    Management Commentary

    “During 2022 we continued to redeploy proceeds from equity monetizations into income producing assets, growing our debt portfolio 38% and building our total portfolio on a fair value basis to a record $860.3 million. With the enhanced earnings power of our portfolio, we are positioned to increase adjusted NII well in excess of our now higher base dividend. In addition, our portfolio remains healthy and well-structured to generate risk-adjusted returns and preserve capital over the long term,” said Edward Ross, Chairman and CEO of Fidus Investment Corporation.

    (1) Supplemental information regarding adjusted net investment income:

    On a supplemental basis, we provide information relating to adjusted net investment income, which is a non-GAAP measure. This measure is provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net investment income. Adjusted net investment income represents net investment income excluding any capital gains incentive fee expense or (reversal) attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses. The management agreement with our investment adviser provides that a capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to cumulative realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such realized capital gains exceed realized and unrealized losses. In addition, we accrue, but do not pay, a capital gains incentive fee in connection with any unrealized capital appreciation, as appropriate. As such, we believe that adjusted net investment income is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any capital gains incentive fee expense or (reversal) attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of net investment income to adjusted net investment income are set forth in Schedule 1.

    The $3.4 million increase in total investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily attributable to (i) a $5.5 million increase in total interest income (which includes payment-in-kind interest income) resulting from an increase in average debt investment balances outstanding and an increase in weighted average yield on debt investment balances outstanding, (ii) a $1.1 million decrease in dividend income due to decreased levels of distributions received from equity investments, and (iii) a $1.6 million decrease in fee income resulting from a decrease in origination and amendment fees, partially offset by an increase in prepayment fees.

    For the three months ended December 31, 2022, total expenses, including the base management fee waivers and income tax provision, were $15.0 million, a decrease of $6.7 million, or (30.8%) from the $21.7 million of total expenses, including the base management fee waiver and income tax provision, for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily attributable to (i) a $0.2 million increase in interest and financing expenses, (ii) a $0.6 million net increase in base management fee, including the base management fee waiver, due to higher average total assets, (iii) a $0.4 million net increase in the income incentive fee and a $9.4 million decrease in capital gains incentive fee accrued, (iv) a $0.5 million increase in professional fees, and (v) a $0.9 million increase in excise tax provision.

    Net investment income increased by $10.1 million, or 410.0%, to $12.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021, as a result of the $6.7 million decrease in total expenses, including base management fee waiver and income tax provision and the $3.4 million increase in total investment income. Adjusted net investment income,(1) which excludes the capital gains incentive fee accrual, was $0.51 per share compared to $0.49 per share in the prior year.

    For the three months ended December 31, 2022, the total net realized gain/(loss) on investments, net of income tax (provision)/benefit on realized gains and income tax (provision) from deemed distribution of long term capital gains, was $(9.9) million, as compared to total net realized gain/(loss) on investments, net of income tax (provision)/benefit on realized gains and income tax (provision) from deemed distribution of long term capital gains, of $39.9 million for the same period in 2021.

    The $3.7 million increase in total investment income for the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 was primarily attributable to (i) a $6.6 million increase in total interest income resulting from an increase in average debt investment balances outstanding and a higher weighted average yield on debt investment balances outstanding, partially offset by repayments of payment-in-kind debt investments and an increase in payment-in-kind investments on non-accrual, (ii) a $1.0 million decrease in dividend income due to decreased levels of distributions received from equity investments, and (iii) a $2.4 million decrease in fee income resulting from a decrease in origination, management and prepayment fee income.

Adjusted net investment income,(1) which excludes the capital gains incentive fee accrual, increased by $2.8 million, or 6.5%, to $46.1 million.

    For the year ended December 31, 2022, the total net realized gain on investments, net of income tax provision on realized gains and income tax provision from deemed distribution of long term capital gains, was $55.2 million, as compared to total net realized gain on investments, net of income tax provision on realized gains and income tax provision from deemed distribution of long term capital gains, of $53.8 million for the same period in 2021.

    Portfolio and Investment Activities

    As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of our investment portfolio totaled $860.3 million and consisted of 76 active portfolio companies and two portfolio companies that have sold their underlying operations. Our total portfolio investments at fair value were approximately 103.8% of the related cost basis as of December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, the debt investments of 43 portfolio companies bore interest at a variable rate, which represented $522.9 million, or 70.6%, of our debt investment portfolio on a fair value basis, and the remainder of our debt investment portfolio was comprised of fixed rate investments. As of December 31, 2022, our average active portfolio company investment at amortized cost was $10.9 million, which excludes investments in the two portfolio companies that have sold their underlying operations. The weighted average yield on debt investments was 13.8% as of December 31, 2022. The weighted average yield was computed using the effective interest rates for debt investments at cost as of December 31, 2022, including the accretion of original issue discounts and loan origination fees, but excluding investments on non-accrual status and investments recorded as a secured borrowing, if any.

As of December 31, 2022, the weighted average interest rate on total debt outstanding was 4.0%.

    Subsequent Events

    On February 23, 2023, we invested $11.0 million in first lien debt and common equity of USG AS Holdings, LLC, a leading provider of water asset management services for small and medium public water utilities in North America.

    On February 27, 2023, we issued an additional $4.0 million in SBA debentures, which will bear interest at a fixed interim interest rate of 5.344% until the pooling date in March 2023.

    First Quarter 2023 Dividends Totaling $0.66 Per Share Declared

    On February 15, 2023, our board of directors declared a base dividend of $0.41 per share, a supplemental dividend of $0.15 per share, and a special dividend of $0.10 per share for the first quarter. The dividends will be payable on March 29, 2023, to stockholders of record as of March 22, 2023.

    When declaring dividends, our board of directors reviews estimates of taxable income available for distribution, which differs from consolidated income under GAAP due to (i) changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation, (ii) temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition, and (iii) the amount of undistributed taxable income carried over from a given year for distribution in the following year. The final determination of 2023 taxable income, as well as the tax attributes for 2023 dividends, will be made after the close of the 2023 tax year. The final tax attributes for 2023 dividends will generally include ordinary taxable income but may also include capital gains, qualified dividends and return of capital.

    Fidus has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of dividends on behalf of its stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, when we declare a cash dividend, stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP at least two days prior to the dividend payment date will have their cash dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. Those stockholders whose shares are held by a broker or other financial intermediary may receive dividends in cash by notifying their broker or other financial intermediary of their election.

    Schedule 1

    Supplemental Information Regarding Adjusted Net Investment Income

    On a supplemental basis, we provide information relating to adjusted net investment income, which is a non-GAAP measure. This measure is provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net investment income. Adjusted net investment income represents net investment income excluding any capital gains incentive fee expense or (reversal) attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses. The management agreement with our investment advisor provides that a capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to cumulative realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such realized capital gains exceed realized and unrealized losses for such year, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains incentive fees paid in all prior years. In addition, we accrue, but do not pay, a capital gains incentive fee in connection with any unrealized capital appreciation, as appropriate. As such, we believe that adjusted net investment income is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any capital gains incentive fee expense or (reversal) attributable to realized and unrealized gains and losses. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides a reconciliation of net investment income to adjusted net investment income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

    (1) Adjusted net investment income per share amounts are calculated as adjusted net investment income dividend by weighted average shares outstanding for the period. Due to rounding, the sum of net investment income per share and capital gains incentive fee expense (reversal) amounts may not equal the adjusted net investment income per share amount presented here.
