Fair Value of Financial Instruments

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value estimates are made at discrete points in time based on relevant information. These estimates may be subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized in the tables below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, certain investments are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient and are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy as per ASC 820. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The table below presents a reconciliation of changes for all financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, excluding accrued interest components, using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
(4)
Transfers out of Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, related to the initial public offerings of Gelesis, Inc., Pineapple Energy, LLC, and the conversion of Level 3 debt investments into common stock investments. Transfers into Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 related to the decline of liquidity of Kaleido Biosciences, Inc. shares.
(5)
Amounts listed above are inclusive of loan origination fees received at the inception of the loan which are deferred and amortized into fee income as well as the accretion of existing loan discounts and fees during the period. Escrow receivable purchases may include additions due to proceeds held in escrow from the liquidation of level 3 investments. Amounts are net of purchases assigned to the Adviser Funds.
(6)
Amounts listed above include the acceleration and payment of loan discounts and loan fees due to early payoffs or restructures along with regularly scheduled amortization.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, approximately $1.1 million in net unrealized depreciation and $5.6 million in net unrealized appreciation relating to assets still held at the reporting date were recorded for preferred stock and common stock Level 3 investments, respectively. For the same period, approximately $22.6 million and $0.6 million in net unrealized depreciation was recorded for debt and warrant Level 3 investments, respectively, relating to assets still held at the reporting date.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, approximately $7.3 million in net unrealized depreciation and $2.2 million in net unrealized appreciation relating to assets still held at the reporting date were recorded for preferred stock and common stock Level 3 investments, respectively. For the same period, approximately $8.0 million and $0.3 million in net unrealized depreciation was recorded for debt and warrant Level 3 investments, respectively, relating to assets still held at the reporting date.

 

The following tables provide quantitative information about the Company’s Level 3 fair value measurements as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the tables below, according to the Company’s valuation policy, the Company may also use other valuation techniques and methodologies when determining the Company’s fair value measurements. The tables below are not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather provide information on the significant Level 3 inputs as they relate to the Company’s fair value measurements. See the accompanying Consolidated Schedule of Investments for the fair value of the Company’s investments. The methodology for the determination of the fair value of the Company’s investments is discussed in “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s escrow receivables is the amount recoverable at the contractual maturity date of the escrow receivable.

Total Level 3 Debt Investments

(1)
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s debt securities are hypothetical market yields and premiums/(discounts). The hypothetical market yield is defined as the exit price of an investment in a hypothetical market to hypothetical market participants where buyers and sellers are willing participants. The premiums/(discounts) relate to company specific characteristics such as underlying investment performance, security liens, and other characteristics of the investment. Significant increases (decreases) in the inputs in isolation may result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, depending on the materiality of the investment.

Debt investments in the industries noted in the Company’s Consolidated Schedule of Investments are included in the industries noted above as follows:

Pharmaceuticals, above, is comprised of debt investments in the “Drug Discovery & Development” and “Healthcare Services, Other” industries.
Technology, above, is comprised of debt investments in the “Communications & Networking”, “Information Services”, “Consumer & Business
Services”, “Media/Content/Info” and “Software” industries.
Sustainable and Renewable Technology, above, is comprised of debt investments in the “Sustainable and Renewable Technology” industry.
Lower Middle Market, above, is comprised of debt investments in the “Healthcare Services – Other”, “Consumer & Business Services”, “Diversified
Financial Services”, “Sustainable and Renewable Technology”, and “Software” industries.
(2)
The weighted averages are calculated based on the fair market value of each investment.
(3)
The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of impaired debt securities is the probability weighting of alternative outcomes.
(4)
Imminent payoffs represent debt investments that the Company expects to be fully repaid within the next three months, prior to their scheduled maturity date.

(1)
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s warrant and equity securities are revenue and/or earnings multiples (e.g. EBITDA, EBT, ARR), market equity adjustment factors, and discounts for lack of marketability. Significant increases/(decreases) in the inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher/(lower) fair value measurement, depending on the materiality of the investment. For some investments, additional consideration may be given to data from the last round of financing or merger/acquisition events near the measurement date. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of impaired equity securities is the probability weighting of alternative outcomes.
(2)
Represents amounts used when the Company has determined that market participants would use such multiples when pricing the investments.
(3)
Represents amounts used when the Company has determined market participants would take into account these discounts when pricing the investments.
(4)
Represents the range of changes in industry valuations since the portfolio company's last external valuation event.
(5)
Weighted averages are calculated based on the fair market value of each investment.
(6)
The fair market value of these investments is derived based on recent private market and merger and acquisition transaction prices.
(7)
The discount rate used is based on current portfolio yield adjusted for uncertainty of actual performance and timing in capital deployments.

(1)
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s warrant and equity securities are revenue and/or earnings multiples (e.g. EBITDA, EBT, ARR), market equity adjustment factors, and discounts for lack of marketability. Significant increases/(decreases) in the inputs in isolation would result in a significantly higher/(lower) fair value measurement, depending on the materiality of the investment. For some investments, additional consideration may be given to data from the last round of financing or merger/acquisition events near the measurement date. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of impaired equity securities is the probability weighting of alternative outcomes.
(2)
Represents amounts used when the Company has determined that market participants would use such multiples when pricing the investments.
(3)
Represents amounts used when the Company has determined market participants would take into account these discounts when pricing the investments.
(4)
Represents the range of changes in industry valuations since the portfolio company's last external valuation event.
(5)
Weighted averages are calculated based on the fair market value of each investment.
(6)
The fair market value of these investments is derived based on recent market transactions.
(7)
The discount rate used is based on current portfolio yield adjusted for uncertainty of actual performance and timing in capital deployments.

The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments, other than investments and debt, which consist of cash and cash equivalents, receivables including escrow receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate the fair values of such items due to the short maturity of such instruments. The debt obligations of the Company are recorded at amortized cost and not at fair value on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The fair value of the Company’s outstanding debt obligations are based on observable market trading prices or quotations and unobservable market rates as applicable for each instrument.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the 2033 Notes were trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) at $23.96 and $24.59 per unit at par value. The par value at underwriting for the 2033 Notes was $25.00 per unit. Based on market quotations on or around March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the 2031 Asset-Backed Notes were quoted for 0.940 and 0.951. The fair values of the SBA debentures, July 2024 Notes, February 2025 Notes, June 2025 Notes, June 2025 3-Year Notes, March 2026 A Notes, March 2026 B Notes, September 2026, and January 2027 Notes are calculated based on the net present value of payments over the term of the notes using estimated market rates for similar notes and remaining terms. The fair values of the outstanding debt under the MUFG Bank Facility and the SMBC Facility are equal to their outstanding principal balances as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

The following tables provide additional information about the approximate fair value and level in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022:
