NEW YORK, November 7, 2024 – Portman Ridge Finance Corporation (Nasdaq: PTMN) (the “Company” or “Portman Ridge”) announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Third Quarter 2024 Highlights

 

   

Total investment income for the third quarter of 2024 was $15.2 million, as compared to $16.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, and $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2023.

 

   

Core investment income1, excluding the impact of purchase price accounting, for the third quarter of 2024 was $15.2 million, as compared to $16.2 million for the second quarter of 2024, and $18.3 million for the third quarter of 2023.

 

   

Net investment income (“NII”) for the third quarter of 2024 was $5.8 million ($0.63 per share) as compared to $6.5 million ($0.70 per share) in the second quarter of 2024, and $7.2 million ($0.75 per share) for the third quarter of 2023.

 

   

Net asset value (“NAV”), as of September 30, 2024, was $188.0 million ($20.36 per share), as compared to NAV of $196.4 million ($21.21 per share) as of June 30, 2024.

 

   

Total shares repurchased in open market transactions under the Renewed Stock Repurchase Program during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, were 33,429 shares at an aggregate cost of approximately $0.6 million, which was accretive to NAV by $0.01 per share.

Core investment income represents reported total investment income as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, less the impact of purchase discount accretion in connection with the Garrison Capital Inc. (“GARS”) and Harvest Capital Credit Corporation (“HCAP”) mergers. Portman Ridge believes presenting core investment income and the related per share amount is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial performance due to the unique circumstance giving rise to the purchase accounting adjustment. However, core investment income is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for total investment income and other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, core investment income should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing Portman Ridge’s financial performance.


   

In July, the Company amended the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facility (“JPM Credit Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPM”) by increasing the aggregate principal amount by $85.0 million, for a total of $200.0 million, and reduced the applicable margin from 2.80% per annum to 2.50% per annum. Additionally, the reinvestment period was extended from April 29, 2025 to August 29, 2026, and the maturity date was extended from April 29, 2026 to August 29, 2027. Finally, using the amended JPM Credit Facility, the Company refinanced the remaining $85.0 million of the Senior Secured Notes, due November 20, 2029 and issued by Portman Ridge Funding 2018-2 LLC (the “2018-2 Secured Notes”), on August 20, 2024.

Subsequent Events

 

   

On November 7, 2024, the Company declared a cash distribution of $0.69 per share of common stock. The distribution is payable on November 29, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 19, 2024.

Management Commentary

Ted Goldthorpe, Chief Executive Officer of Portman Ridge, stated, “Following the strong earnings we saw in the first half of 2024, the Company’s third quarter earnings were temporarily impacted by prudent cash and portfolio management initiatives prior to successfully refinancing the 2018-2 Secured Notes. However, I am very pleased with the work we did on the right-side of the balance sheet and the substantial improvements we made to the Company’s debt capital structure. Specifically, the Company upsized and termed out the JPM Credit Facility, while also reducing the spread by a full 30 basis points. Further, using the upsized and lower cost JPM Credit Facility, the Company refinanced the remaining $85.0 million of 2018-2 Secured Notes at the end of August, which resulted in further net spread savings of approximately 28 basis points. These savings are significant, and the Company’s new lower cost of financing positions the Company well for the future.

With that in mind, we continue to believe our stock remains undervalued and thus we continued repurchasing shares during the third quarter of 2024 under our Rule 10b-5 stock repurchase program. Specifically, during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 33,429 shares in the open market for an aggregate cost of approximately $0.6 million, which was accretive to NAV by $0.01 per share and reinforces our commitment to increasing shareholder value.

Looking ahead to the final quarter of 2024 and the beginning of 2025, with the Company’s balance sheet fortified by the amended lower cost JPM Credit Facility, we expect to be active in the market and net deployers of the Company’s capital which we believe will restore net investment income back in line with more normalized levels. Above all, despite the current economic uncertainty and a dynamic interest rate environment, we remain confident in our prudent investment strategy, strong pipeline, and experienced management team, and believe the Company remains well positioned with strong spillover earnings to continue to deliver positive returns to our shareholders.”

Selected Financial Highlights

 

   

Total investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, was $15.2 million, of which $12.7 million was attributable to interest income, inclusive of payment-in-kind income, from the Debt Securities Portfolio. This compares to total investment income of $18.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, of which $15.8 million was attributable to interest income, inclusive of payment-in-kind income, from the Debt Securities Portfolio.


   

Core investment income for the third quarter of 2024, excluding the impact of purchase discount accretion, was $15.2 million, a decrease of $3.1 million as compared to core investment income of $18.3 million for the third quarter of 2023.

 

   

Net investment income (“NII”) for the third quarter of 2024 was $5.8 million ($0.63 per share) as compared to $7.2 million ($0.75 per share) for the third quarter of 2023.

 

   

Non-accruals on debt investments, as of September 30, 2024, were nine debt investments representing 1.6% and 4.5% of the Company’s investment portfolio at fair value and amortized cost, respectively. This compares to nine debt investments representing 0.5% and 4.5% of the Company’s investment portfolio at fair value and amortized cost, respectively, as of June 30, 2024.

 

   

Total investments at fair value as of September 30, 2024, were $429.0 million and consisted of investments in 95 portfolio companies. The debt investment portfolio at fair value as of September 30, 2024 was $347.0 million, which excludes CLO Funds and Joint Ventures, and was comprised of 72 different portfolio companies across 28 different industries with an average par balance per entity of approximately $2.7 million. This compares to total investments of $444.4 million at fair value as of June 30, 2024 and consisted of investments in 92 portfolio companies. The debt investment portfolio at fair value as of June 30, 2024 was $358.9 million, which excludes CLO Funds and Joint Ventures, and was comprised of 75 different portfolio companies across 28 different industries with an average par balance per entity of approximately $2.6 million.

 

   

Weighted average contractual interest rate on our interest earning Debt Securities Portfolio as of September 30, 2024 was approximately 11.9%.

 

   

Par value of outstanding borrowings, as of September 30, 2024, was $267.5 million compared to $285.1 million as of June 30, 2024, with an asset coverage ratio of total assets to total borrowings of 170% and 169%, respectively. On a net basis, leverage as of September 30, 2024 was 1.3x2 compared to net leverage of 1.3x2 as of June 30, 2024.

 

2 

Net leverage is calculated as the ratio between (A) debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, less available cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash and (B) NAV. Portman Ridge believes presenting a net leverage ratio is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure because it reflects the Company’s financial condition net of $26.8 million and $36.6 million of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively. However, the net leverage ratio is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for the regulatory asset coverage ratio and other similar information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, the net leverage ratio should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing Portman Ridge’s financial condition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On August 20, 2024, an optional redemption of the CLO occurred, and all rated notes were repaid in full. As of September 30, 2024, no 2018-2 Secured Notes were outstanding.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had unrestricted cash of $13.7 million and restricted cash of $13.0 million. This compares to unrestricted cash of $9.8 million and restricted cash of $26.8 million as of June 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $40.5 million of available borrowing capacity under the JPM Credit Facility.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s investment income is affected by fluctuations in various interest rates, including SOFR and prime rates.

As of September 30, 2024, approximately 91.2% of our Debt Securities Portfolio at par value were either floating rate with a spread to an interest rate index such as SOFR or the PRIME rate. 88.5% of these floating rate loans contain floors ranging between 0.50% and 5.25%. We generally expect that future portfolio investments will predominately be floating rate investments.

In periods of rising or lowering interest rates, the cost of the portion of debt associated with the 4.875% Notes Due 2026 would remain the same, given that this debt is at a fixed rate, while the interest rate on borrowings under the JPM Credit Facility would fluctuate with changes in interest rates.


Generally, the Company would expect that an increase in the base rate index for floating rate investment assets would increase gross investment income and a decrease in the base rate index for such assets would decrease gross investment income (in either case, such increase/decrease may be limited by interest rate floors/minimums for certain investment assets).
