Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | Note 6. Debt Revolving Credit Facility: On June 16, 2014, FIC entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement" and the senior secured revolving credit facility, the “Credit Facility”) with ING Capital LLC (“ING”), as the administrative agent, collateral agent, and lender. The Credit Facility is secured by certain portfolio investments held by the Company, but portfolio investments held by Fund II and Fund III are not collateral for the Credit Facility. On April 24, 2019, the Company entered into an Amended & Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) among the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and ING, as administrative agent. On June 26, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement that, among other changes, modified certain financial covenants. On August 17, 2022, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Amended Credit Agreement ("Second Amendment"). The Second Amendment, among other things: (i) changed the underlying benchmark used to compute interest under the Amended Credit Agreement to SOFR from LIBOR; (ii) reduced the applicable margin from 3.00% to 2.675% on SOFR loans prior to satisfying certain step-down conditions, and from 2.675% to 2.50% after satisfying certain step-down conditions, with commensurate reductions in the applicable margins for base rate loans; (iii) provided for a loan commitment availability period ending on August 17, 2026; (iv) extended the maturity date to August 17, 2027 from April 24, 2023; and (v) amended certain financial covenants, including (a) amending the asset coverage ratio to no less than 1.50 to 1.00 from no less than 2.00 to 1.00 (on a regulatory basis); and (b) requiring the Company to maintain a senior asset coverage ratio of no less than 2.00 to 1.00. The Company pays a commitment fee that varies depending on the size of the unused portion of the Credit Facility: 2.500% to 2.675% per annum on the unused portion of the Credit Facility at or below 35% of the commitments and 0.50% per annum on any remaining unused portion of the Credit Facility between the total commitments and the 35% minimum utilization. The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in a ll of our assets, excluding the assets of our SBIC subsidiaries. Amounts available to borrow under the Credit Facility are subject to a minimum borrowing/collateral base that applies an advance rate to certain investments held by the Company, excluding investments held by Fund II and Fund III. The Company is subject to limitations with respect to the investments securing the Credit Facility, including, but not limited to, restrictions on sector concentrations, loan size, payment frequency and status and collateral interests, as well as restrictions on portfolio company leverage, which may also affect the borrowing base and therefore amounts available to borrow. The Company has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the documents governing the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company was in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the Credit Agreement. SBA debentures: The Company uses debenture leverage provided through the SBA to fund a portion of its investment purchases. Under the SBA debenture program, the SBA commits to purchase debentures issued by SBICs; such debentures have 10-year terms with the entire principal balance due at maturity and are guaranteed by the SBA. Interest on SBA debentures is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no approved and unused SBA debenture commitmen ts. The SBA may limit the amount that may be drawn each year under any SBA debenture commitments, and each issuance of leverage is conditioned on the SBICs full compliance, as determined by the SBA, with the terms and conditions under SBA regulations. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s issued and outstanding SBA debentures mature as follows:

Notes: On December 23, 2020, the Company closed the offering of $125,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 4.75% notes due 2026, or the “January 2026 Notes”. The total net proceeds to the Company from the January 2026 Notes, based on a public offering price of 100.00% of par, after deducting underwriting discounts of $2,500 and offering expenses of $366, were approximately $122,134. The January 2026 Notes will mature on January 31, 2026 and bear interest at a rate of 4.75%. The January 2026 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to tim e at our option subject to a make whole provision if redeemed before October 31, 2025 (the date falling three months prior to maturity) and at par thereafter. Interest on the January 2026 Notes is payable on January 31 and July 31 of each year. The Company does not intend to list the January 2026 Notes on any securities exchange or automated dealer quotation system. On October 8, 2021, the Company closed the offering of $125,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 3.50% notes due 2026, or the “November 2026 Notes” (collectively with the January 2026 Notes, the “Notes”). The total net proceeds to the Company from the November 2026 Notes, based on a public offering price of 99.996% of par, after deducting underwriting discounts of $2,500 and offering ex penses of $318, were approximately $122,177. The November 2026 Notes will mature on November 15, 2026 and bear interest at a rate of 3.50%. The November 2026 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option subject to a make whole provision if redeemed before August 15, 2026 (the date falling three months prior to maturity) and at par thereafter. Interest on the November 2026 Notes is payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Company does not intend to list the November 2026 Notes on any securities exchange or automated dealer quotation system. Each of the Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and rank pari passu with the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness; effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness; and structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of any of its subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities the Company may form in the future, with respect to claims on the assets of any such subsidiaries, financing vehicles, or similar facilities, including the Credit Facility. Secured Borrowing As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of secured borrowings totaled $15,626 and $15,880, respectively, and the fair value of the associated loans included in investments was $15,613 and $15,800, respectively. These secured borrowings were created as a result of our completion of partial loan sales of certain unitranche loan assets that did not meet the definition of a “participating interest” as defined in ASC 860 (see Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies - Partial loan and equity sales” for more information). As a result, sale treatment was not permitted and these partial loan sales were treated as secured borrowings. The weighted average interest rate on our secured borrowings was approximately 9.4% and 9.4% as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Senior Securities As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the aggregate amount outstanding of the senior securities (including secured borrowings) issued by the Company was $288,126 and $265,880, respectively, for which our asset coverage was 311.1% and 321.7%, respectively. The SBA debentures are excluded from the definition “senior securities” in the asset coverage requirement applicable to the Company under the 1940 Act pursuant to exemptive relief granted to us by the SEC on June 30, 2014. The asset coverage ratio for a class of senior securities representing indebtedness is calculated as our consolidated total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, divided by total senior securities representing indebtedness. Interest and Financing Expenses Interest and fees related to the Company’s debt for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 which are included in interest and financing expenses on the consolidated statements of operations, were as follows:

Realized Losses on Extinguishment of Debt During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company prepaid $35,000 of SBA debentures which were scheduled to mature on dates ranging from 2026 to 2027. The Company did not prepay SBA debentures during three months ended March 31, 2023. As a result of the prepayments, the Company recognized realized losses on extinguishment of debt of $521 and zero equal to the write-off of the related unamortized deferred financing costs, during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Deferred Financing Costs Deferred financing costs are amortized into interest and financing expenses on the consolidated statements of operations, using the effective interest method, over the term of the respective financing instrument.
