Stellus Capital Investment Corporation Reports Results for its Third Fiscal Quarter Ended September 30, 2020

Rhea-AI Summary

Stellus Capital Investment Corporation (NYSE: SCM) reported its Q3 2020 results, revealing a net investment income of $5.33 million or $0.27 per share, surpassing the $0.25 distribution. The company announced total distributions of $0.56 per share, including a special $0.06 distribution, to fulfill spillover income obligations. Notably, net asset value decreased to $13.17 per share, primarily due to required distributions. The firm extended its $230 million bank facility until 2025, reflecting strong liquidity despite a decline in net unrealized appreciation of investments.

Positive

• Net investment income of $5.33 million, or $0.27 per share, exceeded distributions.
• Extended commitment termination date of $230 million bank facility to September 2025.

Negative

• Net asset value decreased to $13.17 per share, down from $14.14.
• Required distributions reduced net asset value; it would have increased to $13.48 without spillover obligations.

HOUSTON, Oct. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Stellus Capital Investment Corporation (NYSE: SCM) ("Stellus" or "the Company") today announced financial results for its third fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020.

"I am pleased to report that our asset quality remains stable and that our third quarter net investment income of $0.27 per share exceeded the regular third quarter distribution of $0.25 per share.  In addition, during the quarter, we extended the commitment termination date of our $230 million bank facility to September 18, 2024 with a final maturity of September 18, 2025, and amended certain covenants and conditions of the facility, including a reduction in the required asset coverage," reported Robert T. Ladd, Chief Executive Officer of Stellus Capital Investment Corporation.

Mr. Ladd further stated, "With regard to distributions, we declared distributions in an aggregate of $0.56 per share during the quarter in order to complete the distribution of spillover income from 2019 in a timely manner, consistent with maintaining our qualification for taxation as a Regulated Investment Company and to eliminate our liability for corporate-level U.S. federal income tax.  The $0.56 is comprised of $0.25 per share for each of the third and fourth quarters and a special distribution of $0.06 per share.  As a result, our net asset value declined to $13.17 during the quarter.  Had we not been required to distribute the spillover income from prior years, net asset value would have increased to $13.48 per share.  Further, these distributions, including the $0.31 payable December 29th, to shareholders of record on December 15th, constitute all remaining distributions for the year, so our fourth quarter net asset value will not be further reduced by distributions paid in the fourth quarter."

(1)

Core net investment income, as presented, excludes the impact of capital gains incentive fees and income taxes, the majority of which are excise taxes.  The Company believes that presenting core net investment income and the related per share amount is a useful supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial performance.  However, core 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.  A reconciliation of net investment income in accordance with U.S GAAP to core net investment income is presented in the table below the financial statements.

(2)

Total realized income is the sum of net investment income and net realized gains on investments; both U.S GAAP measures.

(1)	The dollar-weighted average annualized effective yield is computed using the effective interest rate for our debt investments and other income producing investments, including cash and PIK interest, as well as the accretion of deferred fees.  The individual investment yields are then weighted by the respective cost of the investments (as of the date presented) in calculating the weighted average effective yield of the portfolio.  The dollar-weighted average annualized yield on the Company's investments for a given period will generally be higher than what our stockholders would realize in return over the same period because the dollar-weighted average annualized yield does not reflect the Company's expenses or any sales load that may be paid by investors.
(2)	The dollar weighted average yield on total investments takes the same yields as calculated in the footnote above, but weights them to determine the weighted average effective yield as a percentage of the Company's total investments, including non-income producing loans and equity.
