| (1) | The weighted average annualized effective yield on debt and other income-producing investments is computed using the effective interest rates 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 fair values of the investments (as of the date presented) in calculating the weighted average effective yield as a percentage of our debt and other income-producing investments. CRS Reprocessing, LLC, Peekay Acquisition, LLC and the IAG Revenue Linked Security were excluded from the calculation as of June 30, 2017 because they were on non-accrual status on that date. CRS Reprocessing, LLC and Peekay Acquisition, LLC were excluded from the calculation as of December 31, 2016 because they were on non-accrual status on that date. Shinnecock CLO 2006-1, Ltd. and other equity components of the investment portfolio were also excluded from these calculations either because they do not have stated interest rates or are non-income producing. | ||
| The weighted average annualized yield on total investments takes the same yields but weights them to determine the weighted average effective yield as a percentage of the Company's total investments. The weighted average annualized yield on the Company’s investments for a given period will generally be higher than what investors in our common stock would realize in a 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. | |||
SECOND QUARTER AND YEAR TO DATE 2017 OPERATING RESULTS
For the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the Company reported a $2.9 million decrease in net income, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The net loss was $(1.9) million, or $(0.29) per share, compared to net income of $1.0 million, or $0.16 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the Company reported a $0.4 million increase in net investment income and core net investment income, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Net investment income and core net investment income were $2.5 million, or $0.39 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.33 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016.
The decrease in net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to a $3.5 million negative change in net unrealized depreciation, partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in net investment income and a $0.2 million increase in net realized gains, for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Net investment income and core net investment income increased in the quarter ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2016, primarily as a result of lower incentive fee expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The incentive fee was reduced due to the portfolio depreciation experienced during the quarter and its triggering of the total return provision in our investment advisory and management agreement.
The increase in portfolio depreciation was primarily a result of $(4.1) million of net unrealized depreciation on our investment in CRS Reprocessing, LLC ("CRS") during the quarter ended June 30, 2017. CRS has been on non-accrual status since the third quarter of 2016. In the fourth quarter of 2016, we agreed to extend the maturity date of our investment from March 30, 2017 to September 30, 2017. The debt at CRS senior to the our investment, however, matured on June 30, 2017 without repayment, and the company has thus far been unable to reach satisfactory extension terms. Our loan remains on non-accrual at June 30, 2017 and the fair value has been reduced to $0.
As of June 30, 2017, our total portfolio investments at fair value and total assets were $137.2 million and $148.3 million, respectively, compared to $134.1 million and $143.0 million at December 31, 2016. Net asset value per share was $13.25 at June 30, 2017, compared to $13.86 at December 31, 2016.
During the second quarter of 2017, the Company made investments in five companies totaling $17.0 million. Four of the investments were in new portfolio companies and one was an additional investment in an existing portfolio company. The Company also had investment sales, payoffs and commitment expirations totaling $6.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017. The investment activity for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 was as follows:
NEW AND INCREMENTAL INVESTMENTS

On April 28, 2017, the Company made a $3.0 million senior secured debt investment and $0.3 million revolver investment in King Engineering Associates, Inc. The investments carry an interest rate of LIBOR plus 10.00%. The revolver was unfunded at close.

On May 25, 2017, the Company received a par payoff on its $6.2 million senior secured debt investment in WBL SPE II, LLC ("WBL II"). The Company generated a gross internal rate of return (“IRR”) of 19.3% on this exit. IRR is the rate of return that makes the net present value of all cash flows into or from the investment equal to zero, and is calculated based on the amount of each cash flow received or invested by the Company and the day it was received or invested.
On June 6, 2017, the Company sold $0.1 million (cost basis) of its equity investment in Mercury Network, LLC for $0.4 million.
"We are pleased to report another quarter in which Harvest Capital Credit out-earned its dividend of $0.34 per share by generating $0.39 per share of net investment income and core net investment income for the second quarter of 2017,” declared Richard P. Buckanavage, President and CEO. “It was another busy quarter in terms of both deployment and repayments but we did achieve net portfolio growth in terms of capital invested and the number of portfolio companies increased to 37 from 34 at previous quarter end,” observed Mr. Buckanavage. “Our dividend coverage ratio of approximately 115% for the second quarter following a 103% coverage ratio in the first quarter, along with $0.44 per share of spillover income carried over from 2016, enabled the board of directors to declare a special dividend of $0.10 per share and allow us to continue to maintain approximately a full quarter’s worth of dividend coverage from spillover income,” concluded Mr. Buckanavage.
CREDIT QUALITY
The Company employs various risk management and monitoring tools to categorize and assess its investments. No less frequently than quarterly, the Company applies an investment risk rating system which uses a five-level numeric scale. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:
- Investment Rating 1 is used for investments that are performing above expectations, and whose risks remain favorable compared to the expected risk at the time of the original investment.
- Investment Rating 2 is used for investments that are performing within expectations and whose risks remain neutral compared to the expected risk at the time of the original investment. All new loans are initially rated 2.
- Investment Rating 3 is used for investments that are performing below expectations and that require closer monitoring, but where no loss of return or principal is expected. Portfolio companies with a rating of 3 may be out of compliance with financial covenants.
- Investment Rating 4 is used for investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment. These investments are often in workout. Investments with a rating of 4 are those for which there is an increased possibility of some loss of return but no loss of principal is expected.
- Investment Rating 5 is used for investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment. These investments are almost always in workout. Investments with a rating of 5 are those for which some loss of return and principal is expected.
As of June 30, 2017, the weighted average risk rating of the debt investments in the Company's portfolio increased to 2.05 from 2.03 in the previous quarter. Also, as of June 30, 2017, eight of the Company’s thirty-three debt investments were rated 1, nineteen investments were rated 2, two investments were rated 3, two investments were rated 4, and two investments were rated 5. As of June 30, 2017, two loans and a revenue linked security were on non-accrual status.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $9.7 million of cash and restricted cash and $20.4 million of undrawn capacity on its $55.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility. The credit facility is secured by all of the Company’s assets and has an accordion feature that allows the size of the facility to increase up to $85.0 million.
Additionally, the Company holds six syndicated loans totaling $21.6 million at fair value as of June 30, 2017. These investments could be sold and the proceeds re-invested in our core lower-middle market strategy, as attractive opportunities arise.

The purpose of core net investment income is to present net investment income without the effect of incentive fees related to items not included in net investment income, and without the effect of any excise taxes related to realized capital gains and losses. Incentive fees are reflected above the net investment income line on the income statement and thus affect net investment income for GAAP purposes. However, realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation are reflected below the net investment income line item on the income statement. Accordingly, capital gains incentive fees are reflected above the net investment income line item in the income statement even though the related realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation are reflected below the net investment income line item on the income statement. Any excise taxes related to realized capital gains and losses are also reflected above the net investment income line item in the income statement even though the related realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation are reflected below the net investment income line item on the income statement. Core net investment income adds the capital gains incentive fee and any excise taxes related to realized capital gains and losses back to net investment income so the capital gains incentive fee, any excise taxes related to realized capital gains and losses and the related realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation are all excluded from net investment income.
The capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to cumulative realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such cumulative realized capital gains exceed cumulative realized and unrealized capital losses through the end of such fiscal year (less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fee). The Company also records an expense accrual relating to the capital gains incentive fee payable by the Company to its investment adviser when (i) the cumulative unrealized and realized gains on its investments exceed all cumulative realized and unrealized capital losses on its investments and (ii) the capital gains incentive fee that would be payable exceeds the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fee given the fact that a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to the investment adviser if the Company were to liquidate its investment portfolio at such time. Any decrease in unrealized appreciation in subsequent periods will result in the reversal of some or all of such previously recorded expense accrual. The actual incentive fee payable to the Company's investment adviser related to capital gains is determined and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year and is only based on cumulative realized capital gains, including realized capital gains for such period, but not unrealized capital gains.
