TCP Capital Corp. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation formed on April 2, 2012 as an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Company elected to be treated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company’s investment objective is to achieve high total returns through current income and capital appreciation, with an emphasis on principal protection. The Company invests primarily in the debt of middle-market companies, including senior secured loans, junior loans, mezzanine debt and bonds. Such investments may include an equity component, and, to a lesser extent, the Company may make equity investments directly. Investment operations are conducted in Special Value Continuation Partners, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), of which the Company owns 100% of the common limited partner interests, or in TCPC Funding I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“TCPC Funding”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership. The Partnership has also elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Partnership and TCPC Funding. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

The Company was formed through the conversion on April 2, 2012 of the Company’s predecessor, Special Value Continuation Fund, LLC (“SVCF”), from a limited liability company to a corporation in a non-taxable transaction, leaving the Company as the surviving entity (the “Conversion”). At the time of the Conversion, all limited liability company interests were exchanged for 15,725,635 shares of common stock in the Company. As a result of the Conversion, the books and records of SVCF have become the books and records of the surviving entity. On April 3, 2012, the Company completed its initial public offering. For periods prior to April 2, 2012, the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes reflect the performance of SVCF. Per share amounts prior to the conversion are not considered useful and have been marked as “N/A” in the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, the Company will not be taxed on its income to the extent that it distributes such income each year and satisfies other applicable income tax requirements. The Partnership and TCPC Funding have elected to be treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The General Partner of the Partnership is SVOF/MM, LLC, which also serves as the administrator of the Company and the Partnership (the “Administrator”). The managing member of the Administrator is Tennenbaum Capital Partners, LLC (the “Advisor”), which serves as the Investment Manager to the Company, the Partnership, and TCPC Funding. Most of the equity interests in the General Partner are owned directly or indirectly by the Advisor and its employees.

  

Company management consists of the Investment Manager and the Board of Directors. Partnership management consists of the General Partner and the Board of Directors. The Investment Manager and the General Partner direct and execute the day-to-day operations of the Company and the Partnership, respectively, subject to oversight from the respective Board of Directors, which sets the broad policies of the Company and performs certain functions required by the 1940 Act in the case of the Partnership.

1. Organization and Nature of Operations (continued)

 

The Board of Directors of the Partnership has delegated investment management of the Partnership’s assets to the Investment Manager. At September 30, 2013, each Board of Directors consists of five persons, three of whom are independent. If the Company or the Partnership has preferred equity interests outstanding, as the Partnership currently does, the holders of the preferred interests voting separately as a class are entitled to elect two of the Directors. The remaining directors will be subject to election by holders of the common shares and preferred interests voting together as a single class.

 

Preferred Equity

 

At September 30, 2013, the Partnership had 6,700 Series A preferred limited partner interests (the “Preferred Interests”) issued and outstanding with a liquidation preference of $20,000 per preferred limited interest. The Preferred Interests are redeemable at the option of the Partnership, subject to certain conditions. Additionally, under certain conditions, the Partnership may be required to either redeem certain of the Preferred Interests or repay indebtedness, at the Partnership’s option. Such conditions would include a failure by the Partnership to maintain adequate collateral as required by its credit facility agreement or by the Statement of Preferences of the Preferred Interests or a failure by the Partnership to maintain sufficient asset coverage as required by the 1940 Act. As of September 30, 2013, the Partnership was in full compliance with such requirements.

 

The Preferred Interests accrue dividends at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 0.85% or, in the case of any holders of Preferred Interests that are CP Conduits (as defined in the leveraging documents), the higher of (i) LIBOR plus 0.85% or (ii) the CP Conduit’s cost of funds rate plus 0.85%, subject to certain limitations and adjustments.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Company and the Partnership.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investment Valuation

 

The Company’s investments are generally held by the Partnership or TCPC Funding. Management values investments at fair value based upon the principles and methods of valuation set forth in policies adopted by the Partnership’s Board of Directors and in conformity with procedures set forth in the Senior Facilities, as defined in Note 4, below, and the Statement of Preferences for the Preferred Interests. Fair value is generally defined as the amount for which an investment would be sold in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

September 30, 2013

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

All investments are valued at least quarterly based on affirmative pricing or quotations from independent third-party sources, with the exception of investments priced directly by the Investment Manager which together comprise, in total, less than 5% of the capitalization of the Partnership. Investments listed on a recognized exchange or market quotation system, whether U.S. or foreign, are valued for financial reporting purposes as of the last business day of the reporting period using the closing price on the date of valuation. Liquid investments not listed on a recognized exchange or market quotation system are valued using prices provided by a nationally recognized pricing service or by using quotations from broker-dealers. Investments not priced by a pricing service or for which market quotations are either not readily available or are determined to be unreliable are valued using affirmative valuations performed by independent valuation services or, for investments aggregating less than 5% of the total capitalization of the Partnership, directly by the Investment Manager.

 

Fair valuations of investments are determined under guidelines adopted by the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Partnership, and are subject to their approval. Generally, to increase objectivity in valuing the investments, the Investment Manager will utilize external measures of value, such as public markets or third-party transactions, whenever possible. The Investment Manager’s valuation is not based on long-term work-out value, immediate liquidation value, nor incremental value for potential changes that may take place in the future. The values assigned to investments that are valued by the Investment Manager are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized, as these amounts depend on future circumstances and cannot reasonably be determined until the individual investments are actually liquidated. The foregoing policies apply to all investments, including those in companies and groups of affiliated companies aggregating more than 5% of the Company’s assets.

 

Fair valuations of investments in each asset class are determined using one or more methodologies including the market approach, income approach, or, in the case of recent investments, the cost approach, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that may be taken into account include, as relevant:  available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, our principal market and enterprise values, among other factors.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of Level 3 investments as of September 30, 2013 included the following:

 

Asset Type  Fair Value   Valuation Technique  Unobservable Input  Range (Weighted Avg.)
Bank Debt  $448,827,207   Market rate approach  Market yields  5.1% - 17.6% (10.5%)
        Market quotations  Indicative bid/ask quotes  1 - 4 (2)
        Market comparable companies  Revenue multiples  0.4x (0.4x)
        Market comparable companies  EBITDA multiples  6.5x (6.5x)
Other Corporate Debt  $45,803,291   Market rate approach  Market yields  14.2% (14.2%)
        Market quotations  Indicative bid/ask quotes  1 – 11 (4)
        Market comparable companies  EBITDA multiples  6.5x - 10.0x (8.1x)
Equity  $37,639,774   Market rate approach  Market yields  13.0% - 18.0% (13.6%)
        Market quotations  Indicative bid/ask quotes  1 - 2 (1)
        Market comparable companies  Revenue multiples  0.4x - 1.1x (1.1x)
        Market comparable companies  EBITDA multiples  3.4x – 8.0x (5.5x)

 

Generally, a change in an unobservable input may result in a change to the value of an investment as follows:

 

Input   Impact to Value if
Input Increases
  Impact to Value if
Input Decreases
Market yields   Decrease   Increase
Revenue multiples   Increase   Decrease
EBITDA multiples   Increase   Decrease

 

Investments may be categorized based on the types of inputs used in valuing such investments. The level in the GAAP valuation hierarchy in which an investment falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation of the investment in its entirety. Transfers between levels are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.

  

At September 30, 2013, the Company’s investments were categorized as follows:

 

Level  Basis for Determining Fair Value  Bank Debt   Other
Corporate Debt
   Equity
Securities
 
1  Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets  $-   $-   $1,028,216

There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Investment Transactions

 

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date, except for private transactions that have conditions to closing, which are recorded on the closing date. The cost of investments purchased is based upon the purchase price plus those professional fees which are specifically identifiable to the investment transaction. Realized gains and losses on investments are recorded based on the identification method, which typically allocates the highest cost inventory to the basis of investments sold.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash consists of amounts held in accounts with brokerage firms and the custodian bank. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Repurchase Agreements

 

In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Company’s policy that the custodian take possession of the underlying collateral, the fair value of which is required to exceed the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest, at all times. If the seller defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral may be delayed or limited.

 

Restricted Investments

 

The Company may invest without limitation in instruments that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These instruments generally may be resold to institutional investors in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these investments may involve time-consuming negotiations and additional expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted investments is included at the end of the Consolidated Statement of Investments. Restricted investments, including any restricted investments in affiliates, are valued in accordance with the investment valuation policies discussed above.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

   

Foreign Investments

 

The Company may invest in instruments traded in foreign countries and denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign currency denominated investments comprised approximately 1.3% and 1.6% of total investments at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Such positions were converted at the respective closing rate in effect at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and reported in U.S. dollars. Purchases and sales of investments and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies, when they occur, are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions. The portion of gains and losses on foreign investments resulting from fluctuations in foreign currencies is included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. 

 

Investments in foreign companies and securities of foreign governments may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and securities of the U.S. government. These risks include, among other things, revaluation of currencies, less reliable information about issuers, different transactions clearance and settlement practices, and potential future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, investments in foreign companies and securities of foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. government.

 

Derivatives

 

In order to mitigate certain currency exchange and interest rate risks, the Partnership has entered into certain swap and option transactions. All derivatives are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The transactions entered into are accounted for using the mark-to-market method with the resulting change in fair value recognized in earnings for the current period. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in interest rates and the value of foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, TCPC Funding purchased an interest rate cap with a notional amount of $25,000,000. At September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, the Partnership held a cross currency basis swap with a notional amount of $6,040,944. Gains and losses from derivatives during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were included in net realized and unrealized loss on investments in the Statement of Operations as follows:

Gains and losses from derivatives during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were included in net realized and unrealized loss on investments in the Statement of Operations as follows:

 

Instrument  Realized Gains (Losses)   Unrealized Gains (Losses) 
Cross currency basis swaps  $-   $145,906 

 

Valuations of derivatives held at September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 were determined using observable market inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and, accordingly, are classified as Level 2 in the GAAP valuation hierarchy.

 

Debt Issuance Costs

 

Costs of approximately $3.5 million were incurred during 2006 in connection with placing the Partnership’s revolving credit facility. Additional costs of approximately $1.5 million were incurred during 2013 in connection with the extension of the facility (see Note 4). These costs were deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining life of the facility. The impact of utilizing the straight-line amortization method versus the effective-interest method is not material to the operations of the Company or the Partnership.

 

Costs of approximately $1.6 million were incurred during 2013 in connection with placing TCPC Funding’s revolving credit facility (see Note 4). These costs were deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over three years, the estimated life of that facility. The impact of utilizing the straight-line amortization method versus the effective-interest method is not material to the operations of the Company, the Partnership or TCPC Funding.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Interest and dividend income, including income paid in kind, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees earned with respect to capital commitments are generally amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment. Other fees, including certain amendment fees, prepayment fees and commitment fees on broken deals, are recognized as earned. Prepayment fees and similar income received upon the early repayment of a loan or debt security are included in interest income.

 

Certain debt investments are purchased at a considerable discount to par as a result of the underlying credit risks and financial results of the issuer, as well as general market factors that influence the financial markets as a whole. GAAP generally requires that discounts on the acquisition of corporate bonds, municipal bonds and treasury bonds be amortized using the effective-interest or constant-yield method. GAAP also requires the collectability of interest to be considered when making accruals. Accordingly, when accounting for purchase discounts, discount accretion income is recognized when it is probable that such amounts will be collected, generally at disposition. When principal payments on a loan are received in an amount in excess of the loan’s amortized cost, the excess principal payments are recorded as interest income.

Income Taxes

 

The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is required in the consolidated financial statements. The income or loss of the Partnership and TCPC Funding is reported in the respective partners’ income tax returns. In accordance with ASC Topic 740 – Income Taxes, the Company recognizes in its consolidated financial statements the effect of a tax position when it is determined that such position is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, to be sustained upon examination. As of September 30, 2013, all tax years of the Company, the Partnership, and TCPC Funding since January 1, 2010 remain subject to examination by federal tax authorities. No such examinations are currently pending.

  

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company paid $969,946 in excise taxes related to income earned in 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company paid $502,978 in excise taxes related to income earned in 2011.

  

Cost and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments (including derivatives) for U.S. federal income tax purposes at September 30, 2013 were as follows:

 

Unrealized appreciation  $30,645,941 
Unrealized depreciation   (113,178,794)
Net unrealized depreciation   (82,532,853)
      
Cost  $786,700,186 

 

3. Management Fees, Incentive Compensation and Other Expenses

 

Following the Conversion, the Company’s management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.5% of total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) on a consolidated basis as of the beginning of each quarter and is payable to the Investment Manager quarterly in arrears.

3. Management Fees, Incentive Compensation and Other Expenses (continued)

 

Incentive compensation is only paid to the extent the total performance of the Company exceeds a cumulative 8% annual return since January 1, 2013 (the “Total Return Hurdle”). The Company did not incur any incentive compensation prior to January 1, 2013. Beginning January 1, 2013, the incentive compensation equals 20% of net investment income (reduced by preferred dividends) and 20% of net realized gains (reduced by any net unrealized losses), subject to the Total Return Hurdle. The incentive compensation is payable quarterly in arrears as an allocation and distribution to the General Partner and is calculated as the difference between cumulative incentive compensation earned since January 1, 2013 and cumulative incentive compensation paid since January 1, 2013. A reserve for incentive compensation is accrued based on incentive compensation distributable to the General Partner assuming a hypothetical liquidation of the Company at net asset value on the balance sheet date. At September 30, 2013, the General Partner’s equity interest in the Partnership was comprised entirely of the reserve amount and is reported as a minority interest in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

 

Prior to the Conversion, the Investment Manager received an annual management and advisory fee, payable monthly in arrears, equal to 1.0% of committed capital, defined as the sum of the maximum amount of the Preferred Interests, the maximum amount available under the revolving credit facility, the initial value of the contributed general partnership equity and the initial value of the contributed common equity, subject to reduction by the amount of the revolving credit facility commitment when the facility is no longer outstanding, and by the amount of the Preferred Interests when less than $1 million in liquidation preference of preferred securities remains outstanding. In addition to the management fee, the General Partner was entitled to a performance allocation equal to 20% of all cumulative income and gain distributions, subject to an 8% hurdle on undistributed contributed equity with a catch up for the General Partner.

4. Debt (continued)

 

Partnership Facility

 

The Partnership Facility provides for amounts to be drawn up to $116 million, subject to certain collateral and other restrictions. On September 19, 2013, the Partnership Facility was amended to extend the maturity date from July 31, 2014 to July 31, 2016. Most of the cash and investments held directly by the Partnership, as well as the net assets of TCPC Funding, are included in the collateral for the facility.

 

Advances under the Partnership Facility through July 31, 2014 bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.44% per annum, except in the case of loans from CP Conduits, which bear interest at the higher of LIBOR plus 0.44% or the CP Conduit’s cost of funds plus 0.44%, subject to certain limitations. Advances under the Partnership Facility for periods from July 31, 2014 through the maturity date of the facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum, except in the case of loans from CP Conduits, which bear interest at the higher of LIBOR plus 2.50% or the CP Conduit’s cost of funds plus 2.50%, subject to certain limitations. In addition to amounts due on outstanding debt, the facility accrues commitment fees of 0.20% per annum on the unused portion of the facility, or 0.25% per annum when less than $46.4 million in borrowings are outstanding. The facility may be terminated, and any outstanding amounts thereunder may become due and payable, should the Partnership fail to satisfy certain financial or other covenants. As of September 30, 2013, the Partnership was in full compliance with such covenants.

 

TCPC Funding Facility

 

The TCPC Funding Facility, issued on May 17, 2013, provides for amounts to be drawn up to $100 million, subject to certain collateral and other restrictions. The facility matures May 17, 2016, subject to extension by the lender at the request of TCPC Funding, and contains an accordion feature which allows for expansion of the facility up to $200 million subject to consent from the lender and other customary conditions. The cash and investments of TCPC Funding are included in the collateral for the facility.

 

Borrowings under the TCPC Funding Facility bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum. In addition to amounts due on outstanding debt, the facility accrues commitment fees of 0.75% per annum on the unused portion of the facility, or 1.00% per annum when the unused portion is greater than 33% of the total facility. The facility may be terminated, and any outstanding amounts thereunder may become due and payable, should TCPC Funding fail to satisfy certain financial or other covenants. As of September 30, 2013, TCPC Funding was in full compliance with such covenants.

5. Commitments, Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

 

The Partnership and TCPC Funding conduct business with brokers and dealers that are primarily headquartered in New York and Los Angeles and are members of the major securities exchanges. Banking activities are conducted with a firm headquartered in the New York area.

 

In the normal course of business, investment activities involve executions, settlement and financing of various transactions resulting in receivables from, and payables to, brokers, dealers and the custodian. These activities may expose the Company, the Partnership, and TCPC Funding to risk in the event that such parties are unable to fulfill contractual obligations. Management does not anticipate any material losses from counterparties with whom it conducts business. Consistent with standard business practice, the Company, the Partnership, and TCPC Funding enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications, and are engaged from time to time in various legal actions. The maximum exposure under these arrangements and activities is unknown. However, management expects the risk of material loss to be remote.

 

The Consolidated Statement of Investments includes certain revolving loan facilities held by the Partnership with aggregate unfunded balances of $2,480,000 at September 30, 2013.

Pursuant to administration agreements between the Administrator and each of the Company and the Partnership (the “Administration Agreements”), the Administrator may be reimbursed for costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator for office space rental, office equipment and utilities allocable to the Company or the Partnership, as well as costs and expenses incurred by the Administrator or its affiliates relating to any administrative, operating, or other non-investment advisory services provided by the Administrator or its affiliates to the Company or the Partnership. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, expenses allocated pursuant to the Administration Agreements totaled $592,422.
