- On November 5, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program. Pursuant to the program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $10 million in the aggregate of its outstanding common stock in the open market. The timing, manner, price and amount of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company's management, in its discretion, based upon the evaluation of economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal and regulatory requirements and other factors. The program will be in effect until the approved dollar amount has been used to repurchase shares. The program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares and the Company cannot assure you that any shares will be repurchased under the program. The program may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time.
- Net asset value of $149.8 million, or $11.08 per share

Vijay Rajguru, CEO of Alcentra, commented on the quarter: "We have continued to execute on our plan to shift our portfolio toward a more traditional private-equity focused, middle market, senior secured strategy. Our goal remains to establish and maintain a more stable asset base and NAV, with appropriate risk/return characteristics that provide attractive dividends and returns to our shareholders. Our NAV per share has stabilized, increasing 0.6% since Q2 2018, and we expect our strategy to yield further stability as we continue our rotation into middle market senior secured loans. This rotation is particularly important in market conditions which, while remaining healthy, require caution this late in the economic cycle."
Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, total investment income was $6.6 million, a decrease of $1.0 million over the $7.6 million of total investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2017. This decrease was due to the continued transition of the portfolio to senior secured loans. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, interest and PIK income comprised $6.5 million and other non-recurring income was $0.1 million.
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, net expenses (total expenses less a management fee waiver) were $3.6 million, an increase of $0.8 million over the $2.8 million of net expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017. While net expenses increased, total expenses decreased by $0.2 million due to lower management fees and the reversal of previously accrued incentive fees, partially offset by an increase in interest and credit facility expense.
Net investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $3.0 million or $0.22 per share as compared to $4.8 million or $0.34 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2017.
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a net realized loss from portfolio investments of $0.04 million and a net increase in unrealized appreciation from portfolio investments of $0.1 million after the provision for taxes as compared to a net realized loss from portfolio investments of $10.4 million and a net change in unrealized depreciation from portfolio investments of $6.5 million after the provision for taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2017. As a result, our net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $3.1 million after the provision for taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to our net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $1.6 million after the benefit for taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2017.
Portfolio and Investment Activities
As of September 30, 2018, the fair value of our investment portfolio totaled $248.6 million and consisted of 34 investments in 28 companies, 5 broadly syndicated loans, and 1 rated debt security in a CLO. The average portfolio investment size on a cost basis was $6.9 million and equity investments constituted 10.8% of the portfolio. We received proceeds from repayments, loan dispositions, and amortizations on investments of $4.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2018. This included the sale of Blue Mountain CLO and OZLM Funding IV Ltd CLO and various amortization payments from portfolio investments.
New and add-on investments totaling $6.1 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018 included the following:
- Value-Based Care Solutions Group (since re-named Virence Health Technologies) - $6.0 million in L+8.125% 2nd lien secured debt
- Envocore - $0.06 million of preferred equity
As of September 30, 2018, Alcentra had four debt investments, Black Diamond Rentals, Show Media, Inc., Southern Technical Institute, Inc. and Xpress Global Systems, LLC on non-accrual status.
