Highlight of Business Operations:

At September 30, 2011, the weighted average yield on targeted portfolio investments, exclusive of capital gains, was 11.3%, compared to 8.2% at September 30, 2010. The weighted average yield of all investments was 11.3% at September 30, 2011, compared to 6.1% at September 30, 2010, including interest earned on U.S. Treasury Bills. This improvement in yield is primarily attributable to the reduction in non-accruing investments from a cost of $62.6 million at September 30, 2010 to $24.8 million at September 30, 2011, and a generally more favorable mix of investments in our portfolio. We compute yields on investments using interest rates as of the balance sheet date and include amortization of loan discount points, OID, and market premium or discount, royalty interest income, net profits income and other similar investment income, weighted by their respective costs when averaged. These yields do not include income from any investments on non-accrual status. Such weighted average yields are not necessarily indicative of expected total returns on a portfolio.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized net realized capital losses of $30.4 million, resulting primarily from realized losses on the sale of our investments in Alden and Gatliff, $3.7 million; DeanLake, $13.9 million; TierraMar, $15.2 million; and PXD, $1.1 million; partially offset by realized gains from the sales of the overriding royalty interest associated with Green Leaf, $1.0 million; and the after pay-out overriding royalty interest and 50% of our warrants of Tammany of $2.0 million. We did not have any net realized capital gains or losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

The Strategy of Ben Graham – Warren Buffett’s Mentor

From 1923 to 1957 Warren Buffett’s mentor, Ben Graham, followed a strategy of investing in net-nets. He said: “It always seemed, and still seems ridiculously simple to say that if one can acquire a diversified group of common stocks at a price less than the...net current assets alone…the results should be quite satisfactory. They were so in our experience, for more than 30 years.”
Today net-nets are rare. They are collected under GuruFocus’ Net-Net Screener. GuruFocus also publishes a monthly newsletter which recommends the safest net-nets. All of these are included in GuruFocus Premium Membership.
