PIK interest represents contractually deferred interest that is added to the principal balance of the debt security and compounded if not paid on a current basis.  PIK may be prepaid by either contract or the portfolio company's choice, but generally is paid at the end of the loan term.  Rates on preferred stock and preferred LLC interests, where applicable, represent the contractual rate.

MCG Capital Corporation


Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


NOTE 1—DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION


These Condensed  Consolidated Financial Statements present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of MCG Capital Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.  The terms “we,” “our,” “us” and “MCG” refer to MCG Capital Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.


We are a solutions-focused commercial finance company that provides capital and advisory services to middle-market companies throughout the United States.  We are an internally managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company that elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940 , as amended, or the 1940 Act.  Our organization includes the following categories of subsidiaries:


Wholly Owned Special-Purpose Financing Subsidiary —This subsidiary is a bankruptcy remote, special-purpose entity to which we transfer certain loans.  The financing subsidiary, in turn, transfers the loans to a Delaware statutory trust.  For accounting purposes, the transfers of the loans to the Delaware statutory trust is structured as an on-balance sheet securitization.


Small Business Investment Subsidiaries —We own Solutions Capital I, L.P., or Solutions Capital, a wholly owned subsidiary licensed by the United States Small Business Administration, or SBA, which operates as a small business investment company, or SBIC, under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958 , as amended, or SBIC Act.  In March 2011, we formed another wholly owned subsidiary, Solutions Capital II, L. P. in order to apply for a second SBIC license.  In September 2012, we submitted documentation to the SBA in support of a potential SBIC license for Solutions Capital II, L.P.  In February 2013, we received a letter from the SBA inviting us to file a formal license application, which we submitted to the SBA in March 2013 and was accepted by the SBA in May 2013.  Neither receipt of such an invitation nor acceptance of the application from the SBA assures an applicant that the SBA will grant the additional license in any specified time period or at all.  MCG is also the sole member of Solutions Capital G.P., LLC, which acts as the general partner of Solutions Capital and Solutions Capital II, L.P.


Taxable Subsidiaries — We currently qualify as a regulated investment company, or RIC, for federal income tax purposes and, therefore, are not required to pay corporate income taxes on any income or gains that we distribute to our stockholders.  We have certain wholly owned taxable subsidiaries, or Taxable Subsidiaries, each of which holds one or more portfolio investments listed on our Consolidated Schedules of Investments .  The purpose of these Taxable Subsidiaries is to permit us to hold portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies, or LLCs, or other forms of pass-through entities and still satisfy the RIC tax requirement that at least 90% of our gross revenue for income tax purposes must consist of investment income.  Absent the Taxable Subsidiaries, a portion of the gross income of any LLC or other pass-through entity portfolio investment would flow through directly to us, and be included in the calculation of the 90% test.  To the extent that such income did not consist of investment income, it could jeopardize our ability to qualify as a RIC and, therefore, cause us to incur significant federal income taxes.  The income of the LLCs or other pass-through entities owned by Taxable Subsidiaries is taxed to the Taxable Subsidiaries and does not flow through to us, thereby helping us preserve our RIC status and resultant tax advantages.  We do not consolidate the Taxable Subsidiaries for income tax purposes and they may generate income tax expense because of the Taxable Subsidiaries’ ownership of the portfolio companies.  We reflect any such income tax expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations .


The accompanying financial statements reflect the consolidated accounts of MCG and the following subsidiaries:  Solutions Capital; Solutions Capital II, L.P.; Solutions Capital G.P., LLC; and MCG’s special-purpose financing subsidiary, MCG Finance VII, LLC.


BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND USE OF ESTIMATES


These unaudited financial statements and the accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to Regulation S-X under the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended.  We believe we have made all necessary adjustments so that the financial statements are presented fairly and that all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  We eliminated all significant intercompany balances.  In accordance with Article 6 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933 , as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended, we do not consolidate portfolio company investments, including those in which we have a controlling interest.  Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.  Further, in connection with the preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial


12


---



Statements , we have evaluated subsequent events that occurred after the balance sheet date as of June 30, 2013 through the date these financial statements were issued.


Preparing financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes.  Although we believe the estimates and assumptions used in preparing these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes are reasonable, actual results could differ materially.


Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.  You should read these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.


NOTE 2—INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO


The following table summarizes the composition of our investment portfolio at cost and fair value:

Our debt instruments bear contractual interest rates ranging from 2.5% to 15.0% , a portion of which may be in the form of paid-in-kind interest, or PIK.  As of June 30, 2013 , approximately 72.8% of the fair value of our loan portfolio had variable interest rates, based on a London Interbank Offer Rate, or LIBOR, benchmark or the prime rate, and 27.2% of the fair value of our loan portfolio had fixed interest rates.  As of June 30, 2013 , approximately 61.6% of our loan portfolio, at fair value, had LIBOR floors between 1.0% and 3.0% on a LIBOR-based index and prime floors between 2.5% and 6.0% .  At origination, our loans generally have four- to six-year stated maturities.  Borrowers typically pay an origination fee based on a percent of the total commitment and a fee on undrawn commitments.


When one of our loans becomes more than 90 days past due, or if we otherwise do not expect the customer to be able to service its debt and other obligations, we will, as a general matter, place the loan on non-accrual status and generally will cease recognizing interest income on that loan until all principal and interest has been brought current through payment or due to a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible.  However, we may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.  If the fair value of a loan is below cost, we may cease recognizing PIK interest and/or the accretion of a discount on the debt investment until such time that the fair value equals or exceeds cost.

NOTE 3—FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT


We account for our investments in portfolio companies under Accounting Standard Codification Topic 820—Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820.  ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value.  ASC 820 defines “fair value” as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  This fair value definition focuses on exit price in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs.


Fair Value Hierarchy


ASC 820 establishes the following three-level hierarchy, based upon the transparency of inputs to the fair value measurement of an asset or liability as of the measurement date:


ASC 820 Fair Value HierarchyInputs to Fair Value MethodologyLevel 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilitiesLevel 2Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market informationLevel 3Pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption is unobservable or when the estimation of fair value requires significant management judgment


We categorize a financial instrument in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to its fair value measurement.  In the event that transfers between these levels were to occur in the future, we would recognize those transfers as of the ending balance sheet date, based on changes in the use of observable and unobservable inputs utilized to perform the valuation for the period.

As of June 30, 2013 , we had no investments that had quoted market prices in active markets which we would categorize as Level 1 investments under ASC 820.  Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value and are Level 1 assets.


Valuation Methodologies and Procedures


As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control.  Control investments include both majority-owned control investments and non-majority owned control investments.  A majority-owned control investment represents a security in which we own more than 50% of the voting interest of the portfolio company and generally control its board of directors.  A non-majority owned control investment represents a security in which we own 25% to 50% of the portfolio company’s voting equity.  As of each of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, our portfolio contained zero non-majority control investments.  Non-control investments represent both affiliate and non-affiliate securities for which we do not have a controlling interest.  Affiliate investments represent securities in which we own 5% to 25% of the portfolio company’s equity.  Non-affiliate investments represent securities in which we own less than 5% of the portfolio company’s equity.

|• | Majority-Owned Control Investments—Majority-owned control investments comprised10.1%of our investment portfolio as ofJune 30, 2013.  Market quotations are not readily available for these investments; therefore, we use a combination of market and income approaches to determine their fair value.  Typically, private companies are bought and sold based on multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited cases, book value.  Generally, we apply multiples that we observe for other comparable companies to relevant financial data for the portfolio company in question.  Also, in a limited number of cases, we use income approaches to determine fair value, based on our projections of the discounted future free cash flows that the portfolio company will likely generate, as well as industry derived capital costs.  Our valuation approaches for majority-owned investments estimate the value upon a hypothetical sale or exit and then allocates such value to the investment's securities in order of their relative liquidation preference.  In addition, we assume that any outstanding debt or other securities that are senior to our securities are required to be repaid at par.  These valuation approaches consider the value of our ability to control the portfolio company’s capital structure and the timing of a potential exit.

non-control equity investments, we use the same market and income approaches used to value our control investments.  For non-control debt investments for which no quoted prices are available, we estimate fair value using a market-yield approach based on the expected future cash flows discounted at the loans’ effective interest rates, based on our estimate of current market rates.  We may adjust discounted cash flow calculations to reflect other market conditions or the perceived credit risk of the borrower.  In the event the fair value of a non-control debt investment, as determined by the same market or income approach used to value our control investments, is below our cost, we estimate the fair value using the market or income approach.

|• | Thinly Traded and Over-the-Counter Securities—Generally, we value securities that are traded in the over-the-counter market or on a stock exchange at the average of the prevailing bid and ask prices on the date of the relevant period end.  However, we may apply a discount to the market value of restricted or thinly-traded public securities to reflect the impact that these restrictions have on the value of these securities.  We review factors, including the trading volume, total securities outstanding and our percentage ownership of securities to determine whether the trading levels are active (Level 1) or inactive (Level 2).  As ofJune 30, 2013, these securities represented10.5%of our investment portfolio.  We utilize independent pricing services to arrive at certain of our fair value estimates.  The majority of our level 2 investments are senior debt investments that are secured and collateralized.  To corroborate “bid/ask” quotes from independent pricing services we perform a market-yield approach to validate prices obtained or obtain other evidence.

Our valuation analyses incorporate the impact that key events could have on the securities’ values, including public and private mergers and acquisitions, purchase transactions, public offerings, letters of intent and subsequent debt or equity sales.  Our valuation analyses also include key external data, such as market changes and industry valuation benchmarks.  We also use independent valuation firms to provide additional data points for our quarterly valuation analyses.  Our general practice is to obtain an independent valuation or review of valuation at least once per year for each portfolio investment that had a fair value in excess of $5.0 million, unless the fair value has otherwise been derived through a sale of some or all of our investment in the portfolio company or is a new investment made within the last twelve months.  In total, as of June 30, 2013 , we either obtained a valuation or review from an independent firm, considered new investments made or used market quotes in the preceding twelve-month period for 98.9% of our investment portfolio, calculated on a fair value basis.


The majority of the valuations performed by the independent valuation firms utilize proprietary models and inputs.  We have used, and intend to continue to use, independent valuation firms to provide additional support for our internal analyses.


Our board of directors sets our valuation policies and procedures and determines the fair value of our investments.  The investment and valuation committee of our board of directors meets at least quarterly with our executive management to review management’s recommendations of fair value of our investments.  Our board of directors considers our valuations, as well as the independent valuations and reviews, in its determination of the fair value of our investments.


Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and such differences could be material.  In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to differ from the valuations currently assigned.


Changes in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements


We classify securities in the Level 3 valuation hierarchy based on the significance of the unobservable factors to the overall fair value measurement.  Our fair value approach for Level 3 securities primarily uses unobservable inputs, but may also include observable, actively quoted components derived from external sources.  Accordingly, the gains and losses in the table below include fair value changes due, in part, to observable factors.  Additionally, we transfer investments in and out of Level 1, 2 and 3 securities as of the ending balance sheet date, based on changes in the use of observable and unobservable inputs utilized to perform the valuation for the period.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, 2 or 3.

Unrealized (Depreciation) Appreciation of Level 3 Investments


The following table summarizes the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) that we recognized on those investments for which we determined fair value using unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 :

Significant Unobservable Inputs


Our investment portfolio is not composed of homogeneous debt and equity securities that can be valued with a small number of inputs.  Rather, the majority of our investment portfolio is composed of complex debt and equity securities with distinct contract terms and conditions.  As such, our valuation of each investment in our portfolio is unique and complex, often factoring in numerous different inputs, including the historical and forecasted financial and operational performance of the portfolio company, projected cash flows, market multiples, comparable market transactions, the priority of our securities compared with those of other investors, credit risk, interest rates, independent valuations and reviews and other inputs too numerous to list quantitatively herein.


The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs in the fair value measurements of our level 3 investments by category of investment and valuation technique as of June 30, 2013 :

NOTE 5—BORROWINGS


As of June 30, 2013 , we reported $204.9 million of borrowings on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost.  The following table summarizes our borrowing facilities, the facility amounts and amounts outstanding.

The reinvestment period for this facility ended on July 20, 2011 and we will use all future principal collections from collateral in the facility to repay the securitized debt.(c)Amount outstanding excludes $5.0 million of notes that we repurchased in December 2008 for $1.6 million and $8.0 million of notes that we repurchased in April 2010 for $4.4 million.  As part of the consolidation process, we eliminated the notes that MCG, the parent company, purchased.(d)Amount outstanding excludes $10.1 million of notes that we repurchased in December 2008 for $2.4 million and $7.5 million of notes that we repurchased in January 2009 for $2.1 million.  As part of the consolidation process, we eliminated the notes that MCG, the parent company, purchased.


We estimate that the fair value of these borrowings as of June 30, 2013 was approximately $207.4 million, based on market data and current interest rates.  This fair value is estimated from market quotes in an inactive market provided by an independent pricing service for $53.2 million of our borrowings (level 2) and a market-yield approach for $154.2 million (level 3) of our borrowings.


As a BDC, we are not permitted to incur indebtedness or issue senior securities, including preferred stock, unless immediately after such borrowing we have an asset coverage for total borrowings (excluding borrowings by our SBIC facility) of at least 200%.  In addition, we may not be permitted to declare any cash dividend or other distribution on

our outstanding common shares, or purchase any such shares, unless, at the time of such declaration or purchase, we have an asset coverage ratio of at least 200% after deducting the amount of such dividend, distribution or purchase price.  If we are unable to meet this asset coverage requirement, we may not be able to incur additional debt.  As of June 30, 2013 , our ratio of total assets to total borrowings and other senior securities was 768% .


Each of our borrowing facilities has certain financial covenants and non-financial covenants.  We were in compliance with the covenants as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 .


We have funded our current secured borrowing debt facility through a bankruptcy remote, special-purpose, wholly owned subsidiary.  Therefore, this subsidiary’s assets may not be available to our creditors.  We continue to service those portfolio investments that we use as collateral in our secured borrowing facility.


The following table summarizes repayments of our borrowings based on the final legal maturity or the contractual principal collections of the outstanding loans that comprise the collateral, where applicable.  Actual repayments could differ significantly due to future prepayments by our borrowers, modifications of our borrowers’ existing loan agreements, and monetizations.

SBIC Debentures


In December 2004, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Solutions Capital.  Solutions Capital has a license from the SBA to operate as an SBIC under the SBIC Act.  The license permits Solutions Capital to borrow up to $150.0 million from the SBA, which is the maximum amount of outstanding leverage available to single-license SBIC companies.


In March 2011, we formed another wholly owned subsidiary, Solutions Capital II, L. P. in order to apply for a second SBIC license.  In September 2012, we submitted documentation to the SBA in support of a potential SBIC license for Solutions Capital II, L.P.  In February 2013, we received a letter from the SBA inviting us to file a formal license application, which we submitted to the SBA in March 2013 and was accepted by the SBA in May 2013.  Neither receipt of such an invitation nor acceptance of the application from the SBA assures an applicant that the SBA will grant the additional license in any specified time period or at all.  Currently, a second SBIC license would grant us the ability to borrow up to an additional $75 million from the SBA, or two times the amount of statutory equity capital we invest in Solutions Capital II, L.P.  If approved and depending on available capital, we intend to fund the entire $37.5 million using unrestricted cash.  In the second quarter of 2013, we invested $10.0 million of unrestricted cash in Solutions Capital II, L.P. and  funded a small business loan to Dorsey School of Business Holdings, Inc, or Dorsey.  We also received pre-licensing investment approval from the SBA for the Dorsey investment which, if closed in accordance with our pre-investment documentation, will count toward the required statutory capital of $37.5 million in our second SBIC.


To realize the full $150.0 million in borrowings for which we have received approval to date under the SBIC program, we have funded a total of $75.0 million to Solutions Capital.  As of each of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , Solutions Capital had borrowed $150.0 million.  We are permitted to use these funds to provide debt and equity capital to qualifying small businesses.  However, we may not use these borrowings to provide additional financing to certain companies that are currently in our portfolio without SBA approval.  In addition, we may not use these funds to provide working capital to MCG, Solutions Capital's parent company.

As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , we had $237.8 million and $187.9 million, respectively, of investments in our SBIC and we had $5.5 million and $48.3 million, respectively, of restricted cash to be used for additional investments in our SBIC.


As of June 30, 2013 , Solutions Capital had borrowings outstanding as summarized in the following table:

In October 2008, we received exemptive relief from the SEC which allows us to exclude debt issued by Solutions Capital from the calculation of our consolidated BDC asset coverage ratio.


MCG Commercial Loan Trust 2006-1


In April 2006, we completed a $500.0 million debt securitization through the MCG Commercial Loan Trust 2006-1, or 2006-1 Trust, a wholly owned subsidiary.  The 2006-1 Trust issued $106.25 million of Class A-1 Notes, $50.0 million of Class A-2 Notes, $85.0 million of Class A-3 Notes, $58.75 million of Class B Notes, $45.0 million of Class C Notes and $47.5 million of Class D Notes.  The respective classes of notes were issued with interest at LIBOR plus 0.33%, 0.35%, 0.33%, 0.58%, 1.05% and 2.25%.  As of June 30, 2013 , we have repaid all of the Class A and Class B Notes.


All of the notes are secured by the assets of the 2006-1 Trust. The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets securitized under this facility as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 :

We retain all of the equity in the securitization.  The securitization included a five-year reinvestment period, which ended in July 2011.


The outstanding Class B, Class C and Class D Notes are term notes.  The Class A-2 Notes initially provided for a five-year revolving period, which has expired.  Therefore, we may not draw on the Class A-2 Notes.  The Class A-3 Notes were a delayed draw class of secured notes, which were drawn in full between July 2006 and April 2007.  The pool of commercial loans in the trust must meet certain requirements, such as asset mix and concentration, collateral coverage, term, agency rating, minimum coupon, minimum spread and sector diversity requirements.

Bank of America Unsecured Revolver


In November 2012, we obtained an unsecured revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. in the principal amount of $20.0 million, or Bank of America Unsecured Revolver.  Advances under the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver will bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum and will expire in November 2014.  As of June 30, 2013 , there were no borrowings outstanding on the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver.


The Bank of America Unsecured Revolver is subject to certain collateral requirements and financial covenants.  Included among them are requirements that we maintain a ratio of all unencumbered assets to outstanding amounts under the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver of at least four-to-one, as well as a ratio of unencumbered cash and senior portfolio loans to outstanding amounts under the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver of at least three-to-one.  The Bank of America Unsecured Revolver may be prepaid at any time, and is required to be paid in full for a period of at least five consecutive calendar days during each quarter.


NOTE 6—CAPITAL STOCK


We have one class of common stock and one class of preferred stock authorized.  Our board of directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of shares of preferred stock in one or more series, establish the number of shares to be included in each such series and establish the designations, voting powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, subject to the 1940 Act.


STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM


On January 17, 2012, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $35.0 million and we have provided our stockholders with notice of our intention to repurchase shares of our common stock in accordance with 1940 Act requirements.  Under the program, we are authorized to repurchase shares in open market transactions, including through block purchases, depending on prevailing market conditions and other factors.  The repurchase program may be extended, modified or discontinued at any time for any reason.  The program does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares, and all repurchases will be made in accordance with SEC Rule 10b-18, which sets certain restrictions on the method, timing, price and volume of stock repurchases.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we repurchased 504,639 shares of our common stock at a weighted average purchase price of $4.50 per share, which was a 13.1% discount from our quarterly net asset value per share.


We have received an exemptive order from the SEC to permit us to issue restricted shares of our common stock as part of the compensation packages for certain of our employees and directors.  Awards under the Third Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Restricted Stock Plan (discussed in Note 7—Share-Based Compensation below) must comply with all aspects of the SEC's order, including the following:

|• | the total number of shares that may be outstanding as restricted shares under all of our compensation plans may not exceed 10% of the total number of our shares of common stock authorized and outstanding at any time.

We have requested the assurance of the staff of the Division of Investment Management that it would not recommend enforcement action to the SEC under the 1940 Act or Rule 17d-1 thereunder if we engage in a stock repurchase program and agree not to issue additional restricted stock under any compensation plan unless such issuance, together with all restricted stock outstanding under all compensation plans, does not exceed 10% of our outstanding common stock at the time of such issuance less the total number of shares previously issued, in the aggregate, pursuant to all compensatory plans.  We have received no assurance or indication from the SEC that we will receive such relief, or of the timeframe in which we would receive any relief, should it ultimately be granted. Although there were 1,235,456 shares of our common stock available for issuance under our Third Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Restricted Stock Plan,  as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, an aggregate of 41,487 and 107,924 shares of restricted stock, respectively, could be issued under our Third Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Restricted Stock Plan and our Third Amended and Restated 2006 Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock Plan before reaching the 10% threshold set forth in the SEC's order.  The decrease in shares that could be issued under the restricted stock plans is attributable to the shares we repurchased under our stock repurchase program.

NOTE 7—SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION


EMPLOYEE SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION


Third Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Restricted Stock Plan


From time to time, we award shares of restricted common stock to employees under our Third  Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, or the 2006 Plan, which our stockholders initially approved in June 2006.  In May 2010, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2006 Plan increasing the number of shares we may award from 3,500,000 to 6,050,000 shares.  Shares of restricted common stock awarded under the 2006 Plan may be subject to the employees' meeting service or performance conditions specified at the time of award.  The award date is the date on which the shares are awarded by the Compensation Committee of our board of directors, while the fair value of the respective stock award is based on the closing price of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Select Market on the award date.  We amortize restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period and report this expense as amortization of employee restricted stock awards on our Consolidated Statements of Operations .


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , no shares of restricted stock were issued under the 2006 Plan.  During six months ended June 30, 2012 , we issued 1,000,000 shares of restricted stock under the 2006 Plan with a weighted-average fair value per share of common stock at the award date of $4.43.


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recognized $0.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to share-based compensation awards.  As of June 30, 2013 , all the restricted share awards for which forfeiture provisions had not lapsed carried non-forfeitable dividend rights to the holder of the restricted shares.  As of June 30, 2013 , we had $3.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted common stock awarded to employees.  We expect to recognize these costs over the remaining weighted-average requisite service period of 2.5 years.


Non-Employee Director Share-Based Compensation


During June 2006, our stockholders initially approved the 2006 Non-Employee Director Restricted Stock Plan, which was subsequently amended and restated and which we refer to as the 2006 Non-Employee Plan.  In May 2010, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2006 Non-Employee Plan that increased the number of shares we may award to non-employee members of our board of directors from 100,000 to 150,000 shares.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we awarded 15,000 and 22,500 shares, respectively, of restricted common stock to non-employee directors.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recognized less than $0.1  million of compensation costs related to share-based awards to non-employee directors.  We include this compensation cost in general and administrative expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations .  As of June 30, 2013 , we had $0.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted common stock awarded to non-employee directors, which we expect to recognize over the remaining weighted-average requisite service period of 2.2 years.

NOTE 8—CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING


On August 1, 2011, our board of directors approved a plan to reduce our workforce by 42%, including 22 current employees and 5 resignations.  Affected employees received severance pay, continuation of benefits and, for employees who had been awarded restricted stock, additional lapsing of restrictions associated with restricted stock awards.  We have accounted for these costs in accordance with ASC 420-10-Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations .


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we incurred $12,000 of restructuring expenses related to severance obligations, which we reported as a separate line item on our Consolidated Statements of Operations .


We included liabilities associated with our restructuring in other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets .  The following table summarizes changes in the balance of our restructuring liabilities from January 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013 :

NOTE 9—INCOME TAXES


As a RIC, we are taxed under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.  As such, our income generally is not taxable to the extent we distribute it to stockholders and we meet certain qualification tests as outlined in the Internal Revenue Code.  However, income from certain investments owned by our wholly owned subsidiaries is subject to federal, state and local income taxes.  On a continuing basis, we monitor distribution requirements in order to comply with Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.


We use the asset and liability method to account for our Taxable Subsidiaries' income taxes.  Using this method, we recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.  In addition, we recognize deferred tax benefits associated with net operating carryforwards that we may use to offset future tax obligations.  We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which we expect to recover or settle those temporary differences.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we recorded an income tax provision of less than $0.1 million, which was primarily attributable to flow-through taxable income on certain investments held by our subsidiaries.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred a $0.3 million income tax provision, which was primarily attributable to flow-through taxable income on certain investments held by our subsidiaries.


From December 2001 through June 30, 2013 , we declared aggregate per share distributions of $13.64 .  Each year, we mail statements on Form 1099-DIV to our stockholders that identify whether we made distributions from ordinary income, net capital gains on the sale of securities, which are each taxable distributions, and/or a return of paid-in-capital surplus, which is a nontaxable distribution.  A portion of our distributions may represent a return of capital to our stockholders, to the extent that the total distributions paid in a given year exceed current and accumulated taxable

earnings and profits.  All or a portion of the distributions that we paid to stockholders during fiscal years 2012, 2011, 2008, 2006, 2005, 2004 and 2003 represented a return of capital.


We determine the tax attributes of our distributions as of the end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid during the full year.  Therefore, a determination of tax attributes made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of distributions for a full year.  If we determined the tax attributes of our distributions as of June 30, 2013 , 74% would be from ordinary income and 26% would be a return of capital.  Future distributions will take into account the requirements for us to distribute the majority of our taxable income to fulfill our distribution requirements as a RIC, together with an assessment of our current and forecasted gains and losses recognized or to be recognized for tax purposes, portfolio transactional events, liquidity, cash earnings and our asset coverage ratio at the time of such decision.


On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 , or the Modernization Act, was enacted, which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies.  The changes are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment.  One of the more prominent changes addresses capital loss carryforwards.  Under the Modernization Act, each RIC will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period.  However, any losses incurred during those subsequent taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date.  As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused.  Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as permitted under previous regulation.


Taxable income differs from net income recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, because of temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition.


Taxable income generally excludes unrealized gains and losses from appreciation or depreciation of our investments, which are included in GAAP net income.  Further, amounts recognized for financial reporting purposes may differ from amounts included in taxable income due to the accrued dividends on preferred stock, which increase the book basis but not the tax basis of our investments, and non-accrual interest on loans, which increase the tax basis but not book basis.

NOTE 10—EARNINGS PER SHARE


The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 :

Holders of unvested shares of our issued and outstanding restricted common stock are eligible to receive non-forfeitable dividends.  As such, these unvested shares are participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing earnings per share in periods with net income.  Pursuant to the two-class method, we report basic and diluted loss per share both inclusive and exclusive of the impact of the participating securities.


NOTE 11—CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS


LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


We are a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business, including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies.  While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.


FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


During the normal course of business, we are party to certain financial instruments, including loans, participations in loans, guarantees, letters of credit and other financial commitments.  We conduct extensive due diligence and, when appropriate, obtain collateral to limit our credit risk.  Generally, these commitments have fixed expiration dates or other


31


---



termination clauses, which may require payment of a fee by the counterparty.  We expect many of these commitments will not be fully used before they expire; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.


We do not report the unused portions of these commitments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets .  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , we had $19.2 million and $23.0 million, respectively, of outstanding unused loan commitments.  We estimate that as of each of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , the fair value of these commitments was $0.1 million based on the fees that we currently charge to enter into similar arrangements, taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , we had no outstanding guarantees or standby letters of credit.


LEASE OBLIGATIONS


We lease our headquarters and certain other facilities and equipment under non-cancelable operating and capital leases which expire through 2014.  The lease on our former headquarters in Arlington, Virginia expired in February 2013.  In August 2012, we entered into a lease agreement for new office space in Arlington, Virginia.  The new lease term is from October 2012 to November 2014 with a base rent of $0.4 million per year.  The base rent will not increase during the term of the lease.  In November 2012, we ceased using our old headquarters and recognized the remaining amounts due under that lease in other liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2012.  As of June 30, 2013 , our obligations for the remaining terms of these leases was $0.6 million , of which $0.4 million will be payable during the next twelve months.

Review Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


The Board of Directors and Stockholders


MCG Capital Corporation


We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of MCG Capital Corporation, including the consolidated schedule of investments, as of June 30, 2013 , the related consolidated statements of operations for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , and the related consolidated statements of changes in net assets, cash flows and financial highlights for the six -month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 .  These financial statements are the responsibility of MCG Capital Corporation’s management.


We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.


Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of MCG Capital Corporation as of December 31, 2012 , including the consolidated schedule of investments, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, cash flows, and financial highlights for the year then ended (not presented herein), and we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements in our report dated March 5, 2013.  In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 , including the consolidated schedule of investments, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the Selected Financial Data and our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties.  These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, projections, intentions, goals, strategies, plans, prospects and the beliefs and assumptions of our management including, without limitation: our expectations regarding our results of operations, including revenues, net operating income, net investment losses and general and administrative expenses and the factors that may affect such results; our expectations regarding the approval process for a second SBIC license; our intentions with respect to funding in full our equity portion of a second SBIC license using unrestricted cash; our expectations regarding the full use before expiration of certain financial instruments, including loans, participations in loans, guarantees, letters of credit and other financial commitments; our expectations regarding monetizations during 2013 and the use proceeds of such monetizations; our expectations with regard to 2013 origination pacing and anticipated aggregate investment levels by year-end; our expectation that we will substantially deploy our cash on-hand in 2013; our intentions to repurchase shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program and purchase debt for cash in open markets purchases and/or privately-negotiated transactions; the sufficiency of liquidity to meet 2013 operating requirements, as well as new origination opportunities and potential dividend distributions; the use of our available liquidity to pay dividends to our stockholders and to repurchase our common stock in the open market under our stock repurchase program; estimated liquidity for repayment of our borrowing facilities from a number of sources, including cash on-hand, the maturity or monetization of our investment portfolio, other borrowing facilities and equity issuances, and from other borrowing arrangements; our decisions to make dividend distributions after taking into account our distribution requirements as a RIC, together with an assessment of our current and forecasted gains and losses recognized or to be recognized for tax purposes, portfolio transactional events, liquidity, cash earnings and our asset coverage ratio; our use of independent valuation firms to provide additional support for our internal analyses; our expectations regarding the outcome of legal proceedings incidental to our business; general market conditions; the state of the economy and other factors. Forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “could increase the likelihood,” “hope,” “target,” “project,” “goals,” “potential,” “predict,” “might,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “is planned,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “will enable,” “would be expected,” “look forward,” “may provide,” “would” or similar terms, variations of such terms or the negative of those terms. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict. Important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated or implied by forward-looking statements. Such factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those risk factors discussed in Item IA of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be incorrect.  In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.  You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.


DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


We are a solutions-focused commercial finance company that provides capital and advisory services to middle-market companies throughout the United States. Generally, our portfolio companies use our capital investment to finance acquisitions, recapitalizations, refinance existing debt, buyouts, organic growth, working capital and other general corporate purposes.


We are an internally managed, non-diversified, closed-end investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended , or the 1940 Act.  As a BDC we must meet various regulatory tests, which include investing at least 70% of our total assets in private or thinly traded public U.S.-based companies and limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness unless immediately after such borrowing we have an asset coverage for total borrowings (excluding small business investment company, or SBIC, debt) of at least 200% (i.e., the amount of debt generally may not exceed 50% of the value of our assets).


In addition, we have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or RIC, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.  In order to continue to qualify as a RIC for federal income tax purposes and obtain favorable RIC tax treatment, we must meet certain requirements, including certain minimum


35


---



distribution requirements.  If we satisfy these requirements, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income we distribute to our stockholders as distributions, allowing us to substantially reduce or eliminate our corporate-level tax liability.  From time to time, our wholly owned subsidiaries may execute transactions that trigger corporate-level tax liabilities.  In such cases, we recognize a tax provision in the period when it becomes more likely than not that the taxable event will occur.

|- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | Reduced Leverage— From March 31, 2013 to June 30, 2013, we reduced our outstanding borrowings under our MCG Commercial Loan Trust, or 2006-1 Trust, by $28.1 million, reducing our borrowings under our 2006-1 Trust from $83.0 million to $54.9 million as of June 30, 2013.  In July 2013, we further reduced our borrowings under our 2006-1 Trust by $25.8 million from $54.9 million to $29.1 million.

OUTLOOK


Throughout the remainder of 2013, we anticipate that we will monetize approximately $30 million to $50 million of investments.  In addition, we expect to use part of the proceeds from these monetizations to reduce the borrowings in our 2006-1 Trust to approximately $20 million to $25 million.  We expect to originate new loans and equity co-investments sufficient to end the year with total investments of $500 million to $530 million (calculated at fair value).


At June 30, 2013, including unrestricted cash and restricted cash from our SBIC, we had $96.6 million of cash on-hand to make new investments.  Assuming continued stability in the market, actionable opportunities that meet our underwriting standards, portfolio granularity requirements and no material repayments beyond maturities that we are aware of as of June 30, 2013, we anticipate that we will substantially deploy our cash on-hand in 2013.


In January 2012,  our board of directors authorized a $35 million stock repurchase program.  During the second quarter of 2013, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under such program. We may elect to make open market purchases under the stock repurchase program in the second half of 2013, depending on prevailing market conditions and other factors.  As of June 30, 2013, we had repurchased and retired an aggregate of 6,686,685 common shares at a weighted average purchase price of $4.40 per share.


ACCESS TO CAPITAL AND LIQUIDITY


At June 30, 2013 , we had $91.3 million of cash and cash equivalents available for general corporate purposes, as well as $5.3 million of cash in restricted accounts related to our SBIC that we may use to fund new investments in the SBIC and $2.7 million of restricted cash held in escrow.  In addition, we had $16.7 million of cash in securitization accounts, that may only be used to make interest and principal payments on our securitized borrowings or distributions to MCG in accordance with the indenture agreement of the 2006-1 Trust.

At June 30, 2013 , cash in securitization accounts included $14.4 million in the principal collections account of our 2006-1 Trust.  In July 2013, we used $36.2 million of securitized cash, including $21.8 million collected in July 2013, to repay borrowings of our 2006-1 Trust, a pro rata portion of which we received for the principal we own.  The reinvestment period for this facility ended on July 20, 2011 and all subsequent principal collections received have been, and will be, used to repay the securitized debt.  At June 30, 2013 , the net outstanding borrowings under the 2006-1 Trust were $54.9 million , which was reduced to $29.1 million in July 2013.


At June 30, 2013 , $150.0 million of United States Small Business Administration, or SBA, borrowings were outstanding, the maximum available under our current SBIC license.


At June 30, 2013 , we had full access to our $20.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A.


PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITY


As of June 30, 2013 , the fair value of our investment portfolio was $456.0 million , which represents a $21.7 million , or 4.5% , decrease from the $477.7 million fair value as of December 31, 2012 .  The following sections describe the composition of our investment portfolio as of June 30, 2013 and key changes in our portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2013 .

Our debt instruments bear contractual interest rates ranging from 2.5% to 15.0% , a portion of which may be in the form of PIK.  As of June 30, 2013 , approximately 72.8% of the fair value of our loan portfolio had variable interest rates, based on either the London Interbank Offer Rate, or LIBOR, or the prime rate, and 27.2% of the fair value of our loan portfolio had fixed interest rates.  As of June 30, 2013 , approximately 61.6% of our loan portfolio, at fair value, had LIBOR floors between 1.0% and 3.0% on a LIBOR based index and prime floors between 2.5% and 6.0% .  At origination, our loans generally have four- to six-year stated maturities.  Borrowers typically pay an origination fee based on a percentage of the total commitment and a fee on undrawn commitments.

The proceeds from these monetizations correlated closely with the most recently reported fair value of the associated investments.


ASSET QUALITY


Asset quality is generally a function of portfolio company performance and economic conditions, as well as our underwriting and ongoing management of our investment portfolio.  In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, we use the following investment rating system to characterize and monitor our expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio:


Investment RatingSummary Description1Capital gain expected or realized2Full return of principal and interest or dividend expected with customer performing in accordance with plan3Full return of principal and interest or dividend expected, but customer requires closer monitoring4Some loss of interest or dividend expected, but still expect an overall positive internal rate of return on the investment5Loss of interest or dividend and some loss of principal investment expected, which would result in an overall negative internal rate of return on the investment

When one of our loans becomes more than 90 days past due, or if we otherwise do not expect the customer to be able to service its debt and other obligations, we will, as a general matter, place all or a portion of the loan on non-accrual status and will cease recognizing interest income on that loan until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible.  However, we may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.  If the fair value of a loan is below cost, we may cease recognizing PIK interest and/or the accretion of a discount on the debt investment until such time that the fair value equals or exceeds cost.


The following table summarizes the cost and fair value of loans more than 90 days past due and loans on non-accrual status:

Results of Operations


The following section compares our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to the three months ended June 30, 2012 .


COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013 AND 2012


The following table summarizes the components of our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 :

TOTAL REVENUE


Total revenue includes interest and dividend income, loan fees, advisory fees and other income.  The following sections describe the reasons for the variances in each major component of our revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2013 from the three months ended June 30, 2012 .


INTEREST INCOME


The level of interest income that we earn depends upon the level of interest-bearing investments outstanding during the period, as well as the weighted-average yield on these investments.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , the total yield on our average debt portfolio at fair value was 12.5% compared to 11.5% during the three months ended June 30, 2012 .  The weighted-average yield varies each period because of changes in the composition of our portfolio of debt investments, changes in stated interest rates, fee accelerations of unearned fees on paid-off/restructured loans and the balance of loans on non-accrual status for which we are not accruing interest.


43


---



The following table shows the various components of the total yield on our average debt portfolio at fair value for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 :


Three months ended June 30,20132012Average 90-day LIBOR0.3%0.5%Spread to average LIBOR on average loan portfolio12.110.7Impact of fee accelerations of unearned fees on paid/restructured loans0.10.6Impact of non-accrual loans—(0.3)Total yield on average loan portfolio12.5%11.5%


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , interest income was $11.2 million , compared to $13.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012 , which represented a $2.6 million , or 18.8% , decrease .  This decrease reflected a $4.3 million decrease in interest income resulting from a 27.6% decrease in our average loan balance.  The decrease in interest income also reflected a decrease of $0.2 million due to interest rate floors, a $0.2 million decrease related to the decrease in LIBOR and a $0.2 million decrease resulting from the net impact of loans that had been on non-accrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2013 that were accruing interest during the three months ended June 30, 2012 .  These decreases were partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in interest income attributable to a 1.6% increase in our net spread to LIBOR.


PIK Income


Interest income includes certain amounts that we have not received in cash, such as PIK interest.  PIK interest represents contractually deferred interest that is added to the principal balance of the loan and compounded if not paid on a current basis.  Borrowers may, in some instances, be required to prepay PIK because of certain contractual provisions or they may choose to prepay; however, more typically, PIK is paid at the end of the loan term.  The following table shows the PIK-related activity for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , at cost :


Three months ended June 30,(in thousands)20132012Beginning PIK loan balance$7,973$16,656PIK interest earned during the period1,4301,535Payments received from PIK loans(67)(7,554)Realized loss—(5,012)Ending PIK loan balance$9,336$5,625


As of June 30, 2013 , all of our PIK loans were accruing interest and, as of June 30, 2012 , we were not accruing interest on $1.0 million of the PIK loans, at cost, shown in the preceding table.  During the three months ended June 30, 2012 , we received payments on PIK loans from eight investments, including $2.9 million from Jet Plastica Investors, LLC, $1.8 million from GSDM Holdings Corp. and $1.3 million from Coastal Sunbelt Holding, Inc.


DIVIDEND INCOME


We accrete dividends on equity investments with stated dividend rates as they are earned, to the extent that we believe the dividends will be paid ultimately and the associated portfolio company has sufficient value to support the accretion.  We recognize dividends on our other equity investments when we receive the dividend payment.  Our dividend income varies from period to period because of changes in the size and composition of our equity investments, the yield from the investments in our equity portfolio and the ability of the portfolio companies to declare and pay dividends.  During each of the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recognized dividend income of $0.9 million .  In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we received payments on accrued dividends of $0.2 million and $4.4 million, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013 , the balance of accrued dividends was $10.7 million.


ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER INCOME


Advisory fees and other income primarily include fees related to prepayment, advisory and management services, equity structuring, syndication, bank interest and other income.  Generally, advisory fees and other income relate to specific transactions or services and, therefore, may vary from period to period depending on the level and types of services provided.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , we earned $0.3 million of advisory fees and other


44


---



income, which represented a $1.8 million , or 85.1% , decrease from the three months ended June 30, 2012 .  This decrease resulted from a decrease in prepayment fees related to loan prepayments in the second quarter of 2012.


TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES


Total operating expenses include interest, employee compensation and general and administrative expenses.  The reasons for these variances are discussed in more detail below.


INTEREST EXPENSE


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , we incurred $2.3 million of interest expense, which represented a $2.2 million , or 49.4% , decrease from the same period in 2012 .  During these respective periods, our average cost to borrow decreased to 4.4% from 5.0% , principally due to a decrease in the amortization of deferred financing costs (to $0.3 million from $2.0 million ) offset by the repayment of securitized debt of our 2006-1 Trust (which carries interest rates ranging from L+0.33% to L+2.25%) and additional borrowings under the SBIC debenture program (which carry a weighted average fixed rate of 4.33%).


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , our averaging borrowings declined to approximately $209.6 million from an average of approximately $362.4 million for the same period in 2012 , which accounted for a $1.5 million reduction in our interest expense.  In addition, interest expense decreased by $1.7 million related to decreased amortization of debt issuance costs and $0.2 million due to a decrease in the average LIBOR rate from 0.47% to 0.28% .  These decreases were offset by $1.1 million attributable to the spread to LIBOR increasing from approximately 2.33% to 3.55% .


We recognized $0.3 million in deferred financing costs during the three months ended June 30, 2013 , down $1.7 million from the same period in 2012 .  The decrease is primarily attributable to $0.8 million in accelerated deferred financing fees related to repayment in full of our SunTrust Warehouse financing facility in the second quarter of 2012.


EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION


Employee compensation expense includes base salaries and benefits, variable annual incentive compensation and amortization of employee stock awards.  During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , our employee compensation expense was $1.9 million , which represented a $1.6 million , or 44.7% , decrease from the same period in June 30, 2012 .  Our salaries and benefits decrease d by $1.2 million , or 44.1% , due to a $0.6 million decrease in incentive compensation and a $0.7 million decrease in salaries and benefits primarily resulting from our operational realignment.  As of June 30, 2013 , we had 21 employees compared to 27 employees as of June 30, 2012 .


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , general and administrative expense was $1.1 million , which represented a $3.2 million , or 74.6% , decrease compared to the same period in 2012 .  In the second quarter of 2012, general and administrative expense included $1.8 million in severance costs.  In addition, general and administrative expense decreased $0.5 million due to reduced occupancy and other costs for our new corporate office space.

NET INVESTMENT GAIN BEFORE INCOME TAX PROVISION


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , we recorded $1.0 million of net investment gains before income tax provision, compared to $12.3 million of net investment losses during the same period in 2012 .  These amounts represent the total of net realized gains and losses, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation), and reversals of unrealized (appreciation) depreciation.  We reverse unrealized (appreciation) depreciation at the time that we realize the gain or loss.

INCOME TAX (BENEFIT) PROVISION


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 , we incurred a $6,000 income tax benefit compared to a $0.3 million income tax provision during the three months ended June 30, 2012 .  The income tax provision for both periods was primarily attributable to flow-through taxable income on certain investments held by our subsidiaries.

TOTAL REVENUE


Total revenue includes interest and dividend income, loan fees, advisory fees and other income.  The following sections describe the reasons for the variances in each major component of our revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2013 from the six months ended June 30, 2012 .


INTEREST INCOME


The level of interest income that we earn depends upon the level of interest-bearing investments outstanding during the period, as well as the weighted-average yield on these investments.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , the total yield on our average debt portfolio at fair value was 12.3% compared to 11.2% during the six months ended June 30, 2012 .  The weighted-average yield varies each period because of changes in the composition of our portfolio of debt investments, changes in stated interest rates, fee accelerations of unearned fees on paid-off/restructured loans and the balance of loans on non-accrual status for which we are not accruing interest.


The following table shows the various components of the total yield on our average debt portfolio at fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 :


Six months ended June 30,20132012Average 90-day LIBOR0.3%0.5%Spread to average LIBOR on average loan portfolio11.910.7Impact of fee accelerations of unearned fees on paid/restructured loans0.10.4Impact of non-accrual loans—(0.4)Total yield on average loan portfolio12.3%11.2%


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , interest income was $22.3 million , compared to $29.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 , which represented a $7.1 million , or 24.2% , decrease .  This decrease reflected a $10.0 million decrease in interest income resulting from a 30.9% decrease in our average loan balance.  The decrease in interest income also reflected a decrease of $0.5 million due to interest rate floors, a $0.6 million decrease related to the decrease in LIBOR and a $0.5 million decrease resulting from the net impact of loans that had been on non-accrual status during the six months ended June 30, 2013 that were accruing interest during the six months ended June 30, 2012 .  These decreases were partially offset by a $4.4 million increase in interest income attributable to a 1.4% increase in our net spread to LIBOR.


PIK Income


The following table shows the PIK-related activity for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , at cost :

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , the payments received from PIK loans included $1.0 million collected in conjunction with the partial repayment of our investment in Education Management, Inc., as well as $0.8 million collected in conjunction with the repayment in full of our investment in NDSSI Holdings, LLC.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012 , we received payments on PIK loans from eight investments, including $2.9 million from Jet Plastica Investors, LLC, $1.8 million from GSDM Holdings Corp. and $1.3 million from Coastal Sunbelt Holding, Inc.


DIVIDEND INCOME


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recognized dividend income of $1.8 million and $2.0 million , respectively.  In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we received payments on accrued

dividends of $0.5 million and $7.8 million, respectively.  As of June 30, 2013 , the balance of accrued dividends was $10.7 million.


ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER INCOME


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we earned $0.8 million of advisory fees and other income, which represented a $1.6 million , or 67.0% , decrease from the six months ended June 30, 2012 .  This decrease resulted from a decrease in prepayment fees related to loan prepayments in the second quarter of 2012.


TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES


Total operating expenses include interest, employee compensation and general and administrative expenses.  The reasons for these variances are discussed in more detail below.


INTEREST EXPENSE


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we incurred $4.7 million of interest expense, which represented a $5.1 million , or 51.9% , decrease from the same period in 2012 .  During these respective periods, our average cost to borrow decreased to 4.2% from 5.0% , principally due to a decrease in the amortization of deferred financing costs (to $0.6 million from $4.5 million ), offset by the repayment of securitized debt of our 2006-1 Trust (which carries interest rates ranging from L+0.33% to L+2.25%) and additional borrowings under the SBIC debenture program (which carry a weighted average fixed rate of 4.33%).


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , our averaging borrowings declined to approximately $222.5 million from an average of approximately $391.0 million for the same period in 2012 , which accounted for a $3.1 million reduction in our interest expense.  In addition, interest expense decreased by $3.9 million related to decreased amortization of debt issuance costs and $0.4 million due to a decrease in the average LIBOR rate from 0.49% to 0.28% .  These decreases were offset by $2.3 million attributable to the spread to LIBOR increasing from approximately 2.19% to 3.35% .


We recognized $0.6 million in deferred financing costs during the six months ended June 30, 2013 , down $4.5 million from the same period in 2012 .  The decrease is primarily attributable to $2.3 million in accelerated deferred financing fees related to the termination of our SunTrust Warehouse financing facility in 2012.


EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION


Employee compensation expense includes base salaries and benefits, variable annual incentive compensation and amortization of employee stock awards.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , our employee compensation expense was $3.7 million , which represented a $4.1 million , or 52.6% , decrease from the same period in June 30, 2012 .  Our salaries and benefits decreased by $3.7 million , or 55.5% , due to a $2.2 million decrease in incentive compensation and a $1.4 million decrease in salaries and benefits primarily resulting from our operational realignment.  As of June 30, 2013 , we had 21 employees compared to 27 employees as of June 30, 2012 .


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , general and administrative expense was $2.1 million , which represented a $6.1 million , or 74.2% , decrease compared to the same period in 2012 .  In the six months ended June 30, 2012 , general and administrative expense included $2.9 million in severance costs.  In addition, general and administrative expense decreased $1.3 million due to reduced occupancy and other costs for our new corporate office space.

NET INVESTMENT GAIN BEFORE INCOME TAX PROVISION


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we recorded $0.8 million of net investment gains before income tax provision, compared to $14.8 million of net investment losses during the same period in 2012 .  These amounts represent the total of net realized gains and losses, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation), and reversals of unrealized (appreciation) depreciation.  We reverse unrealized (appreciation) depreciation at the time that we realize the gain or loss.  The following table summarizes our realized and unrealized gain and (loss) on investments and changes in our unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments for the six months ended June 30, 2013 :

|• | In July 2012, Broadview agreed with certain of its noteholders and equityholders to solicit consents to file a pre-packaged chapter 11 plan of reorganization.  As of June 30, 2012, our fair value estimate of our investment in Broadview reflects this restructuring if consummated on the then contemplated terms.

INCOME TAX PROVISION


During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we incurred a $52,000 income tax provision compared to an $311,000 income tax provision during the six months ended June 30, 2012 .  The income tax provision for both periods was primarily attributable to flow-through taxable income on certain investments held by our subsidiaries.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Our financial liquidity principally comes from our cash on hand and the spread we earn on our investments (principally loans, over our cost to borrow) and gains and losses on our investments.  We may also use our available liquidity to pay dividends to our stockholders and to repurchase our common stock in the open market under our stock repurchase program.  For the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we declared 25 cents per share in dividends and paid $17.8 million in total dividends.  We also repurchased 504,639 shares of our common stock for $2.3 million at a weighted average price of $4.50 per share.


For the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we earned 12.3% on our average loan portfolio at fair value of $387.2 million and our weighted average cost to borrow was 4.2% on average borrowings of $222.5 million .  Including dividend income and fee income, we earned $21.4 million of financial income, or total revenue less interest expense, $15.6 million of net operating income and $16.3 million of net income.


At June 30, 2013 , we had $91.3 million in cash and cash equivalents available for general corporate purposes, $5.3 million of cash in restricted accounts related to our SBIC that we may use to fund new investments in the SBIC and $2.7 million of restricted cash held in escrow.  In addition, we had $16.7 million in securitization accounts that may only be used to make interest and principal payments on our securitized borrowings or distributions to MCG in accordance with the indenture agreement for the 2006-1 Trust.  We also have access to the full principal amount under our $20 million unsecured revolving credit facility that we may use for general corporate purposes.


In order to reduce future cash interest payments under our borrowings, as well as future amounts due at maturity or upon redemption under our borrowings, we may, from time to time, purchase debt for cash in open market purchases and/or privately negotiated transactions, if attractive pricing can be identified.  We will evaluate any such transactions in light of then-existing market conditions, taking into account our current liquidity and prospects for future access to capital.  The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material.


Although there can be no assurance, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our operating requirements for the remainder of 2013, as well as liquidity for new origination opportunities and potential dividend distributions.


CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS, CASH, SECURITIZATION ACCOUNTS AND CASH, RESTRICTED


Our Consolidated Balance Sheets and our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows reflect three categories of cash:  cash and cash equivalents; cash, securitization accounts; and cash, restricted.  Each of these categories is described more fully below:

|• | Cash, securitization accountsinclude principal and interest payments received on securitized loans, which, are held in designated bank accounts until monthly or quarterly disbursements are made from the securitization trusts.  We are generally required to use a portion of these amounts to pay interest expense, reduce borrowings or pay other amounts in accordance with the related securitization agreements.  Cash in securitization accounts has a negative impact on our earnings since the interest we pay on borrowings typically exceeds the rate of return that we are able to earn on temporary cash investments.  Our objective is to maintain sufficient cash-on-hand and availability under our debt facilities to cover current funding requirements.  As ofJune 30, 2013andDecember 31, 2012, we had$16.7 millionand $17.0 million, respectively, in cash, securitization accounts.

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , our operating activities provided $40.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, and our financing activities used $22.9 million of cash and cash equivalents.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES—BORROWINGS


As of June 30, 2013 , we reported $204.9 million of borrowings on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at cost.  The following table summarizes our borrowing facilities, the facility amounts and the amounts outstanding.

The reinvestment period for this facility ended on July 20, 2011 and we will use all future principal collections from collateral in the facility to repay the securitized debt.(c)Amount outstanding excludes $5.0 million of notes that we repurchased in December 2008 for $1.6 million and $8.0 million of notes that we repurchased in April 2010 for $4.4 million.  As part of the consolidation process, we eliminated the notes that MCG, the parent company, purchased.(d)Amount outstanding excludes $10.1 million of notes that we repurchased in December 2008 for $2.4 million and $7.5 million of notes that we repurchased in January 2009 for $2.1 million.  As part of the consolidation process, we eliminated the notes that MCG, the parent company, purchased.


As of June 30, 2013 , our asset coverage ratio was 768% .  This ratio does not include our SBIC debt which the SEC has permitted us to exclude from the asset coverage ratio requirements pursuant to an exemptive order.


Our access to current and future liquidity from our borrowing facilities depends on several factors, including, but not limited to:  the credit quality of our investment portfolio, including those investments used to collateralize borrowing facilities; the magnitude of our investments in individual companies and the industries in which they operate; our compliance with specific covenants in each borrowing agreement; and the specific provisions of our borrowing facilities.


As our borrowing facilities mature, it is important that we have sufficient liquidity available to repay our borrowing obligations.  We may obtain the liquidity for repayment of our borrowing facilities from a number of sources, including cash on-hand, the maturity or monetization of our investment portfolio, other borrowing facilities and equity issuances, and from other borrowing arrangements.


We have funded our current secured borrowing debt facility through a bankruptcy remote, special-purpose, wholly owned subsidiary.  Therefore, this subsidiary’s assets may not be available to our creditors.  We continue to service those portfolio investments that we use as collateral in our secured borrowing facility.


SBIC DEBENTURES


In December 2004, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Solutions Capital.  Solutions Capital has a license from the SBA to operate as an SBIC under the SBIC Act.  The license gave Solutions Capital the ability to borrow from the SBA up to $150.0 million, which is the maximum amount of outstanding leverage available to single-license SBIC companies.

In March 2011, we formed another wholly owned subsidiary, Solutions Capital II, L. P. in order to apply for a second SBIC license.  In September 2012, we submitted documentation to the SBA in support of a potential SBIC license for Solutions Capital II, L.P.  In February 2013, we received a letter from the SBA inviting us to file a formal license application, which we submitted to the SBA in March 2013 and was accepted by the SBA in May 2013.  Neither receipt of such an invitation nor acceptance of the application from the SBA assures an applicant that the SBA will grant the additional license in any specified time period or at all.  Currently, a second SBIC license would grant us the ability to borrow up to an additional $75 million from the SBA, or two times the amount of statutory equity capital we invest in Solutions Capital II, L.P.  If approved and depending on available capital, we intend to fund the entire $37.5 million using unrestricted cash.  In the second quarter of 2013, we invested $10.0 million of unrestricted cash in Solutions Capital II, L.P. and  funded a small business loan to Dorsey School of Business Holdings, Inc, or Dorsey.  We also received pre-licensing investment approval from the SBA for the Dorsey investment which, if closed in accordance with our pre-investment documentation, will count toward the required statutory capital of $37.5 million in our second SBIC.


To realize the full $150.0 million borrowing for which we have received approval under the SBIC program, we have funded a total of $75.0 million to Solutions Capital.  As of each of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , Solutions Capital had borrowed $150.0 million.  We are permitted to use these funds to provide debt and equity capital to qualifying small businesses.  However, we may not use these borrowings to provide additional financing to certain companies that are currently in our portfolio without SBA approval.  In addition, we may not use these funds for MCG’s, the parent company’s, working capital.


SBICs are subject to regulation and oversight by the SBA, including requirements to maintain certain minimum financial ratios and other covenants.  Receipt of an SBIC license does not assure that an SBIC will receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, which is dependent upon continued compliance with SBA regulations and policies.  The SBA, as a creditor, will have superior claim to Solutions Capital’s assets over our stockholders in the event we liquidate Solutions Capital or the SBA exercises its remedies upon an event of default under the SBA-guaranteed debentures issued by Solutions Capital.

MCG COMMERCIAL LOAN TRUST 2006-1


As of June 30, 2013 , we had $54.9 million of securitized debt outstanding under the 2006-1 Trust, which matures in April 2018.  We retain all of the equity in the securitization.  The pool of commercial loans in the trust must meet certain requirements, such as asset mix and concentration, collateral coverage, term, agency rating, minimum coupon, minimum spread and sector diversity requirements.  The securitization included a five-year reinvestment period, during which the trust was permitted to use principal collections received on the underlying collateral to purchase new collateral from us.

We were able to use the cash in the securitized account, as well as proceeds from principal collections of securitized investments, to originate new loans until July 20, 2011.  The reinvestment period ended on July 20, 2011 and all subsequent principal collections or monetization proceeds that we receive from collateral used to securitize this 2006-1 Trust must be applied to the outstanding balance of that facility.  Upon maturity of this facility, any remaining balance must be repaid, otherwise all or part of the associated collateral may be forfeited.  As shown in the above table, repayments of principal of the collateral held by this facility are expected to complete the repayment of 2006-1 Trust prior to its April 2018 maturity.


BANK OF AMERICA UNSECURED REVOLVER


In November 2012, we obtained an unsecured revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. in the principal amount of $20.0 million, or Bank of America Unsecured Revolver.  Advances under the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver will bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum and will expire in November 2014.  As of June 30, 2013 , there were no borrowings outstanding on the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver.


The Bank of America Unsecured Revolver is subject to certain collateral requirements and financial covenants.  Included among them are requirements that we maintain a ratio of all unencumbered assets to outstanding amounts under the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver of at least four-to-one, as well as a ratio of unencumbered cash and senior portfolio loans to outstanding amounts under the Bank of America Unsecured Revolver of at least three-to-one.  The Bank of America Unsecured Revolver may be prepaid at any time, and is required to be paid in full for a period of at least five consecutive calendar days during each quarter.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES—COMMON STOCK


We are a closed-end investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act.  The 1940 Act prohibits us from selling shares of our common stock at a price below the current net asset value of such stock, except in limited circumstances, including approval by our stockholders of such a sale and certain determinations by our board of directors.


On January 17, 2012, our board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $35.0 million and we have provided our stockholders with notice of our intention to repurchase shares of our common stock in accordance with 1940 Act requirements.  Under the program, we are authorized to repurchase shares of our common stock in open market transactions, including through block purchases, depending on prevailing market conditions and other factors.  The repurchase program may be extended, modified or discontinued at any time for any reason.  The program does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares, and all repurchases will be made in accordance with SEC Rule 10b-18, which sets certain restrictions on the method, timing, price and volume of stock repurchases.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we repurchased 504,639 shares of our common stock at a weighted average purchase price of $4.50 per share, which was a 13.1% discount from our quarterly net asset value per share.


OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS


FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


We are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of our customers.  These instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.  We attempt to limit our credit risk by conducting extensive due diligence and obtaining collateral where appropriate.


Commitments to extend credit include the unused portions of commitments that obligate us to extend credit in the form of loans, participations in loans, guarantees, letters of credit and other financial commitments.  Commitments to extend credit would also include loan proceeds we are obligated to advance, such as loan draws, rotating or revolving credit arrangements, or similar transactions.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the counterparty.  Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.


We do not report the unused portions of these commitments on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.  As of June 30, 2013 , we had $19.2 million of outstanding unused loan commitments.  We believe that our operations, monetizations, revolving credit facility and unrestricted cash will provide sufficient liquidity to fund, as necessary, requests to draw on these unfunded commitments.  We estimate that the fair value of these commitments was $0.1 million based on the fees that we currently charge to enter into similar arrangements, taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.  From time to time, we provide guarantees or standby letters of credit on behalf of our portfolio companies.  As of June 30, 2013 , we had no outstanding guarantees or standby letters of credit.

DISTRIBUTIONS


We currently qualify as a RIC for federal income tax purposes, which generally allows us to avoid paying corporate income taxes on any income or gains that we distribute to our stockholders.  Generally, we intend to distribute sufficient dividends to eliminate taxable income and may distribute more than the taxable income, which amount would be considered a return of capital.  As a RIC, we are subject to a 4% excise tax to the extent that we do not distribute on an actual or deemed basis:  (i) 98.0% of our current year ordinary income; and (ii) 98.2% of our current year net capital gain income.


We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions.  In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the BDC asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act and due to provisions in our credit facilities and SBA regulations.  If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of favorable RIC tax treatment.  We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions, or distributions at a particular level.  We may make distributions to our stockholders of certain net capital gains.  Since December 2001, we have declared aggregate per share distributions of $13.64 .

The following table summarizes the distributions that we declared since January 1, 2011:

If we determined the tax attributes of our distributions as of June 30, 2013 , 74% would be from ordinary income and 26% would be a return of capital.  A return of capital is a return of stockholder investment, rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from our investment activities.  While not immediately taxable to the extent of a stockholder's basis in its shares, a stockholder's basis in the investment will be reduced by the nontaxable amount, which will result in additional gain or a lower loss when the shares are sold.  However, actual determinations of the tax attributes of our distributions, including determinations of return of capital, are made annually as of the end of our fiscal year based upon our taxable income and distributions paid for the full year.  Therefore, a determination as to the tax attributes of the distributions made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes for a full year.  We intend to update stockholders quarterly with an estimated percentage of our distributions that resulted from taxable ordinary income.  The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will be reported to stockholders annually on a Form 1099-DIV.  Future distributions will take into account the requirements for us to distribute the majority of our taxable income to fulfill our distribution requirements as a RIC, together with an assessment of our current and forecasted gains and losses recognized or to be recognized for tax purposes, portfolio transactional events, liquidity, cash earnings and our asset coverage ratio at the time of such decision.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES


These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are based on the selection and application of critical accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions.  The following section describes our accounting policies associated with the valuation of our portfolio of investments.  For a full discussion of our other critical accounting policies and estimates, see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 .


VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS


FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES


We account for our investments at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification Topic 820—Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820.  ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value.  ASC 820 defines “fair value” as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  This fair value definition focuses on exit price in the principal, or most advantageous, market and prioritizes, within a measurement of fair value, the use of market-based inputs over entity-specific inputs.


58


---



ASC 820 establishes the following three-level hierarchy, based upon the transparency of inputs to the fair value measurement of an asset or liability as of the measurement date:


ASC 820 Fair Value HierarchyInputs to Fair Value MethodologyLevel 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilitiesLevel 2Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market informationLevel 3Pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption is unobservable or when the estimation of fair value requires significant management judgment


We categorize a financial instrument in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to its fair value measurement. In the event that transfers between these levels were to occur in the future, we would recognize those transfers as of the ending balance sheet date, based on changes in the use of observable and unobservable inputs utilized to perform the valuation for the period.


DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUE IN GOOD FAITH


As a BDC, we invest primarily in illiquid securities, including debt and equity securities of private companies.  To protect our investments and maximize our returns, we negotiate the structure of each equity security and the majority of the debt securities in our investment portfolio.  Our contracts with our portfolio companies generally include many terms governing interest rate, repayment terms, prepayment premiums, financial covenants, operating covenants, ownership and corporate governance parameters, dilution parameters, liquidation preferences, voting rights, and put or call rights.  In some cases, our loan agreements also allow for increases in the spread to the base index rate, if the portfolio company’s financial or operational performance deteriorates or shows negative variances from its business plan and, in some cases, allow for decreases in the spread if financial or operational performance improves or exceeds the portfolio company’s plan.  Generally, our investments are subject to some restrictions on resale and have no established trading market.  Because of the type of investments that we make and the nature of our business, our valuation processes require analyses of numerous market, industry and company-specific factors, including: the performance of the underlying investment; the financial condition of the portfolio company; changing market events; market prices, when available; estimates of market interest rates that would otherwise be made available to our portfolio companies; and other factors relevant to the individual security.


There is no single approach for determining fair value in good faith.  Unlike banks, we are not permitted to provide a general reserve for anticipated loan losses.  As a result, for portfolio investments that do not have an active market, we must apply business judgment to the specific facts and circumstances associated with each security to determine fair value.


Generally, we value securities that are traded in the over-the-counter market or on a stock exchange at the average of the prevailing bid and ask prices on the date of the relevant period end.  When such market prices are not available, we use several valuation methodologies to estimate the fair value of our investment portfolio, which generally results in a range of fair values from which we derive a single estimate of fair value.  To determine a portfolio company’s fair value, we analyze its historical and projected financial results, as well as key market value factors.  In determining a security's fair value, we assume we would exchange it in an orderly transaction at the measurement date.  We use the following methods to determine the fair value of investments in our portfolio that are not traded actively:


|  |

|• | Majority-Owned Control Investments—Majority-owned control investments comprised10.1%of our investment portfolio at fair value.  Market quotations are not readily available for these investments; therefore, we use a combination of market and income approaches to determine their fair value.  Typically, private companies are bought and sold based on multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited cases, book value.  Generally, we apply multiples that we observe for other comparable companies to relevant financial data for the portfolio company in question.  Also, in a limited number of cases, we use income approaches to determine the fair value of these securities, based on our projections of the discounted future free cash flows that the portfolio company will likely generate, as well as industry derived capital costs.  Our valuation approaches for majority-owned investments estimate the value

upon a hypothetical sale or exit and then allocates such value to the investment's securities in order of their relative liquidation preference.  In addition, we assume that any outstanding debt or other securities that are senior to our securities are required to be repaid at par.  These valuation approaches also consider the value of our ability to control the portfolio company’s capital structure and the timing of a potential exit.

|• | Non-Control Investments—Non-control investments comprised89.9%of our investment portfolio at fair value.  Quoted prices were not available for88.3%of our non-control investments at fair value.  For our non-control equity investments, we use the same market and income approaches used to value our control investments.  For non-control debt investments for which no quoted prices are available, we estimate fair value using a market-yield approach based on the expected future cash flows discounted at the loans’ effective interest rates, based on our estimate of current market rates.  We may adjust discounted cash flow calculations to reflect other market conditions or the perceived credit risk of the borrower.  In the event the fair value of a non-control debt investment, as determined by the same market or income approach used to value our control investments, is below our cost, we estimate the fair value using the market or income approach.

|• | Thinly-Traded and Over-the-Counter Securities—Generally, we value securities that are traded in the over-the-counter market or on a stock exchange at the average of the prevailing bid and ask prices on the date of the relevant period end.  However, we may apply a discount to the market value of restricted or thinly-traded public securities to reflect the impact that these restrictions have on the value of these securities.  We review factors, including the trading volume, total securities outstanding and our percentage ownership of securities to determine whether the trading levels are active (Level 1) or inactive (Level 2).  As ofJune 30, 2013, these securities represented10.5%of our investment portfolio at fair value.  We utilize independent pricing services to arrive at certain of our fair value estimates.  The majority of our level 2 investments are senior debt investments that are secured and collateralized.  To corroborate “bid/ask” quotes from independent pricing services we perform a market-yield approach to validate prices obtained or obtain other evidence.

Our valuation analyses incorporate the impact that key events could have on the securities’ values, including public and private mergers and acquisitions, purchase transactions, public offerings, letters of intent and subsequent debt or equity sales.  Our valuation analyses also include key external data, such as market changes and industry valuation benchmarks.  We also engage independent valuation firms to provide additional data points for our quarterly valuation analyses.  Our general practice is to obtain an independent valuation or review of valuation at least once per year for each portfolio investment that had a fair value in excess of $5.0 million, unless the fair value has otherwise been derived through a sale of some or all of our investment in the portfolio company or is a new investment made within the last twelve months.  In total, as of June 30, 2013 , we either obtained a valuation or review from an independent firm, considered new investments made or used market quotes in the preceding twelve month period to calculate 98.9% of the fair value of our investment portfolio.


The majority of the valuations performed by the independent valuation firms utilize proprietary models and inputs.  We have used, and intend to continue to use, independent valuation firms to provide additional support for our internal analyses.


Our board of directors sets our valuation policies and procedures and determines the fair value of our investments.  The investment and valuation committee of our board of directors meets at least quarterly with our executive management to review management’s recommendations of fair value of our investments.  Our board of directors considers our valuations, as well as the independent valuations and reviews, in its determination of the fair value of our investments.


Due to the uncertainty inherent in the valuation process, such fair value estimates may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material.  In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses that we ultimately realize on these investments to differ from the valuations currently assigned.


Significant Unobservable Inputs


Our investment portfolio is not composed of homogeneous debt and equity securities that can be valued with a small number of inputs.  Instead, the majority of our investment portfolio is composed of complex debt and equity securities with distinct contract terms and conditions.  As such, our valuation of each investment in our portfolio is unique and


60

complex, often factoring in numerous different inputs, including the historical and forecasted financial and operational performance of the portfolio company, projected cash flows, market multiples, comparable market transactions, the priority of our securities compared with those of other investors, credit risk, interest rates, independent valuations and reviews and other inputs too numerous to list quantitatively herein.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


There were a number of indicators of modest growth in the United States' economy during the second quarter of 2013.  However, certain leading and lagging indicators suggest continuing risk.  In the event of renewed financial turmoil affecting the banking system and financial markets, the financial position and results of operations of certain of the middle-market companies in our portfolio could be affected adversely, which ultimately could lead to difficulty in their meeting debt service requirements and an increase in defaults.


Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates.  Our net interest income is affected by changes in various interest rates, including LIBOR, prime rates and commercial paper rates.  As of June 30, 2013 , approximately 72.8% of our loan portfolio, at fair value, bore interest at a spread to either the LIBOR or the  prime rate, and 27.2% at a fixed interest rate.  As of June 30, 2013 , approximately 61.6% of our loan portfolio, at fair value, had LIBOR floors between 1.0% and 3.0% on a LIBOR base index and prime floors between 2.5% and 6.0% .  The three-month weighted-average LIBOR interest rate was 0.28% as of June 30, 2013 .  Thus, the LIBOR floors in these loan investments lessen the impact of such historically low LIBOR rates.


We regularly measure exposure to interest rate risk.  We assess interest rate risk and we manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities.  Based on this review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates.

The following table shows a comparison of the interest rate base for our interest-bearing cash, outstanding commercial loans, at cost, and our outstanding borrowings as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 :

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013 .  The term “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.  Based on the foregoing evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013 , our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION





ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.


From time to time, we are a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our business, including the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies.  While we cannot predict the outcome of these legal proceedings with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2013 , there were no new or material developments in legal proceedings.


ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS.


Investing in our common stock may be speculative and involves a high degree of risk.  In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our financial statements, the related notes, schedules and exhibits, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 , which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.  The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.


Other than described below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 , which should be read together with the other risk factors and information disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our other reports filed with the SEC.


The following disclosure replaces and supplements the risk factors titled "Our portfolio is concentrated in certain industries, which increases our risk of significant loss if any one of these companies fails to service our debt because of industry downturns", "You may not receive future distributions" and "Our wholly owned subsidiary is licensed by the SBA and is subject to SBA regulations.  If our SBIC subsidiary fails to comply with applicable SBA regulations, the SBA could, limit or prohibit its use of debentures, declare outstanding debentures immediately due and payable, and/or revoke or suspend our license" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 :


Our portfolio is concentrated in certain industries, which increases our risk of significant loss if any one of these companies fails to service our debt because of industry downturns .


From time to time, we target specific industries in which to invest on a recurring basis, which may result in significant concentrations in our portfolio.  As a consequence, the aggregate returns we realize may be substantially adversely affected by the unfavorable performance of a small number of such investments or a substantial write-down of any one investment.  Beyond regulatory and income tax diversification requirements, we do not have fixed guidelines for industry concentration.  In addition, while we generally decline to make investments in a particular industry or group of industries that would exceed 15.0% of our total assets at the time of closing, it is possible that as the values of our portfolio companies change, one industry or a group of industries may come to exceed such level.  As a result, a downturn in an industry in which we have invested a significant portion of our total investments could have a materially adverse effect on us.  As of June 30, 2013 , 25.7% , 19.4% and 13.3% of our total investments at fair value were invested in healthcare, business services and education companies, respectively.  Therefore, we are susceptible


63


---



to the economic circumstances in these industries, and a downturn in any one of these industries could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.


You may not receive future distributions.


In the event that the asset coverage ratio applicable to us as a BDC falls below 200%, we will be unable to make distributions until the ratio again meets or exceeds the threshold.  If we do not distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including the possible loss of our status as a RIC for the applicable period.  From December 2001 through June 30, 2013 , we declared distributions totaling $13.64 per common share.  Due to the market dislocation, we suspended our distributions from the third quarter of 2008 through the first quarter of 2010.  We reinstated our distribution on April  29, 2010, and have continued to declare a quarterly dividend since that time; however, there can be no assurance that distributions will continue in the future.


We will make future decisions with respect to the actual level of distributions after taking into account the minimum statutorily required level of distributions, gains and losses recognized for tax purposes, portfolio transactional events, our liquidity, cash earnings and our BDC asset coverage ratio at the time of such decision.  Regulatory constraints, our inability to achieve operating results or a decline in the performance of our business could prohibit our ability to make any future distributions.  In addition, we may not be able to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time.


Our wholly owned subsidiary is licensed by the SBA and is subject to SBA regulations.  If our SBIC subsidiary fails to comply with applicable SBA regulations, the SBA could, limit or prohibit its use of debentures, declare outstanding debentures immediately due and payable, and/or revoke or suspend our license.


Our wholly owned subsidiary, Solutions Capital, is licensed to operate as an SBIC and is regulated by the SBA. The SBIC license allows Solutions Capital to obtain leverage, or borrowings, by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures, subject to receipt of a capital commitment from the SBA and other customary procedures. The SBA regulations require, among other things, an annual periodic examination of a licensed SBIC by an SBA examiner to determine the SBIC ' s compliance with the relevant SBA regulations, and the performance of a financial audit by an independent auditor.


The SBA regulations permit licensed SBICs to make long term loans to small businesses and invest in the equity securities of such businesses. Under current SBA regulations, a licensed SBIC may provide capital to small businesses having a tangible net worth not exceeding $18.0 million and an average net income after federal income taxes not exceeding $6.0  million for the two most recent fiscal years. In addition, a licensed SBIC must devote 25% of its investment activity to entities having a tangible net worth not exceeding $6.0 million and an average annual net income after federal income taxes not exceeding $2.0 million for the two most recent fiscal years. If a proposed portfolio company does not meet the foregoing requirements, the SBA regulations also provide alternative criteria for eligibility which depend on the industry in which the prospective portfolio company is engaged as well as other factors such as the number of employees and gross sales. The SBA also restricts the financing terms of investments by SBICs in portfolio companies, and prohibits funds from being deployed in support of certain purposes or industries. Compliance with SBA requirements may cause our SBIC subsidiary to forego attractive investment opportunities that are not permitted under SBA regulations.


A single-license SBIC subsidiary may currently borrow up to a maximum of $150.0  million when it has at least $75.0  million in private capital, receives a capital commitment from the SBA and has been through an examination by the SBA subsequent to licensing. As of January 2013, we have funded $75.0  million to Solutions Capital, and Solutions Capital has borrowed the maximum $150.0  million of SBA-guaranteed debentures.  In the quarter ended September  30, 2012, we submitted documentation to the SBA in support of a potential SBIC license for Solutions Capital II, L.P.  In February 2013, we received a letter from the SBA inviting us to file a formal license application, which we submitted to the SBA in March 2013.  However, receipt of a green light letter from the SBA does not assure that the SBA will ultimately issue an SBIC license and we have received no assurance or indication from the SBA either that we will receive a second SBIC license, or the timeframe in which we could expect to receive a second license should one ultimately be granted.


The SBA prohibits, without prior SBA approval, a “ change of control ” of an SBIC or transfers that would result in any person (or a group of persons acting in concert) owning 10% or more of a class of capital stock of a licensed SBIC. If our SBIC subsidiary fails to comply with applicable SBA regulations, the SBA could, depending on the severity of the violation, limit or prohibit its use of debentures, declare outstanding debentures immediately due and payable,


64


---



and/or limit it from making new investments. In addition, the SBA can revoke or suspend a license for willful or repeated violation of, or willful or repeated failure to observe, any provision of the SBIC Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder. These actions by the SBA would, in turn, negatively affect us because our SBIC subsidiary is our wholly owned subsidiary and we rely on the ability to make investments through it.





ITEM 2.  UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.


NET ISSUANCE OF RESTRICTED STOCK


For certain employees, we may be deemed to have purchased through the net issuance of shares, a portion of the shares of restricted stock previously issued under our Third Amended and Restated 2006 Employee Restricted Stock Plan, or the 2006 Plan, for which the forfeiture provisions have lapsed to satisfy the respective employee’s income tax withholding obligations.  We retire immediately all such shares of common stock that we purchase in connection with such net issuance to employees.


DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN


As part of our dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders, we may direct the plan administrator to purchase shares of our common stock on the open market to satisfy dividend reinvestment requests related to dividends that we pay on outstanding shares of our common stock.


The following table summarizes the shares of common stock that we have purchased during the three months ended June 30, 2013 :
