PORTFOLIO AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES

During the second quarter of 2014, SBIC I LP closed three senior secured debt investments totaling $20.0 million at par in three new portfolio companies.

The total fair value of OFS Capital's investment portfolio was $230.7 million as of June 30, 2014, which was equal to 97.3% of cost at June 30, 2014. The portfolio included outstanding loans of approximately $231.2 million in aggregate principal amount (with an aggregate fair value of $222.5 million) in 57 portfolio companies. Of this $231.2 million total, SBIC I LP held debt investments of approximately $69.4 million in aggregate principal amount ($67.1 million fair value) in 12 portfolio companies. SBIC I LP also held equity securities with a fair value of $8.2 million in 8 of these 12 portfolio companies. As of June 30, 2014, floating rate loans comprised 84% of OFS Capital's debt investment portfolio, with the remaining 16% in fixed rate loans. As of June 30, 2014, 93% of OFS Capital's investment portfolio at fair value was comprised of senior secured loans, 4% of subordinated loans, and 3% of equity investments. The weighted average yield on debt investments was 8.08% at June 30, 2014. OFS Capital had unfunded commitments of $5.8 million in four portfolio companies at quarter's end.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Investment income

Total investment income was $4.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, compared with $4.2 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in total investment income was attributable primarily to an increase in interest income as a result of OFS Capital's consolidation of SBIC I LP onto its financial statements, which became effective on December 4, 2013 upon closing of the acquisition of the SBIC fund interests (the "SBIC Acquisitions"), offset by a decrease in investment income generated from OFS Capital's wholly-owned subsidiary, OFS Capital WM, LLC ("OFS Capital WM") for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as compared with the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to the decrease of investments held by OFS Capital WM in 2014 compared with 2013.

Total expenses

Total expenses were $2.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, compared with $2.8 million for the same period in the prior year. Interest expense increased by approximately $0.1 million primarily due to $0.2 million of interest expense on debentures guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA"). This $0.2 million of interest expense was offset by a decrease of approximately $0.1 million in interest expense on OFS Capital WM's revolving credit facility for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. For the three months ended June 30, 2014, OFS Capital recorded $49 thousand of amortization expense on intangible assets related to SBIC I LP's Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") license, which was recognized upon the SBIC Acquisitions.

Management fees expense decreased by approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to a reduced quarterly base management fee of 0.145833% compared with the quarterly base management fee of 0.21875% for 2013. On May 5, 2014, OFS Capital was notified by OFS Capital Management, LLC, its Investment Advisor that, effective as of April 1, 2014, it would reduce its base management fee from 0.4375% per quarter to 0.145833% per quarter for the remainder of fiscal year 2014. Accordingly, the effective annual base management fee for the 2014 fiscal year will be equal to 50% of the 1.75% required by OFS Capital's Investment Management and Advisory Agreement with its Investment Advisor, or not greater than 0.875%. This reduction was made by the Investment Advisor for the benefit of OFS Capital's shareholders to take into account unforeseen delays in completing the SBIC Acquisitions.

Professional fees decreased by approximately $0.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2013, largely due to decreased legal fees. A substantial amount of legal fees incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2013 were related to the SBIC Acquisitions.

Administrative fee expense increased by approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to an increase in the allocable amount of the salary of OFS Capital's officers and their respective staffs, which OFS Capital's administrator passed along to it during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, OFS Capital recorded approximately $(1.2) million of net change in unrealized depreciation on non-control/non-affiliate investments, consisting of approximately $(1.3) million of net change in unrealized depreciation on non-control/non-affiliate investments held by OFS Capital WM and approximately $0.1 million of net change in unrealized depreciation on non-control/non-affiliate investments held by SBIC I LP. In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, OFS Capital recorded approximately $0.1 million of net change in unrealized appreciation on affiliate investments held by SBIC I LP, as well as approximately $(0.4) million of net change in unrealized depreciation on a control investment held by SBIC I LP, relating to its investment in Tangible Software, Inc. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, OFS Capital recorded approximately $0.9 million of net change in unrealized depreciation on non-control/non-affiliate investments held by OFS Capital WM, as well as approximately $0.9 million of net change in unrealized depreciation on affiliate investment, consisting solely of OFS Capital's equity investment in SBIC I LP, which was accounted for at fair value at June 30, 2013.

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations

Net increase in net assets resulting from operations was approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared with $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013, and OFS Capital's net asset value was $14.17 per share at June 30, 2014.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2014, OFS Capital had $21.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, including $16.5 million in capital commitments funded into SBIC I LP.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, OFS Capital had net cash provided by operating activities of $15.9 million, primarily attributable to a $2.6 million net increase in net assets resulting from operations, net proceeds of $29.7 million received from principal payments on portfolio investments, as well as cash collections of $7.5 million from the sale of portfolio investments, offset by $25.6 million of cash used to purchase portfolio investments.

Net cash used in financing activities was $23.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily attributable to the $16.6 million of net repayments on the OFS Capital WM's revolving credit facility as well as $6.5 million of cash paid in dividends and distributions.

As of June 30, 2014, OFS Capital had $92.4 million in debt outstanding on its $135.0 million revolving credit facility, and $15.1 million remaining in borrowing availability. As of the same date, SBIC I LP had leverage commitments of $61.4 million from the SBA, and $26.0 million of outstanding SBA-guaranteed debentures, leaving incremental borrowing capacity of $35.4 million under present SBIC regulations.

In July 2014, OFS Capital WM's revolving credit facility was amended pursuant to which the calculation of the borrowing base was adjusted and the minimum equity requirement was lowered from $50.0 million to $35.0 million, resulting in additional liquidity for OFS Capital. In addition, the maximum facility was reduced from $135.0 million to $125.0 million. No financing costs were incurred in connection with this amendment.

In July 2014, OFS Capital funded the remaining $13.6 million of its $75.0 million commitments to SBIC I LP, which resulted in SBIC I LP's access to the full $150.0 million in SBA-guaranteed debentures, subject to proper approval and the customary procedures of the SBA. This also results in an increase in SBIC I LP's incremental borrowing capacity to $112.0 million (taking into consideration SBIC I LP's draw of an additional $12.0 million under the SBA debentures on July 10, 2014) upon SBIC I LP's receipt of the SBA's approval to access the full $150.0 million in SBA-guaranteed debentures.

OFS Capital's primary uses of cash are purchases of debt and equity investments, interest payments on indebtedness, payment of other expenses, and distributions to shareholders.
