Dear Shareholder,

 

Against the backdrop of the coronavirus pandemic, we present our mid-year update for the Vertical Capital Income Fund (the “Fund”). Consistent with the Fund’s investment objective to seek income, the Fund made monthly distributions from operations aggregating approximately $0.18 per share for the six-month period ended March 31, 2020. In addition, a special distribution of approximately $0.19 per share was paid in December 2019 as a result of net capital gains realized on loan sales and loan payoffs during the Fund’s last fiscal year ending September 30, 2019. The Fund has made a special distribution each year since inception.

 

For the six-month period ended March 31, 2020 the Fund produced a total return, based on its traded share price, of -19.19% compared to one of its key benchmarks, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Mortgage Backed Securities Index, which reported a total return of 3.55%. (Please see the definition of the index that accompanies the performance table that immediately follows this letter.) During the same period the S&P 500 Total Return Index was -12.31%. The SEC Yield per share as of March 31, 2020 totaled 2.53%. Obviously, the collapse of equity markets in March had a severe negative impact on the Fund’s share price and performance. The Fund’s traded share price was $10.68 at the beginning of the period. The shares traded down to just under $10.00 for a short period of time in October 2019, and then gained some traction trading up to a high of $11.00 in February 2020. At the bottom in March the share price fell to a low of $7.29 and then rebounded slightly, closing at $8.38 on March 31, 2020. Since then the share price recovered during April and early May, but not fully to pre-virus crisis levels.

 

In comparison the Fund produced a total return based on its net asset value (“NAV”) per share for the same six-month period of -4.39% The Fund’s NAV per share was $12.75 at September 30, 2019, and its NAV per share was $11.80 at March 31, 2020. Since inception, the Fund has produced an annualized total return of 0.94%, based on a hybrid calculation using NAV per share prior to its listing on the NYSE in May 2019 and using its traded share price thereafter. The Fund’s total return since inception, based solely on NAV per share, was 6.88%.

 

Update on Economic Outlook

 

As we reported to you last November, the U.S. economy was expected to grow in the ranges of 1.1% and 1.4% for 2020 and 2021, respectfully; reflecting continued growth, albeit at a slower rate than in immediately prior years. The unemployment rate was generally projected to hover around 4.0% for both 2020 and 2021. In March, as awareness of a virus pandemic became known, economists began adjusting their forecasts to reflect slight downturns in GDP beginning in the third quarter. Within one month, as the full impact of the disease was becoming evident, revised forecasts began assuming a severe decline in economic activity and a substantial increase in unemployment.

 

Many economists believe that we will have a “v-shaped” recovery, one in which the U.S. will experience a sharp drop in GDP beginning in the second quarter of this year followed by a strong rebound recovery late in 2020 and into 2021. However, others see a “u-shaped” recovery where negative conditions will exist much longer. Either way the U.S. will suffer as we witness business closings and job losses.

 

In order to support the economy and provide liquidity to the U.S. banking system, the Federal Reserve has lowered its Fed Fund Rate to near zero with the likelihood that this benchmark rate will remain unchanged through 2021 and likely into 2022. At the same time, investors seeking safety have been reallocating funds from the equity markets to the capital markets, pushing the interest rate on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note to under 1%.

 

Update on the U.S. Mortgage Market

 

The U.S. housing market had been very strong prior to the crisis. Both starts of new construction homes and sales of existing homes were strong. Given the disruption in the economy, home starts in 2020 are expected to slow a bit and then rebound, generally mirroring the timeline and shape of the overall economic recovery. Home sales for 2020 are now expected to be about 2% less than previously projected. In absolute terms, the U.S. should have approximately 700,000 new housing starts and about five million home sales this calendar year – still relatively large numbers.

 

Total residential mortgage originations for 2020 are currently anticipated to be $2.4 trillion, a more than 10% increase over 2019 primarily as a result of a 30% increase in re-financings due to lower mortgage rates. Since the stability of the housing market is so fundamental to the U.S. economy, the Federal Reserve has interjected itself into

 

 

the market, aggressively providing funds to purchase mortgage backed securities issued by the FHA, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae (collectively the “GSEs”).

 

Update on Fund Strategy

 

The Fund meets its investment objective primarily by investing in mortgage notes secured by first liens on residential real estate. These are “whole loans”, not mortgage backed securities, which the Fund does not acquire. We pursue investment opportunities in many types of residential mortgage whole loans, including agency ineligible (“conforming” loans that would have otherwise qualified for funding by one of the GSEs, but were rejected for technical defects in the application or documentation process), non-qualified (loans that do not meet the criteria for purchase or origination by a GSE), performing, re-performing (loans that were non-performing at one point and have now become performing), long-term, short-term, fixed rate and adjustable.

 

The Fund primarily invests through participation in the secondary residential whole loan market and typically purchases loans at a discount to their current unpaid principal balances. The secondary residential whole loan market is part of the larger $11 trillion one- to four- family residential mortgage market and historically boasts a deep roster of institutional participants, along with a diverse universe of sellers and reasons for sale. As such, we are comfortable that we will continue to see an adequate supply of investment opportunities.

 

Update on Operations and Liquidity

 

Total net assets as of March 31, 2020 were approximately $122.5 million, comprised of 790 individual loan investments. Every one of the portfolio’s key metrics, including current weighted average loan-to-value, weighted average effective interest rates, borrower FICO credit scores and percent of performing loans, are generally the same or better as of March 31, 2020 compared to six months ago. Through March, the percentage of non-performing loans (defined as more than 60-days past due, in bankruptcy or foreclosure), was generally consistent with the Fund’s prior history.

 

Given the current struggling economic environment, it is expected that some borrowers whose financial situations are being negatively impacted by income and/or job loss, would begin seeking some form of debt relief. In April we did receive inquiries mostly questioning “what happens if I have a financial problem”. A smaller number of those inquiries progressed to actual requests for assistance. In these situations, and in others that may arise, we intend to implement humanitarian solutions without compromising the financial viability of the Fund for borrowers that have legitimate needs arising out of the COVID-19 crisis.

 

We continue to employ a conservative approach to managing the Fund’s balance sheet. At March 31, 2020 the Fund had approximately $10.5 million drawn on its line of credit, against $35 million of committed availability. This is equivalent to a leverage ratio of approximately 12% of total market capitalization and 8.5% of NAV. The line’s term expires in July and contains a one-year extension option, which we intend to exercise. The line is used to fund short-term working capital needs, bridge transactional activity and increase investment in mortgage loans when such investment is accretive to the Fund’s earnings.

 

The Fund also typically receives cash each month from loan payoffs as a result of borrowers selling their homes or refinancing. A typical 25- to 30- year mortgage loan has historically paid off in six-to-seven years on average, depending on market interest rates. Generally, the volume of re-financings is higher in a low interest rate environment. When received, this capital is typically redeployed into new investments.

 

We appreciate your support and look forward to reporting to you later this year.

 

Regards,

 

Robert J. Chapman

Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Portfolio Manager

Vertical Capital Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
March 31, 2020
 
1.ORGANIZATION

 

Vertical Capital Income Fund (the “Fund”), was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on April 8, 2011 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek income. The Fund currently offers one class of shares which commenced operations on December 30, 2011. Prior to March 29, 2019, the Fund offered shares at net asset value plus a maximum sales charge of 5.75%. Oakline Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), serves as the Fund’s investment adviser.

 

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies” including FASB Accounting Standards Update 2013-08. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund amortizes premiums and discounts using the effective interest rate method. Offering expenses are amortized over 12 months following the time they are incurred.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Investment Security Valuation

 

Mortgage Notes – The Fund uses an independent third-party pricing service, approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”), to value its Mortgage Notes on an as needed basis. The third-party pricing servicer uses a cash flow forecast and valuation model that focuses on forecasting the frequency, timing and severity of mortgage loss behavior. The model incorporates numerous observable loan-level factors such as unpaid principal balance, remaining term of the loan and coupon rate as well as macroeconomic data including yield curves, spreads to the Treasury curves and home price indexes. The model also includes a number of unobservable factors and assumptions (such as voluntary and involuntary prepayment speeds, delinquency rates, foreclosure timing, and others) to determine a fair value. While the model requires a minimum set of data to develop a reasonable fair value, the model is capable of accepting additional data elements. The model makes certain assumptions unless a specific data element is included, in which case it uses the additional data. Not all assumptions have equal weighting in the model. Using assumptions in this manner is a part of the Fund’s valuation policy and procedures and provides consistency in the application of valuation assumptions. The third-party pricing servicer also benchmarks its pricing model against observable pricing levels being quoted by a range of market participants active in the purchase and sale of residential mortgage loans. The combination of loan level criteria and market adjustments produces a monthly price for each Mortgage Note relative to current public market conditions.

 

Prior to purchase, each Mortgage Note goes through a due diligence process that includes considerations such as underwriting borrower credit, employment history, property valuation, and delinquency history with an overall emphasis on repayment of the Mortgage Notes. The purchase price of the Mortgage Notes reflects the overall risk relative to the findings of this due diligence process.

 

The Fund invests primarily in Mortgage Notes secured by residential real estate. The market or liquidation value of each type of residential real estate collateral may be adversely affected by numerous factors, including rising interest rates; changes in the national, state and local economic climate and real estate conditions; perceptions of prospective buyers of the safety, convenience and attractiveness of the properties; maintenance and insurance

costs; changes in real estate taxes and other expenses; adverse changes in governmental rules and fiscal policies; adverse changes in zoning laws; natural disasters and other factors beyond the control of the borrowers.

 

The Fund’s investments in Mortgage Notes are subject to liquidity risk because there is a limited secondary market for Mortgage Notes. Liquidity risk exists when particular investments of the Fund would be difficult to purchase or sell, possibly preventing the Fund from selling such illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price, or possibly requiring the Fund to dispose of other investments at unfavorable times or prices in order to satisfy its obligations. Securities for which current market quotations are not readily available, such as the Mortgage Notes the Fund invests in, or for which quotations are not deemed to be representative of market values are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board in accordance with the Fund’s Portfolio Securities Valuation Procedures (the “Procedures”). The Procedures consider, among others, the following factors to determine a security’s fair value: the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; and possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security.

 

The valuation inputs and subsequent outputs are reviewed and maintained on a monthly basis. Any calibrations or adjustments to the model that may be necessary are done on an as-needed basis to facilitate fair pricing. Financial markets are monitored relative to the interest rate environment. If other available market data indicates that the pricing data from the third-party service is materially inaccurate, or pricing data is unavailable, the Fund undertakes a review of other available prices and takes additional steps to determine fair value. In all cases, the Fund validates its understanding of methodology and assumptions underlying the fair value used.

 

The Fund follows guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, where fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the market participants at the measurement date. The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. Notwithstanding, the actual sale price of a Mortgage Note will likely be different than its fair value determined under ASC 820. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical and/or similar assets and liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for similar investments or identical investments in an active market, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

 

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

 

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

 

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

 

As of March 31, 2020, management estimated that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, line of credit payable, payables for securities purchased, accrued

 

 

Vertical Capital Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
March 31, 2020
 

advisory fees, related party payables, and accrued and other liabilities were at amounts that reasonably approximated their fair value based on their highly-liquid nature and short-term maturities. This is considered a Level 1 valuation technique.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments. The following tables summarize the inputs used as of March 31, 2020 for the Fund’s assets measured at fair value:

 

Assets  Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total 
Mortgage Notes  $   $   $127,168,037   $127,168,037 
Other Investments           15,822    15,822 
Total    $   $   $127,183,859   $127,183,859 

 

There were no transfers between levels during the current period presented. It is the Fund’s policy to record transfers into or out of levels at the end of the reporting period.

 

The following is a reconciliation of assets in which Level 3 inputs were used in determining value:

 

   Mortgage Notes   Other Investments   Total 
Beginning Balance  $129,194,075   $440,909   $129,634,984 
Net realized gain (loss)   1,155,242        1,155,242 
Change in unrealized appreciation   (8,313,577)       (8,313,577)
Cost of purchases   16,263,100        16,263,100 
Proceeds from sales and principal paydowns   (11,380,072)   (440,909)   (11,820,981)
Purchase discount amortization   265,091        265,091 
Net Transfers within level 3   (15,822)   15,822     
Ending balance  $127,168,037   $15,822   $127,183,859 

 

The total change in unrealized appreciation included in the Statement of Operations attributable to Level 3 investments still held at March 31, 2020 is $(6,925,177).

 

The following table provides quantitative information about the Fund’s Level 3 values, as well as its inputs, as of March 31, 2020. The table is not all-inclusive, but provides information on the significant Level 3 inputs:

A change to the unobservable input may result in a significant change to the value of the investment as follows:

 

Security Transactions and    
Investment Income - Impact to Value if Impact to Value if
Investment Security Input Increases Input Decreases
Constant Prepayment Rate Increase Decrease
Delinquency Decrease Increase
Loan to Value Decrease Increase
Discount rate Decrease Increase
     

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash and overnight investments in interest-bearing demand deposits with a financial institution with maturities of three months or less. The Fund maintains deposits with a high quality financial institution in an amount that is in excess of federally insured limits.

 

Security Transactions and Investment Income – Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Cost is determined and gains and losses are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities are accreted and amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method.

 

Interest Income on Non-Accrual Loans – The Fund discontinues the accrual of interest on loans when, in the opinion of management, there is an assessment that the borrower will likely be unable to meet all contractual payments as they become due.

 

Credit Facility – On July 20, 2018, the Fund entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with NexBank for investment purposes and to help maintain the Fund’s liquidity, subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act for borrowings. The maximum amount of borrowing allowed under the agreement was the lesser of $35 million or 75% of the eligible portion of the Fund’s loans. Borrowings under the Nexbank agreement bear interest at a rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR plus applicable margin of 2.75%, per annum, on the outstanding principal balance. The Nexbank agreement matures on July 17, 2020 and has one one-year extension available. The Nexbank agreement is secured by assets of the Fund.

 

During the six months ended March 31, 2020 the Fund incurred deferred financing fees of $0. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing fees was $313,013 as of March 31, 2020. The average amount of borrowing outstanding for the period was $6,000,000 and the total interest expense was $139,212. The outstanding balance under the NexBank line of credit was $10,500,000 at March 31, 2020.

 

Federal Income Taxes – The Fund intends to continue to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and will distribute all of its taxable income, if any, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.

 

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken by the Fund in its 2017 - 2019 tax returns, which remain open for examination, or expected to be taken in the Fund’s 2020 tax returns. The Fund identified its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal jurisdictions where the Fund makes significant investments; however, the Fund is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next twelve months. The Fund accounts for interest and penalties for any uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. No interest or penalty expense was recorded during the six months ended March 31, 2020.

 

 

Vertical Capital Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

Distributions to Shareholders – Distributions from investment income, if any, are declared and paid monthly and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund will declare and pay net realized capital gains not previously distributed, if any, annually. The Board’s decision to declare distributions will be influenced by its obligation to ensure that the Fund maintains its federal tax status as a Registered Investment Company (“RIC”). In order to qualify as a RIC, the Fund must derive a minimum of 90% of its income from capital gains, interest or dividends earned on investments and must distribute a minimum of 90% of its net investment income in the form of interest, dividends or capital gains to its shareholders. Otherwise, the Fund may be subject to an excise tax from the IRS.

 

The character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are considered either temporary (i.e., deferred losses, capital loss carry forwards) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require classification.

 

Indemnification – The Trust indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, management of the Fund expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

 

3.INVESTMENT IN RESTRICTED SECURITIES

 

The Fund may invest in Restricted Securities (those which cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933) that are consistent with the Fund’s investment objectives and investment strategies. Investments in Restricted Securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Fund would typically have no rights to compel the obligor or issuer of a Restricted Security to register such a Restricted Security under the 1933 Act. No such securities were owned by the Fund at March 31, 2020.

 

4.INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

 

The business activities of the Fund are overseen by the Board, which is responsible for the overall management of the Fund.

 

Advisory Fees - Pursuant to an Advisory Agreement with the Fund, the Advisor, under the oversight of the Board, directs certain of the daily operations of the Fund and supervises the performance of administrative and professional services provided by others. As compensation for its services and the related expenses borne by the Advisor, the Fund pays the adviser a management fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the six months ended March 31, 2020 the Advisor earned advisory fees of $815,241.

 

The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive all or part of its management fees and/or make payments to limit Fund expenses (exclusive of any taxes, leverage interest, brokerage commissions, expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization, expenses of investing in underlying funds, or extraordinary expenses such as litigation and advisor transition expenses) so that the total annual operating expenses of the Fund do not exceed 2.25% of the average daily net assets through September 30, 2020. Waivers and expense reimbursements may be recouped by the Advisor from the Fund within three years of when the amounts were waived only if the Fund expenses are lower than both the lesser of the current expense cap and the expense cap in place at the time of

waiver. For the six months ended March 31, 2020, the Advisor waived advisory fees of $264,076. Expenses subject to recapture by the Advisor amounted to $1,196,051 that will expire on September 30, 2020, and $1,409,845 that will expire on September 30, 2021, and $692,741 that will expire on September 30, 2022. Effective February 1, 2020, David Aisner no longer served as co-portfolio manager of the Fund as he left the Advisor to pursue other opportunities. Robert J. Chapman, serves as the sole portfolio manager of the Fund. Mr. Chapman is Executive Vice President of the Advisor, Treasurer of the Fund, and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Fund.

 

In addition, certain affiliates provide services to the Fund as follows:

 

Gemini Fund Services, LLC (“GFS”) – GFS provides administration and fund accounting services to the Fund. Pursuant to a separate servicing agreement with GFS, the Fund pays GFS customary fees for providing administration and fund accounting services to the Fund. Certain officers of the Fund are also officers of GFS, and are not paid any fees directly by the Fund for serving in such capacities. For the six months ended March 31, 2020 GFS earned $96,581.

 

Northern Lights Compliance Services, LLC (“NLCS”)NLCS, an affiliate of GFS, provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund, as well as related compliance services, pursuant to a consulting agreement between NLCS and the Fund. Under the terms of such agreement, NLCS receives customary fees from the Fund. For the six months ended March 31, 2020 NLCS earned $27,621.

 

Blu Giant, LLC (“Blu Giant”)Blu Giant, an affiliate of GFS, provides EDGAR conversion and filing services as well as print management services for the Fund on an ad-hoc basis. For the provision of these services, Blu Giant receives customary fees from the Fund. For the six months ended March 31, 2020 Blu Giant earned $9,921.

 

Effective February 1, 2019, NorthStar Financial Services Group, LLC, the parent company of GFS and its affiliated companies including NLCS and Blu Giant (collectively, the “Gemini Companies”), sold its interest in the Gemini Companies to a third party private equity firm that contemporaneously acquired Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC (an independent mutual fund administration firm) and its affiliates (collectively, the “Ultimus Companies”). As a result of these separate transactions, the Gemini Companies and the Ultimus Companies are now indirectly owned through a common parent entity, The Ultimus Group, LLC.

 

Trustees – The Fund pays each Trustee who is not affiliated with the Fund or Adviser a quarterly fee of $5,000 and the lead unaffiliated Trustee a quarterly fee of $10,000. Additionally, each unaffiliated Trustee receives $2,500 per meeting as well as reimbursement for any reasonable expenses incurred attending meetings. The “interested persons” who serve as Trustees of the Fund receive no compensation for their services as Trustees. None of the executive officers receive compensation from the Fund.

 

5.INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

 

The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and paydowns of investment securities, other than U.S. Government securities and short-term investments, for the six months ended March 31, 2020 amounted to $16,263,100 and $11,820,981 respectively.

6.DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS AND TAX COMPONENTS OF CAPITAL

 

The Statement of Assets and Liabilities represents cost for financial reporting purposes. Aggregate cost for federal tax purposes is $114,351,871 and differs from fair value by net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of securities as follows:

 

Unrealized appreciation    $15,650,422 
Unrealized depreciation   (2,818,434)
Net unrealized appreciation  $12,831,988 
      

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018 was as follows:

 

   Fiscal Year Ended   Fiscal Year Ended 
   September 30, 2019     September 30, 2018 
Ordinary Income  $3,688,381   $5,580,553 
Long-Term Capital Gain   2,062,005    1,823,878 
   $5,750,386   $7,404,431 
           

As of September 30, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings/ (deficit) on a tax basis were as follows:

 

Undistributed   Undistributed   Post October Loss   Capital Loss   Other   Unrealized   Total 
Ordinary   Long-Term   and   Carry   Book/Tax   Appreciation/   Accumulated 
Income   Gains   Late Year Loss   Forwards   Differences   (Depreciation)   Earnings/(Deficits) 
$328,440   $1,801,906   $   $   $   $21,145,565   $23,275,911 
                                 

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation), undistributed net investment income (loss) and accumulated net realized gain (loss) from security transactions are primarily attributable to the adjustments for defaulted bond adjustments.

 

Permanent book and tax differences, primarily attributable to the book/tax treatment of reclassification of fund distributions and tax adjustments for paydowns resulted in reclassification for the year ended September 30, 2019 as follows:

 

Paid     
In   Accumulated 
Capital     Earnings 
$(323,663)  $323,663 
        
7.NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, which changed certain fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The ASU, in addition to other modifications and additions, removed the requirement to disclose the amount and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and the policy for the timing of transfers between levels. For investment companies, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. These amendments have been adopted with these financial statements.

8.MARKET RISK AND CORONAVIRUS

 

Unexpected local, regional or global events, such as war; acts of terrorism; financial, political or social disruptions; natural, environmental or man-made disasters; the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health issues; and recessions and depressions could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments and may impair market liquidity. Such events can cause investor fear, which can adversely affect the economies of nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness known as COVID-19, which is caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), was first detected in China in December 2019 and subsequently spread globally. This coronavirus has resulted in, among other things, travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, significant disruptions to business operations, market closures, cancellations and restrictions, supply chain disruptions, lower consumer demand, and significant volatility and declines in global financial markets, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19 has adversely affected, and other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future could adversely affect, the economies of the U.S., many other nations and the entire global economy, as well as individual mortgage note borrowers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. Public health crises caused by the COVID-19 outbreak may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in the U.S., certain other countries or globally. The duration of the COVID-19 outbreak and its effects cannot be determined with certainty.

 

9.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Fund is required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Fund is required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has determined that other than those disclosed in these financial statements, there were no other subsequent events to report through the issuance of these financial statements.

 

 

Supplemental Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
 

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

 

Unless the registered owner of shares elects to receive cash by contacting the Plan Agent, all dividends declared for the shares of the Fund will be automatically paid in the form of, or reinvested by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“AST”) (the “Plan Agent”), agent for shareholders in administering the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”), in additional shares of the Fund. If you are a registered owner of shares and elect not to participate in the Plan, you will receive all dividends or other distributions (together, a “dividend”) in cash paid by check mailed directly to you (or, if the shares are held in street or other nominee name, then to such nominee) by AST, as dividend disbursing agent. You may elect not to participate in the Plan and to receive all dividends in cash by sending written instructions or by contacting AST, as dividend disbursing agent, at the address set forth below. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by contacting the Plan Agent before the dividend record date; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend. Some brokers or other financial intermediaries through which shareholders may hold their shares, may automatically elect to receive cash on the shareholders’ behalf and may reinvest that cash in additional shares of the Fund for the respective shareholders.

 

The Plan Agent will open an account for each shareholder under the Plan in the same name in which such shareholder’s shares are registered. Whenever the Fund declares a dividend payable in cash, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in shares. The shares will be acquired by the Plan Agent for the participants’ accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized shares from the Fund (“newly issued shares”) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding shares on the open market (“open-market purchases”) on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere.

 

Whenever the Fund declares a dividend, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in shares. The shares will be acquired by the Plan Agent for the participants’ accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized shares from the Fund (newly issued shares) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding shares on the open market (open-market purchases”) on the NYSE or elsewhere. If, on the payment date for any dividend, the closing market price plus estimated brokerage commissions per share is equal to or greater than the NAV per share, the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in newly issued shares on behalf of the participants. The number of newly issued shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend by the Fund’s NAV per share on the payment date. If, on the payment date for any dividend, the NAV per share is greater than the closing market value plus estimated brokerage commissions (i.e., the Fund’s shares are trading at a discount), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired on behalf of the participants in open-market purchases.

 

In the event of a market discount on the payment date for any dividend, the Plan Agent will have until the last business day before the next date on which the shares trade on an “ex-dividend” basis or 30 days after the payment date for such dividend, whichever is sooner (the “last purchase date”), to invest the dividend amount in shares acquired in open-market purchases. It is contemplated that

 

 

Supplemental Information (Unaudited)(Continued)
 

the Fund will pay monthly income dividends. If, before the Plan Agent has completed its open-market purchases, the market price per share exceeds the NAV per share, the average per share purchase price paid by the Plan Agent may exceed the NAV of the shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend had been paid in newly issued shares on the dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to open-market purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend amount in open-market purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Agent may cease making open-market purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the dividend amount in newly issued shares at the NAV per share.

 

The Plan Agent maintains all shareholders’ accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmation of all transactions in the accounts, including information needed by shareholders for tax records. shares in the account of each Plan participant will be held by the Plan Agent on behalf of the Plan participant, and each shareholder proxy will include those shares purchased or received pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Agent will forward all proxy solicitation materials to participants and vote proxies for shares held under the Plan in accordance with the instructions of the participants.

 

In the case of shareholders such as banks, brokers or nominees which hold shares for others who are the beneficial owners, the Plan Agent will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of shares certified from time to time by the record shareholder’s name and held for the account of beneficial owners who participate in the Plan.

 

There will be no brokerage charges with respect to shares issued directly by the Fund. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred in connection with open-market purchases. The automatic reinvestment of dividends will not relieve participants of any tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such dividends. Accordingly, any taxable dividend received by a participant that is reinvested in additional shares will be subject to U.S. federal (and possibly state and local) income tax even though such participant will not receive a corresponding amount of cash with which to pay such taxes. Participants who request a sale of shares through the Plan Agent are subject to a $15.00 sales fee and pay a brokerage commission of $0.12 per share sold.

 

The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants.

 

All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent at American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219; telephone 1-866-277-8243.
