Apollo Investment Corporation Announces Quarterly Financial Results, Senior Management Changes, Quarterly Dividend …
NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwire -02/08/12)- Apollo Investment Corporation (NASDAQ: AINV – News)
The Board announced today that Mr. Edward Goldthorpe will be joining Apollo Investment Corporation as its President, succeeding Mr. Patrick Dalton, who formerly held positions as President and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Edward Goldthorpe will also replace Mr. Dalton as Chief Investment Officer of our investment adviser. The Company announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Mr. James Zelter as the Company‘s interim President, effective immediately. He will also serve as interim CIO of Apollo Investment Management until Mr. Goldthorpe joins, which is expected to occur in the next 90 days. Mr. Zelter will retain his position as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Apollo Investment also announced that its Board of Directors has appointed Mr. Gene Donnelly, Apollo Global Management, LLC’s CFO, as interim CFO and Treasurer for the Company. Mr. Donnelly succeeds Mr. Richard Peteka who formerly served as the Company’s CFO and Treasurer. Mr. Donnelly will serve as interim CFO and Treasurer until a permanent replacement has been appointed by the Board. The Board also named Ms. Eileen Patrick as the Executive Vice President of Corporate Strategy for the Company. In this newly created role, Ms. Patrick will assist in the execution of Apollo Investment Corporation’s strategic expansion during this period of transition.
In order to capitalize on various proprietary market opportunities and to maintain an appropriate capital structure, the Board has authorized management to explore whether the Company should raise up to $200 million of additional equity capital, which may be conducted, among other means, through either a marketed deal or a rights offering. Apollo Global Management has informed the Company that it intends to support AINV’s equity capital raise, which in the case of a rights offering could include the exercise of oversubscription rights as a backstop for up to $50 million. In further support of an equity offering, Apollo Investment Management has informed the Company that it intends to waive its management and incentive fees associated with any shares issued through this offering. Additionally, Apollo Global Management may also purchase shares of AINV in the open market.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2012 a dividend of $0.20 per share, payable on April 3, 2012 to stockholders of record as of February 18, 2012. We believe having a dividend that is more closely aligned with net investment income per share is prudent and appropriate. The specific tax characteristics of this dividend will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end of the calendar year.
Mr. Zelter, Apollo Investment Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Since the onset of the global credit crisis, we believe the role of business development companies such as Apollo Investment Corporation has become increasingly important, filling the gap left by banks and traditional financial services companies. Prior to the credit crisis, AINV focused primarily on providing acquisition financing to middle market private equity sponsors. Today, we believe the growing void in the capital markets creates attractive opportunities for our business. Consequently, we intend to expand our footprint to provide a wider array of proprietary private financing solutions for companies across a broad spectrum of industries and situations. The changes we have announced today, including more closely aligning our dividend with our net investment income and our decision to explore the raising of additional equity capital, are designed to reposition us to grow our business in the current environment.”
Mr. Zelter continued, “We are very pleased that industry veteran Edward Goldthorpe has agreed to join the senior management team at AINV, and we are confident he will play a major role in driving growth and value creation for the Company. Broadly speaking, we believe the changes we have made will enable us to capitalize on the meaningful opportunities we see in the current market and generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders.”

GOLDTHORPE:Mr. Goldthorpe was most recently with Goldman Sachs for the past 13 years, where he served as a Managing Director with the Bank Loan Distressed Investing Desk (2009-2012), and prior to that Mr. Goldthorpe was a Managing Director with the Special Situations Group within the firm’s Securities Division (2005-2009). Previously, Mr. Goldthorpe was a Vice President in the High Yield Distressed Group (2001-2005), an analyst in the Merchant Banking Division (2000-2001), and an analyst in the Investment Banking Division (1999-2000).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results comparisons below are for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Investment Income
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011, gross investment income totaled $83.8 million and $272.4 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, gross investment income totaled $94.3 million and $264.1 million, respectively. The decrease in gross investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in the receipt of prepayment premiums and other deal related income. The increase in gross investment income for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in the receipt of prepayment premiums and other deal related income.
Expenses
Expenses totaled $45.3 million and $140.7 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011, of which $24.3 million and $75.6 million, respectively, were base management fees and performance-based incentive fees and $16.9 million and $50.2 million, respectively, were interest and other debt expenses. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $4.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. Expenses totaled $44.2 million and $122.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, of which $27.7 million and $80.1 million, respectively, were base management fees and performance-based incentive fees and $13.4 million and $34.1 million, respectively, were interest and other debt expenses. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $3.0 million and $8.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010. Expenses consist of base investment advisory and management fees, insurance expenses, administrative services fees, legal fees, directors’ fees, audit and tax services expenses, and other general and administrative expenses. The increase in expenses from the December 2010 periods to the December 2011 periods was primarily due to an increase in interest expense as our average interest cost in the current periods is over 100 basis points higher than in the year ago periods and the average debt outstanding is roughly $150 million higher on a year over year basis. The increase in average interest cost resulted from the issuance of new tranches of long-term fixed rate debt in periods during and subsequent to the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2010. In addition, in the nine month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized approximately $4.0 million in net non-recurring expenses, including legal and other professional expenses of $4.7 million net of a non-recurring reduction of administrative expenses.
Net Investment Income
The Company’s net investment income totaled $38.5 million and $131.7 million, or $0.20 and $0.67, per average basic share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. The Company’s net investment income totaled $50.1 million and $141.1 million, or $0.26 and $0.73, per average basic share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010.
Net Realized Losses
The Company had investment sales and prepayments totaling $175 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. The Company had investment sales and prepayments totaling $481 million and $722 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010. Net realized losses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011 were $275.0 million and $341.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, net realized losses totaled $64.9 million and $150.5 million, respectively. Net realized losses for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2011 were primarily derived from the exits of select investments, specifically Grand Prix Holdings, which accounted for $274 million of the realized loss totals, but also included Playpower Holdings, TL Acquisitions and FSC Holdings. The realized losses incurred upon the exit of these investments reversed out previously reported unrealized losses. Net realized losses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 were primarily derived from selective exits and restructurings of underperforming investments.
Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments, Cash Equivalents and Foreign Currencies
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011, net change in unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments, cash equivalents, foreign currencies and other assets and liabilities totaled $300.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, net change in unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments, cash equivalents, foreign currencies and other assets and liabilities totaled $99.3 million and $77.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the increase in unrealized appreciation was mainly derived from the reclassification of $274 million of previously recognized unrealized depreciation on our investment in Grand Prix Holdings to a realized loss. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, the change in unrealized depreciation was comprised of the impact from Grand Prix Holdings together with the general decline in capital market conditions during the period. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, net unrealized appreciation was impacted by net changes in specific portfolio company fundamentals and stronger capital market conditions.
Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets From Operations
For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company had a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $63.7 million. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, the Company had a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $203.5 million. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, the Company had a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $84.5 million and $68.4 million, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2011 basic and diluted earnings per average share were $0.32 and $0.31, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, basic and diluted losses per average share were $1.04 and $1.04, respectively. The basic and diluted earnings per average share were $0.43 and $0.36 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s liquidity and capital resources are generated and generally available through periodic follow-on equity and debt offerings, our senior secured, multi-currency $1.254 billion revolving credit facility maturing on April 12, 2013 (see note 10 within the Notes to Financial Statements) (the “Facility”), our senior secured notes, investments in special purpose entities in which we hold and finance particular investments on a non-recourse basis, as well as from cash flows from operations, investment sales of liquid assets and prepayments of senior and subordinated loans and income earned from investments. The Company also has investments in its portfolio that contain PIK provisions. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Company capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. In order to maintain the Company’s status as a RIC, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders annually in the form of dividends, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, accrued PIK totaled $13.1 million, on total investment income of $272.4 million. On April 13, 2011, $380 million of commitments on the Facility matured. At December 31, 2011, the Company had $743 million in borrowings outstanding on its Facility and $511 million of unused capacity. As of December 31, 2011, aggregate lender commitments under the Facility total $1.254 billion.
On May 3, 2010, the Company closed on its most recent follow-on public equity offering of 17.25 million shares of common stock at $12.40 per share raising approximately $204 million in net proceeds. In the future, the Company may raise additional equity or debt capital, among other considerations. The primary use of funds will be investments in portfolio companies, reductions in debt outstanding and other general corporate purposes, including the payment of interest, fees or distributions to shareholders.
On September 30, 2010, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement, providing for a private placement issuance of $225 million in aggregate principal amount of five-year, senior secured notes with a fixed interest rate of 6.25% and a maturity date of October 4, 2015 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). On October 4, 2010, the Senior Secured Notes were sold to certain institutional accredited investors pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes will be due semi-annually on April 4 and October 4, commencing on April 4, 2011. The proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes were primarily used to reduce other outstanding borrowings and/or commitments on the Company’s Facility.
On January 25, 2011, the Company closed a private offering of $200 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes were issued in a private placement only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The Convertible Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.75%, payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on July 15, 2011. The Convertible Notes will mature on January 15, 2016 unless earlier converted or repurchased at the holder’s option. Prior to December 15, 2015, the Convertible Notes will be convertible only upon certain corporate reorganizations, dilutive recapitalizations or dividends, or if, during specified periods our shares trade at more than 130% of the then applicable conversion price or the Convertible Notes trade at less than 97% of their conversion value and, thereafter, at any time. The Convertible Notes will be convertible by the holders into shares of common stock, initially at a conversion rate of 72.7405 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (14,548,100 common shares) corresponding to an initial conversion price per share of approximately $13.75, which represents a premium of 17.5% to the $11.70 per share closing price of the Company’s common stock on The NASDAQ Global Select Market on January 19, 2011. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon certain events, such as stock splits and combinations, mergers, spin-offs, increases in dividends in excess of $0.28 per share per quarter and certain changes in control. Certain of these adjustments, including adjustments for increases in dividends, are subject to a conversion price floor of $11.70 per share. The Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Notes; equal in right of payment to our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness (including existing unsecured indebtedness that we later secure) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by our subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.
On August 11, 2011, the Company adopted a plan for the purpose of repurchasing up to $200 million of its common stock in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s plan was designed to allow it to repurchase its shares both during its open window periods and at times when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. A broker selected by the Company will have the authority under the terms and limitations specified in the plan to repurchase shares on the Company’s behalf in accordance with the terms of the plan. Repurchases are subject to SEC regulations as well as certain price, market volume and timing constraints specified in the plan. While the portion of the plan reliant on Rule 10b-18 remains in effect, the portion reliant on Rule 10b5-1 is subject to periodic renewal and is not currently in effect. As of December 31, 2011, no shares have been repurchased.
On September 29, 2011, the Company closed a private offering of $45 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the “Notes”) consisting of two series: (1) 5.875% Senior Secured Notes, Series A, of the Company due September 29, 2016 in the aggregate principal amount of $29 million; and (2) 6.250% Senior Secured Notes, Series B, of the Company due September 29, 2018, in the aggregate principal amount of $16 million. The Notes were issued in a private placement only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds from the offering of Notes are intended to be used to fund new portfolio investments, reduce outstanding borrowings on the Company’s Facility and for general corporate purposes, including the payment of interest, fees or distributions to shareholders.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results comparisons below are for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Investment Income
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011, gross investment income totaled $83.8 million and $272.4 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, gross investment income totaled $94.3 million and $264.1 million, respectively. The decrease in gross investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2010 was primarily due to a decrease in the receipt of prepayment premiums and other deal related income. The increase in gross investment income for the nine months ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in the receipt of prepayment premiums and other deal related income.
Expenses
Expenses totaled $45.3 million and $140.7 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011, of which $24.3 million and $75.6 million, respectively, were base management fees and performance-based incentive fees and $16.9 million and $50.2 million, respectively, were interest and other debt expenses. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $4.0 million and $14.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. Expenses totaled $44.2 million and $122.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, of which $27.7 million and $80.1 million, respectively, were base management fees and performance-based incentive fees and $13.4 million and $34.1 million, respectively, were interest and other debt expenses. Administrative services and other general and administrative expenses totaled $3.0 million and $8.8 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010. Expenses consist of base investment advisory and management fees, insurance expenses, administrative services fees, legal fees, directors’ fees, audit and tax services expenses, and other general and administrative expenses. The increase in expenses from the December 2010 periods to the December 2011 periods was primarily due to an increase in interest expense as our average interest cost in the current periods is over 100 basis points higher than in the year ago periods and the average debt outstanding is roughly $150 million higher on a year over year basis. The increase in average interest cost resulted from the issuance of new tranches of long-term fixed rate debt in periods during and subsequent to the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2010. In addition, in the nine month period ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized approximately $4.0 million in net non-recurring expenses, including legal and other professional expenses of $4.7 million net of a non-recurring reduction of administrative expenses.
Net Investment Income
The Company’s net investment income totaled $38.5 million and $131.7 million, or $0.20 and $0.67, per average basic share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. The Company’s net investment income totaled $50.1 million and $141.1 million, or $0.26 and $0.73, per average basic share, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010.
Net Realized Losses
The Company had investment sales and prepayments totaling $175 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011. The Company had investment sales and prepayments totaling $481 million and $722 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010. Net realized losses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011 were $275.0 million and $341.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, net realized losses totaled $64.9 million and $150.5 million, respectively. Net realized losses for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2011 were primarily derived from the exits of select investments, specifically Grand Prix Holdings, which accounted for $274 million of the realized loss totals, but also included Playpower Holdings, TL Acquisitions and FSC Holdings. The realized losses incurred upon the exit of these investments reversed out previously reported unrealized losses. Net realized losses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010 were primarily derived from selective exits and restructurings of underperforming investments.
Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments, Cash Equivalents and Foreign Currencies
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2011, net change in unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments, cash equivalents, foreign currencies and other assets and liabilities totaled $300.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, net change in unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments, cash equivalents, foreign currencies and other assets and liabilities totaled $99.3 million and $77.7 million, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the increase in unrealized appreciation was mainly derived from the reclassification of $274 million of previously recognized unrealized depreciation on our investment in Grand Prix Holdings to a realized loss. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, the change in unrealized depreciation was comprised of the impact from Grand Prix Holdings together with the general decline in capital market conditions during the period. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, net unrealized appreciation was impacted by net changes in specific portfolio company fundamentals and stronger capital market conditions.
Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets From Operations
For the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company had a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $63.7 million. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, the Company had a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $203.5 million. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010, the Company had a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $84.5 million and $68.4 million, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2011 basic and diluted earnings per average share were $0.32 and $0.31, respectively. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, basic and diluted losses per average share were $1.04 and $1.04, respectively. The basic and diluted earnings per average share were $0.43 and $0.36 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2010.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s liquidity and capital resources are generated and generally available through periodic follow-on equity and debt offerings, our senior secured, multi-currency $1.254 billion revolving credit facility maturing on April 12, 2013 (see note 10 within the Notes to Financial Statements) (the “Facility”), our senior secured notes, investments in special purpose entities in which we hold and finance particular investments on a non-recourse basis, as well as from cash flows from operations, investment sales of liquid assets and prepayments of senior and subordinated loans and income earned from investments. The Company also has investments in its portfolio that contain PIK provisions. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Company capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. In order to maintain the Company’s status as a RIC, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders annually in the form of dividends, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash. For the nine months ended December 31, 2011, accrued PIK totaled $13.1 million, on total investment income of $272.4 million. On April 13, 2011, $380 million of commitments on the Facility matured. At December 31, 2011, the Company had $743 million in borrowings outstanding on its Facility and $511 million of unused capacity. As of December 31, 2011, aggregate lender commitments under the Facility total $1.254 billion.
On May 3, 2010, the Company closed on its most recent follow-on public equity offering of 17.25 million shares of common stock at $12.40 per share raising approximately $204 million in net proceeds. In the future, the Company may raise additional equity or debt capital, among other considerations. The primary use of funds will be investments in portfolio companies, reductions in debt outstanding and other general corporate purposes, including the payment of interest, fees or distributions to shareholders.
On September 30, 2010, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement, providing for a private placement issuance of $225 million in aggregate principal amount of five-year, senior secured notes with a fixed interest rate of 6.25% and a maturity date of October 4, 2015 (the “Senior Secured Notes”). On October 4, 2010, the Senior Secured Notes were sold to certain institutional accredited investors pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes will be due semi-annually on April 4 and October 4, commencing on April 4, 2011. The proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Secured Notes were primarily used to reduce other outstanding borrowings and/or commitments on the Company’s Facility.
On January 25, 2011, the Company closed a private offering of $200 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes were issued in a private placement only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The Convertible Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.75%, payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on July 15, 2011. The Convertible Notes will mature on January 15, 2016 unless earlier converted or repurchased at the holder’s option. Prior to December 15, 2015, the Convertible Notes will be convertible only upon certain corporate reorganizations, dilutive recapitalizations or dividends, or if, during specified periods our shares trade at more than 130% of the then applicable conversion price or the Convertible Notes trade at less than 97% of their conversion value and, thereafter, at any time. The Convertible Notes will be convertible by the holders into shares of common stock, initially at a conversion rate of 72.7405 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (14,548,100 common shares) corresponding to an initial conversion price per share of approximately $13.75, which represents a premium of 17.5% to the $11.70 per share closing price of the Company’s common stock on The NASDAQ Global Select Market on January 19, 2011. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon certain events, such as stock splits and combinations, mergers, spin-offs, increases in dividends in excess of $0.28 per share per quarter and certain changes in control. Certain of these adjustments, including adjustments for increases in dividends, are subject to a conversion price floor of $11.70 per share. The Convertible Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to our existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Convertible Notes; equal in right of payment to our existing and future unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness (including existing unsecured indebtedness that we later secure) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by our subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.
On August 11, 2011, the Company adopted a plan for the purpose of repurchasing up to $200 million of its common stock in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s plan was designed to allow it to repurchase its shares both during its open window periods and at times when it otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. A broker selected by the Company will have the authority under the terms and limitations specified in the plan to repurchase shares on the Company’s behalf in accordance with the terms of the plan. Repurchases are subject to SEC regulations as well as certain price, market volume and timing constraints specified in the plan. While the portion of the plan reliant on Rule 10b-18 remains in effect, the portion reliant on Rule 10b5-1 is subject to periodic renewal and is not currently in effect. As of December 31, 2011, no shares have been repurchased.
On September 29, 2011, the Company closed a private offering of $45 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the “Notes”) consisting of two series: (1) 5.875% Senior Secured Notes, Series A, of the Company due September 29, 2016 in the aggregate principal amount of $29 million; and (2) 6.250% Senior Secured Notes, Series B, of the Company due September 29, 2018, in the aggregate principal amount of $16 million. The Notes were issued in a private placement only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds from the offering of Notes are intended to be used to fund new portfolio investments, reduce outstanding borrowings on the Company’s Facility and for general corporate purposes, including the payment of interest, fees or distributions to shareholders.

Wait for Greece-debt deal rattles global markets
NEW YORK — The wait for an expected deal between Greece and its creditors rattled financial markets around the world Monday. Yields for ultra-safe U.S. government debt hit their lowest this year, the euro dropped against the dollar, and European stocks took a fall.
But U.S. stocks dropped only slightly. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 6.74 points to close at 12,653.72, a drop of 0.1 percent. The Dow lost as much as 131 points in morning trading, then slowly recovered in the afternoon.
Borrowing costs for European countries with the heaviest debt burdens shot higher. The two-year interest rate for Portugal’s government debt jumped to 21 percent after trading around 14 percent last week.
Greece and the investors who bought its government bonds were said to be close to an agreement over the weekend. A tentative deal would replace bonds held by investment funds and banks with new ones at half the face value.
The plan is aimed at cutting Greece’s debt by roughly $132 billion. Greece needs it to secure a crucial installment of bailout loans and make an upcoming bond payment. But a deal has been in the works for weeks and could still fall apart.
The focus on Greece has shifted attention away from what’s going well in the U.S., said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at Harris Private Bank. Companies have reported stronger quarterly earnings, and hiring has picked up.
“Our collective breath has been held for so many months,” he said.
At this point, a good or even a bad resolution of Greece’s debt crisis could lead to a stronger U.S. stock market, Ablin said. “If it finally happens and the world doesn’t fall apart, maybe we’ll have a reason to take risk again,” he said. “Once you pull off the Band-Aid, it feels better.”
U.S. Treasury yields sank to their lowest level this year.
In other trading, the Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 3.32 points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,313.01. The Nasdaq composite lost 4.6 points, or 0.2 percent, to 2,811.94.
The euro dropped 0.5 percent against the dollar to $1.3124 in late trading Monday from $1.3208 late Friday. It was worth almost $1.50 in May.

Regions Financial and Huntington Bancshares Look to Continue Strong Recovery
NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwire -01/23/12)- Regional Banks in the U.S. have performed strongly of late. According to a report from The Wall Street Journal regional banks benefitted from an improved lending climate in the fourth quarter as the national economy continues to gain strength. The Paragon Report examines investing opportunities in the Regional Banking Sector and provides equity research on Regions Financial Corporation (NYSE: RF – News) and Huntington Bancshares Inc. (NASDAQ: HBAN – News). Access to the full company reports can be found at:
www.paragonreport.com/RF
www.paragonreport.com/HBAN
Second Curve Capital LLC’s Thomas Brown explains that it is “much more easy” for smaller regional banks to control their business. Brown told Bloomberg that one of the key positives for banks in 2012, big and small, will be significant increases in common-stock dividends. The Federal Reserve explained that it will approve dividend increases and other capital distributions for banks that demonstrate sufficient financial strength to operate under stressed markets.
The Paragon Report provides investors with an excellent first step in their due diligence by providing daily trading ideas, and consolidating the public information available on them. For more investment research on the regional banking sector register with us free at www.paragonreport.com and get exclusive access to our numerous stock reports and industry newsletters.
Last week, Huntington Bancshares Inc. said its fourth-quarter profit rose as the bank increased lending to businesses and set aside less money for problem loans. For the full year 2011, Huntington posted a profit attributable to common shareholders of $511.8 million, or 59 cents per share, compared with $140.3 million, or 19 cents per share, the year before. The company’s board also declared a quarterly cash dividend of 4 cents per share. The dividend will be paid on April 2 to shareholders of record as of March 19.
For 2012, Huntington Bancshares expects to see “modest improvement” in net interest income from its fourth-quarter level, according to its earnings statement.

Prospect Capital and Other Shareholders Enter Into Definitive Agreement to Sell NRG, With Prospect Expected to Receive …
NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwire -01/23/12)- Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: PSEC – News) (“Prospect”) announced today that Prospect and other third-party shareholders have executed a stock purchase agreement to sell their ownership interests in NRG Manufacturing Inc. (“NRG”), a leading manufacturer of oilfield equipment.
The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to close within the next 30 days. Such closing would also result in full repayment of Prospect’s loan to NRG.
Prospect expects to collect approximately $100 million in cash in the March 2012 quarter related to the sale of NRG. This $100 million would consist of approximately $30 million of investment income in the form of prepayment premium and structuring fee, with the remaining approximately $70 million related to debt repayment and equity proceeds. Additional amounts are expected to be escrowed for potential collection in future periods, resulting in potential incremental post-closing proceeds to Prospect of approximately $14 million. As a result, Prospect would receive a total of up to $114 million from the sale of NRG.
Prospect initially invested approximately $12 million of debt and equity in September 2006 to help finance the acquisition of NRG. Including all cash flows over the life of the investment, but not including escrowed amounts, Prospect expects to realize at closing on its combined debt and equity investment a 59% annualized internal rate of return.
With the expected sale of NRG, Prospect estimates it will have generated cumulative net investment income in excess of cumulative distributions to shareholders for both the current August 2012 tax year as well as since Prospect’s inception.
“Coming on the heels of the sale of Gas Solutions by our Energy Solutions portfolio company, Prospect’s sale of NRG adds another valuable realization to the Prospect Capital track record,” said M. Grier Eliasek, President of Prospect. “Our team is hard at work to invest our substantial liquidity. With our more than $1 billion of new originations in calendar year 2011, we have significant capability to invest such liquidity.”
“We applaud the managers of NRG, who have built the company into a premier supplier of mission-critical oilfield equipment,” said Bart J. deBie, a Managing Director of Prospect Capital Management. “Prospect is actively seeking new control and non-control investments across all industries.”
RBC Capital Markets is acting as financial advisor to NRG for the sale.
Separately, Prospect has provided $18.3 million of secured second-lien financing to a financial services processing company purchased by a leading private equity sponsor. Prospect has also invested $34.4 million in Class D senior secured notes and Class E subordinated notes for CIFC Funding 2011-I, Ltd., with third party first loss capital underneath Prospect’s position.

Bailout concerns mounting for federal housing agency
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Concerns are growing that the Federal Housing Administration will need to be bailed out by taxpayers.
The agency’s latest monthly outlook report revealed a spike in serious delinquencies for FHA-insured loans, posing a further threat to the agency’s already depleted cash reserves.
According to the report, the percentage of loans in the FHA’s portfolio with three missed payments or more rose to 9.3% in November, up from 8.4% in August.
“It’s highly likely that the FHA will need a taxpayer bailout over the next three to five years,” said Joseph Gyourko, a real estate professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and author of a report entitled “Is FHA the Next Big Housing Bailout?.”
In November, an independent audit of the FHA’s finances found that losses from mortgage defaults had depleted the agency’s reserve fund to 0.24%, or $2.6 billion, during fiscal 2011 — well below the Congressionally-mandated 2% level. (The ratio measures the net worth of the reserve fund compared with the value of the loans FHA has insured.) In 2006, the reserve fund stood at 7%.
At the time, the agency’s auditor warned that if home prices continued to drop, FHA could run through the remainder of its reserves, forcing it to either seek a bailout from the Treasury Department or further increase the premiums it charges borrowers. The FHA doesn’t issue mortgages, but instead insures lenders against defaults.
Such a bailout could cost billions: Guyourko argues that the FHA is so undercapitalized that it would need at least $50 billion, even if the housing markets don’t deteriorate further. But even by more conservative measures, the agency would need at least $20 billion to meet the capital requirements mandated by Congress.
In early December, the House Financial Services Committee grilled Shaun Donovan, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing Urban Development, over the possibility of a bailout. Donovan blamed FHA’s financial woes on loans made before 2009 and said that loans issued in recent years were experiencing a “dramatic decline in the rate of early payment default.” As a result of these healthier loans, he said the reserve fund would be able to return to the required 2% level in 2014.
Yet, Wharton’s Gyourko argues that the FHA has underestimated the risk of these more recent loans. Many of the new serious delinquencies were from loans issued in 2009 and 2010 and he projects there will be many more defaults to come.
One reason is that many of the borrowers who took out FHA-backed mortgages during this time relied on the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit for down payments. A large percentage of these borrowers didn’t have enough cash for the small 3.5% down payment that FHA requires, let alone the money to make their ongoing mortgage payments, he said.
The FHA said that the vast majority of home buyers who claimed the tax credit used their own cash for down payments or borrowed from relatives and are therefore low risk.
Home prices will also play a key role in whether taxpayers will have to rescue the FHA, said Guy Cecala, publisher of Inside Mortgage Finance, a trade publication.
“Given that most FHA loans are made with a 3.5% down payment, most are underwater within a year after price declines,” he said.
Many FHA borrowers are teetering on the edge of foreclosure and further housing price declines will push many of those over, exposing the agency to more losses. “I think there will have to be a bailout over the next couple of years,” said Cecala.
The FHA claims its total liquid assets are $400 million higher than a year ago and home prices would have to fall 4% to 5% before the agency would need a bailout. It said it has also recognized expected losses and planned for them by raising upfront insurance premiums to bolster its assets.
Still, that might be cutting it close. Home prices are projected to fall another 3% to 4% in 2012 before stabilizing, according to forecasting firm Fiserv.
For all the FHA’s problems, however, it has filled a great need over the past few years, said Cecala. Low-income and first-time home buyers have relied on FHA loans to finance their purchases. Without the backing of the FHA, fewer homes would have been sold and prices would be even lower.
“The housing market would be in far worse shape than it is,” he said

The agency’s latest monthly outlook report revealed a spike in serious delinquencies for FHA-insured loans, posing a further threat to the agency’s already depleted cash reserves.
According to the report, the percentage of loans in the FHA’s portfolio with three missed payments or more rose to 9.3% in November, up from 8.4% in August.
“It’s highly likely that the FHA will need a taxpayer bailout over the next three to five years,” said Joseph Gyourko, a real estate professor at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School and author of a report entitled “Is FHA the Next Big Housing Bailout?.”
In November, an independent audit of the FHA’s finances found that losses from mortgage defaults had depleted the agency’s reserve fund to 0.24%, or $2.6 billion, during fiscal 2011 — well below the Congressionally-mandated 2% level. (The ratio measures the net worth of the reserve fund compared with the value of the loans FHA has insured.) In 2006, the reserve fund stood at 7%.
At the time, the agency’s auditor warned that if home prices continued to drop, FHA could run through the remainder of its reserves, forcing it to either seek a bailout from the Treasury Department or further increase the premiums it charges borrowers. The FHA doesn’t issue mortgages, but instead insures lenders against defaults.
Such a bailout could cost billions: Guyourko argues that the FHA is so undercapitalized that it would need at least $50 billion, even if the housing markets don’t deteriorate further. But even by more conservative measures, the agency would need at least $20 billion to meet the capital requirements mandated by Congress.
In early December, the House Financial Services Committee grilled Shaun Donovan, the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing Urban Development, over the possibility of a bailout. Donovan blamed FHA’s financial woes on loans made before 2009 and said that loans issued in recent years were experiencing a “dramatic decline in the rate of early payment default.” As a result of these healthier loans, he said the reserve fund would be able to return to the required 2% level in 2014.

/ CORRECTION – W. P. Carey & Co. Announces the Passing of Its Founder and Chairman Wm. Polk Carey
NEW YORK, NY–(Marketwire -01/02/12)- In the news release, “W. P. Carey & Co. Announces the Passing of Its Founder and Chairman Wm. Polk Carey,” issued earlier today by W. P. Carey & Co. LLC (NYSE: WPC – News), we are advised by the company that the sixth paragraph should mention “Arizona State University” rather than “University of Arizona” as originally issued. Complete corrected text follows.
W. P. Carey & Co. Announces the Passing of Its Founder and Chairman Wm. Polk Carey
NEW YORK, NY — January 2, 2012 — W. P. Carey & Co.’s Board of Directors sadly announces that company founder and Chairman Wm. Polk Carey died earlier today.
Mr. Carey, who was 81 years old, died of natural causes at Good Samaritan Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida. He was surrounded by family and friends, who had traveled to be with him.
Company Chief Executive Officer Trevor P. Bond stated, “Bill Carey was more than our founder and Chairman — he was the cultural leader of our company. All of us at W. P. Carey & Co. are mourning his loss. At the same time, we know that the best way for us to honor Bill is to continue to deliver outstanding results to our investors. It is up to us, as members of the team he put into place, to continue his life’s work and to ensure that the standards of excellence he established at W. P. Carey & Co. remain intact.”
Mr. Bond continued, “Bill was unwavering in his devotion to our shareholders, and he was especially proud that we have been able to provide increasing income to them, while providing our tenant companies with the capital that allowed them to grow their business and prosper. He felt deep gratitude toward our employees for enabling the firm to deliver such consistently outstanding results in good times and bad.”
Bill Carey was a pioneer in the field of corporate finance for nearly 60 years. Under his leadership, W. P. Carey Co. LLC provided hundreds of companies the capital they required to thrive and prosper. He was largely responsible for development of the sale-leaseback investment strategy for commercial real estate, and his firm remains a global leader in the industry.
In 1988, Mr. Carey established the W. P. Carey Foundation, which supports educational opportunities for young people through significant endowments presented to Arizona State University, Johns Hopkins University and the University of Maryland, as well as contributions to many other fine educational institutions. His brother, Francis J. Carey, said, “Bill was not only an insightful businessman but a wonderful brother and a good citizen. He always felt grateful that he was raised in a family committed to public service — and he worked passionately to uphold that tradition.” Mr. Carey was a direct descendent of President James K. Polk.
