NEW YORK, Aug. 6, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KCAP Financial, Inc. (Nasdaq: KCAP ) announces its second quarter 2014 financial results.
Financial Highlights
- Net investment income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014 was approximately $8.0 million, or $0.24 per basic share, compared with approximately $6.6 million, or $0.20 per basic share in the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
- KCAP Financial, Inc. declared a second quarter shareholder distribution of $0.25 per share.
- At June 30, 2014, the fair value of KCAP's investments totaled approximately $437 million.
- Net asset value per share of $7.67 as of June 30, 2014, compared with $7.51 at December 31, 2013.
Dayl Pearson, President and Chief Executive Officer of KCAP Financial, Inc., noted, "We are pleased with the continued development of both our direct lending and asset management businesses in the second quarter. While new deal activity moderated compared to the first quarter, we have a healthy pipeline and have continued to sustain positive momentum. In addition, our asset management business continued to add new assets under management with the closing of Catamaran CLO 2014-1 in the second quarter."
Operating Results
For the three months ended June 30, 2014, we reported total investment income of approximately $13.2 million, compared to approximately $11.2 million in the same period last year, an increase of 18%. Investment income from debt securities increased 73% to approximately $5.2 million from approximately $3.0 million in second quarter 2013. Distributions from investments in CLO fund securities in the second quarter of 2014 were consistent with the second quarter of 2013 at $4.9 million in each period, and distributions from our Asset Manager Affiliates in the second quarter of 2014 decreased to approximately $3 million from approximately $3.3 million in 2013.
For the three months ended June 30, 2014, total expenses were higher by approximately $525,000 as compared to the same period in 2013, primarily attributable to the increase in interest expense related to the higher average outstanding principal balance on our borrowings.
Net investment income for the second quarter of 2014 and 2013 was approximately $8.0 million and $6.6 million, or $0.24 per basic share and $0.20 per basic share, respectively. Net realized and unrealized appreciation on investments for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was approximately $4.2 million, as compared to approximately $1.9 million for the same period in 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2014, we had unrestricted cash and money market balances of approximately $7.9 million, total assets of approximately $458.6 million and stockholders' equity of approximately $258.5 million. Our net asset value per common share was $7.67. As of June 30, 2014, we had $195.7 million (par value) of borrowings outstanding ($192.8 million net of discount) with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5.1%.
Subject to prevailing market conditions, we intend to grow our portfolio of assets by raising additional capital, including through the prudent use of leverage available to us. As a result, we may seek to enter into new agreements with other lenders or into other financing arrangements as market conditions permit. Such financing arrangements may include a new secured and/or unsecured credit facility or the issuance of unsecured debt or preferred stock.
Distributions
Generally, we seek to fund distributions to shareholders from current distributable earnings, primarily from net investment income generated by our investment portfolio. We announced a regular quarterly distribution of $0.25 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2014. The record date for this distribution was July 3, 2014 and the distribution was paid on July 25, 2014. An estimate of the tax attributes of distributions made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes of distributions for a full year. Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099-DIV after the end of the calendar year.
We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of distributions in shares of our common stock, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if we declare a cash distribution, shareholders who have not "opted out" of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving cash. For more information regarding our distributions, please refer to our 2013 annual financial report. Please contact your broker or other financial intermediary for more information regarding the dividend reinvestment plan.
