"We had another good quarter with respect to the strong growth in our book value and substantial progress towards deleveraging our balance sheet," said Malon Wilkus, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our asset coverage ratio is now back over 200% as our book value has grown by $1.2 billion and we have repaid $1.4 billion of debt since the low-point in the second quarter last year. We are now focused on originating high quality investment opportunities while continuing to improve our balance sheet. We have generated a 27% return on equity since the second quarter of 2009 and believe we will continue to generate strong book value growth for our shareholders as we recover from the recession."
NET OPERATING INCOME
NOI increased to $29 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to $20 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the comparable quarter in 2009.
NET REALIZED LOSS
Net Realized Loss improved to $(291) million, or $(0.87) per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to $(306) million, or $(1.41) per diluted share, for the comparable quarter in 2009.
NET EARNINGS (LOSS)
Net earnings (loss) improved to $281 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 compared to $(547) million, or $(2.52) per diluted share, for the comparable quarter in 2009.
PORTFOLIO VALUATION
For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, net unrealized appreciation of investments totaled $572 million. The primary components of the net unrealized appreciation were:
- $157 million of appreciation on American Capital's investment in European Capital Limited, excluding any impact of foreign currency translation on European Capital Limited's cost basis or cumulative unrealized depreciation, primarily due to appreciation in the NAV of European Capital Limited and a decrease to the implied discount to NAV;
- The equity investment in European Capital Limited is valued at $0.4 billion compared to European Capital Limited's NAV of approximately $0.7 billion.
- $139 million of net appreciation of American Capital's private finance portfolio primarily a result of improved portfolio company performance, multiples and investment spreads; and
- $309 million of reversals of prior unrealized depreciation associated with net realized losses on portfolio investments.
As of June 30, 2010, NAV per share was $9.15, an increase of $0.17 per share from a NAV per share of $8.98 as of March 31, 2010.
"With our asset coverage ratio now above 200%, we no longer have restrictions on our ability to pay dividends," said John Erickson, Chief Financial Officer. "But, our realized losses have reduced the requirement for a dividend in the near term. We have no remaining undistributed taxable income for our 2009 tax year and we currently project that we will have no 2010 taxable income due to carry over capital losses and additional ordinary loan losses from assets that are already depreciated on our books. We will continue to focus on maximizing the value of our assets to drive strong growth in shareholder value."
PORTFOLIO LIQUIDITY AND PERFORMANCE
In the second quarter of 2010, $351 million of cash proceeds were received from realizations of portfolio investments and exits, which were 7.7% higher than the prior quarter's valuations of the investments. There was $52 million in new committed investments during the quarter. The weighted average effective interest rate on the Company's private finance debt investments as of June 30, 2010 was 10.3%, which was equal to the March 31, 2010 rate and 40 basis points higher than as of December 31, 2009.
As of June 30, 2010, loans with a fair value of $308 million were on non-accrual representing 8.5% of total loans at fair value, compared to $263 million fair value of non-accrual loans representing 7.0% of total loans at fair value as of March 31, 2010.
"The quality of the portfolio continues to improve," said Gordon O'Brien, President of Specialty Finance and Operations. "Our investment and operations teams have made good progress in improving many of our troubled companies and the pace of new troubles developing in the portfolio has slowed significantly. We are pleased to now be able to turn our focus to making new investments. History has shown that the most attractive investment opportunities are made during the recovery from a recession and we believe that will continue to hold true."
