*	Denotes that all or a portion of the investment is held as collateral by Garrison Funding 2018-2 Ltd.

**	Denotes that all or a portion of the loan is held as collateral by Garrison Capital SBIC LP.

Base Rate = Our floating rate investments bear interest at a base rate plus a spread. Generally, the borrower has an option to choose whether the base rate is referenced to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or the prime rate. The spread may change as a result of the borrower’s choice of base rate. In addition, the floating rate investments that are referenced to LIBOR are generally indexed to 30-day or 90-day U.S. Dollar LIBOR and subject to a minimum LIBOR Floor. The terms disclosed in the consolidated schedule of investments represent the actual base rate and spread in effect as of the reporting date.

All securities above were valued with significant unobservable inputs. Refer to Note 3 of our consolidated financial statements for additional disclosures regarding the unobservable inputs used in fair value measurement.

(1)

Not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Under the 1940 Act, Garrison Capital Inc. (the “Company”) may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company’s total assets. As of March 31, 2020, 92.1% of the Company’s assets were qualifying assets.

(2)	Held through Garrison Capital Equity Holdings II LLC and net of non-controlling member’s interest of 17.5% pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Garrison Capital Equity Holdings II LLC.

(3)	Interest is payable in cash, and/or payment-in-kind (“PIK”), or a combination thereof.

(4)

Investment is structured as a unitranche loan in which the Company holds the last out component. As a result, in addition to the interest earned on the stated base rate and spread of this investment, the Company may receive additional interest during the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to an arrangement between the Company and certain other lenders to the portfolio company. The additional interest received during the quarter has been annualized and included in the spread disclosed for this investment.

(5)	Investment is currently not income producing and placed on non-accrual status.

(6)	The negative fair value is the result of the unfunded commitments being valued below par. These amounts may or may not be funded to the borrowing party currently or in the future.

As required by the 1940 Act, investments are classified by level of control. “Control Investments” are investments in those companies that the Company is deemed to control as defined in the 1940 Act. “Affiliate Investments” are investments in those companies that are affiliated companies, as defined in the 1940 Act, other than Control Investments. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.

Generally, under the 1940 Act, the Company is deemed to control a company in which it has invested if it owns more than 25% of the voting securities of such company. The Company is deemed to be an affiliate of a company in which it has invested if it owns 5% or more of the voting securities of such company.

All debt investments were income producing as of March 31, 2020, unless otherwise noted. Common and preferred equity investments are non income-producing unless otherwise noted.

Base Rate = Our floating rate investments bear interest at a base rate plus a spread. Generally, the borrower has an option to choose whether the base rate is referenced to LIBOR or the prime rate. The spread may change as a result of the borrower’s choice of base rate. In addition, the floating rate investments that are referenced to LIBOR are generally indexed to 30-day or 90-day U.S. Dollar LIBOR and subject to a minimum LIBOR Floor. The terms disclosed in the consolidated schedule of investments represent the actual base rate and spread in effect as of the reporting period date.

1. Organization

Garrison Capital Inc. (“GARS” and, collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is a Delaware corporation and is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has filed an election to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, for tax purposes, GARS 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”), for the period beginning October 9, 2012 and intends to qualify annually thereafter. GARS’ shares trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GARS”.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation by assembling a broad portfolio of loans and debt securities in U.S. based companies. The companies to which we typically extend credit to are moderately leveraged and have been rated below investment grade by national rating agencies. For companies that have not been rated, we believe that they would typically receive a rating below investment grade. In addition, our investments typically range in maturity from one to seven years. However, we may make investments in securities with any maturity or duration. We invest opportunistically in loans and debt securities that we believe have attractive risk adjusted returns. We also, to a lesser extent, may make select minority equity investments (usually in conjunction with a concurrent debt investment) in non-investment grade companies. Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. remains engaged as our board of directors’ (the “Board”) financial advisor and investment banker as the Board continues its review of a variety of strategic alternatives that we believe will enhance value for our stockholders. Pending completion of our review of strategic alternatives, we may limit our investment activities and may hold any prepayments or repayments of principal on our investments in cash rather than redeploying in new investment opportunities.

The Company’s business and affairs are managed and controlled by the Company’s Board. The majority of the members of the Board are independent of the Company and its affiliates. Our investment activities and day-to-day operations are managed by Garrison Capital Advisers, LLC (the “Investment Adviser”), and Garrison Capital Administrator, LLC (the “GARS Administrator”) provides the Company with certain administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations. We are organized as a holding company and conduct our business primarily through our various subsidiaries.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Updates

Basis of Presentation

The Company is an investment company as defined in the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 — Financial Services — Investment Companies (“ASC Topic 946”).

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications consisting solely of normal accruals that are necessary for the fair presentation of financial results as of and for the periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Updates – (continued)

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GARS and its subsidiaries. The accounts of the subsidiaries are prepared using consistent accounting policies and as of the same reporting period as GARS. Under ASC Topic 946, the Company is generally precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company. Accordingly, the Company consolidates any investment company when it owns 100% of its equity units or 100% of the economic equity interest. ASC Topic 946 also provides for the consolidation of a controlled operating company that provides substantially all of its services to the investment company or its consolidated subsidiaries.

As a result, as of March 31, 2020 GARS has consolidated the results of Garrison Funding 2018-2 Ltd. (“GF 2018-2”), Garrison Funding 2018-2 LLC, Garrison Capital SBIC LP (“Garrison SBIC”), Garrison Capital PL Holdings LLC, GIG Rooster Holdings I LLC and a series of limited liability companies that GARS created primarily to provide specific tax treatment for the equity and other investments held in these limited liability companies.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, including the estimated fair values of investments and the amount of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, cash held in designated bank accounts with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the “Custodian”) was $2.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Cash held in designated bank accounts with other major financial institutions was $0.1 million and $0.1 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. At times, these balances may exceed federally insured limits and this potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of credit risk. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk associated with the Custodian.

The Company defines cash equivalents as highly liquid financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less, including those held in overnight sweep bank deposit accounts. As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company held no cash equivalents.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted

Restricted cash as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 included cash of $29.6 million and $39.1 million, respectively, held by GF 2018-2 and Garrison SBIC in designated bank accounts with the Custodian. Our CLO (as defined in Note 4) is required to use a portion of its cash to pay interest expense, reduce borrowings at the end of the investment period and to pay other amounts in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing our CLO. Cash held with Garrison SBIC is typically restricted to funding eligible small business investment company (“SBIC”) investments and the payment of the principal and interest expense of the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) debentures. As a result, funds held by GF 2018-2 and Garrison SBIC are not available for general use by the Company.

As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company held no restricted cash equivalents.

Revenue Recognition

In general, we generate revenue on our investments that primarily consists of interest income, fee income, dividend income and gains and losses.

Interest income: Interest income is comprised of cash interest, PIK interest, original issue discounts or premiums as well as any loan origination, facility and commitment fees. Cash and PIK interest income is accrued based on the outstanding principal amount and interest terms outlined in the respective contractual agreement that governs that investment. The Company records interest income if it expects that it ultimately will be able to collect such income. Loan origination fees and any original issue or purchase discounts or premiums received by the Company are initially capitalized and deferred and reduce or increase the cost basis of the investment. They are subsequently accreted into interest income over the stated term of the loan.

Similarly, commitment fees are based upon the undrawn portion committed by the Company and are accrued over the life of the loan. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized fees, discounts or premiums are recorded into income.

Fee and dividend income: Fee income is generally comprised of amendment, forbearance, prepayment, syndication, structuring, diligence, consulting and possible fees for providing managerial assistance to a portfolio company and may be received in the form of cash or PIK. Amendment and forbearance fees are generally received in connection with loan amendments or waivers and are recognized upon completion of the amendments or waivers, generally when such fees are receivable. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities into income when we receive such amounts.

Structuring, diligence fees, consulting and managerial assistance fees for periodically providing services to a portfolio or third party company are recognized when such services have been completed and the fees are generally receivable. Any such fee income received is recorded and classified as other income and included in investment income on the consolidated statements of operations. As these fees are generally paid and recognized in connection with specific loan event or the performance of a service, there may be significant fluctuations from period to period in the amount and size of such fees, and they are typically non-recurring in nature.

In addition, the Company may receive periodic dividends or distributions from our preferred or equity investments. Such amounts are recorded and classified as other income. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.

To the extent distributions are received from a limited liability company or limited partnership investment, we will evaluate the distribution to determine if it should be recorded as income or return of capital. Generally, we will not record such distributions as income unless there is sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.

Investment gains and losses: Realized gains and losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to any previously recognized unrealized changes in the investments’ fair value. Net changes in unrealized gains and losses on investments reflect the current period changes in the fair value of our investments, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains and losses on investments that are realized. Both realized and changes in unrealized gains and losses are recorded using the specific identification method on the consolidated statement of operations.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Updates – (continued)

Non-accrual loans: The Company records interest income, fee income and dividends based on the contractual interest terms of its investments if it expects that it will ultimately be able to collect it. Generally, when management believes that the issuer of the loan will not be able to service the loan, the Investment Adviser will place the loan on non-accrual status and the Company will cease recognizing interest income on that loan. However, the Company remains contractually entitled to this interest. The Company may restore an investment to accrual status when past due principal and interest payments are made or if the interest income is otherwise deemed to be collectible by the Investment Adviser. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had four investments on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had two investments on non-accrual status.

Investments, at Fair Value

The Company records its investment transactions on a trade date basis, which is the date when management has determined that all material legal terms have been contractually defined for the transactions. These transactions generally settle on a subsequent date which may depend on the type of transaction. Any amounts related to purchase, sale and principal paydowns that have traded but not settled are reflected as either a due to or due from counterparty on our consolidated statement of financial condition. All related revenue and expenses attributable to these transactions are reflected on the consolidated statement of operations commencing on the trade date unless otherwise specified by the transaction documents.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company values its investments in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value. ASC Topic 820’s definition of fair value focuses on exit price of an orderly transaction in the principal, or most advantageous, market between willing participants with reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts customary of such transactions. ASC Topic 820 also prioritizes the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs when measuring fair value.

ASC Topic 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

•

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.

•

Level 2 — Pricing inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices in less active or inactive markets for identical or similar instruments where multiple price quotes can be obtained, and other observable inputs, such as interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, and default rates.

•

Level 3 — Pricing inputs are unobservable and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation including, in certain instances, the Investment Adviser’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the financial instrument.

Our investments generally include debt investments (both funded and unfunded, “Senior Secured Investments”) and equity investments (both preferred and common, “Equity Investments”). The Company’s portfolio is primarily comprised of relatively illiquid investments that are privately held. Inputs into the determination of fair value of the Company’s portfolio investments require significant management judgment or estimation. This means that the Company’s portfolio valuations are based on unobservable inputs and the Investment Adviser’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability in question. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain and they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates. The determination of fair value of the Company’s investments may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these investments existed.

Fair Value Measurements (continued)

Net assets could be materially affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of the investments were materially higher or lower than the values that are ultimately realized upon the disposal of such investments.

Valuation Techniques

The following is a description of the various valuation techniques the Company utilizes when valuing its investments.

Bid quotations: Certain of the Company’s debt investments may be traded in public markets where quoted market prices are generally not readily available. The fair value of these investments may be determined based on bid quotations from unaffiliated market makers or independent third-party pricing services or the price activity of comparable instruments. The Company will generally supplement the bid quotations for these investments by also performing a comparable yield approach outlined below.

Comparable yield approach: This valuation technique determines the fair value of an investment by assessing the expected market yield of other debt investments with similar credit structures, leverage statistics, interest rates and time to maturity. The Company generally uses this approach for its debt investments that have not been deemed to be credit-impaired and where a market rate of recovery is expected.

Market comparable companies: This valuation technique determines the total enterprise value of a company by assessing the expected multiple that a market participant would apply to that company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), revenue or other collateral that secures the investment. These valuation multiples are typically determined based on reviewing market comparable transactions or other comparable publicly traded companies, if any. The resulting enterprise value will dictate whether or not the Company’s debt investment has adequate enterprise value coverage. In instances where the enterprise value is inadequate, the market comparable companies approach may be used to estimate a recovery value for our credit-impaired debt investments and the fair value of our equity investments. With respect to equity investments, when an external event, such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent sale of equity occurs, the pricing indicated by that external event will be utilized to corroborate our valuation.

Discounted cash flows: This valuation technique determines the fair value of an investment by projecting the expected cash flows based on contractual terms calculating the present value of such cash flows as of the valuation date using a discount rate.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Updates – (continued)

Valuation Process

The Board is responsible for determining, within the meaning of the 1940 Act, in good faith the fair value of the Company’s assets for which market quotations are not readily available, using a documented valuation policy and consistently applied valuation process. The valuation process is a multi-step process conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter as described below:

•

The Company’s valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for credit monitoring.

•

At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment that does not have a readily available quotation, including an external pricing event, is reviewed by an independent valuation firm, subject to certain exceptions described below.

•

Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented, compared to the range of prices provided by an independent valuation firm where applicable, and discussed with our senior management and the Investment Adviser.

•

The Investment Adviser submits these preliminary valuations to the Valuation Committee of the Board.

•

The Board discusses valuations and determines, within the meaning of the 1940 Act, the fair value of each investment in the Company’s portfolio for which market quotations are not readily available in good faith.

As noted above, the Board has retained several independent valuation firms to review the valuation of each portfolio investment that does not have a readily available market quotation at least once during each 12-month period provided, the Board reserves the right to have any investment within the portfolio valued by an independent valuation firm to the extent it determines such a valuation is warranted. To the extent a security is reviewed in a particular quarter, it is reviewed and valued by only one service provider.

However, the Board does not, and does not intend to, have investments independently reviewed that (1) have closed within the two most recent quarters or (2) are de minimis investments that are less than 0.5% of the Company’s total assets (up to an aggregate of 10.0% of the Company’s total assets).

Deferred Debt Issuance Costs

In connection with executing or refinancing its various debt facilities, the Company may incur debt issuance costs or issue debt at a price below par, referred to as an original issue discount. These debt issuance costs and discounts are generally included as a reduction to the carrying amount of the corresponding liability on the consolidated statements of financial condition. However, based on the nature of the debt facilities, costs associated with revolving credit facilities are recorded within the other assets line item on our consolidated statements of financial condition. These costs are generally amortized over the stated maturity of the related liability. In the event that we extinguish our debt facilities before the stated maturity, the Company will deduct any unamortized deferred debt issuance costs from the carrying amount of extinguished debt and recognize a gain or loss on the consolidated statement of operations.

Interest Expense

Interest expense is recorded on an accrual basis and is comprised of cash interest, deferred debt issuance costs, original issue discounts or premiums as well as any loan origination, facility and commitment fees.

2. Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Updates – (continued)

Dividends and Distributions

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

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

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”). ASU 2018-13 modifies and eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2018-13 on January 1, 2020, and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. ASU 2020-04 generally considers contract modifications related to reference rate reform to be an event that does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date nor a reassessment of a previous accounting determination. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time, through December 31, 2022, as reference rate reform activities occur. Once ASU 2020-04 is elected, the guidance must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications. The Company is currently evaluating the adoption of ASU 2020-04 but does not expect the standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

(4)	Includes preferred and common equity.

Unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments include multiples of market comparable companies, relative comparable yields, and recovery rates. Significant decreases (increases) in market comparables could result in lower (higher) fair value measurements. Significant increases (decreases) in comparable yields could result in lower (higher) fair value measurements. Significant increases (decreases) in recovery rates could result in lower (higher) fair value measurements. Generally, a change in the assumption used for relative comparable yields is accompanied by a directionally opposite change in the assumptions used for pricing.

The terms of our debt investments may include provisions that require us to extend additional credit or provide funding to a borrower for any unfunded portion of such debt investments at the request of the borrower. This exposes us to potential future liabilities that are not reflected on the consolidated statements of financial condition. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $1.1 million and $2.1 million of unfunded commitments, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the unfunded commitments was $0.1 and $0.1 million, respectively.

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, prior to August 15, 2018 the Company was allowed to borrow up to amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, was at least 200% after such borrowing excluding the SBA-guaranteed debentures of Garrison SBIC per the Company’s exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Because the Company’s stockholders approved the modified asset coverage requirements in section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, effective August 15, 2018, the asset coverage requirements applicable to the Company under the 1940 Act was reduced to 150%. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 139.3% and 150.4%, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, the Company was not in compliance with its 150% asset coverage requirement and as a result, is unable to make additional borrowings under the Class A-1R-R Notes or the short-term borrowing facility (as defined below) until its asset coverage is at least 150%. As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s total leverage capacity was capped at $1.2 million as a result of the asset coverage ratio limitations.

Collateralized Loan Obligation Financings

On October 18, 2018, the Company completed a secured financing arrangement in the form of a $420.0 million CLO facility. The CLO was executed by GF 2018-2 (the “Issuer”) and Garrison Funding 2018-2 LLC (together with the Issuer, the “Co-Issuers”) who issued $312.0 million of senior secured notes (collectively referred to as the “2018-2 Secured Notes” and individually defined above in the table) and $108.0 million of subordinated notes (the “2018-2 Subordinated Notes” and, together with the 2018-2 Secured Notes, the “2018-2 Notes”) backed by a diversified portfolio of primarily senior secured loans. As part of the CLO transaction, GARS retained all $108.0 million of the 2018-2 Subordinated Notes and $18.3 million of the Class B-R Notes and agreed to serve as collateral manager for the Co-Issuers. GARS is entitled to receive interest from the Class B-R Notes, distributions from the 2018-2 Subordinated Notes and fees for serving as collateral manager in accordance with the CLO’s governing documents and to the extent funds are available for such purposes. However, as a result of retaining all of the 2018-2 Subordinated Notes, the Company consolidates the accounts of the Co-Issuers into its financial statements and all transactions between GARS and the Co-Issuers are eliminated on consolidation. However, as a result of this consolidation, the portion of the 2018-2 Secured Notes that were issued under the CLO and not retained by GARS is treated as the Company’s indebtedness. The net proceeds of the CLO were utilized, along with cash on hand, to refinance notes issued under the Company’s prior collateralized loan obligation facility. The 2018-2 Notes are scheduled to mature on November 20, 2029, however the Co-Issuers may redeem the 2018-2 Notes on any business day after November 20, 2020. The indenture governing the 2018-2 Notes provides that, to the extent cash is available from cash collections, the holders of the 2018-2 Notes are to receive quarterly interest payments on the 20th day or, if not a business day, the next succeeding business day of February, May, August and November of each year until the stated maturity or earlier redemption. On July 18, 2019, $25.0 million outstanding of the aggregate $50.0 million Class A-1R-R Notes available under the CLO converted to Class A-1T-R Notes. The remaining $25.0 million of Class A-1R-R Notes, to the extent drawn, will convert to term notes on or before November 20, 2022.

The Company had $0 and $1.2 million of available leverage capacity in the Class A-1R-R Notes under the CLO as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The fair value of the 2018-2 Notes approximated their carrying value on the consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Collateralized Loan Obligation Financing Covenants

The documents governing the CLO include two coverage tests applicable to the 2018-2 Secured Notes as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The first test compares the amount of interest received on the collateral loans held by GF 2018-2 to the amount of interest payable on the 2018-2 Secured Notes in respect of the amounts drawn and certain expenses. To meet this first test, at any time, the aggregate amount of interest received on the collateral loans must equal, after the payment of certain fees and expenses, at least 135.0% of the aggregate amount of interest payable on the Class A-1R-R Notes, the Class A-1T-R Notes and the Class A-2-R Notes (collectively, the “Class A-R Notes”) and 125.0% of the interest payable on the Class A-R Notes and Class B-R Notes, taken together.

4. Financing – (continued)

Collateralized Loan Obligation Financing Covenants (continued)

The second test compares the aggregate assets that serve as collateral for the 2018-2 Secured Notes, or the Total Capitalization, as defined and calculated in accordance with the indenture, to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2018-2 Secured Notes in respect of the amounts drawn. To meet this second test at any time, the Total Capitalization must equal at least 128.0% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Class A-R Notes, 118.2% of the aggregate principal amount of the Class A-R Notes and Class B-R Notes, taken together.

If the coverage tests are not satisfied with respect to a quarterly payment date, the CLO may be required to apply amounts to the repayment of interest on and principal of the 2018-2 Notes prior to their maturity to the extent necessary to satisfy the applicable coverage tests. As a result, there may be reduced funds available for GF 2018-2 to make additional investments or to make distributions on the 2018-2 Notes held by the Company. Additionally, compliance was measured on each day collateral loans are purchased, originated or sold and in connection with monthly reporting to the note holders.

Furthermore, if under the second coverage test the Total Capitalization equals 125.0% or less of the aggregate outstanding principal amount on the Class A-1R-R and Class A-1T-R Notes, taken together remained so for ten business days, an event of default would be deemed to have occurred. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the trustee for the CLO has asserted that all of the coverage tests were met.

Garrison SBIC Borrowings

On May 29, 2014, Garrison SBIC, which has an investment objective substantially similar to GARS, was formed in accordance with the SBA’s SBIC regulations. Garrison SBIC received a license from the SBA on May 26, 2015. The SBIC license allows Garrison SBIC to obtain SBA-guaranteed debentures in an amount equal to twice its equity capitalization up to $175.0 million of leverage, subject to the issuance of capital commitments by the SBA and other customary procedures. Since receiving its SBIC license, the SBA has issued Garrison SBIC with two commitment letters to provide an aggregate $70.0 million of SBA debentures.

These SBA-guaranteed debentures are issued bi-annually on pooling dates in March and September of each year. The debentures are non-recourse, interest-only debentures with a 10 year stated maturity, but may be prepaid at any time without penalty. To the extent the debentures are prepaid, they are permanently extinguished and the Company can no longer access those debentures. The interest rate of the debentures is fixed at the time of issuance on each respective pooling date and is based on a coupon rate that equates to a spread over the ten year treasury rate based on market rates at the time of issuance. Interest on the debentures is payable on a semi-annual basis. The SBA issues interim financings to SBICs on non-pooling dates that carry a lower interest rate than the debentures and which mature on the next pooling date when replaced by new SBA-guaranteed debentures.

The SBA, as a creditor, will have a superior claim to Garrison SBIC’s assets over GARS’ stockholders if Garrison SBIC were to be liquidated, or if the SBA exercises its remedies under the SBA-guaranteed debentures issued by Garrison SBIC upon an event of default.

As of March 31, 2020, Garrison SBIC had regulatory capital of $30.0 million and total SBIC borrowings outstanding of $27.0 million. The fair value of the SBIC borrowings approximated the carrying value on the consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Short-term Borrowing Facility

On June 3, 2019, the Company entered into a master repurchase agreement (the “short-term borrowing facility”) with Natixis Securities Americas LLC (“Natixis”) to provide short-term borrowings which the Company intends to utilize from time-to-time to manage its working capital needs. The Company’s ability to draw down borrowings under the agreement is subject to 1940 Act leverage limitations, customary covenants and events of defaults and is dependent on the Company pledging eligible assets to Natixis as collateral. No commitment fees were paid in connection with execution of the agreement.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company did not have any short-term borrowings outstanding. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $2.0 million of short-term borrowings outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the annualized effective interest rate on short-term borrowings was 2.74%. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all of the short-term borrowing facility’s covenants.

Deferred Debt Issuance Costs and Other Fees

As of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s debt issuance costs and original issue discounts were generally incurred as a result of the CLO and the Company’s SBIC borrowings. The CLO costs typically represent structuring and facility fees, rating agency fees and other legal costs incurred. The costs associated with SBIC borrowings consist of a 1.00% fee on the total commitments received, a 2.00% leverage fee, a 0.375% underwriting fee and a 0.05% administrative fee on any SBA borrowings that are drawn.

On February 28, 2020, the Company voluntarily prepaid $19.9 million of its outstanding SBIC borrowings, in accordance with the terms of the SBA-guaranteed debentures that govern the SBIC borrowings, prior to their stated maturity date. This resulted in a $0.5 million loss on extinguishment of debt recognized on the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

As of March 31, 2020, $3.5 million of deferred debt issuance costs and discounts remained on our consolidated statement of financial condition. These costs were comprised of $2.8 million related to the CLO and $0.7 million related to the borrowings of Garrison SBIC. As of December 31, 2019, $4.2 million of deferred debt issuance costs and discounts remained on our consolidated statement of financial condition. These costs were comprised of $2.9 million related to the CLO and $1.3 million related to the borrowings of Garrison SBIC. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, interest expense on our consolidated statement of operations included $0.1 million of amortization related to the debt issuance costs and original issue discounts on our liabilities. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, interest expense on our consolidated statement of operations included $0.1 million of amortization related to the debt issuance costs and original issue discounts on our liabilities.

5. Related Party Transactions and Other Agreements

Investment Advisory Agreement

The Investment Adviser is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting research and diligence on prospective investments and equity sponsors, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring our investments and monitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis subject to the supervision of the Board. The Investment Adviser was organized in November 2010 and is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

GARS entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Investment Adviser (as amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), which entitles the Investment Adviser to a management fee and an incentive fee. As of March 31, 2020, the Investment Advisory Agreement had been most recently amended and restated on May 6, 2019.

Management Fee

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, beginning August 14, 2018, the management fee payable to the Investment Adviser is calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Company's average gross assets, excluding cash or cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed funds, at the end of each of the two most recently completed calendar quarters; provided, however, the management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash or cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed funds, that exceeds the product of (i) 200% and (ii) the Company’s average net assets at the end of each of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. For the avoidance of doubt, the 200% is calculated in accordance with the 1940 Act and gives effect to the Company’s exemptive relief with respect to its SBIC debentures.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred aggregate management fee expenses of $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the management fees in the amounts of $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively, were recorded as payable and included in management fee payable on our consolidated statements of financial condition.

Incentive Fee

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser is entitled to an incentive fee consisting of two components and a cap and deferral mechanism. The first component is income-based and payable quarterly in arrears while the second component is capital gains-based and is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date). The components are independent of each other, and certain instances may result in one component being payable even if the other is not.

Income-based incentive fees

The first component, which is income-based and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 20.00% of the amount, if any, that the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds a 1.75% quarterly (7.00% annualized) hurdle rate (the “Hurdle Rate”), subject to a “catch-up” provision, measured at the end of each calendar quarter.

The portion of such income-based incentive fee that is attributable to deferred interest (such as PIK interest) will be paid to the Investment Adviser, together with any other interest accrued on the loan from the date of deferral to the date of payment, only if and to the extent the Company actually receives such interest in cash. Furthermore, any accrual that is attributable to deferred interest will be reversed if and to the extent such interest is reversed in connection with any write-off of the investment giving rise to any deferred interest accrual. Any reversal of such deferred interest amounts would reduce net income for the quarter by the net amount of the reversal, after taking into account the incentive fees associated with the deferred interest amount also being reversed. Such a write-off would result in a reduction and possible elimination of the incentive fees for such quarter. For the avoidance of doubt, no incentive fee will be paid to the Investment Adviser on amounts accrued and not received in cash with respect to deferred interest.

Effective January 1, 2019, the operation of the first component of the incentive fee under the Investment Advisory Agreement for each quarter is as follows:

•

no incentive fee is payable to the Investment Adviser in any calendar quarter in which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the Hurdle Rate of 1.75% (7.00% annualized);

•

50% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the 1.75% Hurdle Rate but is less than 2.9167% in any calendar quarter (11.67% annualized) is payable to the Investment Adviser. This portion of the Company’s income-based incentive fee component is referred to as the “catch-up” provision; and

•

20% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.9167% in any calendar quarter (11.67% annualized) is payable to the Investment Adviser.

The effect of the catch-up provision is that, if the Company earns pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter in excess of 2.9167%, the Investment Adviser would receive 20% of such pre-incentive fee net investment income as if the Hurdle Rate did not apply.

Capital gains-based incentive fees

The second component, which is capital gains-based, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date) and equals 20% of the Company’s cumulative aggregate realized capital gains through the end of such year, computed net of the Company’s aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital loss through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees and subject to the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism described below. The capital gains component of the incentive fee is not subject to any minimum return to stockholders.

In addition, under U.S. GAAP, we are required to accrue capital gains incentive fees, based upon the aggregate cumulative realized capital gains and losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital gain and loss on investments held at the end of each period. If such amount is positive at the end of a period, then the Company will record a capital gains incentive fee equal to 20% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of actual capital gains related incentive fees paid in all prior years. If such amount is negative, no accrual will be recorded for such period. There were no capital gains incentive fees accrued for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

The Investment Advisory Agreement does not permit unrealized capital gains for purposes of calculating the amount payable to the Investment Adviser. Amounts due related to unrealized capital gains, if any, will not be paid to the Investment Adviser until realized under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement (as described above).

Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism

We have structured the calculation of the incentive fees to include a fee limitation (the “Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism”) such that no incentive fee will be paid to our Investment Adviser for any fiscal quarter if, after such payment, the cumulative incentive fees paid to our Investment Adviser for the period that includes such fiscal quarter and the 11 full preceding fiscal quarters (the “Incentive Fee Look-back Period”) would exceed 20.00% of our Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return during the applicable Incentive Fee Look-back Period (the “Incentive Fee Cap”). To the extent that the payment of incentive fees is limited by the Incentive Fee Cap, the payment of such fees is deferred and paid in subsequent quarters up to three years after their date of deferment, subject to applicable limitations included in the Investment Advisory Agreement. However, beginning January 1, 2019, no deferred incentive fees will be paid to the Investment Adviser in an amount in excess of the sum of cumulative realized capital gains, cumulative realized capital losses, cumulative unrealized capital depreciation and cumulative unrealized capital appreciation during the applicable Incentive Fee Look-back Period. The “Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return” is defined as the sum of (1) pre-incentive fee net investment income, (2) cumulative realized capital gains/(losses), and (3) cumulative unrealized capital gains/(losses) for the Incentive Fee Look-back Period.

As of March 31, 2020, we had cumulative net realized and unrealized capital losses in excess of our Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, resulting in negative Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return during the Incentive Fee Look-back Period. Therefore, the Incentive Fee Cap as of March 31, 2020 was zero due to the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism (and subject to the applicable limitations set forth in the Investment Advisory Agreement). As a result, no incentive fees were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism (continued)

As of March 31, 2020, the Investment Adviser had calculated aggregate income-based incentive fees and payments of $6.1 million and $0.8 million since March 31, 2017, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, due to the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism and the irrevocable waiver of previously earned fees, no income-based incentive fees were recorded as payable on the consolidated statement of financial condition. Due to the fact that there is no clawback of amounts previously paid to the Investment Adviser in accordance with the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company has not recorded a receivable for the $0.8 million difference between amounts paid under the Investment Advisory Agreement in prior quarters and the Incentive Fee Cap based on the Company’s Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return as of March 31, 2020.

To the extent unrealized capital losses incurred within the Incentive Fee Look-back Period as of March 31, 2020 are reversed or cease to impact the Incentive Fee Cap, such that our cumulative realized capital gains and cumulative unrealized capital appreciation exceed cumulative realized capital losses and cumulative unrealized capital depreciation prior to March 31, 2023, the Investment Adviser may be able to recoup up to $5.3 million of income-based incentive fees, which are currently deferred under the Incentive Fee Cap, this amount is net of $0.3 million of income-based incentive fees which have been irrevocably waived and cannot be recouped.

The following table provides a breakdown of our incentive fees for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

	Three Months Ended
Incentive Fees ($ in thousands)	March 31, 2020			March 31, 2019

Capital gains-based incentive fees		—			—

Incentive fees subject to cap & deferral mechanism		(5	)		—
Total incentive fees	$	—		$	289

No incentive fees were recorded as payable on the consolidated statement of financial condition as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Administration Agreement

GARS entered into an administration agreement, which was effective as of October 9, 2012 (the “Administration Agreement”), with GARS Administrator. Under the Administration Agreement, the GARS Administrator provides the Company with office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities and such other services as the GARS Administrator, subject to review by the Board, from time to time determines to be necessary or useful to perform its obligations under the Administration Agreement. The GARS Administrator is responsible for the financial and other records that the Company is required to maintain and prepares reports to stockholders, and reports and other materials filed with the SEC. The GARS Administrator provides on the Company’s behalf significant managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance. No managerial assistance was provided to any portfolio companies during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019.

In addition, the GARS Administrator assists the Company in determining and publishing the Company’s net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of the Company’s tax returns, and the printing and dissemination of reports to stockholders of the Company, and generally oversees the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others. The Company reimburses the GARS Administrator for the costs and expenses incurred by the GARS Administrator in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities.

Dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

The Company adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of our dividends and other distributions on behalf of our stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash as provided below. As a result, if the Board declares a cash dividend or other distribution, then our stockholders who have not ‘opted out’ of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, which may be newly issued shares or shares acquired by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”), the transfer and dividend paying agent and registrar to GARS, through open-market purchases, rather than receiving the cash distribution. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, no new shares were issued pursuant to the dividend reinvestment plan.

No action is required on the part of a registered stockholder to have its cash dividend or other distribution reinvested in shares of our common stock. A registered stockholder may elect to receive an entire distribution in cash by notifying AST in writing so that such notice is received by AST no later than the record date for distributions to stockholders.

Those stockholders whose shares are held by a broker or other financial intermediary may receive dividends and other distributions in cash by notifying their broker or other financial intermediary of their election.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $1.1 million and $2.1 million under various undrawn revolvers and other credit facilities as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be named as a defendant or a plaintiff in various lawsuits and other legal proceedings. Such proceedings include actions brought against the Company and others with respect to transactions to which the Company may have been a party. The outcomes of such lawsuits are uncertain and, based on these lawsuits, the values of the investments to which they relate could decrease. Management does not believe that as a result of litigation there would be any material impact on the consolidated financial condition of the Company. The Company has had no outstanding litigation proceedings brought against it since the initial public offering on April 2, 2013.

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into certain contracts that provide a variety of indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these indemnifications is unknown. However, no liabilities have arisen under these indemnifications in the past and, while there can be no assurances in this regard, there is no expectation that any will occur in the future. Therefore, the Company does not consider it necessary to record a liability for any indemnifications under U.S. GAAP.

10. Transactions with Control/Affiliate and Non-Control/Affiliate Investments

As required by the 1940 Act, investments are classified by level of control. “Control Investments” are those investments that we have been deemed to control as defined in the 1940 Act. According to the 1940 Act, control is defined as having an ownership interest of more than 25% of a company’s voting securities. “Affiliate Investments”, according to the 1940 Act, are those investments in affiliate companies that are not Control Investments, but are investments that we have an ownership interest of 5% or more of a company’s voting securities. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. Please refer the our consolidated schedule of investments for the disaggregated list of our investments including the type / classification of the investment, the principal and cost amounts, details of the investment’s interest rate and the maturity date.

The following table shows the Non-Control/Affiliate activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020. There was no Control/Affiliate activity for three months ended March 31, 2020.

Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the

future may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

You should understand that, under Section 27A(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to statements made in connection with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or any periodic reports we file under the Exchange Act.

Overview

We are an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, for tax purposes, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and intend to qualify annually for such treatment. Our shares are currently listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “GARS”.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation by assembling a broad portfolio of loans and debt securities of U.S. based companies. The companies to which we typically extend credit are moderately leveraged and have been rated below investment grade by national rating agencies. For companies that have not been rated, we believe that they would typically receive a rating below investment grade. In addition, our investments typically range in maturity from one to seven years. However, we may make investments in securities with any maturity or duration.

We invest opportunistically in loans and debt securities that we believe have attractive risk adjusted returns. We also, to a lesser extent, may make select minority equity investments (usually in conjunction with a concurrent debt investment) in non-investment grade companies.

Our investment activities are managed by our Investment Adviser. The investment committee of our Investment Adviser is comprised of Joseph Tansey, Brian Chase, Mitch Drucker, Allison Adornato and Daniel Hahn. Our Investment Adviser is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting research and diligence on prospective investments and equity sponsors, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring our investments and monitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. Under an investment advisory agreement with the Investment Advisor, or the Investment Advisory Agreement, we pay a management fee and an incentive fee to our Investment Adviser for its services.

Garrison Capital Administrator LLC, or the Administrator, provides certain administrative services and facilities necessary for us to operate, including office facilities and equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record-keeping services, pursuant to the Administration Agreement. The Administrator oversees our financial reporting and prepares our reports to stockholders and reports required to be filed with the SEC. The Administrator also manages the determination and publication of our net asset value, the preparation and filing of our tax returns and generally monitors the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. The Administrator may retain third parties to assist in providing administrative services to us. To the extent that the Administrator outsources any of its functions, we pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without any profit to the Administrator.

Review of Strategic Alternatives

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. remains engaged as financial advisor and investment banker to our board of directors as our board continues its review of a variety of strategic alternatives that we believe will enhance value for our stockholders. We cannot provide any assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in the identification or consummation of any transaction. Similarly, any strategic decision will involve risks and uncertainties, and we cannot provide any assurance that any strategic alternative, if identified, evaluated and consummated, will provide the anticipated benefits or otherwise enhance stockholder value. The process is ongoing and our board of directors has not set a timetable for completion of the evaluation.

Pending completion of the strategic alternatives review, we may limit our investment activities and may hold any prepayments or repayments of principal on our investments in cash rather than redeploying in new investment opportunities. Holding a significant portion of our assets in cash would negatively affect our total investment income, which may not exceed our expenses during this period.

COVID-19 Developments

The outbreak of COVID-19 resulted in extreme volatility and uncertainty across nearly every financial market, sector and industry in the month of March 2020. The response of federal, state and local authorities to COVID-19 was unprecedented, with widespread “stay at home” orders effectively shutting down much of the economy, an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve and stimulus packages of over $2 trillion.

In connection with the global spread of COVID-19 and the related economic impacts, the Investment Adviser has identified certain portfolio companies as part of its ongoing monitoring of our investment portfolio that the Investment Adviser believes are at increased risk of significant adverse impact and has reached out to the management and sponsors of such companies in order to assess the impact and any proactive steps that could be taken to help mitigate any long-term adverse effects.

Recent Developments

On May 8, 2020, our board of directors, or the Board, declared a distribution in the amount of $2.4 million, or $0.15 a share, which will be paid on June 26, 2020 to stockholders of record as of June 5, 2020.

On April 28, 2020, the Company voluntarily prepaid the remainder of its outstanding SBA-guaranteed debentures in the amount of $27.0 million.

Revenues

In general, we generate revenue in the form of interest earned on the debt investments that we hold and capital gains and distributions, if any, to a lesser extent, on the equity interests or warrants held in portfolio companies. Our debt investments, whether in the form of senior secured, unitranche or mezzanine loans, typically have a term that ranges from three to seven years and may generally bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest is generally payable monthly or quarterly, and in some cases, loans may contain a payment-in-kind, or PIK feature.

We also earn fee income which is generally comprised of amendment, forbearance, prepayment, syndication, structuring, diligence, consulting and possible fees for providing managerial assistance to a portfolio company. Amendment and forbearance fees are generally received in connection with loan amendments or waivers and are recognized upon completion of the amendments or waivers, generally when such fees are receivable. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities into income when we receive such amounts.

In addition, we may receive structuring, diligence fees, consulting and managerial assistance fees for periodically providing services to a portfolio or third party company. These fees are recognized when such services have been completed and the fees are generally receivable. Any such fee income received is recorded and classified as other income and included in investment income on the consolidated statements of operations. As these fees are generally paid and recognized in connection with specific loan event or the performance of a service, there may be significant fluctuations from period to period in the amount and size of such fee and they are typically non-recurring in nature.

In addition, we may receive periodic dividends or distributions from our preferred or equity investments. Such amounts are recorded and classified as other income. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as a component of other income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of (1) the interest expense on our outstanding debt; (2) the management and incentive fees to the Investment Adviser under the Investment Advisory Agreement, if applicable; (3) the allocable portion of overhead to the Administrator under the Administration Agreement; and (4) our other operating costs, as detailed below.

Consolidated Results of Operations

The results of operations described below may not be indicative of the results we report in future periods. Net income can vary substantially from period to period for various reasons, including the recognition of realized gains and losses and unrealized gains and losses. As a result, quarterly comparisons of net investment income may not be meaningful.

Consolidated operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:

	Three Months Ended

Net Investment Income

Net investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 was $2.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively. As described below under “Investment Income” and “Expenses”, net investment income decreased by $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Investment Income

Investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 was $8.0 million and $10.2 million, respectively. Investment income decreased by $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was primarily driven by lower interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to a lower average portfolio size combined with a decrease in the weighted average yield driven by a lower London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR.

Expenses

Total expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 were $5.6 million and $7.0 million, respectively.

The following table summarizes our expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

	Three Months Ended				Three
($ in thousands)	March 31, 2020		March 31, 2019		Months Variance
Interest expense	$	3,004	$	3,727	$	(723	)
Management fee		1,300		1,623		(323	)
Incentive fee		—		289		(289	)
Professional fees		149		398		(249	)
Directors' fees		83		82		1

Other expenses		358		492		(134	)
Total expenses	$	5,638	$	6,982	$	(1,344	)

Interest expense decreased $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to lower debt balances largely from the prepayment of SBA debentures and a lower LIBOR during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Management fee decreased by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to lower average gross assets during the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Incentive fee decreased by $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from the three months ended March 31, 2019, as a result of incurring an incentive fee expense for three months ended March 31, 2019 whereas no such expense was incurred for three months ended March 31, 2020 as a result of being subject to the deferral under the fee limitation pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, or the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism.

Professional fees decreased by $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to lower audit related fees.

Administrator fees increased by $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to expenses related to staffing.

Net Realized Loss on Investments

There were net realized losses on investments of $8.8 million and $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The net realized loss on investments of $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily driven by the restructuring of our investments in Constellis Holdings, LLC, Fusion Connect Inc., and VIP Cinema Holdings, Inc.

The net realized loss on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily comprised of a $6.9 million loss incurred upon the sale of our investment in Profusion Industries, LLC.

Net Change in Unrealized Loss/(Gain) on Investments

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the net change in unrealized loss on investments was $21.5 million as compared to the net change in unrealized loss on investments of $6.3 million for three months ended March 31, 2019.

The net change in unrealized loss on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2020 of $21.5 million was primarily comprised of $5.2 million of negative credit-related adjustments primarily due to Bravo Brio Restaurant Group, Inc. and GIG Rooster Holdings and a net $18.5 million of negative market-related adjustments across various direct lending and syndicated investments, partially offset by the $2.2 million reversal of a previous recorded unrealized losses in connection with the restructurings on our investments in Constellis Borrower LLC, Fusion Connect, Inc. and VIP Cinema Holdings, Inc.

The net change in unrealized gain on investments for the three months ended March 31, 2019 of $6.3 million was primarily comprised of the $6.9 million reversal of a previous recorded unrealized loss as a result of the sale of our investment in Profusion Industries, LLC and $0.4 million of net positive market-related adjustments driven by the rebound in market spreads during the three months ended March 31, 2019. These unrealized gains were offset by a $1.0 million negative credit-related mark down on our investment in Emtec Global Services Holdings, LLC and Confluence Outdoors, LLC.

Net (Decrease)/Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

We had a net asset value per common share outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 of $6.59 and $8.51, respectively.

Based on basic weighted average shares outstanding of 16,049,352, the net decrease in net assets from operations per share for three months ended March 31, 2020 was $1.77. This decrease was driven by net realized and unrealized losses of $1.89 per share, partially offset by net investment income of $0.15 per share incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Based on basic weighted average shares outstanding of 16,049,352, the net increase in net assets from operations per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $0.15. This increase was primarily driven by net investment income of $0.20 per share, partially offset by net realized and unrealized losses of $0.05 per share incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a business development company, we distribute substantially all of our taxable net income to our stockholders. We have generated cash from offerings of our debt and equity securities from time to time and have also utilized any repayments of portfolio investments as an ongoing source of cash. In addition, we generate liquidity from our cash flows from operations.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had cash of $2.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Also, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had restricted cash of $29.6 million and $39.1 million, respectively.

Our primary uses of liquidity include making investments in portfolio companies, distributing our taxable earnings to the holders of our common stock, servicing interest and principal payments on our various debt financing facilities and paying the fees and other operating expenses we incur as a publicly-traded, externally managed business development company. As of March 31, 2020, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents and our ability to sell broadly syndicated investments would be sufficient to fund our anticipated liquidity needs through at least March 31, 2021. In addition, we may, from time to time, amend or refinance our leverage facilities and borrowings, in order to, among other things, modify covenants or the interest rates payable and extend the reinvestment period or maturity date. However, our ability to access capital is subject to market conditions which may result in either capital not being available, or it may be available but only on unfavorable terms. To the extent we are not able to raise additional capital, or otherwise generate sufficient liquidity or are at or near target leverage ratios, we may receive smaller allocations, if any, on new investment opportunities under the Investment Adviser’s allocation policy.

On March 4, 2020, the Board approved a distribution in the amount of $2.4 million, or $0.15 a share, which was paid on March 31, 2020 to stockholders of record as of March 20, 2020

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash and restricted cash decreased by $8.5 million as a result of net cash used in financing activities in the amount of $24.3 million, partially offset by net cash provided by operating activities of $15.9 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, cash provided by operating activities resulted mainly from repayments and sales of investments in the amount of $20.4 million and $4.0 million, respectively, and net realized and unrealized loss on investments in the amount of $30.8 million, offset by purchases of investments in the amount of $1.3 million and a net decrease in the due to/from counterparties and affiliates of $8.1 million. Net cash used in financing activities resulted from net repayments from the borrowings by Garrison SBIC in the amount of $19.9 million, net repayments from the borrowing on our short-term financing facility in the amount of $2.0 million, and cash distributions paid to our stockholders in the amount of $2.4 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, cash and restricted cash decreased by $14.8 million as a result of net cash used in operating activities of $43.6 million, offset by net cash provided by financing activities in the amount of $28.8 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, cash used in operating activities was mainly driven by the purchase of new investments totaling $57.2 million and the payment for investments that were previously purchased but had not yet settled of $19.2 million. These were offset by repayments and sales of investments in the amount of $30.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities primarily came from resulted from the receipt of net borrowing proceeds from the senior secured revolving notes under our $420.0 million collateralized loan obligation that closed

on October 18, 2018, or the 2018-2 CLO, in the amount of $32.5 million, offset by $3.7 million of cash distributions paid to our stockholders.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, of unfunded commitments. These amounts may or may not be funded to the borrowing party now or in the future. The unfunded commitments relate to loans with various maturity dates, but the entire amount was eligible for funding to the borrowers as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 subject to the terms of each loan’s respective credit agreement.

As of March 31, 2020, we were not in compliance with our 150% asset coverage requirements and as a result were unable to make additional borrowings under the revolver portion of our 2018-2 CLO or our master repurchase agreement, or the short-term borrowing facility, with Natixis Securities Americas LLC, or Natixis. As of December 31, 2019, we had an aggregate of $1.2 million available for additional borrowings under the revolver portion of our 2018-2 CLO and the short-term borrowing facility and $5.2 million of available SBIC leverage. As of March 31, 2020, we retained all of the subordinated notes and $18.3 million of the Class B-R Notes under the 2018-2 CLO, which remained available for us to sell, subject to the asset coverage limitations applicable under the 1940 Act. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we pledged $2.5 million of Class B-R Notes to Natixis under the short-term borrowing facility. As such, as of December 31, 2019, $15.8 million of Class B-R Notes remained available for us to sell, subject to the asset coverage limitations applicable under the 1940 Act.

Portfolio Composition and Select Portfolio Information

As of March 31, 2020, we held investments in 100 portfolio companies with a fair value of $366.1 million. As of March 31, 2020, our portfolio had an average investment size of approximately $3.6 million and a weighted average contractual maturity of 48 months.

The following table shows select information of our portfolio as of the end of each fiscal quarter from March 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020:

(1)

Weighted average yield represents the portfolio’s return from the all-in interest rate plus the annualized accretion income from (i) any original issue discount or premium when calculating weighted average yield at amortized cost and (ii) any market discount or premium when calculating weighted average yield at fair value as of the balance sheet date to par at each investments contractual maturity date, excluding the effect of any scheduled principal amortization payments. For those investments valued based on an estimated recovery rate, the weighted average yield calculation is based on redeeming the investment at the current expected recovery rate rather than at par.

(2)	Calculation excludes unfunded revolvers, debt investments placed on non-accrual and equity investments.

(3)	Originated positions include investments where we have sourced and led the execution of the deal.

(4)	Club positions include debt investments with a total tranche size less than $250.0 million where we provide direct lending to a borrower with a small number of other lenders but do not lead the deal.

(5)	Purchased positions include debt investments with a total tranche size greater than $250.0 million that was sourced from a bank loan syndication or the secondary market.

(6)	Includes first-lien debt investments which were valued by performing a liquidation analysis of the underlying assets which serve as collateral for those loans.

*	Table excludes investments with a fair value of zero from all figures except for the total number of portfolio companies and total number of investments. Debt investments in the table above exclude our investment in the consumer loan portfolio and all equity investments.

Inflation

Inflation has not had a significant effect on our results of operations in any of the reporting periods presented in our financial statements. However, from time to time, inflation may impact the operating results of our portfolio companies.

LIBOR Transition

Our investment portfolio is comprised primarily of floating rate loans for which the borrower has an option to choose whether the base rate is referenced to LIBOR or the prime rate. In July 2017, the head of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of the LIBOR 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. If LIBOR ceases to exist, we may need to renegotiate with our portfolio companies the terms of certain credit agreements extending beyond 2021, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. No renegotiation of the terms of the 2018-2 CLO will be required in the event LIBOR ceases to exist because the indenture includes procedures for the selection of a replacement reference rate under such circumstances.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We may become a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $1.1 million and $2.1 million of outstanding commitments to fund such investments, respectively.

Ongoing Monitoring

We view active portfolio monitoring as a vital part of the investment process. Our Investment Adviser monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if it is meeting its respective business plan and to assess the appropriate course of action for each company.

Our Investment Adviser uses several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:

•

assessment of success in adhering to portfolio company’s business plan and compliance with covenants;

•

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

•

comparisons to other portfolio companies in the industry, if any;

•

attendance at and participation in board meetings; and

•

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

Our Investment Adviser assigns an internal rating for each of our portfolio companies. The rating scale is a numeric scale of 1 to 4 based on the credit attributes and prospects of the portfolio company’s business. In general, we use the ratings as follows:

•

a rating of 1 denotes a high quality investment with no loss of principal expected;

•

a rating of 2 denotes a moderate to high quality investment with no loss of principal expected;

•

a rating of 3 denotes a moderate quality investment with market rates of expected loss of principal and potential non-compliance with financial covenants; and

•

a rating of 4 denotes a low quality investment with an expected loss of principal. In the case of risk rating 4 loans, our Investment Adviser will assign a recovery value to the loan.

The following table shows the distribution of our investments on the 1 to 4 investment risk scale at fair value, excluding our interest in equity investments, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

	As of March 31, 2020					As of December 31, 2019
($ in thousands)	Investments at Fair Value		Percentage of Total Debt Investments			Investments at Fair Value		Percentage of Total Debt Investments
Risk Rating 1	$	1,964		0.5	%	$	19,269		4.7	%
Risk Rating 2		206,554		57.8			266,263		64.9
Risk Rating 3		137,451		38.4			101,099		24.6
Risk Rating 4		11,741		3.3			23,911		5.8
	$	357,710		100.0	%	$	410,542		100.0	%

The weighted average risk rating of the portfolio was 2.5 as of both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Total contractual obligations	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	295,750	$	295,750

We have certain contracts under which we have material future commitments. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser provides us with investment advisory and management services. We have agreed to pay for these services (1) a management fee equal to a percentage of the average adjusted value of our gross assets and (2) an incentive fee based on our performance.

We entered into the Administration Agreement on October 9, 2012 with the Administrator. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator furnishes us with office facilities and equipment, provides us clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services and provides us with other administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations.

If any of the contractual obligations discussed above are terminated, our costs under any new agreements that we enter into may increase. In addition, we would likely incur significant time and expense in locating alternative parties to provide the services we expect to receive under our Investment Advisory Agreement and our Administration Agreement. Any new investment advisory agreement would also be subject to approval by our stockholders.

Both the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon no fewer than 60 days’ written notice to the other.

Related Party Transactions

We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:

•

We are party to the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Investment Adviser, under which our Investment Adviser is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting research and diligence on prospective investments and equity sponsors, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring our investments and monitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis.

•

The Administrator provides us with the office facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct day-to-day operations pursuant to our Administration Agreement.

•

We have entered into the License Agreement with Garrison Investment Group pursuant to which Garrison Investment Group has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Garrison.”

•

Under the Staffing Agreement, Garrison Investment Group provides the Investment Adviser with the resources necessary to fulfill these obligations. The Staffing Agreement provides that Garrison Investment Group will make available to the Investment Adviser experienced investment professionals and access to the senior investment personnel of Garrison Investment Group for purposes of evaluating, negotiating, structuring, closing and monitoring our investments. The Staffing Agreement also includes a commitment that the members of the Investment Advisers’ investment committee serve in such capacity. The Staffing Agreement remains in effect until terminated and may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. Services under the Staffing Agreement are provided to the Investment Adviser on a direct cost reimbursement basis, and such fees are not our obligation.

•

In connection with the 2018-2 CLO, we retained the Investment Adviser to furnish collateral management services to us pursuant to a sub-collateral management agreement. The Investment Adviser does not receive a fee for providing such services.

•

We have adopted a joint code of ethics that governs the conduct of our and our Investment Adviser’s officers, directors and employees. Our officers and directors also remain subject to the duties imposed by both the 1940 Act and the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. We have identified the following as critical accounting policies.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GARS and its subsidiaries. The accounts of the subsidiaries are prepared using consistent accounting policies and as of the same reporting period as GARS. Under ASC Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, or ASC Topic 946, the Company is generally precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company. Accordingly, the Company consolidates any investment company when it owns 100% of its equity units or 100% of the economic equity interest. ASC Topic 946 also provides for the consolidation of a controlled operating company that provides substantially all of its services to the investment company or its consolidated subsidiaries.

As a result, we have consolidated the results of Garrison Funding 2018-2 Ltd., Garrison Funding 2018-2 LLC, Garrison SBIC, Garrison Capital PL Holdings LLC, GIG Rooster Holdings I LLC and a series of limited liability companies that GARS created primarily to provide specific tax treatment for the minority equity and other investments held in these limited liability companies.

Revenue Recognition

In general, we generate revenue that primarily consists of interest income, fee income, dividend income and gains and losses on our investments.

Interest income: Interest income is comprised of cash interest, PIK interest, original issue discounts or premiums as well as any loan origination, facility and commitment fees. Cash and PIK interest income is accrued based on the outstanding principal amount and interest terms outlined in the respective contractual agreement that governs that investment. The Company records interest income if it expects that it ultimately will be able to collect such income. Loan origination fees and any original issue or purchase discounts or premiums received by the Company are initially capitalized, deferred and reduce or increase the cost basis of the investment and subsequently accreted into interest income over the stated term of the loan.

when such fees are receivable. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities into income when we receive such amounts.

Investment gains and losses: Realized gains and losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to any previously recognized unrealized changes in the investments’ fair value. Current period changes in the fair value of our investments, which are measured at fair value, are recognized and recorded as a component of the net change in unrealized gain / (loss) on investments on the consolidated statement of operations. Both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded using the specific identification method.

Investments, at Fair Value

The Company records its investment transactions on a trade date basis, which is the date when management has determined that all material legal terms have been contractually defined for the transactions. These transactions generally settle on a subsequent date which may depend on the type of transaction. Any amounts related to purchase, sale and principal paydowns that have traded but not settled are reflected as either a due to or due from counterparty on our consolidated statement of financial condition. All related revenue and expenses attributable to these transactions are reflected on the consolidated statements of operations commencing on the trade date unless otherwise specified by the transaction documents.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company values its investments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC Topic 820. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value. ASC Topic 820’s definition of fair value focuses on an exit price of an orderly transaction in the principal, or most advantageous, market between willing participants with reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts customary of such transactions. ASC Topic 820 also prioritizes the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs when measuring fair value.

ASC Topic 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

•

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.

•

Level 2 — Pricing inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices in less active or inactive markets for identical or similar investments where multiple price quotes can be obtained, and other observable inputs, such as interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, and default rates.

•

Level 3 — Pricing inputs are unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the financial instrument. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation including, in certain instances, the Investment Adviser’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the financial instrument.

Our investments include debt investments (both funded and unfunded) and preferred and minority common equity investments of diversified companies. Our portfolio is primarily comprised of relatively illiquid investments that are privately held. Inputs into the determination of fair value of our portfolio investments require significant management judgment or estimation. This means that our portfolio valuations are based on unobservable inputs and the Investment Adviser’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability in question. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain and they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates. The determination of fair value of the Company’s investments may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these investments existed.

Valuation Techniques

The following is a description of the various valuation techniques the Company utilizes when valuing its investments.

Bid quotations: Certain of the Company’s debt investments may from time to time be traded in public markets where quoted market prices are generally not readily available. The fair value of these investments may be determined based on bid quotations from unaffiliated market makers or independent third-party pricing services or the price activity of comparable instruments. The Company will generally supplement the bid quotations for these investments by also performing a comparable yield approach outlined below.

Market comparable companies: This valuation technique determines the total enterprise value of a company by assessing the expected multiple that a market participant would apply to that company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, revenue or other collateral that secures the investment. These valuation multiples are typically determined based on reviewing market comparable transactions or other comparable publicly traded companies, if any. With respect to debt investments, the resulting enterprise value will dictate whether or not the Company’s debt investment has adequate enterprise value coverage. In instances where the enterprise value is inadequate, the market comparable companies approach may be used to estimate a recovery value for our credit-impaired debt investments. With respect to equity investments, the market comparable companies approach may be used to estimate the fair value of the Company’s equity investments, and, when an external event, such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent sale of equity occurs, the pricing indicated by that external event will be utilized to corroborate our valuation.

Valuation Process

The Board is responsible for determining, within the meaning of the 1940 Act, in good faith the fair value of the Company’s assets for which market quotations are not readily available using a documented valuation policy and consistently applied valuation process. The valuation process is a multi-step process conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter as described below:

•

The Company’s valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by investment professionals of the Investment Adviser responsible for credit monitoring.

•

At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment that does not have a readily available quotation is reviewed by an independent valuation firm, subject to the certain exceptions as more fully described below.

•

The Investment Adviser submits these preliminary valuations to the Valuation Committee of the Board.

•

As noted above, our board of directors has retained several independent valuation firms to review the valuation of each portfolio investment that does not have a readily available market quotation at least once during each 12-month period provided, the board of directors reserves the right to have any investment within the portfolio valued by an independent valuation firm to the extent it determines such a valuation was warranted. To the extent a security is reviewed in a particular quarter, it is reviewed and valued by only one service provider. However, our board of directors does not, and does not intend to, have investments independently reviewed that (1) have closed within the two most recent quarters or (2) are de minimis investments of less than 0.5% of our total assets (up to an aggregate of 10.0% of our total assets).

Interest Expense

Interest expense is recorded on an accrual basis and is adjusted for amortization of deferred debt issuance costs and any original issue discount.

Deferred Debt Issuance Costs

Dividends and Distributions

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. During the period covered by our financial statements, the majority of the loans in our portfolio had floating interest rates, and we expect that our loans in the future will also have floating interest rates. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, 99.6% and 99.7%, respectively, of the outstanding principal amount of our debt investments bore interest at floating rates. These loans usually have floating interest rates based on LIBOR and typically have interest rate re-set provisions that adjust applicable LIBOR under such loans to current market rates on a regular basis. In addition, the 2018-2 CLO has a floating interest rate provision based on a cost of funds that approximates LIBOR and we expect that any other credit facilities into which we enter in the future may have floating interest rate provisions.

Assuming that the interim and unaudited consolidated statement of financial condition as of March 31, 2020 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates.

	(Decrease)/increase			(Decrease)/increase			Net (decrease)/increase
Change in interest rates ($ in thousands)	in interest income			in interest expense			in investment income
Down 100 basis points	$	(2,037	)	$	(2,688	)	$	651
Down 50 basis points		(1,274	)		(1,344	)		70
Down 25 basis points		(691	)		(672	)		(19	)
Up 25 basis points		941			672			269
Up 50 basis points		1,883			1,344			539
Up 100 basis points		3,847			2,688			1,159

Although management believes that this analysis is indicative of our existing sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for changes in the credit markets, the size, credit quality or composition of the assets in our portfolio and other business developments, including indebtedness under the 2018-2 CLO, Garrison SBIC borrowings or additional borrowings, that could affect our net increase in net assets resulting from operations or net income. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that actual results would not differ materially from the statement above.

We may in the future hedge against currency and interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, forward contracts, currency options and interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors, including with respect to the obligations of the 2018-2 CLO, to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in currency exchange and interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates. We and our Investment Adviser have not hedged any of the obligations of the 2018-2 CLO.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

As of 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) under the Exchange Act). Based on our evaluation, our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of material information about us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, are based upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and 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. There has not been any change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Part II — Other Information

Item 1: Legal Proceedings

We, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our wholly-owned subsidiaries are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors set forth below as well as in “Part 1. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

As of March 31, 2020, our asset coverage ratio was below 150%.

Under the 1940 Act, we are permitted to incur leverage such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% after giving effect to the incurrence of such leverage. As of March 31, 2020, our asset coverage was 139.3%. As a result of our current asset coverage ratio, total assets and levels of term debt, we cannot incur additional leverage until our asset coverage ratio exceeds 150%. As a result of our current asset coverage, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments in order to fund our ongoing liquidity requirements (including distributions to stockholders) or repay a portion of our indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we cannot assure you that we would be able to sell any such assets on a timely basis, at prices equal to fair market value or at all. Further, we expect our investment activity will be limited while our asset coverage is at or below 150%, which may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Global economic, political and market conditions caused by the current COVID-19 pandemic have (and in the future could further) adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and those of our portfolio companies.

A novel strain of coronavirus initially appeared in China in late 2019. The rapid spread of the virus and the disease it causes (COVID-19) around the globe has caused many governments, including in the United States, to order the temporary closure of “non-essential” business, to issue “stay at home” orders and to restrict travel. COVID-19 and the governmental responses have significantly impacted consumer demand, supply chains and operations in many industries, which has contributed to significant market disruption and volatility. Disruptions in the capital markets have increased the spread between the yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets, significant write-offs in the financial sector and re-pricing of credit risk in the broadly syndicated market. These and any other unfavorable economic conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us, which in turn could negatively impact our operating results. In addition, our success depends in substantial part on the management, skill and acumen of the Investment Adviser, whose operations may be adversely impacted by government restrictions or any health issues of its investment professionals or service providers.

The COVID-19 pandemic, the related government restrictions and the resulting market conditions have resulted in certain of our portfolio companies ceasing or significantly reducing operations and have negatively affected the supply chains and/or consumer demand of certain of our portfolio companies. In addition, middle market companies, like many of our portfolio companies, may experience difficulty obtaining additional financing or refinancing existing debt in current economic conditions. As a result of the aforementioned factors and others, certain of our portfolio companies may have difficulty meeting their debt service obligations, which may lead to defaults in our

portfolio and/or increase requests for amendments or waivers under the documents governing our loans to such companies. Adverse economic conditions may decrease the value of the collateral securing some of our loans and the value of our equity investments. The performance of certain of our portfolio companies has been, and in the future may be, negatively impacted by these economic or other conditions, which has resulted in realized and unrealized losses related to our investment and may result in our receipt of reduced interest income from our portfolio companies, and, in turn, adversely impact our results of operations and the amount available for distribution to our stockholders.

As the potential impact of the coronavirus remains difficult to predict, the extent to which the coronavirus could negatively affect our and our portfolio companies’ operating results or the duration of any potential business or supply-chain disruption is uncertain. Any potential impact to our results of operations will depend to a large extent on future developments regarding the duration and severity of the coronavirus and the actions taken by governments and their citizens to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control.
