The material weaknesses are not expected to impact the accuracy of the Company's financial statements to be reported in the 2023 Annual Report. Because the Company has not completed the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023, the preliminary unaudited results presented in the press release as of and for the fourth quarter and year ended September 30, 2023 are based on current expectations and are subject to adjustment.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Set forth below are the results of operations during the three months and year ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Investment Income

For the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, investment income was $34.0 million and $145.4 million, respectively, which was attributable to $24.5 million and $97.2 million from first lien secured debt, $2.9 million and $13.8 million from second lien secured debt, $1.3 million and $4.7 million from subordinated debt and $5.4 million and $29.7 million from preferred and common equity, respectively.

The increase in investment income compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to an increase in SOFR base rates.

Expenses

For the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, expenses totaled $18.4 million and $79.8 million, respectively, and were comprised of $9.0 million and $39.4 million of debt related interest and expenses, $3.9 million and $16.5 million of base management fees, $3.3 million and $13.9 million of incentive fees, $1.6 million and $5.7 million of general and administrative expenses and $0.7 million and $4.3 million of provision for excise taxes.

The increase in expenses over the prior year was primarily due to an increase in debt related interest and other financing expenses and an increase in incentive fees.

Net Investment Income

For the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, net investment income totaled $15.6 million and $65.5 million, or $0.24 per share and $1.00 per share, respectively. For the three months and year ended September 30, 2022, net investment income totaled $9.2 million and $43.9 million, or $0.14 per share and $0.66 per share, respectively. The increase in net investment income per share compared to the prior year was primarily due to an increase in investment income.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

For the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, net realized gains (losses) totaled $(5.2) million and $(156.8) million, respectively. For the three months and year ended September 30, 2022 net realized gains (losses) totaled $(38.7) million and $34.8 million, respectively. The change in realized gains or losses was primarily due to changes in the market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized, primarily due to realization of RAM Energy Holdings LLC, and the fluctuations in the market and in economy.

Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments and Debt

For the three months ended and year ended September 30, 2023, net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments was $2.5 million and $59.6 million, respectively. For the three months and year ended September 30, 2022, net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments was $(11.0) million and $(110.0) million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, our net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $(16.3) million and $(75.7) million, respectively. The net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on our investments for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital market of our investments and the value at which they were realized, as well as due to the realization of RAM Energy Holdings LLC and the fluctuation in the market and in the economy.

For the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, our Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized (appreciation) depreciation of $(1.3) million and $(3.8) million, respectively. For the three months and year ended September 30, 2022, the Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized (appreciation) depreciation of $(1.7) million and $7.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the net unrealized depreciation on the Credit Facility totaled $5.5 million and $9.2 million, respectively. The net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital markets.

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations totaled $12.3 million and $(33.8) million, or $0.19 per share and $(0.52) per share, respectively. For the three months and year ended September 30, 2022, net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations totaled $(34.9) million and $(24.7) million, or $(0.52) and $(0.37) per share, respectively. The increase or decrease for the year ended September 30, 2023 compared to the prior year was primarily due to depreciation of the portfolio primarily driven by changes in market conditions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from cash flows from operations, including income earned, proceeds from investment sales and repayments and proceeds of securities offerings and debt financings. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of interest expense, fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our debt capital, proceeds from of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives and operations.

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, we had $212.4 million and $385.9 million in outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 7.7% and 5.3%, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, we had $262.6 million and $114.1 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, respectively, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions.

As of September 30, 2023 and 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $134.4 million and $52.7 million, respectively, available for investing and general corporate purposes. We believe our liquidity and capital resources are sufficient to allow us to effectively operate our business.

For the year ended September 30, 2023, our operating activities provided cash of $320.7 million and our financing activities used cash of $239.2 million. Our operating activities provided cash primarily due to our investment activities and our financing activities used cash primarily to fund repayments under the Credit Facility.

For the year ended September 30, 2022, our operating activities used cash of $19.4 million, and our financing activities provided cash of $52.0 million. Our operating activities used cash primarily due to our investment activities and our financing activities provided cash primarily due to net repayment under the Credit Facility and SBA debentures and proceeds from our 2026-2 Notes.

DISTRIBUTIONS

During the three months and year ended September 30, 2023, we declared distributions of $0.21 and $0.76 per share, for total distributions of $13.7 million and $49.6 million, respectively.

Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders subject to information reporting on Form 1099-DIV after the end of each calendar year and in our periodic reports filed with the SEC.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND OTHER

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You should understand that under Section 27A(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 do not apply to forward-looking statements made in periodic reports PennantPark Investment Corporation files under the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this press release are forward-looking statements and are not guarantees of future performance or results and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those described from time to time in filings with the SEC. PennantPark Investment Corporation undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statement made herein. You should not place undue influence on such forward-looking statements as such statements speak only as of the date on which they are made.

We may use words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “seeks,” “plans,” “estimates” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on currently available operating, financial and competitive information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations.

The information contained herein is based on current tax laws, which may change in the future. The Company cannot be held responsible for any direct or incidental loss resulting from applying any of the information provided in this publication or from any other source mentioned. The information provided in this material does not constitute any specific legal, tax or accounting advice. Please consult with qualified professionals for this type of advice.

The Company is completing its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023. Based on currently available information, the Company expects to report certain material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting in Item 9A of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2023 (the "2023 Annual Report"). The material weaknesses identified to date relate to the control environment over the Company's review process of its cash and par reconciliations and its interest income analysis. The material weaknesses are not expected to impact the accuracy of the Company's financial statements to be reported in the 2023 Annual Report. Because the Company has not completed the preparation of its consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023, the preliminary unaudited results presented in the press release as of and for the fourth quarter and year ended September 30, 2023 are based on current expectations and are subject to adjustment.

(1) The provisions of the 1940 Act classify investments based on the level of control that we maintain in a particular portfolio company. As defined in the 1940 Act, a company is generally presumed to be “non-controlled” when we own 25% or less of the portfolio company’s voting securities and “controlled” when we own more than 25% of the portfolio company’s voting securities.

(2) The provisions of the 1940 Act classify investments further based on the level of ownership that we maintain in a particular portfolio company. As defined in the 1940 Act, a company is generally deemed as “non-affiliated” when we own less than 5% of a portfolio company’s voting securities and “affiliated” when we own 5% or more of a portfolio company’s voting securities (See Note 6).

(3) Valued based on our accounting policy (See Note 2).

(4) Represents floating rate instruments that accrue interest at a predetermined spread relative to an index, typically the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR or “L,” the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, or EURIBOR or “E,” or Prime rate, or “P.” The spread may change based on the type of rate used. The terms in the Schedule of Investments disclose the actual interest rate in effect as of the reporting period. LIBOR loans are typically indexed to a 30-day, 90-day or 180-day LIBOR rate (1M L, 3M L, or 6M L, respectively), and EURIBOR loans are typically indexed to a 90-day EURIBOR rate (3M E), at the borrower’s option. All securities are subject to a LIBOR or Prime rate floor where a spread is provided, unless noted. The spread provided includes PIK interest and other fee rates, if any.

(5) The security was not valued using significant unobservable inputs. The value of all other securities was determined using significant unobservable inputs (See Note 5).

(6) Non-income producing securities.

(7) Represents the purchase of a security with delayed settlement or a revolving line of credit that is currently an unfunded investment. This security does not earn a basis point spread above an index while it is unfunded.

(8) Non-U.S. company or principal place of business outside the United States.

(9) Investment is held through our Taxable Subsidiary (See Note 1).

(10) Par / Shares amount is denominated in British Pounds (£) as denoted.

(11) The investment is treated as a non-qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, we may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of our total assets. As of September 30, 2022, qualifying assets represent 88% of the Company’s total assets and non-qualifying assets represent 12% of the Company’s total assets.
