OFS CAPITAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS
QUARTERLY DISTRIBUTION INCREASED TO $0.28 PER SHARE — 12% INCREASE COMPARED TO PRIOR QUARTER
Chicago, IL - March 4, 2022 - OFS Capital Corporation (Nasdaq: OFS) (“OFS Capital,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) today announced its financial results for the fiscal quarter and the full year ended December 31, 2021. On March 1, 2022, OFS Capital’s Board of Directors declared a distribution of $0.28 per common share for the first quarter of 2022, a 12% increase compared to the prior quarter, payable on March 31, 2022 to stockholders of record as of March 24, 2022.
FOURTH QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Net investment income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $0.33 per common share, as compared to $0.24 for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to increased dividend and fee income.
Adjusted net investment income (“Adjusted NII”)(1) for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $0.47 per common share as compared to $0.25 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.
Net asset value (“NAV”) per share increased to $15.18 at December 31, 2021 from $14.16 at September 30, 2021 and $11.85 at December 31, 2020.
The net gain per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $0.94. The net gain per common share was largely attributable to realized and unrealized gains on equity securities.
Earnings per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 was $1.27 as compared to $0.98 per common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.
At December 31, 2021, based on fair value, 92% of our debt portfolio consisted of floating rate loans and 95% of our debt portfolio consisted of senior secured loans; 71% of our borrowings are fixed rate and mature in 2025 and beyond.

Management Commentary
“Based on strong origination activity and increased portfolio income, our fourth quarter net investment income increased to $0.33 per share, a 38% increase compared to the prior quarter. Fourth quarter adjusted net investment income increased to $0.47 per share, an 88% increase compared to the prior quarter”, said Bilal Rashid, OFS Capital’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are pleased to increase our distribution for the sixth straight quarter. Our NAV increased 28% from December 31, 2020 primarily due to net gains in the portfolio and now exceeds our 2019 year-end NAV by 22%. In an environment in which interest rates are rising, we believe our portfolio is well positioned with 92% of our debt portfolio consisting of floating rates.”

(1) Supplemental information regarding 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 basis other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (“GAAP”). Adjusted NII represents net investment income excluding the capital gains incentive fee in periods in which such expense occurs. GAAP requires recognition of a capital gains incentive fee in our financial statements if aggregate net realized and unrealized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from the date of the election to be a BDC through the reporting date is positive. Such fees are subject to further conditions specified in the investment advisory agreement with OFS Capital Management, LLC, principally related to the realization of such net gains, before OFS Capital Management, LLC is entitled to payment, and such recognized fees are subject to the risk of reversal should unrealized gains diminish to become losses. 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 the net gains, realized or unrealized, associated with the capital gains incentive fee.
Management believes Adjusted NII facilitates analysis of our results of operations and provides greater transparency into the determination of incentive fees. Adjusted NII is not meant as a substitute for net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in the context of the entirety of our reported results of operations, financial position and cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted NII is set forth in Schedule I to this press release.

Investment Income
For the three months ended December 31, 2021, total investment income increased by $4.7 million as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in dividend income of $1.8 million and an increase in other fee income of $1.6 million. Increased fee acceleration as a result of increased portfolio runoff also contributed to the increase.
Expenses
For the three months ended December 31, 2021, management and incentive fees increased $3.3 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in the Income Incentive Fee of $1.5 million and an increase in the Capital Gains Fee. The Capital Gains Fee is currently not payable under the terms of the Advisory Agreement but was calculated in accordance with GAAP which requires the inclusion of aggregate unrealized appreciation on investments.
Net Gain (Loss) on Investments
For the three months ended December 31, 2021, net gain on investments of $14.7 million was primarily due to unrealized appreciation of $10.1 million on our common equity investment in Pfanstiehl Holdings, Inc.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2021, we had $43.0 million of cash, which includes cash and cash equivalents of $15.0 million held by OFS SBIC I, LP (“SBIC I LP”), our wholly owned SBIC, and OFSCC-FS, LLC (“OFSCC-FS”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary. Our use of cash held by SBIC I LP and OFSCC-FS is restricted by regulatory and contractual conditions, including limitations on the amount of cash SBIC I LP and OFSCC-FS can distribute to us.
Additionally, at December 31, 2021, we had an unused commitment of $25.0 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility with Pacific Western Bank, as well as an unused commitment of $50.0 million under the revolving credit facility with BNP Paribas, both subject to borrowing base requirements and other covenants. Based on fair values and equity capital at December 31, 2021, we could access all unused commitments under our credit facilities and remain in compliance with 1940 Act asset coverage requirement.
On October 28, 2021 and November 1, 2021, OFS Capital issued $55.0 million unsecured notes (the “2028 Notes”) which bear a fixed interest rate of 4.95% and mature on October 31, 2028. OFS Capital utilized a portion of the proceeds from the 2028 Notes to redeem $25.0 million of unsecured notes which were originally scheduled to mature in September 2023 and bore an interest rate of 6.25%. On November 22, 2021, OFS Capital redeemed $54.3 million of unsecured notes that were originally scheduled to mature in October 2026 and bore an interest rate of 5.95%. As of December 31, 2021, OFS Capital has $180.0 million of unsecured notes (71.0% of total debt outstanding) which mature in 2025 and beyond.
On November 15, 2021, we amended our senior secured revolving credit facility with Pacific Western Bank to decrease the interest rate floor from 5.0% to 4.0%, effective as of November 1, 2021.

Schedule 1
Non-GAAP Financial Measure – Adjusted Net Investment Income
On a supplemental basis, we disclose Adjusted NII (including on a per share basis), which is a financial measure calculated and presented on basis other than in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted NII represents net investment income excluding the capital gains incentive fee in periods in which such expense occurs. GAAP requires recognition of a capital gains incentive fee in our financial statements if aggregate net realized and unrealized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from the date of the election to be a BDC through the reporting date is positive. Such fees are subject to further conditions specified in the investment advisory agreement with OFS Capital Management, LLC, principally related to the realization of such net gains, before OFS Capital Management, LLC is entitled to payment, and such recognized fees are subject to the risk of reversal should unrealized gains diminish to become losses. 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 the net gains, realized or unrealized, associated with the capital gains incentive fee. Management believes Adjusted NII facilitates analysis of our results of operations and provides greater transparency into the determination of incentive fees. Adjusted NII is not meant as a substitute for net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP and should be considered in the context of the entirety of our reported results of operations, financial position and cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP.
The following table provides a reconciliation from net investment income (the most comparable GAAP measure) to Adjusted NII for the three months ended and years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data) (unaudited):
