THE FOLLOWING ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES THERETO CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT. OVERVIEW The Company was incorporated under the General Corporation Laws of the State of Maryland on May 30, 2001. The Company's investment objectives are to achieve a high level of current income by investing in debt securities, consisting primarily of senior notes, senior subordinated notes and junior subordinated notes, of established private businesses that are backed by leveraged buyout funds, venture capital funds or others, with a particular emphasis on senior subordinated notes. In addition, the Company may acquire existing loans that meet this Page 8 profile from leveraged buyout funds, venture capital funds and others. The Company will also seek to provide its stockholders with long-term capital growth through the appreciation in the value of warrants or other equity instruments that it may receive when it makes loans. The Company operates as a closed-end, non-diversified management investment company, and has elected to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Company targets small and medium sized businesses that meet certain criteria, including (1) the potential for growth in cash flow, (2) adequate assets for loan collateral, (3) experienced management teams with significant ownership interest in the borrower, (4) profitable operations based on the borrower's cash flow, (5) reasonable capitalization of the borrower (usually by leveraged buyout funds or venture capital funds) and (6) the potential for us to realize appreciation and gain liquidity in the Company's equity position. The Company anticipates that this liquidity will be achieved through a merger or acquisition of the borrower, a public offering by the borrower or by the Company exercising its right to require the borrower to buy back its warrants. The Company expects to make loans to borrowers that need funds to finance growth, restructure their balance sheets or effect a change of control. As a business development company, the Company will make available significant managerial assistance to its portfolio companies. Such assistance will typically involve closely monitoring the operations of each company, participating in its board and management meetings, being available for consultation with its officers and providing organizational and financial guidance. The Company expects that its loans typically will range from $5 million to $15 million, mature in no more than seven years, and accrue interest at a fixed rate or an annualized variable rate that exceeds the prime rate. The Company expects that most if not all of the debt securities it acquires will be unrated. To the extent possible, the Company's loans generally will be collateralized by a security interest in the borrower's assets. Interest payments will generally be made monthly or quarterly with amortization of principal generally being deferred for several years. The principal amount of the loans and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at maturity at five to seven years. The Company will focus on making loans accompanied by warrants to purchase stock in the borrowers. These warrants will typically have a nominal exercise price and entitle the Company to purchase a modest percentage of the borrower's stock. To date, the Company has not made any investments, although it has entered into non-binding commitments to lend up to $72 million to six companies. These loans are subject to, among other things, the satisfactory completion of the Company's due diligence investigation of each borrower, acceptance of terms and structure and necessary consents. With respect to each of these non-binding commitments, the Company will only agree to provide the loan if, among other things, the results of its due diligence investigations are satisfactory, the terms and conditions of the loan are acceptable and all necessary consents are received. If, for any reason, the Company does not desire to make one of the loans, it will not be obligated to do so. Similarly, none of the potential borrowers is obligated to receive a loan from the Company. The Company's management has initiated its due diligence investigations of the potential borrower, Page 9 however, there can be no assurance that the Company will not discover facts in the course of completing its due diligence that would render a particular investment imprudent or that any of these loans will actually be made. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company did not have any significant operations prior to the completion of its initial public offering on August 29, 2001. Accordingly, the Company's financial performance at June 30, 2001 is primarily composed of organization costs and costs associated with its initial public offering, including among other things, legal services. For the period ended June 30, 2001, Company incurred approximately $39,000 in professional fees in connection with the Company's organization. FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At June 30, 2001, the Company had no investments in portfolio securities of any companies. At June 30, 2001, the Company had approximately $653,000 of total assets. Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $653,000 for the period ending June 30, 2001. These amounts consisted entirely of the proceeds of the sale of stock to David Gladstone on May 30, 2001 in connection with the formation of the Company. On August 29, 2001, the Company received approximately $130 million (net of underwriting discounts and offering expenses) in connection with the consummation of its initial public offering. The Company currently has non-binding commitments to make six loans in an aggregate amount of approximately $72 million. Each non-binding loan commitment is conditioned upon, among other things, the satisfactory completion of the Company's due diligence investigations of each borrower, the acceptance of terms and structure and receipt of necessary consents. In many instances, the loans will also require prior approval of the borrower's other lenders. In order to qualify as a regulated investment company and to avoid corporate level tax on the income the Company distributes to its stockholders, the Company is required, under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary income and short-term capital gains on an annual basis. While the Company provides stockholders with the option of reinvesting their distributions in more common stock, the Company anticipates borrowing funds to obtain additional capital once the proceeds of its initial public offering have been fully invested. The Company currently intends to pursue a strategy of securitizing its loan portfolio in approximately 12 to 18 months. The Company would use the cash it receives upon the sale of interests in its loans to repay bank borrowings and make additional loans. There can be no assurance that this securitization strategy will be successful. Page 10 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company is subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. The Company expects that approximately 50% of the loans in its portfolio will be made at fixed rates, with approximately 50% made at variable rates. To date, the Company has not yet made any loans and substantially all of the proceeds of the Company's assets are invested in money market instruments. The Company also expects to borrow funds in order to finance future lending activities after it has substantially fully invested the proceeds of its initial public offering. These future borrowings may be at fixed rates or variable rates. To date, the Company has not yet borrowed any funds. The Company expects to hedge against interest rate fluctuations in the future by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts. While hedging activities may insulate the Company against adverse fluctuations in interest rates, they may also limit the Company's ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to its portfolio of investments. PART II--OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. Neither the Company nor its subsidiary is currently subject to any material legal proceeding, nor, to the Company's knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against the Company or its subsidiary. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. On May 30, 2001, the Company issued and sold 43,508 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $652,631 to Mr. Gladstone, the Company's chairman and chief executive officer. The Company issued these shares to Mr. Gladstone in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. On August 23, 2001, the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 586,670 shares of common stock to seven of its officers upon the exercise of options granted under the Company's Amended and Restated 2001 Equity Incentive Plan. Each of the officers exercised their options by delivering a promissory note for the full purchase price. The total principal amount of all of the promissory notes was $8.8 million. The Company issued these shares in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. Page 11 USE OF PROCEEDS FROM INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING On August 23, 2001, the Company's Registration Statement on Form N-2 (SEC File No. 333-63700), for the initial public offering of 8,200,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, became effective. All 8,200,000 shares were sold upon completion of the initial public offering at an aggregate offering price of $123,000,000, reflecting an offering price of $15 per share. UBS Warburg LLC, First Union Securities, Inc., Robertson Stephens, Inc., BB&T Capital Markets/Scott & Stringfellow, Inc. and Ferris, Baker Watts, Incorporated acted as managing underwriters for the initial public offering. In connection with the initial public offering, the Company registered and offered the underwriters an option to purchase an additional 1,230,000 shares of common stock at the $15 per share offering price. The underwriters exercised this option on August 24, 2001. The gross proceeds from the exercise of this option were $18,450,000. Underwriting discounts and commissions for the shares sold in the initial public offering (including the shares sold upon the exercise of the over-allotment option) totaled $9,901,500. In connection with the initial public offering, the Company incurred estimated expenses of approximately $1,000,000. None of these expenses were paid directly or indirectly to the Company's directors, officers or associates, or to persons owning 10% or more of the Company's common stock or other affiliates. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $130 million from the initial public offering. The primary purposes of the initial public offering was to obtain capital with which to make loans to small and medium businesses. To date, the Company has not made any such loans. Accordingly, substantially all of the net proceeds from the initial public offering have been invested in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing instruments. ITEM 3.
