Alcentra Capital Corporation Announces Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

New York, NY, November 5, 2019 (PRNewswire) -- Alcentra Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: ABDC) (the "Company"), a provider of debt financing solutions to middle-market companies based primarily in the United States, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2019.

Third Quarter 2019 Highlights

Total investment income of $5.6 million

Net investment income of $1.7 million, or $0.13 per share

Received proceeds from repayments, loan dispositions and amortization on investments of approximately $2.8 million

Net asset value of $141.4 million, or $10.98 per share

Weighted average debt portfolio yield of approximately 10.6%

Suhail A. Shaikh, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, “We were pleased with the performance of our investments, despite the volatility in leveraged finance markets. Our focus has been to maintain the quality of the portfolio until the announced merger with Crescent Capital BDC is consummated. While expenses remained elevated largely due to the announced merger, NAV per share was relatively flat from the second quarter due to the voluntary waiver by our manager, Alcentra NY, LLC, of the entire management fee owed to it.”

As previously announced, on August 12, 2019, the Company entered into the Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended on September 27, 2019, the “Merger Agreement”), with Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. (“Crescent Capital BDC”) and the other parties thereto, pursuant to which Crescent Capital BDC (following its reincorporation by merger into the State of Maryland; such Maryland entity referred to as “Crescent Capital Maryland BDC”) will acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock in a stock and cash transaction through a series of mergers (the “Mergers”). This transaction is the result of the Company’s previously announced review of strategic alternatives led by an independent director committee (the “Committee of Independent Directors”) of its board of directors, and has been unanimously approved by the Committee of Independent Directors, the independent directors of Crescent Capital BDC and the boards of directors of both companies.

Under the terms of the transaction, in exchange for approximately 12.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock, the Company’s stockholders will receive approximately (i) 5.2 million shares of Crescent Capital Maryland BDC common stock (based on a fixed exchange ratio of 0.4041 shares of Crescent Capital Maryland BDC common stock per share of Company common stock); (ii) $19.3 million in cash, or $1.5023 per share, from Crescent Capital Maryland BDC (less the amount of any special dividends declared by the Company after the date of the Merger Agreement to comply with applicable tax requirements (excluding regular quarterly dividends up to a maximum amount of $0.18 per share of the Company’s common stock)); and (iii) $21.6 million in cash, or $1.6761 per share, from Crescent Cap Advisors, LLC (“Crescent Cap Advisors”), the external investment adviser of Crescent Capital BDC (as may be adjusted pursuant to the Merger Agreement). The exchange ratio was fixed on the date of the Merger Agreement and is generally not subject to adjustment, including for changes in the trading price of the Company’s common stock before the closing of the Mergers.

Crescent Capital Maryland BDC is expected to apply to have its common stock listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol “CCAP,” with such listing expected to be effective as of the closing date of the Mergers. Upon completion of the Mergers, the current directors and officers of Crescent Capital BDC are expected to continue in their current positions in Crescent Capital Maryland BDC, and Crescent Cap Advisors will externally manage Crescent Capital Maryland BDC after implementing the following changes to the Crescent Capital BDC investment advisory agreement: (1) reduce the base management fee from 1.50% to 1.25%, (2) waive a portion of the base management fee for the eighteen-month period following the Mergers so that only 0.75% will be charged for such time period, (3) waive the income-based portion of the incentive fee for the eighteen-month period following the Mergers and (4) increase the hurdle rate under the income-based portion of the incentive fee from 1.50% to 1.75% per quarter.

As of November 1, 2019, over two-thirds of Crescent Capital BDC’s stockholders have agreed to vote their shares in favor of the Mergers and related transactions. Additionally, Crescent Capital BDC stockholders (other than those Company stockholders receiving Crescent Capital BDC shares in connection with the transaction) generally will be restricted from trading their shares for at least six months following the closing of the transaction, subject to a modified lock-up schedule thereafter for an additional six months.

Consummation of the Mergers is subject to certain conditions, including, among others, the approvals of the Company’s and Crescent Capital BDC’s stockholders and other customary closing conditions. While there can be no assurance as to the exact timing, or that the Mergers will be completed at all, the Company and Crescent Capital BDC are working to complete the Mergers in the first quarter of 2020.

Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, total investment income was $5.6 million, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million from the $6.6 million of total investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was due to the portfolio rotation of legacy investments to investments more senior in the capital structure of the Company’s portfolio companies, and the associated decrease in weighted-average yields. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, interest and PIK income comprised $5.6 million. Net investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $1.7 million, or $0.13 per share (after a waiver for the entire amount of management fees), as compared to $3.0 million, or $0.22 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, total net expenses (after the waiver of the entire amount of management fees) were $3.9 million, an increase of $0.4 million, or 9.9%, from the $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in total net expenses between periods was due primarily to an increase in general and administrative expenses, which were $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in general and administrative expenses was largely due to an increase in professional fees and directors fees, both primarily relating to the Company’s board of directors' formal review process to evaluate strategic alternatives for the Company and items relating to the Mergers.

The increase in general and administrative expenses was partially offset by a decrease in base management fees and interest and financing expenses between comparable periods. Base management fees were $0.8 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 11.4%, from the $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was due to the lower amount of gross assets outstanding between comparable periods. In addition, during the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company’s investment adviser, Alcentra NY, waived the full $0.8 million of management fees, of which $0.1 million was waived pursuant to the temporary 25 basis point reduction in the base management fee agreed to by Alcentra NY until April 30, 2020, and $0.7 million was voluntarily waived by Alcentra NY in its sole discretion.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, interest and financing expense was $1.7 million, a decrease from $1.9 million for the comparable period due primarily to lower borrowings under the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a net realized gain of $0.1 million and net change in unrealized depreciation from portfolio investments of $0.02 million. As a result, after considering the Company’s provision for taxes on unrealized gains, the Company's net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Portfolio and Investment Activities

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company had no new debt investments or add-on fundings due to the operation of interim operating covenants under the Merger Agreement effective during the pendency of the Mergers. As of September 30, 2019, the fair value of the Company's investment portfolio totaled $218.4 million and consisted of 28 companies and 1 rated debt security in a CLO. The average portfolio investment size on an amortized cost and fair market basis was $7.4 million and $7.2 million, respectively.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had one debt investment (Southern Technical Institute, Inc.) on non-accrual status.

A risk rating of the Company’s portfolio companies is available on the Company's website presentation (https://investors.alcentracapital.com/events-presentations) and in the MD&A section of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2019, the Company had $4.8 million in cash, $28.7 million of borrowings outstanding on its $115.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility and $55.0 million outstanding of Alcentra Capital InterNotes.

Subsequent Events

On October 3, 2019, the Company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.18 per share to stockholders of record as of September 26, 2019.

On October 11, 2019, the Company’s board of directors approved a 2019 fourth quarter dividend of $0.18 per share payable on December 15, 2019 to stockholders of record as of November 30, 2019.

In light of the pending transactions with Crescent Capital BDC, the Company will not hold a conference call to discuss its operating and financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.
