Stone Point Credit Corporation

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2021

 

 

 

Note 1.

Organization

Organization

Stone Point Credit Corporation (the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware limited liability company on September 8, 2020 with the name Stone Point Capital Credit LLC. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In connection with its election to be regulated as a BDC, the Company converted to a Delaware corporation, changed its name to Stone Point Credit Corporation, and commenced operations on December 1, 2020. In addition, for tax purposes, Stone Point Credit Corporation 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 is managed by Stone Point Credit Adviser LLC (the “Adviser”). The Adviser is a Delaware limited liability company that is registered with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). Subject to the supervision of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), the Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of the Company and provides the Company with investment advisory and management services. The Adviser is an affiliate of Stone Point Capital LLC (“Stone Point”), which is a privately held firm specializing in investments within the global financial services industry.

On June 11, 2021, the Company formed SPCC Funding I LLC (the “SPV”), a wholly-owned financing subsidiary, for the purpose of holding pledged investments as collateral under a financing facility.

The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. The Company intends to invest primarily in senior secured or unsecured loans and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans, mezzanine loans and equity-related securities including warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity, which may or may not be convertible into a portfolio company’s common equity.

 

Note 2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and the SPV. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All references made to the “Company,” “we,” and “us” herein include Stone Point Credit Corporation and the consolidated SPV. The Company is an investment company and, therefore, applies the specialized accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31. The functional currency of the Company is U.S. dollars.

Interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X, as appropriate. Accordingly, they may not include all information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. The current period’s results of operations will not necessarily be indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2021.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

Table of Contents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consists of deposits in a money market account and demand deposits held at a custodian bank. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s deposits may, at times, exceed the insured limits under applicable law.

Deferred Financing Costs

Financing costs incurred in connection with the Company’s borrowings (see Note 6) are deferred and amortized over the life of the corresponding facility.

Organizational and Offering Expenses

Organizational expenses are costs associated with the organization of the Company and are expensed as incurred. Offering expenses are costs associated with the offering of common shares of the Company and are capitalized as deferred offering expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferred offering expenses are amortized over a twelve-month period beginning with the latter of either December 1, 2020 (Commencement of Operations) or from incurrence.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code. So long as the Company maintains its tax treatment as a RIC, it generally will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains distributed to shareholders as dividends. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements as well as distribute each taxable year dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of the Company’s “investment company taxable income,” which is generally the Company’s net ordinary income plus the excess of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses and determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid. In order for the Company not to be subject to U.S. federal excise taxes, it must distribute 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 gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any net ordinary income and capital gains in excess of capital losses for preceding years that were not distributed during such years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on this income.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken while 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 later based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. There were no material uncertain income tax positions through June 30, 2021.

Valuation of Portfolio Securities

Valuations of investments are approved by the Board at the end of each calendar quarter. In instances where there is no readily available market value, the Company’s investments are valued at fair value with the input of the Adviser’s valuation committee and an external, independent valuation firm that is retained by the Adviser to review the Company’s investments as needed. Investments for which market quotations are readily available may be priced by independent pricing services.

The Company’s investment portfolio is recorded at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures established by the Board and, as a result, there is and will be uncertainty as to the value of the Company’s portfolio investments. Under the 1940 Act, the Company is required to carry its portfolio investments at market value or, if there is no readily available market value, at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by the Board. There is not a public market or active secondary market for many of the types of investments in privately held companies that the Company intends to hold and make. The Company’s investments may not be publicly traded or actively traded on a secondary market but, instead, may be traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional investors, if at all. As a result, these investments are valued quarterly at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with valuation policy and procedures approved by the Board.

The determination of fair value, and thus the amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation the Company may recognize in any reporting period, is to a degree subjective, and the Adviser has a conflict of interest in making recommendations of fair value. The types of factors that may be considered in determining the fair values of the Company’s investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow, current market interest rates, precedent transactions and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, the valuations may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time due to changes in current market conditions. The determinations of fair value in accordance with procedures established by the Board may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market and market quotations existed for such investments. The Company’s net asset value could be adversely affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of the investments were materially higher than the values that the Company ultimately realizes upon the disposal of such investments.

Table of Contents

Company Common Stock Share Valuation

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the net asset value per share of the outstanding shares of common stock is determined at least quarterly by dividing the value of total assets minus liabilities by the total number of shares outstanding.

Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation

The Company measures realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees and prepayment penalties. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation, when gains or losses are realized.

Interest and Dividend Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Discounts and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted and amortized, respectively, into interest income over the contractual life of the respective security using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts, if any. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income in the current period. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discounts are capitalized and the amounts are amortized into income using the effective interest method.

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 management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’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. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, no investments were on non-accrual status.

Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. There were no dividend income generating investments for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Fee Income

The Company, or its affiliates, may receive fees for capital structuring services. These fees are generally non-recurring and are recognized as fee income by the Company on the investment closing date. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company earned fee income of $133,125 and $1,173,750, respectively.

 

Note 3.

Agreements and Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

Subject to the supervision of the Board and pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Company and the Adviser (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), the Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of the Company and provides the Company with investment advisory and management services. Among other things, the Adviser (i) determines the composition and allocation of the Company’s investment portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes therein and the manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments made by the Company; (iii) performs due diligence on prospective portfolio companies; (iv) executes, closes, services and monitors the Company’s investments; (v) determines the securities and other assets that the Company will purchase, retain or sell; (vi) arranges financings and borrowing facilities for the Company and (vii) provides the Company with such other investment advisory, research and related services as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of its fund and (viii) to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, on the Company’s behalf, and in coordination with any sub-adviser and any administrator, provides significant managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance under the 1940 Act, including utilizing appropriate personnel of the Adviser to, among other things, monitor the operations of the Company’s portfolio companies, participate in board and management meetings, consult with and advise officers of portfolio companies and provide other organizational and financial consultation. The Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and the Adviser is generally free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its performance under the Investment Advisory Agreement is not adversely affected.

 

12


Table of Contents

Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company will pay the Adviser (i) a base management fee and (ii) an incentive fee as compensation for the investment advisory and management services it provides the Company thereunder.

Base Management Fee

The Company will pay to the Adviser an asset-based fee (the “Management Fee”) for management services in an amount equal to an annual rate of 1.30% of the average value of the Company’s gross assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) for the most recently completed calendar quarter payable quarterly in arrears. The Management Fee for any partial quarter will be appropriately prorated and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the relevant calendar months or quarters. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred management fees of $787,528 and $1,075,353, respectively.

Incentive Fee

Beginning on the fourth anniversary of the date on which shareholders are required to fund their initial drawdown (the “Incentive Commencement Date”), the Company will pay the Adviser an incentive fee (“Incentive Fee”) as set forth below. The Incentive Fee will consist of two parts. The first part (the “Investment Income Incentive Fee”) will be calculated and payable following the Incentive Commencement Date on a quarterly basis, in arrears, and will equal 15% of “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a quarterly preferred return of 1.75% (i.e., 7% annualized) measured on a quarterly basis and a “catch-up” feature. For purposes of computing the initial installment of the Investment Income Incentive Fee, if the Incentive Commencement Date does not fall on the first day of a calendar quarter, then the initial payment of the Investment Income Incentive Fee shall be payable for the period that commences on the Incentive Commencement Date through the last day of the first complete calendar quarter immediately following the Incentive Commencement Date and, thereafter, at the end of each subsequent calendar quarter as described above. The second part (the “Capital Gains Incentive Fee”) will be an annual fee that will also commence with the period beginning on the Incentive Commencement Date and will be determined and payable following the Incentive Commencement Date, in arrears, as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement) in an amount equal to 15% of realized capital gains, if any, determined on a cumulative basis from the Incentive Commencement Date (based on the fair market value of each investment as of such date) through the end of such calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement), computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis from the Incentive Commencement Date (based on the fair market value of each investment as of such date) through the end of such calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Incentive Fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not incur any performance-based incentive fees.

Administration Agreement

The Adviser also serves as the administrator of the Company (in such capacity, the “Administrator”). Subject to the supervision of the Board, the Administrator provides the administrative services necessary for the Company to operate and the Company will utilize the Administrator’s office facilities, equipment and recordkeeping services. The Company will reimburse the Administrator for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator in providing these services, facilities and personnel, as provided by the administration agreement by and between the Company and the Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”). In addition, the Administrator is permitted to delegate its duties under the Administration Agreement to affiliates or third parties, and the Company will reimburse the expenses of these parties incurred directly and/or paid by the Administrator on the Company’s behalf.

The Company will reimburse the Administrator for the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including furnishing the Company with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and recordkeeping services at such facilities, as well as providing the Company with other administrative services. In addition, the Company will reimburse the Administrator for the fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions, and the Company’s allocable portion of the compensation of certain of the Company’s officers, including the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and any support staff. The Adviser can waive any amounts owed to it under the Administration Agreement, at its discretion.

Sub-Administration and Custodian Fees

On January 22, 2021, the Adviser entered into a sub-administration agreement with U.S. Bank Global Fund Services (the “Sub-Administrator”) under which the Sub-Administrator provides various accounting and other administrative services with respect to the Company. The Company pays the Sub-Administrator fees for services the Adviser determines are commercially reasonable in its sole discretion. The Company also reimburses the Sub-Administrator for all reasonable expenses. To the extent that the Sub-Administrator outsources any of its functions, the Sub-Administrator pays any compensation associated with such functions. The Sub-Administrator also serves as the Company’s custodian (the “Custodian”).

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred expenses for services provided by the Sub-Administrator and the Custodian of $61,120 and $106,114 on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as professional fees, respectively.

The unrealized appreciation or depreciation associated with unfunded portfolio company commitments is recorded in the financial statements and reflected as an adjustment to the valuation of the related security in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The par amount of the unfunded portfolio company commitments is not recognized by the Company until the commitment is funded.

The credit agreements of the unfunded portfolio company commitments contain customary lending provisions which are subject to the portfolio company’s achievement of certain milestones. In instances where the underlying company experiences material adverse effects that would impact the financial condition or business outlook of the company, there is relief to the Company from funding obligations for previously made commitments. Unfunded portfolio company commitments may expire without being drawn upon, and therefore, do not necessarily represent future cash requirements or future earning assets for the Company. We believe that we maintain sufficient liquidity in the form of cash, financing capacity and undrawn capital commitments from our investors to cover any outstanding unfunded portfolio company commitments we may be required to fund.

Borrowings

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limitations, BDCs are allowed to borrow amounts such that their asset coverage ratios, as defined in the 1940 Act, are at least 200% (or 150% if certain conditions are met) after such borrowing. As a result of complying with the requirements set forth in the Small Business Credit Availability Act, the Company is able to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage ratio is at least 150%, rather than 200%. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s asset coverage ratios were 245% and 243%, respectively.

Capital Call Facility

Effective as of December 29, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (the “Capital Call Facility”) by and among, inter alios, the Company as the initial borrower, the lenders from time-to-time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) and Capital One, National Association, as the administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), sole lead arranger and a Lender.

The Capital Call Facility provides for a maximum commitment of up to $200,000,000 for a period of up to two years (including extension terms) from the Closing Date subject to the terms set forth in the Capital Call Facility. Under the Capital Call Facility, an unused commitment fee at the rate of 0.35% per annum on the unused portion of the commitment of the Lenders is payable by the Company to the Administrative Agent.

The proceeds of the loans under the Capital Call Facility may be used to acquire portfolio investments and such other uses as permitted under the Capital Call Facility. At the Company’s option, the Capital Call Facility will accrue interest at a rate per annum based on (i) an adjusted LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 1.75% or (ii) the greatest of (1) the prime rate plus an applicable margin of 0.75%, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% plus an applicable margin of 0.75% or (3) daily LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.75%.

The maturity date is the earliest of: (a) December 29, 2021; (b) the date upon which the Administrative Agent declares the Company’s obligations under the Capital Call Facility (the “Obligations”) due and payable after the occurrence of an event of default under the Capital Call Facility; (c) 45 days prior to the termination of the Company’s Operative Documents (as defined in the Capital Call Facility); (d) 45 days prior to the date on which the Company’s ability to call capital commitments for the purpose of repaying the Obligations is terminated, and (e) the date upon which the Company terminates the commitments of the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Capital Call Facility or otherwise.

The Capital Call Facility includes customary covenants as well as usual and customary events of default for revolving credit facilities of this nature.

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying amount of the Company’s borrowings under the Capital Call Facility approximated their fair value. As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, unamortized financing costs of $422,160 and $535,984, respectively, are being deferred over the remaining term of the Capital Call Facility. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had an outstanding balance of $80,000,000 and $17,000,000, respectively. The Capital Call Facility is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities which is the net of the unamortized financing costs and the outstanding balance, totaling $79,577,840 as of June 30, 2021 and $16,464,016 as of December 31, 2020. The following table shows additional information about the interest and financing costs related to the Capital Call Facility for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021:

Revolving Credit Facility

On June 28, 2021, the SPV entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPM”). JPM serves as administrative agent and lender, U.S. Bank, National Association, serves as collateral agent, securities intermediary and collateral administrator, and Stone Point Credit Adviser LLC serves as portfolio manager under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Table of Contents

Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a per annum rate equal to: (a) for advances denominated in USD, the three-month London interbank offered rate, (b) for advances denominated in CAD, the average rate applicable to CAD bankers’ acceptances for a three-month period, (c) for advances denominated in GBP, the daily simple Sterling Overnight Index Average for each day, (d) for advances denominated in AUD, the three-month average bid reference rate administered by the Australian Financial Markets Association for Australian dollar bills, and (e) for advances denominated in Euros, the three-month Euro interbank offered rate, in each case, in effect, plus the applicable margin of 2.45% per annum (or, for advances denominated in GBP, 2.5693% per annum). The SPV will also pay a commitment fee of (x) initially, to but excluding September 28, 2021, 0.25% per annum, (y) from and including September 28, 2021 to but excluding the first anniversary of the Revolving Credit Facility, 0.50% per annum, and (z) from and including the first anniversary of the Revolving Credit Facility, 0.60% per annum, in each case, on the average daily unused amount of the financing commitments until the third anniversary of the Revolving Credit Facility.

The initial committed amount of the Revolving Credit Facility is $250 million. The Revolving Credit Facility has an accordion feature, subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, which could bring total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to $500 million. All amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility must be repaid by June 28, 2026.

The SPV’s obligations to the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the SPV’s portfolio of investments and cash. The obligations of the SPV under the Revolving Credit Facility are non-recourse to the Company, and the Company’s exposure under the Revolving Credit Facility is limited to the value of the Company’s investment in the SPV.

In connection with the Revolving Credit Facility, the SPV has made certain customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default for similar financing transactions, including if a change of control of the SPV occurs. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility immediately due and payable.

The occurrence of an event of default (as described above) or a Market Value Event (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) triggers a requirement that the SPV obtain the consent of JPM prior to entering into any sale or disposition with respect to portfolio assets, and the occurrence of a market value event triggers the right of JPM to direct the SPV to enter into sales or dispositions with respect to any portfolio assets, in each case in JPM’s sole discretion.

As of June 30, 2021, the carrying amount of the Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility approximated its fair value. As of June 30, 2021, unamortized financing costs of $2,789,261 are being deferred over the remaining term of the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had an outstanding balance of $100,000,000. The Revolving Credit Facility is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities which is the net of the unamortized financing costs and the outstanding balance, totaling $97,210,739 as of June 30, 2021. Given the Revolving Credit Facility closed on June 28, 2021, there was no balance reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of December 31, 2020. The following table shows additional information about the interest and financing costs related to the Revolving Credit Facility for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021:

Fair Value of Investments

Under ASC Topic 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller at the measurement date. For the Company’s portfolio securities, fair value is generally the amount that the Company might reasonably expect to receive upon the current sale of the security. The fair value measurement assumes that the sale occurs in the principal market for the security, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the security. If no market for the security exists or if the Company does not have access to the principal market, the security should be valued based on the sale occurring in a hypothetical market.

 

18


Table of Contents

ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:

Level 1 Inputs – include quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Inputs – include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 Inputs – include inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument is categorized within the ASC Topic 820 valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest level of input to the valuation process that is significant to the fair value measurement. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). Therefore, unrealized appreciation and depreciation related to such investments categorized as Level 3 investments within the tables below may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3). Transfers between levels, if any, will be recognized at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred.

The Company’s investment portfolio will include certain debt and equity instruments of privately held companies for which quoted prices or other inputs falling within the categories of Level 1 and Level 2 are generally not available. In such cases, the Company determines the fair value of the Company’s investments in good faith primarily using Level 3 inputs. In certain cases, quoted prices or other observable inputs exist, and if so, the Company assesses the appropriateness of the use of these third-party quotes in determining fair value based on (i) the Company’s understanding of the level of actual transactions used by the broker to develop the quote and whether the quote was an indicative price or binding offer and (ii) the depth and consistency of broker quotes and the correlation of changes in broker quotes with underlying performance of the portfolio company.

There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith, as fair value depends upon the specific circumstances of each individual investment. The recorded fair values of the Company’s Level 3 investments may differ significantly from fair values that would have been used had an active market for the securities existed. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2021.

Note 10.

Earnings Per Share

In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”), basic and diluted net increase in net assets resulting from operations per common share is computed by dividing the net increase in net assets resulting from operations by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The methodology for the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period utilizes the weighted average number of shares from December 31, 2020 through June 30, 2021. Other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis. As of June 30, 2021, there were no dilutive shares.

Taxes

The Company intends to qualify as a regulated investment company, to distribute substantially all of its income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, the Company intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax. The Company did not have any liabilities for uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits.

The amount shown at this caption is the balancing amount derived from the other figures in the schedule. The amount shown at this caption for a share outstanding throughout the period does not agree with the change in the aggregate appreciation and depreciation in portfolio securities for the period because of the timing of sales of the Company’s shares in relation to fluctuating market values for the portfolio. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, net unrealized appreciation was $0.51 per weighted average share outstanding.

3 

Total return is based upon the change in net asset value per share between the opening and ending net asset values per share. Total return is not annualized and does not include a sales load.

4 

Portfolio turnover is not annualized.

5 

The ratios reflect an annualized amount. Non-recurring expenses were not annualized. During the period, the Company incurred $193,139 of Offering Expenses, which were deemed to be non-recurring.

 

Note 13.

Equity

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued 11,688,090 shares of common stock at an average price of $19.68 per share through private placement offerings resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of $230.0 million.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless indicated otherwise, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Stone Point Credit Corporation, and the “Adviser” refers to Stone Point Credit Adviser LLC, an affiliate of Stone Point Capital LLC (together with the Adviser and their other affiliates, collectively, “Stone Point”).

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such statements are not historical facts and are based on current expectations, estimates, projections, opinions and/or beliefs of the Company and/or Stone Point. You can identify these statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue” or “believe” or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our plans, strategies, prospects and expectations concerning our business, operating results, financial condition and other similar matters. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, information in this Form 10-Q regarding general domestic and global economic conditions, our future financing plans, our ability to operate as a BDC and the expected performance of, and the yield on, our portfolio companies. In particular, there are forward-looking statements under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” There may be events in the future, however, that we are not able to predict accurately or control. The factors referenced under “Part II Item 1A. Risk Factors,” as well as any cautionary language in this Form 10-Q, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. You should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial position. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this Form 10-Q speaks only as of the date on which we make it. Factors or events that could cause actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements:

 

   

our future operating results;

 

   

changes in political, economic or industry conditions, the interest rate environment or conditions affecting the financial and capital markets, which could result in changes to the value of our assets, or other external factors, including the current COVID-19 pandemic;

 

   

our business prospects and the prospects of our prospective portfolio companies, including our and their ability to achieve our respective objectives as a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic;

 

   

the impact of investments that we expect to make;

 

   

the impact of increased competition;

 

   

our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;

 

   

the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest;

 

   

the ability of our prospective portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

 

   

the relative and absolute performance of our Adviser;

 

   

the ability of our Adviser and its affiliates to attract and retain talented professionals;

 

   

our expected financings and investments;

 

   

our ability to pay dividends or make distributions;

 

   

the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital;

 

   

the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our prospective portfolio companies;

 

   

the impact of future acquisitions and divestitures;

 

   

the timing and manner in which we conduct an initial public offering (“IPO”) and/or listing, if at all;

 

   

the timing and manner in which we conduct any share repurchase offers; and

 

   

our regulatory structure and tax status as a BDC and a regulated investment company (a “RIC”)

Table of Contents

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, some of those assumptions are based on the work of third parties and any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate; as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could prove to be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those referenced in the section entitled “Part II Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law.

COVID-19 Developments

The rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, and associated impacts on the U.S. and global economies, has negatively impacted, and is likely to continue to negatively impact, the business operations of some of our portfolio companies. We cannot at this time fully predict the impact of COVID-19 on our business or the business of our portfolio companies, its duration or magnitude or the extent to which it will negatively impact our portfolio companies’ operating results or our own results of operations or financial condition. We expect that certain of our portfolio companies will continue to experience economic distress for the foreseeable future and may significantly limit business operations if subjected to prolonged economic distress. These developments could result in a decrease in the value of our investments.

The adverse effects of COVID-19 may require us to restructure certain of our investments, which could result in reductions to our investment income or in impairments on our investments. In addition, disruptions in the capital markets have resulted in illiquidity in certain market areas. These market disruptions and illiquidity are likely to have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Unfavorable economic conditions caused by COVID-19 can also be expected to increase our funding costs and limit our access to the capital markets. These events may impact our investment originations.

We will continue to carefully monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and the business of our portfolio companies. Because the full effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are not capable of being known at this time, we cannot estimate the impacts of COVID-19 on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Overview

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 8, 2020. The Company has elected to be treated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act and intends to elect to be treated as a regulated investment company for federal income tax purposes. As such, we are required to comply with various regulatory requirements, such as the requirement to invest at least 70% of our assets in “qualifying assets,” source of income limitations, asset diversification requirements, and the requirement to distribute annually at least 90% of our taxable income and tax-exempt interest.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has called equity capital in the amount of $255 million. See “Subscriptions and Drawdowns” under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for further details. Management anticipates calling additional equity capital for investment purposes through drawdowns in respect of capital commitments made by investors pursuant to Private Offerings.

Investment Objective and Strategy

The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. The Company seeks to invest primarily in senior secured or unsecured loans and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans, mezzanine loans and equity-related securities including warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity, which may or may not be convertible into a portfolio company’s common equity.

Table of Contents

The Company generally expects to invest in middle market companies with earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, or “EBITDA,” between $30 million and $125 million annually, and/or annual revenue of $75 million to $1.5 billion. Typical middle market senior loans may be issued by middle market companies in the context of leveraged buyouts, acquisitions, debt refinancings, recapitalizations, and other similar transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Adviser may determine whether companies qualify as “middle market” in its sole discretion, and the Company may from time to time invest in larger or smaller companies if an attractive opportunity presents itself, especially when there are dislocations in the capital markets, including the high yield and syndicated loan markets. The Company’s target credit investments will typically have maturities between 3 and 6 years and generally range in size between $20 million and $100 million. The investment size will vary with the size of the Company’s capital base. The Company has adopted a non-fundamental policy to invest, under normal market conditions, at least 75% of the value of its total assets (measured at the time of each such investment taking into account certain initial assumptions regarding the expected amount of total assets of the Company once fully invested) in portfolio companies that are in the financial services, business services, software and technology or healthcare services sectors. The remaining 25% of the value of the Company’s total assets (measured at the time of each such investment taking into account certain initial assumptions regarding the expected amount of total assets of the Company once fully invested) may be invested across a wide range of sectors (although the Company expects to avoid businesses which at the time of the Company’s investment participate in certain sectors such as payday lending, pawn shops, automobile title and tax refund anticipation loans, credit repair services, strip mining, drug paraphernalia, marijuana related businesses, tax evasion gaming and pornography).

Market Opportunity and Competitive Advantages

The Adviser believes the Company presents an attractive investment opportunity for several reasons:

Increasing Demand for Debt Capital. Private equity sponsors have unprecedented levels of capital available for investment, which the Adviser believes will continue to drive demand for direct lending over the coming years as private equity firms seek to deploy capital through leveraged buyouts. The Company believes this dynamic, coupled with the Adviser’s strong relationships in the middle market, will provide significant investment opportunities for the Company.

Proactive Sourcing and Relationship-Driven Deal Flow. The Adviser believes that focusing its activities on proactive, outbound, multi-year searches produces higher quality investment opportunities. The Adviser seeks investment opportunities in sectors that it believes are attractive using a focused three-prong origination strategy. In sourcing investments for the Company, the Adviser leverages (i) its dedicated team of origination professionals and Stone Point’s broker-dealer professionals focusing on sponsor communities and financial intermediaries within targeted sectors, (ii) its extensive network of private equity investment professionals, focused on more than 70 financial services-related end markets, and (iii) its longstanding relationships with commercial banks who may provide investment opportunities to the Company.

Disciplined Underwriting Process. The Adviser seeks investment opportunities that it believes are attractive using a rigorous “top down” and “bottom up” process. The Adviser regularly evaluates and selects sectors on which to focus based on an investment thesis (top down approach) and designates a team of investment professionals to identify leading companies and managers in these sectors (bottom up approach). For more than 70 identified sectors of the financial services industry, this process includes:

 

   

Firm-wide discussions to prioritize the identified sectors

 

   

Dedicating small teams of investment professionals to study these sectors

 

   

Interaction with industry experts and attendance at key industry conferences

 

   

Proactive outbound calling efforts and meetings with private equity sponsors and management teams

The Adviser employs a “triangulation” approach in evaluating the quality of a credit, focused on borrower characteristics, loan structure and quality of sponsorship. The Adviser generally seeks to invest in companies that are led by experienced management teams, have market-leading positions and high barriers to entry, and generate predictable free cash flow across market cycles. In structuring a loan, the Adviser is generally focused on determining appropriate leverage levels (with a significant focus on adjustments and free cash flow), ensuring sufficient minimum sponsor equity and seeking to mitigate downside risk through structural protections. Finally, the Adviser seeks to invest in companies with strong financial sponsor ownership, focused on underwriting a sponsor’s ability to support the borrower.

Sector Focus. The Company will make its investments primarily in sectors in which Stone Point has developed a longstanding network and can leverage real-time insights from private portfolio companies to provide a discernible origination and underwriting edge. The Adviser currently expects to focus the Company’s investments in the financial services, business services, software and technology, and healthcare services sectors. As a result of this specialization by the investment team at the Adviser, the Adviser believes that it is well positioned to source proprietary deals and evaluate a broad range of investments with a deep understanding of the market dynamics and cycles for these sectors.

Further, the Adviser believes the Company’s focus on the financial services, business services, software and technology, and healthcare services sectors will provide strong downside protection, given the low default rates in these industries, as well as Stone Point’s investment experience. The Company’s targeted sectors have performed well across market cycles, consistently generating lower cumulative default rates compared with non-financial sectors, which should contribute to enhanced risk adjusted returns.

Ability to Leverage Stone Points Highly Experienced Investment Team. The Adviser intends to utilize Stone Point’s significant resources and expertise throughout the life cycle of each investment to support the Stone Point Credit investment team’s credit activities. On an as-needed basis, certain other investment professionals will contribute a portion of their time, effort and expertise to support credit activities. Stone Point has a long, successful record of making investments and managing businesses in the financial services industry. Stone Point has raised eight private equity funds with an investment track record of over 25 years and a focus on investments in companies in the global financial services industry and related sectors. Stone Point Capital and its affiliates have invested in 26 asset management platforms over 15 years and Stone Point believes that its experience investing in and building businesses across a variety of credit strategies, positions the Company for success in the direct lending middle market. The Stone Point Credit investment team is responsible for making all investment and disposition recommendations to the Investment Committee. The Investment Committee will make all investment and disposition decisions, subject to Board oversight. As of June 30, 2021, the investment team is comprised of approximately 65 investment professionals (a substantial majority of whom are primarily focused in the private equity markets), operating partners and senior advisors who bring to Stone Point considerable experience with Stone Point and/or from other leading private equity, private debt, investment banking, financial services, corporate law, and accounting firms.

Highly Experienced Investment Committee. The Investment Committee for the Adviser is comprised of James D. Carey, Charles A. Davis, Stephen Friedman, David J. Wermuth and Nicolas D. Zerbib. The Investment Committee currently leads the investment activities of the Stone Point funds, has worked together at Stone Point for approximately 20 years investing across multiple credit cycles and different investing environments and, previously, Mr. Davis and Mr. Friedman worked together for more than 20 years at Goldman Sachs.

 

   

Mr. Carey is a Managing Director at Stone Point. Prior to joining Stone Point, he was in the Financial Institutions Investment Banking Group at Merrill Lynch & Co. and prior to that time was an attorney with Kelley Drye & Warren LLP.

 

   

Mr. Davis is the Chief Executive Officer at Stone Point and the Chairman of the Investment Committees of the Trident Funds. He is a former Vice Chairman of Marsh & McLennan and the former head of the Financial Services Industry Group and head of Investment Banking Services worldwide at Goldman Sachs.

 

   

Mr. Friedman is the Chairman at Stone Point and is the former Chairman of Goldman Sachs, where he was instrumental in creating the firm’s principal investment business. He also previously served as Assistant to President George W. Bush for Economic Policy and Director of the National Economic Council.

 

   

Mr. Wermuth is a Managing Director and the General Counsel at Stone Point. Prior to joining Stone Point, he was an attorney specializing in mergers and acquisitions at Cleary, Gottlieb, Steen & Hamilton LLP and prior to that time an auditor for KPMG Peat Marwick.

 

   

Mr. Zerbib is a Managing Director at Stone Point. Prior to joining Stone Point, he was in the Financial Institutions Group at Goldman Sachs.

All investment decisions are reviewed and approved by the Investment Committee, which has principal responsibility for approving new investments and overseeing the management of existing investments. This senior management team is supported by a team of investment professionals, operating partners and senior advisors who bring to Stone Point considerable experience with Stone Point.

Key Components of Operations

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and will vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt available to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.

As a BDC, the Company must invest at least 70% of its assets in “qualifying assets,” which may include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Under the relevant SEC rules, the term “eligible portfolio company” includes all U.S. private operating companies and 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 opportunistically in “non-qualifying” portfolio investments, such as investments in non-U.S. companies.

Revenues

The Company expects to generate revenues primarily through receipt of interest income from its investments. In addition, the Company may generate income from capital gains on the sales of loans and debt and equity related securities and various loan origination and other fees and dividends on direct equity investments.

Expenses

The Company does not currently have any employees and does not expect to have any employees. The Company’s day-to-day investment operations are managed by the Adviser, and services necessary for the Company’s business, including the origination and administration of its investment portfolio, are provided by individuals who are employees of the Adviser and Administrator, pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement. The Company will reimburse the Administrator for its allocable portion of expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including its allocable portion of the cost of certain of the Company’s officers and their respective staff, and the Adviser for certain expenses under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Company bears its allocable portion of the compensation paid by Stone Point to the Company’s Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staff (based on a percentage of time such individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the Company’s business affairs). The Company bears all other costs and expenses of the Company’s operations, administration and transactions, including, but not limited to (i) investment advisory fees, including management fees and incentive fees, to the Adviser, pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement; (ii) the Company’s allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by Administrator in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement, and (iii) all other expenses of its operations and transactions including, without limitation, those relating to:

 

   

the Company’s initial organizational costs incurred prior to the commencement of the Company’s operations;

 

   

operating costs incurred prior to the commencement of the Company’s operations;

 

   

the cost of calculating the Company’s net asset value, including the cost of any third-party valuation services;

direct costs, such as printing, mailing, long distance telephone and staff;

 

   

fees and expenses associated with independent audits and outside legal costs;

 

   

costs associated with the Company’s reporting and compliance obligations U.S. federal and state securities laws, including, the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the 1940 Act; and

 

   

other expenses incurred by the Administrator or the Company in connection with administering the Company’s business, including payments under the Administration Agreement that will be based upon the Company’s allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of the Board) of overhead.

The Adviser can waive any amounts owed to it under the Administration Agreement, at its discretion. From time to time, the Adviser or its affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services. The Company will subsequently reimburse the Adviser for such amounts paid on the Company’s behalf. There is no contractual cap on the amount of reasonable costs and expenses for which the Adviser will be reimbursed.

The Company has entered into a credit facility to partially fund the Company’s operations, and may incur costs and expenses including commitment, origination, legal and/or structuring fees and the related interest costs associated with any amounts borrowed. See “Revolving Credit Facility” under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for further details.

The Company has had little operating history and therefore this statement concerning additional expenses is necessarily an estimate and may not match the Company’s actual results of operations in the future.

Leverage

The amount of leverage that the Company employs will depend on the Adviser’s and the Board’s assessment of market and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing. In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limitations, BDCs are allowed to borrow amounts such that their asset coverage ratios, as defined in the 1940 Act, are at least 200% (or 150% if certain conditions are met) after such borrowing. As a result of complying with the requirements set forth in the Small Business Credit Availability Act, the Company is able to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage ratio is at least 150%, rather than 200%. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s asset coverage ratio was 245% and 243%, respectively.

In any period, our interest expense will depend largely on the extent of our borrowing and we expect interest expense will increase as we increase our leverage over time within the limits of the 1940 Act. In addition, we may dedicate assets or capital commitments as collateral to financing facilities.

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 management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’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.

The Adviser believes that actively managing an investment allows it to identify problems early and work with companies to develop constructive solutions when necessary. The Adviser will monitor our portfolio with a focus toward anticipating negative credit events. In seeking to maintain portfolio company performance and help to ensure a successful exit, the Adviser will work closely with, as applicable, the lead equity sponsor, portfolio company management, consultants, advisers and other security holders to discuss financial position, compliance with covenants, financial requirements and execution of the company’s business plan. In addition, the Adviser’s personnel may occupy a seat or serve as an observer on a portfolio company’s board of directors or similar governing body.

Under the Administration Agreement, we will reimburse the Administrator for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred for services performed for us. In addition, the Administrator is permitted to delegate its duties under the Administration Agreement to affiliates or third parties, and we will reimburse the expenses of these parties incurred directly and/or paid by the Administrator on the Company’s behalf. The Adviser can waive any amounts owed to it under the Administration Agreement, at its discretion.

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 the sum of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code (without regard to the deduction for dividends paid), 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 stockholders, which generally relieve us from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes.

Net Unrealized Appreciation on Investments

We determine the fair value our portfolio investments quarterly and any changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, net unrealized appreciation on our investment portfolio was comprised of the following:

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company intends to generate further cash from (1) future offerings of the Company’s common or preferred stock, (2) cash flows from operations and (3) borrowings from banks or other lenders. The Company will seek to enter into bank debt, credit facility or other financing arrangements on at least customary market terms; however, the Company cannot assure you it will be able to do so.

The Company’s primary use of cash will be for (1) investments in portfolio companies and other investments to comply with certain portfolio diversification requirements, (2) the cost of operations (including paying the Adviser), (3) debt service of any borrowings and (4) cash distributions to the holders of the Company’s stock.

Equity

The sales of Common Stock were made pursuant to subscription agreements entered into by the Company and its investors. Under the terms of the subscription agreements, investors are required to fund drawdowns to purchase shares of Common Stock up to the amount of their respective capital commitments on an as-needed basis with a minimum of ten business days’ prior notice to the funding date.

Each of the sales of Common Stock is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Regulation D thereunder. The Company has not engaged in general solicitation or advertising with regard to the issuance and sale of the Common Stock and has not offered securities to the public in connection with such issuance and sale. The Company relied, in part, upon representations from the investors in the subscription agreements that each investor was an accredited investor as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act.

We believe that we maintain sufficient liquidity in the form of cash, financing capacity and undrawn capital commitments from our investors to cover any outstanding unfunded portfolio company commitments we may be required to fund.

Investor Commitments

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has received capital commitments totaling $1,072.5 million, of which, $817.5 million remains available.

Hedging

In connection with certain portfolio investments, the Company may employ hedging techniques designed to reduce the risk of adverse movements in interest rates, securities prices and currency exchange rates. While such transactions may reduce certain risks, such transactions themselves may entail certain other risks. Thus, while the Company may benefit from the use of these hedging mechanisms, unanticipated changes in interest rates, securities prices, currency exchange rates and other factors may result in a poorer overall performance for the Company than if it had not entered into such hedging transactions. The successful utilization of hedging and risk management transactions requires skills that are separate from the skills used in selecting and monitoring investments. There were no hedging transactions through the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies

This discussion of the Company’s operating plan is based upon the Company’s financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. In addition to the discussion below, the Company describes its critical accounting policies in the notes to the Company’s financial statements.

Valuation of Investments

The Company will measure the value of the Company’s investments in accordance with fair value accounting guidance promulgated under GAAP, which establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which ranks the observability inputs used in measuring financial instruments at fair value. See the Notes to Financial Statements for a description of the hierarchy for fair value measurements and a description of the Company’s valuation procedures.

Net Realized Gains or Losses and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. The Company will measure net realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees and prepayment penalties. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation will reflect the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation and depreciation, when gains or losses are realized.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that the Company expects to collect such amounts. The Company does not accrue as a receivable interest on loans and debt securities for accounting purposes if the Company has reason to doubt the Company’s ability to collect such interest. OIDs, market discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method as interest income. The Company records prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, unused, syndication and prepayment fees associated with the Company’s investment activities as well as any fees for managerial assistance services rendered by the Company to the portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered. The Company may receive fees for guaranteeing the outstanding debt of a portfolio company. Such fees are amortized into other income over the life of the guarantee.

Offering and Organizational Expenses

The Company has and will continue to bear expenses relating to the organization of the Company and this Private Offering and any subsequent offering of Common Stock, including an Exchange Listing. Organizational expenses include, without limitation, the cost of incorporation, including legal fees related to the creation and organization of the Company, its related documents of organization and its election to be regulated as a BDC. Offering expenses include, without limitation, legal, accounting, printing and other offering costs including those associated with the preparation of a registration statement in connection with any subsequent offering of Common Stock. The Adviser has agreed to bear the aggregate organizational and offering costs in connection with the Private Offering in excess of $1,250,000. 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 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 beginning with the latter of either the commencement of operations or from incurrence. These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs incurred with Company’s share offerings, the preparation of the Company’s registration statement, and registration fees.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As a RIC, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains distributed to shareholders. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must maintain an election under the 1940 Act to be regulated as a BDC, meet specified source-of-income and asset diversification requirements as well as distribute each taxable year dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally of an amount at least equal to 90% of the Company’s “investment company taxable income,” which is generally the Company’s net ordinary income plus the excess of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses and determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid. See “Note 11. Taxes.”

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. The Company plans to invest primarily in illiquid debt securities of private companies. Most of the Company’s investments will not have a readily available market price, and the Company will value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board in accordance with the Company’s valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. 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 the Company makes.

 

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2021 (the end of the period covered by this report), our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the 1934 Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures.

(b) Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021 based upon the criteria in the 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on management’s assessment, management determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2021.

Due to the Company’s status as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, the Company was not required to obtain an attestation report from the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the most recent fiscal quarter, there was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined under Rule 13a-af(f) under the Exchange Act, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
