(2) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes that this number provides useful information to investors and management because it reflects the Company’s financial performance excluding the impact of the $1.5 million unrealized loss on our multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility, as amended and restated, with Truist Bank (formerly SunTrust Bank) and other lenders, or the Credit Facility, and our 4.3% Series A notes due 2023, or the 2023 Notes.

The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP.

PORTFOLIO AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

“We are pleased with the underlying credit performance of our portfolio this quarter. With our primary focus on lower risk, first lien senior secured floating rate loans to U.S. companies, we are positioned to preserve capital and protect against rising inflation and interest rates,” said Art Penn, Chairman and CEO. “We believe that the combination of rising base rates, higher spreads on new loan originations, and a growing PSSL joint venture create multiple pathways for income growth. We are looking forward to investing in the late 2022 and 2023 vintage of new loans that should benefit from more conservative structures at higher yields.”

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Set forth below are the results of operations for the three months and years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Investment Income

Investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $28.8 million and $21.6 million, respectively, and was attributable to $25.1 million and $18.6 million from first lien secured debt and $3.7 million and $3.0 million from other investments, respectively.

Investment income for the year ended September 30, 2022 was $105.5 million and was attributable to $89.1 million from first lien secured debt and $16.4 million from other investments. Investment income for the year ended September 30, 2021 was $82.7 million and was attributable to $72.1 million from first lien secured debt and $10.6 million from other investments. The increase in investment income compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to an increase in LIBOR and SOFR base rates and an increase in the size of our interest bearing portfolio.

Expenses

Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 totaled $16.1 million and $12.3 million, respectively. Base management fee totaled $3.0 million and $2.7 million, incentive fee totaled $3.2 million and $0.6 million, debt related interest and expenses totaled $9.0 million (including $0.4 million attributable to fees associated with the upsizing of the credit facility) and $8.5 million (including $2.9 million attributable to fees associated with entering into the new credit facility), general and administrative expenses totaled $0.9 million and $0.4 million and provision for taxes totaled $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the same periods.

Expenses for the year ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 totaled $56.9 million and $43.1 million, respectively. Base management fee for the same period totaled $11.9 million and $10.7 million, incentive fee totaled $11.6 million and $5.3 million, debt related interest and expenses totaled $29.8 million (including $0.4 million attributable to fees associated with the upsizing of the credit facility) and $24.5 million (including $2.9 million attributable to fees associated with entering into the new credit facility amendment fees), general and administrative expenses totaled $3.2 million and $2.1 million, and provision for taxes totaled $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the same periods. The increase in expenses compared to the prior year was primarily due to an increase in base management fees under our Investment Management Agreement with the Investment Advisor and debt related interest and expenses.

Net Investment Income

Net investment income totaled $12.7 million, or $0.28 per share, and $9.3 million, or $0.24 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Net investment income totaled $48.6 million, or $1.18 per share, and $39.6 million, or $1.02 per share, for the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in net investment income compared to the prior year was primarily due to an increase in the size of our portfolio as well as the increase in LIBOR and SOFR base interest rates.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

Net realized gains (losses) on sales and repayments of investments totaled $0.5 million and $2.5 million, respectively for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Net realized gains (losses) on sales and repayments of investments totaled $(11.1) million and $12.8 million, respectively for the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The change in realized gains (losses) was primarily due to changes in market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized, caused by the fluctuations in the market and in the economy.

Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments, the Credit Facility and the 2023 Notes

For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we reported a net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) appreciation on investments of $(20.9) million and $(7.5) million, respectively.

For the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we reported net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments of  $(24.5) million and $41.3 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, our net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $(13.1) million and $11.0 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on our investments for the year ended September 30, 2022 compared to the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized, caused by the fluctuations in the market and in the economy.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our Credit Facility and 2023 Notes had a net change in unrealized (appreciation) depreciation of $(6.2) million and $(0.3) million, respectively.

For the year ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Credit Facility or Prior Credit Facility, as applicable, and the 2023 Notes had a net change in unrealized (appreciation) depreciation of $(4.9) million and $(11.6) million and, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, our net unrealized depreciation on the Credit Facility or our Prior Credit Facility, as applicable, and the 2023 Notes totaled $2.3 million and $7.2 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized depreciation for the year ended September 30, 2022 compared to the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital markets, with the economic instability negatively affecting the value.

Net Change in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

Net change in net assets resulting from operations totaled $(13.1)  million, or $(0.34) per share, and $4.0 million, or $0.10 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Net change in net assets resulting from operations totaled $3.5 million, or $0.08 per share, and $56.5 million, or $1.46  per share, for the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in net assets from operations for the year ended September 30, 2022 compared to the prior year was primarily due to depreciation of the portfolio primarily driven by changes in market conditions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from proceeds of securities offerings, debt capital and cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments, and income earned. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our debt capital, proceeds from the rotation of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives.

The annualized weighted average cost of debt for the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment on the Credit Facility or Prior Credit Facility, as applicable, amendment costs and debt issuance costs, was 4.5% and 3.9%, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, we maintained a $366 million Credit Facility, which was recently increased from $300 million during September 2022, and matures in August 2026. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, we had $197.2 million and $80.6 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility or our Prior Credit Facility, as applicable, respectively, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions.

As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, our wholly owned subsidiary, PennantPark Floating Rate Funding I, LLC, borrowed $168.8 million and $219.4 million under the Credit Facility or Prior Credit Facility, as applicable, respectively. The Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 4.9% and 2.3%, exclusive of the fee on undrawn commitments as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, we had cash equivalents of $47.9 million and $49.8 million, respectively, available for investing and general corporate purposes. We believe our liquidity and capital resources are sufficient to allow us to efficiently operate the business.

Our operating activities used cash of  $50.0 million for the year ended September 30, 2022, and our financing activities provided cash of  $47.7 million for the same period. Our operating activities used cash primarily for our investment activities and our financing activities used cash primarily for paying down the Credit Facility and paying distributions to stockholders.

Our operating activities provided cash of $49.6 million for the year ended September 30, 2021, and our financing activities used cash of $56.3 million for the same period. Our operating activities used cash primarily for our investment activities and our financing activities used cash primarily for paying down the Credit Facility and paying distributions to stockholders.

DISTRIBUTIONS

During the three months and year ended September 30, 2022, we declared distributions of $0.285 and $1.14 per share, respectively, for total distributions of $12.6 and $46.7 million, respectively. During the three months and year ended September 30, 2021, we declared distributions of $0.285 and $1.14 per share, respectively, for total distributions of $11.0 and $44.2 million, respectively. We monitor available net investment income to determine if a return of capital for tax purposes may occur for the fiscal year. To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for any given fiscal year, stockholders will be notified of the portion of those distributions deemed to be a tax return of capital. Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders subject to information reporting on Form 1099-DIV after the end of each calendar year and in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.
