American Capital also announced that it has retained Goldman
Sachs as a financial advisor to the Company as it evaluates
separating its investment assets from its asset management
business. As discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year
ended December 31, 2013, the Company
is undertaking a process to evaluate its corporate structure to
determine whether that structure and the various legal, regulatory
and accounting regimes under which it operates are the optimum
means for the operation and capitalization of its business.
There is no assurance that this evaluation process will result in
any changes to the Company's corporate structure or operations or
that the Company will provide any further communications regarding
the progress or results of this evaluation process.
"We have made progress evaluating our corporate structure," said
Malon Wilkus, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. "In addition to engaging Goldman Sachs,
our Board of Directors suspended our Share Repurchase and Dividend
Program, as we evaluate the capital requirements of our
alternatives."
"Also, subsequent to quarter end, we created ACE III, our fifth
fund or company investing in private equity, which will have
$1.1 billion of assets and committed
capital," continued Mr. Wilkus. "This significant development
in our asset management business expands our base of institutional
investors and provides the opportunity to become their long-term
asset management partner. ACE III increases ACAM's earning
assets under management by 7%, and it will earn fees and
participate in investment gains. It also will generate
liquidity of up to approximately $640
million."
"With our substantial liquidity, excellent Leverage Finance Team
and an unlevered balance sheet, we have begun investing in senior
floating rate loans," said Mr. Wilkus. "Late in the first
quarter, we invested $199 million in
these loans, and have invested approximately $140 million more quarter to date and intend
on investing significantly more during the remaining portion of
this quarter and the year. This will have a positive impact
on earnings starting in the second quarter."
PORTFOLIO VALUATION
For the quarter ended
March 31, 2014, net unrealized appreciation, before income
taxes, totaled $32 million. The
primary components of the net unrealized appreciation were:
- $121 million unrealized
appreciation in American Capital's investment in ACAM, primarily
due to an increase in actual and forecasted growth and multiple
expansion;
- $60 million unrealized
appreciation in American Capital's investment in European Capital,
driven by a reduction in the discount applied to the NAV of
European Capital and net unrealized appreciation of European
Capital's underlying investment portfolio.
- The Company's equity investment in European Capital was valued
at $801 million as of March 31, 2014, or 87% of European Capital's NAV,
compared to $841 million as of
December 31, 2013 or 85% of European
Capital's NAV; partially offset by
- $146 million net unrealized
depreciation from American Capital's private finance portfolio
primarily driven by the ACE III transaction and declining company
specific performance.
"American Capital Asset Management appreciated this quarter by
$121 million," said John Erickson, Chief Financial Officer.
"The appreciation was in part due to an improving outlook for AGNC
and MTGE, the two mortgage REITs ACAM manages, and the creation of
ACE III. Also, ACSF, a business development company managed
by ACAM and focused on senior floating rate loans, successfully
completed its IPO. By quarter end, ACSF had fully invested
the IPO proceeds at attractive risk adjusted yields. Like
AGNC and MTGE, we expect ACSF to perform and grow as it has quite
attractive investment opportunities in a very large market."
PORTFOLIO REALIZATIONS AND PERFORMANCE
In the first
quarter of 2014, $442 million of cash
proceeds were received from realizations of portfolio investments,
including a dividend distribution of $104
million from European Capital and $195 million in proceeds from ACAM related to the
repayment of ACAM's initial investment in ACSF. American
Capital made $321 million in new
committed investments during the quarter, including $199 million of senior floating rate loans.
The weighted average effective interest rate on American
Capital's debt investments as of March 31, 2014 was 9.1%, 90
basis points lower than the December 31, 2013 rate of
10.0%. The primary drivers of the decline in the weighted
average effective interest rate relates to the new investments in
senior floating rate loans at quarter end and new non-accruing
loans as a result of weaker company performance.
As of March 31, 2014, loans with a fair value of
$165 million were on non-accrual,
representing 9.2% of total loans at fair value, compared to
$154 million fair value of
non-accrual loans, or 9.7% of total loans at fair value as of
December 31, 2013. The $11
million increase in the fair value of loans on non-accrual
was generally driven by loans placed on non-accrual status due to
weaker portfolio company performance. Total loans on
non-accrual were valued at 52.4% of cost at the end of the quarter,
a 1.3% decrease from the prior quarter. This is an estimate
of the amount the Company expects to recover on non-accruing
loans. The estimated loss on total loans at cost, defined as
net accumulated depreciation on non-accrual loans plus realized
losses on loans during the period, was $150
million, or 7.8%. Net operating income before income
taxes of $0.06 per diluted share
during the quarter was reduced by $0.06 per diluted share due to the net impact of
debt and equity securities being added and removed from non-accrual
status.
"European Capital received €141 million of realizations in the
first quarter, which allowed European Capital to distribute €75
million, or $104 million, to American
Capital," said Ira Wagner,
President, European Private Finance. "It's also gratifying to
report that European Capital increased its NAV by €25 million, or
12% annualized, prior to its distributions to American Capital, and
that American Capital's investment in European Capital appreciated
$60 million."
STOCK REPURCHASE AND DIVIDEND PROGRAM
American
Capital's Board of Directors adopted a program that may provide for
repurchases of shares or dividend payments. Under the
program, American Capital may consider quarterly setting an amount
to be utilized for stock repurchases or dividends. Generally,
the amount may be utilized for repurchases if the price of American
Capital's common stock represents a discount to the NAV of its
shares, and the amount may be utilized for the payment of cash
dividends if the price of American Capital's common stock
represents a premium to the NAV of its shares.
During the quarter, American Capital made open market purchases
of 8.9 million shares, or $137
million, of American Capital common stock at an average
price of $15.38 per share.
Since the inception of the program in August
2011, American Capital has made open market purchases of
101.6 million shares, or $1.2
billion, of American Capital common stock at an average
price of $11.74 per share. This
represents 29% of shares outstanding immediately prior to the
launch of the program.
In March 2014, American Capital's
Board of Directors suspended the program for an indefinite
period.

cash realization received upon exit. Additionally, IRR calculations
exclude securities traded but not yet settled at period
end.

months or current annualized run-rate.
