TRIPLEPOINT VENTURE GROWTH BDC CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019
(unaudited)

 

Note 1. Organization

TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp. (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was formed on June 28, 2013 and priced its initial public offering and commenced investment operations on March 5, 2014. The Company is structured as an externally-managed non-diversified, closed-end investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Company was formed to expand the venture growth stage business segment of TriplePoint Capital LLC’s (“TPC”) investment platform. TPC is widely recognized as a leading global financing provider devoted to serving venture capital-backed companies with creative, flexible and customized debt financing, equity capital and complementary services throughout their lifespan. The Company’s investment objective is to maximize its total return to stockholders primarily in the form of current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by lending primarily with warrants to venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries backed by TPC’s select group of leading venture capital investors. The Company is externally managed by TriplePoint Advisers LLC (the “Adviser”), which is registered as an investment adviser under the 1940 Act and is a wholly owned subsidiary of TPC. The Adviser is responsible for sourcing, reviewing and structuring investment opportunities, underwriting and performing due diligence on investments and monitoring the investment portfolio on an ongoing basis. The Adviser was organized in August 2013 and, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement entered into between the Company and the Adviser, the Company pays the Adviser a base management fee and an incentive fee for its services. The Company has also entered into an administration agreement with TriplePoint Administrator LLC (the “Administrator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Adviser, and pays fees and expenses for services provided.

The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries: TPVG Variable Funding Company LLC (the “Financing Subsidiary”), a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity established for utilizing the Company’s revolving credit facility, and TPVG Investment LLC, an entity established for holding certain of the Company’s investments in order to benefit from the tax treatment of these investments and create a tax structure that is more advantageous with respect to the Company’s RIC tax treatment. These subsidiaries are consolidated in the financial statements of the Company.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by GAAP for the annual reporting of consolidated financial statements are omitted.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. All adjustments and reclassifications that are necessary for the fair representation of financial results as of and for the periods presented have been included and all intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Certain items in the prior period’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been conformed to the current period’s presentation. These presentation changes, if any, did not impact any prior amounts of reported total assets, total liabilities, net assets or results of operations.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 6, 2019.  

Note 3. Related Party Agreements and Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

In accordance with the Board approved investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”), subject to the overall supervision of the Board and in accordance with the 1940 Act, the Adviser manages the day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory services to the Company. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser:

 

19


 

determines the composition of the Company’s portfolio, the nature and timing of changes to the Company’s portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes;

 

identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of investments;

 

executes, closes, services and monitors investments;

 

determines the securities and other assets purchased, retained or sold;

 

performs due diligence on prospective investments; and

 

provides the Company with such other investment advisory, research and related services as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of its funds.

As consideration for the investment advisory and management services provided, and pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the Adviser a fee consisting of two components—a base management fee and an incentive fee. The cost of both the base management fee and incentive fee is ultimately borne by the Company’s stockholders.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of the Company’s average adjusted gross assets, including assets purchased with borrowed funds. For services rendered under the Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of its two most recently completed calendar quarters. Such amount is appropriately adjusted (based on the actual number of days elapsed relative to the total number of days in such calendar quarter) for any share issuance or repurchases during a calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial month or quarter are appropriately pro-rated.

The incentive fee, which provides the Adviser with a share of the income it generates for the Company, consists of two components— net investment income and net capital gains—which are largely independent of each other, and may result in one or both components payable in a given period.

Under the investment income component, the Company pays the Adviser 20.0% of the amount by which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 2.0% (8.0% annualized) of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a “catch-up” provision pursuant to which the Adviser receives all of such income in excess of 2.0% but less than 2.5%, subject to a total return requirement. The effect of the “catch-up” provision is that, subject to the total return provision discussed below, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter, the Adviser receives 20.0% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as if the 2.0% hurdle rate did not apply. The foregoing incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no incentive fee in respect of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income is payable except to the extent that 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since the effective date of the Company’s election to be regulated as a BDC exceeds the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid since the effective date of the Company’s election to be regulated as a BDC. In other words, any investment income incentive fee that is payable in a calendar quarter is limited to the lesser of (i) 20.0% of the amount by which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such calendar quarter exceeds the 2.0% hurdle, subject to the “catch-up” provision and (ii) (x) 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations since the effective date of the Company’s election to be regulated as a BDC minus (y) the cumulative incentive fees accrued and/or paid since the effective date of the Company’s election to be regulated as a BDC. For the foregoing purpose, the “cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations” is the sum of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation since the effective date of the Company’s election to be regulated as a BDC. The Company elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act on March 5, 2014.

Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital gains or losses. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where it incurs a loss, subject to the total return requirement described in the preceding paragraph. For example, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, the Company may pay the applicable incentive fee even if it has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized losses, subject to the total return requirement. The Company’s net investment income used to calculate this component of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s assets used to calculate the 1.75% base management fee. These calculations are appropriately pro-rated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuance or repurchase during the current quarter.

Under the capital gains component of the incentive fee, the Company pays the Adviser at the end of each calendar year 20.0% of the Company’s aggregate cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of that year, computed net of aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized losses through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. For the foregoing purpose, the Company’s “aggregate cumulative realized capital gains” does not include any unrealized gains. It should be noted that the Company accrues an incentive fee for accounting purposes taking into account any unrealized gains in accordance with GAAP. The capital gains component of the incentive fee is not subject to any minimum return to stockholders. If such amount is negative, then no capital gains incentive fee is payable for such year. Additionally, if the Advisory Agreement is terminated as of a date that is not a calendar year end, the termination date will be treated as though it were a calendar year end for purposes of calculating and paying the capital gains incentive fee.

The base management fee accrued and payable, income incentive fee accrued and payable, and capital gains incentive fee accrued are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and summarized in the table below. The Adviser has agreed to exclude U.S. Treasury Bills acquired at the end of each applicable quarter in the calculation of gross assets for purposes of determining its base management fee. The Company had cumulative realized and unrealized losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, and, as a result, no capital gains incentive fees were recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018.

The table above presents the base management and incentive fees accrued during the period which are paid in the quarter after they are earned. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, approximately $1.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively, of base management fees earned in prior periods were paid, and approximately $2.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively, of income incentive fees earned in prior periods were paid. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, approximately $1.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of base management fees earned in prior periods were paid, and approximately $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively, of income incentive fees earned in prior periods were paid.

Administration Agreement

The Board approved administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) provides that the Administrator is responsible for furnishing the Company with office facilities and equipment and providing the Company with clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping services and other administrative services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or oversees, or arranges for, the performance of the Company’s required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial and other records which the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports to the Company’s stockholders and reports and other materials filed with the SEC and any other regulatory authority. In addition, the Administrator assists the Company in determining and publishing net asset value (“NAV”), overseeing the preparation and filing of the Company’s tax returns and printing and disseminating reports and other materials to the Company’s stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator also provides managerial assistance on the Company’s behalf to those companies that have accepted the Company’s offer to provide such assistance.

Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to the Company’s allocable portion (subject to the review of the Board) of the Administrator’s overhead resulting from its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and the allocable portion of the cost of the chief compliance officer and chief financial officer and their respective staffs. In addition, if requested to provide significant managerial assistance to the Company’s portfolio companies, the Administrator is paid an additional amount based on the services provided, which shall not exceed the amount the Company receives from such companies for providing this assistance. 

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, expenses paid or payable by the Company to the Administrator under the Administration Agreement were each approximately $0.4 million, of which approximately $24 thousand and $64 thousand, respectively, were paid or payable to third party service providers.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, expenses paid or payable by the Company to the Administrator under the Administration Agreement were approximately $0.8 million each, respectively, of which approximately $47 thousand and $128 thousand, respectively, were paid or payable to third party service providers.

Note 4. Investments

The Company measures the fair value of its investments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or “ASC Topic 820”, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or “FASB”. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

 

21


The Valuation Committee of the Board is responsible for assisting the Board in valuing investments that are not publicly traded or for which current market values are not readily available. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued using market quotations, which are generally obtained from independent pricing services, broker-dealers or market makers. With respect to portfolio investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Board, with the assistance of the Adviser and its senior investment team and independent valuation agents, is responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair value in accordance with the valuation policy approved by the Board. If more than one valuation method is used to measure fair value, the results are evaluated and weighted, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. The Adviser considers a range of fair values based upon the valuation techniques utilized and selects a value within that range that most accurately represents fair value based on current market conditions as well as other factors the Adviser’s senior investment team considers relevant. The Board determines fair value of its investments on at least a quarterly basis or at such other times when the Board feels it would be appropriate to do so given the circumstances. A determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates and depends on the facts and circumstances present at each valuation date. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining fair value of portfolio investments that do not have a readily available market value, fair value of investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.

ASC Topic 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. ASC Topic 820 also provides guidance regarding a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings and provides for enhanced disclosures determined by the level of information used in the valuation. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, these inputs are summarized in the three levels listed below.

Level 1—Valuations are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2—Valuations are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable.

Level 3—Valuations are based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models incorporating significant unobservable inputs, such as discounted cash flow models and other similar valuations techniques. The valuation of Level 3 assets and liabilities generally requires significant management judgment due to the inability to observe inputs to valuation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of observable input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and it considers factors specific to the investment.

Under ASC 820, fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset occurs in the principal market for the asset or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset, which may be a hypothetical market, excluding transaction costs. The principal market for any asset is the market with the greatest volume and level of activity for such asset in which the reporting entity would or could sell or transfer the asset. In determining the principal market for an asset or liability, it is assumed that the reporting entity has access to such market as of the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable and willing and able to transact.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

 

The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the Adviser’s professionals that are responsible for the portfolio investment;

 

Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with the Adviser’s senior investment team and approved by the Adviser’s executive management team;

 

At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment is reviewed by an independent valuation firm. However, the Board does not have de minimis investments of less than 1.0% of the Company’s gross assets (up to an

 

22


 

aggregate of 10% of the Company’s gross assets) independently reviewed, given the expenses involved in connection therewith;

 

The Valuation Committee of the Board then reviews these preliminary valuations and makes fair value recommendations to the Board; and

 

The Board then discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in the Company’s portfolio in good faith, based on the input of the Adviser, the respective independent valuation firms and the Valuation Committee.

Debt Investments

The debt investments identified on the condensed consolidated schedules of investments are loans and equipment leases made to venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries which are backed by a select group of leading venture capital investors. These investments are considered Level 3 assets under ASC Topic 820 as there is no known or accessible market or market indices for these types of debt instruments and thus the Adviser’s senior management team must estimate the fair value of these investment securities based on models utilizing unobservable inputs.

To estimate the fair value of debt investments, the Company compares the cost basis of each debt investment, including any OID, to the resulting fair value determined using a discounted cash flow model, unless another model is more appropriate based on the circumstances at the measurement date. The discounted cash flow approach entails analyzing the interest rate spreads for recently completed financing transactions which are similar in nature to these debt investments, in order to determine a comparable range of effective market interest rates. The range of interest rate spreads utilized is based on borrowers with similar credit profiles. All remaining expected cash flows of the investment are discounted using this range of interest rates to determine a range of fair values for the debt investment.

The valuation process includes, among other things, evaluating the underlying investment performance of the portfolio company’s current financial condition and ability to raise additional capital, as well as macro-economic events that may impact valuations. These events include, but are not limited to, current market yields and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. Changes in these unobservable inputs could result in significantly different fair value measurements.

Under certain circumstances, an alternative technique may be used to value certain debt investments that better reflect the fair value of the investment, such as the price paid or realized in a recently completed transaction or a binding offer received in an arm’s length transaction, or the use of multiple probability weighted cash flow models when the expected future cash flows contain elements of variability or estimates of proceeds that would be received in a liquidation scenario.

Warrant Investments

Warrant fair values are primarily determined using a Black Scholes option pricing model. Privately held warrants and equity-related securities are valued based on an analysis of various factors, including, but not limited to, those listed below. Increases or decreases in any of the unobservable inputs described below could result in a material change in fair value:

 

Underlying enterprise value of the issuer based on available information, including any information regarding the most recent financing round of borrower. Valuation techniques to determine enterprise value include market multiple approaches, income approaches or the use of recent rounds of financing and the portfolio company’s capital structure. Valuation techniques are also utilized to allocate the enterprise fair value of a portfolio company to the specific class of common or preferred stock exercisable in the warrant. Such techniques take into account the rights and preferences of the portfolio company’s securities, expected exit scenarios, and volatility associated with such outcomes to allocate the fair value to the specific class of stock held in the portfolio. Such techniques include option pricing models, including back solve techniques, probability weighted expected return models and other techniques determined to be appropriate.

 

Volatility, or the amount of uncertainty or risk about the size of the changes in the warrant investment price, is based on comparable publicly traded companies within indices similar in nature to the underlying company issuing the warrant.

 

The risk-free interest rates are derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The risk-free interest rates are calculated based on a weighted average of the risk-free interest rates that correspond closest to the expected remaining life of the warrant investment.

 

Other adjustments, including a marketability discount on private company warrant investments, are estimated based on the Adviser’s judgment about the general industry environment.

 

Historical portfolio experience on cancellations and exercises of warrant investments are utilized as the basis for determining the estimated life of the warrant investment in each financial reporting period. Warrant investments may be exercised in the event of acquisitions, mergers or initial public offerings, and cancelled due to events such as bankruptcies, restructuring activities or additional financings. These events cause the expected remaining life assumption to be shorter than the contractual term of the warrant investment.

 

23


Under certain circumstances alternative techniques may be used to value certain warrants that more accurately reflect the warrants’ fair values, such as an expected settlement of a warrant in the near term, a model that incorporates a put feature associated with the warrant, or the price paid or realized in a recently completed transaction or binding offer received in an arm’s-length transaction. The fair value may be determined based on the expected proceeds to be received from such settlement or based on the net present value of the expected proceeds from the put option.

These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment. There is no single standard for determining the estimated fair value of investments that do not have an active observable market. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, as they are based on estimates, and their values may fluctuate over time. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market for these investments existed. In some cases, the fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing different methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined.

Equity Investments

The fair value of an equity investment in a privately held company is initially the amount invested. The Company adjusts the fair value of equity investments in private companies upon the completion of a new third party round of equity financing subsequent to its investment. The Company may adjust the fair value of an equity investment absent a new equity financing event based upon positive or negative changes in a portfolio company’s financial or operational performance. The Company may also reference comparable transactions and/or secondary market transactions of comparable companies to estimate fair value. These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment.

The fair value of an equity investment in a publicly traded company is based upon the closing public share price on the date of measurement. These assets are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. There is no single standard for determining the estimated fair value of investments which do not have an active public market. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, as they are based on estimates, and their values may fluctuate over time. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market for these investments existed. In some cases, the fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing different methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined.

Investment Valuation

Investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized in the tables below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations as of June 30, 2019 and as of December 31, 2018. The Company transfers investments in and out of Level 1, 2 and 3 as of the beginning balance sheet date, based on changes in the use of observable and unobservable inputs utilized to perform the valuation for the period.

As of June 30, 2019 the fair values for all but three of the Company’s debt investments were estimated using discounted cash flow models based on anticipated cash flows and a discount rate deemed most appropriate for each investment given the facts and circumstances specific to each portfolio company and market yields as of the reporting date. The fair value for three debt investments as of June 30, 2019 were estimated using a Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. As of June 30, 2019, fair values for all but five warrant investment positions were estimated using an Option-Pricing Method that values individual equity classes based on their economic rights and preferences using the Black Scholes Option-Pricing Model. One warrant investment was valued using a combination of the Option-Pricing Method and the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. Four investments contain fee conditions which may result in cash proceeds to the Company upon a qualifying liquidity event. These investments were valued using a discounted expected return method. As of June 30, 2019, all but three equity investments were valued using the market approach or the last equity financing round. The fair market value for one investment as of June 30, 2019 was derived based on a combination of the Option-Pricing Method and the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. The fair market values for two investments as of June 30, 2019 were based on time discounted expected recovery.

As of December 31, 2018, the fair values for all but four of the Company’s debt investments were estimated using discounted cash flow models based on anticipated cash flows and a discount rate deemed most appropriate for each investment given the facts and circumstances specific to each portfolio company and market yields as of the reporting date. The fair values of the four debt investments as of December 31, 2018 were estimated using the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. As of December 31, 2018, fair values for all but one warrant investment positions were estimated using an Option-Pricing Method that values individual equity classes based on their economic rights and preferences using the Black Scholes Option-Pricing Model. One warrant investment position was valued using a combination of the Option-Pricing Method and the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. Certain investments within the portfolio contain fee conditions which may result in cash proceeds to the Company upon a qualifying liquidity event. These fees were valued using a discounted expected return method. As of December 31, 2018, all but five equity investments were valued using the market approach or the last equity financing round. The fair market values for four investments as of December 31, 2018 were derived based on a combination of the Option-Pricing Method and the Probability-Weighted Expected Return Method. The fair market value for one investment as of December 31, 2018 was based on time discounted expected recovery.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, approximately $430.0 million and $385.9 million of the Company’s assets were pledged for borrowings under its revolving credit facility, respectively.

Note 5. Credit Risk

Debt investments may be affected by business, financial market or legal uncertainties. Prices of investments may be volatile, and a variety of factors that are inherently difficult to predict, such as domestic, economic and political developments, may significantly affect the value of these investments. In addition, the value of these investments may fluctuate as the general level of interest rates fluctuate.

In many instances, the portfolio company’s ability to repay the debt investments is dependent on additional funding by its venture capital investors, a future sale or an initial public offering. The value of these investments may be detrimentally affected to the extent a borrower defaults on its obligations, there is insufficient collateral and/or there are extensive legal and other costs incurred in collecting on a defaulted loan.

Note 6. Borrowings

Credit Facility

In February 2014, the Company, along with its Financing Subsidiary as borrower, entered into a credit agreement with Deutsche Bank AG, acting as administrative agent and a lender, and KeyBank National Association, TIAA Bank, and AloStar Bank of Commerce, as other lenders, which provided the Company with a $150.0 million commitment, subject to borrowing base requirements (as amended and restated from time to time, the “Credit Facility”). In August 2014, the Company amended the Credit Facility to increase the total commitments available thereunder to $200.0 million in aggregate. In January 2018, the Company amended and renewed the Credit Facility, which, among other things, increased the total commitment by $10.0 million to $210.0 million and replaced AloStar Bank of Commerce with MUFG Union Bank, N.A as a lender. In May 2019, the Company amended and renewed the Credit Facility, which, among other things, (i) increased the total commitment by $55.0 million to $265.0 million, (ii) added an accordion feature under the Credit Facility, which allows the Company to increase the size of the Credit Facility to an amount not to exceed $400 million; and (iii) extended the revolving period of the Credit Facility from February 21, 2020 to May 31, 2021 and the maturity date of the Credit Facility from August 21, 2021 to November 31, 2022.

 

28


Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at the sum of (i) a floating rate based on certain indices, including LIBOR and commercial paper rates, plus (ii) a margin of 2.80% if facility utilization is greater than or equal to 75%, 2.90% if utilization is greater than or equal to 50%, 3.00% if utilization is less than 50% and 4.5% during the amortization period. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured only by the assets of the Financing Subsidiary. The Company agreed to pay Deutsche Bank AG a syndication fee and to pay to Deutsche Bank AG a fee to act as administrative agent under the Credit Facility as well as to pay each lender (i) a commitment fee based on each lender’s commitment and (ii) a fee of approximately 0.50% per annum for any unused borrowings under the Credit Facility on a monthly basis. The Credit Facility contains affirmative and restrictive covenants including, but not limited to, an advance rate limitation of approximately 55% of the applicable balance of net assets held by the Financing Subsidiary, maintenance of minimum net worth, a ratio of total assets to total indebtedness of not less than the greater of 3:2 and the amount so required under the 1940 Act, a key man clause relating to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. James P. Labe, and the Company’s President and Chief Investment Officer, Mr. Sajal K. Srivastava, and eligibility requirements, including but not limited to geographic and industry concentration limitations and certain loan grade classifications. Furthermore, events of default under the Credit Facility include, among other things, (i) a payment default; (ii) a change of control; (iii) bankruptcy; (iv) a covenant default; and, (v) the Company ceases to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility.

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility of $85.8 million and $23.0 million, respectively, which is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The book value of the Credit Facility approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity, cash repayments and market interest rates of the instrument. The fair value of the Credit Facility would be categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy if determined as of the reporting date.

Interest expense on these borrowings includes the interest cost charged on borrowings, the unused fee on the Credit Facility, paying and administrative agent fees, and the amortization of deferred Credit Facility fees and expenses. These expenses are summarized in the table below.

2022 Notes

On July 14, 2017, the Company completed a public offering of $65.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.75% notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) and received net proceeds of approximately $62.8 million after the payment of fees and offering costs. On July 24, 2017, as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their option to purchase additional 2022 Notes, the Company issued an additional $9.75 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes and received net proceeds of approximately $9.5 million after the payment of fees and offering costs. The interest on the 2022 Notes is payable quarterly on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15, beginning October 15, 2017. The 2022 Notes are listed on the NYSE under the symbol “TPVY” and mature on July 15, 2022. The 2022 Notes were issued in integral principal amount multiples (“units”) of $25. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the 2022 Notes to redeem all of the outstanding 6.75% Notes due 2020.

 

29


At June 30, 2019, the 2022 Notes had a market price of $25.69 per unit, resulting in an aggregate fair value of approximately $76.8 million. The 2022 Notes are recorded at amortized cost in the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. Amortized cost includes approximately $1.6 million of deferred issuance cost at June 30, 2019, which is amortized and expensed over the five year term of the 2022 Notes based on an effective yield method.

The following tables provide additional information about the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s liabilities at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Other Payables

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had no U.S. Treasury Bills included in its condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. On December 31, 2018, the Company purchased $20.0 million of U.S. Treasury Bills for settlement on January 4, 2019. The associated payable was included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s unfunded commitments totaled approximately $350.1 million to twenty-five portfolio companies and approximately $294.3 million to twenty portfolio companies, respectively, of which $91.3 million and $87.5 million, respectively, was dependent upon the portfolio companies reaching certain milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to them. As of June 30, 2019, of the approximately $350.1 million of unfunded commitments, approximately $162.7 million will expire in 2019, $157.3 million will expire during 2020, and $30.0 million will expire during 2021, if not drawn prior to expiration.

The Company’s credit agreements contain customary lending provisions that allow it relief from funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying company experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the company. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company.

The tables above also provide the fair value of the Company’s unfunded commitment liability totaling approximately $4.4 million and $2.5 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The fair value at the inception of the delay draw credit agreements is equal to the fees and warrants received to enter into these agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit profile. The unfunded commitment liability reflects the fair value of these future funding commitments and is included in “Other accrued expenses and liabilities” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

These liabilities are considered Level 3 liabilities under ASC Topic 820 as there is no known or accessible market or market indices for these types of financial instruments. Both observable and unobservable inputs were used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level 3 category. The below table provides additional details regarding the Company’s unfunded commitments activity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Note 10. Equity

Since inception through June 30, 2019, the Company has issued 25,087,545 shares of common stock through an initial public offering, a concurrent private placement offering in 2014, a follow-on offering in 2015, a private placement offering in 2017 and a follow-on offering and concurrent private placement offering in 2018. The Company received net proceeds from these offerings of approximately $354.7 million, net of the portion of the underwriting sales load and offering costs paid by the Company.

The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan for its stockholders, which is an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan. Under this plan, if the Company declares a cash distribution to stockholders, the amount of such distribution is automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock unless a stockholder specifically “opts out” of the dividend reinvestment plan. If a stockholder opts out, that stockholder receives cash distributions.

Information on the proceeds raised along with any related underwriting sales load and associated offering expenses, and the price at which common stock was issued by the Company, during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018 is provided in the following table.

Note 11. Distributions

The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to comply with the requirements to continue to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code, beginning with the Company’s taxable year ended December 31, 2014. In order to maintain its ability to be subject to tax as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its net ordinary income and net realized short-term capital gains in excess of its net realized long-term capital losses, if any, to its stockholders. Additionally, to avoid a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on certain of the Company’s undistributed income, the Company must distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of: (a) 98% of the Company’s ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for such calendar year; (b) 98.2% of the amount by which the Company’s capital gains exceed the Company’s capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made by the Company to use its taxable year); and (c) certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax.

For the tax years ended December 31, 2014, 2015, 2017 and 2018, the Company was subject to a 4% U.S. federal excise tax and the Company may be subject to this tax in future years. In such cases, the Company is liable for the tax only on the amount by which the Company does not meet the foregoing distribution requirement. The character of income and gains that the Company distributes 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. The Company incurred a non-deductible U.S. federal excise tax of approximately $155,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The following table summarizes cash distributions per share that have been authorized by the board of directors since the Company’s initial public offering to June 30, 2019. From March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2015, these distributions represent ordinary income as earnings exceeded distributions.

(1)

The amount of this initial distribution reflected a quarterly dividend rate of $0.30 per share, prorated for the 27 days for the period from the pricing of the Company’s initial public offering on March 5, 2014 through March 31, 2014.

(2)

Represents a special distribution.

 

35


It is the Company’s intention to distribute all or substantially all of its taxable income earned over the course of the year; thus, no provision for income tax has been recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. However, the Company may choose not to distribute all of its taxable income for a number of reasons, including retaining excess taxable income for investment purposes and/or defer the payment of distributions associated with the excess taxable income for future calendar years. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, total distributions of $0.36 per share and $0.72 per share, respectively, were declared and paid and represented a distribution of ordinary income as the Company’s earnings and profits for 2018 exceeded its distributions. As of December 31, 2018, the Company estimated it had undistributed 2018 taxable earnings of approximately $4.6 million. This “spillover” income will be paid as part of the 2019 dividends. Since March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to March 31, 2019, total distributions of $7.80 per share have been declared and paid.

Note 12. Subsequent Events

Distributions

On July 25, 2019, the Board declared a $0.36 per share regular quarterly dividend, of which 51.6% represents a spillover dividend as a result of overearning the quarterly dividends in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, payable on September 16, 2019, to stockholders of record on August 30, 2019.

 

Recent Portfolio Activity

From July 1, 2019 through July 31, 2019, the Company funded $11.1 million in new investments and closed $0.6 million of additional debt commitments. TPC’s direct originations platform entered into $130.0 million of additional non-binding signed term sheets with venture growth stage companies, subject to due diligence, definitive documentation and investment committee approval, as well as compliance with TPC’s allocation policy.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and schedules thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as otherwise specified, references to “the Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp. and its subsidiaries.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “may,” “continue,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include statements as to:

 

our future operating results;

 

our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;

 

our relationships with third parties, including venture capital investors;

 

the impact and timing of our unfunded commitments;

 

the expected market for venture capital investments;

 

the performance of our existing portfolio and other investments we may make in the future;

 

the impact of investments that we expect to make;

 

actual and potential conflicts of interest with TriplePoint Capital LLC (“TPC”) and TriplePoint Advisers LLC’s (“Adviser”) and its senior investment team and Investment Committee;

 

our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;

 

the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest;

 

the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

 

our expected financings, use of leverage and investments;

 

the ability of our Adviser to attract, retain and have access to highly talented professionals, including our Adviser’s senior management team;

 

our ability to qualify and maintain our qualification as a RIC and as a BDC;

 

the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; and

 

the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation:

 

an economic downturn could impair our portfolio companies’ ability to continue to operate, which could lead to the loss of some or all of our investments in such portfolio companies;  

 

a contraction of available credit and/or an inability to access the equity markets could impair our lending and investment activities;

 

interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly given that we use leverage as part of our investment strategy;

 

currency fluctuations could adversely affect the results of our investments in foreign companies, particularly to the extent that we receive payments denominated in foreign currency rather than U.S. dollars; and

 

the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify in “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K under Part I, Item 1A.

 

37


Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. Important assumptions include our ability to originate new loans and investments, borrowing costs and levels of profitability and the availability of additional capital. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described in “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K under Part I, Item 1A. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ending December 31, 2014.

Our shares are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “TPVG”. Our 5.75% Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”) are currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol “TPVY”.

We were formed to expand the venture growth stage business segment of TPC’s investment platform. TPC is widely recognized as a leading global financing provider devoted to serving venture capital-backed companies with creative, flexible and customized debt financing, equity capital and complementary services throughout their lifespan. TPC is located on Sand Hill Road in Silicon Valley and has a primary focus in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries.

Our investment objective is to maximize our total return to stockholders primarily in the form of current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by lending primarily with warrants to venture growth stage companies focused in technology, life sciences and other high growth industries that are backed by TPC’s select group of leading venture capital investors.

We commenced investment activities on March 5, 2014. In order to expedite the ramp-up of our investment activities and further our ability to meet our investment objectives, on March 5, 2014, we acquired our initial portfolio. On March 11, 2014, we completed our initial public offering and received $141.6 million of net proceeds in connection with the initial public offering and concurrent private placement, net of the portion of the underwriting sales load and offering costs we paid. In 2015, we completed a follow-on public offering of our common stock raising approximately $95.9 million after offering costs. In October 2017, we sold in a private placement transaction 1,594,007 shares of our common stock to certain investment funds managed by the Alternative Investments & Manager Selection Group of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. and 73,855 shares of our common stock to certain of our executive officers, for total gross proceeds of approximately $22.6 million. In August 2018, we completed a public offering and a concurrent private placement offering of an aggregate 6,925,000 shares of our common stock, raising approximately $94.6 million after offering costs.

Borrowings

In February 2014, we entered into a credit agreement with Deutsche Bank AG acting as administrative agent and a lender, and KeyBank National Association, Everbank Commercial Lender Finance, Inc., and AloStar Bank of Commerce, as other lenders, which provided us with a $150.0 million commitment, subject to borrowing base requirements (as amended and restated from time to time, the “Credit Facility”). In August 2014, we amended the Credit Facility to increase the total commitments to $200.0 million in aggregate.

In January 2018 we amended and renewed the Credit Facility. MUFG Union Bank, N.A., replaced AloStar Bank of Commerce as a lender, under the amended Credit Facility. The amendment and renewal, among other things, increased the total commitment to $210.0 million in aggregate, extended the revolving period from February 21, 2018 to February 21, 2020, and extended the maturity date from February 21, 2019 to August 21, 2021.

In May 2019 we amended and renewed the Credit Facility. The amendment and renewal, among other things, increased the total commitment to $265.0 million in aggregate, added an accordion feature that allows us to increase the size of the Credit Facility to up to $400 million, extended the revolving period from February 21, 2020 to May 31, 2021, and extended the maturity date from August 21, 2021 to November 31, 2022. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to various covenants and the leverage restrictions contained in the 1940 Act. See “Note 6. Borrowings” in the notes to consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the terms of the Credit Facility.

On July 14, 2017, we completed a public offering of $65.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our newly issued 2022 Notes and received net proceeds of approximately $62.8 million, after the payment of fees and offering costs. On July 24, 2017, as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their option to purchase additional 2022 Notes, we issued an additional $9.75 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes and received net proceeds of approximately $9.5 million, after the payment of fees and offering costs. The interest on the 2022 Notes is payable quarterly on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15, beginning October 15, 2017. See “Note 6. Borrowings” in the notes to consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the 2022 Notes.

Asset Coverage Requirements

On June 21, 2018, our stockholders voted at a special meeting of stockholders to approve a proposal to authorize us to be subject to a reduced asset coverage ratio of at least 150% under the 1940 Act. As a result of the stockholder approval at the special meeting, effective June 22, 2018, our applicable minimum asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act has been decreased to 150% from 200%. Thus, we are permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of debt and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 150% immediately after each such issuance. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 320%.

Portfolio Composition, Investment Activity and Asset Quality

Portfolio Composition

We originate and invest primarily in venture growth stage companies. Companies at the venture growth stage have distinct characteristics differentiating them from venture capital-backed companies at other stages in their development lifecycle. We invest primarily in (i) growth capital loans that have a secured collateral position and that are generally used by venture growth stage companies to finance their continued expansion and growth, (ii) equipment financings, which may be structured as loans or leases, that have a secured collateral position on specified mission-critical equipment, (iii) on a select basis, revolving loans that have a secured collateral position and that are typically used by venture growth stage companies to advance against inventory, components, accounts receivable, contractual or future billings, bookings, revenues, sales or cash payments and collections including proceeds from a sale, financing or the equivalent and (iv) direct equity investments in venture growth stage companies. In connection with our growth capital loans, equipment financings and revolving loans, we generally receive warrant investments that allow us to participate in any equity appreciation of our borrowers and enhance our overall investment returns.

As of June 30, 2019, we held 166 investments in 65 companies. Our investments included 92 debt investments, 54 warrant investments, and 20 direct equity and related investments. As of June 30, 2019, the total cost and fair value of these investments were approximately $482.4 million and approximately $496.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, the 92 debt investments with an aggregate fair value of approximately $444.7 million had a weighted average loan to enterprise value ratio at the time of underwriting of approximately 10.9%. Enterprise value of a portfolio company is estimated based on information available, including any information regarding the most recent rounds of equity funding, at the time of origination.

As of December 31, 2018, we had 144 investments in 57 companies. Our investments included 82 debt investments, 48 warrant investments, and 14 direct equity and related investments. As of December 31, 2018, the total cost and fair value of these investments were approximately $435.1 million and approximately $433.4 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, one of our portfolio companies was publicly traded. As of December 31, 2018, the 82 debt investments had an aggregate fair value of approximately $405.3 million and a weighted average loan to enterprise value ratio at the time of underwriting of approximately 8.9%. Enterprise value of a portfolio company is estimated based on information available, including any information regarding the most recent rounds of equity funding, at the time of origination.

The following tables provide information on the cost and fair value of our investments in companies along with the number of companies in our portfolio as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Our credit agreements with our portfolio companies contain customary lending provisions that allow us relief from funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying company experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the company. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn upon, unfunded commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. We generally expect 50% - 75% of our gross unfunded commitments to eventually be drawn before the expiration of their corresponding availability periods.

The fair value at the inception of the delay draw credit agreements with our portfolio companies is equal to the fees and/or warrant investments received to enter into these agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit profile. The unfunded commitment liability reflects the fair value of these future funding commitments. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value for these unfunded commitments totaled approximately $4.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively, and was included in “other accrued expenses and liabilities” in our condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Our level of investment activity can vary substantially from period to period as our Adviser chooses to slow or accelerate new business originations depending on market conditions, rate of investment of TPC’s select group of leading venture capital investors, our Adviser’s knowledge, expertise and experience, our funding capacity (including availability under the Credit Facility and our ability or inability to raise equity or debt capital), and other market dynamics.

* Includes backlog of potential future commitments.

We may enter into commitments with certain portfolio companies that permit an increase in the commitment amount in the future in the event that conditions to such increases are met (“backlog of potential future commitments”).  If such conditions to increase are met, these amounts may become unfunded commitments if not drawn prior to expiration. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, this backlog of potential future commitments totaled $5.5 million and $25.0 million, respectively.

Payables

On December 31, 2018, we acquired $20.0 million in face value of U.S. Treasury Bills which were sold on January 3, 2019. The Company purchased and sold U.S. Treasury Bills in order to efficiently meet certain RIC diversification tests. 

Asset Quality

Consistent with TPC’s existing policies, our Adviser maintains a credit watch list which places borrowers into five risk categories based on our Adviser’s senior investment team’s judgment, where 1 is the highest rating and all new loans are generally assigned a rating of 2.

Results of Operations

Comparison of operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018.

An important measure of our financial performance is net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net unrealized gains (losses). Net investment income (loss) is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating expenses including interest on borrowed funds. Net realized gains (losses) on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net unrealized gains (losses) on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $23.9 million, which was comprised of approximately $10.1 million of net investment income and approximately $13.7 million of net realized and unrealized gains. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $8.4 million, which was comprised of approximately $8.8 million of net investment income and approximately $(0.4) million of net realized and unrealized losses. On a per share basis for the three months ended June 30, 2019, net investment income was $0.41 per share and the net increase in net assets from operations was $0.96 per share, as compared to $0.50 per share and $0.47 per share, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $34.9 million, which was comprised of approximately $20.0 million of net investment income and approximately $14.9 million of net realized and unrealized gains. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $16.3 million, which was comprised of approximately $14.7 million of net investment income and approximately $1.6 million of net realized and unrealized gains. On a per share basis for the six months ended June 30, 2019, net investment income was $0.81 per share and the net increase in net assets from operations was $1.41 per share, as compared to $0.83 per share and $0.92 per share, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Investment Income

Total investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $18.9 million as compared to approximately $16.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Total investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $36.4 million as compared to approximately $29.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

44


The increase in investment and other income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the comparable period of 2018 was $2.4 million and primarily due to an increase in interest income due to a higher average portfolio balance between periods. The increase in investment and other income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the comparable period of 2018 was $7.3 million and primarily due to an increase in prepayments and other income as well as an increase in interest income due to a higher average portfolio balance between periods.

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized approximately $1.0 million in other income consisting of approximately $0.1 million due to the termination or expiration of unfunded commitments and approximately $0.9 million from the realization of certain fees paid by portfolio companies and other income. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized approximately $1.1 million in other income consisting of approximately $0.3 million due to the termination or expiration of unfunded commitments and approximately $0.8 million from the realization of certain fees paid by portfolio companies and other income.

For the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized approximately $1.4 million in other income consisting of approximately $0.3 million due to the termination or expiration of unfunded commitments and approximately $1.1 million from the realization of certain fees paid by portfolio companies and other income. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized approximately $1.1 million in other income consisting of approximately $0.3 million due to the termination or expiration of unfunded commitments and approximately $0.8 million from the realization of certain fees paid by portfolio companies and other income.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses consist of base management fee, income incentive fee, capital gains incentive fee, interest expense and amortization of fees, administration agreement expenses, and general and administrative expenses and is summarized in the statement of operations. In determining the base management fee, our Adviser has agreed to exclude the U.S. Treasury Bill assets acquired at the end of the applicable quarters in 2019 and 2018 in the calculation of the gross assets. We anticipate operating expenses will increase over time as our portfolio continues to grow. However, we anticipate operating expenses, as a percentage of totals assets and net assets, will generally decrease over time as our portfolio and capital base expand. We expect base management and income incentive fees will increase as we grow our asset base and our earnings. The capital gains incentive fee will depend on realized and unrealized gains and losses. Interest expenses will generally increase as we utilize more of the Credit Facility, and we generally expect expenses under the administration agreement and general and administrative expenses to increase over time to meet the additional requirements associated with servicing a larger portfolio.

Total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $8.8 million as compared to approximately $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $16.4 million as compared to approximately $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Base management fees totaled approximately $2.1 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and approximately $3.8 million and $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Base management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the comparable periods for 2018, increased due to higher average assets between the periods.

Income incentive fees totaled approximately $2.5 million and $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and approximately $5.0 million and $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in income based fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 from the comparable periods in 2018 was primarily due to higher income on our investment portfolio driven by higher portfolio balances and the recognition of greater fees from prepayment activity between periods.

There was no capital gains incentive fee expense calculated for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

Interest and fees on our borrowings totaled approximately $3.0 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and approximately $5.2 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Interest and fee expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the comparable periods in 2018, increased primarily due to a higher weighted average outstanding principal balance on borrowings.

Administration agreement and general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and approximately $2.3 million and $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Administration agreement and general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the comparable periods for 2018, remained relatively flat due to lower professional services costs offset by higher administrative expenses.

Net Realized Gains and Losses and Net Unrealized Gains and Losses

Realized gains and losses are included as a component of net realized gains (losses) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

45


During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized net realized losses on investments of approximately $(17) thousand, as a result of changes in foreign currency between the time of investment and liquidation. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized net realized gains on investments of approximately $0.8 million, consisting of gross realized gains of $1.8 million, of which $1.1 million related to the sale of equity in one portfolio company and $0.7 million from warrant investments related to the acquisition of one portfolio company, offset by gross realized losses of $(1.0) million from warrant and equity investments related to the acquisition of one portfolio company.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized net realized losses on investments of $(46) thousand, as a result of changes in foreign currency between the time of investment and liquidation. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized net realized gains on investments of approximately $0.8 million, consisting of gross realized gains of $1.8 million, of which $1.1 million related to the sale of equity in one portfolio company and $0.7 million from warrant investments related to the acquisition of one portfolio company, offset by gross realized losses of $(1.0) million from warrant and equity investments related to the acquisition of one portfolio company.

Unrealized gains and losses are included in net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. 

Net change in unrealized appreciation during the three months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $13.8 million, which primarily consisted of $14.0 million of net unrealized appreciation on the investment portfolio related to mark-to-market activity primarily related to appreciation in our investment in CrowdStrike, Inc. following its initial public offering, offset by net unrealized depreciation of $0.3 million as a result of changes in funds held in foreign currency for investment and a decline in the price of our equity in FarFetch UK Limited, a publicly traded company. Net change in unrealized depreciation during the three months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately $(1.2) million, which primarily consisted of the reversal and recognition of previously recorded net unrealized appreciation of $2.9 million into income or realized gains due to the disposition of three portfolio companies, offset by $1.7 million of net unrealized appreciation on the investment portfolio related to mark-to-market activity.

Net change in unrealized appreciation during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately $14.9 million, which primarily consisted of $17.1 million of net unrealized appreciation on the investment portfolio related to mark-to-market activity primarily related to appreciation in our investment in CrowdStrike, Inc. following its initial public offering as well as in FarFetch UK Limited, a publicly traded company, offset by the reversal and recognition of previously recorded net unrealized appreciation of $1.9 million into income or realized gains due to the disposition of five portfolio companies and net unrealized depreciation of $0.3 million as a result of changes in funds held in foreign currency for investment. Net change in unrealized appreciation during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately $0.8 million, which primarily consisted of the reversal and recognition of previously recorded net unrealized appreciation of $0.9 million into income or realized gains due to the disposition of three portfolio companies, offset by $1.7 million of net unrealized appreciation on the investment portfolio related to mark-to-market activity.

Net change in realized and unrealized gains or losses in subsequent periods may be volatile as it depends on changes in the market, changes in the underlying performance of our portfolio companies and their respective industries, and other market factors.

Portfolio Yield and Total Return

Investment income includes interest income on our debt investments utilizing the effective yield method including cash interest income as well as the amortization of any purchase premium, accretion of purchase discount, original issue discount, facilities fees, and the amortization and payment of the end-of-term (“EOT”) payments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, interest income totaled approximately $17.9 million and $35.0 million, respectively, representing a weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments for the period held of approximately 16.5% and 16.4%, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, interest income totaled approximately $15.4 million and $28.0 million, respectively, representing a weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments for the period held of approximately 17.2% and 15.6%, respectively.

We calculate weighted average annualized portfolio yields for periods shown as the annualized rates of the interest income recognized during the period divided by the average amortized cost of debt investments in the portfolio at the beginning of each month in the period. The weighted average yields reported for these periods are annualized and reflect the weighted average yields to maturities. Should the portfolio companies choose to repay their loans earlier, our weighted average yields will increase for those debt investments affected but may reduce our weighted average yields on the remaining portfolio in future quarters.

The yield on our portfolio, excluding the impact of prepayments, was approximately 13.7% for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The yield on our portfolio, excluding the impact of prepayments, was approximately 13.9% and 13.8%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

The following table provides the weighted average annualized portfolio yield on our portfolio comprising of cash interest income, accretion of the net purchase discount, facilities fees and the value of warrants received, accretion of EOT payments and the accelerated receipt of EOT payments on prepayments.

(1)

The yields for periods shown are the annualized rates of interest income or the components of interest income recognized during the period divided by the average amortized cost of debt investments in the portfolio at the beginning of each month in the period.

 

(2)

The weighted average portfolio yields on debt investments reflected above do not represent actual investment returns to our stockholders.

Our weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments may be higher than an investor’s yield on an investment in shares of our common stock. Our weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments does not reflect operating expenses that may be incurred by us. In addition, our weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments and total return figures disclosed above do not consider the effect of any sales commissions or charges that may be incurred in connection with the sale of shares of our common stock. Our weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments and total return based on NAV do not represent actual investment returns to stockholders. Our weighted average annualized portfolio yield on debt investments and total return figures are subject to change and, in the future, may be greater or less than the rates set forth above. Total return based on NAV is the change in ending NAV per share plus distributions per share paid during the period assuming participation in the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan divided by the beginning NAV per share. Total return based on stock price is the change in the ending stock price of the Company’s common stock plus distributions paid during the period assuming participation in the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan divided by the beginning stock price of the Company’s common stock. The total return is for the period shown and is not annualized.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, our total return per period based on the change in NAV plus distributions reinvested as of the distribution date per share was 10.2% and 10.9%, respectively, and our total return per period based on the change in stock price plus distributions reinvested as of the distribution date was 9.1% and 37.9%, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, our total return per period based on the change in NAV plus distributions reinvested as of the distribution date per share was 7.1% and 7.8%, respectively, and our total return per period based on the change in stock price plus distributions reinvested as of the distribution date was 10.5% and 4.1%, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Valuation of investments, income recognition, realized / unrealized gains or losses and U.S. federal income taxes are considered to be our critical accounting policies and estimates. These have been disclosed under “Critical Accounting Polices” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 6, 2019 and under “Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to consolidated financial statements included therein. Changes to the policies are disclosed in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, cash used in operating activities, consisting primarily of purchases, sales and repayments of investments and the items described in “Results of Operations,” was approximately $30.4 million and cash provided by financing activities was approximately $44.8 million due to borrowings under the Credit Facility of $62.8 million offset by approximately $16.8 million in distributions paid and costs incurred in connection with the amendment and renewal of the Credit Facility in May 2019, which are deferred and expensed over the term of the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2019, cash, including restricted cash, was approximately $24.4 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, cash used in operating activities, consisting primarily of purchases, sales and repayments of investments and the items described in “Results of Operations,” was approximately $5.5 million and cash provided by financing activities was approximately $6.4 million due to borrowings under the Credit Facility for $20.0 million, partially offset by approximately $12.3 million in distributions paid and approximately $1.3 million of Credit Facility costs payments, which are deferred and expensed over the term of the Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2018, cash, including restricted cash, was approximately $10.9 million.

Capital Resources

We have $265.0 million in total commitments available under the Credit Facility, subject to various covenants and borrowing base requirements. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature, which allows us to increase the size of the Credit Facility to up to $400 million. The revolving period under the Credit Facility expires on May 31, 2021 and the maturity date of the Credit Facility is November 31, 2022. See “Note 6. Borrowings” in the notes to consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the terms of the Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had outstanding borrowings of $85.8 million and $23.0 million, respectively, under our Credit Facility, which is included in the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. We had $179.2 million and $187.0 million of remaining capacity on our Credit Facility as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

On July 14, 2017, we completed a public offering of $65.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our newly issued 2022 Notes and received net proceeds of approximately $62.8 million after the payment of fees and offering costs. On July 24, 2017, as a result of the underwriters’ full exercise of their option to purchase additional 2022 Notes, we issued an additional $9.75 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes and received net proceeds of approximately $9.5 million after the payment of fees and offering costs. The interest on the 2022 Notes is payable quarterly on January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15, beginning October 15, 2017. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we have recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of assets and liabilities our liability for the 2022 Notes, net of deferred issuance costs, of $73.2 million and $72.9 million, respectively. See “Note 6. Borrowings” in the notes to consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the 2022 Notes.

As a BDC, we generally have an ongoing need to raise additional capital for investment purposes. As a result, we expect, from time to time, to access the debt and equity markets when we believe it is necessary and appropriate to do so. In this regard, we continue to explore various options for obtaining additional debt or equity capital for investments. This may include expanding or extending the Credit Facility, or the issuance of additional shares of our common stock or debt securities. If we are unable to obtain leverage or raise equity capital on terms that are acceptable to us, our ability to grow our portfolio could be substantially impacted.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Commitments

We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of approximately, $350.1 million and $294.3 million, respectively, of unfunded commitments, of which $91.3 million and $87.5 million, respectively, was dependent upon the portfolio companies reaching certain milestones before the debt commitment becomes available to them. Our credit agreements with our portfolio companies contain customary lending provisions that allow us relief from funding obligations for previously made commitments in instances where the underlying portfolio company experiences materially adverse events that affect the financial condition or business outlook for the portfolio company.

Distributions

We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2014. To obtain and maintain RIC tax treatment, we must distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and net realized short-term capital gains in excess of our net realized long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders. In order to avoid a non-deductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on certain of our undistributed income, we would need to distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of: (a) 98% of our ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for such calendar year; (b) 98.2% of the amount by which our capital gains exceed our capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for a one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year (unless an election is made by us to use our taxable year); and (c) certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax. For the tax years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018, we were subject to a 4% U.S. federal excise tax and we may be subject to this tax in future years. In such cases, we will be liable for the tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the foregoing distribution requirement.

To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for the year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our stockholders. Our Adviser monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a return of capital may occur for the year. The tax character of distributions will be determined at the end of the taxable year. Stockholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a dividend payment carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our taxable ordinary income or capital gains. The specific tax characteristics of our distributions will be reported to stockholders after the end of the taxable year.

The following table summarizes our cash distributions per share that have been authorized by our board of directors since our initial public offering to June 30, 2019. From March 5, 2014 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2015, these distributions represent ordinary income as our earnings exceed distributions. Approximately $1.20 per share of the distributions during the year ended December 31, 2016 represent a return of capital.

The amount of this initial distribution reflected a quarterly dividend rate of $0.30 per share, prorated for the 27 days for the period from the pricing of the Company’s initial public offering on March 5, 2014 through March 31, 2014.

(2)

Represents a special distribution.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2018, distributions paid were comprised of interest-sourced distributions (qualified interest income) in amounts equal to 100.0% of total distributions paid, respectively.

Recent Developments

Dividends

On July 25, 2019, our Board declared a $0.36 per share regular quarterly dividend, of which 51.6% represents a spillover dividend as a result of overearning the quarterly dividends in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, payable on September 16, 2019 to stockholders of record on August 30, 2019.

Recent Portfolio Activity

From July 1, 2019 through July 31, 2019, we closed $0.6 million of additional debt commitments and funded $11.1 million in new investments. TPC’s direct originations platform entered into $130.0 million of additional non-binding signed term sheets with venture growth stage companies, subject to due diligence, definitive documentation and investment committee approval, as well as compliance with TPC’s allocation policy.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings and in the relative values of our portfolio that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. 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 change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

Changes in interest rates may affect both our cost of funding and our interest income from portfolio investments. Our risk management systems and procedures are designed to identify and analyze our risk, to set appropriate policies and limits and to continually monitor these risks. Our investment income will be affected by changes in various interest rates, including LIBOR and prime rates, to the extent that any debt investments include floating interest rates. Debt investments are made with either floating rates that are subject to contractual minimum interest rates for the term of the investment or fixed interest rates.

As of June 30, 2019, a majority of the debt investments (approximately 69.9% and approximately $316.7 million in principal balance) in our debt investment portfolio bore interest at floating rates, all of which have interest rate floors and some of them have interest rate caps for a limited period. Almost all of our unfunded commitments float with changes in the prime rate from the date we enter into the commitment to the date of the actual draw. In addition, our interest expense will be affected by changes in the published LIBOR rate in connection with our Credit Facility; however, our 2022 Notes bears interest at a fixed rate. As of June 30, 2019, our floating rate borrowings totaled $85.8 million, which comprised only 53.9% of our outstanding debt, so an increase in interest rates would generally benefit us as we would expect to generate additional interest income in excess of the additional interest expense;  however, a decrease in interest rates would generally decrease our net investment income because our interest income would decrease, while the interest expenses associated with the portion of our borrowings represented by the 2022 Notes would generally remain the same. This is illustrated in the following table which shows the annual impact on net income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure from the June 30, 2019 condensed consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.

This analysis is indicative of the potential impact on our investment income as of June 30, 2019, assuming an immediate and sustained change in interest rates as noted. It should be noted that we anticipate growth in our portfolio funded in part with additional borrowings and such additional borrowings, all else being equal, will increase our investment income sensitivity to interest rates, and such changes could be material. In addition, this analysis does not adjust for potential changes in our portfolio or our borrowing facilities nor does it take into account any changes in the credit performance of our loans that might occur should interest rates change.

Since it is our intention to hold loans to maturity, the fluctuating relative value of these loans that may occur due to changes in interest rate may have an impact on unrealized gains and losses during quarterly reporting periods. Based on our assessment of the interest rate risk, as of June 30, 2019, we had no hedging transactions in place as we deemed the risk acceptable and we did not believe it was necessary to mitigate this risk at that time.

While hedging activities may mitigate our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates, certain hedging transactions that we may enter into in the future, such as interest rate swap agreements, may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio investments. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively hedge our interest rate risk.

Substantially all of our assets and liabilities are financial in nature. As a result, changes in interest rates and other factors drive our performance more directly than does inflation. Changes in interest rates do not necessarily correlate with inflation rates or changes in inflation rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)

        Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

 

As of June 30, 2019 (the end of the period covered by this report), we, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Interim 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 Interim 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.

 

(b)Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

Management has not identified any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
