BlackRock Capital Investment Corporation Reports Financial Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2019, Declares Third Quarter Distribution of $0.14 per Share
- GAAP Net Investment Income (“NII”) of $0.16 per share providing second quarter distribution coverage of approximately 91%.
- Net Asset Value (“NAV”) per share decreased 4.6% or $0.33 per share to $6.82 per share on a quarter-over-quarter basis.
- Net leverage of 0.53x was up, driven by increased pace of investment deployment. Total liquidity for portfolio company investments, including cash, was approximately $260 million, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions.
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–BlackRock Capital Investment Corporation (NASDAQ:BKCC) (“BCIC” or the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) announced today that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly distribution of $0.14 per share, payable on October 7, 2019 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 16, 2019.
“The strength of our expanded origination and underwriting platform evidenced itself in the second quarter, with gross and net deployments of $106 million and $60 million, respectively. We added twelve new portfolio companies and made add-on investments in five existing portfolio companies. The increased scale and capabilities of our platform following the integration of Tennenbaum Capital Partners LLC, or TCP, with the Company’s adviser, BlackRock Capital Investment Advisors, LLC enable us to provide holistic financing solutions to our borrowers. Additionally, our ability to co-invest with affiliated funds facilitates the deployment of capital in a granular fashion, thereby reducing portfolio risk by increasing issuer and sector diversity. Our deployment activity during the quarter drove net leverage to 0.53x compared to 0.37x previous quarter, moving us closer towards our target deployment levels. For the third quarter, we anticipate deployments to remain robust based on our current pipeline and completed investments thus far,” commented James E. Keenan, Chairman and Interim CEO of the Company.
“Our net unrealized and realized losses of $21.8 million (or $0.31 per share) were primarily concentrated in certain equity or equity-like non-core legacy investments. Our investment in the equity of US Well Services, Inc. (“USWS”) alone resulted in $12.5 million of unrealized loss (or $0.18 per share), driven by the decline in its trading price. We anticipate that the valuation of our USWS investment will continue to shift in line with the quarter-end closing prices of the USWS stock. During the quarter, we reduced risk in our legacy investment in Sur La Table by decreasing our exposure in that investment from $30 million to $21 million, while improving the credit profile. Our legacy non-core portfolio was 28% of the total portfolio by fair market value at the end of second quarter, down from 33% at prior quarter. We continue to focus on orderly and advantageous exits or reductions of these non-core legacy positions which have been a source of NAV volatility.
“The decision to reset the distribution level has been driven by the necessity to align the distribution with the current earnings power of the Company. Over the past years, the underperformance of certain legacy investments has weighed on the earnings capability of the Company. We believe that this distribution level will provide our shareholders with more stable and consistent returns. We are committed to creating long-term shareholder value by (i) progressing towards the exit of certain non-core assets on a prudent basis, (ii) redeploying into a more diverse portfolio with a greater mix of 1st lien assets and (iii) increasing our target leverage ratio while reducing downside risk. We believe that this will enable us to generate better returns on equity and bring the earnings power of the company in line with the sector.
“Under BlackRock’s management of BCIC, from March 6, 2015 to June 30, 2019, we have deployed capital of approximately $1.1 billion, of which $411 million has been exited with a realized IRR of 14.1%. With liquidity at approximately $260 million and no debt maturities until 2022, we have significant operating flexibility and deployment capacity.”

Supplemental Information
The Company reports its financial results on a GAAP basis; however, management believes that evaluating the Company’s ongoing operating results may be enhanced if investors have additional non-GAAP basis financial measures. Management reviews non-GAAP financial measures to assess ongoing operations and, for the reasons described below, considers them to be effective indicators, for both management and investors, of the Company’s financial performance over time. The Company’s management does not advocate that investors consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
After March 6, 2017, incentive management fees based on income have been calculated for each calendar quarter and are paid on a quarterly basis if certain thresholds are met. The Company records its liability for incentive management fees based on capital gains by performing a hypothetical liquidation at the end of each reporting period. The accrual of this hypothetical capital gains incentive management fee is required by GAAP, but it should be noted that a fee so calculated and accrued is not due and payable until the end of the measurement period, or every June 30. The incremental incentive management fees disclosed for a given period are not necessarily indicative of actual full year results.
