Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results;

Declares a Third Quarter 2020 Regular Dividend of $0.41 per Share

LOS ANGELES, August 10, 2020 — Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. (“Crescent BDC” or “Company”) (NASDAQ: CCAP) today reported net investment income of $13.0 million, or $0.46 per share, and a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $56.4 million, or $2.00 per share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. Reported net asset value per share was $18.12 at June 30, 2020 as compared to $16.52 at March 31, 2020.

The increase in net asset value for the second quarter was primarily driven by unrealized gains from the impact of credit spreads tightening relative to the end of the first quarter.

The Company announced that its Board of Directors has declared a third quarter 2020 dividend of $0.41 per share, which will be paid on or around October 15, 2020 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on September 30, 2020.

For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company invested $26.4 million into one new portfolio company, one refinancing and several follow-on revolver and delayed draw fundings. For this period, the Company had $60.4 million in aggregate exits, sales and repayments.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, excluding assets acquired in the Alcentra Capital Corp. (“Alcentra”) acquisition, the Company invested $117.4 million across seven new portfolio companies and three existing portfolio companies. For this period, the Company had $73.8 million in aggregate exits, sales and repayments.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

Investment income increased to $19.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $18.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase was due in part to three months of investment income from Alcentra portfolio investments that the Company acquired on January 31, 2020.

Total net expenses, including income and excise taxes, decreased to $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest and other debt financing costs as the weighted average interest rate on the Company’s weighted average outstanding debt decreased from 4.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 to 3.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $11.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and $166.1 million of undrawn capacity on its credit facilities, subject to borrowing base and other limitations. The weighted average interest rate on the Company’s debt outstanding was 2.7% as of June 30, 2020.

The Company’s debt to equity ratio was 0.78x as of June 30, 2020.

On July 30, 2020, the Company announced that it agreed to issue $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.95% senior unsecured notes due July 30, 2023. Pro forma for this transaction, the Company had over $200 million of available liquidity as of June 30, 2020.
