OFS Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: OFS) (“OFS Capital,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023.

SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

• Net investment income of $0.38 per common share for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, an increase from $0.37 per common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
• Net loss on investments of $0.53 per common share; no new non-accrual loans during the quarter.
• Net asset value (“NAV”) per common share of $12.94, as of June 30, 2023.
• As of June 30, 2023, based on fair value, 95% of our loan portfolio consisted of floating rate loans and approximately 99% of our loan portfolio consisted of senior secured loans.
• For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the investment portfolio’s weighted-average performing income yield increased to 13.8% from 13.0% during the prior quarter.
• On June 30, 2023, we paid a quarterly distribution of $0.33 per common share, and, on August 1, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a distribution of $0.34 per common share for the third quarter of 2023, a 3.0% increase compared to the prior quarter distribution, payable on September 29, 2023 to stockholders of record as of September 22, 2023.

“We are pleased to announce a distribution increase for the third quarter of 2023,” said Bilal Rashid, OFS Capital’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Today we reported another increase in our quarterly net investment income, which rose to $0.38 per common share, and was the third consecutive increase in our quarterly net investment income. We believe our balance sheet is well positioned in the current interest rate environment with the vast majority of our loan portfolio being floating rate and the majority of our debt being fixed-rate. At the end of the second quarter, approximately 86% of our outstanding debt matures in 2026 or later, and more than half of our outstanding debt is unsecured.”

The weighted-average yield of our investments is not the same as a return on investment for our stockholders, but rather relates to our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of our fees and expenses.

As of June 30, 2023, based on fair value, our investment portfolio was comprised of the following:

• Total investments of $494.6 million, which was equal to approximately 106% of amortized cost;
• Debt investments of $313.0 million in 44 portfolio companies;
• Equity investments of $99.6 million in 16 portfolio companies;
• Structured finance securities of $81.9 million in 23 investments; and
• Unfunded commitments of $15.8 million to 10 portfolio companies.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, no new loans were placed on non-accrual status.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Investment Income

For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, total investment income increased to $14.5 million from $14.3 million in the prior quarter, primarily due to an increase in total interest income of $0.7 million. The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase in our portfolio’s weighted-average performing income yield to 13.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 from 13.0% in the prior quarter.

Expenses

For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, total expenses increased by $0.1 million to $9.4 million compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to an increase in interest expense stemming from increasing interest rates on our variable rate revolving credit facility with BNP Paribas.

Net Gain (Loss) on Investments

For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we recognized a net loss on investments of $7.1 million, primarily due to unrealized depreciation of $4.3 million and $2.7 million on our structured finance securities and equity securities, respectively. For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, our loan portfolio experienced net gains of $1.0 million.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we wrote-off a non-accrual loan and equity investment resulting in a loss of $0.4 million, net of the reversal of previously recognized unrealized depreciation, and a gross realized loss of $10.5 million on our invested capital.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2023, we had $6.8 million in cash, which includes $1.4 million held by our wholly owned small business investment company, OFS SBIC I, LP (“SBIC I LP”), and $3.5 million held by OFSCC-FS, LLC (“OFSCC-FS”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary. Our use of cash held by SBIC I LP and OFSCC-FS is restricted by regulatory and/or contractual conditions, including limitations on the amount of cash SBIC I LP and OFSCC-FS can distribute to us.

As of June 30, 2023, we had an unused commitment of $24.5 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility with Pacific Western Bank, as well as an unused commitment of $48.9 million under our revolving credit facility with BNP Paribas, both of which are subject to borrowing base requirements and other covenants.
