NEW YORK, May 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc. (NASDAQ: ICMB) ("ICMB" or the "Company") announced its financial results today for its fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2023.

  • During the quarter, ICMB made investments in one new portfolio company and three existing portfolio companies. These investments totaled $8.0 million, at cost. The weighted average yield (at origination) of debt investments made in the quarter was 12.85%.
  • ICMB fully realized two portfolio companies during the quarter, totaling $11.2 million in proceeds. The internal rate of return on these investments was 10.70%.
  • During the quarter, the Company had net advances of $1.1 million on its existing delayed draw and revolving credit commitments to portfolio companies.

(1) Represents weighted average yield on total debt investments for the three months ended March 31, 2023. 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 current high rate environment continues to put pressure on highly levered borrowers across the loan market in the form of elevated interest expense. Our focus on lower leverage multiples as compared to the broadly syndicated market provides our portfolio with significant insulation from the liquidity pressure that many borrowers are facing. We expect a tale of two markets; one of conservatively structured companies with a low default rate, and one of more aggressively leveraged companies who will see increasing challenges in the coming quarters."

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 May 4, 2023, the Board declared a distribution for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 of $0.13 per share payable on July 7, 2023 to stockholders of record as of June 16, 2023 and a supplemental distribution of $0.05 per share, payable on July 7, 2023, to stockholders of record as of June 16, 2023.

This distribution represents a 19.73% yield on the Company's $3.65 share price as of market close on March 31, 2023. 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, 2023, 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 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 one new portfolio company and three existing portfolio companies. The aggregate capital invested during the quarter totaled $8.0 million, at cost, and the debt investments were made at a weighted average yield of 12.85%.

The Company received proceeds of $14.9 million from repayments, sales and amortization during the quarter, primarily related to the realization of Agrofresh Inc. and Liberty Oilfield Services, LLC.

During the quarter, the Company had net advances of $1.1 million on its existing and new delayed draw and revolving credit commitments to portfolio companies.

The Company's net realized, and unrealized gains and losses accounted for a decrease in the Company's net investments of $3.6 million, or $0.25 per share. The total net decrease in net assets resulting from operations for the quarter was $1.1 million, or $0.08 per share.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company's investment portfolio consisted of investments in 35 portfolio companies, of which 90.6% were first lien investments and 9.4% were equity, warrants, and other investments. The Company's debt portfolio consisted of 99.6% floating rate investments and 0.4% 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 March 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2023.

Capital Resources
