Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

We are a BDC that seeks to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and income-generating equity investments, including investments in specialty finance businesses. To achieve our investment objective, we invest in secured and senior secured debt instruments of middle market companies, as well as income-generating equity investments in specialty finance companies, that we believe offer sufficient downside protection and have the potential to generate attractive returns. We generally define middle market companies as companies with enterprise values between $100 million and $2 billion. We also make investments throughout other portions of a company’s capital structure, including subordinated debt, mezzanine debt, and equity or equity‑linked securities. We source these transactions directly with issuers and in the secondary markets through relationships with industry professionals.

In December 2021, Great Elm Specialty Finance, LLC (“GESF"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of GECC, was formed to oversee specialty finance related investments, and Michael Keller, a seasoned professional with significant experience in specialty finance, was appointed President of GESF. We believe investments in specialty finance companies along the “continuum of lending” provide durable risk adjusted returns that are expected to be largely uncorrelated to the liquid credit markets. The “continuum of lending” as seen by Great Elm Capital Management, Inc. (“GECM”) is the various stages of capital that are provided to under-banked small and medium sized businesses and includes, but is not limited to inventory and purchase order financing, receivables factoring, asset-based and asset-backed lending, and equipment financing. GECM believes that ownership interests in multiple specialty finance companies will create a natural competitive advantage for each business and generate both revenue and cost synergies across companies.

On September 27, 2016, we and GECM, our external investment manager, entered into an investment management agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) and an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”), and we began to accrue obligations to our external investment manager under those agreements. On August 1, 2022, upon receiving our stockholders' approval, we and GECM entered into an amendment to the Investment Management Agreement to reset the capital gains incentive fee to begin on April 1, 2022, which eliminated $163.2 million of realized and unrealized losses incurred prior to April 1, 2022 in calculating future incentive fees. In addition, the incentive fee based on income was amended to reset the mandatory deferral commencement date used in calculating deferred incentive fees to April 1, 2022. The Investment Management Agreement renews for successive annual periods, subject to requisite approvals from our board of directors (our “Board”) and/or stockholders.

We have elected to be treated as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, we will not be taxed on our income to the extent that we distribute such income each year and satisfy other applicable income tax requirements. To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and annually distribute to our stockholders generally at least 90% of our investment company taxable income on a timely basis. If we qualify as a RIC, we generally will not have to pay corporate level taxes on any income that we distribute to our stockholders.

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including, among others, the amount of debt and equity capital available from other sources to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, pricing in the high yield and leveraged loan credit markets, our expectations of future investment opportunities, the general economic environment as well as the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.

As a BDC, our investments and the composition of our portfolio are required to comply with regulatory requirements.

Revenues

We generate revenue primarily from interest on the debt investments that we hold. We may also generate revenue from dividends on the equity investments that we hold, capital gains on the disposition of investments, and lease, fee, and other income. Our investments in fixed income instruments generally have an expected maturity of three to five years, although we have no lower or upper constraint on maturity. Our debt investments generally pay interest quarterly or semi-annually. Payments of principal of our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt investments and preferred stock investments may defer payments of cash interest or dividends or payment-in-kind (“PIK”). In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment fees, commitment, origination, due diligence fees, end-of-term or exit fees, fees for providing significant managerial assistance, consulting fees and other investment-related income.

3

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of a base management fee, administration fees (including the allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement), and, depending on our operating results, an incentive fee. The base management fee and incentive fee remunerates GECM for work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. The Administration Agreement provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses incurred for office space rental, office equipment and utilities allocable to us under the Administration Agreement, as well as certain costs and expenses incurred relating to non-investment advisory, administrative or operating services provided by GECM or its affiliates to us. We also bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions. In addition, our expenses include interest on our outstanding indebtedness.

Critical Accounting Policies

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

We value our portfolio investments at fair value based upon the principles and methods of valuation set forth in policies adopted by our Board. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset that (1) are independent of us; (2) are knowledgeable, having a reasonable understanding about the asset based on all available information (including information that might be obtained through due diligence efforts that are usual and customary); (3) are able to transact for the asset; and (4) are willing to transact for the asset (that is, they are motivated but not forced or otherwise compelled to do so).

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations unless the quotations are deemed not to represent fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, are valued at fair value using a valuation process consistent with our Board-approved policy.

Our Board approves in good faith the valuation of our portfolio as of the end of each quarter. Due to the inherent uncertainty and subjectivity of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events may impact the market quotations used to value some of our investments.

Those investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in determining the fair value of our investments include, as relevant and among other factors: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables; applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights and the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, and merger and acquisition comparables; and enterprise values.

We prefer the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in our valuation process. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Both observable and unobservable inputs are subject to some level of uncertainty and assumptions used bear the risk of change in the future. We utilize the best information available to us, including the factors listed above, in preparing the fair valuations. In determining the fair value of any individual investment, we may use multiple inputs or utilize more than one approach to calculate the fair value to assess the sensitivity to change and determine a reasonable range of fair value. In addition, our valuation procedures include an assessment of the current valuation as compared to the previous valuation for each investment and where differences are material understanding the primary drivers of those changes, incorporating updates to our current valuation inputs and approaches as appropriate.

Revenue Recognition

Interest and dividend income, including PIK income, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees, including original issue discounts (“OID”), earned with respect to capital commitments are generally amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment, as are end-of-term or exit fees receivable upon repayment of a debt investment if such fees are fixed in nature. Other fees, including certain amendment fees, prepayment fees and commitment fees on broken deals, and end-of-term or exit fees that have a contingency feature or are variable in nature are recognized as earned. Prepayment fees and similar income due upon the early repayment of a loan or debt security are recognized when earned and are included in interest income.

We may purchase debt investments at a discount to their face value. Discounts on the acquisition of corporate debt instruments are generally amortized using the effective-interest or constant-yield method unless there are material questions as to collectability.

We assess the outstanding accrued income receivables for collectability at least quarterly, or more frequently if there is an event that indicates the underlying portfolio company may not be able to make the expected payments. If it is determined that amounts are not likely to be paid we may establish a reserve against or reverse the income and put the investment on non-accrual status.

Net Realized Gains (Losses) and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale of an investment and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized. Realized gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method.

Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the net change in portfolio investment fair values and portfolio investment cost bases during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

(1)The per share amounts are based on a weighted average of 7,601,958 outstanding common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

(2)The per share amounts are based on a weighted average of 5,194,910 and 4,878,439 outstanding common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. These weighted average share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022.

Investment income consists of interest income, including net amortization of premium and accretion of discount on loans and debt securities, dividend income and other income, which primarily consists of amendment fees, commitment fees and funding fees on loans.

Interest income increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to growth of the portfolio and rising interest rates. As of June 30, 2023, the debt investment portfolio had an average coupon rate of 12.3% on approximately $217.5 million of principal as compared to 9.8% on approximately $161.0 million of principal as of June 30, 2022, excluding positions on non-accrual in each period.

Dividend income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year due to lower quarterly distributions from our investments in specialty finance portfolio companies and exits from certain preferred equity positions.

The increase in other income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 is attributable to earning approximately $0.8 million per quarter in fees in connection with the extensions of certain revolver commitments.

(1)The per share amounts are based on a weighted average of 7,601,958 outstanding common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

(2)The per share amounts are based on a weighted average of 5,194,910 and 4,878,439 outstanding common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. These weighted average share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022.

Expenses are largely comprised of advisory fees and administration fees paid to GECM and interest expense on our outstanding notes payable. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources.” Advisory fees include management fees and incentive fees calculated in accordance with the Investment Management Agreement, and administration fees include direct costs reimbursable to GECM under the Administration Agreement and fees paid for sub-administration services.

Incentive fees increased for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to increased pre-incentive net investment income over the same periods. In addition, GECM waived all accrued and unpaid incentive fees pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, there were approximately $4.9 million of accrued and unpaid incentive fees held on our balance sheet. In connection with the incentive fee waiver, we recognized the reversal of these accrued and unpaid incentive fees during the period ended March 31, 2022, resulting in a corresponding increase in net asset value (“NAV”) in such period. The incentive fee waiver is not subject to recapture.

Professional services costs increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily due to increased legal expenses associated with specific transaction matters, as well as general rate increases for professional services including legal and accounting costs.

(1)The per share amounts are based on a weighted average of 7,601,958 outstanding common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023.

(2)The per share amounts are based on a weighted average of 5,194,910 and 4,878,439 outstanding common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. These weighted average share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net realized gains were primarily driven by the sales of our investments in the Perforce Software, Inc. (“Perforce”) first lien secured revolver and Equitrans Midstream Corp. preferred equity on which we realized gains of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, net realized gains were primarily driven by sales of our investments in Crestwood Equity Partners LP preferred equity, the paydown of our investment in Par Petroleum, LLC first lien secured bond and the sale of our investment in the Perforce first lien secured revolver resulting in realized gains of $0.7 million, $0.4 million, and $0.3 million, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, net realized losses were primarily driven by the restructuring of our investment in Avanti Communications Group plc (“Avanti”), which included the write off of our investments in the Avanti second lien bonds, 1.5 lien loan and common equity resulting in realization of $110 million in previously recognized unrealized losses. Gross realized gains include $0.9 million and $0.6 million realized on the refinancing of our investment in Tensar Corporation 2nd lien secured loan and the sale of the GAC Holdco Inc. warrants, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, gross realized losses included the losses recognized as a result of the Avanti restructuring discussed above along with additional losses of $15.9 million and $4.2 million recognized on the sale of our positions in Tru (UK) Asia Limited (“Tru Taj”) common stock and California Pizza Kitchen, Inc. (“CPK”) common stock, respectively.

These weighted average share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net unrealized appreciation was primarily driven by increases in the fair value of our investment in United Insurance Holding Corp. (“UIHC”) unsecured bonds, Maverick Gaming, LLC term loan, and Nice-Pak Products, Inc. promissory notes on which recognized appreciation of $1.3 million, $0.7 million, and $0.5 million, respectively. These gains were partially offset by unrealized depreciation of $1.7 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million due to decreases in the fair value of our investments in Lenders Funding, LLC (“Lenders Funding”) common equity, Research Now Group, Inc. (“Research Now”) second lien secured loan and Research Now revolver, respectively.

Net unrealized appreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily driven by increases in the fair value of our investment in UIHC unsecured bonds, Prestige Capital Finance, LLC common equity, and Blackstone Secured Lending common equity on which recognized appreciation of $4.4 million, $1.2 million, and $1.0 million, respectively. These gains were partially offset by unrealized depreciation of $2.0 million, $0.7 million and $0.7 million due to decreases in fair value of our investment in Lenders Funding common equity, Research Now second lien secured loan and First Brands, Inc. second lien secured loan, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, gross unrealized appreciation primarily due to the realization of previously recognized unrealized losses on our investments in the Avanti 2nd lien bonds, 1.5 lien notes and common equity as discussed under Realized Gains (Losses) above, resulting in the reversal of approximately $110 million in previously recognized unrealized depreciation. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, unrealized appreciation also includes approximately $15.3 million and $4.2 million in reversals of previously recognized unrealized depreciation as a result of the sales of our investments in Tru Taj common equity and CPK common equity. Unrealized depreciation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 also includes approximately $6.8 million of loss on our investments in Avanti Space Limited E2, F and G junior priority notes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate liquidity through our operations with cash received from investment income and sales and paydowns on investments. Such proceeds are generally reinvested in new investment opportunities, distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends, or used to pay operating expenses. We also receive proceeds from our issuances of notes payable and our revolving credit facility and from time to time may raise additional equity capital. See “—Revolver” and “—Notes Payable” below for more information regarding our outstanding credit facility and notes.

At June 30, 2023, we had approximately $3.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $8.4 million of money market fund investments at fair value. At June 30, 2023, we had investments in 50 debt instruments across 41 companies, totaling approximately $198.8 million at fair value and 60 equity investments in 60 companies, totaling approximately $37.6 million at fair value.

In the normal course of business, we may enter into investment agreements under which we commit to make an investment in a portfolio company at some future date or over a specified period of time. As of June 30, 2023, we had approximately $11.9 million in unfunded loan commitments, subject to our approval in certain instances, to provide debt financing to certain of our portfolio companies. We had sufficient cash and other liquid assets on our June 30, 2023 balance sheet to satisfy the unfunded commitments.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $13.1 million, reflecting the purchases and repayments of investments offset by net investment income, including non-cash income related to accretion of discount and PIK income and proceeds from sales of investments and principal payments received. Net cash provided by purchases and proceeds from sales of investments was approximately $5.4 million, reflecting payments for additional investments of $68.1 million, offset by proceeds from principal repayments and sales of $73.5 million. Such amounts include draws and repayments on investments in revolving credit facilities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was $10.3 million, consisting of $5.0 million in net repayments on the revolving credit facility and $5.3 million in distributions to stockholders.

We believe we have sufficient liquidity available to meet our short-term and long-term obligations for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

Contractual Obligations and Cash Requirements

We have certain contracts under which we have material future commitments. Under the Investment Management Agreement, GECM provides investment advisory services to us. For providing these services, we pay GECM a fee, consisting of two components: (1) a base management fee based on the average value of our total assets and (2) an incentive fee based on our performance. On August 1, 2022, our stockholders approved an amendment to the Investment Management Agreement to eliminate $163.2 million of realized and unrealized losses incurred prior to April 1, 2022 from the calculation of future capital gains incentive fees and reset the capital gain incentive fee and mandatory deferral periods in Sections 4.4 and 4.5, respectively, of the Investment Management Agreement to begin on April 1, 2022.

We are also party to the Administration Agreement with GECM. Under the Administration Agreement, GECM furnishes us with, or otherwise arranges for the provision of, office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping, finance, accounting, compliance and record keeping services at such office facilities and other such services as our administrator.

If any of the contractual obligations discussed above are terminated, our costs under any new agreements that we enter into may increase. In addition, we would likely incur significant time and expense in locating alternative parties to provide the services we expect to receive under our Investment Management Agreement and our Administration Agreement. Any new investment management agreement would also be subject to approval by our stockholders.

Both the Investment Management Agreement and the Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon no fewer than 60 days’ written notice to the other.

Revolver

On May 5, 2021, we entered into a Loan, Guarantee and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with City National Bank (“CNB”). The Loan Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving line of credit of up to $25 million (subject to a borrowing base as defined in the Loan Agreement). We may request to increase the revolving line in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25 million, which increase is subject to the sole discretion of CNB. The maturity date of the revolving line is May 5, 2024. Borrowings under the revolving line bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.50%, (ii) a base rate plus 2.00% or (iii) a combination thereof, as determined by us. As of June 30, 2023, there were $5.0 million borrowings outstanding under the revolving line.

Borrowings under the revolving line are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of our assets, subject to certain specified exceptions. We have made customary representations and warranties and are required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar loan agreements. In addition, the Loan Agreement contains financial covenants requiring (i) net assets of not less than $65 million, (ii) asset coverage equal to or greater than 150% and (iii) bank asset coverage equal to or greater than 300%, in each case tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company. Borrowings are also subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). In May 2022, the Loan Agreement was amended to require an asset coverage equal to or greater than 150% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter except for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. In addition, the interest rate was amended to replace London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with SOFR.

Notes Payable

On January 11, 2018, we issued $43.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.75% notes due 2025 (the “GECCM Notes”). On January 19, 2018 and February 9, 2018, we issued an additional $1.9 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of the GECCM Notes upon partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The aggregate principal balance of the GECCM Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2023 is $45.6 million.

On June 18, 2019, we issued $42.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.50% Notes due 2024 (the “GECCN Notes”), which included $2.5 million of GECCN Notes issued in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. On July 5, 2019, we issued an additional $2.5 million of the GECCN Notes upon another partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The aggregate principal balance of the GECCN Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2023 is $42.8 million.

On June 23, 2021, we issued $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% notes due 2026 (the “GECCO Notes” and, together with the GECCM Notes and GECCN Notes, the “Notes”). On July 9, 2021, we issued an additional $7.5 million of the GECCO Notes upon full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. The aggregate principal balance of the GECCO Notes outstanding as of June 30, 2023 is $57.5 million.

11

The Notes are our unsecured obligations and rank equal with all of our outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness. The unsecured notes are effectively subordinated, or junior in right of payment, to indebtedness under our Loan Agreement and any other future secured indebtedness that we may incur and structurally subordinated to all future indebtedness and other obligations of our subsidiaries. We pay interest on the Notes on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The GECCM Notes, GECCN Notes and GECCO Notes will mature on January 31, 2025, June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2026, respectively. The GECCM Notes and GECCN Notes are currently callable at the Company’s option and the GECCO Notes can be called on, or after, June 30, 2023. Holders of the Notes do not have the option to have the Notes repaid prior to the stated maturity date. The Notes were issued in minimum denominations of $25 and integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof.

We may repurchase the Notes in accordance with the Investment Company Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

As of June 30, 2023, our asset coverage ratio was approximately 161.5%. Under the Investment Company Act, we are subject to a minimum asset coverage ratio of 150%.

Share Price Data

The following table sets forth: (i) NAV per share of our common stock as of the applicable period end, (ii) the range of high and low closing sales prices of our common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Market during the applicable period, (iii) the closing high and low sales prices as a premium (discount) to NAV during the relevant period, and (iv) the distributions per share of our common stock declared during the applicable period. Shares of business development companies may trade at a market price that is less than the value of the net assets attributable to those shares. The possibility that our shares of common stock will trade at a discount or premium to NAV is separate and distinct from the risk that our NAV will decrease. During the last two fiscal years, our common stock has generally traded below NAV. During the last two fiscal years, using the high and low sales prices within each fiscal quarter compared to the NAV at such quarter end, our common stock has traded as high as a 27.0% premium to NAV and as low as a 37.9% discount to NAV.

			Closing Sales Price				Premium (Discount) of High Sales Price	Premium (Discount) of Low Sales Price	Distributions
	NAV(1)		High		Low		to NAV(2)	to NAV(2)	Declared(3)

(1)NAV per share is determined as of the last day in the relevant quarter and therefore does not necessarily reflect the NAV per share on the date of the high and low closing sales prices. The NAVs shown are based on outstanding shares at the end of each period as adjusted retroactively for the reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022.

(2)Calculated as of the respective high or low closing sales price divided by the quarter-end NAV.

(3)We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of our dividends and other distributions on behalf of our stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if our Board authorizes, and we declare, a cash distribution, our stockholders who have not opted out of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions (net of any applicable withholding tax) automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving the cash distributions.

For all periods presented in the table above, there was no return of capital included in any distribution.

The last reported closing price for our common stock on July 27, 2023 was $8.28 per share. As of July 27, 2023, we had 9 record holders of our common stock.

Distributions

The following table summarizes our distributions declared for record dates since January 1, 2021:

Record Date	Payment Date	Distribution Per Share Declared(1)
March 15, 2021	March 31, 2021	$	0.60
June 15, 2021	June 30, 2021	$	0.60

March 15, 2023	March 31, 2023	$	0.35
June 15, 2023	June 30, 2023	$	0.35

(1)Per share amounts have been adjusted for the periods shown to reflect the six-for-one reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022 on a retroactive basis.

Recent Developments

Our board set distributions for the quarter ending September 30, 2023 at a rate of $0.35 per share. The full amount of each distribution will be from distributable earnings. The schedule of distribution payments will be established by GECC pursuant to authority granted by our Board. The distribution will be paid in cash.

Interest Rate Risk

We are also subject to financial risks, including changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $136.8 million in principal amount of our debt investments bore interest at variable rates, which are generally based on LIBOR, SOFR or US prime rate, and many of which are subject to certain floors. Recently, interest rates have risen and a prolonged increase in interest rates will increase our gross investment income and could result in an increase in our net investment income if such increases in interest rates are not offset by a corresponding decrease in the spread over variable rates that we earn on any portfolio investments or an increase in our operating expenses. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for an analysis of the impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates.

14

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2023, 19 debt investments in our portfolio bore interest at a fixed rate, and the remaining 30 debt investments were at variable rates, representing approximately $97.6 million and $136.8 million in principal debt, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, 31 debt investments in our portfolio bore interest at a fixed rate, and the remaining 23 debt investments were at variable rates, representing approximately $129.3 million and $100.8 million in principal debt, respectively. The variable rates are generally based upon the LIBOR, SOFR or US prime rate.

To illustrate the potential impact of a change in the underlying interest rate on our net investment income, we have assumed a 1%, 2%, and 3% increase and 1%, 2%, and 3% decrease in the underlying reference rate, and no other change in our portfolio as of June 30, 2023. We have also assumed there are no outstanding floating rate borrowings by the Company. See the following table for the effect the rate changes would have on net investment income.

Reference Rate Increase (Decrease)	Increase (decrease) of Net Investment Income (in thousands)(1)
3.00%	$	4,262
2.00%		2,841
1.00%		1,409
-1.00%		(1,421	)
-2.00%		(2,841	)
-3.00%		(4,259	)

(1)Several of our debt investments with variable rates contain a reference rate floor. The actual increase (decrease) of net investment income reflected in the table above takes into account such floors to the extent applicable.

Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of our existing interest rate sensitivity at June 30, 2023, it does not adjust for changes in the credit quality, size and composition of our portfolio, and other business developments, including borrowing under a credit facility, that could affect the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from the results under this hypothetical analysis.

We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2023, we, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic filings with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(1)Great Elm Capital Corp.’s (the “Company”) investments are generally acquired in private transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and, therefore, are generally subject to limitations on resale, and may be deemed to be “restricted securities” under the Securities Act.

(2)Certain of the Company’s variable rate debt investments bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR” or “L”), prime rate (“Prime”), or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) which are reset periodically.

(1)The Company’s investments are generally acquired in private transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 and, therefore, are generally subject to limitations on resale, and may be deemed to be “restricted securities” under the Securities Act of 1933.

(2)Certain of the Company’s variable rate debt investments bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR” or “L”), prime rate (“Prime”), or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) which are reset periodically. For each debt investment, the Company has provided the interest rate in effect as of period end. A floor is the minimum rate that will be applied in calculating an interest rate. A cap is the maximum rate that will be applied in calculating an interest rate. The one-month (“1M”) LIBOR as of period end was 4.39%. The three-month (“3M”) LIBOR as of period end was 4.77%. The six-month (“6M”) LIBOR as of period end was 5.14%. The prime rate as of period end was 7.50%. The SOFR as of period end was 4.30%.

GREAT ELM CAPITAL CORP.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts

1. ORGANIZATION

Great Elm Capital Corp. (the “Company”) was formed on April 22, 2016 as a Maryland corporation. The Company is structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company. The Company elected to be regulated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The Company is managed by Great Elm Capital Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GECM”), a subsidiary of Great Elm Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“GEG”).

The Company seeks to generate current income and capital appreciation through debt and income generating equity investments, including investments in specialty finance businesses.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation. The Company’s functional currency is U.S. dollars and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to Regulation S-X and Regulation S-K. These financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items or items discussed herein) that management believes are necessary to fairly state results for the interim periods presented. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results of operations. The Company is an investment company following accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies.

Retroactive Adjustments for Reverse Stock Split. The outstanding shares and per share amounts of the Company’s common stock in the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split effected on February 28, 2022 for all activity prior to that date.

Basis of Consolidation. Under the Investment Company Act, Article 6 of Regulation S-X and GAAP, the Company is generally precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services and benefits to the Company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Great Elm Specialty Finance, LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.

Revenue Recognition. Interest and dividend income, including income paid in kind, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees, including original issue discounts, earned with respect to capital commitments, are generally amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment, as are end-of-term or exit fees receivable upon repayment of a debt investment if such fees are fixed in nature. Other fees, including certain amendment fees, prepayment fees and commitment fees on broken deals, and end-of-term or exit fees that have a contingency feature or are variable in nature are recognized as earned. Prepayment fees and similar income due upon the early repayment of a loan or debt security are generally included in interest income.

Interest income received as paid-in-kind (“PIK”) is reported separately in the Statements of Operations. Income is included as PIK if the instrument solely provides for settlement in kind. In the event that the borrower can settle in kind or via cash payment, the income is not included as PIK until the borrower elects to pay in kind and the payment is received by the Company. In the event there is a lesser cash rate in a PIK toggle instrument, income is accrued at the lesser cash rate until the coupon is paid in kind and such larger payment is received by the Company.

Certain of the Company’s debt investments were purchased at a discount to par as a result of the underlying credit risks and financial results of the issuer, as well as general market factors that influence the financial markets as a whole. Discounts on the acquisition of corporate debt instruments are generally amortized using the effective-interest or constant-yield method assuming there are no material questions as to collectability.

F-47

Net Realized Gains (Losses) and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation). The Company measures realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale of an investment and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized. Realized gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the net change in portfolio investment values and portfolio investment cost bases during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents typically consist of bank demand deposits. Restricted cash generally consists of collateral for unfunded positions held by counterparties.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments. The Company carries its investments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is generally based on quoted market prices provided by independent pricing services, broker or dealer quotations or alternative price sources. In the absence of quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative price sources, investments are measured at fair value as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”).

Due to the inherent uncertainties of valuation, certain estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been realized had a ready market for these investments existed, and these differences could be material. See Note 4.

The Company values its portfolio investments at fair value based upon the principles and methods of valuation set forth in policies adopted by the Board. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset that (1) are independent of the Company, (2) are knowledgeable, having a reasonable understanding about the asset based on all available information (including information that might be obtained through due diligence efforts that are usual and customary), (3) are able to transact for the asset, and (4) are willing to transact for the asset (that is, they are motivated but not forced or otherwise compelled to do so).

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations unless the quotations are deemed not to represent fair value. The Company generally obtains market quotations from recognized exchanges, market quotation systems, independent pricing services or one or more broker-dealers or market makers. Short term debt investments with remaining maturities within ninety days are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available, which is the case for many of the Company’s investments, or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, are valued at fair value using a consistently applied valuation process in accordance with the Company’s documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by the Board, who also approve in good faith the valuation of such securities as of the end of each quarter. Due to the inherent uncertainty and subjectivity of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that the Company may ultimately realize. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events may have differing impacts on the market quotations used to value some of the Company’s investments than on the fair values of the Company’s investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Market quotations may be deemed not to represent fair value in certain circumstances where the Company believes that facts and circumstances applicable to an issuer, a seller or purchaser, or the market for a particular security cause current market quotations to not reflect the fair value of the security.

The valuation process approved by the Board with respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value is as follows:

▪The investment professionals of GECM provide recent portfolio company financial statements and other reporting materials to an independent valuation firm (or firms) approved by the Board;

▪Such firms evaluate this information along with relevant observable market data to conduct independent appraisals each quarter, and their preliminary valuation conclusions are documented, discussed, and iterated with senior management of GECM;

▪The fair value of investments comprising in the aggregate less than 5% of the Company’s total capitalization and individually less than 1% of the Company’s total capitalization may be determined by GECM in good faith in accordance with the Company’s valuation policy without the employment of an independent valuation firm; and

▪The Company’s audit committee recommends, and the Board approves, the fair value of the investments in the Company’s portfolio in good faith based on the input of GECM, the independent valuation firms (to the extent applicable) and the business judgment of the audit committee and the Board, respectively.

F-48

Those investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that the Company may take into account in determining the fair value of its investments include, as relevant and among other factors: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, merger and acquisition comparables, and enterprise values.

Investments in revolvers or delayed draw loans may include unfunded commitments for which the Company’s acquisition cost will be offset by compensation received on the portion of the commitment that is unfunded. As a result, the purchases of a commitment that is not fully funded may result in a negative cost basis for the funded commitment. The fair value of the unfunded commitment is adjusted for price appreciation or depreciation and may result in a negative fair value for the unfunded commitment.

Deferred Financing Costs and Deferred Offering Costs. Deferred financing costs and deferred offering costs consist of fees and expenses incurred in connection with financing or capital raising activities and include professional fees, printing fees, filing fees and other related expenses.

Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with the revolving credit facility are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the revolving credit facility. Unamortized costs are included in deferred financing costs on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities and amortization of those costs is included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred offering costs incurred in connection with the unsecured notes are amortized over the term of the respective unsecured note using the effective interest method. Unamortized costs are treated as a reduction to the carrying amount of the debt on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities and amortization of those costs is included in interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

Deferred offering costs incurred in connection with the shelf registration on form N-2 are capitalized when incurred and recognized as a reduction to offering proceeds when the offering becomes effective or expensed upon expiration of the registration statement, if applicable. Deferred offering costs are included with prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets. Prepaid expenses include expenses paid in advance such as annual insurance premiums and deferred offering costs, as described above. Other assets may include contributions to investments paid in advance of trade date. As of December 31, 2022, contributions to investments paid in advance of trade date were $3,000. There were no such contributions to investments paid in advance of trade date as of June 30, 2023.

Foreign Currency Translation. Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (1) investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates effective on the date of valuation; and (2) purchases and sales of investments and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. The portion of gains and losses on foreign investments resulting from fluctuations in foreign currencies is included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

U.S. Federal Income Taxes. From inception to September 30, 2016, the Company was a taxable association under Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company has elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under subchapter M of the Code. The Company intends to operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs in that taxable year and all future taxable years. In order to qualify as a RIC, among other things, the Company will be required to timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of investment company taxable income (“ICTI”) including PIK interest, as defined by the Code, for each taxable year in order to be eligible for tax treatment under subchapter M of the Code. Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year dividend distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed prior to the 15th day of the ninth month after the tax year-end. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as distributions. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned by the Company represents obligations of the Company’s stockholders and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

F-49

If the Company does not distribute (or is not deemed to have distributed) each calendar year the sum of (1) 98% of its net ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years (the “Minimum Distribution Amount”), the Company will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by the which Minimum Distribution Amount exceeds the distributions for the year. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, the Company accrues excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income.

The Company has accrued $28 of excise tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company accrued $252 of excise tax expense during the year ended December 31, 2022.

At December 31, 2022, the Company, for federal income tax purposes, had capital loss carryforwards of $185,737 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to stockholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Company of any liability for federal income tax. On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Modernization Act”) was signed into law. The Modernization Act changed the capital loss carryforward rules as they relate to regulated investment companies. Capital losses generated in tax years beginning after the date of enactment may now be carried forward indefinitely, and retain the character of the original loss. Of the capital loss carryforwards at December 31, 2022, $41,899 are limited losses and available for use subject to annual limitation under Section 382. Of the capital losses at December 31, 2022, $16,815 are short-term and $168,922 are long term.

ASC 740 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“ASC 740”) provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax position. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Based on its analysis of its tax position for all open tax years (the current and prior years, as applicable), the Company has concluded that it does not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria of ASC 740. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

3. SIGNIFICANT AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTIES

Investment Management Agreement. The Company has an investment management agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with GECM. Beginning on November 4, 2016, the Company began accruing for GECM’s fees for its services under the Investment Management Agreement. This fee consists of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee.

The Company’s Chief Compliance Officer is also the president, general counsel and chief compliance officer of GECM, and the president of GEG. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer is also the chief financial officer of GECM.

Management Fee The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the Company’s average adjusted gross assets, including assets purchased with borrowed funds. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of the Company’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the then current calendar quarter. Base management fees for any partial quarter are prorated.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 management fees amounted to $884 and $1,753, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 management fees amounted to $771 and $1,551, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $884 and $850, respectively, remained payable.

Incentive Fee The incentive fee consists of two components that are independent of each other with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. One component of the incentive fee is based on income (the “Income Incentive Fee”) and the other component is based on capital gains (the “Capital Gains Incentive Fee”).

F-50

The Income Incentive Fee is calculated on a quarterly basis as 20% of the amount by which the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income (the “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income”) for the quarter exceeds a hurdle rate of 1.75% (7.0% annualized) of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to a “catch-up” provision pursuant to which GECM receives all of such income in excess of the 1.75% level but less than 2.1875% (8.75% annualized) and subject to a total return requirement (described below). The effect of the “catch-up” provision is that, subject to the total return provision, if pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds 2.1875% of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, in any calendar quarter, GECM will receive 20.0% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as if the 1.75% hurdle rate did not apply. These calculations will be appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the then current quarter.

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income includes any accretion of original issue discount, market discount, PIK interest, PIK dividends or other types of deferred or accrued income, including in connection with zero coupon securities, that the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries have recognized in accordance with GAAP, but have not yet received in cash (collectively, “Accrued Unpaid Income”). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not include any realized capital gains or losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

Any Income Incentive Fee otherwise payable with respect to Accrued Unpaid Income (collectively, the “Accrued Unpaid Income Incentive Fees”) is deferred, on a security by security basis, and becomes payable only if, as, when and to the extent cash is received by the Company or its consolidated subsidiaries in respect thereof. Any Accrued Unpaid Income that is subsequently reversed in connection with a write-down, write-off, impairment or similar treatment of the investment giving rise to such Accrued Unpaid Income will, in the applicable period of reversal, (1) reduce Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income and (2) reduce the amount of Accrued Unpaid Income Incentive Fees previously deferred.

The Company will defer cash payment of any Income Incentive Fee otherwise payable to the investment adviser in any quarter (excluding Accrued Unpaid Income Incentive Fees with respect to such quarter) that exceeds (1) 20% of the Cumulative Pre‑Incentive Fee Net Return (as defined below) during the most recent twelve full calendar quarter period ending on or prior to the date such payment is to be made (the “Trailing Twelve Quarters”) less (2) the aggregate incentive fees that were previously paid to the investment adviser during such Trailing Twelve Quarters (excluding Accrued Unpaid Income Incentive Fees during such Trailing Twelve Quarters and not subsequently paid). “Cumulative Pre‑Incentive Fee Net Return” during the relevant Trailing Twelve Quarters means the sum of (a) pre‑incentive fee net investment income in respect of such Trailing Twelve Quarters less (b) net realized capital losses and net unrealized capital depreciation, if any, in each case calculated in accordance with GAAP, in respect of such Trailing Twelve Quarters.

Under the Capital Gains Incentive Fee, the Company is obligated to pay GECM at the end of each calendar year 20% of the aggregate cumulative realized capital gains from November 4, 2016 through the end of that year, computed net of aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized depreciation through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees.

In March 2022, GECM waived all accrued and unpaid incentive fees as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, there were approximately $4.9 million of accrued fees. In connection with the waiver, the Company recognized the reversal of these accrued fees during the period ending March 31, 2022, resulting in a corresponding increase in net income in that period. The incentive fee waiver is not subject to recapture.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred Income Incentive Fees of $1,552 and $(4,854), inclusive of the incentive fee waiver as of March 31, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, cumulative accrued incentive fees payable were $2,116, and after calculating the total return requirement, $1,001 was immediately payable. As of December 31, 2022, cumulative accrued incentive fees payable were $565, and after calculating the total return requirement, none was immediately payable. These payable amounts included both Accrued Unpaid Income Incentive Fees and amounts deferred under the total return requirement and would have become due upon meeting the criteria described above had they not been waived by GECM as of March 31, 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any Capital Gains Incentive Fees accrual.

F-51

On August 1, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved a proposal to amend the Capital Gains Incentive Fee and mandatory deferral provisions in sections 4.4 and 4.5, respectively, of the Investment Management Agreement. The amendment amended (i) section 4.4 of the Investment Management Agreement to provide that (x) the capital gains commencement date shall be April 1, 2022 and (y) for the year ending December 31, 2022, the Capital Gains Incentive Fee shall be calculated for the period beginning on the Capital Gains Commencement Date and ending on December 31, 2022 and (ii) section 4.5 of the Investment Management Agreement to provide that (x) the Trailing Twelve Quarters shall commence April 1, 2022 (the “Mandatory Deferral Commencement Date”) and (y) in the event the Trailing Twelve Quarters is less than twelve full calendar quarters, Trailing Twelve Quarters shall mean the period from the Mandatory Deferral Commencement Date through the quarter ending on or prior to the date such Income Incentive Fee payment is to be made.

The Investment Management Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, GECM and its officers, managers, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from the Company for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of GECM’s services under the Investment Management Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Company.

Administration Fees. The Company has an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with GECM to provide administrative services, including, among other things, furnishing the Company with office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services. The Company will reimburse GECM for its allocable portion of overhead and other expenses of GECM in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement. Compensation of administrator personnel is allocated based on time allocation for the period. Other overhead expenses are based on a combination of time allocation and total headcount.

The Administration Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, GECM and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from the Company for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of GECM’s services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for the Company.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred expenses under the Administration Agreement of $341 and $636, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred expenses under the Administration Agreement of $262 and $483, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $290 and $188 remained payable, respectively.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price).

The fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Basis of Fair Value Measurement

Level 1 Investments valued using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Level 2 Investments valued using other unadjusted observable market inputs, e.g. quoted prices in markets that are not active or quotes for comparable instruments.

Level 3 Investments that are valued using quotes and other observable market data to the extent available, but which also take into consideration one or more unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation taken as a whole.

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Note 2 should be read in conjunction with the information outlined below.

F-52

The table below presents the valuation techniques and the nature of significant inputs generally used in determining the fair value of Level 2 and Level 3 Instruments.

Level 2 Instruments Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs

Equity, Bank Loans, Corporate Debt, and Other Debt Obligations The types of instruments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active but are valued based on quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency may include commercial paper, most government agency obligations, certain corporate debt securities, certain mortgage-backed securities, certain bank loans, less liquid publicly-listed equities, certain state and municipal obligations, certain money market instruments and certain loan commitments. Valuations of Level 2 debt and equity instruments can be verified to quoted prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Consideration is given to the nature of the quotations (e.g. indicative or firm) and the relationship of recent market activity to the prices provided from alternative pricing sources.

Level 3 Instruments Valuation Techniques and Significant Inputs

Bank Loans, Corporate Debt, and Other Debt Obligations

Valuations are generally based on discounted cash flow techniques, for which the significant inputs are the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, market yields and recovery assumptions. The significant inputs are generally determined based on an analysis of market comparables, transactions in similar instruments and/or recovery and liquidation analyses.

Equity

Recent third-party investments or pending transactions are considered to be the best evidence for any change in fair value. When these are not available, the following valuation methodologies are used, as appropriate and available: ▪Transactions in similar instruments; ▪Discounted cash flow techniques; ▪Third party appraisals; and ▪Industry multiples and public comparables. ▪Current financial performance as compared to projected performance; ▪Capitalization rates and multiples; and ▪Market yields implied by transactions of similar or related assets. Evidence includes recent or pending reorganizations (for example, merger proposals, tender offers and debt restructurings) and significant changes in financial metrics, including:

As noted above, the income and market approaches were used in the determination of fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach are the discount rate or market yield used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which include both future principal and interest payments. An increase in the discount rate or market yield would result in a decrease in the fair value. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates is risk of default, rating of the investment (if any), call provisions and comparable company valuations. The significant unobservable inputs used in the market approach are based on market comparable transactions and market multiples of publicly traded comparable companies. Increases or decreases in market multiples would result in an increase or decrease, respectively, in the fair value.

The following tables below present the ranges of significant unobservable inputs used to value the Company’s Level 3 assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These ranges represent the significant unobservable inputs that were used in the valuation of each type of instrument, but they do not represent a range of values for any one instrument. For example, the lowest yield in 1st Lien Debt is appropriate for valuing that specific debt investment, but may not be appropriate for valuing any other debt investments in this asset class. Accordingly, the ranges of inputs presented below do not represent uncertainty in, or possible ranges of, fair value measurements of the Company’s Level 3 assets.

(1)The fair value of any one instrument may be determined using multiple valuation techniques or unobservable inputs.

(2)Weighted average for an asset category consisting of multiple investments is calculated by weighting the significant unobservable input by the relative fair value of the investment. The range and weighted average for an asset category consisting of a single investment represents the significant unobservable input used in the fair value of the investment.

(3)Investments valued using the asset recovery or liquidation technique include investments for which valuation is based on current financial data without a discount rate applied.

The Company values investments in private funds using NAV as reported by each fund’s investment manager. The private funds calculate NAV in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, as of the valuation date. Investments valued using NAV as a practical expedient are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy.

As of June 30, 2023 the Company held an investment in one private fund valued using NAV as a practical expedient. The Company has no unfunded commitments with respect to this investment. Withdrawals from the investment are permitted annually and there is no set duration for the private fund.

5. DEBT

Revolver

On May 5, 2021, the Company entered into a Loan, Guarantee and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with City National Bank (“CNB”). The Loan Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving line of credit of up to $25 million (subject to a borrowing base as defined in the Loan Agreement). The Company may request to increase the revolving line in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25 million, which increase is subject to the sole discretion of CNB. The maturity date of the revolving line is May 5, 2024. Borrowings under the revolving line bear interest at a rate equal to (i) the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.50%, (ii) a base rate plus 2.00% or (iii) a combination thereof, as determined by the Company. As of June 30, 2023, there were $5.0 million borrowings outstanding under the revolving line of credit.

Borrowings under the revolving line are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, subject to certain specified exceptions. The Company has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar loan agreements. In addition, the Loan Agreement contains financial covenants requiring (i) net assets of not less than $65 million, (ii) asset coverage equal to or greater than 150% and (iii) bank asset coverage equal to or greater than 300%, in each case tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company. Borrowings are also subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the Investment Company Act. In May 2022, the Loan Agreement was amended to require an asset coverage equal to or greater than 150% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter except for the fiscal quarters ending March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. In addition, the interest rate was amended to replace the LIBOR with SOFR.

Unsecured Notes

On January 11, 2018, the Company issued $43,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.75% notes due 2025 (the “GECCM Notes”). On January 19, 2018 and February 9, 2018, the Company issued an additional $1,898 and $1,500 of the GECCM Notes upon partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option.

On June 18, 2019, the Company issued $42,500 in aggregate principal amount of 6.50% notes due 2024 (the “GECCN Notes”), which included $2,500 of the GECCN Notes issued in connection with the partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option. On July 5, 2019, the Company issued an additional $2,500 of the GECCN Notes upon another partial exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option.

On June 23, 2021, the Company issued $50,000 in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% notes due 2026 (the “GECCO Notes”). On July 9, 2021, the Company issued an additional $7,500 of the GECCO Notes upon full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option.

F-56

The Notes are our unsecured obligations and rank equal with all of our outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness. The unsecured notes are effectively subordinated, or junior in right of payment, to indebtedness under our Loan Agreement and any other future secured indebtedness that the Company may incur and structurally subordinated to all future indebtedness and other obligations of our subsidiaries. The Company pays interest on the unsecured notes on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The GECCM Notes, GECCN Notes and GECCO Notes will mature on January 31, 2025, June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2026, respectively. The GECCM Notes and GECCN Notes are currently callable at the Company’s option and the GECCO Notes can be called on or after June 30, 2023. Holders of the unsecured notes do not have the option to have the unsecured notes repaid prior to the stated maturity date. The unsecured notes were issued in minimum denominations of $25 and integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof.

As part of the offerings, the Company incurred fees and costs, which are treated as a reduction of the carrying amount of the debt on the Company’s consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. These deferred financing costs presented as a reduction to the Notes payable balance are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Notes.

The Company may repurchase the Notes in accordance with the Investment Company Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

(1)Total amount of each class of senior securities outstanding at the end of the period presented.

(2)Asset coverage per unit is the ratio of the carrying value of the Company’s total consolidated assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness. Asset coverage per unit is expressed in terms of dollar amounts per $1,000 of indebtedness.

(3)The amount to which such class of senior security would be entitled upon the voluntary liquidation of the issuer in preference to any security junior to it.

(4)The average market value per unit for the Notes, as applicable, is based on the average daily prices of such Notes and is expressed per $1 of indebtedness.

The terms of the unsecured notes are governed by a base indenture, dated as of September 18, 2017, by and between the Company and Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (formerly known as American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC), as trustee (as supplemented with respect to each series of notes, the “Indenture”). The Indenture’s covenants, include restrictions on certain activities in the event the Company falls below the minimum asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act, as well as covenants requiring the Company to provide financial information to the holders of the Notes and the trustee if the Company ceases to be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These covenants are subject to limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture. The Investment Company Act limits, with certain exceptions, the Company’s borrowing such that its asset coverage ratio, as defined in the Investment Company Act, is at least 1.5 to 1 after such borrowing.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s asset coverage ratio was approximately 161.5%.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Indenture.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the components of interest expense were as follows:

6. CAPITAL ACTIVITY

On June 13, 2022, the Company completed a non-transferable rights offering, which entitled holders of rights to purchase one new share of common stock for each right held at a subscription price of $12.50 per share. In total, the Company sold 3,000,567 shares of the Company’s common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $37,507.

On February 28, 2022, the Company effected a 6-for-1 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding common stock. As a result of the reverse stock split, every six shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were converted into one share of issued and outstanding common stock. Any fractional shares as a result of the reverse stock split were redeemed for cash at the closing market price on the business day immediately prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split. Such fractional shares aggregated to the equivalent of four shares and were redeemed for $0.1 in aggregate.

On February 3, 2022, the Company issued 117,117 shares of common stock (as adjusted for the reverse stock split described above) for $2,600 based on the most recently published net asset value. This common stock was issued in a private placement exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Company may enter into investment agreements under which it commits to make an investment in a portfolio company at some future date or over a specified period of time. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $11,932 in unfunded loan commitments, subject to the Company’s approval in certain instances, to provide debt financing to certain of its portfolio companies. To the degree applicable, unrealized gains or losses on these commitments as of June 30, 2023 are included in the Company’s Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the corresponding Schedule of Investments. The Company believes that it had sufficient cash and other liquid assets on its balance sheet to satisfy the unfunded commitments. In addition, the Company has the ability to draw on its revolving line of credit to manage cash flows. The Company has considered the net increases in net assets and positive cash flows from operations and has concluded that it has the ability to meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business based upon an evaluation of its cash position and sources of liquidity.

From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of the Company rights under contracts with the Company portfolio companies.

The Company is named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed on March 5, 2016, and captioned Intrepid Investments, LLC v. London Bay Capital, which is pending in the Delaware Court of Chancery. The plaintiff immediately agreed to stay the action in light of an ongoing mediation among parties other than the Company. This lawsuit was brought by a member of Speedwell Holdings (formerly known as The Selling Source, LLC), one of the Company’s portfolio investments, against various members of and lenders to Speedwell Holdings. The plaintiff asserts claims of aiding and abetting, breaches of fiduciary duty, and tortious interference against the Company. In June 2018, Intrepid Investments, LLC (“Intrepid”) sent notice to the court and defendants effectively lifting the stay and triggering defendants’ obligation to respond to the Intrepid complaint. In September 2018, the Company joined the other defendants in a motion to dismiss on various grounds. In February 2019, Intrepid filed a second amended complaint to which defendants filed a renewed motion to dismiss in March 2019. In June 2023, the Court granted in part and denied in part defendants' motion to dismiss and directed the parties to confer on a schedule to respond to the surviving complaints. The Company intends to defend the matter as necessary.

In July 2016, Full Circle Capital Corporation (“Full Circle”) filed suit in the District Court of Caldwell County, Texas against, among others, Willis Pumphrey for breach of a guaranty agreement arising from a loan transaction with Full Circle. Dr. Pumphrey, a personal guarantor of the loan made by Full Circle, the Company’s predecessor in interest, brought counterclaims alleging breach of a confidentiality agreement and tortious interference with Dr. Pumphrey’s attempted sale of a business in which he owned an interest. Dr. Pumphrey is seeking between $2 million and $6 million in damages. GECC believes Dr. Pumphrey’s claims to be frivolous and intends to vigorously defend them. In September 2019, the Company received a judgment against Dr. Pumphrey from the District Court of Caldwell County, Texas. On June 4, 2020, Dr. Pumphrey filed a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. As of June 2023, the Company’s attempts to reach a consensual restructuring plan with Dr. Pumphrey and his other creditors have been unsuccessful, and it is likely Dr. Pumphrey’s estate will liquidate.

8. INDEMNIFICATION

Under the Company’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, in the normal course of business the Company expects to enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations which provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these agreements cannot be known; however, the Company expects any risk of loss to be remote.
