(1)We do not “control” and are not an “affiliate” of any of our portfolio companies, each as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). In general, under the 1940 Act, we would be presumed to “control” a portfolio company if we owned 25% or more of its voting securities and would be an “affiliate” of a portfolio company if we owned 5% or more of its voting securities.
(2)Fair value is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Fund.
(3)Notes bear interest at variable rates.
(4)Cost value reflects accretion of original issue discount or market discount.
(5)Cost value reflects accretion of effective yield less any cash distributions received or entitled to be received from CLO equity investments.
(6)The CLO secured notes generally bear interest at a rate determined by reference to three-month LIBOR which resets quarterly.
(7)The CLO subordinated notes and income notes are considered equity positions in the CLO funds. Equity investments are entitled to recurring distributions which are generally equal to the remaining cash flow of the payments made by the underlying fund’s securities less contractual payments to debt holders and fund expenses. The estimated yield indicated is based upon a current projection of the amount and timing of these recurring distributions and the estimated amount of repayment of principal upon expected termination. Such projections are periodically reviewed and adjusted, and the estimated yield may not ultimately be realized.
(8)Fair value represents discounted cash flows associated with fees earned from CLO equity investments.
(9)Investment has not made its inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. See “Note 3. Investment Income.”

(10)These represent enhancements to the return on CLO equity investments and are a rebate on a portion of the collateral manager’s fees and are recorded as “other income” when earned. These investments can either be in the form of CLO M notes and CLO subordinated fee notes (which are outlined within the CLO indenture), or in the form of a negotiated side letter to the CLO indenture (“Other CLO equity related investments”).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. INVESTMENT VALUATION

 

Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (“OXLC”, “we” or the “Fund”) fair values its investment portfolio in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. Estimates made in the preparation of OXLC’s financial statements include the valuation of investments, as well as the related amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded. OXLC believes that there is no single definitive method for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments OXLC makes.

 

ASC 820-10 clarified the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. OXLC considers the attributes of current market conditions on an on-going basis and has determined that due to the general illiquidity of the market for its investment portfolio, whereby little or no market data exists; almost all of OXLC’s investments are based upon “Level 3” inputs as of June 30, 2016.

 

Collateralized Loan Obligations — Debt and Equity

 

OXLC has acquired debt and equity positions in collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) investment vehicles and has purchased CLO warehouse facilities. These investments are special purpose financing vehicles. In valuing such investments, OXLC considers the operating metrics of the specific investment vehicle, including compliance with collateralization tests, defaulted and restructured securities, and payment defaults, if any. In addition, OXLC considers the indicative prices provided by a recognized industry pricing service as a primary source, and the implied yield of such prices, supplemented by actual trades executed in the market at or around period-end, as well as the indicative prices provided by the broker who arranges transactions in such investment vehicles. OXLC also considers those instances in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require a downward adjustment to the indicative price representing substantially all of the pending distribution. Additional factors include any available information on other relevant transactions including firm bids and offers in the market and information resulting from bids-wanted-in-competition. Oxford Lane Management, LLC (“OXLC Management”) or the Board of Directors may request an additional analysis by a third-party firm to assist in the valuation process of CLO investment vehicles. All information is presented to the Board of Directors for its determination of fair value of these investments.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2. FAIR VALUE – (continued)

 

(1)The Fund generally uses non-binding indicative bid prices (“NBIB”) provided by an independent pricing service or broker on or near the valuation date as the primary basis for the fair value determinations for CLO debt and equity investments, which may be adjusted for pending equity distributions as of valuation date. These bid prices are non-binding, and may not be determinative of fair value. Each bid price is evaluated by the Board of Directors in conjunction with additional information compiled by OXLC Management, including performance and covenant compliance information as provided by the independent trustee.
(2)Represents a single investment fair value position, and therefore the range/weighted average is not applicable.
(3)The Fund will calculate the fair value of certain CLO equity investments based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle. Oxford Lane will also consider those investments in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require an adjustment to the transaction price representing substantially all of the pending distribution.
(4)Weighted averages are calculated based on fair value of investments.

 

Significant increases or decreases in any of the unobservable inputs in isolation may result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

 

NOTE 3. INVESTMENT INCOME

 

Income from securitization vehicles and equity investments

 

Income from securitization vehicles and equity investments in the equity class securities of CLO vehicles (typically income notes, subordinated notes or preference shares) is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, based upon a calculation of the effective yield to the expected redemption date based on an estimate of future cash flows, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. The Fund monitors the expected residual payments, and effective yield is determined and updated quarterly, as needed. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from both the tax-basis investment income and from the cash distributions actually received by the Fund during the period.

 

The Fund also records income on its investments in CLO warehouse facilities based on a stated rate per the underlying note purchase agreement or an estimated rate.

 

Interest Income – Debt Investments

 

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis using the contractual rate applicable to each debt investment and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.

 

Generally, when interest and/or principal payments on a loan become past due, or if the Fund otherwise does not expect the borrower to be able to service its debt and other obligations, the Fund will place the loan on non-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Fund generally restores non-accrual loans to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in the Fund’s judgment, the payments are likely to remain current. As of June 30, 2016, the Fund had no non-accrual assets held in its portfolio.

 

Other Income

 

Other income includes distributions from CLO M notes, CLO subordinated fee notes, Other CLO equity related investments, and success fees associated with portfolio investments. Distributions from CLO M notes, CLO subordinated fee notes, and Other CLO equity related investments are an enhancement to the return on a CLO equity investment and are a rebate on a portion of the collateral manager’s fees, and are recorded as other income when earned. The Fund may also earn success fees associated with its investments in CLO warehouse facilities, which are contingent upon a take-out of the warehouse by a permanent CLO structure; such fees are earned and recognized when the take-out is completed.

NOTE 4. U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

 

The Fund intends to operate so as to qualify to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the U.S. Tax Code (the “Code”) and, as such, to not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of its taxable income and gains distributed to stockholders. To be subject to pass-through tax treatment as a RIC, OXLC is required to distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income annually, meet asset diversification requirements quarterly and file Form 1120-RIC, as defined by the Code.

 

We follow the provisions under the authoritative guidance on accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax positions. The provisions require us to determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than not threshold, the tax amount recognized in the financial statements is reduced by the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority. There are no unrecognized tax benefits or obligations in the accompanying financial statements. Although we file U.S. federal and state tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is U.S. federal. Our U.S. federal tax years from 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.

 

Because U.S. federal income tax regulations differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.

 

Differences between distributions and net investment income may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. Our distribution policy is based upon our estimate of our distributable net investment income, which includes actual distributions from our CLO equity class investments, with further consideration given to our realized gains or losses on a taxable basis.

 

As of June 30, 2016, the cost and net unrealized depreciation of securities on a tax basis were as follows:

 

Cost for federal income tax purposes  $351,300,711 
Gross unrealized appreciation  $8,585,337 
      
Gross unrealized depreciation   (96,306,456)
Net unrealized depreciation  $(87,721,119)

 

 

 

 

Item 2. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a)     Based on an evaluation of the Disclosure Controls and Procedures (as defined in Rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the “Disclosure Controls”) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date (the “Filing Date”) of this Form N-Q (the “Report”), the Chief Executive Officer (its principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (its principal financial officer) have concluded that the Disclosure Controls are reasonably designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Registrant in the Report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by the Filing Date, including ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Report is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's management, including the Registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

(b)    There were no changes in the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) that occurred during the Registrant’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Item 3. Exhibits.
