Portfolio and Investment Activity
During the quarter ended December 31, 2011, we advanced an additional $15.0 million to ATP Oil & Gas Corporation, or ATP, of Houston, Texas, under our limited-term overriding royalty interest in certain offshore oil and gas producing properties operated by ATP in the Gulf of Mexico. This $15.0 million investment is in addition to the $25.0 million advanced to ATP under this arrangement in June 2011 and brings our total investment in the ATP limited-term overriding royalty interest to $28.4 million as of December 31, 2011. As part of the additional advance, we increased the contractual rate of return on the total investment from 13.0% to 14.0%, effective January 1, 2012. Other investments for the period include $2.8 million to Spirit Resources, LLC and $0.4 million for the purchase of oil put options in connection with our ATP investment. Also during the fourth quarter of 2011, we received principal repayments totaling $13.4 million, primarily consisting of partial repayments from ATP, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation 2007-III Drilling Fund and Tammany Oil & Gas LLC.
At December 31, 2011, our targeted investment portfolio consisted of 19 portfolio companies with an aggregate fair value totaling $145.1 million. The weighted average yield on targeted portfolio investments (on a cost basis and exclusive of capital gains or losses) was 11.6% at December 31, 2011, compared to 11.3% at September 30, 2011 and 10.4% at December 31, 2010. This weighted average yield figure is the highest we have reported in over three years.
During the first quarter of 2012, we purchased $7.1 million face amount of Southern Pacific Resources Corp. ("STP") Second Tier Term Loan (the "STP Term Loan") in the secondary market, for a total of $7.2 million, or an average price of 101.32. This STP Term Loan was originally issued in January 2011, matures in January 2016, and pays interest at a floating rate which is currently 10.75% per annum, for an effective yield of 10.6%. Proceeds from the STP Term Loan are being used to construct an oil treatment facility in the Canadian oil sands region in Alberta, Canada.
Operating Results – Three months ended December 31, 2011
Investment income totaled $5.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, compared to $6.1 million in the corresponding quarter of 2010. This decrease is primarily attributable to lower portfolio balances. The aggregate fair value of our targeted investment portfolio decreased from $216.1 million at December 31, 2010 to $145.1 million at December 31, 2011, primarily as a result of the July 2011 sale of our investments in Alden Resources, LLC ("Alden") and Gatliff Services, LLC ("Gatliff") for total cash consideration of $73.2 million, reducing the value of our investments in BioEnergy Holdings, LLC ("BioEnergy") and Bionol Clearfield, LLC ("Bionol") from $21.8 million to zero during 2011, partially offset by higher average yields and other net investment activity. Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 were $2.8 million, decreasing 7% compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, primarily as a result of lower base management fees on the lower total asset balances. The resulting net investment income was $2.2 million, or $0.10 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, compared to $3.1 million, or $0.14 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.
We had net realized capital losses of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, related to accrual adjustments regarding costs associated with the sale of our investment in Alden. We recorded $33.3 million of realized capital losses in the fourth quarter of 2010, primarily related to the sale of our investment in Formidable, LLC.
During the three months ended December 31, 2011, we recorded net increases in unrealized depreciation on portfolio investments totaling $2.3 million, primarily as a result of a $2.4 million mark-to-market reduction in the fair value of our GMX Resources, Inc. ("GMXR") Senior Convertible Notes due 2013, with other net changes in fair value virtually offsetting one another.
Overall, we had a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and, after declaring dividends during the period of $0.18 per common share, our net asset value declined from $9.45 as of September 30, 2011 to $9.26 per common share as of December 31, 2011.
Fiscal Year 2011 Highlights
Total investment income for 2011 was $27.9 million, increasing $4.3 million, or 18%, compared to 2010. Net investment income for 2011 was $15.8 million, increasing $4.4 million, or 38%, compared to 2010. These increases in 2011 are largely attributable to the recognition of $4.5 million of previously unrecognized PIK interest on Tranche B of Alden's Term Loan.
We had net realized and unrealized losses totaling $35.7 million, or $1.65 per share, in 2011, which included reductions in the estimated fair value of our investments in BioEnergy and Bionol totaling $21.8 million, realized losses and fair value adjustments on Alden and Gatliff totaling $8.3 million, net reductions in fair value of our investments in Black Pool Energy Partners, LLC and GMXR of $3.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, and other net gains totaling $1.0 million.
Overall, we had a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $19.9 million, or $0.92 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2011, and we declared dividends during 2011 totaling $0.72 per share, an increase of $0.03 per share, or 4%, compared to 2010.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, we received cash repayments and realizations totaling $151.5 million; and we reinvested $106.5 million in new investments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $106.6 million. The amount outstanding under our Investment Facility at December 31, 2011 was $50.0 million and an additional $19.1 million was available for borrowing. We repaid the $50.0 million balance outstanding on our Investment Facility in January 2012. As of December 31, 2011, we had no outstanding indebtedness under the Treasury Facility and the entire $30.0 million was available for borrowing.
