Management Commentary
“Fidus' debt portfolio produced extremely strong earnings for the first quarter driven by a 13.1% increase in interest income and a higher level of fees. In addition, with adjusted net investment income of $0.62 per share, we extended our track record of over-earning the base dividend and are pleased to continue to pay-out excess earnings to shareholders,” said Edward Ross, Chairman and CEO of Fidus Investment Corporation. “With strong defensive characteristics and high free cash flow generating business models, our portfolio of niche market leaders remains sound from a credit quality perspective and well positioned to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders.”
(1) Supplemental information regarding adjusted net investment income:
On a supplemental basis, we provide information relating to adjusted net investment income, which is a non-GAAP measure. This measure is provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net investment income. Adjusted net investment income represents net investment income excluding any capital gains incentive fee expense or (reversal) attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses. The management agreement with our investment adviser provides that a capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to cumulative realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such realized capital gains exceed realized and unrealized losses. In addition, we accrue, but do not pay, a capital gains incentive fee in connection with any unrealized capital appreciation, as appropriate. As such, we believe that adjusted net investment income is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any capital gains incentive fee expense or (reversal) attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of net investment income to adjusted net investment income are set forth in Schedule 1.
