The Company is providing the information as of this date (unless otherwise specified) and assumes no obligations to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Additionally, our actual results and financial condition may differ materially as a result of the continued impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, including without limitation: the length and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States as well as worldwide and the magnitude of the economic impact of that outbreak; the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies, including our and their ability to achieve our respective objectives; and the effect of the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on our ability to continue to effectively manage our business (including on our ability to source and close new investment opportunities) and on the availability of equity and debt capital and our use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments.
