Management Commentary
“We are pleased to announce a dividend increase for the first quarter of 2023,” said Bilal Rashid, OFS Capital’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our fourth quarter NII of $0.35 per share was solid due to strong growth in interest income, as our portfolio continues to benefit from the current rising rate environment. We believe our balance sheet is well positioned as 94% of our loans are floating rate and 69% of our debt is fixed rate as of December 31, 2022.”
(1) |
On a supplemental basis, we disclose Adjusted NII (including on a per share basis), which is a financial measure calculated and presented on basis other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“GAAP”). Adjusted NII represents net investment income, excluding the capital gains incentive fee, in periods in which such expense occurs. GAAP requires recognition of a capital gains incentive fee in our financial statements when aggregate net realized and unrealized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis is positive from the date of the election to be a BDC through the reporting date. Such fees are subject to further conditions specified in the investment advisory agreement with OFS Capital Management, LLC, principally related to the realization of such net gains, before OFS Capital Management, LLC is entitled to payment, and such recognized fees are subject to the risk of reversal should unrealized gains diminish to become losses. Management believes that Adjusted NII is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any net capital gains incentive fee, as net investment income does not include the net gains, realized or unrealized, associated with the capital gains incentive fee. |
|
|
Management believes Adjusted NII facilitates the analysis of our results of operations and provides greater transparency into the determination of incentive fees. Adjusted NII is not meant as a substitute for net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in the context of the entirety of our reported results of operations, financial position and cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted NII is set forth in Schedule I to this press release. |

Income yield is calculated as (a) the actual amount earned on performing investments, including interest and prepayment fees and amortization of net loan fees, divided by (b) the weighted-average of total performing investments amortized cost. |

Investment Income
For the quarter ended December 31, 2022, total investment income increased by $0.6 million as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to an increase in interest income of $1.0 million as a result of rising interest rates, and partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in fee income.
Expenses
For the quarter ended December 31, 2022, total expenses increased $0.3 million primarily due to an increase in interest expense related to rising SOFR rates on our BNP Facility.
Net Loss on Investments
For the quarter ended December 31, 2022, net loss on investments of $2.3 million was primarily due to unrealized depreciation on a few issuer specific portfolio companies as well as broader market related declines in CLO equity securities and liquid debt securities. These declines were partially offset by unrealized appreciation on a few specific portfolio company investments.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2022, we had $14.9 million of cash, which includes $12.3 million held in the aggregate by our wholly owned small business investment company, OFS SBIC I, LP (“SBIC I LP”), and OFSCC-FS, LLC (“OFSCC-FS”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary. Our use of cash held by SBIC I LP and OFSCC-FS is restricted by regulatory and contractual conditions, including limitations on the amount of cash SBIC I LP and OFSCC-FS can distribute to us.
As of December 31, 2022, we had an unused commitment of $25.0 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility with Pacific Western Bank (the “PWB Credit Facility”), as well as an unused commitment of $45.3 million under the revolving credit facility with BNP Paribas, both of which are subject to borrowing base requirements and other covenants. Based on fair values and equity capital at December 31, 2022, we could access all unused commitments under our credit facilities and remain in compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirement.
On December 15, 2022, we amended the PWB Credit Facility to: (i) reduce the maximum amount available under the PWB Credit Facility from $35.0 million to $25.0 million; and (ii) eliminate the No Net Losses covenant, which restricted net losses (defined as income after adjustments to the investment portfolio for gains and losses, realized and unrealized, also shown as net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations) in more than two quarters during the prior four quarters then ended.

Schedule 1
Non-GAAP Financial Measure – Adjusted Net Investment Income
On a supplemental basis, we disclose Adjusted NII (including on a per share basis), which is a financial measure calculated and presented on basis other than in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted NII represents net investment income, excluding the capital gains incentive fee, in periods in which such expense occurs. GAAP requires recognition of a capital gains incentive fee in our financial statements when aggregate net realized and unrealized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis is positive from the date of the election to be a BDC through the reporting date. Such fees are subject to further conditions specified in the investment advisory agreement with OFS Capital Management, LLC, principally related to the realization of such net gains, before OFS Capital Management, LLC is entitled to payment, and such recognized fees are subject to the risk of reversal should unrealized gains diminish to become losses. Management believes that Adjusted NII is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any net capital gains incentive fee, as net investment income does not include the net gains, realized or unrealized, associated with the capital gains incentive fee.
Management believes Adjusted NII facilitates the analysis of our results of operations and provides greater transparency into the determination of incentive fees. Adjusted NII is not meant as a substitute for net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in the context of the entirety of our reported results of operations, financial position and cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP.
The following table provides a reconciliation from net investment income (the most comparable GAAP measure) to Adjusted NII for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively, and the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data) (unaudited):
