* Fair value as a percentage of net assets
** Date refers to the origination date of the investment

(1)Debt investments are income-producing investments unless an investment is on non-accrual. Common equity, preferred equity, residual values and warrants are non-income-producing.
(2)For each loan, the Company has provided the interest rate in effect on the date presented, as well as the contractual components of that interest rate. In the case of the Company's variable or floating rate loans, the interest rate in effect takes into account the applicable LIBOR in effect on June 30, 2020 or, if higher, the applicable LIBOR floor.
(3)Credit facility has an unfunded commitment in addition to the amounts shown in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. See Note 8 in the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on unfunded commitments.
(4)The cash coupon and/or PIK coupon on the loan is subject to a pricing grid based on certain leverage ratios of the portfolio company.
(5)This investment is owned by HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC, one of the Company's taxable blocker subsidiaries.
(6)Infinite Care LLC ("ICC") is in default under the terms of its credit agreement and was on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2020. ICC was current on its interest payments to the Company through December 31, 2017; however, it failed to repay the Company’s protective loan advances at various dates in the fourth quarter of 2017 as well as throughout 2018, 2019, and through June 30, 2020.  ICC was previously in breach of its minimum EBITDA, minimum fixed charge and total leverage covenants, but these breaches were waived by the Company through December 31, 2017 in connection with its entry into an agreement, dated as of January 13, 2017, with ICC relating thereto.  In October 2017, the Company exercised its rights under a stock pledge of ICC. The Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, HCAP ICC, LLC, to exercise its proxy right under the pledge agreement and take control of ICC’s board of directors. In January 2018, the Company took control of ICC's equity after accelerating the debt and auctioning ICC’s equity in a public sale.  The Company bid a portion of its outstanding debt to gain control of ICC in connection with the public sale process. Upon the completion of the sale process in January 2018, the Company converted $2.0 million of its debt investment in ICC into shares of ICC’s membership interests.

Refer to Note 12 in the accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for summarized financial information for ICC for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019.

(13)In June 2020, General Nutrition, Inc. ("GNC") filed for bankruptcy. Subsequent to GNC's bankruptcy filing and quarter-end, the Company invested $1.0 million in a debtor-in-possession term loan to GNC, which carries an interest rate of LIBOR + 13.0% with a 1.00% LIBOR floor. In addition, the Company converted approximately $1.0 million of its existing senior secured term loan into a new first lien first-out term loan that carries an interest rate of L + 10.0%.

(1)Debt investments are income-producing investments unless an investment is on non-accrual. Common equity, preferred equity, residual values and warrants are non-income-producing.
(2)For each loan, the Company has provided the interest rate in effect on the date presented, as well as the contractual components of that interest rate. In the case of the Company's variable or floating rate loans, the interest rate in effect takes into account the applicable LIBOR in effect on December 31, 2019 or, if higher, the applicable LIBOR floor.
(3)"Residual value" represents the value of the Company's share in the collateral securing the loan.
(4)Credit facility has an unfunded commitment in addition to the amounts shown in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. See Note 8 in the Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 for further discussion on unfunded commitments.
(5)The coupon on the loan is subject to a pricing grid based on certain leverage ratios of the portfolio company.
(6)This investment is owned by HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC, one of the Company's taxable blocker subsidiaries.

(7)ICC is in default under the terms of its credit agreement and was on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2019. ICC was current on its interest payments to the Company through December 31, 2017; however, it failed to repay the Company’s protective loan advances at various dates in the fourth quarter of 2017 as well as throughout 2018 and 2019.  ICC was previously in breach of its minimum EBITDA, minimum fixed charge and total leverage covenants, but these breaches were waived by the Company through December 31, 2017 in connection with its entry into an agreement, dated as of January 13, 2017, with ICC relating thereto.  In October 2017, the Company exercised its rights under a stock pledge of ICC. The Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, HCAP ICC, LLC, to exercise its proxy right under the pledge agreement and take control of ICC’s board of directors. In January 2018, the Company took control of ICC's equity after accelerating the debt and auctioning ICC’s equity in a public sale.  The Company bid a portion of its outstanding debt to gain control of ICC in connection with the public sale process. Upon the completion of the sale process in January 2018, the Company converted $2.0 million of its debt investment in ICC into shares of ICC’s membership interests.

Refer to Note 13 in the Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 for summarized balance sheets for ICC as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and summarized income statements for the years ending December 31, 2019, December 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017.
(8)Investment is not a qualifying asset as defined under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Qualifying assets must represent at least 70% of total assets at the time of acquisition of any additional non-qualifying assets The Company's non-qualifying assets, on a fair value basis, totaled approximately 1.0% of the Company's total assets as of December 31, 2019.
(9)This is an equity investment that receives a cash flow stream based on lease payments received by Flight Lease VII, LLC. Flight Lease VII, LLC owns an aircraft that was leased to one lessee. The lessee had been in arrears on its lease payments and in June of 2018, Flight Lease VII, LLC terminated the lease. As a result of the cessation of cash flows, future payments on this equity investment will resume only if Flight Lease VII, LLC is successful in obtaining a new lessee or sells the aircraft. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $0.3 million, which is presented in the net realized gains (losses) - control investments balance on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
(10)This portfolio company failed to make its contractual deferred interest payment on July 23, 2018, partially paid its December 31, 2018 contractual current interest payment and failed to make any contractual interest payments throughout 2019. As such, this loan is on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2019. In addition, the Company's management determined that the contractual interest payments, including the deferred interest, were no longer collectible and, as a result, reversed the interest payment that had previously been viewed as collectible under the circumstances and had been accrued during the year ended December 31, 2019.
(11)On May 22, 2019, Northeast Metal Works, LLC ("Northeast Metal Works") entered into a new financing agreement with a senior lender. In conjunction with this, Northeast Metal Works and the Company entered into a subordination and inter-creditor agreement where the Company thereby agreed to subordinate its indebtedness to the senior lender through the earlier of the due date of the new financing agreement, which expires on May 31, 2020, or the date on which Northeast Metal Works has fully satisfied the indebtedness to the new senior lender. In addition, the new senior lender obtained a first priority interest in certain assets of Northeast Metal Works. As a result, the Company reclassified its term loan investment in Northeast Metal Works from senior secured to junior secured. In connection with the new financing agreement, Northeast Metal Works paid down the existing $1.5 million revolving line of credit by approximately $1.1 million. The remaining $0.4 million commitment under the revolving line of credit was transferred to the junior secured term loan as an increase in the outstanding principal amount. Finally, as part of the refinancing transaction, the Company sold 125 units of its preferred equity interest in Northeast Metal Works to a third party and recognized a realized gain of $20,750.

On September 27, 2019, the senior lender issued a Notice of Default to Northeast Metal Works. The Notice of Default prohibited Northeast Metal Works from making any further interest payments to the Company, despite having the cash on hand to do so. On October 31, 2019, the Company extended $1.7 million in additional credit to Northeast Metal Works by increasing the commitment on its junior secured term loan. Northeast Metal Works used the proceeds to pay off the existing senior secured debt and the senior secured debt was subsequently terminated. As a result of this transaction, the Company's junior secured term loan converted into a senior secured term loan.
(12)The Company's Credit Facility is secured by all of the Company's assets. Refer to Note 3 in the Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 for more information.
(13)All of the Company's portfolio investments are generally subject to restrictions on sale as "restricted securities", unless otherwise noted.
(14)Unless otherwise indicated, all portfolio company investments are Level 3 assets whose values were determined using significant unobservable inputs.

(15)On November 6, 2019, the Company's investment in Deluxe Entertainment Services Group Inc. ("Deluxe") was restructured whereby the Company's $5.4 million of debt at par value was deemed extinguished and in return the Company received its pro-rata share of a new second lien term loan with a par value of $0.5 million and 0.63% ownership in the common equity of a newly formed holding company, DESG Intermediate II Inc. ("DESG"). As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded a realized loss of $2.4 million, which is presented in the net realized gains (losses) - non-affiliated/non-control investments balance on the Consolidated Statement of Operations included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.

Harvest Capital Credit Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Organization 
 
Harvest Capital Credit Corporation ("HCAP" or the "Company") was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on November 14, 2012, for the purpose of, among other things, acquiring Harvest Capital Credit LLC (“HCC LLC”). HCAP acquired HCC LLC in May 2013, in connection with HCAP's initial public offering. HCAP is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has filed an election to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, for tax purposes, HCAP has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As an investment company, the Company follows accounting and reporting guidance as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 946, Financial Services- Investment Companies.

On July 1, 2016, the Company formed HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company to hold certain equity investments made by the Company in limited liability companies or other forms of pass-through entities. By investing through HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC, the Company is able to benefit from the tax treatment of this entity and create a tax structure that is advantageous with respect to the Company's status as a RIC. The Company also formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, HCAP ICC, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, to exercise certain rights in connection with its investment in Infinite Care, LLC.

HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC and HCAP ICC, LLC are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, and the portfolio investments held by HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements and recorded at fair value in conjunction with the Company's valuation policy. However, HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC and HCAP ICC, LLC are not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate tax expense as a result of any ownership of portfolio companies.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 
 
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in accordance with the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for the fair statement of the Company's consolidated interim financial statements have been made.
 
In preparing the consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the relevant period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Harvest Capital Credit Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC and HCAP ICC, LLC. The effects of all intercompany transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. Under ASC 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies, the Company is precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company, except that ASC 946 provides for the consolidation of a controlled operating company that provides substantially all of its services to the investment company or its consolidated subsidiaries.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at
18


amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The amendments in ASU 2016-13 broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has adopted these amendments as currently required and the adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has adopted these amendments as currently required and these are reflected in its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Cash
 
Cash as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes bank clearing accounts with financial institutions and cash held in these accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash of $21.5 million and $10.6 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, was held at financial institutions in conjunction with the Company's senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the "Credit Facility") (see Note 3. Borrowings). The Company is restricted from accessing this cash until the monthly settlement date when, after delivering a covenant compliance certificate, the net restricted cash is released to the Company after paying interest, fees, expenses, and borrowings outstanding owed under the Credit Facility.   
 
Investments and Related Investment Revenue and Expense
 
All investment related revenue and expenses are reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Operations, generally commencing on the trade date unless otherwise specified by the transaction documents.
 
The Company accrues interest income if it expects that ultimately it will be able to collect it. Generally, when an interest payment default occurs on a loan in the portfolio, when interest has not been paid for greater than 90 days, or when management otherwise believes that the issuer of the loan will not be able to service the loan and other obligations, the Company will place the loan on non-accrual status and will cease accruing interest income on that loan until all principal and interest is current through payment or until a restructuring occurs, such that the interest income is deemed collectible. However, the Company remains contractually entitled to this interest, and any collections actually received on these non-accrual loans may be recognized as interest income on a cash basis or applied to the principal depending upon management's judgment regarding collectability. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection and the amount of collectible interest can be reasonably estimated. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had debt investments in four portfolio companies, with a combined fair value of $17.8 million, on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had debt investments in two portfolio companies, with a combined fair value of $10.2 million, on non-accrual status.
 
For loans with contractual PIK (payment-in-kind) interest income, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the loan balance that generally becomes due at maturity, the Company will not accrue PIK interest if the Company believes that the PIK interest is no longer collectible, including if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. Loan origination fees - net of direct loan origination costs, original issue discounts that initially represent the value of detachable equity warrants obtained in conjunction with the acquisition of debt securities and market discounts or premiums - are accreted or amortized using the effective interest method as interest income over the contractual life of the loan. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized net loan origination fee will be recorded as interest income. Loan exit fees that are contractually required to be paid at the termination or maturity of the loan will be accreted to interest income over the contractual term of the loan. The Company suspends the accretion of interest income for any loans or debt securities placed on non-accrual status. The Company may also collect other prepayment premiums on loans. These prepayment premiums are recorded as other income as earned.
19



For equity investments with contractual dividends, the Company accrues dividend income based on the contractual obligation. The Company will not accrue dividend income if the Company believes that the dividend income is no longer collectible, including if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such dividend income is not collectible. For equity investments without contractual dividends, dividend income will be recognized on the ex-dividend date.

Income from certain of the Company's equity investments is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing projected cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. The Company monitors the expected cash flows from these equity investments and the effective yield is determined and updated at each reporting date.

Certain expenses related to legal and tax consultation, due diligence, valuation expenses and independent collateral appraisals may arise when the Company makes certain investments. To the extent that such costs are not classified as direct loan origination costs, these expenses are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as they are incurred.
 
Investment Date
 
The Company records investment purchases and sales based on the trade date. For instances when the trade date and funding date differ, the Company captures the open trades in the receivable for securities sold or payable for securities purchased on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation
 
Realized gains and losses on investments are calculated using the specific identification method. The Company measures realized gains or losses on equity investments as the difference between the net proceeds from the sale and the cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized. The Company measures realized gains or losses on debt investments as the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the contractual amount owed to the Company on the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized or unamortized deferred fees. The acceleration of unamortized deferred fees is recognized as interest income and the collection of prepayment and other fees is recognized as other income. The Company recognized $2.2 million in net realized losses on its investments and $26,901 in net realized gains on its investments during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company recognized $2.2 million in net realized losses on its investments and $0.1 million of net realized gains on its investments during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

Net changes in unrealized appreciation or depreciation measure changes in the fair value of the Company's investments relative to changes in their amortized cost. The Company recognized $1.2 million in net change in unrealized appreciation and $0.8 million in net change in unrealized depreciation during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The Company recognized $3.4 million and $1.5 million in net change in unrealized depreciation during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

 Classification of Portfolio Companies
 
The Company classifies its investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual owns beneficially more than 25% of the voting securities of another entity. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through beneficial ownership of at least 5% but not more than 25%, of the outstanding voting securities of another entity. See table below for a breakdown of the Company's portfolio companies by classification at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Valuation of Investments
 
Valuation analyses of the Company’s investments are performed on a quarterly basis pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with applicable accounting guidance and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.
 
Pursuant to ASC 820, the valuation standard used to measure the value of each investment is fair value defined as, “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Investments are recorded at their fair value at each quarter end (the measurement date).
 
Fair Value Investment Hierarchy
 
Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1 
Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active public markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2 
Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 
Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about what market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
  
Valuation Process
 
Investments are measured at fair value as determined in good faith by the Company's management team and investment professionals of HCAP Advisors, LLC, the Company's external investment adviser ("HCAP Advisors"), reviewed by the audit committee (which consists entirely of directors who are not "interested persons," as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, of the Company) of the board of directors, and ultimately approved by the Company's board of directors, based on, among other factors, consistently applied valuation procedures on each measurement date.

The board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process at each measurement date.

The valuation process generally begins with each investment initially being valued by the Company's management and the investment professionals of HCAP Advisors and/or, if applicable, by an independent third-party valuation firm.

Preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with the Company's senior management.

The audit committee of the Company's board of directors reviews and discusses the preliminary valuations and recommends valuations to the board of directors for approval.

The board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in the Company's portfolio in good faith, based upon input of the Company's senior management, HCAP Advisors' investment professionals, and an independent third-party valuation firm (to the extent any such firm reviewed the investment during the applicable quarter), and the recommendation of the board of director's audit committee.
21



The nature of the materials and input that the Company’s board of directors receives in the valuation process varies depending on the nature of the investment and the other facts and circumstances. For example, in the case of investments that are Level 1 or 2 assets, a formal report by the Company’s management or HCAP Advisors' investment professionals, called a portfolio monitoring report, or “PMR,” is not generally prepared, and no independent third-party valuation firm is engaged due to the availability of quotes in markets for such investments or similar assets.

In the case of investments that are Level 3 assets, however, the Company’s board of directors generally receives a report on material Level 3 investments on a quarterly basis (i) from the Company’s management or HCAP Advisors' investment professionals in the form of a PMR, (ii) from an independent third-party valuation firm, or (iii) in some cases, both. In the case of investments that are Level 3 assets and have an investment rating of 1 (performing above expectations), the Company generally engages an independent third-party valuation firm to review all such material investments at least annually. In quarters where an external valuation is not prepared for such investments, the Company’s management or HCAP Advisors' investment professionals generally prepare a PMR. In the case of investments that are Level 3 assets and have an investment rating of 2 through 5 (with performance ranging from within expectations to substantially below expectations), the Company generally engages an independent third-party valuation firm to review such material investments quarterly (and may receive a PMR in addition to the review of the independent external valuation firm where the Level 3 assets have an investment rating of 3 through 5). However, in certain cases for Level 3 assets, the Company may determine that it is more appropriate for HCAP Advisors' investment professionals to prepare a PMR instead of engaging an independent third-party valuation firm on a quarterly basis, because a third-party valuation is not cost effective or the nature of the investment does not warrant a quarterly third-party valuation. In addition, under certain unique circumstances, the Company may determine that a formal valuation report is not likely to be informative, and neither a third-party valuation report nor a report from the Company’s management or HCAP Advisor's investment professionals is prepared. Such circumstances might include, for example, an instance in which the investment has paid off after the period end date but before the board of directors meets to discuss the valuations.

Further, Level 3 debt investments that have closed within six months of the measurement date are valued at cost unless unique circumstances dictate otherwise.

 Valuation Methodology
 
The following section describes the valuation methods and techniques used to measure the fair value of the investments.
 
Fair value for each investment may be derived using a combination of valuation methodologies that, in the judgment of the Company's management, are most relevant to such investment, including, without limitation, being based on one or more of the following: (i) market prices obtained from market makers for which management has deemed there to be enough breadth (number of quotes) and depth to be indicative of fair value, (ii) the price paid or realized in a completed transaction or binding offer received in an arms-length transaction, (iii) the market approach (enterprise value), (iv) the income approach (discounted cash flow analysis) or (v) the bond yield approach.
 
The valuation methods selected for a particular investment are based on the circumstances and on the level of sufficient data available to measure fair value. If more than one valuation method is used to measure fair value, the results are evaluated and weighted, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. A fair value measurement is the point within that range that is most representative of fair value given the circumstances.
 
The determination of fair value using the selected methodologies takes into consideration a range of factors including, but not limited to, the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public and private exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment, compliance with agreed upon terms and covenants, and assessment of credit ratings of an underlying borrower.
 
In most cases the Company uses the bond yield approach for valuing its Level 3 debt investments, as long as the Company deems this method appropriate. This approach entails analyzing the interest rate spreads for recently completed financing transactions which are similar in nature to the Company's, in order to assess what the range of effective market interest rates would be for the investment if it were being made on or near the valuation date. Then all of the remaining expected cash flows of the investment are discounted using this range of interest rates to determine a range of fair values for the debt investment. If, in the Company's judgment, the bond yield approach is not appropriate, the Company may use the market approach, or, in certain cases, an alternative methodology potentially including an asset liquidation or expected recovery model.
22


 
The fair value of equity securities, including warrants, in portfolio companies oftentimes considers the market approach, which applies market valuation multiples of publicly-traded firms or recently acquired private firms engaged in businesses similar to those of the portfolio companies. This approach to determining the fair value of a portfolio company’s equity security will typically involve: (1) applying to the portfolio company’s trailing-twelve-month EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) a range of enterprise value to EBITDA multiples that are derived from an analysis of comparable companies, in order to arrive at a range of enterprise values for the portfolio company; then (2) subtracting from the range of enterprise values balances of any debt or equity securities that rank senior to the Company's equity securities; and (3) multiplying the range of equity values by the Company’s ownership share of such equity to determine a range of fair values for the Company’s equity investment.
    
The Company also uses the income approach, which discounts a portfolio company’s expected future cash flows to determine its net present enterprise value. The discount rate used is based upon the company’s weighted average cost of capital, which is determined by blending the cost of the portfolio company’s various debt instruments and its estimated cost of equity capital. The cost of equity capital is estimated based upon the Company's market knowledge and discussions with private equity sponsors.
 
These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment, including in discerning whether the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's portfolio companies and their earnings is temporary or permanent in nature and the resulting significance thereof on the valuation of the Company's portfolio investments. As it relates to investments that do not have an active public market, there is no single standard for determining the estimated fair value. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, and they may fluctuate over short periods of time and are based on estimates and other information provided to the Company by its portfolio companies, including with respect to the evolving nature of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their businesses and earnings. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these investments existed. In some cases, fair value of such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing different methodologies from which a single fair value may then be determined.
 
Consequently, fair value for each investment may be derived using a combination of valuation methodologies that, in the judgment of the Company's management, are most relevant to such investment. The selected valuation methodologies for a particular investment are consistently applied on each measurement date. However, a change from one measurement date to another in a valuation methodology, its application or the related inputs, such as earnings and adjustments relating thereto to account for the estimated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on a portfolio company, is possible if the change results in a measurement that is deemed to be equally or more representative of fair value in the circumstances.
 
Capital Gains Incentive Fee
 
Under GAAP, the Company calculates the capital gains incentive fee as if the Company had realized all investments at their fair values as of the reporting date. Accordingly, the Company accrues a provisional capital gains incentive fee taking into account any unrealized gains or losses. As the provisional incentive fee is subject to the performance of investments until there is a realization event, the amount of provisional capital gains incentive fee accrued at a reporting date may vary from the capital gains incentive fee that is ultimately paid and the differences could be material.
 
Deferred Financing Costs
 
Deferred financing costs consist of debt issuance costs associated with the Company's Credit Facility. The deferred financing costs consist of fees and other direct costs incurred by the Company in obtaining debt financing from its lenders and are recognized as assets and are amortized as interest expense over the term of the applicable credit facility. The balance of deferred financing costs as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Amortization expense relating to deferred debt financing costs during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. Amortization expense relating to deferred debt financing costs during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Deferred Offering Costs
 
Deferred offering costs consist of expenses related to the Company's $28.8 million in aggregate principal amount of its 2022 Notes (defined below in Note 3), including underwriting fees, legal fees, and other direct costs incurred. The deferred
23


offering costs are recognized as a reduction to the 2022 Notes on the Company's consolidated statement of assets and liabilities and are amortized as interest expense through the maturity of the 2022 Notes. The balance of deferred offering costs as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Amortization expense of the deferred offering costs was $52,765 and $49,210 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Amortization expense of the deferred offering costs during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Dividends and Distributions 
 
Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to stockholders which exceed tax distributable income (tax net investment income and realized gains, if any) are reported as distributions of paid-in capital (i.e., return of capital). The determination of the tax attributes of the Company's distributions is made at the end of the year based upon the Company's taxable income for the full year and the distributions paid during the full year. 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 its dividends and other distributions on behalf of the Company's stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the board of directors authorizes, and the Company declares, a cash dividend or other distribution, then stockholders who have not “opted out” of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company's common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company did not pay any distributions. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company paid distributions totaling $0.24 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the Company paid distributions totaling $0.24 and $0.50 per share, respectively.

 Income Taxes
 
The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, the Company is required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests in addition to distributing at least 90% of ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. As a RIC, the Company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless the Company distributes in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the 1-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax. To the extent the Company receives taxable income information from portfolio companies subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K which alters taxable income estimates and book/tax differences as reported in the filing, the Company’s tax return will be trued-up.

One of the Company's wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries,, HCAP Equity Holdings LLC, holds certain portfolio investments that are listed on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. HCAP Equity Holdings LLC is consolidated for financial reporting purposes, such that the company’s consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s investments in the portfolio companies owned by it. The purpose of HCAP Equity Holdings LLC is to permit the Company to hold certain portfolio companies that are organized as limited liability companies (“LLCs”) (or other forms of pass-through entities) and still satisfy the RIC tax requirement that at least 90% of the RIC’s gross revenue for income tax purposes must consist of qualifying investment income. Absent such a taxable subsidiary, a proportionate amount of any gross income of an LLC (or other pass-through entity) portfolio investment would flow through directly to the RIC. To the extent that such income did not consist of qualifying investment income, it could jeopardize the Company’s ability to qualify as a RIC and therefore cause the Company to incur significant amounts of federal income taxes. When LLCs (or other pass-through entities) are owned by a taxable subsidiary, their income is taxed to the taxable subsidiary and does not flow through to the RIC, thereby helping the Company preserve its RIC status and resultant tax advantages. HCAP Equity Holdings LLC is not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expense as a result of its ownership of interests in portfolio companies. This income tax expense is reflected in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC is subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes and may generate income tax liabilities or assets from permanent and temporary differences in the recognition of items for financial reporting and income tax purposes at HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the Company did not incur any deferred tax expense for such temporary differences. The Company did not recognize a current income tax expense during the three or six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
24



The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by federal, state and local taxing authorities. Because many types of transactions are susceptible to varying interpretations under federal and state income tax laws and regulations, the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements may be subject to change at a later date by the respective taxing authorities. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Penalties or interest that may be assessed related to any income taxes would be classified as other operating expenses in the financial statements. Based on an analysis of the Company's tax position, there are no uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria and the Company has no amounts accrued for interest or penalties as of June 30, 2020. The Company is not currently undergoing any tax examinations. The Company does not anticipate any significant increase or decrease in unrecognized tax benefits for the next twelve months. The federal tax years 2016-2019 for the Company remain subject to examination by the IRS. The state tax years 2014 - 2019 for the Company remain subject to examination by the state taxing authorities.

Excise Tax

The Company estimates excise tax based on timely information available. The Company does not estimate that it will incur an excise tax for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The Company did not incur an excise tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Note 3. Borrowings 

The Company's principal balance of its debt obligations consist of the following:

As of
June 30, 2020December 31, 2019
Revolving line of credit $45,000,000  $43,700,000  
2022 Notes28,750,000  28,750,000  
Total debt obligations$73,750,000  $72,450,000  

The weighted average stated interest rate and weighted average maturity on all of the Company's debt obligations outstanding as of June 30, 2020 were 5.7% and 1.7 years, respectively. The weighted average stated interest rate and weighted average maturity on all of the Company's debt obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2019 were 5.4% and 2.2 years, respectively.

Revolving Line of Credit

On October 29, 2013, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, restated and modified from time to time, the "Loan and Security Agreement") with CapitalSource Bank (now Pacific Western Bank following a merger), as agent and a lender, and each of the lenders from time to time party thereto, including City National Bank, to provide the Company with its $45.0 million Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is secured by all of the Company’s assets, including the Company's equity interest in HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC and HCAP ICC, LLC.

As of June 30, 2020, advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the applicable LIBOR plus 4.50% (with a 1.00% LIBOR floor) and (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. During the revolving period, availability under the Credit Facility is determined by advance rates against eligible loans in the borrowing base up to a maximum aggregate availability of $44.3 million. Advance rates against individual investments range from 40% to 65% depending on the seniority of the investment in the borrowing base.
In addition, as of June 30, 2020, the Credit Facility included the following terms, among other things: (i) a revolving period scheduled to expire on July 31, 2020 (please see "Note 13. Subsequent Events" for information regarding the extension of the revolving period to October 31, 2020); (ii) provides for a senior leverage ratio (the ratio of total borrowed money other than subordinated debt and unsecured longer-term indebtedness to equity) of 1-to-1; (iii) provides for a total leverage ratio (the ratio of total debt to equity) of 1.4-to-1; (iv) additional advances requested under the Credit Facility will be made only at the discretion of the lenders; (v) aggregate commitments under the Loan and Security Agreement are $45.0 million; (vi) a tangible net worth covenant for the Company that reflects a minimum amount equal to $58.0 million; (vii) an effective limitation on the
25


aggregate value of eligible loans in the borrowing base to maximum of approximately $44.3 million; (viii) requires the Company to pay a monthly fee of 0.50% per annum for unused amounts during the revolving period, calculated based on the difference between (a) the maximum loan amount under the Loan and Security Agreement and (b) the average daily principal balance of the obligations outstanding during the prior calendar month; (iv) prohibits the Company from repurchasing shares of its common stock and declaring and paying any distribution or dividend until the termination of the Loan and Security Agreement, except, in the case of distributions and dividends, to the extent necessary for the Company to maintain its eligibility to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code; (x) includes a minimum liquidity covenant threshold for the Company of least $2.2 million through termination of the Loan and Security Agreement; and (xi) permits the use of an Alternative Rate (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) in place of LIBOR if certain conditions are satisfied.

The Credit Facility contains additional customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants, including, without limitation, information reporting requirements, a minimum debt-service coverage ratio and maintenance of RIC and BDC status. The Credit Facility also contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change of control, and the occurrence of a material adverse effect. In addition, the Credit Facility provides that, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any event of default, the Company’s administration agreement could be terminated and a backup administrator could be substituted by the agent.
The maturity date under the Credit Facility is the earlier of (x) October 30, 2021, or (y) the date that is six months prior to the maturity of any of the Company's outstanding unsecured long-term indebtedness. Based on the Company's outstanding 2022 Notes (defined below) that mature on September 15, 2022, the maturity date under the Credit Facility is October 30, 2021. HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC became a co-borrower under the Credit Facility in August 2016, and HCAP ICC, LLC, became a borrower under the Credit Facility in November 2017.
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $45.0 million and $43.7 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Credit Facility.
See "Note 13. Subsequent Events" for more information regarding the Credit Facility.
2022 Notes
On August 24, 2017, the Company closed the public offering of $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.125% Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes"). On September 1, 2017, the Company closed on an additional $3.75 million in aggregate principal amount of 2022 Notes to cover the over-allotment option exercised by the underwriters. In total, the Company issued 1,150,000 of the 2022 Notes at a price of $25.00 per Note. The total net proceeds to the Company from the 2022 Notes, after deducting underwriting discounts of $0.9 million and offering costs of $0.2 million, were $27.7 million. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Notes was $28.8 million and the debt issuance costs balance was $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Notes was $28.8 million and the debt issuance costs balance was $0.6 million. The Company used the proceeds of the 2022 Notes to redeem its 7.00% Notes due 2020 in full on September 23, 2017.

The 2022 Notes mature on September 15, 2022 and bear interest at a rate of 6.125%. They are redeemable in whole or in part at any time at the Company's option after September 15, 2019 at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2022 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2022 Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and rank pari passu with any existing and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness; senior to any of the Company’s future indebtedness that expressly provides it is subordinated to the 2022 Notes; effectively subordinated to all of the existing and future secured indebtedness of the Company, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, including borrowings under the Credit Facility; and structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of any subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities the Company may form in the future, with respect to claims on the assets of any such subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities. Interest on the 2022 Notes is payable quarterly on March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 of each year. The 2022 Notes are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the trading symbol “HCAPZ.” The Company may from time to time repurchase 2022 Notes in accordance with the 1940 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

The indenture governing the 2022 Notes (the “2022 Notes Indenture”) contains certain covenants, including covenants (i) prohibiting the Company’s issuance of any senior securities unless, immediately after such issuance, the Company is in
26


compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to the Company by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)); (ii) if the Company’s asset coverage has been below the 1940 Act minimum asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to the Company by the SEC) for more than six consecutive months, prohibiting the declaration of any cash dividend or distribution on the Company’s common stock (except to the extent necessary for the Company to maintain its treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code), or purchasing any of its common stock, unless, at the time of the declaration of the dividend or distribution or the purchase, and after deducting the amount of such dividend, distribution, or purchase, the Company is in compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to the Company by the SEC); and (iii) requiring the Company to provide financial information to the holders of the 2022 Notes and the Trustee if the Company ceases to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These covenants are subject to limitations and exceptions that are described in the 2022 Notes Indenture. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the 2022 Notes Indenture.

Regulatory Requirements
As a BDC, the Company is generally required, upon issuing any senior securities, to meet a coverage ratio of total assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to total senior securities, which include all of the Company's borrowings, of at least 200%. However, the Small Business Credit Availability Act (the "SBCAA"), which was signed into law in March 2018, modified this requirement to permit a BDC to reduce the required minimum asset coverage ratio to 150% from 200%, if certain requirements are met. On May 4, 2018, the Company's board of directors unanimously approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act. As a result, the asset coverage ratio applicable to the Company under the 1940 Act changed to 150% from 200%, effective May 4, 2019.
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company's aggregate indebtedness, including outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility and the aggregate principal amount outstanding on the 2022 Notes, was $73.8 million and $72.5 million, respectively, and as of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company's asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, was 183% and 192%, respectively.

Note 4. Concentrations of Credit Risk 
 
The Company’s investment portfolio consists primarily of loans to privately-held small to mid-size companies. Many of these companies may experience variation in operating results. Many of these companies do business in regulated industries and could be affected by changes in government regulations.
 
The largest debt investments may vary from year to year as new debt investments are recorded and repaid. The Company’s five largest debt investments represented approximately 45.2% and 40.8% of total principal balance outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Investment income, consisting of interest and fees, can fluctuate significantly upon repayment of large loans. Investment income from the five largest debt investments accounted for approximately 34.9% and 34.6% of total investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Investment income from the five largest debt investments accounted for approximately 36.5% and 33.6% of total investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

On November 1, 2018, the board of directors authorized an open market stock repurchase program. Pursuant to the program, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to 250,000 shares in the aggregate of the Company's outstanding common stock in the open market. The repurchase program expired on April 4, 2019, on which date the Company met the 250,000 shares limit.

On May 2, 2019, the board of directors authorized another open market stock repurchase program. Pursuant to the program, the Company was authorized to repurchase up to 250,000 shares in the aggregate of the Company's outstanding common stock in the open market. The repurchase program expired on October 24, 2019, on which date the Company met the 250,000 shares limit.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020 the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repurchased 70,747 shares of its common stock at an average price of $10.50 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $0.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the repurchased 261,508 shares of its common stock at an average price of $10.50 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $2.7 million.

The Company has adopted an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan, or “DRIP,” for its common stockholders. As a result, if the Company makes cash distributions, then stockholders’ cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company's common stock, unless they specifically “opt out” of the dividend reinvestment plan so as to receive cash distributions.

Note 6. Fair Value Measurements 
 
As described in Note 2, the Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value, and for estimating fair value for financial and non-financial instruments not recorded at fair value, is set forth below. The information presented should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only required for a portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

2022 Notes: The 2022 Notes are a Level 2 financial instrument with readily observable market inputs from other comparable unsecured notes in the marketplace. The 2022 Notes trade under the ticker "HCAPZ". As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the 2022 Notes was $27.5 million and $29.8 million, respectively, which was based on the closing price of the 2022 Notes on the respective dates.

Revolving line of credit: Borrowings under the Credit Facility are carried at cost. The fair value of the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $45.0 million and $43.7 million, respectively, which approximates cost due to its short-term maturity and floating rate coupon.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments: The fair value of unfunded commitments is estimated based on the fair value of the funded portion of the corresponding debt investment.
 
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, unfunded commitments totaled $3.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, and if funded, their estimated fair values on such dates were $3.1 million and $3.1 million, respectively.
 
There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
 
The following table details the financial instruments that are carried at fair value and measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively:

(1)When estimating the fair value of its debt investments, the Company typically utilizes the bond yield technique. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement under this technique are risk adjusted discount factors. However, the Company also takes into consideration the market technique and income technique in order to determine whether the fair value of the debt investment is within the estimated enterprise value of the portfolio company. The significant unobservable inputs used under these techniques are EBITDA multiples and weighted average cost of capital. Under the bond yield technique, significant increases (decreases) in the risk adjusted discount factors would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.
 
When estimating the fair value of its equity investments, the Company utilizes the (i) market technique and (ii) income technique. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s equity investments are EBITDA multiples and weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”). Significant increases (decreases) in EBITDA multiple inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in WACC inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.
(2)The weighted average is calculated in two parts. First, the Company calculates each portfolio company's unobservable input weight by multiplying an individual portfolio company's unobservable input by its fair value and dividing by the total fair value of each portfolio company that utilizes that unobservable input. Then, the Company totals each portfolio company's weight that utilizes that specific unobservable input to calculate the weighted average.
(3)Senior secured category includes both first out and last out term loans. The Company's last out senior secured loans are identified on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

Note 7. Related Party Transactions 
 
The Company's predecessor, Harvest Capital Credit LLC, was founded in 2011 by certain members of HCAP Advisors and JMP Group Inc. (now JMP Group LLC) ("JMP Group"), a full-service investment banking and asset management firm. JMP Group currently holds an equity interest in us and a majority equity interest in HCAP Advisors. JMP Group conducts its primary business activities through two wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Harvest Capital Strategies, LLC ("HCS"), an SEC-registered investment adviser that focuses on long-short equity hedge funds, middle-market lending and private equity, and (ii) JMP Securities LLC, a full-service investment bank that provides equity research, institutional brokerage and investment banking services to growth companies and their investors.

Management Fees and Incentive Fees
 
In conjunction with the Company's initial public offering in May 2013, HCAP entered into an investment advisory and management agreement with HCAP Advisors. Under the investment advisory and management agreement, the base management fee is calculated based on the Company's gross assets (which includes assets acquired with the use of leverage and excludes cash and cash equivalents) at an annual rate of (i) 2.0% of gross assets up to and including $350 million, (ii) 1.75% of gross assets above $350 million and up to and including $1 billion, and (iii) 1.5% of gross assets above $1 billion.

Management fee expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 totaled $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Management fee expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 totaled $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

The incentive fee consists of two parts. The first part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter and is 20% of the amount, if any, by which the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds a 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) hurdle rate and a “catch-up” provision, pursuant to which HCAP Advisors receives 100% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5% (10.0% annualized). The effect of this "catch-up" provision is that, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.5% in any calendar quarter, HCAP Advisors will receive 20% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply. The income-based incentive fee is subject to a total return requirement, which provides that no incentive fee in respect of the pre-incentive fee net investment income is payable except to the extent 20% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations over the then current and 11 preceding calendar quarters exceeds the cumulative income and capital gains incentive fees accrued and/or paid for the 11 preceding quarters. As a result, even in the event that the pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate, no incentive fee will be payable to the extent that the Company has generated cumulative net decreases in assets resulting from operations over the trailing 12 quarters due to unrealized or realized net losses on its investments.

The Company did not incur an income-based incentive fee for either of the three or six months ended June 30, 2020 or June 30, 2019.
  
The second part of the incentive fee is calculated and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory and management agreement, as of the termination date) and equals 20% of the aggregate realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of each calendar 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 gains incentive fees.

The capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to cumulative realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such cumulative realized capital gains exceed cumulative realized and unrealized capital losses through the end of such fiscal year (less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee). The Company also records an expense accrual relating to the capital gains incentive fee payable by the Company to HCAP Advisors when (i) the cumulative realized and unrealized gains on its investments exceed all cumulative realized and unrealized capital losses on its investments and (ii) the capital gains incentive fee that would be payable exceeds the aggregate amount of any
32


previously paid capital gains incentive fee given the fact that a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to HCAP Advisors if the Company were to liquidate its investment portfolio at such time. Any decrease in unrealized appreciation in subsequent periods will result in the reversal of some or all of such previously recorded expense accrual. The Company recorded a net change in unrealized appreciation of $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and a net change in unrealized depreciation of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company recorded a net change in unrealized depreciation of $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and a net change in unrealized depreciation of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company recorded net realized losses of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and net realized gains of $26,901 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company recorded net realized losses of $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and net realized gains of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company did not incur a capital gains incentive fee for either of the three or six months ended June 30, 2020 or June 30, 2019.

Total base management fees and incentive fees expense was $0.5 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Total base management fees and incentive fees expense was $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Total accrued base management fees and incentive management fees payable were $0.5 million and $0.6 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
   
Administrative Services Expense

HCAP Advisors also serves as the Company's administrator pursuant to an administration agreement. Under the administration agreement, HCAP Advisors provides administrative services to the Company and furnishes the Company with office facilities, equipment, and clerical, bookkeeping, and recordkeeping services. In full consideration of the provision of the services of HCAP Advisors, the Company reimburses HCAP Advisors for the costs and expenses incurred by HCAP Advisors in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the administration agreement. Payments under the administration agreement are equal to an amount based upon the Company's allocable portion of the administrator's overhead in performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including rent and the Company's allocable portion of the cost of its executive officers and their respective staffs and administrative services provided to the Company by its executive officers. HCAP Advisors agreed to cap the amounts payable by the Company under the administration agreement to $1.4 million during each of the 2020 and 2019 fiscal years.

Total administrative services expense was $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Total administrative services expense was $0.7 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. Accrued administrative services fees payable were $0.4 million and $0.4 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Co-investment Transactions with Affiliates

On December 10, 2015, the Company received co-investment exemptive relief under the 1940 Act from the SEC (the "Exemptive Relief") permitting the Company greater flexibility to negotiate the terms of co-investments with certain accounts managed or held by JMP Group and certain of its subsidiaries, in each case in a manner consistent with the Company's investment objectives and strategies as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors (including the terms and conditions of the Exemptive Relief). Under the terms of the relief, a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the Company's independent directors must make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including (1) the terms of the proposed transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Company and its stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of the Company or its stockholders on the part of any person concerned and (2) the proposed transaction is consistent with the interests of the Company's stockholders and is consistent with the Company's investment objectives and strategies.

In February 2019, in accordance with the Exemptive Relief, the Company executed a co-investment transaction whereby the Company invested alongside affiliate funds of JMP Group in a $4.8 million senior secured term loan and $0.5 million revolving line of credit of Peerless Media, LLC. The revolving line of credit was subsequently cancelled. As of June 30, 2020, the Company's total investment, at fair value, in Peerless Media, LLC consisted of a $3.9 million senior secured term loan. As of December 31, 2019, the Company's total investment, at fair value, in Peerless Media, LLC consisted of a $4.6 million senior secured term loan.

Legal Proceedings

Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries are currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to their respective businesses, and no such material proceedings are known to be contemplated. The Company and its subsidiaries may from time to time, however, be involved in litigation arising out of their operations in the normal course of business or otherwise, including the enforcement of rights under the contracts with the Company's portfolio companies. Third parties may also seek to impose liability on the Company in connection with the activities of its portfolio companies.
 
Note 9. Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations per Common Share
 
In accordance with the provision of ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” 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. There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2020 or June 30, 2019.
 
The following information sets forth the computation of the weighted average basic and diluted net increase in net assets per share from operations for each period:

Note 10. Income Tax

To receive RIC tax treatment, the Company must, among other things, distribute annually at least 90% of its net ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current
34


year distributions into the next tax year and pay a 4% excise tax on such income. Any such carryover taxable income must be distributed through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such taxable income. The Company may, in the future, make actual distributions to its stockholders of its net capital gains. The Company can offer no assurance that it will achieve results that will permit the payment of any cash distributions and, if the Company issues senior securities, the Company may be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes the Company to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the 1940 Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of the Company's borrowings. The Company did not incur an excise tax for calendar year 2019.

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC and HCAP ICC, LLC, have each elected to be taxed as a C-Corporation. As such, income taxes are accrued for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are limited to amounts considered to be realizable in future periods. The Company accounts for any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of the income tax provision.

HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC has a net operating loss carryforward for federal and state income taxes of approximately $0.9 million and $0.5 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. As HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC has historically generated taxable losses, the Company cannot assume as of June 30, 2020 that it will be able to utilize this net operating loss to offset future taxable income. As a result, any deferred income tax assets, which are estimated to be a de minimis amount as of June 30, 2020, resulting from a net operating loss carry forward and deferred taxes on net unrealized losses, include certain future tax benefits that management believes will not be utilized, and as such, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance. The loss carryforward does not expire.

(1)Based on weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
(2)Distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2020 exceeded net investment income in the amount of $235,982 and distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2019 exceeded net investment income in the amount of $1,479,982. See "Dividends and Distributions" in Note 2.
(3)This measure of total investment return measures the changes in net asset value over the period indicated, taking into account dividends as reinvested. The return is calculated by taking the difference between the net asset value per share at the end of the period (plus assumed reinvestment of dividends and distributions at prices obtained under the Company's dividend reinvestment plan) and the net asset value per share at the beginning of the period, and dividing that difference by the net asset value per share at the beginning of the period. This return primarily differs from the total investment return in that it does not take into account changes in the market price of the Company's stock.
(4)This measure of total investment return measures the changes in market value over the period indicated, taking into account dividends as reinvested. The return is calculated based on an assumed purchase of stock at the market price on the first day of the period (plus assumed reinvestment of dividends and distributions at prices obtained under the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan) and an assumed sale at the market price on the last day of the period. The difference between the sale and purchases is then divided by the purchase prices. The total investment return does not reflect any sales load that may be paid by investors.
(5)Rounds to less than $0.01 per share.

Note 13. Subsequent Events 

The Company's management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of the consolidated interim financial statements included herein. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in this Form 10-Q or would be required to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2020, except as discussed below.

On August 6, 2020, the Company entered into the Tenth Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amendment”), by and among the Company, HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC, HCAP ICC, LLC, Pacific Western Bank, as agent and a lender, and each of the other lenders from to time to time party thereto, including City National Bank. The Amendment amends the Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) extend the revolving period to October 31, 2020, until which date the Company may receive additional advances at the discretion of the lenders; and (ii) commence the amortization period beginning August 1, 2020.

36


During the amortization period, the limit on the Company's debt service coverage ratio under the Credit Facility decreases to 1.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter, from 1.40 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter prior to the amortization period. In addition, the Company is required during the amortization period to pay down the principal amount outstanding under the Credit Facility on a monthly basis in equal installments during the relevant calendar quarter so that such outstanding amounts will be reduced by an amount equal to or greater than (i) $2.2 million for each of the first two full calendar quarters following July 31, 2020, (ii) $3.3 million for each of the succeeding two full calendar quarters and (iii) $4.3 million for each succeeding calendar quarter until termination of the Credit Facility, which is scheduled to mature on October 30, 2021. During the amortization period, 90% of all principal collections the Company receives from its portfolio companies must generally be paid to the lenders to pay down the Company's obligations and other amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. In addition, any proceeds the Company receives from the sale or issuance of its equity or debt securities during the amortization period must generally be applied to the prepayment of the Company's obligations under the Credit Facility.

In addition, subsequent to June 30, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic and the related effects on the U.S. and global economies, has continued to have adverse consequences for the business operations of certain of the Company's portfolio companies and has adversely affected, and threatens to continue to adversely affect, the respective operations of the Company and HCAP Advisors. Given the dynamic nature of this situation, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the full impact of COVID-19 on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows in the future. However, the Company does expect that it could have a material adverse impact on future net investment income, the fair value of portfolio investments, and the results of operations and financial condition of the Company and its portfolio companies.

(22)On May 22, 2019, Northeast Metal Works, LLC ("Northeast Metal Works") entered into a new financing agreement with a senior lender.

In addition, the new senior lender obtained a first priority interest in certain assets of Northeast Metal Works. As a result, the Company reclassified its term loan investment in Northeast Metal Works from senior secured to junior secured. In connection with the new financing agreement, Northeast Metal Works paid down the existing $1.5 million revolving line of credit by approximately $1.1 million. The remaining $0.4 million commitment under the revolving line of credit was transferred to the junior secured term loan as an increase in the outstanding principal amount. Finally, as part of the refinancing transaction, the Company sold 125 units of its preferred equity interest in Northeast Metal Works to a third party and recognized a realized gain of $20,750. On September 27, 2019, the senior lender issued a Notice of Default to Northeast Metal Works. The Notice of Default prohibited Northeast Metal Works from making any further interest payments to the Company, despite having the cash on hand to do so. On October 31, 2019, the Company extended $1.7 million in additional credit to Northeast Metal Works by increasing the commitment on its junior secured term loan. Northeast Metal Works used the proceeds to pay off the existing senior secured debt and the senior secured debt was subsequently terminated. As a result of this transaction, the Company's junior secured term loan converted into a senior secured term loan.

The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
 
Overview
 
We were formed as a Delaware corporation on November 14, 2012 and completed our initial public offering on May 7, 2013. Immediately prior to the initial public offering, we acquired Harvest Capital Credit LLC in a merger whereby the outstanding limited liability company membership interests of Harvest Capital Credit LLC were converted into shares of our common stock and we assumed and succeeded to all of Harvest Capital Credit LLC’s assets and liabilities, including its entire portfolio of investments.
  
Our investment objective is to generate both current income and capital appreciation primarily by making direct investments in the form of senior debt, subordinated debt and, to a lesser extent, minority equity investments. We seek to accomplish our investment objective by targeting investments in small to mid-sized U.S. private companies with annual revenues of less than $100 million and annual EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of less than $15 million. We believe that transactions involving companies of this size offer higher yielding investment opportunities, lower leverage levels and other terms more favorable than transactions involving larger companies.
 
We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act.
 
We have also elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to continue to qualify annually for tax treatment as a RIC.

Our investment adviser, HCAP Advisors, which is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act, manages our day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory and management services to us, subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors and pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement. HCAP Advisors also serves as our administrator pursuant to an administration agreement, through which it furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and recordkeeping services and performs, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services.

COVID-19 Update

The COVID-19 pandemic, and the related effects on the U.S. and global economies, has had adverse consequences for the business operations of certain of our portfolio companies and has adversely affected, and threatens to continue to adversely affect, our operations and the operations of HCAP Advisors.

We are continuing to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our business and the business of our portfolio companies, and we have continued to fund existing unfunded revolving lines of credit when requests have been made from our portfolio companies and intend to continue to do so. We may also participate in follow-on investments with respect to existing portfolio companies. Due to the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations and our liquidity, we have decided to temporarily cease to make and originate new investments. We will decide to resume to make and originate new investments when we believe it is prudent in light of our capital needs and contractual obligations, and in the best interests of us and our stockholders.

Neither our management nor our board of directors can predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its duration and the magnitude of its economic impact, and we cannot predict the extent and duration of various travel restrictions, business closures and other quarantine measures imposed, or may in the future be imposed, by various local, state, and federal governmental authorities, as well as non-U.S. governmental authorities. As such, we are unable to accurately predict the extent to which COVID-19 will negatively affect our portfolio companies’ operating results or the impact that such disruptions may have on our results of operations and financial condition.

Depending on the duration and extent of the disruption to the operations of our portfolio companies, we expect that certain of our portfolio companies will, and will continue to, experience financial distress and possibly default on their financial obligations to us and their other capital providers. This risk is amplified with respect to portfolio companies operating in certain industries, such as aerospace and defense, beverage, food and tobacco, construction and building, consumer goods, retail, business services, energy services and others. For example, in June 2020, one of our portfolio companies, General Nutrition Centers, Inc. ("GNC"), filed for bankruptcy and has been placed on non-accrual status as of June 30, 2020. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we invested in a new debtor-in-possession term loan in GNC, converted approximately $1.0 million of our existing senior secured term loan into a new first lien first-out term loan, and expect to receive our pro rata share of equity in the post-restructured GNC if the current reorganization plan is finalized.

Some of our portfolio companies have taken steps to reduce operating expenses, such as significantly curtailing business operations, reducing headcounts and/or deferring capital expenditures, and we expect that additional portfolio companies may take similar steps if subjected to prolonged and severe financial distress, which may impair their business on a permanent basis. These developments would likely result in a decrease in the value of our investment in any such portfolio company, which decrease could be material. To mitigate these risks, a majority of our portfolio companies have applied for and received approval for loans under the U.S. Small Business Administration's ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP Loan") created as part of the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. Assuming that the PPP Loan proceeds are used to cover certain costs and expenses (e.g. documented payroll, mortgage interest, rent, and utility costs) and certain conditions are met, these PPP Loans could be completely forgiven by the U.S. federal government. Through the date of this filing, fifteen of our portfolio companies have applied for and received approval of PPP Loans totaling $30.3 million. In addition, certain portfolio companies are in the process of applying for financing under the Federal Reserve's Main Street Lending program and, if successful, financing received by these portfolio companies can be used to satisfy their debt obligations to us and finance their current operations. As of June 30, 2020, we had four portfolio companies, with a combined fair value of $17.8 million, on non-accrual status. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic discussed above increase the risk that we will place additional portfolio investments on non-accrual status in the future.

The COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on our portfolio companies have already had adverse material effects on our investment income, particularly our interest income, received from our investments, and we expect that such adverse effects will continue for the duration of the pandemic and potentially for some time thereafter. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 we added three portfolio companies, ProAir Holdings Corporation, GK Holdings, Inc., and GNC, to our non-accrual assets. We may need to restructure our investments in some of our portfolio companies as a result of the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could result in reduced interest payments, an increase in the amount of “paid-in-kind” or “PIK” interest we receive, and the placement of any such investment on non-accrual status. Certain restructurings of our portfolio investments included in the borrowing base for our Credit Facility or any future credit facility could result in a reduction in any such borrowing base, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and available
50


liquidity going forward. In addition, any decreases in our net investment income would increase the portion of our cash flows dedicated to servicing borrowings, including existing borrowings and required amortization payments under the Credit Facility and existing borrowings under the 2022 Notes, and any distribution payments to stockholders. As discussed below, under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources,” our board of directors has already taken action to defer the record dates and payments of our March 2020 and April 2020 monthly dividends and has determined to suspend the declaration of any future dividends until further notice. Depending on the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent of its effects on our portfolio companies’ operations and our net investment income, any future distributions to our stockholders may be for amounts less than our historical distributions, may be made less frequently than historical practices, and may be made in part cash and part stock, subject to a limitation that the aggregate amount of cash to be distributed to all stockholders must be at least 10% of the aggregate declared distribution for distributions declared on or before December 31, 2020, and at least 20% of the aggregate declared distribution for distributions declared on or after January 1, 2021.

Primarily as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have had a significant reduction in our net asset value as of June 30, 2020, as compared to our net asset value as of December 31, 2019. The decrease in net asset value as of June 30, 2020 primarily resulted from the aggregate unrealized depreciation of our investment portfolio due to decreases in the fair value of some of our portfolio company investments, which is primarily the result of the adverse economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing uncertainty surrounding its long-term impact.

As of June 30, 2020, we are permitted under the 1940 Act, as a BDC, to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 150% after such borrowing. In addition, the Credit Facility contains events of default and cross-default provisions relating to other indebtedness, as well as affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things: (i) a limit on our senior debt-to-tangible equity ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 at any time; (ii) a limit on our total debt-to-tangible equity ratio of 1.40 to 1.00 at any time; (iii) a limit on our debt service coverage ratio of 1.40 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter prior to the amortization period (which ratio is reduced to 1.25 to 1.00 during the amortization period, which commenced on August 1, 2020; (iv) a requirement that our tangible net worth not be less than $58.0 million; (v) minimum liquidity; and (vi) maintenance of RIC and BDC status. The 2022 Notes Indenture also contains certain covenants, including covenants (i) prohibiting our issuance of any senior securities unless, immediately after such issuance, we are in compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC), and, (ii) if our asset coverage has been below the 1940 Act minimum asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC) for more than six consecutive months, prohibiting the declaration of any cash dividend or distribution on our common stock (except to the extent necessary for us to maintain our treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code), or purchasing any of our common stock, unless, at the time of the declaration of the dividend or distribution or the purchase, and after deducting the amount of such dividend, distribution, or purchase, we are in compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC).

As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with our asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act and with the covenants under the terms of the Credit Facility and under the 2022 Notes Indenture. However, any continued increase in net unrealized depreciation on our investment portfolio or further significant reductions in our net asset value as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise increases the risk of (i) triggering the 1940 Act asset coverage covenants under the 2022 Notes Indenture, which would limit our ability to raise debt capital, pay distributions to our stockholders, and repurchase shares of our common stock, (ii) reducing our borrowing base under the Credit Facility or any future credit facility going forward, and (iii) breaching certain covenants under the Credit Facility, including but not limited to those relating to tangible net worth and debt service coverage ratio. In the event that unrealized depreciation in the fair value of portfolio investments included in the borrowing base of the Credit Facility or any future credit facility or other factors cause our aggregate outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility or such other credit facility to exceed the applicable borrowing base, we would be required to immediately prepay the lenders an amount equal to such excess amount. If we are unable to remit such payment or we otherwise breach a covenant under the Credit Facility, or are unable to cure any event of default or obtain a waiver from the lenders, the lenders may choose to foreclose upon and sell, or otherwise transfer, the collateral subject to their security interests, which comprises all of our assets as of June 30, 2020, and accelerate our repayment obligations under the Credit Facility. Any such event would have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and ability to pay distributions to our stockholders. In addition, if the lenders exercise their right to sell the assets pledged under the Credit Facility, such sales may be completed at distressed sale prices, thereby diminishing or potentially eliminating the amount of cash available to us after repayment of the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. See “Item 1A — “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to our Business and Structure” included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and the other risk factors contained therein and in our subsequent filings with the SEC, including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

51


We are also subject to financial risks, including changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2020, 52.6% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates (some of which were subject to interest rate floors), which generally are LIBOR-based. In addition, the Credit Facility has floating rate interest provisions. In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks have reduced certain interest rates and LIBOR has decreased. A prolonged reduction in interest rates will reduce our gross investment income and could result in a decrease in our net investment income if such decreases in LIBOR are not offset by a corresponding increase in the spread over LIBOR that we earn on any portfolio investments, a decrease in our operating expenses, or a decrease in the interest rate of our floating interest rate liabilities tied to LIBOR. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for an analysis of the impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates.

We will continue to monitor the rapidly evolving situation relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and related guidance from U.S. and international authorities, including federal, state and local public health authorities. Given the dynamic nature of this situation and the fact that there may be developments outside of our control that require us or our portfolio companies to adjust plans of operation, we cannot reasonably estimate the full impact of COVID-19 on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the future. However, we do expect that it could have a material adverse impact on our future net investment income, the fair value of our portfolio investments, and the results of operations and financial condition of us and our portfolio companies.

Portfolio
 
Portfolio Composition
 
As of June 30, 2020, we had $104.3 million (at fair value) invested in 22 portfolio companies. As of June 30, 2020, our portfolio was comprised of approximately 76.5% senior secured debt, 11.0% junior secured debt and 12.5% equity and equity-like investments.

As of December 31, 2019, we had $116.8 million (at fair value) invested in 25 portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2019, our portfolio was comprised of approximately 73.6% senior secured debt, 16.0% junior secured debt and 10.4% equity and equity-like investments.
  
We originate and invest primarily in privately held small and mid-sized companies (typically those with less than $15.0 million of EBITDA) through first lien and second lien debt, sometimes with a corresponding equity investment component. The composition of our investments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was as follows:
 
June 30, 2020December 31, 2019
CostFair ValueCostFair Value

Total Investments $114,312,461  $104,283,736  $123,449,705  $116,809,390  

At June 30, 2020, our average portfolio company debt investment at amortized cost and fair value was approximately $4.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and our largest portfolio company debt investment by amortized cost and fair value was approximately $13.4 million and $11.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 2019, our average portfolio company debt investment at amortized cost and fair value was approximately $4.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively, and our largest portfolio company debt investment by amortized cost and fair value was approximately $13.1 million and $11.6 million, respectively.
 
At June 30, 2020, 52.6% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates (some of which were subject to interest rate floors), such as LIBOR, and 47.4% of our debt investments bore interest at fixed rates. At December 31, 2019, 53.0% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates (some of which were subject to interest rate floors), such as LIBOR, and 47.0% bore interest at fixed rates.

The weighted average effective yield of our debt and other income-producing investments, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was 12.8% and 14.0%, respectively. The weighted average effective yield on the entire portfolio, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, was 9.0% and 11.3%, respectively.
52



The weighted average annualized effective yield on debt and other income-producing investments is computed using the effective interest rates for our debt and other income producing investments, including cash and PIK interest as well as the accretion of deferred fees. The individual investment yields are then weighted by the respective fair values of the investments (as of the date presented) in calculating the weighted average effective yield as a percentage of our debt and other income-producing investments. Infinite Care, LLC, ProAir Holdings Corporation, GK Holdings, Inc, and GNC were excluded from the calculation as of June 30, 2020 because they were on non-accrual status as of that date. Infinite Care, LLC and CP Holding Co., Inc. (Choice Pet) were excluded from the calculation as of December 31, 2019 because they were on non-accrual status as of that date. Equity components of the investment portfolio were also excluded from these calculations either because they do not have stated interest rates or are non-income producing. The weighted average annualized yield on total investments takes the same yields but weights them to determine the weighted average effective yield as a percentage of the Company's total investments. The dollar-weighted average annualized yield on the Company’s investments for a given period will generally be higher than what investors in our common stock would realize in a return over the same period because the dollar-weighted average annualized yield does not reflect the Company’s expenses or any sales load that may be paid by investors.

For investments that have a PIK interest component, PIK interest is accrued each period but generally not collected until the debt investment is sold or paid off. A roll forward of PIK interest for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 is summarized in the table below.

Investment Activity
 
During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we did not increase our debt investment commitments or make any new equity investments. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we closed $14.9 million of debt investment commitments and $3.0 million of equity investments in two new and three existing portfolio companies. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we closed $1.3 million of debt investment commitments and $0.2 million of equity investments in three existing portfolio companies. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we closed $36.3 million of debt investment commitments and $3.1 million of equity investments in seven new portfolio companies and four existing portfolio companies.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we exited $6.9 million of debt investment commitments in two portfolio companies and did not exit any equity investments. During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we exited $4.0 million of debt investment commitments in two portfolio companies. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we exited $9.0 million of debt investment commitments and $0.1 million in equity investments in three portfolio companies. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we exited $14.5 million of debt investment commitments and $0.2 million of equity investments.
 
Our level of investment activity can vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the level of merger and acquisition activity in our target market, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.
 
Asset Quality
 
In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, we use an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the credit profile and expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. This investment rating system uses a five-level numeric scale. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:
Investment Rating 1 is used for investments that are performing above expectations, and whose risks remain favorable compared to the expected risk at the time of the original investment.

53


Investment Rating 2 is used for investments that are performing within expectations and whose risks remain neutral compared to the expected risk at the time of the original investment. All new loans are initially rated 2.

Investment Rating 3 is used for investments that are performing below expectations and that require closer monitoring, but where no loss of return or principal is expected. Portfolio companies with a rating of 3 may be out of compliance with financial covenants.

Investment Rating 4 is used for investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment. These investments are often in workout. Investments with a rating of 4 are those for which there is an increased possibility of loss of return, but no loss of principal is expected.

Investment Rating 5 is used for investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment. These investments are almost always in workout. Investments with a rating of 5 are those for which loss of return and principal is expected.

Loans and Debt Securities on Non-Accrual Status
 
We do not accrue interest income on loans and debt securities if we doubt our ability to collect such interest. Generally, when an interest payment default occurs on a loan in the portfolio, when interest has not been paid for greater than 90 days, or when management otherwise believes that the issuer of the loan will not be able to service the loan and other obligations, we will place the loan on non-accrual status and will cease accruing interest income on that loan until all principal and interest is current through payment or until a restructuring occurs, such that the interest income is deemed collectible. However, collections actually received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as interest income on a cash basis or applied to principal depending on management's judgment regarding collectability. As of June 30, 2020, we had investments in four portfolio companies on non-accrual status (our senior secured debt investments in Infinite Care, LLC, our junior secured debt investment in ProAir Holdings Corporation, our junior secured debt investment in GK Holdings, Inc., and our senior secured debt investment in GNC), which comprised an aggregate of 20.1% of our debt investments at cost. As of December 31, 2019, we had investments in two portfolio companies on non-accrual status (our senior secured debt investments in Infinite Care, LLC and our junior secured debt investment in CP Holding Co., Inc. (Choice Pet)), which comprised an aggregate of 10.0% of our debt investments at cost. The failure by a borrower or borrowers to pay interest and repay principal could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

Results of Operations
 
An important measure of our financial performance is the net increase or decrease in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income, net realized gain or loss and net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Net investment income is the difference between our income from interest, distributions, fees and other investment income and our operating expenses, including interest on borrowed funds. Net realized gain or loss on investments is generally the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments is the net unrealized change in the fair value of our investment portfolio.

Comparison of the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019
 
Revenues
 
We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest income on debt investments and, to a lesser extent, capital gains on equity investments we make in portfolio companies. Our debt investments typically have terms of five to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest on our debt investments is payable at least quarterly. Payments of principal on our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt investments may pay interest in kind, or PIK. Any outstanding principal amount of our debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at the maturity date. The level of interest income we receive is directly related to the balance of interest-bearing investments multiplied by the weighted average yield of our investments. We expect that the dollar amount of interest and any dividend income that we earn to increase as the size of our investment portfolio increases. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment, commitment, loan origination, structuring or due diligence fees and consulting fees, which may be non-recurring in nature.

Investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $2.6 million, compared to investment income of $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was comprised primarily of $2.2 million in cash interest, $0.3 million in PIK interest, and $0.2 million in fees earned on the investment portfolio. Investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was comprised primarily of $2.5 million in cash interest, $0.2 million in PIK interest, and $0.2 million in fees earned on the investment portfolio. The decrease in investment income in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 is primarily attributable to a smaller income-earning portfolio, the addition of ProAir Holdings Corporation, GK Holdings, Inc., and GNC to our non-accrual assets and a lower weighted average effective yield on our income-earning portfolio.

Investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $5.9 million, compared to investment income of $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was comprised primarily of $5.0 million in cash interest, $0.5 million in PIK interest, and $0.3 million in fees earned on the investment portfolio. Investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was comprised primarily of $4.9 million in cash interest, $0.4 million in PIK interest, and $0.5 million in fees earned on the investment portfolio. The decrease in investment income in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 is primarily attributable to a smaller income-earning portfolio, the addition of ProAir Holdings Corporation, GK Holdings, Inc., and GNC to our non-accrual assets, and a lower weighted average effective yield on our income-earning portfolio.

Expenses
 
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of fees to HCAP Advisors under the investment advisory and management agreement, our allocable portion of overhead expenses and other administrative expenses under the administration agreement with HCAP Advisors and other operating costs described below. We bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, which include:

interest expense and unused line fees;

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

the cost of effecting sales and repurchases of 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;

transfer agent and custodial fees;

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

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

U.S. federal, state and local taxes;
55



independent directors’ fees and expenses;

brokerage commissions;

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

direct costs, such as printing, mailing, long distance telephone and staff;

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

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

Operating expenses totaled $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Interest expense increased by $0.3 million to $1.0 million due to a higher average outstanding debt balance and a higher weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under our Credit Facility during the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2020, we accelerated expensing approximately $0.1 million of deferred financing costs in accordance with ASC 470 Debt, due to the reduction in our borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility. Professional fees decreased from $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat at $0.2 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and the three months ended June 30, 2019. Professional fees and general and administrative expenses decreased as we reviewed all of our service providers in 2019 and changed certain service providers to more cost-effective solutions.

Operating expenses totaled $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Interest expense increased by $0.5 million to $1.9 million due to a higher average outstanding debt balance and a higher weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under our Credit Facility during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, we accelerated expensing approximately $0.1 million of deferred financing costs in accordance with ASC 470 Debt, due to the reduction in our borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility. Professional fees decreased from $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat at $0.5 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the six months ended June 30, 2019. Professional fees and general and administrative expenses decreased as we reviewed all of our service providers in 2019 and changed certain service providers to more cost-effective solutions.

Base management fees for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $0.5 million, compared to $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Base management fee for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $1.1 million, compared to $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in base management fees is attributable to a larger average amount of gross investments, at fair value, outstanding during the 2020 periods, as compared to the 2019 periods.

We did not incur any incentive fees for either of the three or six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019 because our pre-incentive fee net investment income did not exceed the hurdle rate for the relevant periods. We only incur an incentive fee if our pre-incentive fee net investment income return exceeds a 2.0% quarterly (8.0% annualized) hurdle rate. Our pre-incentive fee net investment income return failed to meet this hurdle rate with respect to each of the relevant periods in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. In addition, the incentive fees paid or owed to HCAP Advisors are subject to a three-year total return requirement, such that no incentive fee, in respect of pre-incentive fee net investment income, will be payable except to the extent 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations over the calendar quarter for which such fees are being calculated and the 11 preceding quarters exceeds the cumulative incentive fees paid or accrued over the 11 preceding quarters.

Administrative services expense was $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Administrative services expense was $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Net Investment Income
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, net investment income was $0.2 million, compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net investment income was $1.2 million, compared to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, net investment income per share was $0.03 compared to $0.14 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, net investment income per share was $0.20 compared to $0.26 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
 
Net Realized Gains and Losses
 
Realized gains and losses on investments are calculated using the specific identification method. We measure realized gains or losses on equity investments as the difference between the net proceeds from the sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized. We measure realized gains or losses on debt investments as the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the contractual amount owed to us on the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized or unamortized deferred fees. Upon prepayment of debt investments, we recognize the acceleration of unamortized deferred fees as interest income and we recognize the collection of prepayment and other fees as other income.
 
We recognized $2.2 million in net realized losses on our investments for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $26,901 of net realized gains on our investments in the three months ended June 30, 2019. We recognized $2.2 million in net realized losses on our investments for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $0.1 million of net realized gains on our investments in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

A summary of net realized gains and losses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 is as follows:

Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) of Investments
 
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) primarily reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

Net change in unrealized appreciation on investments totaled $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to a net change in unrealized depreciation of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in net unrealized appreciation between periods is primarily due to an improvement in general economic conditions since March 31, 2020 as well as improvement in the operations and liquidity of certain portfolio companies.

Net change in unrealized depreciation on investments totaled $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in net unrealized depreciation between periods is primarily the result of the adverse economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing uncertainty surrounding its long-term impact.
 
Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations
 
We had a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $0.1 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The change between periods are attributable to the factors discussed above.

We had a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a $0.1 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The change between periods are attributable to the factors discussed above.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our liquidity and capital resources are derived from our Credit Facility and cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments. Our primary use of funds from operations generally includes investments in portfolio companies and other operating expenses we incur, as well as the payment of distributions to the holders of our common stock. We used, and expect to continue to use, these capital resources as well as proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance any investment activities and for general corporate purposes.

We believe that our current cash on hand and our anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet our cash needs for our daily operations. This "Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources" section should be read in conjunction with "COVID-19 Update" above.

Cash Flows from Operating and Financing Activities
 
Our operating activities provided cash of $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and used cash of $15.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily in connection with investment exits, fundings of new investments, interest income received, and proceeds from principal payments.

Our financing activities used cash of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and provided cash of $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Our financing activity proceeds and uses for both periods were primarily in connection with distributions paid to stockholders and net activity under our Credit Facility and, for the 2019 period, repurchases of our common stock. 

Although we expect to fund the growth of our investment portfolio through the net proceeds from future equity offerings and issuances of senior securities or future borrowings to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, our plans to raise capital may not be successful. In this regard, for so long as our common stock trades at a price below our net asset value per share, we may be limited in our ability to raise equity capital given that we cannot sell our common stock at a price below net asset value per share unless our stockholders approve such a sale and our board of directors makes certain determinations in connection therewith. For all of 2020 to date and all of 2019, our common stock traded at a discount to our then-current net asset value. If
58


our common stock continues to trade at a discount to net asset value, we will be limited in our ability to raise equity capital unless we obtain the approval described above, which we have not requested from stockholders.
 
In addition, we intend to distribute between 90% and 100% of our taxable income to our stockholders in order to satisfy the requirements applicable to RICs under Subchapter M of the Code. Consequently, we may not have the funds or the ability to fund new investments, to make additional investments in our portfolio companies, to fund our unfunded commitments to portfolio companies or to repay borrowings. In addition, the illiquidity of our portfolio investments may make it difficult for us to sell these investments when desired and, if we are required to sell these investments, we may realize significantly less than their recorded value.
 
BDCs are generally required, upon issuing any senior securities, to meet a coverage ratio of total assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to total senior securities, which include all of the BDC's borrowings and any outstanding preferred stock, of at least 200%. However, the SBCAA, which was signed into law, in March 2018, among other things, amended Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act to add a new Section 61(a)(2) that reduces the asset coverage requirement applicable to BDCs from 200% to 150% so long as the BDC meets certain disclosure requirements and obtains certain approvals. On May 4, 2018, our board of directors unanimously approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act. As a result, effective May 4, 2019, our applicable asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act decreased to 150% from 200%.

As of June 30, 2020, our aggregate indebtedness, including outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility and the aggregate principal amount outstanding on our 2022 Notes, was $73.8 million, and our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, was 183%. The amount of leverage that we employ as a BDC will depend on our assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing, such as the maturity, covenant package and rate structure of the proposed borrowings, our ability to raise funds through the issuance of shares of our common stock and the risks of such borrowings within the context of our investment outlook. Ultimately, we only intend to use leverage if the expected returns from borrowing to make investments will exceed the cost of such borrowing.

On April 8, 2020, in connection with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the SEC issued the Order Under Sections 6(c), 17(d), 38(a) and 57(i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 Thereunder Granting Exemptions from Specified Provisions of the Investment Company Act and Certain Rules Thereunder, Investment Company Act Release No. 33837 (Apr. 8, 2020) (the “April 2020 Order”), which provides exemptions from certain requirements of the 1940 Act. Section II of the April 2020 Order (i) affords BDCs greater flexibility in calculating asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, (ii) requires a BDC’s board of directors, including a required majority of such board, as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act, to determine that the issuance or sale of covered senior securities is permitted by this Order and is in the best interests of the BDC and its stockholders, (iii) requires prior disclosure on Form 8-K of the election to rely on Section II of the April 2020 Order, and (iv) includes certain limitations on new investments, among other requirements detailed in the April 2020 Order.

In particular, election to be subject to Section II of the April 2020 Order would permit us to use a modified formula to calculate our asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements and, in doing so, would permit us to rely in part on the fair value of our assets as of December 31, 2019. The overall effect of any election to be subject to Section II of the April 2020 Order would be to make it easier for us to meet our applicable asset coverage ratios for purposes of the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, as well as for purposes of covenants referencing the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements, including under the 2022 Notes Indenture, which could result in the Company incurring additional leverage and being subject to the risks associated with additional leverage. As of the date of this filing, our board of directors has not elected to subject us to Section II of the April 2020 Order but will continue to assess its potential benefits to the Company with respect to providing additional flexibility to manage our portfolio and support our portfolio companies during the economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had cash and restricted cash of $30.2 million and $21.8 million, respectively.
 
Credit Facility

On October 29, 2013, we entered into the Loan and Security Agreement to provide us with our $45.0 million Credit Facility. The Credit Facility is secured by all of our assets, including our equity interest in HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC and HCAP ICC, LLC.
59



As of June 30, 2020, advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the applicable LIBOR plus 4.50% (with a 1.00% LIBOR floor) and (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. During the revolving period, availability under the Credit Facility is determined by advance rates against eligible loans in the borrowing base up to a maximum aggregate availability of $44.3 million. Advance rates against individual investments range from 40% to 65% depending on the seniority of the investment in the borrowing base.

In addition, as of June 30, 2020, the Credit Facility included the following terms, among other things: (i) a revolving period scheduled to expire on July 31, 2020 (please see "Recent Developments" below for information regarding the extension of the revolving period to October 31, 2020); (ii) provides for a senior leverage ratio (the ratio of total borrowed money other than subordinated debt and unsecured longer-term indebtedness to equity) of 1-to-1; (iii) provides for a total leverage ratio (the ratio of total debt to equity) of 1.4-to-1; (iv) additional advances requested under the Credit Facility will be made only at the discretion of the lenders; (v) aggregate commitments under the Loan and Security Agreement are $45.0 million; (vi) a tangible net worth covenant that reflects a minimum amount equal to $58.0 million; (vii) an effective limitation on the aggregate value of eligible loans in the borrowing base to maximum of approximately $44.3 million; (viii) requires us to pay a monthly fee of 0.50% per annum for unused amounts during the revolving period, calculated based on the difference between (a) the maximum loan amount under the Loan and Security Agreement and (b) the average daily principal balance of the obligations outstanding during the prior calendar month; (iv) prohibits us from repurchasing shares of our common stock and declaring and paying any distribution or dividend until the termination of the Loan and Security Agreement, except, in the case of distributions and dividends, to the extent necessary for us to maintain our eligibility to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code; (x) includes a minimum liquidity covenant threshold of least $2.2 million through termination of the Loan and Security Agreement; and (xi) permits the use of an Alternative Rate (as defined in the Loan and Security Agreement) in place of LIBOR if certain conditions are satisfied.

The Credit Facility contains additional customary terms and conditions, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants, including, without limitation, information reporting requirements, a minimum debt-service coverage ratio, and maintenance of RIC and BDC status. The Credit Facility also contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, change of control, and the occurrence of a material adverse effect. In addition, the Credit Facility provides that, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any event of default, our administration agreement could be terminated and a backup administrator could be substituted by the agent.

The maturity date under the Credit Facility is the earlier of (x) October 30, 2021, or (y) the date that is six months prior to the maturity of any of our outstanding unsecured long-term indebtedness. Based on our outstanding 2022 Notes that mature on September 15, 2022, the maturity date under the Credit Facility is October 30, 2021. HCAP Equity Holdings, LLC became a co-borrower under the Credit Facility in August 2016, and HCAP ICC, LLC, became a borrower under the Credit Facility in November 2017.

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $45.0 million and $43.7 million, respectively.

See "Recent Developments" below for more information relating to the Credit Facility.

2022 Notes

On August 24, 2017, we closed the public offering of $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 2022 Notes. On September 1, 2017, we closed on an additional $3.75 million in aggregate principal amount of 2022 Notes to cover the over-allotment option exercised by the underwriters. In total, we issued 1,150,000 of the 2022 Notes at a price of $25.00 per Note. The total net proceeds from the issuance of the 2022 Notes, after deducting underwriting discounts of $0.9 million and offering expenses of $0.2 million, were $27.7 million. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Notes was $28.8 million and the debt issuance costs balance was $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Notes was $28.8 million and the debt issuance costs balance was $0.6 million. We used the proceeds of the 2022 Notes to redeem our 7.00% Notes due 2020 in full on September 23, 2017.

The 2022 Notes mature on September 15, 2022 and bear interest at a rate of 6.125%. They are redeemable in whole or in part at any time at our option after September 15, 2019 at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2022 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 2022 Notes are unsecured obligations and rank pari passu with any existing and future unsecured indebtedness; senior to any of our future indebtedness that expressly provides it is subordinated to the 2022
60


Notes; effectively subordinated to all of the existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, including borrowings under the Credit Facility; and structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of any subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities we may form in the future, with respect to claims on the assets of any such subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities. Interest on the 2022 Notes is payable quarterly on March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 of each year. The 2022 Notes are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the trading symbol “HCAPZ.” The Company may from time to time repurchase 2022 Notes in accordance with the 1940 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

The 2022 Notes Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants (i) prohibiting our issuance of any senior securities unless, immediately after such issuance, we are in compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC); (ii) if our asset coverage has been below the 1940 Act minimum asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC) for more than six consecutive months, prohibiting the declaration of any cash dividend or distribution on our common stock (except to the extent necessary for us to maintain our treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code), or purchasing any of our common stock, unless, at the time of the declaration of the dividend or distribution or the purchase, and after deducting the amount of such dividend, distribution, or purchase, we are in compliance with the 1940 Act asset coverage requirements (after giving effect to any exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC); and (iii) requiring us to provide financial information to the holders of the 2022 Notes and the Trustee if we cease to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. These covenants are subject to limitations and exceptions that are described in the 2022 Notes Indenture.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We may be a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. As of June 30, 2020, our only off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of $3.2 million of unfunded revolving lines of credit and delayed draw term loans to seven of our portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2019, our only off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of $3.1 million of unfunded revolving lines of credit and delayed draw term loans to seven of our portfolio companies.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the use of estimates that involve the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties. Our most critical accounting policies involve decisions and assessments that could affect our reported assets and liabilities, as well as our reported revenues and expenses. We believe that all of the decisions and assessments upon which our consolidated financial statements are based are reasonable at the time made and based upon information available to use at that time. We rely upon a thorough valuation process, which includes, for certain portfolio investments, the input of an external independent third-party valuation firm to arrive at what we believe to be reasonable estimates of fair value, whenever available. As of June 30, 2020, our investment portfolio had a fair value of $104.3 million and we recognized $1.2 million of net unrealized appreciation and $3.4 million of net unrealized depreciation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. For more information on our fair value measurements, see Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. For a review of our significant accounting policies and the recent accounting pronouncements that may impact our results of operations, see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Regulated Investment Company Status and Distributions
 
We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. If we receive RIC tax treatment, we will not be taxed on our investment company taxable income or realized net capital gains, to the extent that such taxable income or gains are distributed, or deemed to be distributed, to stockholders on a timely basis.
 
Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation until realized. Distributions declared and paid by us in a year may differ from taxable income for that year as such dividends may include the distribution of current year taxable income or the distribution of prior year taxable income carried forward into and distributed in the current year. Distributions also may include returns of capital.
 
To receive RIC tax treatment, the Company is required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests in addition to distributing at least 90% of ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term
61


capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. As a RIC, the Company will be subject to a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless the Company distributes in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the 1-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax.
 
We intend to distribute to our stockholders between 90% and 100% of our annual taxable income (which includes our taxable interest and fee income). However, the covenants contained in the Credit Facility and in the 2022 Notes Indenture may prohibit us from making distributions to our stockholders, and, as a result, could hinder our ability to satisfy the distribution requirement. In addition, we may retain for investment some or all of our net taxable capital gains (i.e., realized net long-term capital gains in excess of realized net short-term capital losses) and treat such amounts as deemed distributions to our stockholders. If we do this, our stockholders will be treated as if they received actual distributions of the capital gains we retained and then reinvested the net after-tax proceeds in our common stock. Our stockholders also may be eligible to claim tax credits (or, in certain circumstances, tax refunds) equal to their allocable share of the tax we paid on the capital gains deemed distributed to them. To the extent our taxable earnings for a fiscal taxable year fall below the total amount of our distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our stockholders.
  
We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act and due to provisions in the Credit Facility and the 2022 Notes Indenture. For example, we are prohibited under the Loan and Security Agreement from declaring and paying any distribution or dividend, except to the extent necessary for us to maintain our eligibility to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any dividends or distributions at a particular level.

In this regard, on March 12, 2020, we announced monthly distributions of $0.08 per share payable on each of April 30, 2020 (the "March 2020 Dividend) and May 28, 2020 (the "April 2020 Dividend) to record holders as of April 23, 2020 and May 21, 2020, respectively. However, our board of directors has decided to defer the record date and payment of each of the March 2020 Dividend and the April 2020 Dividend and has determined to suspend the declaration of any future dividends until such later time as our board of directors determines is prudent in light of our capital needs and contractual obligations, and in our stockholders' best interests.
 
In accordance with certain applicable Treasury regulations and private letter rulings issued by the Internal Revenue Service, a RIC may treat a distribution of its own stock as fulfilling its RIC distribution requirements if each stockholder may elect to receive his or her entire distribution in either cash or stock of the RIC, subject to a limitation that the aggregate amount of cash to be distributed to all stockholders must be at least 10% of the aggregate declared distribution for distributions declared on or before December 31, 2020, and at least 20% of the aggregate declared distribution for distributions declared on or after January 1, 2021. If too many stockholders elect to receive cash, the cash available for distribution must be allocated among each stockholder electing to receive cash (with the balance of the distribution paid in stock). In no event will any stockholder, electing to receive cash, receive less than the lesser of (a) the portion of the distribution such stockholder has elected to receive in cash, or (b) an amount equal to his or her entire distribution times the percentage limitation on cash available for distribution. If these and certain other requirements are met, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of the dividend paid in stock will be equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of stock.
 
Recent Developments

On August 6, 2020, we entered into the Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which amended the Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) extend the revolving period to October 31, 2020, until which date we may receive additional advances at the discretion of the lenders; and (ii) commence the amortization period beginning August 1, 2020.

During the amortization period, the limit on our debt service coverage ratio under the Credit Facility decreases to 1.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter, from 1.40 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter prior to the amortization period. In addition, we are required during the amortization period to pay down the principal amount outstanding under the Credit Facility on a monthly basis in equal installments during the relevant calendar quarter so that such outstanding amounts will be reduced by an amount equal to or greater than (i) $2.2 million for each of the first two full calendar quarters following July 31, 2020, (ii) $3.3 million for each of the succeeding two full calendar quarters and (iii) $4.3 million for each succeeding calendar quarter until termination of the Credit Facility, which is scheduled to mature on October 30, 2021. During the amortization period, 90% of
62


all principal collections we receive from our portfolio companies must generally be paid to the lenders to pay down our obligations and other amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. In addition, any proceeds we receive from the sale or issuance of our equity or debt securities during the amortization period must generally be applied to the prepayment of our obligations under the Credit Facility.

Subsequent to June 30, 2020, one of the members of HCAP Advisors’ investment committee (the "Investment Committee"), Carter Mack, resigned from his position as President of JMP Group and, as a result, will no longer serve on the Investment Committee. Following Mr. Mack’s resignation, the Investment Committee, which is responsible for approving all key investment decisions that are made by HCAP Advisors on our behalf, is comprised of four members: Joseph Jolson (our Chief Executive officer and Chairman of our board of directors), Richard Buckanavage (our President), James Fowler (our Chief Investment Officer) and Bryan B. Hamm, the President of Medalist Partners Corporate Finance LLC. All key investment decisions made by HCAP Advisors on our behalf, including screening, initial approvals, final commitment, funding, and material amendments, require approval from three of the four members of the Investment Committee and must include the approval of Mr. Jolson and Mr. Buckanavage.

In addition, subsequent to June 30, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the related effects on the U.S. and global economies, has continued to have adverse consequences for the business operations of certain of our portfolio companies and has adversely affected, and threatens to continue to adversely affect, our operations and the operations of HCAP Advisors. Given the dynamic nature of this situation, we cannot reasonably estimate the full impact of COVID-19 on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the future. However, we do expect that it could have a material adverse impact on our future net investment income, the fair value of our portfolio investments, and the results of operations and financial condition of us and our portfolio companies. See “COVID-19 Update” above for more information.

Item 3.          Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We are subject to market risk. Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. The prices of securities held by us may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies we invest in; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; legislative reform; local, regional, national or global political, social or economic instability; and interest rate fluctuations. In addition, U.S. and global capital markets and credit markets have experienced a higher level of stress due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in an increase in the level of volatility across such markets and in values of publicly-traded securities. Any continuation of the stresses on capital markets and credit markets, or a further increase in volatility could result in a contraction of available credit for us and/or an inability by us to access the equity or debt capital markets or could otherwise cause an inability or unwillingness of our lenders to fund their commitments to us or of any lenders generally extend credit to us, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

We are also subject to interest rate risks. Changes in the general level of interest rates can affect our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on our interest-earning assets and our interest expense in connection with our interest-bearing debt and liabilities. In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks have reduced certain interest rates and LIBOR has decreased. A prolonged reduction in interest rates will reduce our gross investment income and could result in a decrease in our net investment income if such decreases in LIBOR are not offset by a corresponding increase in the spread over LIBOR that we earn on any portfolio investments, a decrease in our operating expenses, or a decrease in the interest rate of our floating interest rate liabilities tied to LIBOR. As of June 30, 2020, fifteen of our loans, or 52.6% of the fair value of our portfolio, carried interest at floating rates. In addition, as of June 30, 2020, advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the applicable LIBOR plus 4.50% (with a 1.00% LIBOR floor) and (ii) the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.

Assuming that the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2020 were to remain constant and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate sensitivity, a hypothetical 100 basis points increase in LIBOR would increase our net investment income by a maximum of $0.3 million. Similarly, a hypothetical 100 basis points decrease in LIBOR would decrease our net income by a de minimis amount. Although we believe that this measure is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for potential changes in credit quality, size and composition of the assets on the balance sheet and other business developments that could affect net increase in net assets resulting from operations, or net income. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from the potential outcome simulated by this estimate.

63


Because we have previously borrowed, and plan to borrow in the future, money to make investments, our net investment income will be dependent upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds and the rate at which we invest the funds borrowed. 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. In periods of rising interest rates, our cost of funds would increase, which could reduce our net investment income if there is not a corresponding increase in interest income generated by our investment portfolio.

We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contacts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. We have not engaged in any hedging activities to date.

In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with a new index calculated by short term repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities, called the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). SOFR is a measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight, collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities, and is based on directly observable U.S. Treasury-backed repurchase transactions. Whether or not SOFR attains market traction as a LIBOR replacement remains a question and the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain.

The expected discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on our business. We typically use LIBOR as a reference rate in loans we extend to portfolio companies such that the interest due to us pursuant to a loan extended to a portfolio company is calculated using LIBOR. As of June 30, 2020, we had a total of $44.2 million principal balance, or 43.6% of the principal balance of our debt investment portfolio, in such LIBOR-linked debt investments whose maturity dates extend past December 31, 2021. If LIBOR ceases to exist, we may need to renegotiate these debt investments extending beyond 2021 to replace LIBOR with the new standard that is established in its place or another pricing method, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to receive attractive returns. In addition, if LIBOR ceases to exist beyond 2021, any credit facility to which we are a party that extends beyond 2021 will need to implement the new standard that is established in the place of LIBOR or another pricing method.

Alteration of the terms of a debt instrument or a modification of the terms of other types of contracts to replace an interbank offered rate with a new reference rate could result in a taxable exchange and the realization of income and gain/loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The IRS has issued proposed regulations regarding the tax consequences of the transition from interbank offered rates to new reference rates in debt instruments and non-debt contracts. Under the proposed regulations, to avoid such alteration or modifications of the terms of a debt instrument being treated as a taxable exchange, among other requirements, the fair market value of the modified instrument or contract must be substantially equivalent to its fair market value before the qualifying change was made. The IRS may withdraw, amend or finalize, in whole or part, these proposed regulations and/or provide additional guidance, with potential retroactive effect. Beyond these challenges, we anticipate there may be additional risks to our current processes and information systems that will need to be identified and evaluated by us.

Given the current uncertainties over LIBOR’s discontinuation and the replacement alternatives, it is not possible at this time to predict the effect of any such changes, any establishment of alternative reference rates, or any other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere, including any impact on our LIBOR-linked debt investments that mature after December 31, 2021. In addition, any further changes or reforms to the determination or supervision of LIBOR may result in a sudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR, which could have an adverse impact on the market value for or value of any LIBOR-linked securities, loans, and other financial obligations or extensions of credit held by or due to us and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


Item 4.          Controls and Procedures.
 
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As of June 30, 2020 (the end of the period covered by this report), we, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
64


within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item  1.          Legal Proceedings

Neither we, HCAP Advisors, nor our subsidiaries are currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our respective businesses, and no such material proceedings are known to be contemplated. We, HCAP Advisors, and our subsidiaries may from time to time, however, be involved in litigation arising out of our operations in the normal course of business or otherwise, including the enforcement of our rights under the contracts with our portfolio companies. Third parties may also seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of our portfolio companies. While we cannot predict the outcome of these legal proceedings with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes during the three months ended June 30, 2020 to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which you should carefully consider before making a decision to purchase our securities, and which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations. Any such risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or operating results, as well as the market price of our securities.
