Fourth Fiscal Quarter 2022 Highlights:

  • Portfolio Activity: Invested $59.6 million in four new portfolio companies and $26.4 million in existing portfolio companies lifting net originations to $64.2 million after repayments and net proceeds.
  • Net Investment Income: Increased to $7.5 million, or $0.22 per common share, driven by higher core interest income.
  • Equity Issuance: Issued 430,425 shares of common stock at a weighted-average price of $10.53 per share, through our at-the-market trading program, generating net proceeds of $4.5 million.
  • Credit Facility: Increased the commitment amount by $50.0 million, from $175.0 million to $225.0 million.

Fourth Fiscal Quarter 2022 Results:

Total investment income during the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and June 30, 2022 was $15.9 million and $13.8 million, respectively. The quarter over quarter increase was primarily due to increases in both the weighted average yield and the weighted average principal balance of our interest-bearing investments. The weighted average yield on our interest-bearing investments increased to 11.2% during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 10.0% during the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The weighted average principal balance of our interest-bearing investment portfolio increased to $553.3 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $506.1 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Total expenses increased by 23.8% quarter over quarter, primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in net incentive fees driven by higher net investment income and a $0.6 million increase in interest expense, quarter over quarter.

Net investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 was $7.5 million, or $0.22 per share, an increase of 7.6%, as compared to the prior quarter.

The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $5.1 million, or $0.15 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to the net decrease of $5.6 million, or $0.16 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The current quarter increase was driven by net investment income, partially offset by $2.3 million in net unrealized depreciation.

Fiscal Year Ended 2022 Results:

Total investment income during the years ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $63.2 million and $53.8 million, respectively. The year over year increase was primarily due to a $4.0 million increase in interest income, driven by an increase in the average principal balance of our interest-bearing investment portfolio of $54.2 million, or 11.7%, year over year, partially offset by a slight decrease in the weighted average yield from 10.6% during the year ended September 30, 2021 to 10.4% during the year ended September 30, 2022.

Expenses, net of any non-contractual, unconditional and irrevocable credits to fees from the Adviser, increased $3.2 million, or 11.6%, for the year ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the prior year. This increase was primarily due to a $1.8 million increase in the net incentive fee and a $1.5 million increase in interest expense on borrowings.

Net investment income for the year ended September 30, 2022 was $32.3 million, an increase of 23.6%, as compared to the prior year, or $0.94 per share.

The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $19.9 million, or $0.58 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2022, compared to $84.3 million, or $2.54 per share, for the year ended September 30, 2021. The current year increase was driven by net investment income and $5.2 million in net realized gains, partially offset by $17.5 million in net unrealized depreciation.

Comments from Gladstone Capital's President, Bob Marcotte: "Strong net originations, rising interest rates and the company's favorable capital structure lifted our net interest income last quarter by 25%. These results capped a strong fiscal 2022 for GLAD where we achieved 17% asset growth while maintaining our strategy of making modestly leveraged senior secured debt investments to growth oriented lower middle market businesses. We expect the current interest rates as well as more favorable spreads and conservative leverage metrics of the current lending market to sustain this earnings momentum and support potential increases to the common distribution rate in the coming quarters.
