Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | 10. DEBT The annualized weighted average cost of debt for the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment on the Credit Facility, amendment costs and debt issuance costs, was 6.9% and 7.3%, respectively. On April 5, 2018, our board of directors approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2018 (which includes the Small Business Credit Availability Act, or SBCAA). As a result, the asset coverage requirement applicable to us for senior securities was reduced from 200% (i.e., $1 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity) to 150% (i.e., $2 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity), effective as of April 5, 2019, subject to compliance with certain disclosure requirements. As of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, our asset coverage ratio, as computed in accordance with the 1940 Act, was 177% and 174%, respectively. Credit Facility As of June 30, 2025, the Credit Facility has commitments $718.0 million (decreased from $736.0 million in April 2025) has an interest rate spread above SOFR (or an alternative risk-free floating interest rate index) of 200 basis points, a maturity date of August 2030 and a revolving period that ends in August 2028. As of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, Funding I had $298.9 million and $443.9 million of outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, respectively. The Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 6.3% and 7.5%, exclusive of the fee on undrawn commitments as of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, Funding I had $419.1 million and $192.1 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, respectively, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions. The Credit Facility is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC. In April 2025, the Credit Facility was amended. The terms of the amendment decreased the aggregate commitment amounts of the lenders party to the Credit Facility from $736.0 million to $718.0 million, decreased pricing under the Credit Facility to SOFR plus 200 basis points from SOFR plus 225 basis points, extended the reinvestment period one year to August 2028 from August 2027, extended the maturity date of the Credit Facility by one year to August 2030 from August 2029, and increased the maximum first lien advance rate to 72.5% from 70.0%. The Credit Facility contains covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions of loan size, industry requirements, average life of loans, geographic and individual portfolio concentrations, minimum portfolio yield and loan payment frequency. Additionally, the Credit Facility requires the maintenance of a minimum equity investment in Funding I and income ratio as well as restrictions on certain payments and issuance of debt. The Credit Facility compliance reporting is prepared on a basis of accounting other than GAAP. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the covenants relating to the Credit Facility. We own 100% of the equity interest in Funding I and treat the indebtedness of Funding I as our leverage. Our Investment Adviser serves as collateral manager to Funding I under the Credit Facility. Our interest in Funding I (other than the management fee) is subordinate in priority of payment to every other obligation of Funding I and is subject to certain payment restrictions set forth in the Credit Facility. We may receive cash distributions on our equity interests in Funding I only after it has made all required payments of (1) cash interest and, if applicable, principal to the Lenders, (2) administrative expenses and (3) claims of other unsecured creditors of Funding I. The Investment Adviser has irrevocably directed that any management fee owed with respect to such services is to be paid to the Company so long as the Investment Adviser remains the collateral manager. 2023 Notes In November 2017, we issued $138.6 million aggregate principal amount of our 2023 Notes that matured on December 15, 2023. The 2023 Notes were issued pursuant to a deed of trust between the Company and Mishmeret Trust Company, Ltd., as trustee, in November 2017. In connection with this offering, we have dual listed our common stock on the TASE. On February 7, 2024, the Company filed a notice with the Israel Securities Authority and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd (the “TASE”) voluntarily requesting to delist the Company’s common stock from trading on the TASE. The last day of trading on the TASE was May 6, 2024 and the delisting of the Company’s common stock from the TASE took effect on May 8, 2024. The 2023 Notes paid interest at a rate of 4.3% per year. As a result of the downgrade of the 2023 Notes from “ilA+” to “ilA-” in March 2020, the interest rate of the 2023 Notes was increased to 4.3% from 3.8%. Interest on the 2023 Notes was payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing June 15, 2018. The principal on the 2023 Notes was payable in four annual installments as follows: 15% of the original principal amount on December 15, 2020, 15% of the original principal amount on December 15, 2021, 15% of the original principal amount on December 15, 2022 and 55% of the original principal amount on December 15, 2023. On December 15, 2023, the remaining outstanding 2023 Notes were repaid in full. 2026 Notes In March 2021 an d in October 2021, we issued $100.0 million and $85.0 million, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of $185.0 million of our 2026 Notes at a public offering price per note of 99.4% and 101.5%, respectively. Interest on the 2026 Notes is paid semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, at a rate of 4.25% per year, commencing October 1, 2021. The effective interest rate is 4.15%. The 2026 Notes mature on April 1, 2026 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at our option subject to a make-whole premium if redeemed more than three months prior to maturity. The 2026 Notes are our general, unsecured obligations and rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The 2026 Notes are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to all of our existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of any of our subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities. We do not intend to list the 2026 Notes on any securities exchange or automated dealer quotation system. 2031 Asset-Backed Debt / 2036-R Asset-Backed Debt In September 2019, the Company completed the $301.4 million term debt securitization.
