(1) Distributable net investment income is net investment income as determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or U.S. GAAP, excluding the impact of share-based compensation expense which is non-cash in nature. Main Street believes presenting distributable net investment income and the related per share amount is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial performance since share-based compensation does not require settlement in cash. However, distributable net investment income is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for net investment income and other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, distributable net investment income should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing Main Street's financial performance. A reconciliation of net investment income in accordance with U.S. GAAP to distributable net investment income is detailed in the financial tables included with this press release. |
(2) Return on equity equals the net increase in net assets resulting from operations divided by the average quarterly total net assets for the three months and TTM periods ended March 31, 2022. |
(3) Portfolio company financial information has not been independently verified by Main Street. |
(4) These credit statistics exclude certain portfolio companies for which EBITDA is not a meaningful metric for the statistic. |
