SLR INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
June 30, 2022
(in thousands, except share amounts)
Note 1. Organization
Solar Capital LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, was formed in February 2007 and commenced operations on
March 13, 2007
with initial capital of $
1,200,000
of which
47.04
% was funded by affiliated parties.
Immediately prior to our initial public offering, through a series of transactions, SLR Investment Corp. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), merged with Solar Capital LLC, leaving SLR Investment Corp. as the surviving entity (the
26.65
million shares of common stock and $
125,000
in senior unsecured notes to the existing Solar Capital LLC unit holders in connection with the
“Pre-IPO
Merger”). SLR Investment Corp. issued an aggregate of approximately
Pre-IPO
Merger. SLR Investment Corp. had no assets or operations prior to completion of the
Pre-IPO
Merger and as a result, the historical books and records of Solar Capital LLC have become the books and records of the surviving entity. The number of shares used to calculate weighted average shares for use in computations on a per share basis have been decreased retroactively by a factor of approximately 0.4022 for all periods prior to February 9, 2010. This factor represents the effective impact of the reduction in shares resulting from the
Pre-IPO
Merger.
SLR Investment Corp., a Maryland corporation formed in November 2007, is a
closed-end,
externally managed,
non-diversified
management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Furthermore, as the Company is an investment company, it continues to apply the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, 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”).
On February 9, 2010, the Company priced its initial public offering, selling
5.68
million shares of common stock, including the underwriters’ over-allotment, at a price of $
18.50
per share. Concurrent with this offering, the Company’s senior management purchased an additional
600,000
shares through a private placement, also at $
18.50
per share.
The Company’s investment objective is to maximize both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. The Company directly and indirectly invests primarily in leveraged middle market companies in the form of senior secured loans, financing leases and to a lesser extent, unsecured loans and equity securities. From time to time, we may also invest in public companies that are thinly traded.
On December 1, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), with SLR Senior Investment Corp., a Maryland corporation (“SUNS”), Solstice Merger Sub, Inc., a Maryland corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), and, solely for the limited purposes set forth therein, SLR Capital Partners, LLC (the “Investment Adviser”). The Merger Agreement provided that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SUNS, with SUNS continuing as the surviving company and as SUNS’s wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger,”) and, immediately thereafter, SUNS will merge with and into us, with us continuing as the surviving company (together with the Merger, the “Mergers”). The Mergers closed on April 1, 2022. See Note 16 for additional information.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and include the accounts of the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the operations and financial condition for the periods presented. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts may have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form
10-Q
and Regulation
S-X,
as appropriate. Accordingly, they may not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual consolidated financial statements. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2022.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements, have been included.

SLR INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)(continued)
June 30, 2022
(in thousands, except share amounts)
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Company are:
| (a) |
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date;
|
| (b) |
Under procedures established by the board of directors (the “Board”), we value investments, including certain senior secured debt, subordinated debt and other debt securities with maturities greater than
mid-market
pricing as a practical expedient for fair value unless a different point within the range is more representative. If and when market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, we may utilize independent third-party valuation firms to assist us in determining the fair value of material assets. Accordingly, such investments go through our multi-step valuation process as described below. In each such case, independent valuation firms consider observable market inputs together with significant unobservable inputs in arriving at their valuation recommendations. Debt investments with maturities of
|
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, the Board has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
| (1) |
our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for the portfolio investment;
|
| (2) |
preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management of the Investment Adviser;
|
| (3) |
independent valuation firms engaged by the Board conduct independent appraisals and review the Investment Adviser’s preliminary valuations and make their own independent assessment for all material assets;
|
| (4) |
the audit committee of the Board reviews the preliminary valuation of the Investment Adviser and that of the independent valuation firm and responds to the valuation recommendation of the independent valuation firm, if any, to reflect any comments; and
|
| (5) |
the Board discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firm, if any, and the audit committee.
|
Investments in all asset classes are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. However, in accordance with ASC
820-10,
certain investments that qualify as investment companies in accordance with ASC 946, may be valued using net asset value as a practical expedient for fair value. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation approaches to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, our principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values, among other factors. When available, broker quotations and/or quotations provided by pricing services are considered as an input in the valuation process. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, there has been no change to the Company’s valuation approaches or techniques and the nature of the related inputs considered in the valuation process.
18
SLR INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)(continued)
June 30, 2022
(in thousands, except share amounts)
ASC Topic 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:
Level
1
: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by the Company at the measurement date.
Level
2
: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.
Level
3
: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The exercise of judgment is based in part on our knowledge of the asset class and our prior experience.
| (c) |
Gains or losses on investments are calculated by using the specific identification method.
|
| (d) |
The Company records dividend income and interest, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis. Loan origination fees, original issue discount, and market discounts are capitalized and we amortize such amounts into income using the effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan, any unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income. We record call premiums received on loans repaid as interest income when we receive such amounts. Capital structuring fees, amendment fees, consent fees, and any other
non-recurring
fee income as well as management fee and other fee income for services rendered, if any, are recorded as other income when earned.
|
| (e) |
The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Code pertaining to regulated investment companies to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it of substantially all U.S. federal income taxes. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a
|
| (f) |
Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are typically reclassified among the Company’s capital accounts annually. In addition, the character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP.
|
| (g) |
Distributions to common stockholders are recorded as of the record date. The amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Board. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed or deemed distributed at least annually.
|
| (h) |
In accordance with Regulation
S-X
and ASC Topic 810—
Consolidation
|
| (i) |
The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. The Company will not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations would be included with the net unrealized gain or loss from investments. The Company’s investments in foreign securities, if any, may involve certain risks, including without limitation: foreign exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic risks, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the investment. In addition, changes in the relationship of foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of these investments in terms of U.S. dollars and therefore the earnings of the Company.
|
| (j) |
In accordance with ASC
835-30,
the Company reports origination and other expenses related to certain debt issuances as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. Applicable expenses are deferred and amortized using either the effective interest method or the straight-line method over the stated life. The straight-line method may be used on revolving facilities and/or when it approximates the effective yield method.
|
19
SLR INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)(continued)

(in thousands, except share amounts)
| (k) |
The Company may enter into forward exchange contracts in order to hedge against foreign currency risk. These contracts are
marked-to-market
|
| (l) |
The Company records expenses related to shelf registration statements and applicable equity offering costs as prepaid assets. These expenses are typically charged as a reduction of capital upon the sale of shares or expensed, in accordance with ASC
946-20-25.
|
| (m) |
Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest in cash are generally placed on
non-accrual
status when principal or interest cash payments are past due
non-accrual
investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest are paid in cash, and in management’s judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining principal and interest obligations. Cash interest payments received on such investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending on management’s judgment.
|
| (n) |
The Company defines cash equivalents as securities that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only securities with a maturity of three months or less would qualify, with limited exceptions. The Company believes that certain U.S. Treasury bills, repurchase agreements and other high-quality, short-term debt securities would qualify as cash equivalents.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
No. 2020-04,
“Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. ASU
2020-04
is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has determined that the adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Note 3. Agreements
The Company has an investment advisory and management agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser, under which the Investment Adviser will manage the
operations of, and provide investment advisory services to the Company. For providing these services, the Investment Adviser receives a fee from the Company, consisting of two components—a base management fee and a performance-based incentive fee. The base management fee is determined by taking the average value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters calculated at an annual rate of
1.50
% on gross assets up to
200
% of the Company’s total net assets as of the immediately preceding quarter end and
1.00
% on gross assets that exceed
200
% of the Company’s total net assets as of the immediately preceding quarter end. For purposes of computing the base management fee, gross assets exclude temporary assets acquired at the end of each fiscal quarter for purposes of preserving investment flexibility in the next fiscal quarter. Temporary assets include, but are not limited to, U.S. treasury bills, other short-term U.S. government or government agency securities, repurchase agreements or cash borrowings.
day-to-day
The performance-based incentive fee has two parts, as follows: one part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s
1.75
% per quarter (
7
% annualized). The Company pays the Investment Adviser a performance-based incentive fee with respect to the Company’s
100
% of the Company’s
20
% of the amount of the Company’s
pre-incentive
fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose,
pre-incentive
fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, any expenses payable under the Administration Agreement, and any interest expense and distributions paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the performance-based incentive fee).
Pre-incentive
fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains or losses, or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.
Pre-incentive
fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to the hurdle rate of
pre-incentive
fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows: (1) no performance-based incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which the Company’s
pre-incentive
fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate; (2)
pre-incentive
fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such
pre-incentive
fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter; and (3)
pre-incentive
fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter. These calculations are appropriately
pro-rated
for any period of less than three months.
The second part of the performance-based incentive fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and will equal
20
% of the Company’s cumulative realized capital gains less cumulative realized capital losses, unrealized capital depreciation (unrealized depreciation on a gross
basis at the end of each calendar year) and all net capital gains upon which prior performance-based capital gains incentive fee payments were previously made to the Investment Adviser. For financial statement purposes, the second part of the performance-based incentive fee is accrued based upon
20
% of cumulative net realized gains and net unrealized capital appreciation. No accrual was required for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
investment-by-investment
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $
6,913
and $
14,129
, respectively, in base management fees and $
4,734
and $
4,734
, respectively, in gross performance-based incentive fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, $
1,358
and $
1,358
of such performance-based incentive fees were waived. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $
6,890
and $
13,700
, respectively, in base management fees and $
3,879
and $
7,746
, respectively, in performance-based incentive fees. The Investment Adviser has agreed to waive incentive fees resulting from income earned due to the accretion of purchase discount allocated to investments acquired as a result of the Merger. Fees waived pursuant to the above are not subject to recoupment by the Investment Adviser.
The Company has also entered into an Administration Agreement with SLR Capital Management, LLC (the “Administrator”) under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Company. For providing these services, facilities and personnel, the Company reimburses the Administrator for the Company’s allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent. The Administrator will also provide, on the Company’s behalf, managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance. The Company typically reimburses the Administrator on a quarterly basis.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized expenses under the Administration Agreement of $
1,369
and $
2,552
respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized expenses under the Administration Agreement of $
1,375
and $
2,735
respectively. No managerial assistance fees were accrued or collected for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Note 6. Fair Value
Fair value is defined 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. GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuations used to measure fair value into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level
1.
Level
2.
| a) |
Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
|
| b) |
Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in
non-active
markets;
|
| c) |
Pricing models whose inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
|
| d) |
Pricing models whose inputs are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data through correlation or other means for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
|
Level
3.
When the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3).
Gains and losses for assets and liabilities categorized within the Level 3 table below may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3).
A review of fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. Such reclassifications involving Level 3 assets and liabilities are reported as transfers in/out of Level 3 as of the end of the quarter in which the reclassifications occur. Within the fair value hierarchy tables below, cash and cash equivalents are excluded but could be classified as Level 1.

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
The Company typically determines the fair value of its performing debt investments utilizing a yield analysis. In a yield analysis, a price is ascribed for each investment based upon an assessment of current and expected market yields for similar investments and risk profiles. Additional consideration is given to current contractual interest rates, relative maturities and other key terms and risks associated with an investment. Among other factors, a significant determinant of risk is the amount of leverage used by the portfolio company relative to the total enterprise value of the company, and the rights and remedies of our investment within each portfolio company.
Significant unobservable quantitative inputs typically used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s Level 3 assets and liabilities primarily reflect current market yields, including indices, and readily available quotes from brokers, dealers, and pricing services as indicated by comparable assets and liabilities, as well as enterprise values, returns on equity and earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples of similar companies, and comparable market transactions for equity securities.

Note 16. Merger with SUNS
On December 1, 2021, we entered into the Merger Agreement, which provides that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SUNS, with SUNS continuing as the surviving company and as our wholly-owned subsidiary and, immediately thereafter, SUNS will merge with and into us, with us continuing as the surviving company. Both the Board and SUNS’s board of directors, including all of the respective independent directors, in each case, on the recommendation of a special committee comprised solely of the independent directors of us or SUNS, as applicable, have approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by each of us, SUNS and the Investment Adviser. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to the operation of each of our and SUNS’s businesses during the period prior to the closing of the Mergers.
Consummation of the Mergers, which occurred on April 1, 2022, was subject to certain closing conditions as disclosed in the Merger Agreement.
On April 1, 2022, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of SUNS. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was first merged with and into SUNS, with SUNS as the surviving corporation, and, immediately following the Merger, SUNS was then merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving company. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of SUNS’s common stock was converted into the right to receive
0.7796
shares of the Company’s common stock (with SUNS’s stockholders receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares of the Company’s common stock). As a result of the Mergers, the Company issued an aggregate of
12,511,825
shares of its common stock to former SUNS stockholders.
The Merger is accounted for as an asset acquisition of SLR Senior Investment Corp. by the Company in accordance with the asset acquisition method of accounting as detailed in ASC
805-50,
Business Combinations – Related Issues, with the fair value of total consideration paid in conjunction with the Merger allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values as of the date of the Merger. Generally, under asset acquisition accounting, acquiring assets in groups not only requires ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net assets), but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of the group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition is allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values of net identifiable assets acquired other than certain
“non-qualifying”
assets (for example cash) and does not give rise to goodwill. The Company is the accounting survivor of the Merger. The Merger was considered a
tax-free
reorganization and the historical cost basis of the acquired SUNS investments are carried forward for tax purposes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
SLR Investment Corp.:
Results of Review of Interim Financial Information
We have reviewed the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of SLR Investment Corp. (and subsidiaries) (the Company), including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of June 30, 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations and changes in net assets, for the three-month and
six-month
periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of cash flows for the
six-month
periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 1, 2022, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2021, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, from which it has been derived.
Basis for Review Results
This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Overview
Solar Capital LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, was formed in February 2007 and commenced operations on March 13, 2007 with initial capital of $1.2 billion of which 47.04% was funded by affiliated parties.
SLR Investment Corp. (the “Company”, “SLRC”, “we” or “our”), a Maryland corporation formed in November 2007, is a
closed-end,
externally managed,
non-diversified
management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Furthermore, as the Company is an investment company, it continues to apply the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946. In addition, for U.S federal income tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
On February 9, 2010, we priced our initial public offering, selling 5.68 million shares of our common stock. Concurrent with our initial public offering, Michael S. Gross, our Chairman,
Co-Chief
Executive Officer and President, and Bruce Spohler, our
Co-Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, collectively purchased an additional 0.6 million shares of our common stock through a private placement transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
We invest primarily in privately held U.S. middle-market companies, where we believe the supply of primary capital is limited and the investment opportunities are most attractive. Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. We invest primarily in leveraged middle-market companies in the form of senior secured loans, financing leases and to a lesser extent, unsecured loans and equity securities. From time to time, we may also invest in public companies that are thinly traded. Our business is focused primarily on the direct origination of investments through portfolio companies or their financial sponsors. Our investments generally range between $5 million and $100 million each, although we expect that this investment size will vary proportionately with the size of our capital base and/or with strategic initiatives. Our investment activities are managed by SLR Capital Partners, LLC (the “Investment Adviser”) and supervised by the board of directors (the “Board)”, a majority of whom are
non-interested,
as such term is defined in the 1940 Act. SLR Capital Management, LLC (the “Administrator”) provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate.
In addition, we may invest a portion of our portfolio in other types of investments, which we refer to as opportunistic investments, which are not our primary focus but are intended to enhance our overall returns. These investments may include, but are not limited to, direct investments in public companies that are not thinly traded and securities of leveraged companies located in select countries outside of the United States.
Merger Agreement
On December 1, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, with SLR Senior Investment Corp., a Maryland corporation (“SUNS”), Solstice Merger Sub, Inc., a Maryland corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), and, solely for the limited purposes set forth therein, the Investment Adviser. The Merger Agreement provides that, subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SUNS, with SUNS continuing as the surviving company and as SUNS’s wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger,”) and, immediately thereafter, SUNS will merge with and into us, with us continuing as the surviving company (together with the Merger, the “Mergers”). Both the Board and SUNS’s board of directors, including all of the respective independent directors, in each case, on the recommendation of a special committee comprised solely of the independent directors of us and SUNS, as applicable, have approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby.
The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by each of us, SUNS and the Investment Adviser. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants, including, among others, covenants relating to the operation of each of our and SUNS’s businesses during the period prior to the closing of the Mergers.
Consummation of the Mergers, which occurred on April 1, 2022, was subject to certain closing conditions as disclosed in the Merger Agreement.
On April 1, 2022, we completed our previously announced acquisition of SUNS. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was first merged with and into SUNS, with SUNS as the surviving corporation, and, immediately following the Merger, SUNS was then merged with and into us, with us as the surviving company. In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of SUNS’s common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.7796 shares of our common stock (with SUNS’s stockholders receiving cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock). As a result of the Mergers, we issued an aggregate of 12,511,825 shares of our common stock to former SUNS stockholders.
The Merger is accounted for as an asset acquisition of SLR Senior Investment Corp. by the Company in accordance with the asset acquisition method of accounting as detailed in ASC
805-50,
Business Combinations – Related Issues, with the fair value of total
40
consideration paid in conjunction with the Merger allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values as of the date of the Merger. Generally, under asset acquisition accounting, acquiring assets in groups not only requires ascertaining the cost of the asset (or net assets), but also allocating that cost to the individual assets (or individual assets and liabilities) that make up the group. The cost of the group of assets acquired in an asset acquisition is allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values of net identifiable assets acquired other than certain
“non-qualifying”
assets (for example cash) and does not give rise to goodwill. The Company is the accounting survivor of the Merger. The Merger was considered a
tax-free

Letter Agreement
On April 1, 2022, in connection with the consummation of the Mergers, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which the Investment Adviser voluntarily agreed to a permanent 25 basis point reduction of the annual base management fee rate payable by us to the Investment Adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, resulting in an annual base management fee rate payable by us to the Investment Adviser of 1.50% on gross assets up to 200% of our total net assets. We retained the annual base management fee rate payable by us to the Investment Adviser of 1.00% on gross assets that exceed 200% of our total net assets.
Recent Developments
On July 6, 2022, our Board declared a monthly distribution of $0.136667 per share payable on August 2, 2022 to holders of record as of July 21, 2022.
On August 2, 2022, our Board declared a monthly distribution of $0.136667 per share payable on September 1, 2022 to holders of record as of August 18, 2022.
The global outbreak of the
COVID-19
pandemic, and the related effect on the U.S. and global economies, has continued to have adverse consequences for the business operations of some of the Company’s portfolio companies and, as a result, has had adverse effects on the Company’s operations. The ultimate economic fallout from the pandemic, and the long-term impact on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, including the Company, remain uncertain. The operational and financial performance of the issuers of securities in which the Company invests depends on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, and such uncertainty may in turn adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Company’s investments and negatively impact the Company’s performance.
Investments
Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make. As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” The definition of “eligible portfolio company” includes certain public companies that do not have any securities listed on a national securities exchange and companies whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange but whose market capitalization is less than $250 million.
Revenue
We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest and dividend income from the securities we hold and capital gains, if any, on investment securities that we may sell. Our debt investments generally have a stated term of three to seven years and typically bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”), commercial paper rate, or the prime rate. Interest on our debt investments is generally payable monthly or quarterly but may be
(“PIK”) income. Such amounts of accrued PIK income are added to the cost of the investment on the respective capitalization dates and generally become due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and, if applicable, consulting fees, etc.
bi-monthly
or semi-annually. In addition, our investments may provide
payment-in-kind
Expenses
All investment professionals of the investment adviser and their respective staffs, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory and management services, and the compensation and routine overhead expenses of such personnel allocable to
41
such services, are provided and paid for by the Investment Adviser. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, including (without limitation):
| • |
the cost of our organization and public offerings;
|
| • |
the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;
|
| • |
the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of our shares and other securities;
|
| • |
interest payable on debt, if any, to finance our investments;
|
| • |
fees payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making investments, including fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence reviews of prospective investments and advisory fees;
|
| • |
transfer agent and custodial fees;
|
| • |
fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;
|
| • |
federal and state registration fees, any stock exchange listing fees;
|
| • |
federal, state and local taxes;
|
| • |
independent directors’ fees and expenses;
|
| • |
brokerage commissions;
|
| • |
fidelity bond, directors and officers errors and omissions liability insurance and other insurance premiums;
|
| • |
direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing, mailing, long distance telephone and staff;
|
| • |
fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs;
|
| • |
costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and applicable federal and state securities laws; and
|
| • |
all other expenses incurred by either SLR Capital Management or us in connection with administering our business, including payments under the Administration Agreement that will be based upon our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by SLR Capital Management in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions, and our allocable portion of the costs of compensation and related expenses of our chief compliance officer and our chief financial officer and their respective staffs.
|
We expect our general and administrative operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to increase moderately in dollar terms. During periods of asset growth, we generally expect our general and administrative operating expenses to decline as a percentage of our total assets and increase during periods of asset declines. Incentive fees, interest expense and costs relating to future offerings of securities, among others, may also increase or reduce overall operating expenses based on portfolio performance, interest rate benchmarks, and offerings of our securities relative to comparative periods, among other factors.
Portfolio and Investment Activity
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, exclusive of the assets acquired through the Merger, we invested approximately $94.7 million across 29 portfolio companies. This compares to investing approximately $69.0 million in 12 portfolio companies for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Investments sold, prepaid or repaid during the three months ended June 30, 2022 totaled approximately $78.5 million versus approximately $149.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
At June 30, 2022, our portfolio consisted of 127 portfolio companies and was invested 30.0% in cash flow senior secured loans, 30.9% in asset-based senior secured loans / SLR Credit Solutions (“SLR Credit”) / SLR Healthcare ABL / SLR Business Credit, 14.1% in Kingsbridge Holdings, LLC (“KBH”), 24.3% in equipment senior secured financings / SLR Equipment Finance (“SLR Equipment”) / Kingsbridge Holdings, LLC (“KBH”) and 14.8% in life science senior secured loans, in each case, measured at fair value, versus 101 portfolio companies and was invested 23.0% in cash flow senior secured loans, 25.5% in asset-based senior secured loans / SLR Credit, 33.3% in equipment senior secured financings / SLR Equipment / KBH, and 18.2% in life science senior secured loans, in each case, measured at fair value, at June 30, 2021.

On December 28, 2012, we acquired an equity interest in Crystal Capital Financial Holdings LLC (“Crystal Financial”) for $275 million in cash.

Upon the closing of this transaction, the Company holds 100% of the equity interest in SLR Credit. On September 30, 2016, Crystal Capital Financial Holdings LLC was dissolved.

As such, and subject to fluctuations in SLR Credit’s funded commitments, the timing of originations, and the repayments of financings, the Company cannot guarantee that SLR Credit will be able to maintain consistent dividend payments to us.
SLR Equipment Finance
On July 31, 2017, we acquired a 100% equity interest in NEF Holdings, LLC, which conducts its business through its wholly-owned subsidiary Nations Equipment Finance, LLC.

SLR Business Credit
SUNS acquired 100% of the equity interests of North Mill Capital LLC (“NMC”) on October 20, 2017. NMC is a leading asset-backed lending commercial finance company that provides senior secured asset-backed financings to U.S. based
businesses primarily in the manufacturing, services and distribution industries. SUNS invested approximately $51.0 million to effect the transaction. Subsequently, SUNS contributed 1% of its equity interest in NMC to ESP SSC Corporation. Immediately thereafter, SUNS and ESP SSC Corporation contributed their equity interests to NorthMill LLC (“North Mill”). On May 1, 2018, North Mill merged with and into NMC, with NMC being the surviving company. SUNS and ESP SSC Corporation then owned 99% and 1% of the equity interests of NMC, respectively.

Stock Repurchase Program
On May 3, 2022, our Board authorized a program for the purpose of repurchasing up to $50 million of our outstanding shares of common stock. Under the repurchase program, we may, but are not obligated to, repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock in the open market from time to time provided that we comply with our code of ethics and the guidelines specified in Rule
10b-18
of the Exchange Act, including certain price, market volume and timing constraints. In addition, any repurchases will be conducted in accordance with the 1940 Act. Unless amended or extended by our Board, we expect the repurchase program to be in place until the earlier of May 1, 2023 or until $50 million of our outstanding shares of common stock have been repurchased. The timing and number of shares to be repurchased will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions. There are no assurances that we will engage in any repurchases. As of June 30, 2022 no repurchases have taken place.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following items as critical accounting policies. Within the context of these critical accounting policies and disclosed subsequent events herein, we are not currently aware of any other reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
We conduct the valuation of our assets, pursuant to which our net asset value is determined, at all times consistent with GAAP, and the 1940 Act. Our valuation procedures are set forth in more detail in Note 2(b) to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to our consolidated financial statements express the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company records dividend income and interest, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis. Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest and/or dividends in cash are generally placed on
non-accrual
status when principal or interest/dividend cash payments are past due 30 days or more (90 days or more for equipment financing) and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest/dividend cash payments will be collected. Such
non-accrual
investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest or dividends are paid in cash, and in management’s judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining interest or dividend obligations. Interest or dividend cash payments received on investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Some of our investments may have contractual PIK income. PIK income computed at the contractual rate, as applicable, is accrued and reflected as
45
a receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Company capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at the maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on
non-accrual
status. When a PIK investment is placed on
non-accrual
status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends is reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. The Company does not reverse previously capitalized PIK income. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on
non-accrual
status are restored to accrual status if the Company again believes that PIK is expected to be realized. Loan origination fees, original issue discount, and market discounts are capitalized and amortized into income using the effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan, any unamortized loan origination fees are recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and other investments as interest income when we receive such amounts. Capital structuring fees are recorded as other income when earned.
The typically higher yields and interest rates on PIK securities, to the extent we invested, reflects the payment deferral and increased credit risk associated with such instruments and that such investments may represent a significantly higher credit risk than coupon loans. PIK securities may have unreliable valuations because their continuing accruals require continuing judgments about the collectability of the deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral. PIK income has the effect of generating investment income and increasing the incentive fees payable at a compounding rate. In addition, the deferral of PIK income also increases the
ratio at a compounding rate. PIK securities create the risk that incentive fees will be paid to the Investment Adviser based on
loan-to-value
non-cash
accruals that ultimately may not be realized, but the Investment Adviser will be under no obligation to reimburse the Company for these fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, capitalized PIK income totaled $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, capitalized PIK income totaled $1.6 million and $3.3 million, respectively.
Net Realized Gain or Loss and Net Change in Unrealized Gain or Loss
We generally measure realized gain or loss by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized origination or commitment fees and prepayment penalties. The net change in unrealized gain or loss reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gain or loss, when gains or losses are realized. Gains or losses on investments are calculated by using the specific identification method.
Income Taxes
SLRC, a U.S. corporation, has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to qualify for U.S. federal income taxation as a RIC, the Company is required, among other things, to timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a given tax year, we may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year distributions, the Company accrues an estimated excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
No. 2020-04,
“Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. ASU
2020-04
is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company has determined that the adoption of this guidance has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results comparisons are for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021:
Investment Income
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, gross investment income totaled $42.8 million and $75.8 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, gross investment income totaled $35.6 million and $71.5 million, respectively. The increase in gross investment income for the year over year three and six month periods was primarily due to a larger portfolio size as a result of the Merger, as well as due to an increase in LIBOR and SOFR.
46
Expenses
Net expenses totaled $22.5 million and $42.0 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, of which $11.6 million and $18.9 million, respectively, were base management fees and gross performance-based incentive fees and $10.4 million and $18.7 million, respectively, were interest and other credit facility expenses. Over the same periods, $1.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of performance-based incentive fees were waived. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $1.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Expenses totaled $20.1 million and $40.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, of which $10.8 million and $21.4 million, respectively, were base management fees and performance-based incentive fees and $7.2 million and $14.4 million, respectively, were interest and other credit facility expenses. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $2.1 million and $4.7 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Expenses generally consist of management and performance-based incentive fees, interest and other credit facility expenses, administrative services fees, insurance expenses, legal fees, directors’ fees, transfer agency fees, printing and proxy expenses, audit and tax services expenses, and other general and administrative expenses. Interest and other credit facility expenses generally consist of interest, unused fees, agency fees and loan origination fees, if any, among others. The increase in expenses for the year over year three and six month periods was primarily due to higher interest expense associated with the increase in LIBOR and SOFR.
Net Investment Income
The Company’s net investment income totaled $20.3 million and $33.8 million, or $0.37 and $0.70, per average share, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Net Realized Gain (Loss)
The Company had investment sales and prepayments totaling approximately $79 million and $180 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

The Company had investment sales and prepayments totaling approximately $150 million and $214 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Net realized gains over the same periods were $0.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Net realized losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 were de minimis. Net realized gains for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were generally related to the exit of our warrant position in PQ Bypass, Inc. Net realized gains for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were generally related to the exit of our warrant position in PQ Bypass, Inc., partially offset by losses from the sale of our legacy investment in B. Riley Financial, Inc.
Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, net change in unrealized loss on the Company’s assets and liabilities totaled $35.8 million and $47.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, net change in unrealized gain on the Company’s assets and liabilities totaled $2.5 million and $8.9 million, respectively. Net unrealized loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 is primarily due to depreciation in the value of our investments in PhyMed Management LLC, Rug Doctor LLC, American Teleconferencing Services, Ltd., SLR Credit Solutions and SLR Equipment Finance, among others, partially offset by unrealized appreciation on assets acquired in the Merger due to the accounting treatment of the purchase discount. Net unrealized gain for the three months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily due to appreciation in the value of our investments in PhyMed Management LLC, KBH Topco, LLC and Foundation Brands, LLC, among others, partially offset by the reversal of previously recognized appreciation in our investment in Genmark Diagnostics, Inc., as well as depreciation in the value of our investment in American Teleconferencing Services, Ltd. and SOAGG, LLC, among others. Net unrealized gain for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily due to appreciation in the value our investments in PhyMed Management LLC, Senseonics Holdings, Inc. and KBH Topco, LLC, among others, partially offset by the reversal of previously recognized appreciation in our investment in Genmark Diagnostics, Inc., as well as depreciation in the value of our investment in American Teleconferencing Services, Ltd. and SOAGG, LLC, among others.

Cash Equivalents

From time to time, including at or near the end of each fiscal quarter, we consider using various temporary investment strategies for our business. One strategy includes taking proactive steps by utilizing cash equivalents as temporary assets with the objective of enhancing our investment flexibility pursuant to Section 55 of the 1940 Act. More specifically, from
we may purchase U.S. Treasury bills or other high-quality, short-term debt securities at or near the end of the quarter and typically close out the position on a net cash basis subsequent to quarter end. We may also utilize repurchase agreements or other balance sheet transactions, including drawing down on the Credit Facility, as deemed appropriate. The amount of these transactions or such drawn cash for this purpose is excluded from total assets for purposes of computing the asset base upon which the management fee is determined. We held approximately $350 million in cash equivalents as of June 30, 2022.

Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted, as a BDC, to issue senior securities in amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 150% of gross assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, after each issuance of senior securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy the asset coverage test. If that happens, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments and, depending on the nature of our leverage, repay a portion of our indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous. Also, any amounts that we use to service our indebtedness would not be available for distributions to our common stockholders. Furthermore, as a result of issuing senior securities, we would also be exposed to typical risks associated with leverage, including an increased risk of loss.
We have also entered into two contracts under which we have future commitments: the Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser has agreed to serve as our investment adviser, and the Administration Agreement, pursuant to which the Administrator has agreed to furnish us with the facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct our
operations and provide on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance. Payments under the Advisory Agreement are equal to (1) a percentage of the value of our average gross assets and (2) a
day-to-day
two-part
incentive fee. Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an amount based upon our allocable portion of the Administrator’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, technology systems, insurance and our allocable portion of the costs of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. Either party may terminate each of the Advisory Agreement and administration agreement without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other. See note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

On July 31, 2017, the Company, NEFPASS LLC and NEFCORP LLC entered into a servicing agreement.

| (2) |
The asset coverage ratio for a class of senior securities representing indebtedness is calculated as our consolidated total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, divided by all senior securities representing indebtedness. This asset coverage ratio is multiplied by one thousand to determine the Asset Coverage Per Unit. In order to determine the specific Asset Coverage Per Unit for each class of debt, the total Asset Coverage Per Unit is allocated based on the amount outstanding in each class of debt at the end of the period. As of June 30, 2022, asset coverage was 200.8%.

The amount to which such class of senior security would be entitled upon the involuntary liquidation of the issuer in preference to any security junior to it.

Not applicable except for the 2042 Unsecured Notes which were publicly traded. The Average Market Value Per Unit is calculated by taking the daily average closing price during the period and dividing it by twenty-five dollars per share and multiplying the result by one thousand to determine a unit price per thousand consistent with Asset Coverage Per Unit. The average market value for the fiscal 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012 periods was $100,175, $98,196, $94,301, $93,392, and $92,302, respectively.

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
From
and in the normal course of business, the Company may make unfunded capital commitments to current or prospective portfolio companies. Typically, the Company may agree to provide delayed-draw term loans or, to a lesser extent, revolving loan or equity commitments. These unfunded capital commitments always take into account the Company’s liquidity and cash available for investment, portfolio and issuer diversification, and other considerations. Accordingly, the Company had the following unfunded capital commitments at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively:

The Company controls the funding of the SLR Credit Solutions and SLR Healthcare commitments and may cancel them at its discretion.
|
The credit agreements of the above loan commitments contain customary lending provisions and/or are subject to the portfolio company’s achievement of certain milestones that allow relief to the Company 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. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had sufficient cash available and/or liquid securities available to fund its commitments and had reviewed them for any appropriate fair value adjustment.
In the normal course of its business, we invest or trade in various financial instruments and may enter into various investment activities with
off-balance
sheet risk, which may include forward foreign currency contracts. Generally, these financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at future dates. These financial instruments contain varying degrees of
off-balance
sheet risk whereby changes in the market value or our satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end of the calendar year. Future quarterly distributions, if any, will be determined by the Board. We expect that our distributions to stockholders will generally be from accumulated net investment income, from net realized capital gains or
non-taxable
return of capital, if any, as applicable.
We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain our RIC tax treatment, we must distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. In addition, although we currently intend to distribute realized net capital gains (
, net long-term capital gains in excess of short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually, out of the assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.
i.e.
We maintain an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, if we declare a distribution, then stockholders’ cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, unless they specifically “opt out” of the dividend reinvestment plan so as to receive cash distributions.
54
We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a business development company, we may in the future be limited in our ability to make distributions. Also, the Credit Facility may limit our ability to declare distributions if we default under certain provisions. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of the tax benefits available to us as a regulated investment company. In addition, in accordance with GAAP and tax regulations, we include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as contractual
income, which represents contractual income added to the loan balance that becomes due at the end of the loan term, or the accrual of original issue or market discount. Since we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income to obtain tax benefits as a regulated investment company.
payment-in-kind
With respect to the distributions to stockholders, income from origination, structuring, closing and certain other upfront fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are treated as taxable income and accordingly, distributed to stockholders.
Related Parties
We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:
| • |
We have entered into the Advisory Agreement with the Investment Adviser. Mr. Gross, our Chairman,
Co-Chief
Executive Officer and President and Mr. Spohler, our
Co-Chief
Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and board member, are managing members and senior investment professionals of, and have financial and controlling interests in, the Investment Adviser. In addition, Mr. Peteka, our Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary serves as the Chief Financial Officer for the Investment Adviser.
|
| • |
The Administrator provides us with the office facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct
day-to-day
|
| • |
We have entered into a license agreement with the Investment Adviser, pursuant to which the Investment Adviser has granted us a
non-exclusive,
royalty-free license to use the licensed marks “SOLAR” and “SLR”.
|
The Investment Adviser may also manage other funds in the future that may have investment mandates that are similar, in whole and in part, with ours. For example, the Investment Adviser presently serves as investment adviser to SCP Private Credit Income BDC LLC, an unlisted BDC that focuses on investing primarily in senior secured loans, including
with one or more other funds. Any such investments will be made only to the extent permitted by applicable law and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff, and consistent with the Investment Adviser’s allocation procedures. On June 13, 2017, the Adviser received an exemptive order that permits the Company to participate in
non-traditional
asset-based loans and first lien loans and SLR HC BDC LLC, an unlisted BDC whose principal focus is to invest directly and indirectly in senior secured loans and other debt instruments typically to middle market companies within the healthcare industry. In addition, Michael S. Gross, our Chairman,
Co-Chief
Executive Officer and President, Bruce Spohler, our
Co-Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, and Richard L. Peteka, our Chief Financial Officer, serve in similar capacities for SCP Private Credit Income BDC LLC and SLR HC BDC LLC. The Investment Adviser and certain investment advisory affiliates may determine that an investment is appropriate for us and for one or more of those other funds. In such event, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, the Investment Adviser or its affiliates may determine that we should invest
side-by-side
negotiated co-investment transactions
with certain affiliates, in a manner consistent with the Company’s investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors, and pursuant to various conditions (the “Order”). If the Company is unable to rely on the Order for a particular opportunity, such opportunity will be allocated first to the entity whose investment strategy is the most consistent with the opportunity being allocated, and second, if the terms of the opportunity are consistent with more than one entity’s investment strategy, on an alternating basis. Although the Adviser’s investment professionals will endeavor to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner, the Company and its stockholders could be adversely affected to the extent investment opportunities are allocated among us and other investment vehicles managed or sponsored by, or affiliated with, our executive officers, directors and members of the Adviser.
Related party transactions may occur among us, SLR Credit, Equipment Operating Leases LLC, KBH, Loyer Capital LLC, SLR Business Credit, SLR Healthcare ABL and SLR Equipment. These transactions may occur in the normal course of business. No administrative or other fees are paid to the Investment Adviser by SLR Credit, Equipment Operating Leases LLC, KBH, Loyer Capital LLC, SLR Business Credit, SLR Healthcare ABL or SLR Equipment.
In addition, we have adopted a formal code of ethics that governs the conduct of our officers and directors. Our officers and directors also remain subject to the duties imposed by both the 1940 Act and the Maryland General Corporation Law.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. In addition, U.S. and global capital markets and credit markets have experienced a higher level of stress due to the global
by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options, swaps and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in any benefits of certain changes in interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. At June 30, 2022, we have no interest rate hedging instruments outstanding on our balance sheet.
COVID-19
pandemic, which has resulted in an increase in the level of volatility across such markets and a general decline in value of the securities that we hold. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. In a low interest rate environment, including a reduction of LIBOR and SOFR to zero, the difference between the total interest income earned on interest earning assets and the total interest expense incurred on interest bearing liabilities may be compressed, reducing our net interest income and potentially adversely affecting our operating results. Conversely, in a rising interest rate environment, such difference could potentially increase thereby increasing our net investment income. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, certain investments in our comprehensive investment portfolio had floating interest rates. These floating rate investments were primarily based on floating LIBOR or SOFR and typically have durations of one to three months after which they reset to current market interest rates. Additionally, some of these investments have floors. The Company also has revolving credit facilities that are generally based on floating LIBOR or SOFR. Assuming no changes to our balance sheet as of June 30, 2022 and no new defaults by portfolio companies, a hypothetical one percent decrease in LIBOR and SOFR on our comprehensive floating rate assets and liabilities would decrease our net investment income by eight cents per average share over the next twelve months. Assuming no changes to our balance sheet as of June 30, 2022 and no new defaults by portfolio companies, a hypothetical one percent increase in LIBOR and SOFR on our comprehensive floating rate assets and liabilities would increase our net investment income by approximately eleven cents per average share over the next twelve months. However, we may hedge against interest rate fluctuations from

We may also have exposure to foreign currencies through various investments. These investments are converted into U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date, exposing us to movements in foreign exchange rates. In order to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, we may borrow from
in such currencies under our multi-currency revolving credit facility or enter into forward currency or similar contracts.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2022 (the end of the period covered by this report), we, including our
Co-Chief
Executive Officers and 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 1934 Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the
Co-Chief
Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures.
(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 second quarter of 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
|
Item 1.
|
Legal Proceedings
|
Other than as described in Part II, Item. 1 - Legal Proceedings section of our Form
10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (which was filed with the SEC on May 3, 2022), to which there have been no material updates as of the date of this report, we,
56
the Administrator, and the Investment Adviser are not currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings threatened against us. From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations beyond what has been disclosed within these financial statements.

Item 1A.
|
Risk Factors
|
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in the March 1, 2022 filing of our Annual Report on
Form 10-K, which
could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Other than the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes during the period ended June 30, 2022 to the risk factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in the March 1, 2022 filing of our Annual Report on Form
10-K.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine may have a material adverse impact on us and our portfolio companies.
On February 24, 2022, the Russian military commenced a full-scale invasion of Russia’s pre-positioned forces into Ukraine, which could have a negative impact on the economy and business activity globally (including in the countries in which the Company invests), and therefore could adversely affect the performance of the Company’s investments. Following such invasion, the United States and several European nations announced sanctions against Russia. Furthermore, the conflict between the two nations and the varying involvement of the United States and other NATO countries could preclude prediction as to their ultimate adverse impact on global economic and market conditions, and, as a result, presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to the Company and the performance of its investments or operations, and the ability of the Company to achieve its investment objectives. Additionally, to the extent that third parties, investors, or related customer bases have material operations or assets in Russia or Ukraine, they may have adverse consequences related to the ongoing conflict.
