CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current or prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “will,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements include these words. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.

The following factors and factors listed under “Risk Factors” in this report and other documents Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. The occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this report could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial position. The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements:

 

   

uncertainty surrounding the financial stability of the United States, Europe and China;

 

   

the ability of our investment adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments;

 

   

potential fluctuation in quarterly operating results;

 

   

potential impact of economic recessions or downturns;

 

   

adverse developments in the credit markets;

 

   

regulations governing our operation as a business development company;

 

   

operation in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities;

 

   

changes in interest rates may affect our cost of capital and net investment income;

 

   

the impact of changes in London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) on our operating results;

 

   

financing investments with borrowed money;

 

   

potential adverse effects of price declines and illiquidity in the corporate debt markets;

 

   

the impact of COVID-19 on our portfolio companies and the markets in which they operate, interest rates and the economy in general;

 

   

lack of liquidity in investments;

 

   

the outcome and impact of any litigation;

 

   

the timing, form and amount of any dividend distributions;

 

   

risks regarding distributions;

 

   

potential adverse effects of new or modified laws and regulations;

 

   

the social, geopolitical, financial, trade and legal implications of Brexit;

 

   

potential resignation of the Adviser and or the Administrator;

 

   

uncertainty as to the value of certain portfolio investments;

 

   

defaults by portfolio companies;

 

   

our ability to successfully complete and integrate any acquisitions;

 

   

risks associated with original issue discount (“OID”) and payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest income; and

 

   

the market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based upon are reasonable, some of those assumptions may be based on the work of third parties and any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate; as a result, forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could prove to be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the SEC, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. The safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which preclude civil liability for certain forward-looking statements, do not apply to the forward-looking statements in this report because we are an investment company.

For each, the Company has provided the spread over LIBOR or Prime and the current interest rate in effect at June 30, 2021. Certain investments are subject to a LIBOR or Prime interest rate floor. For fixed rate loans, a spread above a reference rate is not applicable.

Consolidated Schedule of Investments

December 31, 2020

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

 

*

The majority of the investments bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR” or “L”), Prime (“P”), CDOR (“C”) or EURIBOR (“E”) and which reset monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually. For each, the Company has provided the spread over LIBOR or Prime and the current interest rate in effect at December 31, 2020. Certain investments are subject to a LIBOR or Prime interest rate floor. For fixed rate loans, a spread above a reference rate is not applicable.

**

Percentage is based on net assets of $560,000 as of December 31, 2020.

(1)

All positions held are non-controlled/non-affiliated investments, unless otherwise noted, as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). Non-controlled/non-affiliated investments are investments that are neither controlled nor affiliated.

(2)

All debt investments are income-producing, unless otherwise noted. Equity and member interests are non-income-producing unless otherwise noted. The Company generally acquires its investments in private transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. Its investments are therefore generally subject to certain limitations on resale, and may be deemed to be “restricted securities” under the Securities Act.

(3)

The fair value of the investment was determined using significant unobservable inputs. See Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”.

(4)

The negative cost, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount or unfunded commitment being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount or unfunded commitment on the loan.

(5)

Investment pays 0.50% unfunded commitment fee on delayed draw term loan and/or revolving credit facilities.

(6)

Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. See Note 7 “Commitments and Contingencies”.

(7)

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the greater of a LIBOR floor or 1 month LIBOR plus a base rate. The 1 month LIBOR as of December 31, 2020 was 0.14%. For some of these loans, the interest rate is based on the last reset date.

(8)

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the greater of a LIBOR floor or 3 month LIBOR plus a base rate. The 3 month LIBOR as of December 31, 2020 was 0.24%. For some of these loans, the interest rate is based on the last reset date.

(9)

Investment pays 1.00% unfunded commitment fee on delayed draw term loan and/or revolving credit facilities.

(10)

As defined in the 1940 Act, the portfolio company is deemed to be a “non-controlled affiliated person” of the Company because the Company owns, either directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities. See Note 3 “Agreements and Related Party Transactions”.

(11)

Fixed rate investment.

(12)

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the greater of a LIBOR floor or 6 month LIBOR plus a base rate. The 6 month LIBOR as of December 31, 2020 was 0.26%. For some of these loans, the interest rate is based on the last reset date.

(13)

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the greater of a LIBOR floor or 2 month LIBOR plus a base rate. The 2 month LIBOR as of December 31, 2020 was 0.19%. For some of these loans, the interest rate is based on the last reset date.

(14)

Investment pays 0.75% unfunded commitment fee on delayed draw term loan and/or revolving credit facilities.

(15)

Investment is not a qualifying investment as defined under section 55 (a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Qualifying assets must represent at least 70% of total assets at the time of acquisition. The Company’s percentage of non-qualifying assets based on fair value was 13.30% as of December 31, 2020.

(16)

The investment is on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2020.

(17)

These loans are unitranche first lien/last-out term loans. In addition to the interest earned based on the effective interest rate of this loan, which is the amount reflected in this schedule, the Company is entitled to receive additional interest as a result of an agreement among lenders whereby the loan has been allocated to “first-out” and “last-out” tranches, whereby the “first-out” tranche will have priority as to the “last-out” tranche with respect to payments of principal, interest and any amounts due thereunder. The Company holds the “last-out” tranche.

(18)

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the greater of a LIBOR floor or 12 month LIBOR plus a base rate. The 12 month LIBOR as of December 31, 2020 was 0.34%. For some of these loans, the interest rate is based on the last reset date.

(19)

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the U.S. Prime rate, which as of December 31, 2020 was 3.25%.

(20)

CRESCENT CAPITAL BDC, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

June 30, 2021 (Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed on February 5, 2015 (“Inception”) as a Delaware corporation structured as an externally managed, closed-end management investment company. The Company commenced investment operations on June 26, 2015. On January 30, 2020, the Company changed its state of incorporation from the State of Delaware to the State of Maryland. The Company has elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and currently operates as a diversified investment company. In addition, the Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a RIC, the Company will not be taxed on its income to the extent that it distributes such income each year and satisfies other applicable income tax requirements.

The Company’s investment objective is to maximize the total return to its stockholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation through debt and related equity investments. The Company invests primarily in secured debt (including first lien, unitranche first lien and second lien debt) and unsecured debt (including mezzanine and subordinated debt), as well as related equity securities of private U.S. middle-market companies. Although the Company’s focus is to invest in private credit transactions, in certain circumstances it may also invest in broadly syndicated loans and bonds.

The Company is managed by Crescent Cap Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser” and formerly, CBDC Advisors, LLC), an investment adviser that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. CCAP Administration LLC (the “Administrator” and formerly, CBDC Administration, LLC) provides the administrative services necessary for the Company to operate. Company management consists of investment and administrative professionals from the Adviser and Administrator along with the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Adviser directs and executes the investment operations and capital raising activities of the Company subject to oversight from the Board, which sets the broad policies of the Company. The Board has delegated investment management of the Company’s investment assets to the Adviser. The Board consists of five directors, four of whom are independent.

The Company has formed a wholly owned subsidiary that is structured as a tax blocker, to hold equity or equity-like investments in portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies or other forms of pass-through entities. This corporate subsidiary is not consolidated for income tax purposes and may incur income tax expense as a result of its ownership of portfolio companies.

On January 31, 2020, the Company completed a transaction to acquire Alcentra Capital Corporation in a cash and stock transaction (the “Alcentra Acquisition”). The Company was listed and began trading on the NASDAQ stock exchange on February 3, 2020.

On January 5, 2021, Sun Life Financial Inc. (together with its subsidiaries and joint ventures, “Sun Life”) acquired a majority interest in Crescent Capital Group LP (“Crescent”), the majority member of the Adviser (the “Sun Life Transaction”). Consummation of the Sun Life Transaction resulted in a change of control of Crescent.

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to Regulation S-X. The Company is an investment company and, therefore, applies the specialized accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial results included herein contain all adjustments and reclassifications that are necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the periods included herein. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the year ending December 31, 2021.

Table of Contents

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments that in the opinion of management are necessary for the fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Although management believes that the estimates and assumptions are reasonable, changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and may include highly liquid investments (e.g., money market funds, U.S. Treasury notes, and similar type instruments) with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents other than money market mutual funds, are carried at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Money market mutual funds are carried at their net asset value, which approximates fair value. Restricted cash and cash equivalents consists of deposits and cash collateral held at Wells Fargo Bank N.A. related to the Company’s credit facility and foreign currency forward contracts. The Company holds cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies. The Company deposits its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash with highly rated banking corporations and, at times, cash deposits may exceed the insured limits under applicable law.

Investment Transactions

Loan originations are recorded on the date of the binding commitment. Investments purchased on a secondary market are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are recorded using the specific identification method as the difference between the net proceeds received (excluding prepayment fees, if any) and the amortized cost basis of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments written off during the period, net of recoveries. The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment fair values as of the last business day of the reporting period and also includes the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period.

Investment Valuation

The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company considers its principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in the determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:

Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

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

Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at those market quotations. To validate market quotations, the Company utilizes a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of the quotations. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, based on, among other things, the input of the Adviser, the Company’s Audit Committee and, with certain de minimis exceptions, independent third-party valuation firms engaged at the direction of the Board.

The Board oversees and supervises a multi-step valuation process, which includes, among other procedures, the following:

 

   

The valuation process begins with each investment being initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment in conjunction with the portfolio management team.

   

The Adviser’s management and Crescent’s alternative investment valuation committee reviews the preliminary valuations with the investment professionals. Agreed upon valuation recommendations are presented to the Audit Committee.

   

The Audit Committee reviews the valuations presented and recommends values for each investment to the Board.

   

The Board reviews the recommended valuations and determines the fair value of each investment.

 

38


Table of Contents

Investments in investment companies are valued at fair value. Fair values are generally determined utilizing the net asset value (“NAV”) supplied by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company, which is net of management and incentive fees or allocations charged by the investment company and is in accordance with the “practical expedient”, as defined by ASC 820. NAVs received by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company are based on the fair value of the investment company’s underlying investments in accordance with policies established by management of each investment company, as described in each of their financial statements and offering memorandum. Investments which are valued using NAV as a practical expedient are excluded from the above hierarchy.

The Company applies the valuation policy approved by its Board that is consistent with ASC 820. Consistent with the valuation policy, the Company evaluates the source of inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value. When a security is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (that is, broker quotes), the Company subjects those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for classification as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. For example, the Company reviews pricing methodologies provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs. Some additional factors considered include the number of prices obtained as well as an assessment as to their quality. Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the period in which the transfers occur.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be realized. Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may be subject to contractual and other restrictions on resale. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, it could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different from the unrealized gains or losses reflected herein.

Foreign Currency

Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

 

   

cash and cash equivalents, fair value of investments, outstanding debt on revolving credit facilities, other assets and liabilities: at the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period; and

 

   

purchases and sales of investments, borrowings and repayments of such borrowings, income and expenses: at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although net assets and fair values are presented based on the applicable foreign exchange rates described above, the Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held. Gains or losses on foreign currency transactions are included with net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Fluctuations arising from the translation of foreign currency on cash, investments and borrowings are included with net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency translation on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company’s approach to hedging the foreign currency exposure in its non-U.S. dollar denominated investments is to enter into foreign currency forward contracts.

Foreign currency forward contracts

The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies. In a foreign currency forward contract, the Company agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market at the applicable forward rate. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts are recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities on a gross basis, not taking into account collateral posted which is recorded separately, if applicable. All foreign currency forward contracts are currently held with a single counterparty. Notional amounts and the gross fair value of foreign currency forward contract assets and liabilities are presented separately on the Consolidated Schedules of Investments. Purchases and sales of foreign currency forward contracts having the same notional value, settlement date and counterparty are generally settled net (which results in a net foreign currency position of zero with the counterparty) and any realized gains or losses are recognized on the settlement date.

The Company does not utilize hedge accounting and as such, the Company recognizes its derivatives at fair value with changes in the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company records costs related to the issuance of debt obligations as deferred financing costs. These costs are amortized over the life of the related debt instrument using the straight-line method or the effective yield method, depending on the type of debt instrument. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were $6,020 and $4,600, respectively, of deferred financing costs netted against debt balances on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Equity Offering Expenses

The Company records expenses related to registration statement filings and applicable offering costs as deferred offering costs. To the extent such expenses relate to equity offerings, these expenses are charged as a reduction of paid-in-capital upon each such offering.

Interest and Dividend Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of purchase discounts and premiums. Discounts and premiums to par value are accreted or amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion and amortization of discounts and premiums, if any. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.

Dividend income from common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies. Dividend income from preferred equity securities is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Each distribution received from an equity investment is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, the Company will not record distributions from equity investments as dividend income unless there is sufficient current or accumulated earnings prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.

Certain investments have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal or cost basis of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest income, as applicable. If at any point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status. Accrued PIK interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, respectively, when an investment is placed on non-accrual status.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had two portfolio companies with three investment positions on non-accrual status, which represented 1.6% and 1.2% of the total debt investments at cost and fair value, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had two portfolio companies with three investment positions on non-accrual status, which represented 1.7% and 1.3% of the total debt investments at cost and fair value, respectively.

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, agency, underwriting and arranger fees associated with the Company’s investment activities. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The Company also has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Internal Revenue Code. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it will generally not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income or excise taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as dividends. As a result, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Company’s stockholders and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reversed and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. The Company accounts for income taxes in conformity with ASC 740 — Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in financial statements.

Table of Contents

The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Code, pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income taxes. As of June 30, 2021, the Company is subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for returns filed for the three most recent calendar years and by state tax authorities for returns filed for the four most recent calendar years.

In order for the Company not to be subject to federal excise taxes, it must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections), (ii) 98.2% of its net capital gains from the current year and (iii) any undistributed ordinary income and net capital gains from preceding years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If the Company chooses to do so, this generally would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to stockholders. The Company accrues excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income as required on a quarterly basis. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company expensed an excise tax of $131 and $261, respectively, of which $310 remained payable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 the Company expensed an excise tax of $105 and $342, respectively, of which $198 remained payable.

CBDC Universal Equity, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is a taxable entity (“Taxable Subsidiary”). The Taxable Subsidiary permits the Company to hold equity investments in portfolio companies which are “pass through” entities for tax purposes and continues to comply with the “source income” requirements contained in RIC tax provisions of the Code. The Taxable Subsidiary is not consolidated with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expense, benefit, and the related tax assets and liabilities, as a result of its ownership of certain portfolio investments. The income tax expense, or benefit, if any, and related tax assets and liabilities are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a benefit/(provision) for taxes of $209 and $60, respectively, on unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments and net operating losses and federal tax credits related to the Taxable Subsidiary. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized a benefit/(provision) for taxes of $(193) and $262, respectively, on unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments and net operating losses and federal tax credits related to the Taxable Subsidiary. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $161 and $630, respectively, was included in deferred tax assets on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities relating to net operating loss carryforwards and unrealized losses on investments and other temporary book to tax differences that are expected to be used in future periods. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $794 and $1,324, respectively, was included in deferred tax liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities primarily relating to deferred taxes on unrealized gains on investments held in the Company’s corporate subsidiary and other temporary book to tax differences of the corporate subsidiary.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $972 related to allocated taxable income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a provision of $372 related to realized gains on investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized no income tax expense or provision on realized gains.

Dividends and Distributions to Stockholders

Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the record date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by the Board each quarter. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

The Company adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of the Company’s dividends and other distributions on behalf of the stockholders unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Company’s Board authorizes, and the Company declares, a cash dividend, or other distribution then stockholders who are participating in the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash dividends and distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, rather than receiving cash dividends and distributions.

New Accounting Standards

In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” and in January 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2021-01 (“ASU 2021-01”) “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. This ASU provides optional exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions affected reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 and 2021-01 are elective and can be adopted between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. The Company doesn’t expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The SEC issued final rules that, among other things, amended the financial disclosure requirements of Regulation S-X for acquired and disposed businesses and the significance tests for a “significant subsidiary” as applicable to BDCs and amended certain forms used by BDCs. The amendments are intended to assist BDCs in making more meaningful determinations as to whether a subsidiary or an acquired or disposed entity is significant and improve the financial disclosure requirements applicable to acquisitions and dispositions of investment companies and BDCs. The Company early adopted the updated rules for the year ended December 31, 2020 which did not result in any new significant subsidiaries being identified.

Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions

Administration Agreement

On June 2, 2015, the Company entered into the Administration Agreement with the Administrator, as amended and restated on February 1, 2020. Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides administrative services to the Company. These services include providing office space, equipment and office services, maintaining financial records, preparing reports to stockholders and reports filed with the SEC, and managing the payment of expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered by others. Certain of these services are reimbursable to the Administrator under the terms of the Administration Agreement. In addition, the Administrator is permitted to delegate its duties under the Administration Agreement to affiliates or third parties. To the extent the Administrator outsources any of its functions, the Company will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis, without incremental profit to the Administrator. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty on 60 days’ written notice to the other party.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred administrative services expenses of $257 and $514, respectively, which are included in other general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred administrative expenses of $207 and $411, respectively, which are included in other general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. In addition to administrative services expenses, the payable balances include other operating expenses paid by the Administrator on behalf of the Company. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $290 and $321, respectively, was payable to the Administrator.

No person who is an officer, director or employee of the Administrator or its affiliates and who serves as a director of the Company receives any compensation from the Company for his or her services as a director. However, the Company reimburses the Administrator (or its affiliates) for an allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Administrator or its affiliates to the Company’s accounting professionals, legal counsel, and compliance professionals who spend time on such related activities (based on the percentage of time those individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business and affairs of the Company). The allocable portion of the compensation for these officers and other professionals are included in the administration expenses paid to the Administrator. Directors who are not affiliated with the Administrator or its affiliates receive compensation for their services and reimbursement of expenses incurred to attend meetings, which are included as directors’ fees on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Investment Advisory Agreement

On June 2, 2015, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Adviser, which was subsequently amended and restated (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) and approved by the Company’s stockholders on January 29, 2020 in connection with the Alcentra Acquisition. Subsequently on December 17, 2020 in connection with the Sun Life Transaction, the Investment Advisory Agreement was re-approved by the Company’s stockholders. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides investment advisory services to the Company and its portfolio investments. The Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and the Adviser is free to furnish similar or other services to others so long as its services to the Company are not impaired. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreements, the Adviser is entitled to receive a base management fee and may also receive incentive fees, as discussed below.

Base Management Fee

Effective February 1, 2020, pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Base Management Fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.25% of the Company’s gross assets, including assets acquired through the incurrence of debt but excluding any cash and cash equivalents. The Base Management Fee is calculated based on the average value of gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter. For purposes of the Investment Advisory Agreement, cash equivalents means U.S. government securities and commercial paper maturing within one year of purchase.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser agreed to waive a portion of the management fee from February 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021 after the closing of the Alcentra Acquisition so that only 0.75% shall be charged for such time period. The Adviser has also voluntarily waived its right to receive management fees on the Company’s investments in GACP II LP and WhiteHawk III Onshore Fund LP for any period in which these investments remain in the investment portfolio.

Prior to February 1, 2020, the Base Management Fee was calculated and payable quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Company’s gross assets, including assets acquired through the incurrence of debt but excluding any cash and cash equivalents. The Adviser agreed to waive its right to receive management fees in excess of the sum of (i) 0.25% of the aggregate committed but undrawn capital and (ii) 0.75% of the aggregate gross assets excluding cash and cash equivalents during the period prior to February 3, 2020, the date of the Company’s qualified initial public offering.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred management fees of $2,007 and $3,931 respectively, which are net of waived amounts of $1,337 and $2,620, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred management fees of $1,660 and $3,154, respectively, which are net of waived amounts of $1,107 and $2,264, respectively. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $2,007 and $1,867 of management fees, respectively, remained payable.

Incentive Fee per Investment Advisory Agreement

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Incentive Fee consists of two parts:

The first part, the income incentive fee, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and (a) equals 100% of the excess of the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, over a preferred return of 1.75% (1.50% prior to February 1, 2020) per quarter (7.0% annualized or 6.0% annualized prior to February 1, 2020) (the “Hurdle”), and a catch-up feature until the Adviser has received 17.5% (15.0% prior to February 1, 2020), of the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the current quarter up to 1.8182% (1.7647% prior to February 1, 2020) (the “Catch-up”), and (b) 17.5% (15.0% prior to February 1, 2020) of all remaining pre-incentive fee net investment income above the “Catch-up.”

The second part, the capital gains incentive fee, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year at a rate of 17.5% (15.0% prior to February 1, 2020) of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from the Company’s inception through the end of the fiscal year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees. In the event that the Investment Advisory Agreement shall terminate as of a date that is not a fiscal year end, the termination date shall be treated as though it were a fiscal year end for purposes of calculating and paying a capital gains incentive fee.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser agreed to waive the income based portion of the incentive fee from February 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021. The income and capital gains incentive fees were previously waived from April 1, 2018 through February 1, 2020. Additionally, On February 22, 2021, the Adviser notified the Board of Directors of its intent to voluntarily waive incentive fees to the extent net investment income falls short of the declared dividend on a full dollar basis. The waiver will become effective upon expiration of the current waivers on July 31, 2021 and will continue through December 31, 2022. Once the Adviser begins to earn income incentive fees, the Adviser will voluntarily waive the income incentive fees attributable to the investment income accrued by the Company as a result of its investments in GACP II and WhiteHawk III Onshore Fund LP.

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 the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during each calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for such quarter (including the Base Management Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense and distributions paid on any issued and outstanding debt or preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as market discount, original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest, preferred stock with PIK dividends and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Pre-incentive fee net investment income will be compared to a “Hurdle Amount” equal to the product of (i) the Hurdle rate of 1.50% or 1.75% per quarter, 6.0% or 7.0% annualized, prior to and effective February 1, 2020, respectively, and (ii) our net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness, before taking into account any incentive fees payable during the period), at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a “catch-up” provision incurred at the end of each calendar quarter.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred income incentive fees of $0, which are net of waived amounts, of $2,588 and $4,866 respectively, of which $0 was payable at June 30, 2021. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company incurred income incentive fees of $0, which are net of waived amounts of $2,267 and $4,199, respectively, of which $0 was payable at June 30, 2020.

GAAP Incentive Fee on Cumulative Unrealized Capital Appreciation

The Company accrues, but does not pay, a portion of the Incentive Fee based on capital gains with respect to net unrealized appreciation. Under GAAP, the Company is required to accrue an Incentive Fee based on capital gains that includes net realized capital gains and losses and net unrealized capital appreciation and depreciation on investments held at the end of each period. In calculating the accrual for the Incentive Fee based on capital gains, the Company considers the cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation in the calculation, since an Incentive Fees based on capital gains would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. This accrual is calculated using the aggregate cumulative realized capital gains and losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. If such amount is positive at the end of a period, then the Company records a capital gains incentive fee equal to 15% (prior to February 3, 2020) or 17.5% (effective February 3, 2020) of such amount, minus the aggregate amount of actual Incentive Fees based on capital gains paid in all prior periods. If such amount is negative, then there is no accrual for such period. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.

Table of Contents

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded capital gains incentive fees on unrealized capital appreciation of $3,816 and $5,393, respectively, of which $5,393 was accrued and unpaid at June 30, 2021. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded no incentive fee on cumulative unrealized capital appreciation.

Other Related Party Transactions

From time to time, the Administrator may pay amounts owed by the Company to third-party providers of goods or services, including the Board, and the Company will subsequently reimburse the Administrator for such amounts paid on its behalf. Amounts payable to the Administrator are settled in the normal course of business without formal payment terms.

In conjunction with the closing of Alcentra Capital merger, the Company and the Adviser executed a Transaction Support Agreement, as described in Note 13.

A portion of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock is owned by Crescent. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Crescent owned 2.12% and 2.11%, respectively, of the outstanding common shares of the Company. Crescent is also the majority member of the Adviser and sole member of the Administrator. The Company has entered into a license agreement with Crescent under which Crescent granted the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Crescent Capital”. The Adviser has entered into a resource sharing agreement with Crescent. Crescent will provide the Adviser with the resources necessary for the Adviser to fulfill its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement. On January 5, 2021, Sun Life acquired a majority interest in Crescent. Consummation of the Sun Life Transaction resulted in a change of control of Crescent. There were no changes to the Company’s investment objective, strategies and process or to the Crescent team responsible for the investment operations of the Company as a result of the Sun Life Transaction.

Sun Life is the sole lender of the Company’s 2023 Unsecured Notes and a $10,000 participating lender in the Company’s 2026 Unsecured Notes, both described further in Note 6.

Investments in and affiliated and controlled companies

Under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify non-controlled investments where it owns 5% or more of a portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and/or has the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company as investments in “affiliated” companies. In addition, under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify investments where it owns more than 25% of a portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and/or has the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company as investments in “controlled” companies. Detailed information with respect to the Company’s non-controlled, non-affiliated; non-controlled, affiliated; and controlled affiliated investments is contained in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, including the Consolidated Schedule of Investments and the summary tables below.

(1) Together with Masterland Enterprise Holdings, Ltd. (“Masterland”, and collectively with the Company, the “Members”), the Company invests through the Senior Loan Fund. The Senior Loan Fund is not an extension of the Company’s investment operations given shared power/voting rights exist with Masterland, Additionally, the Company’s investment strategy focuses on middle market lending in senior secured first lien, second lien and equity investments, while the Senior Loan Fund focuses on senior secured broadly syndicated loans. Although the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities of the Senior Loan Fund, the Company does not have control over the Senior Loan Fund (other than for purposes of the Investment Company Act). See Note 4 “Investments” for further detail.

(2) Gross additions may include increases in the cost basis of investments resulting from new portfolio investments, PIK interest or dividends, the accretion of discounts, the exchange of one or more existing securities for one or more new securities and the movement of an existing portfolio company into this category from a different category.

(3) Gross reductions may include decreases in the cost basis of investments resulting from principal collections related to investment repayments or sales, the exchange of one or more existing securities for one or more new securities and the movement of an existing portfolio company out of this category into a different category.

Note 4. Investments

The Company’s investments at any time may include securities and other financial instruments or other assets of any sort, including corporate and government bonds, convertible securities, collateralized loan obligations, term loans, trade claims, equity securities, privately negotiated securities, direct placements, working interests, warrants and investment derivatives (including, but not limited to credit default swaps, recovery swaps, total return swaps, options, forward contracts, and futures) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to in these consolidated financial statements as “investments”).

“First lien” investments are senior loans on a lien basis to other liabilities in the issuer’s capital structure that have the benefit of a first-priority security interest in assets of the issuer. The security interest ranks above the security interest of any second-lien lenders in those assets.

“Unitranche first lien” investments are loans that may extend deeper in a company’s capital structure than traditional first lien debt and may provide for a waterfall of cash flow priority among different lenders in the unitranche loan. In certain instances, the Company may find another lender to provide the “first out” portion of such loan and retain the “last out” portion of such loan, in which case, the “first out” portion of the loan would generally receive priority with respect to payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder over the “last out” portion that the Company would continue to hold. In exchange for the greater risk of loss, the “last out” portion earns a higher interest rate.

“Second lien” investments are loans with a second priority lien on all existing and future assets of the portfolio company. The security interest ranks below the security interests of any first lien and unitranche first lien lenders in those assets.

“Unsecured debt” investments are loans that generally rank senior to a borrower’s equity securities and junior in right of payment to such borrower’s other senior indebtedness.

The information in the following tables is presented on an aggregate portfolio basis, without regard to whether they are non-controlled, non-affiliated, non-controlled, affiliated or controlled affiliated, investments.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $0 in transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 and $20,291 in transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 due to a decrease in observable inputs in market data.

The following tables present the fair value of Level 3 investments and the ranges of significant unobservable inputs used to value the Company’s Level 3 investments as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. These ranges represent the significant unobservable inputs that were used in the valuation of each type of investment. These inputs are not representative of the inputs that could have been used in the valuation of any one investment. For example, the highest market yield presented in the table for senior secured first lien investments is appropriate for valuing a specific investment but may not be appropriate for valuing any other investment. Accordingly, the ranges of inputs presented below do not represent uncertainty in, or possible ranges of, fair value measurements of the Company’s Level 3 investments.

Table of Contents

As noted above, the discounted cash flows and market multiple approaches were used in the determination of fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The significant unobservable inputs used in the discounted cash flow approach is the discount rate used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which include both future principal and interest payments. Increases and decreases in the discount rate would result in a decrease and increase in the fair value, respectively. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates is risk of default, rating of the investment, call provisions and comparable company investments. The significant unobservable inputs used in the market multiple approach are the multiples of similar companies’ earnings before income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and comparable market transactions. Increases and decreases in market EBITDA multiples would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value, respectively. The recovery rate represents the extent to which proceeds can be recovered. An increase/decrease in the recovery rate would result in an increase/decrease, respectively, in the fair value.

The amount presented excludes netting of deferred financing costs.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying amount of the Company’s outstanding debt approximated fair value. The fair values of the Company’s debt are determined in accordance with ASC 820, which defines fair value in terms of the price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Company’s debt is estimated based upon market interest rates and entities with similar credit risk. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the debt would be deemed to be Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the terms and covenants of its debt arrangements.

SPV Asset Facility

On March 28, 2016, Crescent Capital BDC Funding, LLC (“CCAP SPV”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CCAP, entered into a loan and security agreement, as amended from time to time (the “SPV Asset Facility”), with the Company as the collateral manager, seller and equityholder, CCAP SPV as the borrower, the banks and other financial institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as administrative agent, collateral agent, and lender. CCAP SPV is consolidated into the Company’s financial statements and no gain or loss is recognized from transfer of assets to and from CCAP SPV.

The maximum commitment amount under the SPV Asset Facility is $350,000 and may be increased with the consent of Wells Fargo or reduced upon request of the Company. Proceeds of the advances under the SPV Asset Facility may be used to acquire portfolio investments, to make distributions to the Company in accordance with the SPV Asset Facility, and to pay related expenses. The maturity date is the earlier of (a) the date the Borrower voluntarily reduces the commitments to zero, (b) June 22, 2026 and (c) the date upon which Wells Fargo declares the obligations due and payable after the occurrence of an Event of Default. Borrowings under the SPV Asset Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin with no LIBOR floor. The margin is between 1.65% and 2.10% as determined by the proportion of liquid and illiquid loans pledged to the SPV Asset Facility. The Company pays unused facility fees of 0.50% per annum on committed but undrawn amounts under the SPV Asset Facility. The unused facility fee rate may vary based on the utilization. The SPV Asset Facility includes customary covenants, including certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, as well as usual and customary events of default for revolving credit facilities of this nature. The facility size is subject to availability under the borrowing base, which is based on the amount of CCAP SPV’s assets from time to time, and satisfaction of certain conditions, including certain concentration limits.

Costs incurred in connection with obtaining the SPV Asset Facility were recorded as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the life of the SPV Asset Facility on an effective yield basis. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, deferred financing costs related to the SPV Asset Facility were $3,024 and $2,540, respectively, and were netted against debt outstanding on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Corporate Revolving Facility

On August 20, 2019, the Company entered into the “Corporate Revolving Facility” with Ally Bank, as Administrative Agent and Arranger. Proceeds of the advances under the Revolving Credit Agreement may be used to acquire portfolio investments, to make distributions to the Company in accordance with the Revolving Credit Agreement and to pay related expenses. The maximum principal amount of the Corporate Revolving Facility is $200,000, subject to availability under the borrowing base.

Borrowings under the Corporate Revolving Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a 2.35% with no LIBOR floor. The Company pays unused facility fees of 0.50% per annum on committed but undrawn amounts under the Corporate Revolving Facility. The unused facility fee rate may vary based on the utilization. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. Any amounts borrowed under the Corporate Revolving Facility, and all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable, on August 20, 2024.

Costs incurred in connection with obtaining the Corporate Revolving Facility have been recorded as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the life of the Corporate Revolving Facility on an effective yield basis. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, deferred financing costs related to the Corporate Revolving Facility were $1,104 and $1,360, respectively, and were netted against debt outstanding on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

2023 Unsecured Notes

Note 7. Derivatives

The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to help mitigate the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help mitigate its counterparty risk, the Company may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or a similar agreement with its derivative counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Company and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including foreign currency forward contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Company and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is included under restricted cash and cash equivalents on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $1,210 and $0, respectively, has been pledged to cover obligations of the Company. The Company minimizes counterparty credit risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that they believe to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. All of the forward contracts qualify as Level 2 financial instruments.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 the Company’s average USD notional exposure to foreign currency forward contracts was $43,311 and $31,433, respectively.

The following table sets forth the Company’s net exposure to foreign currency forward contracts that are subject to ISDA Master Agreements or similar agreements as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Note 8. Commitments, Contingencies and Indemnifications

The Company’s investment portfolio may contain investments that are in the form of lines of credit or unfunded commitments, which require the Company to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying agreements. Unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not reflected on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These commitments are subject to the same underwriting and ongoing portfolio maintenance as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that the Company holds. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had aggregated unfunded commitments totaling $126,269 and $80,837 including foreign denominated commitments converted to USD at the balance sheet date, respectively, under loan and financing agreements.

Commitments are generally subject to borrowers meeting certain criteria such as compliance with covenants and certain operational metrics. These amounts may remain outstanding until the commitment period of an applicable loan expires, which may be shorter than its maturity.

(2)

Unfunded commitments denominated in currencies other than USD have been converted to USD using the applicable foreign currency exchange rate as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company believes that there is sufficient assets and liquidity to adequately cover future obligations under unfunded commitments. The cash and restricted cash balances, availability under the credit facilities and ongoing investment realizations are expected to provide sufficient liquidity. In addition, broadly syndicated loans in the portfolio could be sold over a relatively short period to generate liquidity.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts which provide a variety of representations and warranties, and that provide general indemnifications. Such contracts include those with certain service providers, brokers and trading counterparties. Any exposure to the Company under these arrangements is unknown as it would involve future claims that may be made against the Company; however, based on the Company’s experience, the risk of loss is remote and no such claims are expected to occur. As such, the Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnifications.

Note 9. Stockholders’ Equity

The Company authorized 200,000,000 shares of its common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. The Company has authorized 10,000 shares of its preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. To date, no shares of preferred stock have been issued.

Note 10. Earnings Per Share

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 260 – Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”), basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there are no dilutive shares.

Note 13. Alcentra Acquisition

On August 12, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended on September 27, 2019, the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire Alcentra Capital Corporation (“Alcentra Capital”) in a cash and stock transaction (the “Alcentra Acquisition”).

In connection with the Alcentra Acquisition, which was completed on January 31, 2020, each share of Alcentra Capital common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Alcentra Acquisition was converted into the right to receive from the Company, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, (a) approximately $1.50 per share in cash consideration less $0.80 per share spillover dividend declared by Alcentra Capital, and (b) stock consideration at the fixed exchange ratio of 0.4041 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company’s common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”) (and, if applicable, cash in lieu of fractional shares of the Company’s common stock). The Exchange Ratio was fixed on the date of the Merger Agreement, and was not subject to adjustment based on changes in the trading price of Alcentra Capital’s common stock before the closing of the Alcentra Acquisition. Based on the number of shares of Alcentra Capital common stock outstanding on the date of the merger, approximately 5,203,016 of the Company’s shares of common stock were exchanged for approximately 12,875,566 outstanding shares of Alcentra Capital common stock, subject to adjustment in certain limited circumstances. Upon closing of the Alcentra Acquisition, all unfunded commitments of stockholders subscribing in the private offering were terminated.

Additionally, on August 12, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with the Adviser in connection with the Alcentra Acquisition. Under the terms of the Transaction Support Agreement, in connection with the consummation of the Alcentra Acquisition the Adviser (a) provided cash consideration of approximately $1.68 per share of Alcentra Capital common stock, payable to Alcentra Capital stockholders in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement at closing, (b) entered into an amendment to the Investment Advisory Agreement to (i) permanently reduce the management fee from 1.5% to 1.25%, (ii) increase the incentive fee hurdle from 6% to 7% annualized, (iii) waive a portion of the management fee from February 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021 after the transaction so that only 0.75% shall be charged for such time period, and (iv) waive the income based portion of the incentive fee from February 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021 after the transaction and (c) fund up to $1,419 of expenses that the Company incurs in connection with completing the Alcentra Acquisition.

The merger of Alcentra Capital with and into Crescent Capital BDC was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC 805-50, Business Combinations-Related Issues. Accordingly, transaction expenses of $7,250, net of Adviser transaction support of $1,419, were included in total consideration paid, and no goodwill was recognized.

In evaluating whether the merger was an asset acquisition or business combination, the Company considered (i) whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets; and (ii) whether the set of acquired assets included at least one substantive process. Since the acquired assets consisted of similar classes of financial assets, and since the Company did not acquire an organized workforce or other substantive processes in the transaction, it was deemed to be an asset acquisition.

Total consideration paid by the Company, including transaction costs related to the merger, of $118,256 was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based upon their relative fair values as of the closing date, subject to the limitation that certain “non-qualifying” assets, including financial instruments, could not be assigned an amount greater than their fair values. As a result of this limitation, total consideration paid by the Company exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired by $3,825, which has been presented as a realized loss in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company estimated the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with ASC 820; the methodologies utilized to make these estimates were consistent with those used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its own assets and liabilities.

Note 14. Stock Repurchase Program

On January 31, 2020, the Company entered into a $20,000 repurchase plan which allowed it to purchase shares in the open market any time the Company’s common stock trades below ninety percent (90%) of its most recently disclosed net asset value per share. The plan was subject to compliance with the Company’s liquidity, covenant, leverage and regulatory requirements. Pursuant to the terms of the repurchase plan, repurchases began on March 2, 2020. On April 9, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the termination of the Company’s stock repurchase program.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This discussion also should be read in conjunction with the “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements” set forth on page 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In this report, “we,” “us,” “our” and “Company” refer to Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

OVERVIEW

We are a specialty finance company focused on lending to middle-market companies. We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 5, 2015 and on January 30, 2020, we changed our state of incorporation from the State of Delaware to the State of Maryland. We have elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, we have elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As such, we are required to comply with various regulatory requirements, such as the requirement to invest at least 70% of our assets in “qualifying assets,” source of income limitations, asset diversification requirements, and the requirement to distribute annually at least 90% of our taxable income and tax-exempt interest.

On January 31, 2020, we completed a transaction to acquire Alcentra Capital Corporation in a cash and stock transaction (the “Alcentra Acquisition”). We were listed and began trading on the NASDAQ stock exchange on February 3, 2020.

We are managed by Crescent Cap Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC under the 1940 Act. CCAP Administration, LLC (the “Administrator”), provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate. Company management consists of investment and administrative professionals from the Adviser and Administrator along with our Board. The Adviser directs and executes our investment operations and capital raising activities subject to oversight from the Board, which sets our broad policies. The Board has delegated investment management of our investment assets to the Adviser. The Board consists of five directors, four of whom are independent.

Our investment objective is to maximize the total return to our stockholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation through debt and related equity investments. We invest primarily in secured debt (including first lien, unitranche first lien and second-lien debt) and unsecured debt (including mezzanine and subordinated debt), as well as related equity securities of private U.S. middle-market companies. We may purchase interests in loans or make debt investments, either (i) directly from our target companies as primary market or private credit investments (i.e., private credit transactions), or (ii) primary or secondary market bank loan or high yield transactions in the broadly syndicated “over-the-counter” market (i.e., broadly syndicated loans and bonds). Although our focus is to invest in less liquid private credit transactions, we may from time to time invest in more liquid broadly syndicated loans to complement our private credit transactions.

“First lien” investments are senior loans on a lien basis to other liabilities in the issuer’s capital structure that have the benefit of a first-priority security interest in assets of the issuer. The security interest ranks above the security interest of any second-lien lenders in those assets.

“Unitranche first lien” investments are loans that may extend deeper in a company’s capital structure than traditional first lien debt and may provide for a waterfall of cash flow priority among different lenders in the unitranche loan. In certain instances, we may find another lender to provide the “first out” portion of such loan and retain the “last out” portion of such loan, in which case, the “first out” portion of the loan would generally receive priority with respect to payment of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder over the “last out” portion that we would continue to hold. In exchange for the greater risk of loss, the “last out” portion earns a higher interest rate.

“Second lien” investments are loans with a second priority lien on all existing and future assets of the portfolio company. The security interest ranks below the security interests of any first lien and unitranche first lien lenders in those assets.

“Unsecured debt” investments are loans that generally rank senior to a borrower’s equity securities and junior in right of payment to such borrower’s other senior indebtedness.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. The critical accounting policies should be read in connection with our risk factors as disclosed herein.

 

62


Table of Contents

For a description of our critical accounting policies, see Note 2 “Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included in this report. We consider the most significant accounting policies to be those related to our Valuation of Portfolio Investments, Revenue Recognition, Non-Accrual Investments, Distribution Policy, and Income Taxes.

COMPONENTS OF OPERATIONS

Investments

We expect our investment activity to vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, the general economic environment, the amount of capital we have available to us, the level of merger and acquisition activity for middle-market companies, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to such companies and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make. In addition, as part of our risk strategy on investments, we may reduce certain levels of investments through partial sales or syndication to additional investors.

We may not invest in any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act, unless, at the time the investments are made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, “eligible portfolio companies” include certain companies that do not have any securities listed on a national securities exchange and public companies whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange but whose market capitalization is less than $250 million.

The Investment Adviser

Our investment activities are managed by the Adviser, which is responsible for originating prospective investments, conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring our investments and monitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. The Adviser has entered into a resource sharing agreement with Crescent Capital Group LP (“Crescent”), pursuant to which Crescent provides the Adviser with experienced investment professionals (including the members of the Adviser’s investment committee) and access to Crescent’s resources so as to enable the Adviser to fulfill its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement. Through the resource sharing agreement, the Adviser intends to capitalize on the deal origination, credit underwriting, due diligence, investment structuring, execution, portfolio management and monitoring experience of Crescent’s investment professionals. On January 5, 2021, Sun Life Financial Inc. (together with its subsidiaries and joint ventures, “Sun Life”) acquired a majority interest in Crescent (the “Sun Life Transaction”). There were no changes to our investment objective, strategies and process or to the Crescent team responsible for the investment operations as a result of the Sun Life Transaction.

Revenues

We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest income on debt investments, capital gains and distributions, if any, on equity securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. Certain investments may have contractual PIK interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable. We also generate revenue in the form of commitment or origination fees. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts into income over the life of the loan using the effective yield method.

Dividend income from common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies. Dividend income from preferred equity securities is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected.

We may receive other income, which may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, underwriting, and arranger fees associated with our investment activities as well as any fees for managerial assistance services rendered to the portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of management fees and incentive fees to the Adviser under the Investment Advisory Agreement, as amended, our allocable portion of overhead expenses under the administration agreement with our Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”), operating costs associated with our sub-administration agreement and other operating costs described below. The management and incentive fees compensate the Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, including:

 

   

the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;

 

   

fidelity bond, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and other insurance premiums;

 

   

fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs;

independent directors’ fees and expenses;

 

   

administration fees and expenses, if any, payable under the Administration Agreement (including payments based upon our allocable portion of the Administrator’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, rent and the allocable portion of the cost of certain professional services provided to us, including but not limited to, our accounting professionals, our legal counsel and compliance professionals);

 

   

U.S. federal, state and local taxes;

 

   

the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of shares of our common stock and other securities;

 

   

fees payable to third parties relating to making investments, including out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence and reviews of prospective investments;

 

   

out-of-pocket fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;

 

   

federal and state registration fees and any stock exchange listing fees;

 

   

brokerage commissions;

 

   

costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and other applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws;

 

   

debt service and other costs of borrowings or other financing arrangements; and

 

   

all other expenses reasonably incurred by us in connection with making investments and administering our business.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.

Leverage

Our financing facilities allow us to borrow money and lever our investment portfolio, subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act, with the objective of increasing our yield. This is known as “leverage” and could increase or decrease returns to our stockholders. The use of leverage involves significant risks.

Prior to the Small Business Credit Availability Act being signed into law, a BDC generally was not permitted to incur indebtedness unless immediately after such borrowing it has an asset coverage for total borrowings of at least 200%. The Small Business Credit Availability Act, signed into law on March 23, 2018, contains a provision that grants a BDC the option, subject to certain conditions and disclosure obligations, to reduce the asset coverage requirement to 150%. On March 3, 2020, our Board of Directors approved, and on May 4, 2020, at an annual meeting of our stockholders, our stockholders approved, the application to us of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act. The application of the reduced asset coverage requirement, which became effective on May 4, 2020, permits us, provided certain requirements are satisfied, to double the maximum amount of leverage that it is permitted to incur by reducing the asset coverage requirement applicable to us from 200% to 150% (i.e., we are permitted to borrow up to two dollars for every dollar we have in assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities issued by us) in order to issue senior securities. Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered borrowings for these purposes. The amount of leverage that we employ depends on our Adviser’s and our Board’s assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing.

PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

We seek to create a broad and diversified portfolio that generally includes senior secured first lien, unitranche, senior secured second lien, unsecured loans and minority equity securities of U.S. middle market companies. The size of our individual investments varies proportionately with the size of our capital base. We generally invest in securities that have been rated below investment grade by independent rating agencies or that would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. These securities have speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. In addition, many of our debt investments have floating interest rates that reset on a periodic basis and typically do not fully pay down principal prior to maturity.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

As of June 30, 2021, we had investments in two portfolio companies with three investment positions on non-accrual status, which represented 1.6% and 1.2% of the total debt investments at cost and fair value, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, we had investments in two portfolio companies with three investment positions on non-accrual status, which represented 1.7% and 1.3% of the total debt investments at cost and fair value, respectively. The remaining debt investments were performing and current on their interest payments as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The Adviser monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. The Adviser monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if it is meeting its business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action for each company. The Adviser has a number of methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:

 

   

assessment of success of the portfolio company in adhering to its business plan and compliance with covenants;

 

   

review of monthly and quarterly financial statements and financial projections for portfolio companies.

 

   

contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor, to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments;

 

   

comparisons to other companies in the industry; and

 

   

attendance and participation in board meetings.

As part of the monitoring process, the Adviser regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our investments and, on a quarterly basis, grades each investment on a risk scale of 1 to 5. Risk assessment is not standardized in our industry and our risk assessment may not be comparable to ones used by our competitors. Our assessment is based on the following categories:

 

1

Involves the least amount of risk in our portfolio. The investment/borrower is performing above expectations since investment, and the trends and risk factors are generally favorable, which may include the financial performance of the borrower or a potential exit.

 

2

Involves an acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of investment. The investment/borrower is generally performing as expected, and the risk factors are neutral to favorable.

 

3

Involves an investment/borrower performing below expectations and indicates that the investment’s risk has increased somewhat since investment. The borrower’s loan payments are generally not past due and more likely than not the borrower will remain in compliance with debt covenants. An investment rating of 3 requires closer monitoring.

 

66


Table of Contents
4

Involves an investment/borrower performing materially below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has increased materially since investment. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments may be past due (but generally not more than 180 days past due). Placing loans on non-accrual status should be considered for investments rated 4.

 

5

Involves an investment/borrower performing substantially below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has substantially increased since investment. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Loans rated 5 are not anticipated to be repaid in full and the fair market values of the loans are generally reduced to the anticipated recovery amounts. Loans with an investment rating of 5 are generally placed on non-accrual status.

The following table shows the composition of our portfolio on the 1 to 5 investment performance rating scale as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Investment performance ratings are accurate only as of those dates and may change due to subsequent developments relating to a portfolio company’s business or financial condition, market conditions or developments, and other factors.

Interest income, which includes amortization of upfront fees, increased from $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $21.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, due to higher accelerated accretion of OID and organic net deployment. Included in interest from investments for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are $2.3 million and $0.3 million of accelerated accretion of OID related to paydown activity, respectively.

Dividend income increased from $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to a one-time dividend distribution from a portfolio company. Other income which includes consent, waiver, amendment, agency, underwriting and arranger fees associated with our investment activities decreased from $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest income, which includes amortization of upfront fees, increased from $34.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $40.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, due to organic net deployment and higher accelerated accretion of OID related to paydown activity. Included in interest from investments for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are $3.1 million and $1.3 million of accelerated accretion of OID, respectively.

Dividend income increased from $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to a one-time dividend distribution from a portfolio company.

Interest and other debt financing costs

Interest and other debt financing costs include interest, amortization of deferred financing costs including upfront commitment fees and unused fees on our credit facilities. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 interest and other debt financing costs were $4.6 million and $3.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 interest and other debt financing costs were $8.8 million and $8.0 million, respectively. The increase for both periods was due to a higher weighted average debt outstanding and higher weighted average cost of debt.

Base Management Fees

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we incurred management fees of $2.0 million and $1.7 million, respectively, which are net of waived amounts of $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we incurred management fees of $4.0 million and $3.1 million, respectively, which are net of waived amounts of $2.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The increase in net management fees for both three and six month periods was driven by growing assets under management.

The Adviser has voluntarily waived its right to receive management fees on our investments in GACP II LP and WhiteHawk III Onshore Fund LP for any period in which these investments remain in the investment portfolio.

Incentive Fees

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 we incurred income based incentive fees of $2.6 million and $2.3 million, of which $2.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively, were waived. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 we incurred income based incentive fees of $4.9 million and $4.2 million, of which $4.9 million and $4.2 million, respectively, were waived.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 we accrued $3.8 million and $0, respectively, of capital gains based incentive fees. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 we accrued $5.4 million and $0, respectively, of capital gains based incentive fees. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $5.4 million and $0, respectively, was accrued and unpaid. The increase in incentive fees on cumulative unrealized capital appreciation was attributable to the inception to date performance of the investment portfolio.

Professional Fees and Other General and Administrative Expenses

Professional fees generally include expenses from independent auditors, tax advisors, legal counsel and third party valuation agents. Other general and administrative expenses generally include overhead and staffing costs allocated from the Administrator, insurance premiums, sub-administration expenses and miscellaneous administrative costs associated with our operations and investment activity.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, professional fees were $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, professional fees were $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, other general and administrative expenses were $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, other general and administrative expenses were $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Income and Excise Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we expensed income and excise taxes of $1.1 million and $0.1 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we expensed income and excise taxes of $1.2 million and $0.4 million. The increase in income and excise tax was attributable to taxes due on allocated taxable income from an equity investment held in a blocker. We accrued an offsetting tax distribution, which was declared by the portfolio company, under dividend income.

Net Investment Income

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, GAAP net investment income was $11.0 million or $0.39 per share and $13.0 million or $0.46 per share, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, GAAP net investment income was $22.4 million or $0.80 per share and $24.5 million or $0.90 per share, respectively. The decrease was due to accrued capital gains based incentive fees recorded during current year.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, adjusted net investment income was $14.8 million or $0.53 per share and $13.0 million or $0.46 per share, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, adjusted net investment income was $27.8 million or $0.99 per share and $24.5 million or $0.90 per share, respectively. The increase was due to a higher investment income from a growing investment portfolio and higher accelerated amortization income.

The following table provides a reconciliation of net investment income (the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure) to adjusted net investment income for the periods presented:

On a supplemental basis, we are disclosing adjusted net investment income and per share adjusted net investment income, each of which is a financial measure that is calculated and presented on a basis of methodology other than in accordance with U.S. GAAP (“non-GAAP”). Adjusted net investment income represents net investment income, excluding capital gains incentive fees. We use this non-GAAP financial measure internally to analyze and evaluate financial results and performance and believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing results and trends without giving effect to capital gains incentive fees. The Company’s investment advisory agreement provides that a capital gains-based incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital appreciation) to the extent such realized capital gains exceed realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis. We believe that adjusted net investment income is a useful performance measure because it reflects the net investment income produced on the Company’s investments during a period without giving effect to any changes in the value of such investments and any related capital gains incentive fees between periods. The presentation of adjusted net investment income is not intended to be a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation.

Net Realized and Unrealized Gains and Losses

We value our portfolio investments quarterly and any changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, net realized gains (losses) and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investment portfolio were comprised of the following:

Hedging

We may, but are not required to, enter into interest rate, foreign exchange or other derivative agreements to hedge interest rate, currency, credit or other risks. Generally, we do not intend to enter into any such derivative agreements for speculative purposes. Any derivative agreements entered into for speculative purposes are not expected to be material to our business or results of operations. These hedging activities, which are in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, may include the use of various instruments, including futures, options and forward contracts. We bear the costs incurred in connection with entering into, administering and settling any such derivative contracts. There can be no assurance any hedging strategy we employ will be successful.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our average U.S. Dollar notional exposure to foreign currency forward contracts were $43.3 million and $31.4 million, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The primary uses of our cash and cash equivalents are for (1) investments in portfolio companies and other investments; (2) the cost of operations (including paying the Adviser); (3) debt service, repayment, and other financing costs; and (4) cash distributions to the holders of our common stock. We expect to generate additional liquidity from (1) future offerings of securities, (2) future borrowings and (3) cash flows from operations.

As of June 30, 2021, we had $25.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents and $220.1 million of undrawn capacity on our senior revolving credit and special purpose vehicle asset facilities, subject to borrowing base and other limitations. As of June 30, 2021, the undrawn capacity under our facilities is in excess of our unfunded commitments.

As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with our asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act. In addition, we were in compliance with all the financial covenant requirements of our credit facilities as of June 30, 2021. However, any increase in realized losses or unrealized depreciation of our investment portfolio or significant reductions in our net asset value as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, increase the risk of breaching the relevant covenants requirements. Any breach of these requirements may adversely affect the access to sufficient debt and equity capital.

Capital Share Activity

Between June 26, 2015, commencement of operations, and January 31, 2020, the date of Alcentra Acquisition, we entered into subscription agreements (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”) with several investors, including Crescent, providing for the private placement of our common shares. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, between June 26, 2015 and January 31, 2020, we issued 23,127,335 common shares for aggregate proceeds of $456.3 million, of which $10.0 million was from Crescent. Proceeds from the issuances were used to fund our investing activities and for other general corporate purposes. Subsequently, on January 31, 2020, we issued 5,203,016 shares in connection with the Alcentra Acquisition. Upon closing of the Alcentra Acquisition, all unfunded commitments of stockholders subscribing in the private offering were terminated.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 we issued no common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we issued 30,128 shares of our common stock to investors who have opted into our dividend reinvestment plan for proceeds of $0.6 million.

SPV Asset Facility

On March 28, 2016, Crescent Capital BDC Funding, LLC (“CCAP SPV”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CCAP, entered into a loan and security agreement, as amended from time to time (the “SPV Asset Facility”) with us as the collateral manager, seller and equity holder, CCAP SPV as the borrower, the banks and other financial institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as administrative agent, collateral agent, and lender. We consolidate CCAP SPV in our consolidated financial statements and no gain or loss is recognized from the transfer of assets to and from CCAP SPV.

The maximum commitment amount under the SPV Asset Facility is $350 million, and may be increased with the consent of Wells Fargo or reduced upon our request. Proceeds of the advances under the SPV Asset Facility may be used to acquire portfolio investments, to make distributions to us in accordance with the SPV Asset Facility, and to pay related expenses. The maturity date is the earlier of (a) the date the borrower voluntarily reduces the commitments to zero, (b) June 22, 2026 and (c) the date upon which Wells Fargo declares the obligations due and payable after the occurrence of an Event of Default. Borrowings under the SPV Asset Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin with no LIBOR floor. The margin is between 1.65% and 2.10% as determined by the proportion of liquid and illiquid loans pledged to the SPV Asset Facility. We pay unused facility fees of 0.50% per annum on committed but undrawn amounts under the SPV Asset Facility. The unused facility fee rate may vary based on the utilization. The SPV Asset Facility includes customary covenants, including certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, as well as usual and customary events of default for revolving credit facilities of this nature.

The facility size is subject to availability under the borrowing base, which is based on the amount of CCAP SPV’s assets from time to time, and satisfaction of certain conditions, including an asset coverage test and certain concentration limits.

Corporate Revolving Facility

On August 20, 2019, we entered into the “Corporate Revolving Facility” with Ally Bank, as Administrative Agent and Arranger. Proceeds of the advances under the Revolving Credit Agreement may be used to acquire portfolio investments, to make distributions to us in accordance with the Revolving Credit Agreement and to pay related expenses. The maximum principal amount of the Corporate Revolving Facility is $200 million, subject to availability under the borrowing base.

Borrowings under the Corporate Revolving Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a 2.35% margin with no LIBOR floor. We pay unused facility fees of 0.50% per annum on committed but undrawn amounts under the Corporate Revolving Facility. The unused facility fee rate may vary based on the utilization. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. Any amounts borrowed under the Corporate Revolving Facility, and all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable, on August 20, 2024.

2023 Unsecured Notes

On July 30, 2020, we completed a private offering of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.95% senior unsecured notes due July 30, 2023 (the “2023 Unsecured Notes”). The 2023 Unsecured Notes were issued in two $25.0 million issuances on July 30, 2020 and October 28, 2020.

The 2023 Unsecured Notes will mature on July 30, 2023 and may be redeemed in whole or in part, at our option, at any time or from time to time at par plus a “make-whole” premium, if applicable. Interest on the 2023 Unsecured Notes is due and payable semiannually in arrears on January 30th and July 30th of each year. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with the terms of the note purchase agreement governing the 2023 Unsecured Notes.

2026 Unsecured Notes

On February 17, 2021, we completed a private offering of $135,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.00% senior unsecured notes due February 17, 2026 (the “2026 Unsecured Notes”). The initial issuance of $50,000 of 2026 Unsecured Notes closed February 17, 2021. The issuance of the remaining $85,000 of 2026 Unsecured Notes closed on May 5, 2021.

The 2026 Unsecured Notes will mature on February 17, 2026 and may be redeemed in whole or in part, at our option, at any time or from time to time at par plus a “make-whole” premium, if applicable. Interest on the 2026 Unsecured Notes is due and payable semiannually in arrears on February 17th and August 17th of each year. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with the terms of the note purchase agreement governing the 2026 Unsecured Notes.

InterNotes®

On January 31, 2020, in connection with the Alcentra Acquisition, we assumed direct unsecured fixed interest rate obligations or “InterNotes®”. The InterNotes® bore interest at fixed interest rates ranging between 6.25% and 6.75% and offered a variety of maturities ranging between February 15, 2021 and April 15, 2022. We redeemed or paid down the remaining $16.4 million of InterNotes® during the first quarter of 2021.

To the extent we determine that additional capital would allow us to take advantage of additional investment opportunities, if the market for debt financing presents attractively priced opportunities, or if our Board otherwise determines that leveraging our portfolio would be in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders, we may enter into new debt financing opportunities in addition to our existing debt. The pricing and other terms of any such opportunities would depend upon market conditions and the performance of our business, among other factors.

In accordance with applicable SEC staff guidance and interpretations, effective May 5, 2020 with shareholder approval, we, as a BDC, are permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met), rather than 200%, as previously required. Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered borrowings for these purposes. The amount of leverage that we employ depends on our Adviser’s and our Board’s assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our asset coverage ratio was 214% and 217%, respectively. We may also refinance or repay any of our indebtedness at any time based on our financial condition and market conditions. See Note 6. Debt to our consolidated financial statements for more detail on the debt facilities.

STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On January 31, 2020, we entered into a $20.0 million repurchase plan which allowed us to purchase shares in the open market any time our common stock traded below 90% of the most recently disclosed net asset value per share. The plan was subject to compliance with our liquidity, covenant, leverage and regulatory requirements. Pursuant to the terms of the repurchase plan, repurchases began on March 2, 2020. On April 9, 2020, our Board of Directors unanimously approved the termination of the stock repurchase program.

There was no stock repurchased for the six months ended June 30, 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased 192,415 shares at an average price per share, including commissions, of $11.48.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Our investment portfolio may contain investments that are in the form of lines of credit or unfunded commitments which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying agreements. Unfunded commitments to provide funds to portfolio companies are not reflected on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These commitments are subject to the same underwriting and ongoing portfolio maintenance as are the on-balance sheet financial instruments that we hold. Since these commitments may expire without being drawn, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had aggregate unfunded commitments totaling $127.9 million and $80.8 million, respectively.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

On August 6, 2021, our Board of Directors declared a regular cash dividend of $0.41 per share, which will be paid on October 15, 2021 to stockholders of record as of September 30, 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk, interest rate risk and currency risk.

Valuation Risk

We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, in illiquid debt and equity securities of private companies. These investments will generally not have a readily available market price, and we will value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material. See Note 2. Summary of Significant Account Policies to our consolidated financial statements for more details on estimates and judgments made by us in connection with the valuation of our investments.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. We also fund a portion of our investments with borrowings and our net investment income will be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. Accordingly, 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.

We regularly measure our exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate-sensitive assets to our interest rate-sensitive liabilities. Based on that review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates.

As of June 30, 2021, 99.6% of the investments at fair value in our portfolio were at variable rates, subject to interest rate floors. The SPV Asset Facility and Corporate Revolving Facility also bear interest at variable rates.

Assuming that our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2021 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors for floating rate instruments):

     (0.2      (0.5      0.3  

Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of our existing sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for changes in the credit market, credit quality, the size and composition of the assets in our portfolio and other business developments that could affect our net income. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis above.

We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps, futures, options and forward contracts. While hedging activities may mitigate our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates, certain hedging transactions that we may enter into in the future, such as interest rate swap agreements, may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio investments.

Table of Contents

Currency Risk

From time to time, we may make investments that are denominated in a foreign currency. These investments are converted into U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date, exposing us to movements in foreign exchange rates. We may employ hedging techniques to minimize these risks, but we cannot assure you that such strategies will be effective or without risk to us. We may seek to utilize instruments such as, but not limited to, forward contracts to seek to hedge against fluctuations in the relative values of our portfolio positions from changes in currency exchange rates. To the extent the loan or investment is based on a floating rate, we may seek to utilize interest rate derivatives to hedge our exposure to changes in the associated rate. As of June 30, 2021, we had £9.0 million, €17.2 million and CAD $20.1 million notional exposure to foreign currency forward contracts related to investments totaling £7.9 million, €17.9 million and CAD $21.0 million at par.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act 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 principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our consolidated financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements would be prevented or detected.

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2021.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are party to certain lawsuits in the normal course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under loans to or other contracts with our portfolio companies. Furthermore, third parties may try to seek to impose liability on us in connection with our activities or the activities of our portfolio companies. While the outcome of any such legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these legal proceedings will materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Stock Repurchase Program

On January 31, 2020, we entered into a $20.0 million repurchase plan, which allowed us to purchase shares in the open market any time our common stock traded below 90% of the most recently disclosed net asset value per share. The plan was subject to compliance with our liquidity, covenant, leverage and regulatory requirements. Pursuant to the terms of the repurchase plan, repurchases began on March 2, 2020. We have provided our stockholders with notice of our ability to repurchase shares of our common stock in accordance with 1940 Act requirements. We have retired all such shares of common stock that we purchased in connection with the stock repurchase program. On April 9, 2020, our Board of Directors unanimously approved the termination of our stock repurchase program.

Affiliate Purchase Program

An entity owned by certain officers of Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. and employees and affiliates of Crescent has implemented a stock purchase program (the “affiliate purchase program”). The affiliate purchase program, which totals $1.2 million in commitments, commenced on April 12, 2021, and is expected to be in effect through March 31, 2022, unless extended, or until the aggregate approved purchase amount has been expended. The affiliate purchase program is expected to make open-market purchases of shares of our common stock at then-current market prices at any time shares trade at or below 95% of the most recently disclosed net asset value per share, as set forth in the affiliate purchase program. From April 12, 2021 through June 30, 2021, the affiliate purchase program purchased 21,072 shares of our common stock at an average price per share (inclusive of commissions paid) of $18.56 (totaling $0.4 million). The affiliate purchase program is the third such plan implemented on behalf of certain officers of Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. and affiliates and employees of Crescent since the public listing, following the cumulative purchase of approximately $4.9 million of our common stock pursuant to the first two plans. Purchases of our common stock pursuant to the affiliate purchase program will be subject to certain conditions as set forth in such program and will be conducted in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and other applicable securities laws and regulations that set certain restrictions on the method, timing, price, and volume of stock purchases.
