(1) Represents weighted average yield on total debt investments for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Weighted average yield on total debt investments is the annualized rate of interest income recognized during the period divided by the average amortized cost of debt investments in the portfolio during the period. The weighted average yield on total debt investments reflected above does not represent actual investment returns to the Company's stockholders.

Mr. Michael C. Mauer, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, said "The December quarter saw record originations, at reasonable leverage levels, maintaining our debt portfolio portfolio's average return. We covered our dividend year-to-date and increased our NAV. We also executed under the promise to co-invest in equity positions with Investcorp's North American Private Equity group, with continued momentum under that plan. All of this resulted in a more diverse portfolio with stable income."

The Company's dividend framework provides a quarterly base dividend and may be supplemented, at the discretion of the Board, by additional dividends as determined to be available by the Company's net investment income and performance during the quarter.

On February 3, 2022, the Board declared a distribution of $0.15 per share for the quarter ending March 31, 2022, payable in cash on March 31, 2022, to stockholders of record as of March 11, 2022.

This distribution represents a 12.12% yield on the Company's $4.95 share price as of market close on December 31, 2021. Distributions may include net investment income, capital gains and/or return of capital, however, the Company does not expect the dividend for the quarter ending March 31, 2022 to be comprised of a return of capital. The Company's investment adviser monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a return of capital may occur for the year. The Company estimates the source of its distributions as required by Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to determine whether payment of dividends are expected to be paid from any other source other than net investment income accrued for the current period or certain cumulative periods, but the Company will not be able to determine whether any specific distribution will be treated as made out of taxable earnings or as a return of capital until after at the end of the taxable year.

Portfolio and Investment Activities

During the quarter, the Company made investments in seven new portfolio companies and seven existing portfolio companies. The aggregate capital invested during the quarter totaled $66.5 million, at cost, and the debt investments were made at a weighted average yield of 7.83%.

The Company received proceeds of $45.2 million from repayments, sales and amortization during the quarter, primarily related to the realizations of Galaxy Universal LLC, One Sky Flight LLC, Veterans Services, LLC (Lockwood), ZeroChaos Parent, LLC, Pixelle Specialty Solutions LLC and CB URS Holdings Corporation (United Road).

During the quarter, the Company made net advances of $0.6 million on our revolving credit commitments.

The Company's net realized and unrealized gains and losses accounted for an increase in the Company's net investments of $1.3 million, or $0.09 per share. The total net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the quarter was $3.4 million, or $0.24 per share.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company's investment portfolio consisted of investments in 38 portfolio companies, of which 95.3% were first lien investments and 4.7% were equity, warrants, and other investments. The Company's debt portfolio consisted of 99.5% floating rate investments and 0.5% fixed rate investments.

The Company continues to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its portfolio companies and will continue to closely monitor its portfolio companies throughout this period, including assessing portfolio companies' operational and liquidity exposure and outlook. For additional information about the COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition, please refer to the disclosure in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.
