PORTFOLIO AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES
During the fourth quarter of 2016, OFS Capital closed two new senior secured debt investments in two portfolio companies totaling $13.0 million, one of which also included a new common equity investment of $0.7 million, and also closed one new subordinated debt investment of $12.4 million. In addition, OFS Capital made a $1.0 million senior secured debt investment and a $1.0 million subordinated debt investment in existing portfolio companies.
The total fair value of OFS Capital’s investment portfolio was $281.6 million at December 31, 2016, which was equal to approximately 101% of amortized cost. As of December 31, 2016, the fair value of OFS Capital's debt investment portfolio totaled $244.4 million in 39 portfolio companies, of which 74% and 26% were senior secured loans and subordinated loans, respectively. As of December 31, 2016, we also held approximately $37.3 million in equity investments, at fair value, in 17 portfolio companies in which we also held debt investments and two portfolio company in which we solely held an equity investment. We had unfunded commitments of $2.6 million to three portfolio companies at December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, floating rate loans comprised 66% of OFS Capital’s debt investment portfolio, with the remaining 34% in fixed rate loans, as a percentage of fair value.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Interest Income:
Interest income decreased $1.4 million primarily due to a $1.0 million decrease in interest income and a $0.4 million decrease in accelerated loan origination fees, original issue discount, market discount or premium, and loan amendment fees (collectively, "Net Loan Fees"). The $1.0 million decrease in interest income was primarily due to a $3.6 million decrease caused by a 13% decrease in the average outstanding loan balance during 2016, offset by an increase of $2.6 million caused by a 19 basis point increase in the weighted average yield in our portfolio during the year ended December 31, 2016. The 13% decrease in the weighted average principal balance of investments and increase in our average portfolio yield was primarily a result of the WM Asset Sale, in which we sold a portfolio of 20 senior secured debt investments with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $67.8 million to Madison Capital Funding LLC on May 28, 2015. the proceeds of which had only been partially reinvested in higher yielding assets subsequent to the WM Asset Sale. Acceleration of Net Loan Fees of $0.6 million and $1.0 million were included in interest income for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Acceleration of Net Loan Fees occur and are recognized on certain loans that are repaid prior to their scheduled due date.
Dividend Income:
Preferred equity cash and PIK dividend income increased approximately $0.3 million primarily as a result of additional preferred equity securities purchased during 2015. Common equity dividend income increased by $0.2 million primarily due to an additional common equity security purchased during the fourth quarter of 2015.
Fee Income:
Fee income decreased $0.3 million primarily due to a decrease in prepayment fees, capital structuring fees. We recorded prepayment fees of $0.9 million resulting from $25.0 million of unscheduled principal payments during the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to $1.1 million from $47.5 million of unscheduled principal payments during 2015. We recognized capital structuring fees of $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, upon the closing of $37.3 million and $89.0 million of debt and equity investments, respectively.
Expenses
Interest expense decreased by $1.7 million, primarily due to a year-over-year decrease of $0.8 million in cash interest expense on our secured revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("WM Credit Facility") and a $1.6 million write-off of deferred debt issuance costs, both related to our permanent reduction of the WM Credit Facility and the termination of the WM Credit Facility on May 28, 2015, offset by an increase of $0.7 million in cash interest expense incurred on our SBA debentures. Interest expense on our SBA debentures increased due to an increase in the weighted average interest rate and the weighted average debentures outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2016, as a result of additional debenture draws of $22.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, which pooled on September 23, 2015.
Management fee expense decreased by $0.7 million, due to a decrease in the average total assets subject to the base management fee.
Incentive fee expense increased by $0.7 million, due to a 11% increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income compared to the prior year, which resulted in a $0.8 million increase in the incentive fee catch-up provision (the amount of pre-incentive fee income that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5%) and a $0.1 million increase in the incentive fee due to the amount of pre-incentive fee income that exceeded 2.5%, partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in the Capital Gains Fee, which represents the reversal of the accrued Capital Gains Fee at December 31, 2015.
Administrative fee expense decreased by $0.3 million, primarily due to a decrease in the allocable amount of incentives of our officers and their respective staffs, which OFS Services passed along to us under our administration agreement.
Net gain (loss) on investments
Net gain (loss) on investments consists of the sum of: (a) realized gains and losses from the sale of debt or equity securities, or the redemption of equity securities; and (b) changes in net unrealized appreciation/depreciation on debt and equity investments. In the period in which a realized gain or loss is recognized, such gain or loss will generally be offset by the reversal of previously recognized unrealized appreciation or depreciation, and the net gain recognized in that period will generally be smaller. The unrealized appreciation or depreciation on debt securities is also reversed when those investments are redeemed or paid off prior to maturity. In such instances, the reversal on unrealized appreciation or depreciation will be reported as a net loss
or gain, respectively, and may be partially offset by the acceleration of any premium or discount on the debt security in interest income and any prepayment fees on the debt security in fee income.
We changed the primary method used to value certain of our investments as of December 31, 2016, from the income approach to the market approach ("Valuation Methodology Change"), primarily due to the nature of evidence available under the discounted cash flow method, and to better align with industry practice. The methodology change resulted in a fourth quarter 2016 net increase to the carrying value of the investments and corresponding net increase in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments in the consolidated statement of operations of $1.6 million.
We recognized net gains of $0.4 million on senior secured debt during the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily as a result of the net positive impact of market based transactions on our fair values, offset by the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors, the pay-off of certain senior secured debt investments, and $0.4 million as a result of theValuation Methodology Change.
We recognized net losses of $2.4 million on subordinated debt during the year ended December 31, 2016, principally due to the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors and $0.5 million as a result of the Valuation Methodology Change.
We recognized net losses of $2.6 million on preferred equity investments for the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors offset by $2.1 million as a result of the Valuation Methodology Change.
We recognized net gains of $4.2 million on common equity and warrant investments for the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to the net impact of portfolio company-specific performance factors and $0.4 million as a result of the Valuation Methodology Change. In addition, we realized gains of $2.1 million from the redemption of an equity investment. We held this investment from the first quarter of 2014 and recognized unrealized gains of $2.1 million and $0.5 during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The net impact of this transaction was a recognized net loss of $0.5 during the year ended December 31, 2016 due to the reversal of the accumulated unrealized gains in excess of the recognized realized gain.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2016, we had $17.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $149.9 million in outstanding SBA-guaranteed debentures. As of December 31, 2016, we had $15.5 million available for additional borrowings on our senior secured revolving credit facility with Pacific Western Bank and had drawn all of our available SBA-guaranteed debentures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure – Adjusted Net Investment Income (“Adjusted NII”)
On a supplemental basis, we disclose Adjusted NII (including on a per share basis), which is a financial measure calculated and presented on a basis of methodology other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“non-GAAP”). Adjusted NII represents net investment income, (1) excluding write-offs of deferred debt issuance costs associated with our permanent reductions of the WM Credit Facility, (2) adding back the amount of net investment income incentive fee expenses associated with the write-offs that we would have incurred had the write-offs not occurred, and (3) excluding the net capital gains incentive fee (fee adjustments) in periods in which they occur. Our management agreement with OFS Advisor provides that a capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such realized capital gains exceed realized and unrealized capital losses for such year. Management believes that Adjusted NII is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any net capital gains incentive fee, as net investment income does not include gains associated with the capital gains incentive fee. In addition, management believes that providing Adjusted NII may facilitate a more complete analysis and greater transparency into OFS Capital’s ongoing operations, particularly in comparing underlying results from period to period, and afford investors a view of results that may be more easily compared to those of other companies.
The following table provides a reconciliation from net investment income (the most comparable GAAP measure) to Adjusted NII for the periods presented: |
