increased from 5.37% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 to 5.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase is primarily due to issuances of Public Notes and 2025 Notes at higher rates, partially offset by repurchases of our Convertible Notes and increased utilization of our Revolving Credit Facility, which bears a lower rate than our remaining debt.
Interest expense decreased from $117,510 for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 to $113,603 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020. The weighted average stated interest rate on borrowings (excluding amortization, accretion and undrawn facility fees) increased from 5.35% for the nine months ended March 31, 2019 to 5.55% for the nine months ended March 31, 2020. This increase is primarily due to issuances of Public Notes and the 2025 Notes during the second half of the prior year at higher rates, partially offset by repurchases of our Convertible Notes and increased utilization of our Revolving Credit Facility, which bears a lower rate than our remaining debt.
The allocation of net overhead expense from Prospect Administration was $4,096 and $2,084 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.
The allocation of net overhead expense from Prospect Administration was $13,601 and $11,091 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. Prospect Administration received estimated payments of $1,225 and $607 directly from our portfolio companies, and certain funds managed by the Investment Adviser for legal services during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the administrative services cost payable by us to Prospect Administration. Had Prospect Administration not received these payments, Prospect Administration’s charges for its administrative services would have increased by this amount.
Total operating expenses, excluding investment advisory fees, interest and credit facility expenses, and allocation of overhead from Prospect Administration (“Other Operating Expenses”), net of any expense reimbursements, were $539 and $3,962 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The $3,423 decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in legal fees due to a $2,325 reimbursement from litigation proceeds, of previously expensed legal fees, in addition to decreases in audit, compliance and tax related fees.
Total operating expenses, excluding investment advisory fees, interest and credit facility expenses, and allocation of overhead from Prospect Administration (“Other Operating Expenses”), net of any expense reimbursements, were $9,190 and $14,089 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The $4,899 decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in legal fees due to a reimbursement from litigation proceeds of previously expensed legal fees in addition to a decrease audit, compliance and tax related fees.
Net Investment Income
Net investment income represents the difference between investment income and operating expenses. Net investment income was $68,476 and $77,262 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The decrease of $8,786 was primarily due to a decrease in investment income of $16,608 partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses of $7,822. Refer to above Investment Income and Operating Expenses discussions for detail.
Net investment income was $207,421 and $243,232 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The decrease of $35,811 was primarily due to a decrease in investment income of $61,113 partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses of $25,302. Refer to above Investment Income and Operating Expenses discussions for detail.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, our operating activities provided $343,368 and provided $171,071 of cash, respectively. There were no investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019. Financing activities used $403,820 and $134,263 of cash during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively, which included dividend payments of $194,024 and $180,685, respectively. Our primary uses of funds have been to continue to

140


invest in portfolio companies, through both debt and equity investments, repay outstanding borrowings and to make cash distributions to holders of our common stock.

Our primary sources of funds have historically been issuances of debt and equity. More recently, we have and may continue to fund a portion of our cash needs through repayments and opportunistic sales of our existing investment portfolio. We may also securitize a portion of our investments in unsecured or senior secured loans or other assets. Our objective is to put in place such borrowings in order to enable us to expand our portfolio. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, we borrowed $990,000 and we made repayments totaling $991,400 under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2020, our outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility was $165,600. As of March 31, 2020, we had, net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs, $577,391 outstanding on the Convertible Notes, $781,513 outstanding on the Public Notes and $659,517 outstanding on the Prospect Capital InterNotes® (See “Capitalization” above).
Undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans to our portfolio companies incur commitment and unused fees ranging from 0.00% to 5.00%. As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, we had $38,135 and $23,375, respectively, of undrawn revolver and delayed draw term loan commitments to our portfolio companies. The fair value of our undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans was zero as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019.
We have guaranteed $2,487 in standby letters of credit issued through a financial intermediary and $2,624 of equipment lease obligations on behalf of InterDent, Inc. (“InterDent”) as of March 31, 2020. Under these arrangements, we would be required to make payments to the financial intermediary or equipment lease provider, respectively, if InterDent was to default on their related payment obligations. As of March 31, 2020, we have not recorded a liability on the statement of assets and liabilities for these guarantees as the likelihood of default on the standby letters of credit or equipment lease is deemed to be remote.
On February 13, 2020, we filed a registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-236415) that was effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act as permitted under the Small Business Credit Availability Act. The registration statement permits us to issue, through one or more transactions, an indeterminate amount of securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, subscription rights to purchase our securities, warrants representing rights to purchase our securities or separately tradeable units combining two or more of our securities.

Our shareholders’ equity accounts as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019 reflect cumulative shares issued, net of shares repurchased, as of those respective dates. Our common stock has been issued through public offerings, a registered direct offering, the exercise of over-allotment options on the part of the underwriters, our dividend reinvestment plan and in connection with the acquisition of certain controlled portfolio companies. When our common stock is issued, the related offering expenses have been charged against paid-in capital in excess of par. All underwriting fees and offering expenses were borne by us.
As part of our Repurchase Program, we delivered a notice with our annual proxy mailing on September 19, 2019. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 or March 31, 2019.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2020, we did not have any off-balance sheet liabilities or other contractual obligations that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, other than those which originate from 1) the investment advisory and management agreement and the administration agreement and 2) the portfolio companies.
Recent Developments
During the period from April 1, 2020 through May 7, 2020 we issued $2,767 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® for net proceeds of $2,730.
On April 2, 2020, we made a new Second Lien Term Loan investment of $10,000 in AmeriLife Holdings, LLC, an independent marketing organization specializing in the marketing and distribution of senior life insurance, health insurance, and fixed annuity policies, in support of an acquisition of the business.
On April 13, 2020, the Company elected to rely upon, and be subject to (the “Election”), section II of the Order Under Sections 6(c), 17(d), 38(a) and 57(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 Thereunder Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Investment Company Act and Certain Rules Thereunder, 1940 Act Release No. 33837 (Apr. 8, 2020) (the “April 2020 Order”). The Election affords the Company greater flexibility in calculating its asset coverage ratios for purposes of sections 18(a)(1)(A) and 18(a)(2)(A) of the 1940 Act (as modified by sections 61(a)(1) and 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act) (the “Asset Coverage Requirements”). The Election does not change the Asset Coverage Requirements; however, it does change the manner in which the Company is permitted to calculate these ratios under section 18(b) of the 1940 Act. Under the April 2020 Order, the

141


Company can use a modified formula to calculate its asset coverage ratios for purposes of the Asset Coverage Requirements and, in doing so, can rely in part on the fair value of its assets as of December 31, 2019. The overall effect of the Election is to make it easier for the Company to meet its applicable asset coverage ratios for purposes of the Asset Coverage Requirements, as well as for purposes of covenants referencing the Asset Coverage Requirements. The Election is effective through December 31, 2020 unless the Company withdraws it earlier.
On April 15, 2020, we repaid the outstanding principal amount of $127,711 of the 2020 Senior Convertible Notes, plus interest.
On April 17, 2020, the Board of Directors approved amendments to our dividend reinvestment plan, effective May 21, 2020, that principally provide for the number of newly-issued shares of our common stock used to implement reinvestment of dividends and distributions to be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such stockholder by 95% of the market price per share of our common stock at the close of regular trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the valuation date fixed by the Board of Directors for such distribution.
On March 30, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved, and on May 5, 2020, at a special meeting of the Company’s stockholders, the Company’s stockholders approved, the application to the Company of the reduced Asset Coverage Requirements in Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act. The application of the reduced Asset Coverage Requirement, which became effective on May 6, 2020, permits the Company, provided certain requirements are satisfied, to double the maximum amount of leverage that it is permitted to incur by reducing the Asset Coverage Requirement applicable to the Company from 200% to 150% (a 2:1 debt to equity ratio, as opposed to a 1:1 debt to equity ratio), as provided for in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, a successor provision to Section 61(a)(1) of the 1940 Act.
On April 20, 2020, the Company filed its notice of meeting and definitive proxy statement in connection with a special meeting of the Company's stockholders that is scheduled to be held on June 12, 2020 for the purpose of asking the Company's stockholders to vote on a proposal to authorize the Company, with approval of its Board of Directors, to sell shares of its common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below the Company’s then current net asset value per share in one or more offerings subject to certain conditions.
The Company has been closely monitoring the Wuhan Virus pandemic, its broader impact on the global economy and the more recent impacts on the U.S. economy. As of May 11, 2020, there is no indication of a reportable subsequent event impacting the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company continues to observe and respond to the evolving Wuhan Virus environment and its potential impact on areas across its business.
On May 11, 2020, we announced the declaration of monthly dividends in the following amounts and with the following dates:
$0.06 per share for May 2020 to holders of record on May 29, 2020 with a payment date of June 18, 2020.
$0.06 per share for June 2020 to holders of record on June 30, 2020 with a payment date of July 23, 2020.
$0.06 per share for July 2020 to holders of record on July 31, 2020 with a payment date of August 20, 2020.
$0.06 per share for August 2020 to holders of record on August 31, 2020 with a payment day of September 17, 2020.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q, ASC 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. Under the 1940 Act, ASC 946, and the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services to benefit us. Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prospect, PCF, PSBL, PYC, and the Consolidated Holding Companies. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial results of our non-substantially wholly owned holding companies and operating portfolio company investments are not consolidated in the financial statements. Any operating companies owned by the Consolidated Holding Companies are not consolidated.
Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made in the presentation of prior consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to conform to the presentation as of and for the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

142


Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income, expenses, and gains and losses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, creditworthiness of the issuers of our investment portfolio and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material.
Investment Classification
We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses or has the right to acquire within 60 days or less, a beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the voting securities of an investee company. Under the 1940 Act, “Affiliate Investments” are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through the possession outright or via the right to acquire within 60 days or less, beneficial ownership of 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.
As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, our qualifying assets as a percentage of total assets, stood at 74.91% and 73.85%, respectively.
Investment Transactions
Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. In accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interest in Securitized Financial Assets, investments in CLOs are periodically assessed for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). When the Company determines that a CLO has OTTI, the amortized cost basis of the CLO is written down to its fair value as of the date of the determination based on events and information evaluated and that write-down is recognized as a realized loss. Amounts for investments traded but not yet settled are reported in Due to Broker or Due from Broker, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Foreign Currency
Foreign currency amounts are translated into US Dollars (USD) on the following basis:
i.
fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period; and
ii.
purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such investment transactions, income or expenses.
We do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held or disposed of during the period. Such fluctuations are included within the net realized and net change in unrealized gains or losses from investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Investment Risks
Our investments are subject to a variety of risks. Those risks include the following:
Market Risk
Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by a change in the fair value of the financial instrument.
Credit Risk
Credit risk represents the risk that we would incur if the counterparties failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their agreements with us.

143


Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk represents the possibility that we may not be able to rapidly adjust the size of our investment positions in times of high volatility and financial stress at a reasonable price.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk represents a change in interest rates, which could result in an adverse change in the fair value of an interest-bearing financial instrument.
Prepayment Risk
Many of our debt investments allow for prepayment of principal without penalty. Downward changes in interest rates may cause prepayments to occur at a faster than expected rate, thereby effectively shortening the maturity of the security and making us less likely to fully earn all of the expected income of that security and reinvesting in a lower yielding instrument.
Structured Credit Related Risk

CLO investments may be riskier and less transparent to us than direct investments in underlying companies. CLOs typically will have no significant assets other than their underlying senior secured loans. Therefore, payments on CLO investments are and will be payable solely from the cash flows from such senior secured loans. 
Online Small-and-Medium-Sized Business Lending Risk
With respect to our online small-and-medium-sized business (“SME”) lending initiative, we invest primarily in marketplace loans through marketplace lending platforms (e.g. OnDeck). We do not conduct loan origination activities ourselves. Therefore, our ability to purchase SME loans, and our ability to grow our portfolio of SME loans, is directly influenced by the business performance and competitiveness of the marketplace loan origination business of the marketplace lending platforms from which we purchase SME loans. In addition, our ability to analyze the risk-return profile of SME loans is significantly dependent on the marketplace platforms’ ability to effectively evaluate a borrower's credit profile and likelihood of default. If we are unable to effectively evaluate borrowers' credit profiles or the credit decisioning and scoring models implemented by each platform, we may incur unanticipated losses which could adversely impact our operating results.
Foreign Currency
Investments denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin. 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.
Investment Valuation
To value our investments, we follow the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in conformity with GAAP, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted.
ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment.

144


Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations.
For most of our investments, market quotations are not available. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below.
1.
Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with independent valuation firms engaged by our Board of Directors.
2.
The independent valuation firms prepare independent valuations for each investment based on their own independent assessments and issue their report.
3.
The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses with the independent valuation firms the valuation reports, and then makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors of the value for each investment.
4.
The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firm and the Audit Committee.
Our non-CLO investments are valued utilizing a yield technique, enterprise value (“EV”) technique, net asset value technique, asset recovery technique, discounted cash flow technique, or a combination of techniques, as appropriate. The yield technique uses loan spreads for loans and other relevant information implied by market data involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. Under the EV technique, the EV of a portfolio company is first determined and allocated over the portfolio company’s securities in order of their preference relative to one another (i.e., “waterfall” allocation). To determine the EV, we typically use a market (multiples) valuation approach that considers relevant and applicable market trading data of guideline public companies, transaction metrics from precedent merger and acquisitions transactions, and/or a discounted cash flow technique. The net asset value technique, an income approach, is used to derive a value of an underlying investment (such as real estate property) by dividing a relevant earnings stream by an appropriate capitalization rate. For this purpose, we consider capitalization rates for similar properties as may be obtained from guideline public companies and/or relevant transactions. The asset recovery technique is intended to approximate the net recovery value of an investment based on, among other things, assumptions regarding liquidation proceeds based on a hypothetical liquidation of a portfolio company’s assets. The discounted cash flow technique converts future cash flows or earnings to a range of fair values from which a single estimate may be derived utilizing an appropriate discount rate. The fair value measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts.
In applying these methodologies, additional factors that we consider in valuing our investments may include, as we deem relevant: security covenants, call protection provisions, and information rights; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments; the principal markets in which the portfolio company does business; publicly available financial ratios of peer companies; the principal market; and enterprise values, among other factors.
Our investments in CLOs are classified as Level 3 fair value measured securities under ASC 820 and are valued using a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The CLO structures are analyzed to identify the risk exposures and to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations, which is a simulation used to model the probability of different outcomes, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows from the underlying assets and liabilities.  These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market as well as certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment.  In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the multi-path cash flows.  We are not responsible for and have no influence over the asset management of the portfolios underlying the CLO investments we hold, as those portfolios are managed by non-affiliated third-party CLO collateral managers. The main risk factors are default risk, prepayment risk, interest rate risk, downgrade risk, and credit spread risk.
Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, specifically ASC 825-10-25, permits an entity to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the “Fair Value Option”). We have not elected the Fair Value Option to report selected financial assets and financial liabilities. See Note 8 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for the disclosure of the fair value of our outstanding debt and the market observable inputs used in determining fair value.

145


Convertible Notes
We have recorded the Convertible Notes at their contractual amounts. We have determined that the embedded conversion options in the Convertible Unsecured Notes are not required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. See Note 5 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Revenue Recognition
Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method.
Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Loan origination fees, original issue discount, and market discounts are capitalized and accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans using the effective interest method or straight-line, as applicable, and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon a prepayment of a loan, prepayment premiums, original issue discount, or market discounts are recorded as interest income.
Loans are placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Unpaid accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are either applied to the cost basis or interest income, depending upon management’s judgment of the collectibility of the loan receivable. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, is likely to remain current and future principal and interest collections when due are probable. Interest received and applied against cost while a loan is on non-accrual, and PIK interest capitalized but not recognized while on non-accrual, is recognized prospectively on the effective yield basis through maturity of the loan when placed back on accrual status, to the extent deemed collectible by management. As of March 31, 2020, approximately 1.6% of our total assets at fair value are in non-accrual status.
Some of our loans and other investments may have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, we capitalize the accrued interest (reflecting such amounts in the basis as additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point that we believe PIK is not fully expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. We do not reverse previously capitalized PIK interest or dividends. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on non-accrual status are restored to accrual status if we believe that PIK is expected to be realized.
Interest income from investments in Subordinated Structured Notes (typically preferred shares, income notes or subordinated notes of CLO funds) and “equity” class of security of securitized trust is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing assumed cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. We monitor the expected cash inflows from our CLO and securitized trust equity investments, including the expected residual payments, and the effective yield is determined and updated periodically.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Other income generally includes amendment fees, commitment fees, administrative agent fees and structuring fees which are recorded when earned. Excess deal deposits, net profits interests and overriding royalty interests are included in other income. See Note 10 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.
Federal and State Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a RIC and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gain to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital.
If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains exceed the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the

146


extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income. As of March 31, 2020, we do not expect to have any excise tax due for the 2020 calendar year. Thus, we have not accrued any excise tax for this period.
If we fail to satisfy the annual distribution requirement or otherwise fail to qualify as a RIC in any taxable year, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would we be required to make distributions. Distributions would generally be taxable to our individual and other non-corporate taxable stockholders as ordinary dividend income eligible for the reduced maximum rate applicable to qualified dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, provided certain holding period and other requirements are met. Subject to certain limitations under the Code, corporate distributions would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. To qualify again to be taxed as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our shareholders our accumulated earnings and profits attributable to non-RIC years. In addition, if we failed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of five years.
We follow ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. As of March 31, 2020, we did not record any unrecognized tax benefits or liabilities. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Although we file both federal and state income tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. Our federal tax returns for the tax years ended August 31, 2016 and thereafter remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Dividends and Distributions
Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount, if any, to be paid as a monthly dividend or distribution is approved by our Board of Directors quarterly and is generally based upon our management’s estimate of our future taxable earnings. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually.
Financing Costs
We record origination expenses related to our Revolving Credit Facility and the Unsecured Notes as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method over the stated life of the obligation for our Revolving Credit Facility. The same methodology is used to approximate the effective yield method for our Prospect Capital InterNotes® and our 2024, 2028, and 2029 Notes Follow-on Programs. The effective interest method is used to amortize deferred financing costs for our remaining Unsecured Notes over the respective expected life or maturity. In the event that we modify or extinguish our debt before maturity, we follow the guidance in ASC 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments (“ASC 470-50”). For modifications to or exchanges of our Revolving Credit Facility, any unamortized deferred costs relating to lenders who are not part of the new lending group are expensed. For extinguishments of our Unsecured Notes, any unamortized deferred costs are deducted from the carrying amount of the debt in determining the gain or loss from the extinguishment.
Unamortized deferred financing costs are presented as a direct deduction to the respective Unsecured Notes (see Notes 5, 6, and 7 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).
We may record registration expenses related to shelf filings as prepaid expenses. These expenses consist principally of SEC registration fees, legal fees and accounting fees incurred. These prepaid expenses are charged to capital upon the receipt of proceeds from an equity offering or charged to expense if no offering is completed. As of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there are no prepaid expenses related to registration expenses and all amounts incurred have been expensed.
Guarantees and Indemnification Agreements
We follow ASC 460, Guarantees (“ASC 460”). ASC 460 elaborates on the disclosure requirements of a guarantor in its interim and annual consolidated financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, for those guarantees that are covered by ASC 460, the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing certain guarantees.

147


Per Share Information
Net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. In accordance with ASC 946, convertible securities are not considered in the calculation of net asset value per share.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which amends the financial instruments impairment guidance so that an entity is required to measure expected credit losses for financial assets based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. As such, an entity will use forward-looking information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 also amends the guidance in FASB ASC Subtopic No. 325-40, Investments-Other, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, related to the subsequent measurement of accretable yield recognized as interest income over the life of a beneficial interest in securitized financial assets under the effective yield method. ASU 2016-13 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The standard will modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. ASU No. 2018-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of this ASU. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
On December 22, 2017, the President signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), which significantly changed the Code, including, a reduction in the corporate income tax rate, a new limitation on the deductibility of interest expense, and significant changes to the taxation of income earned from foreign sources and foreign subsidiaries. The Tax Act also authorizes the IRS to issue regulations with respect to the new provisions. We cannot predict how the changes in the Tax Act, or regulations or other guidance issued under it, might affect us, our business or the business of our portfolio companies. However, our portfolio companies may or may not make certain elections under the Tax Act that could materially increase their taxable earnings and profits. Any such increase in the earnings and profits of a portfolio company may result in the characterization of certain distributions sourced from sale proceeds as dividend income, which may increase our distributable taxable income.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and equity price risk. Uncertainty with respect to the economic effects of the Wuhan Virus outbreak has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets, and the effects of this volatility could materially impact our market risks, including those listed below. For additional information concerning the Wuhan Virus pandemic and its potential impact on our business and our operating results, see Part II - Other information, Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risk Factors - The Wuhan Virus pandemic has caused severe disruptions in the global economy, which has had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our portfolio companies and our business and operations.”
Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates impacting some of the loans in our portfolio which have floating interest rates. Additionally, because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. See “Risk Factors - Risks Relating to Our Business - Changes in interest rates may affect our cost of capital and net investment income” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019.
Our debt investments may be based on floating rates or fixed rates. For our floating rate loans the rates are determined from the LIBOR, EURO Interbank Offer Rate, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate. The floating interest rate loans may be subject to a LIBOR floor. Our loans typically have durations of one to three months after which they reset to current market interest rates. As of March 31, 2020, 86.05% of the interest earning investments in our portfolio, at fair value, bore interest at floating rates.
We also have a revolving credit facility that is based on floating LIBOR rates. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is one-month LIBOR plus 220 basis points with no minimum LIBOR floor and an outstanding balance of $165,600 as of March 31, 2020. The Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® bear interest at fixed rates.

The following table shows the approximate annual impact on net investment income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate flows for floating rate instruments, excluding our investments in Subordinated Structured Notes) to our loan portfolio and outstanding debt as of March 31, 2020, assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:

Includes the impact of income incentive fees. See Note 13 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on income incentive fees.

As of March 31, 2020, one, two, three, and six month LIBOR were 0.99%, 1.26%, 1.45%, and 1.18% respectively. As of March 31, 2020, PRIME was 3.25%.

We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of higher interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. During the year ended March 31, 2020, we did not engage in hedging activities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of March 31, 2020, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the 1934 Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures. We are continually monitoring and assessing the Wuhan Virus situation to determine any potential impact on the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
(All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data.)
From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of such matters as may arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.
In 2018, Prospect and Pacific World filed lawsuits against certain third parties in connection with a loan Prospect made to Pacific World in 2014. During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, these and certain related matters were settled, and Prospect received $11,000 in settlement proceeds. The settlement was a voluntary compromise of the lawsuits, and none of the defendants admitted or acknowledged any wrongdoing.
We are not aware of any material legal proceedings as of March 31, 2020.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed below and the risk factors in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results. (All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data.)
Risks Relating to Our Business
The Wuhan Virus pandemic has caused severe disruptions in the global economy, which has had, and may continue to have, a negative impact on our portfolio companies and our business and operations.
As of the filing date of this Quarterly Report, there is an outbreak of a highly contagious form of a novel coronavirus (“Wuhan Virus”), which the World Health Organization has declared a global pandemic, the United States has declared a national emergency, and for the first time in its history, every state in the United States is under a federal disaster declaration. Many states, including those in which we and our portfolio companies operate, have issued orders requiring the closure of non-essential businesses and/or requiring residents to stay at home. The Wuhan Virus pandemic and preventative measures taken to contain or mitigate its spread have caused, and are continuing to cause, business shutdowns, cancellations of events and travel, significant reductions in demand for certain goods and services, reductions in business activity and financial transactions, supply chain interruptions and overall economic and financial market instability both globally and in the United States. Such effects will likely continue for the duration of the pandemic, which is uncertain, and for some period thereafter. Potential consequences of the current unprecedented measures taken in response to the spread of Wuhan Virus, and current market disruptions and volatility on our business include, but are not limited to:
sudden, unexpected and/or severe declines in the market price of our securities or net asset value;
inability of the Company to accurately or reliably value its portfolio;
inability of the Company to comply with certain asset coverage ratios that would prevent the Company from paying dividends to our common stockholders and that could result breaches of covenants or events of default under our credit agreement or debt indentures;
inability of the Company to pay any dividends and distributions or service its debt;
inability of the Company to maintain its status as a regulated investment company under the Code;
potentially severe, sudden and unexpected declines in the value of our investments;
increased risk of default or bankruptcy by the companies in which we invest;
increased risk of companies in which we invest being unable to weather an extended cessation of normal economic activity and thereby impairing their ability to continue functioning as a going concern;
reduced economic demand resulting from mass employee layoffs or furloughs in response to governmental action taken to slow the spread of Wuhan Virus, which could impact the continued viability of the companies in which we invest;
companies in which we invest being disproportionally impacted by governmental action aimed at slowing the spread of Wuhan Virus or mitigating its economic effects;

151


limited availability of new investment opportunities;
inability for us to replace our existing leverage when it becomes due or replace it on terms as favorable as our existing leverage;
a reduction in interest rates, including interest rates based on LIBOR and similar benchmarks, which may adversely impact our ability to lend money at attractive rates; and
general threats to the Company’s ability to operate successfully as a business development company.
The Wuhan Virus pandemic (including the preventative measures taken in response thereto) has to date (i) created significant business disruption issues for certain of our portfolio companies, and (ii) materially and adversely impacted the value and performance of certain of our portfolio companies. The Wuhan Virus pandemic is having a particularly adverse impact on industries in which certain of our portfolio companies operate, including energy, hospitality, travel, retail and restaurants. Certain of our portfolio companies in other industries have also been significantly impacted. The Wuhan Virus pandemic is continuing as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report, and its extended duration may have further adverse impacts on our portfolio companies after March 31, 2020, including for the reasons described below. Although on March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which contains provisions intended to mitigate the adverse economic effects of the Wuhan Virus pandemic, it is uncertain whether, or how much, our portfolio companies will be able to benefit from the CARES Act or any other subsequent legislation intended to provide financial relief or assistance. As a result of this disruption and the pressures on their liquidity, certain of our portfolio companies have been, or may continue to be, incentivized to draw on most, if not all, of the unfunded portion of any revolving or delayed draw term loans made by us, subject to availability under the terms of such loans.

The effects described above on our portfolio companies have, for certain of our portfolio companies to date, impacted their ability to make payments on their loans on a timely basis and in some cases have required us to amend certain terms, including payment terms. In addition, an extended duration of the Wuhan Virus pandemic may impact the ability of our portfolio companies to continue making their loan payments on a timely basis or meeting their loan covenants. The inability of portfolio companies to make timely payments or meet loan covenants may in the future require us to undertake similar amendment actions with respect to other of our investments or to restructure our investments. The amendment or restructuring of our investments may include the need for us to make additional investments in our portfolio companies (including debt or equity investments) beyond any existing commitments, exchange debt for equity, or change the payment terms of our investments to permit a portfolio company to pay a portion of its interest through payment-in-kind, which would defer the cash collection of such interest and add it to the principal balance, which would generally be due upon repayment of the outstanding principal.
    
The Wuhan Virus pandemic has adversely impacted the fair value of our investments as of March 31, 2020, and the values assigned as of this date may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize with respect to our investments. The impact of the Wuhan Virus pandemic may not yet be fully reflected in the valuation of our investments as our valuations, and particularly valuations of private investments and private companies, are inherently uncertain, may fluctuate over short periods of time and are often based on estimates, comparisons and qualitative evaluations of private information that is often from a time period earlier, generally two to three months, than the quarter for which we are reporting. Additionally, we may not have yet received information or certifications from our portfolio companies that indicate any or the full extent of declining performance or non-compliance with debt covenants, as applicable, as a result of the Wuhan Virus pandemic. As a result, our valuations at March 31, 2020 may not show the complete or continuing impact of the Wuhan Virus pandemic and the resulting measures taken in response thereto. In addition, write downs in the value of our investments have reduced, and any additional write downs may further reduce, our net asset value (and, as a result, our asset coverage calculation). Accordingly, we may continue to incur additional net unrealized losses or may incur realized losses after March 31, 2020, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
    
The volatility and disruption to the global economy from the Wuhan Virus pandemic has affected, and is expected to continue to affect, the pace of our investment activity, which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. Such volatility and disruption have also led to the increased credit spreads in the private debt capital markets. 

In response to the Wuhan Virus pandemic, Prospect Capital Management L.P. instituted a work from home policy until it is deemed safe to return to the office. Such a policy of an extended period of remote working by our Investment Adviser and/or its affiliate’s employees could strain our technology resources and introduce operational risks, including heightened cybersecurity risk. Remote working environments may be less secure and more susceptible to hacking attacks, including phishing and social engineering attempts that seek to exploit the Wuhan Virus pandemic.

Despite actions of the U.S. federal government and foreign governments, the uncertainty surrounding the Wuhan Virus pandemic and other factors has contributed to significant volatility and declines in the global public equity markets and global debt capital markets, including the market price of shares of our common stock and the trading prices of our issued debt securities. Shares of

152


our common stock are trading below our net asset value as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report. Market conditions may make it difficult for us to raise equity capital because, subject to some limited exceptions, as a BDC, we are generally not able to issue additional shares of our common stock at a price less than net asset value without first obtaining approval for such issuance from our stockholders, which we are currently seeking, and our independent directors. Moreover, these market conditions may make it difficult to access or obtain new indebtedness with similar terms to our existing indebtedness or otherwise have a negative effect on our cost of capital. See “Risk Factors-Risks Relating to Our Business-Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability. Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets in the United States and abroad, which may have a negative impact on our business and operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
It is virtually impossible to determine the ultimate impact of Wuhan Virus at this time. Accordingly, an investment in the Company is subject to an elevated degree of risk as compared to other market environments.

Changes relating to the LIBOR calculation process may adversely affect the value of the LIBOR-indexed, floating-rate debt securities in our portfolio or issued by us.
In the recent past, concerns have been publicized that some of the member banks surveyed by the British Bankers’ Association, or the “BBA,” in connection with the calculation of LIBOR across a range of maturities and currencies may have been under-reporting or otherwise manipulating the inter-bank lending rate applicable to them in order to profit on their derivatives positions or to avoid an appearance of capital insufficiency or adverse reputational or other consequences that may have resulted from reporting inter-bank lending rates higher than those they actually submitted. A number of BBA member banks entered into settlements with their regulators and law enforcement agencies with respect to alleged manipulation of LIBOR, and investigations by regulators and governmental authorities in various jurisdictions are ongoing.
In July 2017, the head of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority announced the desire to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. The announcement indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. It is impossible to predict whether and to what extent banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the administrator of LIBOR or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Actions by the British Bankers’ Association, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority or other regulators or law enforcement agencies as a result of these or future events, may result in changes to the manner in which LIBOR is determined. In addition, any further changes or reforms to the determination or supervision of LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR, which could have an adverse impact on the market for LIBOR-based securities or the value of our portfolio of LIBOR-indexed, floating-rate debt securities
At this time, no consensus exists as to what rate or rates will become accepted alternatives to LIBOR, although the U.S. Federal Reserve, in connection with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Given the inherent differences between LIBOR and SOFR, or any other alternative benchmark rate that may be established, there are many uncertainties regarding a transition from LIBOR, including but not limited to the need to amend all contracts with LIBOR as the referenced rate and how this will impact the cost of variable rate debt and certain derivative financial instruments. In addition, SOFR or other replacement rates may fail to gain market acceptance. Any failure of SOFR or alternative reference rates to gain market acceptance could adversely affect the return on, value of and market for securities linked to such rates.
Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability. Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets in the United States and abroad, which may have a negative impact on our business and operations.
From time to time, capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability. For example, between 2007 and 2009, the global capital markets were unstable as evidenced by periodic disruptions in liquidity in the debt capital markets, significant write-offs in the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk and the failure of major financial institutions. Despite actions of the United States federal government and foreign governments, these events contributed to worsening general economic conditions that materially and adversely impacted the broader financial and credit markets and reduced the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole and financial services firms in particular. While the adverse effects of these conditions have abated to a degree, global financial markets experienced significant volatility following the downgrade by Standard & Poor’s on August 5, 2011 of the long-term credit rating of U.S. Treasury debt from AAA to AA+. These market conditions have historically had, and could again have, a material adverse effect on debt and equity capital markets in the United States and Europe, which could have a materially negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We and other companies in the financial services sector may have to access, if available, alternative markets for debt and equity capital. The Company is working to navigate the significant challenges created by the unprecedented coronavirus (“Wuhan Virus”) pandemic. If adverse market conditions, including as a result of the Wuhan Virus pandemic, continue or increase in severity and duration, equity capital

153


may be difficult to raise because subject to some limited exceptions, as a BDC, we are generally not able to issue additional shares of our common stock at a price less than net asset value without general approval by our stockholders, which we currently have, and approval of the specific issuance by our Board of Directors. In addition, our ability to incur indebtedness or issue preferred stock is limited by applicable regulations such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, must equal at least 150% immediately after each time we incur indebtedness or issue preferred stock. The debt capital that may be available, if at all, may be at a higher cost and on less favorable terms and conditions in the future. Any inability to raise capital could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Current market conditions and market conditions may in the future make it difficult to extend the maturity of or refinance our existing indebtedness, including the final maturity of our revolving credit facility in March 2024, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business. The re-appearance of market conditions similar to those experienced from 2007 through 2009 for any substantial length of time or worsened market conditions, including as a result of U.S. government shutdowns or the perceived creditworthiness of the United States, could make it difficult to extend the maturity of, or refinance, our existing indebtedness, or obtain new indebtedness with similar terms and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business. The debt capital that will be available to us in the future, if at all, may be at a higher cost and on less favorable terms and conditions than what we currently experience. Further, if we are unable to raise or refinance debt, then our equity investors may not benefit from the potential for increased returns on equity resulting from leverage and we may be limited in our ability to make new commitments or to fund existing commitments to our portfolio companies.
The illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments, if required. As a result, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded our investments if forced to liquidate quickly.
Given the extreme volatility and dislocation that the capital markets have historically experienced, many BDCs have faced, and may in the future face, a challenging environment in which to raise capital. We may in the future have difficulty accessing debt and equity capital, and a severe disruption in the global financial markets or deterioration in credit and financing conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, significant changes in the capital markets, including the extreme volatility and disruption, have had, and may in the future have, a negative effect on the valuations of our investments and on the potential for liquidity events involving our investments. An inability to raise capital, and any required sale of our investments for liquidity purposes, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
The Investment Adviser does not know how long the financial markets will continue to be affected by these events and cannot predict the effects of these or similar events in the future on the United States economy and securities markets or on our investments. The Investment Adviser monitors developments and seeks to manage our investments in a manner consistent with achieving our investment objective, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so; and the Investment Adviser may not timely anticipate or manage existing, new or additional risks, contingencies or developments, including regulatory developments in the current or future market environment.
We are required to record certain of our assets at fair value, as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors in accordance with our valuation policy. As a result, volatility in the capital markets may have a material adverse effect on our investment valuations and our net asset value, even if we plan to hold investments to maturity.
Risks Relating to Our Operation as a Business Development Company
Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to raise, and the way in which we raise, additional capital. These constraints may hinder our Investment Adviser’s ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and to achieve our investment objective.
We have incurred indebtedness under our revolving credit facility and through the issuance of the Unsecured Notes and, in the future, may issue preferred stock or debt securities and/or borrow additional money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer to collectively as “senior securities,” up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted, as a BDC, to incur indebtedness or issue senior securities only in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 150% after each issuance of senior securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy this test, which would prohibit us from paying dividends in cash or other property and could prohibit us from qualifying as a RIC. If we cannot satisfy this test, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments or sell additional shares of common stock at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous in order to repay a portion of our indebtedness or otherwise increase our net assets. In addition, issuance of additional common stock could dilute the percentage ownership of our current stockholders in us.
As a BDC regulated under provisions of the 1940 Act, we are not generally able to issue and sell our common stock at a price below the current net asset value per share without stockholder approval. If our common stock trades at a discount to net asset

154


value, this restriction could adversely affect our ability to raise capital. We may, however, sell our common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the current net asset value of our common stock in certain circumstances, including if (i)(1) the holders of a majority of our shares (or, if less, at least 67% of a quorum consisting of a majority of our shares) and a similar majority of the holders of our shares who are not affiliated persons of us approve the sale of our common stock at a price that is less than the current net asset value, and (2) a majority of our Directors who have no financial interest in the transaction and a majority of our independent Directors (a) determine that such sale is in our and our stockholders’ best interests and (b) in consultation with any underwriter or underwriters of the offering, make a good faith determination as of a time either immediately prior to the first solicitation by us or on our behalf of firm commitments to purchase such shares, or immediately prior to the issuance of such shares, that the price at which such shares are to be sold is not less than a price which closely approximates the market value of such shares, less any distributing commission or discount or (ii) a majority of the number of the beneficial holders of our common stock entitled to vote at our annual meeting, without regard to whether a majority of such shares are voted in favor of the proposal, approve the sale of our common stock at a price that is less than the current net asset value per share.
To generate cash for funding new investments, we pledged a substantial portion of our portfolio investments under our revolving credit facility. These assets are not available to secure other sources of funding or for securitization. Our ability to obtain additional secured or unsecured financing on attractive terms in the future is uncertain.
Alternatively, we may securitize our future loans to generate cash for funding new investments. See “Risk Factors-Securitization of our assets subjects us to various risks” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
New legislation permits the Company to incur additional leverage.
Business development companies are generally able to issue senior securities such that their asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% of gross assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, after each issuance of senior securities. In March 2018, the Small Business Credit Availability Act added Section 61(a)(2) to the 1940 Act, a successor provision to Section 61(a)(1) referenced therein, which reduces the asset coverage requirement applicable to business development companies from 200% to 150% so long as the business development company meets certain disclosure requirements and obtains certain approvals. On May 5, 2020, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a)(2) to the Company effective as of May 6, 2020. As a result of the stockholder approval, effective May 6, 2020, the asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act applicable to the Company decreased to 150% from 200%. In other words, under the 1940 Act, the Company is now able to borrow $2 for investment purposes for every $1 of investor equity, as opposed to borrowing $1 for investment purposes for every $1 of investor equity. As a result, the Company will be able to incur additional indebtedness in the future and investors in the Company may face increased investment risk. In addition, the Company’s management fee payable to the Investment Adviser is based on the Company’s average adjusted gross assets, which includes leverage and, as a result, if the Company incurs additional leverage, management fees paid to the Investment Adviser would increase.
We have elected to rely on certain relief granted by the SEC related to the Wuhan Virus pandemic that may have the effect of allowing us to incur more leverage than we otherwise would be permitted to incur. 
On April 8, 2020, in connection with the outbreak of the Wuhan Virus pandemic, the SEC issued an Order Under Sections 6(c), 17(d), 38(a) and 57(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 Thereunder Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Investment Company Act and Certain Rules Thereunder, 1940 Act Release No. 33837 (Apr. 8, 2020) (the “April 2020 Order”), which provides exemptions from certain requirements of the 1940 Act. Section II of the April 2020 Order (i) affords BDCs greater flexibility in calculating asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, (ii) requires a BDC's board of directors, including a required majority of such board, as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act, to determine that the issuance or sale of covered senior securities is permitted by this April 2020 Order and is in the best interests of the BDC and its stockholders, (iii) requires prior disclosure on Form 8-K of an election to rely on Section II of the April 2020 Order (an “Election”), and (iv) includes certain limitations on new investments, among other requirements detailed in the April 2020 Order.
The Company's Board of Directors, including a required majority of the Board (as defined in section 57(o) of the 1940 Act), approved the Election on April 13, 2020. In approving the Election the Board of Directors considered, among other things, the conditions to rely on and be subject to the April 2020 Order and determined that the issuance and sale of the Company's senior securities is permitted by the April 2020 Order and is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Election permits us to use a modified formula to calculate our asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements and, in doing so, permits us to rely in part on the fair value of our assets as of December 31, 2019. The overall effect of the Election is to make it easier for us to meet our applicable asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, as well as for purposes of covenants referencing the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, which could result in the Company incurring additional leverage and being subject to the risks associated with additional leverage, but while also providing the

155


Company with additional flexibility to manage its portfolio and support its portfolio companies during the economic disruption caused by the Wuhan Virus pandemic. The Election is effective through December 31, 2020 unless the Company withdraws it earlier. The Election does not impact calculation of the Company’s asset coverage ratios for purposes of the declaration or payment of any dividend or any other distribution.
Risks Relating to Our Securities
Senior securities, including debt, expose us to additional risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We currently use our revolving credit facility to leverage our portfolio and we expect in the future to borrow from and issue senior debt securities to banks and other lenders and may securitize certain of our portfolio investments. We also have the Unsecured Notes outstanding, which are a form of leverage and are senior in payment rights to our common stock.
With certain limited exceptions, as a BDC, we are only allowed to borrow amounts or otherwise issue senior securities such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing or other issuance. The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on the Investment Adviser’s and our Board of Directors’ assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing. There is no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. Leverage involves risks and special considerations for stockholders, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, including the following:
A likelihood of greater volatility in the net asset value and market price of our common stock;
Diminished operating flexibility as a result of asset coverage or investment portfolio composition requirements required by lenders or investors that are more stringent than those imposed by the 1940 Act;
The possibility that investments will have to be liquidated at less than full value or at inopportune times to comply with debt covenants or to pay interest or dividends on the leverage;
Increased operating expenses due to the cost of leverage, including issuance and servicing costs;
Convertible or exchangeable securities, such as the Convertible Notes outstanding or those issued in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common stock;
Subordination to lenders’ superior claims on our assets as a result of which lenders will be able to receive proceeds available in the case of our liquidation before any proceeds will be distributed to our stockholders;
Difficulty meeting our payment and other obligations under the Unsecured Notes and our other outstanding debt;
The occurrence of an event of default if we fail to comply with the financial and/or other restrictive covenants contained in our debt agreements, including the credit agreement and each indenture governing the Unsecured Notes, which event of default could result in all or some of our debt becoming immediately due and payable;
Reduced availability of our cash flow to fund investments, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes, and limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for these purposes;
The risk of increased sensitivity to interest rate increases on our indebtedness with variable interest rates, including borrowings under our amended senior credit facility; and
Reduced flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, and increasing our vulnerability to, changes in our business, the industry in which we operate and the general economy.

For example, the amount we may borrow under our revolving credit facility is determined, in part, by the fair value of our investments. If the fair value of our investments declines, we may be forced to sell investments at a loss to maintain compliance with our borrowing limits. Other debt facilities we may enter into in the future may contain similar provisions. Any such forced sales would reduce our net asset value and also make it difficult for the net asset value to recover. The Investment Adviser and our Board of Directors in their best judgment nevertheless may determine to use leverage if they expect that the benefits to our stockholders of maintaining the leveraged position will outweigh the risks.
In addition, our ability to meet our payment and other obligations of the Unsecured Notes and our credit facility depends on our ability to generate significant cash flow in the future. This, to some extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors as well as other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot provide assurance that our business will generate cash flow from operations, or that future borrowings will be available to us under our existing credit facility or otherwise, in an amount sufficient to enable us to meet our payment obligations under the Unsecured Notes and our other debt and to fund other liquidity needs. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt obligations, we may need to refinance or restructure our debt, including the Unsecured Notes, sell assets, reduce or delay capital investments, or seek to raise additional capital. If we are unable to implement one or

156


more of these alternatives, we may not be able to meet our payment obligations under the Unsecured Notes and our other debt.

Illustration.    The following table illustrates the effect of leverage on returns from an investment in our common stock assuming various annual returns, net of interest expense. The calculations in the table below are hypothetical and actual returns may be higher or lower than those appearing below. The calculation assumes (i) $5.8 billion in total assets, (ii) an average cost of funds of 5.41%, (iii) $2.4 billion in debt outstanding and (iv) $3.4 billion of shareholders’ equity.

The assumed portfolio return is required by regulation of the SEC and is not a prediction of, and does not represent, our projected or actual performance. Actual returns may be greater or less than those appearing in the table. Pursuant to SEC regulations, this table is calculated as of June 30, 2019. As a result, it has not been updated to take into account any changes in assets or leverage since June 30, 2019.
The Convertible Notes and the Public Notes present other risks to holders of our common stock, including the possibility that such notes could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party and accounting uncertainty.
Certain provisions of the Convertible Notes and the Public Notes could make it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire us. Upon the occurrence of certain transactions constituting a fundamental change, holders of the Convertible Notes and the Public Notes will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase all of their notes or any portion of the principal amount of such notes in integral multiples of $1,000. We may also be required to increase the conversion rate or provide for conversion into the acquirer’s capital stock in the event of certain fundamental changes with respect to the Convertible Notes. These provisions could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.
The accounting for convertible debt securities is subject to frequent scrutiny by the accounting regulatory bodies and is subject to change. We cannot predict if or when any such change could be made and any such change could have an adverse impact on our reported or future financial results. Any such impacts could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
In addition to regulatory restrictions that restrict our ability to raise capital, our credit facility contains various covenants which, if not complied with, could accelerate repayment under the facility, thereby materially and adversely affecting our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations.
The agreement governing our credit facility requires us to comply with certain financial and operational covenants. These covenants include:
Restrictions on the level of indebtedness that we are permitted to incur in relation to the value of our assets;
Restrictions on our ability to incur liens; and
Maintenance of a minimum level of stockholders’ equity.

As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with these covenants. However, our continued compliance with these covenants depends on many factors, some of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, there are no assurances that we will continue to comply with the covenants in our credit facility. Failure to comply with these covenants would result in a default under this facility which, if we were unable to obtain a waiver from the lenders thereunder, could result in an acceleration of repayments under the facility and thereby have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Failure to extend our existing credit facility, the revolving period of which is currently scheduled to expire on September 9, 2023, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position and our ability to pay expenses and make distributions.
The revolving period for our credit facility with a syndicate of lenders is currently scheduled to terminate on September 9, 2023, with an additional one year amortization period (with distributions allowed) after the completion of the revolving period. During such one year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders. If the credit facility is not renewed or extended by the participant banks by September 9, 2023, we will not be able to make further borrowings under the facility after such date and the outstanding principal balance on that date will be due and payable on September 9, 2024. As of March 31, 2020, we had $165,600 of outstanding borrowings under our credit facility. Interest on borrowings under the credit

facility is one-month LIBOR plus 220 basis points with a minimum LIBOR floor of zero. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the credit facility equal to either 50 basis points if more than 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 100 basis points if more than 35% and an amount less than or equal to 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 150 basis points if an amount less than or equal to 35% of the credit facility is drawn.
The credit facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility. If we are unable to extend our facility or find a new source of borrowing on acceptable terms, we will be required to pay down the amounts outstanding under the facility during the two-year term-out period through one or more of the following: (1) principal collections on our securities pledged under the facility, (2) at our option, interest collections on our securities pledged under the facility and cash collections on our securities not pledged under the facility, or (3) possible liquidation of some or all of our loans and other assets, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position and may force us to decrease or stop paying certain expenses and making distributions until the facility is repaid. In addition, our stock price could decline significantly, we would be restricted in our ability to acquire new investments and, in connection with our year-end audit, and our independent registered accounting firm could raise an issue as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
Failure to refinance our existing Unsecured Notes could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position.
The Unsecured Notes mature at various dates from April 15, 2020 to October 15, 2043. If we are unable to refinance the Unsecured Notes or find a new source of borrowing on acceptable terms, we will be required to pay down the amounts outstanding at maturity under the facility during the two-year term-out period through one or more of the following: (1) borrowing additional funds under our then current credit facility, (2) issuance of additional common stock or (3) possible liquidation of some or all of our loans and other assets, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. In addition, our stock price could decline significantly; we would be restricted in our ability to acquire new investments and, in connection with our year-end audit, our independent registered accounting firm could raise an issue as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
The trading market or market value of our publicly issued debt securities may fluctuate.
Our publicly issued debt securities may or may not have an established trading market. We cannot assure our noteholders that a trading market for our publicly issued debt securities will ever develop or be maintained if developed. In addition to our creditworthiness, many factors may materially adversely affect the trading market for, and market value of, our publicly issued debt securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
the time remaining to the maturity of these debt securities;
the outstanding principal amount of debt securities with terms identical to these debt securities;
the ratings assigned by national statistical ratings agencies;
the general economic environment;
the supply of debt securities trading in the secondary market, if any;
the redemption or repayment features, if any, of these debt securities;
the level, direction and volatility of market interest rates generally; and
market rates of interest higher or lower than rates borne by the debt securities.

Our noteholders should also be aware that there may be a limited number of buyers when they decide to sell their debt securities. This too may materially adversely affect the market value of the debt securities or the trading market for the debt securities.
Terms relating to redemption may materially adversely affect our noteholders return on any debt securities that we may issue.
If our noteholders’ debt securities are redeemable at our option, we may choose to redeem their debt securities at times when prevailing interest rates are lower than the interest rate paid on their debt securities. In addition, if our noteholders’ debt securities are subject to mandatory redemption, we may be required to redeem their debt securities also at times when prevailing interest rates are lower than the interest rate paid on their debt securities. In this circumstance, our noteholders may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as their debt securities being redeemed.
