NEW YORK, Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BCP Investment Corporation (NASDAQ: BCIC) (“BCIC” or “the Company”) announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Milestone

• On July 15, 2025, the Company successfully completed the merger with Logan Ridge Finance Corporation (“LRFC”) with and into the Company, with the combined company now operating as BCP Investment Corporation. The transaction marked a significant milestone for the Company, providing increased scale, broader portfolio diversification, and enhanced operating efficiencies.
  

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

• Total investment income for the third quarter of 2025 increased 50.0% to $18.9 million, from $12.6 million in the second quarter of 2025.
• Core investment income¹, excluding the impact of purchase price accounting, for the third quarter of 2025 was $15.3 million, as compared to $12.6 million for the second quarter of 2025.
• Net investment income (“NII”) for the third quarter of 2025 increased 94.2% to $8.8 million ($0.71 per share), as compared to $4.6 million ($0.50 per share) in the second quarter of 2025.
• Net asset value (“NAV”), as of September 30, 2025, increased 40.4% to $231.3 million ($17.55 per share), as compared to NAV of $164.7 million ($17.89 per share) as of June 30, 2025.

• Expect that between the tender offer, buybacks, and open market repurchases by management, the investment adviser and its affiliates, we anticipate total repurchases when combined with management’s, the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ ownership of BCIC’s outstanding common stock could approximate 10% of BCIC’s outstanding common stock by year end.
  

Subsequent Events

• On October 7, 2025, the Company obtained a BBB- rating from a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”) with respect to the 5.25% fixed-rate convertible notes due 2032 (the “2032 Convertible Notes”) and the 5.25% fixed-rate notes due 2026 (the “LRFC 2026 Notes”). Starting on October 7, 2025, as a result of the rating, the 2032 Convertible Notes and 2026 Notes have a fixed interest rate of 5.25% per annum.
• On October 10, 2025, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement in connection with the issuance and sale of $35.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.50% notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) and $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.75% notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”, together with the 2028 Notes, the “Notes”), under an effective shelf registration statement. The offering closed and the Notes were issued on October 15, 2025. The 2028 Notes mature on October 15, 2028 and the 2030 Notes mature on October 15, 2030. Interest on each of the Notes is payable semi-annually on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing October 30, 2025.

• Between October 1, 2025 and November 4, 2025, the Company repurchased 103,690 shares of its common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $1.2 million at an average price of $11.62 per share.
• The Company, its management, the Adviser, and the Company’s affiliates intend to commence a modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase up to $9.0 million of the Company’s common stock. The Company is expected to offer to repurchase at least $7.5 million, with its management, the Adviser, and the Company’s affiliates repurchasing any remaining shares tendered up to $9.0 million. The Tender Offer is expected to commence on or after November 10, 2025 and expire at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time, on or after December 10, 2025, unless extended. Based on the number of shares tendered and the prices specified by the tendering stockholders, the Company will determine the lowest per-share price that will enable it, its management, the Adviser, and the Company’s affiliates to acquire up to $9.0 million of its common stock. All shares accepted in the Tender Offer will be purchased at the same price even if tendered at a lower price.

Management Commentary
Ted Goldthorpe, Chief Executive Officer of BCP Investment Corporation, stated, “We are pleased to report strong results for the third quarter, our first earnings as a combined company following the completion of our merger with LRFC on July 15, 2025. This milestone marks the beginning of a new chapter for BCIC, as we continue to leverage our expanded scale, broader portfolio diversification, and enhanced operating efficiency to drive long-term value for shareholders.

I am also pleased to report meaningful progress on the value creation initiatives we announced in June 2025. Notably, consistent with our previously stated intentions, the Company plans to commence a modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer of approximately $9.0 million. Combined with the daily share repurchases executed by the Company under the buyback program as well as open market purchases by management, the Adviser and its affiliates, we anticipate total repurchases when combined with management’s, the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ ownership of BCIC’s outstanding common stock could approximate 10% by year-end. These actions underscore our continued focus on driving shareholder value and narrowing the discount to NAV.

During the quarter, we generated net investment income of $8.8 million, or $0.71 per share, compared to $4.6 million, or $0.50 per share, in the prior quarter. We expect to realize further benefits of our expanded scale and broader investment platform.

Finally, consistent with our long-term approach to capital, we proactively extended and laddered our unsecured debt maturities, issuing $75 million of 7.75% notes due October 2030 and $35 million of 7.50% notes due October 2028, while initiating the redemption of our 4.875% notes due 2026, expected to be completed on or about November 13, 2025. These actions diversify funding, reduce near-term refinancing risk and enhance financial flexibility.

Looking ahead, our focus remains on disciplined capital allocation, maintaining a high-quality portfolio, and delivering attractive, risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders. With a larger, more diversified platform and a stronger balance sheet, we believe we are well positioned to drive continued earnings growth and long-term value creation.”

For illustrative purposes, if you were to combine the Company’s investment portfolio with LRFC’s as of June 30, 2025, the Company would have had nine debt investments on non-accrual status representing 2.5% and 6.2% of the combination of the Company’s and LRFC’s investment portfolio at fair value and amortized cost, respectively, as of June 30, 2025.

Results of Operations

Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, were as follows:

Investment Income
The composition of our investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and September 30, 2024, was as follows:

Fair Value of Investments

The composition of our investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, at cost and fair value was as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $324.6 million (par value) of outstanding borrowings at a current weighted average interest rate of 6.1%, of which $160.5 million par value had a fixed rate and $164.1 million par value had a floating rate.

As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the fair value of investments and cash were as follows:

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had unrestricted cash of $2.8 million and restricted cash of $14.6 million. This compares to unrestricted cash of $11.2 million and restricted cash of $13.4 million as of June 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $69.2 million of available borrowing capacity under the JPM Credit Facility and $41.7 million of available borrowing capacity under the KB Credit Facility.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s investment income is affected by fluctuations in various interest rates, including SOFR and prime rates.

As of September 30, 2025, approximately 85.2% of our Debt Securities Portfolio at par value were either floating rate with a spread to an interest rate index such as SOFR. 84.1% of these floating rate loans contain floors ranging between 0.50% and 5.25%. We generally expect that future portfolio investments will predominately be floating rate investments.

In periods of rising or lowering interest rates, the cost of the portion of debt associated with the 7.50% Notes Due 2028, 7.75% Notes Due 2030, 4.875% Notes due 2026, 2032 Convertible Notes and LRFC 2026 Notes would remain the same, given that this debt is at a fixed rate, while the interest rate on borrowings under the Great Lakes Portman Ridge Funding LLC Revolving Credit Facility and the KeyBank Credit Facility would fluctuate with changes in interest rates.

Generally, the Company would expect that an increase in the base rate index for floating rate investment assets would increase gross investment income and a decrease in the base rate index for such assets would decrease gross investment income (in either case, such increase/decrease may be limited by interest rate floors/minimums for certain investment assets).

1} Core investment income represents reported total investment income as determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, less the impact of purchase discount accretion in connection with the Garrison Capital Inc. (“GARS”), Harvest Capital Credit Corporation (“HCAP”), and LRFC mergers. BCIC believes presenting core investment income and the related per share amount is a useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial performance due to the unique circumstance giving rise to the purchase accounting adjustment. However, core investment income is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for total investment income and other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, core investment income should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing BCIC’s financial performance.

² Net leverage is calculated as the ratio between (A) debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, less available cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash and (B) NAV. BCIC believes presenting a net leverage ratio is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure because it reflects the Company’s financial condition net of $17.4 million, $24.6 million and $23.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as of September 30, 2025, June 30, 2025, and March 31, 2025, respectively. However, the net leverage ratio is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for the regulatory asset coverage ratio and other similar information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, the net leverage ratio should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing BCIC’s financial condition.
