(1) Unless otherwise indicated, all investments are considered Level 3 investments.
(2) Unless otherwise indicated, all investments represent co-investments made with the Company's affiliates in accordance with the terms of the exemptive relief that the Company received from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Refer to Note 6 for further information.
(3) The amortized cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on debt investments using the effective interest method.
(4) Unless otherwise indicated, the interest rate on the principal balance outstanding for all floating rate loans is indexed to LIBOR and/or an alternate base rate (e.g. prime rate), which typically resets semiannually, quarterly, or monthly at the borrower's option. The applicable base rate may be subject to a floor. The borrower may also elect to have multiple interest reset periods for each loan.  For each of these loans, we have provided the applicable margin over LIBOR based on each respective credit agreement.
(5) The interest rate on these loans is subject to 1 month LIBOR, which as of September 30, 2020 was 0.15%.
(6) The interest rate on these loans is subject to 2 month LIBOR, which as of September 30, 2020 was 0.19%.
(7) The interest rate on these loans is subject to 3 month LIBOR, which as of September 30, 2020 was 0.23%.
(8) The interest rate on these loans is subject to 6 month LIBOR, which as of September 30, 2020 was 0.26%.
(9) The interest rate on these loans is subject to 12 month LIBOR, which as of September 30, 2020 was 0.36%.
(10) The interest rate on these loans is subject to the Prime Rate, which as of September 30, 2020 was 3.25%.
(11) Represents revolvers and delayed draw term loans where the entire balance is unfunded as of September 30, 2020. The negative fair value is a result of the commitment being valued below par.  Refer to Note 7 for further information.
(12) Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $2,834 on which the borrower pays 5.75%.
(13) Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $20,286 on which the borrower pays 5.75%.
(14) Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $5,159 on which the borrower pays 7.00%.
(15) Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $10,663 on which the borrower pays 6.00%.
(16) Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $141,677 on which the borrower pays 0.00%.
(17) As a practical expedient, the Company uses net asset value ("NAV") to determine the fair value of this investment. Consistent with FASB guidance under ASC 820, these investments are excluded from the hierarchical levels. This represents an investment in an affiliated fund.

The amortized cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on debt investments using the effective interest method.
(4)
The interest rate on the principal balance outstanding for all floating rate loans is indexed to LIBOR and/or an alternate base rate (e.g. prime rate), which typically resets semiannually, quarterly, or monthly at the borrower’s option. The applicable base rate may be subject to a floor. The borrower may also elect to have multiple interest reset periods for each loan. For each of these loans, we have provided the applicable margin over LIBOR based on each respective credit agreement.
(5)
The interest rate on these loans is subject to 1 month LIBOR, which as of December 31, 2019 was 1.76%.
(6)
The interest rate on these loans is subject to 3 month LIBOR, which as of December 31, 2019 was 1.91%.

The interest rate on these loans is subject to the Prime Rate, which as of December 31, 2019 was 4.75%.
(8)
Represents revolvers and delayed draw term loans where the entire balance is unfunded as of December 31, 2019. The negative cost is a result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value is a result of the capitalized discount on the loan. Refer to Note 7 for further information.
(9)
Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $6,468 on which the borrower pays 5.75%.
(10)
Principal balance includes reserve for letter of credit of $5,159 on which the borrower pays 6.25%.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


Note 1.  Organization
AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as 1889 BDC, Inc., is a Delaware corporation which was formed on February 4, 2016.  The Company has elected to be regulated as a Business Development Company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).  In addition, for tax purposes, the Company 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”).  The Company seeks to provide risk-adjusted returns and current income to investors by investing primarily in senior secured debt of middle market companies.  The Company may also invest opportunistically in other parts of the capital structure, including senior secured stretch and unitranche facilities, second lien loans, mezzanine and mezzanine-related loans, and equity investments, as well as select other subordinated instruments either directly or through acquisitions in the secondary market.
AG Twin Brook Manager, LLC (the “Advisor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Angelo, Gordon & Co., L.P. (“Angelo Gordon”), serves as the investment adviser of the Company.  The Advisor is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
Twin Brook Capital Partners, LLC (“TBCP”) is an affiliate of Angelo Gordon and provides collateral agent, administrative and other services with respect to certain investments held by the Company.  Twin Brook Capital Servicer, LLC (“TBCS”) is an affiliate of Angelo Gordon and provides loan servicing with respect to certain investments held by the Company.
The Company conducts private offerings (each, a “Private Offering”), where investors make a capital commitment to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with the Company. Investors will be required to make capital contributions to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock each time the Company delivers a drawdown notice. The initial closing of the Private Offering occurred on July 19, 2019 (the “Initial Closing”), and additional closings of the Private Offering are expected to occur from time to time as determined by the Company.  Upon the earlier to occur of (i) a Qualified IPO (as defined below), and (ii) the five year anniversary of the Initial Closing, investors will be released from any further obligation to purchase additional shares, subject to certain exceptions. A “Qualified IPO” is an initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company’s common stock that results in an unaffiliated public float of at least the lower of (A) $60 million and (B) 17.5% of the aggregate capital commitments received prior to the date of such initial public offering.

The Company commenced its loan origination and investment activities with the initial drawdown from investors in the Private Offering on July 29, 2019 (the commencement of operations).  The Company made its first portfolio company investment in August 2019.
Note 2.  Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).  The Company is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies.  These consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments that in the opinion of management are necessary for the fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented herein.  The Company commenced operations on July 29, 2019 and its fiscal year ends on December 31.

AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued

The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 6 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim period presented, have been included. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020.

Principles of Consolidation
The Company conducts certain of its activities through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Twin Brook Capital Funding XVIII, LLC and Twin Brook Equity XVIII Corp.  The Company consolidates subsidiaries that are controlled by the Company.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
Cash is comprised of cash on deposit with major financial institutions.  The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions to minimize credit risk exposure.
Investment Related Transactions, Revenue Recognition and Expenses
Investment transactions and the related revenue and expenses are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined using the specific identification method.  All costs associated with consummated investments are included in the cost of such investments.  Broken deal expenses incurred in connection with investment transactions which are not successfully consummated are expensed as a component of “Other” expense on the consolidated statement of operations.
Interest income and interest expense are recognized on an accrual basis.  Interest income on debt instruments is accrued and recognized for those issuers who are currently paying in full or expected to pay in full.  For those issuers who are in default or expected to default, interest is not accrued and is only recognized when received.  Interest income and expense include discounts accreted and premiums amortized on certain debt instruments as determined in good faith by the Company and calculated using the effective interest method.  Loan origination fees, original issue discounts and market discounts or premiums are capitalized as part of the underlying cost of the investments and accreted or amortized over the life of the investment as interest income.
Paydown gains and losses on investments in debt instruments are reported in “Interest” income on the consolidated statement of operations.  Interest received in-kind, computed at the contractual rate specified in each investment agreement, is added to the principal balance of the investment and reported as “Interest” income on the consolidated statement of operations.  The Company records dividend income from private securities pursuant to the terms of the respective investments.

AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued


The Company may earn various fees during the life of the loans.  Such fees include, but are not limited to, syndication, commitment, administration, prepayment and amendment fees, some of which are paid to the Company on an ongoing basis.  These fees and any other income are recognized as earned as a component of "Other" income on the consolidated statement of operations.

Investments at Fair Value
The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements.  ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  In accordance with ASC 820, the Company discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements).  ASC 820 establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1
Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date;

Level 2
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;

Level 3
Inputs that are unobservable.
Inputs are used in applying the various valuation techniques and broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants use to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk.  Inputs may include price information, volatility statistics, interest rates, specific and broad credit data, liquidity statistics, and other factors.  A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement; however, the determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Company.  The Company considers observable data to be market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.  The categorization of a financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does not necessarily correspond to the Company’s perceived risk of that instrument.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from product to product and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including for example, the type of product, whether the product is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the transaction.  To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.  Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), and the Advisor in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.  In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in investment funds include vehicles structured for the purpose of investing in privately held common and preferred equity interests. Fair values are generally determined utilizing the NAV supplied by, or on behalf of, management of each investment fund, which is net of management and incentive fees or allocations charged by the investment fund, if applicable, and is in accordance with the “practical expedient”, as defined by FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-12, Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share. NAVs received by, or on behalf of, management of

12


AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued


each investment fund are based on the fair value of the investment funds’ underlying investments in accordance with policies established by management of each investment fund, as described in each of their financial statements and offering memorandum. Withdrawals and distributions from investments in investment funds are at the discretion of the Advisor and may depend on the liquidation of underlying assets. Investments which are valued using NAV as a practical expedient are excluded from the above hierarchy.
The Board oversees and supervises a multi-step valuation process, which includes, among other procedures, the following:
The valuation process begins with each investment being initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment in conjunction with the portfolio management team.
The Advisor’s management reviews the preliminary valuations with the investment professionals.  Agreed upon valuation recommendations are presented to the Board.

The Board reviews the recommended valuations and determines the fair value of each investment; valuations that are not based on readily available market quotations are valued in good faith, based on, among other things, the input of the Advisor and, where applicable, other third parties.

When determining the fair value of Level 3 investments, the Company may take into account the following factors, where relevant: recent transactions, the enterprise value of the underlying company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the underlying company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the underlying company does business, financial covenants, the seniority of the financial instrument in the capital structure of the company, comparisons to publicly traded securities, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that may affect the price at which similar investments may be made and other relevant factors. The primary method for determining enterprise value uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio company’s net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). The enterprise value analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments and to determine if debt investments are credit impaired. If debt investments are credit impaired, the Company will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value. For debt investments that are not determined to be credit impaired, the Company uses a market interest rate yield analysis to determine fair value.
The Company’s investments trade infrequently and when they are traded, the price may be unobservable, and as a result, multiple external pricing sources may not be available.  In such instances, the Company may use an internal pricing model as either a corroborating or sole data point in determining the price.  Pricing models take into account the contractual terms of the financial instrument, as well as relevant inputs, including where applicable, equity prices, interest rate yield curves, credit curves, correlation, and the creditworthiness of the counterparty.  The Company generally engages third party firm(s) to assist in validating certain financial instruments where multiple external prices cannot be obtained.  The third party firm(s) either independently determine prices or assess the reasonableness of the Company’s prices.  The analyses provided by such third party firm(s) are reviewed and considered by the Company.  As part of the risk management process, the Company reviews and analyzes the prices obtained from external pricing sources to evaluate their reliability and accuracy, which includes identifying and excluding vendor prices and broker quotations that the Company believes does not reflect fair value.  In addition, the Advisor’s valuation committee meets regularly and engages in ongoing reviews of the valuation processes and procedures including reviews of methodology, ongoing accuracy, source quality and independence. Such reviews include, but are not limited to, comparison of current vendor prices and broker quotations against ongoing daily trading activity, vendor due diligence, and back testing.

AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued
Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure.  Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the assumptions are set to reflect those that the Company believes market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Organizational Costs
Organizational costs to establish the Company are charged to expense as incurred.  These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs of organizing the Company.
Offering Costs
Offering costs in connection with the offering of common shares of the Company are capitalized as a deferred charge and amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over 12 months from the commencement of operations.  These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs incurred with the Company’s share offerings, the preparation of the Company’s registration statement, and registration fees.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs consist of financing costs incurred in connection with obtaining the Company’s subscription facility.  Such financing costs are capitalized and amortized over the life of the facility utilizing the straight-line method.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company paid approximately $120,000 and amortized approximately $40,000 and $94,000 of financing costs, respectively, which have been included in “Interest” expense on the consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company paid approximately $178,000 of financing costs, of which approximately $8,000 have been amortized and included in “Interest” expense on the consolidated statement of operations.
Deferred Income
Deferred income consists of annual administrative agent fees received in connection with the servicing of certain loan investments.  Such fees are deferred when received and recognized as earned over the applicable period.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company received approximately $46,000 and $70,000 of agent fees, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately $23,000 and $61,000 of agent fees, respectively, have been recognized as earned and included in “Other” income on the consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company received approximately $30,000 of agent fees, of which approximately $3,000 have been amortized and included in “Other” income on the consolidated statement of operations.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act.  The Company also has elected to be treated as a Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  As a RIC, the Company generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes timely to its shareholders as dividends.  To the extent the Company continues to qualify as a RIC, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Company’s investors and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
To continue to qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to continue to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Company must distribute to its shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its “investment

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued


company taxable income” for that year, which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses. The Company will generally be subject to a 4% non-deductible U.S. federal excise tax on certain undistributed income or gains in respect of any calendar year, unless it distributes annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its capital gain net income (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending on October 31 in such calendar year and (iii) any net ordinary income and capital gain net income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following taxable year and pay the applicable U.S. federal excise tax.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company did not accrue any U.S. federal excise tax.

The Company conducts certain of its activities through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Twin Brook Equity XVIII Corp., a Delaware C corporation.  Twin Brook Equity XVIII Corp. is treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company did not accrue any U.S. federal tax expense. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company accrued approximately $14,000 of U.S. federal tax expense related to fee income received, which is included in “Other” expense on the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority.  Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.  All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense.  Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.  There were no tax penalties, and no interest associated with income taxes was incurred through September 30, 2020.
Loan Syndications and Participations
The Company may originate certain loans and then syndicate all or a portion of those loans to a third party. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company earned approximately $44,000 and $137,000, respectively, of syndication and other origination fee income, which is included in “Other” income on the consolidated statement of operations. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company earned approximately $80,000 of syndication and other origination fee income, which is included in “Other” income on the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company follows the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 860 Transfers and Servicing when accounting for loan participations and other partial loan sales. Such guidance requires a participation or other partial loan sale to meet the definition of a “participating interest,” as defined in the guidance, in order for sale treatment to be allowed. Participations or other partial loan sales that do not meet the definition of a participating interest remain on the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities and the proceeds are recorded as a secured borrowing until the definition is met. Secured borrowings are carried at fair value to correspond with the related investments, which are carried at fair value. There were no participations that were accounted for as secured borrowings during the period.
Distributions
Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the record date. The amount to be distributed, if any, is determined by the Board each quarter. The Company intends to distribute net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually out of the

15

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued
assets legally available for such distributions. However, the Company may decide in the future to retain such capital gains for investment, incur a corporate-level tax on such capital gains, and elect to treat such capital gains as deemed distributions to stockholders.
Note 3.  Investments
Under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify non-controlled investments where it owns 5% or more of a portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and/or had the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company as investments in “affiliated” companies. In addition, under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to separately identify investments where it owns more than 25% of a portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and/or had the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company as investments in “controlled” companies. Under the 1940 Act, "non-affiliated investments" are defined as investments that are neither controlled investments nor affiliated investments. Detailed information with respect to the Company’s non-controlled, non-affiliated; non-controlled, affiliated; and controlled affiliated investments is contained in the consolidated financial statements, including the consolidated schedule of investments. The information in the tables below is presented on an aggregate portfolio basis, without regard to whether they are non-controlled, non-affiliated; non-controlled, affiliated; or controlled affiliated investments.

Debt Not Carried at Fair Value
The fair value of the Company’s subscription facility, which would have been categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, approximates its carrying value.
Significant Unobservable Inputs
In accordance with ASC 820, the following tables provide quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs of the Company’s Level 3 investments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.  The table is not intended to be all-inclusive but instead capture the significant unobservable inputs relevant to the Company’s determination of fair value.

The Company’s other Level 3 investments have been valued primarily using recent transactions.  The significant unobservable input used in the discounted cash flow is the yield.  The yield is used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment.  The Company considers the portfolio company performance since close, the leverage used by the portfolio company relative to its total enterprise value and other risks associated with an investment in determining the yield.  The significant unobservable input used in the market comparable is the LTM EBITDA multiple.
Note 5.  Subscription Facility
In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Company can borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowings, subject to certain limitations.  As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s asset coverage ratio was 6,818.9%.  As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s asset coverage was 756.9%.

On August 14, 2019, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (the “Subscription Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”).  The Subscription Facility enables the Company to request loans from the Lender up to a maximum commitment of $50 million.  The borrowings under the Subscription Facility are collateralized by the eligible unfunded capital commitments of investors in the Company.  The total amount available under the Subscription Facility may be reduced as a result of decreases in the unfunded capital commitments of investors in the Company as well as other provisions of the Subscription Facility.
Borrowings under the Subscription Facility bear interest at either (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin of 1.50%, if the borrowing is a LIBOR Rate Loan or (ii) the Prime Rate plus the applicable margin of 0.50%, if the borrowing is a Reference Rate Loan.  As of September 30, 2020, the outstanding borrowings under the Subscription Facility bore interest at an all-in rate of 1.66%.  As of December 31, 2019, the outstanding borrowings under the Subscription Facility bore interest at all-in rates ranging from  3.19% to 3.31%.  In addition, the Company pays an unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the

19



AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued

daily unused commitments of the Lender.  The maturity date of the Subscription Facility is August 12, 2022.
The Subscription Facility contains representations, warranties, covenants, including financial covenants, events of default and indemnities that are customary for agreements of this type.  As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company is in compliance in all material respects with such covenants.

Note 6.  Agreements and Related Party Transactions
Administration Agreement
On June 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Administration Agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with Angelo Gordon (the “Administrator”). Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator performs, or oversees the performance of, required administrative services, which include providing office space, equipment and office services, maintaining financial records, preparing reports to shareholders and reports filed with the SEC, and managing the payment of expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered by others.
The Company reimburses the Administrator for services performed for it pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement, the


20


AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued
 

Administrator may delegate its obligations under the Administration Agreement to an affiliate or to a third party and the Company will reimburse the Administrator for any services performed for it by such affiliate or third party.

Unless earlier terminated as described below, the Administration Agreement will remain in effect until June 26, 2021 and from year to year thereafter if approved annually by the vote of the Board of Directors of the Company and the vote of a majority of the Company’s Independent Directors.  The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon not less than 60 days’ written notice to the other.

No person who is an officer, director, or employee of the Administrator or its affiliates and who serves as a director of the Company receives any compensation from the Company for his or her services as a director.  However, the Company reimburses the Administrator (or its affiliates) for an allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Administrator or its affiliates to the Company’s officers who provide operational and administrative services, as well as their respective staffs and other professionals who provide services to the Company, who assist with the preparation, coordination and administration of the foregoing or provide other “back office” or “middle office” financial or operational services to the Company (based on the percentage of time those individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business and affairs of the Company).  Directors who are not affiliated with the Administrator receive compensation for their services and reimbursement of expenses incurred to attend meetings.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Administrator had the option to charge approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for certain costs and expenses allocable to the Company under the terms of the Administration Agreement, all of which were waived and borne by the Administrator for those periods. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Administrator had the option to charge approximately $0.1 million for certain costs and expenses allocable to the Company under the terms of the Administration Agreement, all of which were waived and borne by the Administrator for those periods.

Investment Management Agreement

On June 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Investment Management Agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with the Advisor.  Under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, the Advisor is responsible for originating prospective investments, conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring the Company’s investments and monitoring the Company’s investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis.

Unless earlier terminated as described below, the Investment Management Agreement will remain in effect until June 26, 2021 and from year to year thereafter if approved annually by (a) the vote of the Board of Directors of the Company or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company and (b) the vote of a majority of the Company’s Independent Directors.  The Investment Management Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of assignment.  The Investment Management Agreement may be terminated without penalty upon not less than 60 days’ written notice by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company, or by the vote of the Company’s Directors or by the Advisor.

From time to time, the Advisor may pay amounts owed by the Company to third-party providers of goods or services and the Company will subsequently reimburse the Advisor for such amounts paid on its behalf.  Amounts payable to the Advisor are settled in the normal course of business without formal payment terms.

21

AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued

The Investment Management Agreement also provides that the Company reimburses the Advisor for certain organizational costs incurred prior to the commencement of the Company’s operations, and for certain offering costs. The Company has agreed to repay the Advisor for initial organizational costs and offering costs up to a maximum of $1.25 million, with the Advisor bearing any organizational and offering costs in excess of such amount.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $0.4 million payable to Angelo Gordon for operating costs which is included in “Accrued expenses and other liabilities payable to affiliate” on the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $0.4 million payable to Angelo Gordon for organizational, offering, and operating costs, which is included in "Due to affiliate", "Organizational costs payable to affiliate" and "Accrued expenses and other liabilities payable to affiliate" on the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.

Under the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, the Company will pay the Advisor a base management fee and may also pay to it certain incentive fees. The cost of both the base management fee and the incentive fee will ultimately be borne by the Company’s shareholders.

The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 0.60% of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents. For services rendered under the Investment Management Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of the Company’s gross assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately pro-rated. For purposes of the Investment Management Agreement, cash equivalents means U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within one year of purchase. Upon the occurrence of a Qualified IPO, the base management fee will be calculated at an annual rate of 1.25% of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company accrued approximately $94,000 and $259,000, respectively, of base management fees payable to the Advisor. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company accrued approximately $8,000 of base management fees payable to the advisor. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, base management fees payable by the Company to the Advisor were approximately $94,000 and $45,000, respectively.

Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement, the Advisor is entitled to an incentive fee (“Incentive Fee”), which consists of two components; an incentive fee based on income and an incentive fee based on capital gains.

The first part, the income incentive fee, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and equals (a) 100% of the excess of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, over a preferred return of 1.00% per quarter (4% annualized) (the “Hurdle”), until the Advisor has received a “catch-up” equal to 16.75% of the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the current quarter; and (b) 16.75% of all remaining pre-incentive fee net investment income above the “catch-up.”

The second part, the capital gains incentive fee, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Investment Management Agreement), and equals 16.75% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of the fiscal year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative

22

AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) - Continued



basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees (the “Cumulative Capital Gains”).
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company accrued approximately $38,000 and $114,000, respectively, of income incentive fees payable to the Advisor, of which $38,000 were unpaid as of September 30, 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Company did not accrue any incentive fees payable to the Advisor.  As of December 31, 2019, there was no income incentive fee or capital gains incentive fee payable to the Advisor.
Affiliated Transactions
The Company may be prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with its affiliates without prior approval of the Company’s Independent Directors, and in some cases, the prior approval of the SEC.  The Company intends to rely on exemptive relief that has been granted by the SEC to the Company, the Advisor, and Angelo Gordon to permit the Company to co-invest with other funds managed by the Advisor or Angelo Gordon, in a manner consistent with the Company’s investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors.

Pursuant to such exemptive relief, the Company is generally permitted to co-invest with certain of its affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the Board make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Company and its shareholders and do not involve overreaching of the Company or its shareholders on the part of any person concerned, (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of the Company’s shareholders and is consistent with its investment objective and strategies, and (3) the investment by its affiliates would not disadvantage the Company, and the Company’s participation would not be on a basis different from or less advantageous than that on which its affiliates are investing. In certain situations where co-investment with one or more funds managed by Angelo Gordon is not permitted or appropriate, Angelo Gordon will need to decide which funds will proceed with the investment.  Angelo Gordon will make these determinations based on its policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Note 10.  Income Taxes
Taxable income generally differs from net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized gains or losses, as unrealized gains or losses are generally not included in taxable income until they are realized.
The Company makes certain adjustments to the classification of net assets as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, which include differences in the book and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities, and nondeductible federal taxes or losses among other items. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to additional paid in capital or total distributable earnings (losses), as appropriate. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, permanent differences were approximately $73,000 and $409,000, respectively, consisting of nondeductible offering costs. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, permanent differences were approximately $103,000, consisting of nondeductible offering costs.

(1)
The per share data was derived using the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.
(2)
Total return is calculated as the change in net asset value ("NAV") per share during the period, plus distributions per share, if any, divided by the NAV per share at the beginning of the period. The total return for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019 is calculated using the denominator of the offering price of $20.00 per share on the initial capital call from investors on July 29, 2019.
(3)
Not annualized.
(4)
Average net assets are computed using the average balance of net assets at the end of each month of the reporting period. Average net assets for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, are computed using the average balance of net assets at the end of each month of the reporting period, beginning with the first capital call on July 29, 2019.
(5)
Ratio of gross expenses to average net assets is computed using expenses before waivers from the Administrator.
(6)
Ratio of net expenses to average net assets is computed using total expenses net of waivers from the Administrator.
(7)
Portfolio turnover rate is calculated using the lesser of total sales or total purchases over the average of the investments at fair value for the periods reported.
(8)
Asset coverage ratio is equal to (i) the sum of (A) net assets at the end of the period and (B) total debt outstanding at the end of the period, divided by (ii) total debt outstanding at the end of the period.

This MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with our 2019 10-K, our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q).

Overview
AG Twin Brook BDC, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on February 4, 2016.  We have elected to be regulated as a Business Development Company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).  In addition, for tax purposes, we have elected to be treated as a Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  We were formed to provide risk-adjusted returns and current income to investors by investing primarily in middle market companies.
We are managed by our Advisor, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Angelo Gordon.  The Advisor is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.  Subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors (the “Board”), our Advisor manages our day-to-day operations, and provides investment advisory and management services to us.  Our Advisor will be responsible for originating prospective investments,



30



conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring our investments, and monitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis.

We conduct private offerings (each, a “Private Offering”), where investors make a capital commitment to purchase shares of our common stock pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with us.  Investors will be required to make capital contributions to purchase shares of our common stock each time the Company delivers a drawdown notice. The initial closing of the Private Offering occurred on July 19, 2019 (the “Initial Closing”).  As of September 30, 2020, we had $216 million in total capital commitments from investors.  Upon the earlier to occur of (i) a Qualified IPO (as defined below), and (ii) the five year anniversary of the Initial Closing, investors will be released from any further obligation to purchase additional shares, subject to certain exceptions. A “Qualified IPO” is an initial public offering (“IPO”) of our common stock that results in an unaffiliated public float of at least the lower of (A) $60 million and (B) 17.5% of the aggregate capital commitments received prior to the date of such initial public offering.
As a BDC, we must invest at least 70% of our assets in “eligible portfolio companies,” generally, U.S. private operating companies (or small U.S. public operating companies with a market capitalization of less than $250 million). As a BDC, we may also invest up to 30% of our portfolio in non-eligible portfolio company investments, such as investments in non-U.S. companies, which may include investments in a “passive foreign investment company” (a “PFIC”).  Because we have elected to be regulated as a BDC, and we intend to continue to qualify as a RIC under the Code, our portfolio will also be subject to the diversification and other requirements under the Code.

Investments
We invest principally in privately originated senior secured loans to U.S. middle market companies, which we believe have consistent capital needs and have not only been underserved in recent years by traditional providers of capital such as banks and the public debt markets, but also for a variety of reasons may prefer working with experienced non-bank lenders. Our origination strategy focuses on the middle market private equity community. This financing is utilized for a variety of purposes, including to fund organic growth, acquisitions, recapitalizations, management buyouts and leveraged buyouts for companies with revenue generally under $500 million. In describing our business, we generally use the term “middle market” to refer to companies with EBITDA of between $3 million and $50 million annually; however, we typically invest in companies with EBITDA of less than $25 million. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisor may determine whether companies qualify as “middle market” in its sole discretion, and we may from time to time invest in larger or smaller companies.

By investing predominantly in senior secured debt, we expect to reduce our risk of principal loss and deliver more stable returns over time as compared with investments in bonds, unsecured loans, mezzanine investments and public, private and project equity. However, we may also invest opportunistically in other parts of the capital structure, including senior secured stretch and unitranche facilities, second lien loans, mezzanine and mezzanine-related loans, and equity investments, as well as select other subordinated instruments either directly or through acquisitions in the secondary market.

The level of our investment activity depends on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to prospective portfolio companies, the level of merger, acquisition and refinancing activity for such companies, the availability of credit to finance transactions, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make, all of which have been, and may continue to be, impacted by COVID-19.



31


Revenues
We generate revenues primarily through the receipt of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we generate income from various loan origination and other fees and from dividends on direct equity investments. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, administration, amendment, and loan servicing fees.  Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized as part of the underlying cost of the investments and accreted or amortized over the life of the investment as interest income. We record contractual prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Our debt investment portfolio consists of primarily floating rate loans. As of September 30, 2020, 100% of our debt investments, based on fair value, bore interest at floating rates, which may be subject to interest rate floors.  Variable-rate investments subject to a floor generally reset periodically to the applicable floor, only if the floor exceeds the index.  Trends in base interest rates, such as LIBOR, may affect our net investment income over the long term. In addition, our results may vary from period to period depending on the interest rates of new investments made during the period compared to investments that were sold or repaid during the period; these results reflect the characteristics of the particular portfolio companies that we invested in or exited during the period and not necessarily any trends in our business or macroeconomic trends.

Dividend income that we receive from our ownership of private securities is recorded pursuant to the terms of the respective investments.

Expenses
Our primary operating expenses will include the payment of fees to the Advisor under the Investment Management Agreement, our allocable portion of overhead expenses under the Administration Agreement and other operating costs described below.

We are responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operations of the Company and locating, structuring, evaluating, consummating, maintaining and disposing of investments and potential investments (whether or not the acquisition is consummated), including but not limited to legal, regulatory, accounting and other professional or third-party costs or disbursements including travel, rent or lodging, out-of-pocket expenses of the Advisor, the fees and expenses of any independent counsel engaged by the Advisor and out-of-pocket expenses related to third-party service providers (including loan servicer fees), placement agent fees and expenses, advertising expenses, litigation expenses, brokerage commissions, clearing and settlement charges and other transaction costs, custody fees, interest expenses, financing charges, initial and variation margin, broken deal expenses, compensation (which may include fees or performance-based compensation) of advisors, consultants and finders, joint venture partners, or other professionals relating to the Company’s operations and investments or potential investments (whether or not completed), which may include costs incurred to attend or sponsor networking and other similar events hosted by both for-profit and not-for-profit organizations (which may include organizations affiliated with current or prospective investors), specific expenses incurred in obtaining, developing or maintaining market data technology systems, research and other information and information service subscriptions utilized with respect to the Company’s investment program including fees to third party providers of research, portfolio risk management services (including the costs of risk management software or database packages), fees of pricing and valuation services, appraisal costs and brokerage expenses. We will also bear all commitment fees and any transfer or recording taxes, registration fees and other expenses in connection with acquisitions and dispositions of investments, and all expenses relating to the ownership and operation of investments, including taxes, interest, insurance, and other fees and expenses. Travel expenses may include first-class airfare and limited use of private or charter aircraft, as well as premium accommodations, in accordance with our Advisor’s policies related thereto.


32


In addition, we will bear all costs of the administration of the Company, including but not limited to accounting expenses (including accounting systems) and expenses relating to audit, legal and regulatory expenses (including filings with U.S. and non-U.S. regulators and compliance obligations), costs associated with our reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940 Act and other applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws, fees and expenses of any administrators in connection with the administration of the Company, expenses relating to the maintenance of registered offices of the Company to the extent provided by unaffiliated service providers, temporary office space of non-employee consultants or auditors, blue sky and corporate filing fees and expenses, corporate licensing expenses, indemnification expenses, costs of holding any meetings or conferences of investors or their delegates or advisors (including meetings of the Advisor and related activities), Independent Directors’ fees and expenses, costs of any litigation or threatened litigation or costs of any investigation or legal inquiries involving Company activities (including regulatory sweeps), the cost of any liability insurance or fidelity coverage for the Company, including any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and key-person life insurance policies, maintained with respect to liabilities arising in connection with the activities of our directors and officers conducted on behalf of the Company, costs associated with reporting and providing information to existing and prospective investors, including printing and mailing costs, wind-up and liquidation expenses, and any extraordinary expenses arising in connection with the operations of the Company.

We have agreed to repay the Advisor for initial organization and offering costs up to a maximum of $1.25 million, of which the Advisor has incurred approximately $1.1 million as of September 30, 2020.

From time to time, the Administrator or its affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services. We will reimburse the Administrator or such affiliates thereof for any such amounts paid on our behalf.

Leverage
We have obtained a subscription facility to meet our capital needs.  We may borrow money from time to time within the levels permitted by the 1940 Act.

Impact of COVID-19
In late 2019 and early 2020, a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and related respiratory disease ("COVID-19") emerged in China and spread rapidly across the world, including to the U.S. This outbreak has led and for an unknown period of time will continue to lead to disruptions in local, regional, national and global markets and economies affected thereby. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will adversely impact our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of this outbreak, and any future outbreaks.

It is clear that these types of events are negatively impacting and will, for at least some time, continue to negatively impact our business and portfolio companies and in many instances the impact will be profound. For example, smaller and middle market companies in which we may invest are being significantly impacted by these events and the uncertainty caused by these events. With respect to loans to such companies, we have been, and may continue to be impacted if, among other things, (i) amendments and waivers are granted (or are required to be granted) to borrowers permitting deferral of loan payments or allowing for payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest payments, (ii) borrowers default on their loans, are unable to refinance their loans at maturity, or go out of business permanently, and/or (iii) the value of loans we hold decreases as a result of such events and the uncertainty they cause. Such events have caused us, and may continue to cause us, to suffer losses. We will also be negatively affected if the operations and effectiveness of our Adviser or a portfolio company (or any of the key personnel or service providers of the foregoing) is compromised or if necessary or beneficial systems and processes are disrupted as a result of the interruptions to regular business operations caused by COVID-19.



33


With respect to our investments, we have taken, and will continue to take, steps to actively oversee all of our individual portfolio companies. These measures include, among other things, frequent communication with our portfolio company management teams and related private equity sponsors to understand the expected financial performance impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on economic and market conditions have increased the  demands to provide capital to our existing portfolio companies. We maintain adequate cash, capital commitments and additional borrowing capacity in reserve to meet any further such draw requests.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we experienced unrealized losses across the fair value of our investments resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. We experienced a decrease in our net assets resulting from operations for the first six months of 2020 and an increase for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

It is impossible to determine the scope of this outbreak, or any future outbreaks, how long any such outbreak, market disruption or uncertainties may last, the effect any governmental actions will have or the full potential impact on our business, the Advisor and portfolio companies. The impact of this outbreak, or any future outbreaks, while uncertain, could materially adversely affect our and our portfolio companies’ operating results.

Investments held as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were based solely in the United States.

The weighted average yields and interest rates of our funded debt investments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

(1)  Calculated using actual interest rates in effect as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 based on borrower elections.

The weighted average yield of our funded debt investments is not the same as a return on investment for our shareholders but, rather, relates to a portion of our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of our and our subsidiaries’ fees and expenses. The weighted average yield was computed using the effective interest rates of each investment as of each respective date, including accretion of original issue discount, but excluding investments on non-accrual status, if any. There can be no assurance that the weighted average yield will remain at its current level.

Our Advisor monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if they are meeting their respective business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action with respect to each portfolio company. Our Advisor has several methods of



36


evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:

•   assessment of success of the portfolio company in adhering to its 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 companies in the portfolio company’s industry; and
•   review of monthly or quarterly financial statements and financial projections for portfolio companies.

As part of the monitoring process, our Advisor employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Advisor rates the credit risk of all debt investments on a scale of A to F. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account the performance of the portfolio company’s business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The rating system is as follows:

Investment Ratings
  Description
A
 
A loan supported by exceptional financial strength, stability and liquidity;
B
 
As a general rule, a new transaction will be risk rated a “B” loan. Overtime, a “B” loan is supported by good financial strength, stability and liquidity;
C
 
A loan that is exhibiting deteriorating trends, which if not corrected could jeopardize repayment of the debt. In general, a default by the borrower of one of its financial performance covenants (leverage or coverage ratios) would warrant downgrade of a loan to a risk rating of “C”;
D   A loan that has a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes the repayment of the debt or the ongoing enterprise value of the borrower;
E
 
A loan that has an uncured payment default; and
F  
An asset that is considered uncollectible or of such little value that its continuance as a booked asset is unwarranted.

Our Advisor rates the investments in our portfolio at least quarterly and it is possible that the rating of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments rated C through F, our Advisor enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company.

The following table shows the composition of our debt investments on the A to F rating scale as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full.  Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status.  Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the Advisor’s judgment regarding collectability.  Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in the Advisor’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

Under the terms of the Administration Agreement and Investment Management Agreement, we reimburse the Administrator and Advisor, respectively, for services performed for us. In addition, pursuant to the terms of these agreements, the Administrator and Advisor may delegate its obligations under these agreements to an affiliate or to a third party and we reimburse the Administrator and Advisor for any services performed for us by such affiliate or third party.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Administrator had the option to charge approximately $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for certain costs and expenses allocable to us under the terms of the Administration Agreement, all of which were waived and borne by the Administrator for those periods. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, the Administrator had the option to charge approximately $0.1 million for certain costs and expenses allocable to the Company under the terms of the Administration Agreement, all of which were waived and borne by the Administrator for those periods.

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
Total net expenses increased to $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $0.5 million for the same period in the prior year primarily due to increases in professional fees, management fees, and income incentive fees. These increases were largely driven by our deployment of capital and increased balance of our investments.

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and Period from May 6, 2019 (Inception) to September 30, 2019
Total net expenses increased to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from $0.9 million for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019 primarily due to increases in


39


interest expense, professional fees, and management fees. These increases were largely a result of our operating for all nine months in 2020 and a shorter period of time in 2019.

Income Taxes, including Excise Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to operate in a manner so as to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute to our shareholders in each taxable year generally at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, and net tax-exempt income for that taxable year. To maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we, among other things, intend to make the requisite distributions to our shareholders, which generally relieves us from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we can be expected to carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year dividend distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such income, we will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, we did not accrue any U.S. federal excise tax.

We conduct certain activities through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Twin Brook Equity XVIII Corp., a Delaware C corporation. Twin Brook Equity XVIII Corp. is treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes and is subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, we did not accrue any U.S. federal tax expense.

Net Change in Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Investments
We fair value our portfolio investments quarterly and any changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, and for the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, net unrealized gains (losses) on our investment portfolio were as follows:

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the net unrealized gain was primarily driven by an increase in the fair value of our debt investments as compared to June 30, 2020. The primary drivers of our portfolio's unrealized gains were changing market conditions resulting in credit spreads tightening during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and Period from May 6, 2019 (Inception) to September 30, 2019
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the net unrealized loss was primarily driven by a decrease in the fair value of our debt investments compared to December 31, 2019. The primary drivers of our portfolio's unrealized losses were changing market conditions resulting in credit spreads widening during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from the proceeds of capital drawdowns of our privately placed capital commitments, cash flows from interest, dividends and fees earned from our investments and principal repayments, and our subscription facility. The primary uses of our cash are (1) investments in portfolio companies and other investments to comply with certain portfolio diversification requirements, (2) the cost of operations (including paying our Advisor), (3) debt service of any borrowings and (4) cash distributions to the holders of our stock.

We may from time to time increase the size of our existing subscription facility. Any such incurrence would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to incur borrowings, issue debt securities or issue preferred stock, if immediately after the borrowing or issuance, the ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness plus preferred stock, is at least 200%. As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s asset coverage ratio was 6,818.9%.  As of  December 31, 2019, our asset coverage ratio was  756.9%. We seek to carefully consider our unfunded commitments for the purpose of planning our ongoing financial leverage. Further, we maintain sufficient borrowing capacity within the 200% asset coverage limitation to cover any outstanding unfunded commitments we are required to fund.

Cash as of September 30, 2020, taken together with our uncalled capital commitments of $148.0 million and available debt capacity of $15.3 million, is expected to be sufficient for our investing activities and to conduct our operations.

As of September 30, 2020, we had $3.9 million in cash.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we used $23.7 million in cash for operating activities, primarily as a result of funding portfolio investments of $34.8 million, partially offset by sales and paydowns of portfolio investments of $9.6 million, and other operating activities of $1.5 million.  Cash provided by financing activities was $18.5 million during the period, which was primarily the result of proceeds from the issuance of shares of $24.8 million, partially offset by net payments on our credit facility of $5.5 million, dividend payments of $0.7 million, and payments for deferred financing and offering costs of $0.1 million.


41


As of September 30, 2019, we had $18.9 million in cash. During the period from May 6, 2019 (inception) to September 30, 2019, we used $22.7 million in cash for operating activities, primarily as a result of funding portfolio investments of $23.0 million, partially offset by sales of portfolio investments of $0.1 million, and other operating activities of $0.2 million. Cash provided by financing activities was $41.5 million during the period, which was primarily the result of proceeds from the issuance of shares and proceeds from net borrowings on our credit facility.

Equity
Subscriptions and Drawdowns
We have the authority to issue 100,000,000 shares of our common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.

Debt
Subscription Facility
In accordance with the 1940 Act, we can borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowings, subject to certain limitations.  As of September 30, 2020, the Company’s  asset coverage ratio was 6,818.9%.  As of December 31, 2019, our asset coverage was 756.9%.

On August 14, 2019, we entered into a revolving credit facility (the “Subscription Facility”), pursuant to a Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended, with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”).  The Subscription Facility enables us to request loans from the Subscription Facility Lender up to a maximum commitment of $50 million.  The borrowings under the Subscription Facility are collateralized by the eligible unfunded capital commitments of our investors.  The total amount available under the Subscription Facility may be reduced as a result of decreases in the unfunded capital commitments of our investors as well as other provisions of the Subscription Facility agreement.

Borrowings under the Subscription Facility bear interest at either (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin of 1.50%, if the borrowing is a LIBOR Rate Loan or (ii) the Prime Rate plus the applicable margin of 0.50%, if the borrowing is a Reference Rate Loan.  As of September 30, 2020, the outstanding borrowings under the Subscription Facility bore interest at an all-in rate of 1.66%. As of December 31, 2019, the outstanding borrowings under the Subscription Facility bore interest at all-in rates ranging from 3.19% to 3.31%.  In addition, we pay an unused commitment fee of 0.20% per annum on the daily unused commitments of the Lender.  The maturity date of the Subscription Facility is August 12, 2022.
The Subscription Facility agreement subjects us to certain covenants including, but not limited to, providing financial information and requirements concerning compliance with certain financial tests and investor attributes.  As of September 30, 2020, we are in compliance with such covenants.

Further, we maintain sufficient borrowing capacity within the 200% asset coverage ratio, along with undrawn capital commitments of our investors, to cover any outstanding portfolio company unfunded commitments we are required to fund.

Investor Commitments
As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $216.0 million in total capital commitments from investors ($148.0 million and $172.8 million, respectively, undrawn).  These undrawn capital commitments will no longer remain in effect following the completion of a Qualified IPO.

Related Party Transactions
We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the Investment Management Agreement, the Administration Agreement, and the Resource Sharing Agreement.
In addition to the aforementioned agreements, we intend to rely on exemptive relief that has been granted to us, our Advisor, and Angelo Gordon to permit us to co-invest with other funds managed by Angelo Gordon in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and


45


restrictions as well as any regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors.  See “Item 1. – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 6. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” for further description of our related party transactions.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us 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. Our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2020, and elsewhere in our filings with the SEC. There have been no significant changes this quarter in our critical accounting policies and practices.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Uncertainty with respect to the economic effects of the COVID-19 outbreak has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets, and the effect of the volatility could materially impact our market risks, including those listed below. We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk and interest rate risk.

Valuation Risk
We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, primarily in illiquid debt and equity securities of private companies. Most of our investments will not have a readily available market price, and therefore, we will value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board, based on, among other things, the input of our Advisor and independent third party valuation firm(s) engaged at the direction of the Board, and in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.

Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. We may fund portions of our investments with borrowings on a short term basis, and at such time, our net investment income will be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

As of September 30, 2020, 100% of our debt investments based on fair value in our portfolio were at floating rates.


46


Based on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of September 30, 2020, the following table shows the annualized impact on net income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates on our debt investments and leverage (considering interest rate floors for floating rate instruments) assuming each floating rate investment is subject to 3-month LIBOR and there are no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:

To a limited extent, we may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using hedging instruments such as futures, options, swaps and forward contracts, and credit hedging contracts, such as credit default swaps. However, no assurance can be given that such hedging transactions will be entered into or, if they are, that they will be effective.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


47


PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, are any material legal proceedings threatened against us. From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Our business is also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us. While the outcome of any such future legal or regulatory proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that any such future proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties are not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has caused, and for an unknown period of time, will continue to cause, disruptions in global debt and equity markets and economies in regions in which we operate.

In late 2019 and early 2020, COVID-19 emerged in China and spread rapidly to across the world, including to the U.S. This outbreak has led, and for an unknown period of time will continue to lead, to disruptions in local, regional, national and global markets and economies affected thereby.  With respect to the U.S. credit markets (in particular for middle market loans), this outbreak has resulted in, and until fully resolved is likely to continue to result in, the following, among other things: (i)  government imposition of various forms of “stay at home” orders and the closing of “non-essential” businesses, resulting in significant disruption to the businesses of many middle-market loan borrowers including supply chains, demand and practical aspects of their operations, as well as in lay-offs of employees, and, while these effects are hoped to be temporary, some effects could be persistent or even permanent; (ii) increased draws by borrowers on revolving lines of credit and other financing instruments; (iii) increased requests by borrowers for amendments and waivers of their credit agreements to avoid default, increased defaults by such borrowers and/or increased difficulty in obtaining refinancing at the maturity dates of their loans; (iv) volatility and disruption of these  markets including greater volatility in pricing and spreads and difficulty in valuing loans during periods of increased volatility, and liquidity issues; and (v) rapidly evolving proposals and/or actions by state and federal governments to address problems being experienced by the markets and by businesses and the economy in general which will not necessarily adequately address the problems facing the loan market and middle market businesses. This outbreak is having, and any future outbreaks could have, an adverse impact on the markets and the economy in general, which could have a material adverse impact on, among other things, the ability of lenders to originate loans, the volume and type of loans originated, the ability of borrowers to make payments and the volume and type of amendments and waivers granted to borrowers and remedial actions taken in the event of a borrower default, each of which could negatively impact the amount and quality of loans available for investment by us and the returns to us, among other things. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, it is impossible to determine the scope of this outbreak, or any future outbreaks, how long any such outbreak, market disruption or uncertainties may last, the effect any governmental actions will have or the full potential impact on our business, the Advisor and portfolio companies. Any


48


potential impact to our results of operations will depend to a large extent on future developments and new information that could emerge regarding the duration and severity of COVID-19 and the actions taken by authorities and other entities to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control. These potential impacts, while uncertain, could materially adversely affect our and our portfolio companies’ operating results.

Although it is impossible to predict the precise nature and consequences of these events, or of any political or policy decisions and regulatory changes occasioned by emerging events or uncertainty on applicable laws or regulations that impact our business, our portfolio companies and our investments, it is clear that these types of events are negatively impacting and will, for at least some time, continue to negatively impact us and our portfolio companies and in many instances the impact will be profound.  Many of the middle market companies in which we may invest are being significantly negatively impacted by these emerging events and the uncertainty caused by these events.  With respect to loans to such companies, our business will be impacted if, among other things, (i) amendments and waivers are granted (or are required to be granted) to borrowers permitting deferral of loan payments or allowing for payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest payments, (ii) borrowers default on their loans, are unable to refinance their loans at maturity, or go out of business permanently, and/or (iii) the value of our loans decrease as a result of such events and the uncertainty they cause. Such emerging events, to the extent experienced, will cause us to suffer a loss on our investments or interest thereon. We will also be negatively affected if the operations and effectiveness of the Advisor or a portfolio company (or any of the key personnel or service providers of the foregoing) is compromised or if necessary or beneficial systems and processes are disrupted as a result of interruptions to regular business operations. For more information regarding the impact of current events and market conditions on our business and our portfolio companies, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

Uncertainty can result in, or coincide with, among other things: increased volatility in the financial markets for securities, derivatives, loans, credit and currency; a decrease in the reliability of market prices and difficulty in valuing assets (including portfolio company assets); greater fluctuations in spreads on debt investments and currency exchange rates; increased risk of default (by both government and private obligors and issuers); further social, economic, and political instability; nationalization of private enterprise; greater governmental involvement in the economy or in social factors that impact the economy; changes to governmental regulation and supervision of the loan, securities, derivatives and currency markets and market participants and decreased or revised monitoring of such markets by governments or self-regulatory organizations and reduced enforcement of regulations; limitations on the activities of investors in such markets; controls or restrictions on foreign investment, capital controls and limitations on repatriation of invested capital; the significant loss of liquidity and the inability to purchase, sell and otherwise fund investments or settle transactions (including, but not limited to, a market freeze); unavailability of currency hedging techniques; substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation, which can last many years and have substantial negative effects on credit and securities markets as well as the economy as a whole; recessions; and difficulties in obtaining and/or enforcing legal judgments. Any or all of these items could materially adversely affect our and our portfolio companies’ operating results.

We currently are operating in a period of capital markets disruption, significant volatility and economic uncertainty.

The global capital markets are experiencing a period of disruption and instability resulting in increasing spreads between the yields realized on riskier debt securities and those realized on risk-free securities, lack of liquidity in parts of the debt capital markets, significant write-offs in the financial services sector and the re-pricing of credit risk in the broadly syndicated market. Highly disruptive market conditions have resulted in increased volatility and illiquidity in the global credit, debt and equity markets generally. The duration and ultimate effect of such market conditions cannot be accurately forecasted. Extreme


49


uncertainty regarding economic markets has resulted, and may continue to result, in declines in the market values of potential investments and declines in the market values of investments after they are made or acquired by us, and has affected and may continue to affect, the potential for liquidity events involving such investments or portfolio companies. During periods of market disruption, portfolio companies may be more likely to seek to draw on unfunded commitments we have made, and the risk of being unable to fund such commitments is heightened during such periods. Applicable accounting standards require us to determine the fair value of our investments as the amount that would be received in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. While our investments are not publicly traded, as part of our valuation process we consider a number of measures, including comparison to publicly traded securities. As a result, volatility in the public capital markets can adversely affect our investment valuations.

A prolonged period of market illiquidity may cause us to reduce the volume of loans and debt securities we originate and/or fund and adversely affect the value of our portfolio investments, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Except as previously reported by the Company on its current reports on Form 8-K, we did not sell any securities during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that were not registered under the Securities Act.
