 148,714 shares of our common stock under our common stock "at-the-market" program ("2024 Common Stock ATM Program") for gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million. During the year ended March 31, 2024, we issued the 8.00% 2028 Notes for gross proceeds of $74.8 million and sold 3,097,162 shares of our common stock under our common stock "at-the-market" program ("2022 Common Stock ATM Program") for gross proceeds of approximately $44.5 million. Refer to “Liquidity and Capital Resources — Revolving Line of Credit” for further discussion of the Credit Facility and to “Liquidity and Capital Resources — Equity — Common Stock” further discussion of our common stock.

Although we have been able to access the capital markets historically, market conditions may continue to affect the trading price of our common stock and thus our ability to finance new investments through the issuance of common equity. On December 31, 2024, the closing market price of our common stock was $13.25 per share, representing a 0.4% discount to our net asset value (“NAV”) of $13.30 per share as of December 31, 2024. When our common stock trades below NAV, our ability to issue additional equity is constrained by provisions of the 1940 Act, which generally prohibits the issuance and sale of our common stock at an issuance price below the then-current NAV per share without stockholder approval, other than through sales to our then-existing stockholders pursuant to a rights offering.

Regulatory Compliance

Our ability to seek external debt financing, to the extent that it is available under current market conditions, is further subject to the asset coverage limitations of the 1940 Act, which require us to have asset coverage (as defined in Sections 18 and 61 of the 1940 Act) of at least 150% on each of our senior securities representing indebtedness and our senior securities that are stock (such as our previously outstanding series of term preferred stock).

On April 10, 2018, our Board of Directors, including a “required majority” (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) thereof, approved the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act. As a result, our asset coverage requirements for senior securities changed from 200% to 150%, effective as of April
