BLACKROCK TCP CAPITAL CORP. ANNOUNCES 2024 FINANCIAL RESULTS INCLUDING FOURTH QUARTER NET INVESTMENT INCOME OF $0.40 PER SHARE; DECLARES FIRST QUARTER DIVIDEND OF $0.25 PER SHARE AND A SPECIAL DIVIDEND OF $0.04 PER SHARE

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

On a GAAP basis, net investment income for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $33.8 million, or $0.40 per share on a diluted basis, which exceeded the regular dividend of $0.34 per share paid on December 31, 2024. Excluding amortization of purchase discount recorded in connection with the Merger(1), adjusted net investment income(1) for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $30.8 million, or $0.36 per share on a diluted basis. Adjusted net investment income(1) for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $121.5 million, or $1.52 per share on a diluted basis.
Net asset value per share was $9.23 as of December 31, 2024 compared to $10.11 as of September 30, 2024.
Net decrease in net assets from operations on a GAAP basis for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $38.6 million, or $0.45 per share, compared to a $21.6 million, or $0.25 per share, net decrease in net assets from operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Total acquisitions during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 were approximately $120.7 million and total investment dispositions were $168.6 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, debt investments on non-accrual status represented 5.6% of the portfolio at fair value and 14.4% at cost, compared to 3.8% of the portfolio at fair value and 9.3% at cost as of September 30, 2024.
On February 25, 2025, the Adviser voluntarily agreed to waive one-third of its base management fee with respect to the Company for three calendar quarters beginning on January 1, 2025 and ending on September 30, 2025.

 

 

On February 27, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a first quarter dividend of $0.25 per share and a special dividend of $0.04 per share, both payable on March 31, 2025 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 17, 2025. The Company intends to declare a special dividend of at least $0.02 per share of common stock in each of the second and third quarters of 2025, subject to Board approval.

“We delivered adjusted net investment income of $1.52 per share in 2024, reflecting higher non-accruals as well as the impact of lower base rates and higher expenses. While the vast majority of our portfolio continued to perform well, we are working closely with our borrowers and sponsors to resolve the portfolio issues that impacted our results in recent quarters.

TCPC’s new management team remains optimistic about our future prospects and is confident we have the right plan in place to effectively navigate the challenges presented during 2024 and to return the portfolio performance to historical levels, said Phil Tseng, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock TCP Capital Corp.

Given our recent performance, our board declared a regular dividend of $0.25 per share for the first quarter 2025, which we believe is a sustainable level. In addition, our board declared a $0.04 special dividend for the first quarter. We intend to declare a special dividend of at least $0.02 in each of the second and third quarters of 2025, subject to Board approval. We appreciate our shareholders’ support and have taken additional steps to further align our interests,” Tseng concluded.

(1) On March 18, 2024, the Company completed its previously announced merger with BlackRock Capital Investment Corporation (“Merger”). The Merger has been accounted for as an asset acquisition of BlackRock Capital Investment Corporation (“BCIC”) by the Company in accordance with the asset acquisition method of accounting as detailed in ASC 805-50 (“ASC 805”), Business Combinations-Related Issues. The Company determined the fair value of the shares of the Company’s common stock that were issued to former BCIC shareholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement plus transaction costs to be the consideration paid in connection with the Merger under ASC 805. The consideration paid to BCIC shareholders was less than the aggregate fair values of the BCIC assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which resulted in a purchase discount (the “purchase discount”). The consideration paid was allocated to the individual BCIC assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the relative fair values of net identifiable assets acquired other than “non-qualifying” assets and liabilities (for example, cash) and did not give rise to goodwill. As a result, the purchase discount was allocated to the cost basis of the BCIC investments acquired by the Company on a pro-rata basis based on their relative fair values as of the effective time of the Merger. Immediately following the Merger, the investments were marked to their respective fair values in

 

 

accordance with ASC 820 which resulted in immediate recognition of net unrealized appreciation in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as a result of the Merger. The purchase discount allocated to the BCIC debt investments acquired will amortize over the remaining life of each respective debt investment through interest income, with a corresponding adjustment recorded to unrealized appreciation or depreciation on such investment acquired through its ultimate disposition. The purchase discount allocated to BCIC equity investments acquired will not amortize over the life of such investments through interest income and, assuming no subsequent change to the fair value of the equity investments acquired and disposition of such equity investments at fair value, the Company may recognize a realized gain or loss with a corresponding reversal of the unrealized appreciation on disposition of such equity investments acquired.

As a supplement to the Company’s reported GAAP financial measures, we have provided the following non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are useful:

“Adjusted net investment income” – excludes the amortization of purchase accounting discount from net investment income calculated in accordance with GAAP;
“Adjusted net realized and unrealized gain (loss)” – excludes the unrealized appreciation resulting from the purchase discount and the corresponding reversal of the unrealized appreciation from the amortization of the purchase discount from the determination of net realized and unrealized gain (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP; and
“Adjusted net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations” – calculates net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations based on Adjusted net investment income and Adjusted net realized and unrealized gain (loss).

 

We believe that the adjustment to exclude the full effect of purchase discount accounting under ASC 805 from these financial measures is meaningful because of the potential impact on the comparability of these financial measures that we and investors use to assess our financial condition and results of operations period over period. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are intended to enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. The aforementioned non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

 

 

 

PORTFOLIO AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITY

As of December 31, 2024, our consolidated investment portfolio consisted of debt and equity positions in 154 portfolio companies with a total fair value of approximately $1.8 billion, of which 91.2% was in senior secured debt. 83.6% of the total portfolio was first lien. Equity positions, which include equity interests in diversified portfolios of debt, represented approximately 8.5% of the portfolio. 94.5% of our debt investments were floating rate, 97.5% of which had interest rate floors.

As of December 31, 2024, the weighted average annual effective yield of our debt portfolio was approximately 12.4%(1) and the weighted average annual effective yield of our total portfolio was approximately 11.1%, compared with 13.4% and 11.9%, respectively, as of September 30, 2024. Debt investments in twelve portfolio companies were on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2024, representing 5.6% of the consolidated portfolio at fair value and 14.4% at cost.

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, we invested approximately $120.7 million, primarily in 9 investments, comprised of 9 new and 9 existing portfolio companies. Of these investments, $119.3 million, or 98.8% of total acquisitions, were in senior secured loans. The remaining $1.4 million, or 1.2% of total acquisitions, were comprised of equity investments. Additionally, we received approximately $168.6 million in proceeds from sales or repayments of investments during the three months ended December 31, 2024. New investments during the quarter had a weighted average effective yield of 10.8%. Investments we exited had a weighted average effective yield of 14.0%.

As of December 31, 2024, total assets were $1.9 billion, net assets were $785.1 million and net asset value per share was $9.23, as compared to $2.0 billion, $865.6 million, and $10.11 per share, respectively, as of September 30, 2024.

 

(1) Weighted average annual effective yield includes amortization of deferred debt origination and accretion of original issue discount, but excludes market discount and any prepayment and make-whole fee income. The weighted average effective yield on our debt portfolio excludes non-accrual and non-income producing loans.

 

 

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was approximately $61.2 million, or $0.72 per share. Investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 included $0.06 per share from prepayment premiums and related accelerated original issue discount and exit fee amortization, $0.04 per share from recurring portfolio investment original issue discount and exit fee amortization, $0.08 per share from interest income paid in kind and $0.03 per share in dividend income. This reflects our policy of recording interest income, adjusted for amortization of portfolio investment premiums and discounts, on an accrual basis. Origination, structuring, closing, commitment, and similar upfront fees received in connection with the outlay of capital are generally amortized into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment.

Total operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were approximately $26.9 million, or $0.32 per share, including interest and other debt expenses of $18.0 million, or $0.21 per share. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s cumulative total return did not exceed the total return hurdle, and as a result, no incentive compensation was accrued for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Excluding interest and other debt expenses, annualized third quarter expenses were 4.2% of average net assets.

Net investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was approximately $33.8 million, or $0.40 per share. Net realized losses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were $0.0 million, or $0.00 per share. Net unrealized losses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were $72.3 million, or $0.85 per share.

Net decrease in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $38.6 million, or $0.45 per share.

On February 27, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a new dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”) for the Company. The DRIP was effective as of, and will apply to the reinvestment of cash distributions with a record date after March 18, 2024. Under the DRIP, shareholders will automatically receive cash dividends and distributions unless they “opt in” to the DRIP and elect to have their dividends and distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the former shareholders of BCIC that participated in the BCIC dividend reinvestment plan at the time of the Merger have been automatically enrolled in the Company’s DRIP and will have their shares reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock on future distributions, unless they “opt out” of the DRIP. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, approximately $2.3 million of cash distributions were reinvested for electing Participants through purchase of shares in the open market in accordance with the terms of the DRIP.

 

 

The Company Repurchase Plan was re-approved on April 24, 2024, to be in effect through the earlier of April 30, 2025, unless further extended or terminated by the Company’s Board of Directors, or such time as the approved $50.0 million repurchase amount has been fully utilized, subject to certain conditions.
