Overview
Owl Rock Capital Corporation (the "Company", "we", "us" or "our") is aMaryland corporation formed onOctober 15, 2015 . We were formed primarily to originate and make loans to, and make debt and equity investments in,U.S. middle market companies. We invest in senior secured or unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, equity and equity-related securities including warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity, which may or may not be convertible into a portfolio company's common equity. Our investment objective is to generate current income, and to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. We are managed byOwl Rock Capital Advisors LLC ("the Adviser" or "our Adviser"). The Adviser is registered with theSEC as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors ("the Board" or "our Board"), the Adviser manages our day-to-day operations, and provides investment advisory and management services to us. The Adviser or its affiliates may engage in certain origination activities and receive attendant arrangement, structuring or similar fees. The Adviser is responsible for managing our business and activities, including sourcing investment opportunities, conducting research, performing diligence on potential investments, structuring our investments, and monitoring our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis through a team of investment professionals. The Board consists of seven directors, four of whom are independent. OnJuly 22, 2019 , we closed our initial public offering ("IPO"), issuing 10 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of$15.30 per share, and onAugust 2, 2019 , the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 1.5 million shares of common stock at a purchase price of$15.30 per share. Net of underwriting fees and offering costs, we received total cash proceeds of$164.0 million . Our common stock began trading on theNew York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "ORCC" onJuly 18, 2019 . In connection with the IPO, onJuly 22, 2019 , we entered into a stock repurchase plan (the "Company 10b5-1 Plan"), to acquire up to$150 million in the aggregate of our common stock at prices below its net asset value per share over a specified period, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , we have acquired 4,096,546 shares for approximately$48.0 million , pursuant to the Company 10b5-1 Plan. The Company 10b5-1 Plan commenced onAugust 19, 2019 . The Adviser also serves as investment adviser toOwl Rock Capital Corporation II. Owl Rock Capital Corporation II is a corporation formed under the laws of theState of Maryland that, like us, has elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the 1940 Act.Owl Rock Capital Corporation II's investment objective is similar to ours, which is to generate current income, and to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , Owl Rock Capital Corporation II had raised gross proceeds of approximately$1.1 billion , including seed capital contributed by the Adviser inSeptember 2016 and approximately$10.0 million in gross proceeds raised from certain individuals and entities affiliated with the Adviser. The Adviser is under common control withOwl Rock Technology Advisors LLC ("ORTA") andOwl Rock Capital Private Fund Advisors LLC ("ORPFA"), which also are investment advisers and subsidiaries ofOwl Rock Capital Partners . The Adviser, ORTA and ORPFA are referred to as the "Owl Rock Advisers" and together withOwl Rock Capital Partners are referred to, collectively, as "Owl Rock." We may be prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our directors who are not interested persons and, in some cases, the prior approval of theSEC . We, our Adviser and certain affiliates have been granted exemptive relief by theSEC to permit us to co-invest with other funds managed by our Adviser or certain of its affiliates, includingOwl Rock Capital Corporation II andOwl Rock Technology Finance Corp. , in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. Pursuant to such exemptive relief, we generally are permitted to co-invest with certain of our affiliates if a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the transactions, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our shareholders and do not involve overreaching by us or our shareholders on the part of any person concerned, (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our shareholders and is consistent with our investment objective and strategies, and (3) the investment by our affiliates would not disadvantage us, and our participation would not be on a basis different from or less advantageous than that 65 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- on which our affiliates are investing. In addition, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by theSEC onApril 8, 2020 and applicable to all BDCs, throughDecember 31, 2020 , we may, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, co-invest in our existing portfolio companies with certain other funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates and covered by our exemptive relief, even if such other funds have not previously invested in such existing portfolio company. Without this order, affiliated funds would not be able to participate in such co-investments with us unless the affiliated funds had previously acquired securities of the portfolio company in a co-investment transaction with us. Owl Rock Advisers' allocation policy seeks to ensure equitable allocation of investment opportunities over time between us and other funds managed by our Adviser or its affiliates. As a result of the exemptive relief, there could be significant overlap in our investment portfolio and the investment portfolio of other funds established by the Adviser or its affiliates that could avail themselves of the exemptive relief. OnApril 27, 2016 , we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary,OR Lending LLC , aDelaware limited liability company, which holds aCalifornia finance lenders license. ORLending LLC makes loans to borrowers headquartered inCalifornia . For time to time we may form wholly-owned subsidiaries to facilitate our normal course of business. We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and as a regulated investment company ("RIC") for tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a result, we are required to comply with various statutory and regulatory requirements, such as:
• the requirement to invest at least 70% of our assets in "qualifying
assets", as such term is defined in the 1940 Act; • source of income limitations; • asset diversification requirements; and • the requirement to distribute (or be treated as distributing) in each taxable year at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and tax-exempt interest for that taxable year.
COVID-19 Developments
InMarch 2020 , the outbreak of COVID-19 was recognized as a pandemic by theWorld Health Organization . Shortly thereafter, the President ofthe United States declared a National Emergency throughoutthe United States attributable to such outbreak. The outbreak has become increasingly widespread inthe United States , including in the markets in which the Company operates. We have and continue to assess the impact of COVID-19 on our portfolio companies. We cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its duration inthe United States and worldwide and the magnitude of the economic impact of the outbreak, including with respect to the travel restrictions, business closures and other quarantine measures imposed on service providers and other individuals by various local, state, and federal governmental authorities, as well as non-U.S. governmental authorities. As such, we are unable to predict the duration of any business and supply-chain disruptions, the extent to which COVID-19 will negatively affect our portfolio companies' operating results or the impact that such disruptions may have on our results of operations and financial condition. Though the magnitude of the impact remains to be seen, we expect our portfolio companies and, by extension, our operating results to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 and depending on the duration and extent of the disruption to the operations of our portfolio companies, we expect that certain portfolio companies will experience financial distress and possibly default on their financial obligations to us and their other capital providers. We also expect that some of our portfolio companies may significantly curtail business operations, furlough or lay off employees and terminate service providers, and defer capital expenditures if subjected to prolonged and severe financial distress, which could impair their business on a permanent basis. We continue to closely monitor our portfolio companies, which includes assessing each portfolio company's operational and liquidity exposure and outlook; however, any of these developments would likely result in a decrease in the value of our investment in any such portfolio company. In addition, to the extent that the impact to our portfolio companies results in reduced interest payments or permanent impairments on our investments, we could see a decrease in our net investment income which would increase the percentage of our cash flows dedicated to our debt obligations and could require us to reduce the future amount of distributions to our shareholders. During the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 , we experienced both a decrease in originations, which reflects the lower levels of private equity deal activity in that time period, and an increase in repayments. For the three months endingJune 30, 2020 , we expect the performance of our portfolio companies to continue to be impacted by COVID-19 and the related economic slowdown, and therefore, while we have highlighted our liquidity and available capital, we are focused on preserving that capital for our existing portfolio companies in order to protect the value of our investments.
Our Investment Framework
We are aMaryland corporation organized primarily to originate and make loans to, and make debt and equity investments in,U.S. middle market companies. Our investment objective is to generate current income, and to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by targeting investment opportunities with favorable risk-adjusted returns. Since our Adviser and its affiliates began investment activities inApril 2016 throughMarch 31, 2020 , our Adviser and its affiliates have originated$21.0 billion aggregate principal amount of investments, of which$19.4 billion of aggregate principal amount of investments prior to any subsequent exits or repayments, was 66 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- retained by either us or a corporation or fund advised by our Adviser or its affiliates. We seek to generate current income primarily inU.S. middle market companies through direct originations of senior secured loans or originations of unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, investments in equity and equity-related securities including warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity. We define "middle market companies" generally to mean companies with earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, or "EBITDA," between$10 million and$250 million annually and/or annual revenue of$50 million to$2.5 billion at the time of investment, although we may on occasion invest in smaller or larger companies if an opportunity presents itself. We expect that generally our portfolio composition will be majority debt or income producing securities, which may include "covenant-lite" loans (as defined below), with a lesser allocation to equity or equity-linked opportunities. In addition, we may invest a portion of our portfolio in opportunistic investments, which will not be our primary focus, but will be intended to enhance returns to our Shareholders. These investments may include high-yield bonds and broadly-syndicated loans. In addition, we generally do not intend to invest more than 20% of our total assets in companies whose principal place of business is outsidethe United States , although we do not generally intend to invest in companies whose principal place of business is in an emerging market. Our portfolio composition may fluctuate from time to time based on market conditions and interest rates. Covenants are contractual restrictions that lenders place on companies to limit the corporate actions a company may pursue. Generally, the loans in which we expect to invest will have financial maintenance covenants, which are used to proactively address materially adverse changes in a portfolio company's financial performance. However, to a lesser extent, we may invest in "covenant-lite" loans. We use the term "covenant-lite" to refer generally to loans that do not have a complete set of financial maintenance covenants. Generally, "covenant-lite" loans provide borrower companies more freedom to negatively impact lenders because their covenants are incurrence-based, which means they are only tested and can only be breached following an affirmative action of the borrower, rather than by a deterioration in the borrower's financial condition. Accordingly, to the extent we invest in "covenant-lite" loans, we may have fewer rights against a borrower and may have a greater risk of loss on such investments as compared to investments in or exposure to loans with financial maintenance covenants. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , our average debt investment size in each of our portfolio companies was approximately$89.1 million based on fair value. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , our portfolio companies, excluding the investment inSebago Lake and certain investments that fall outside of our typical borrower profile and represent 95.9% of our total portfolio based on fair value, had weighted average annual revenue of$416 million and weighted average annual EBITDA of$83 million . The companies in which we invest use our capital to support their growth, acquisitions, market or product expansion, refinancings and/or recapitalizations. The debt in which we invest typically is not rated by any rating agency, but if these instruments were rated, they would likely receive a rating of below investment grade (that is, below BBB- or Baa3), which is often referred to as "high yield" or "junk".
Key Components of Our Results of Operations
Investments
We focus primarily on the direct origination of loans to middle market companies
domiciled in
Our level of investment activity (both the number of investments and the size of each investment) can and will vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.
In addition, as part of our risk strategy on investments, we may reduce the levels of certain investments through partial sales or syndication to additional lenders.
Revenues We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we may generate income from dividends on either direct equity investments or equity interests obtained in connection with originating loans, such as options, warrants or conversion rights. Our debt investments typically have a term of three to ten years. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , 100.0% of our debt investments based on fair value bear interest at a floating rate, subject to interest rate floors, in certain cases. Interest on our debt investments is generally payable either monthly or quarterly. Our investment portfolio consists primarily of floating rate loans, and our credit facilities bear interest at floating rates. Macro trends in base interest rates like London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") may affect our net investment income over the long term. However, because we generally originate loans to a small number of portfolio companies each quarter, and those investments vary in size, our results in any given period, including the interest rate on investments that were sold or repaid in a period compared to the 67 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
interest rate of new investments made during that period, often are idiosyncratic, and reflect the characteristics of the particular portfolio companies that we invested in or exited during the period and not necessarily any trends in our business or macro trends.
Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts underU.S. GAAP as interest income using the effective yield method for term instruments and the straight-line method for revolving or delayed draw instruments. Repayments of our debt investments can reduce interest income from period to period. The frequency or volume of these repayments may fluctuate significantly. We record prepayment premiums on loans as interest income. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, loan origination, structuring, or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance to our portfolio companies and possibly consulting fees.
Dividend income on equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded companies.
Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds from sales of investments. We recognize realized gains or losses on investments based on the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. We record current period changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the consolidated statement of operations.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of the management fee and, when the incentive fee waiver expires, the incentive fee, and expenses reimbursable under the Administration Agreement and Investment Advisory Agreement. The management fee and incentive fee compensate our Adviser for work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing, monitoring and realizing our investments. Except as specifically provided below, all investment professionals and staff of the Adviser, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory and management services to us, the base compensation, bonus and benefits, and the routine overhead expenses of such personnel allocable to such services, are provided and paid for by the Adviser. We bear our allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser (or its affiliates) to our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer and their respective staffs (based on a percentage of time such individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to our business affairs). We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations, administration and transactions, including, but not limited to (i) investment advisory fees, including management fees and incentive fees, to the Adviser, pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement; (ii) our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement; and (iii) all other costs and expenses of its operations and transactions including, without limitation, those relating to:
• the cost of our organization and offerings;
• the cost of calculating our net asset value, including the cost of any
third-party valuation services;
• the cost of effecting any sales and repurchases of our common stock and
other securities;
• fees and expenses payable under any dealer manager agreements, if any;
• debt service and other costs of borrowings or other financing arrangements;
• costs of hedging;
• expenses, including travel expense, incurred by the Adviser, or members
of the investment team, or payable to third parties, performing due
diligence on prospective portfolio companies and, if necessary, enforcing
our rights; • transfer agent and custodial fees; • fees and expenses associated with marketing efforts;
• federal and state registration fees, any stock exchange listing fees and
fees payable to rating agencies; • federal, state and local taxes;
• independent directors' fees and expenses including certain travel expenses;
• costs of preparing financial statements and maintaining books and records
and filing reports or other documents with the
bodies) and other reporting and compliance costs, including registration
and listing fees, and the compensation of professionals responsible for
the preparation of the foregoing; • the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to our shareholders (including printing and mailing costs), the costs of any shareholder or director meetings and the compensation of investor
relations personnel responsible for the preparation of the foregoing and
related matters; • commissions and other compensation payable to brokers or dealers; 68
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• research and market data;
• fidelity bond, directors' and officers' errors and omissions liability
insurance and other insurance premiums;
• direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing, mailing,
long distance telephone and staff;
• fees and expenses associated with independent audits, outside legal and
consulting costs; • costs of winding up; • costs incurred in connection with the formation or maintenance of entities or vehicles to hold our assets for tax or other purposes; • extraordinary expenses (such as litigation or indemnification); and
• costs associated with reporting and compliance obligations under the 1940
Act and applicable federal and state securities laws.
We expect, but cannot assure, that our general and administrative expenses will increase in dollar terms during periods of asset growth, but will decline as a percentage of total assets during such periods.
Leverage
The amount of leverage we use in any period depends on a variety of factors, including cash available for investing, the cost of financing and general economic and market conditions. Generally, our total borrowings are limited so that we cannot incur additional borrowings, including through the issuance of additional debt securities, if such additional indebtedness would cause our asset coverage ratio to fall below 200%, as defined in the 1940 Act; however, recent legislation has modified the 1940 Act by allowing a BDC to increase the maximum amount of leverage it may incur from an asset coverage ratio of 200% to an asset coverage ratio of 150%, if certain requirements are met. This means that generally, we can borrow up to$1 for every$1 of investor equity (or, if certain conditions are met, we can borrow up to$2 for every$1 of investor equity). The reduced asset coverage requirement would permit a BDC to double the amount of leverage it could incur. We are permitted to increase our leverage capacity if shareholders representing at least a majority of the votes cast, when quorum is met, approve a proposal to do so. If we receive such shareholder approval, we would be permitted to increase our leverage capacity on the first day after such approval. Alternatively, we may increase the maximum amount of leverage we may incur to an asset coverage ratio of 150% if the required majority (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the independent members of our Board approves such increase with such approval becoming effective after one year. In addition, before incurring any such additional leverage, we would have to renegotiate or receive a waiver from the contractual leverage limitations under our Revolving Credit Facility. In any period, our interest expense will depend largely on the extent of our borrowing, and we expect interest expense will increase as we increase our debt outstanding. In addition, we may dedicate assets to financing facilities. OnMarch 31, 2020 , our Board, including a "required majority" (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act) of our Board, approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act, as amended by the Small Business Credit Availability Act. As a result, effective onMarch 31, 2021 (unless we receive earlier shareholder approval), our asset coverage requirement applicable to senior securities will be reduced from 200% to 150%. We are seeking shareholder approval for the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, as amended by the Small Business Credit Availability Act, at our shareholder meeting to be held onJune 8, 2020 . Once the application of the modified asset coverage ratio is effective and provided we have amended our Revolving Credit Facility to allow for the reduced asset coverage, we plan to target a debt-to-equity range of 0.90x to 1.25x.
Market Trends
We believe the middle-market lending environment provides opportunities for us to meet our goal of making investments that generate attractive risk-adjusted returns based on a combination of the following factors, which continue to remain true in the current environment, with the economic shutdown resulting from the COVID-19 national health emergency. Limited Availability of Capital for Middle-Market Companies. We believe that regulatory and structural changes in the market have reduced the amount of capital available toU.S. middle-market companies. In particular, we believe there are currently fewer providers of capital to middle market companies. We believe that many commercial and investment banks have, in recent years, de-emphasized their service and product offerings to middle-market businesses in favor of lending to large corporate clients and managing capital markets transactions. In addition, these lenders may be constrained in their ability to underwrite and hold bank loans and high yield securities for middle-market issuers as they seek to meet existing and future regulatory capital requirements. We also believe that there is a lack of market participants that are willing to hold meaningful amounts of certain middle-market loans. As a result, we believe our ability to minimize syndication risk for a company seeking financing by being able to hold its loans without having to syndicate them, coupled with reduced capacity of traditional lenders to serve the middle-market, present an attractive opportunity to invest in middle-market companies. 69 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capital Markets Have Been Unable to Fill the Void inU.S. Middle Market Finance Left by Banks. While underwritten bond and syndicated loan markets have been robust in recent years, middle market companies are less able to access these markets for reasons including the following: High Yield Market - Middle market companies generally are not issuing debt in an amount large enough to be an attractively sized bond. High yield bonds are generally purchased by institutional investors who, among other things, are focused on the liquidity characteristics of the bond being issued. For example, mutual funds and exchange traded funds ("ETFs") are significant buyers of underwritten bonds. However, mutual funds and ETFs generally require the ability to liquidate their investments quickly in order to fund investor redemptions and/or comply with regulatory requirements. Accordingly, the existence of an active secondary market for bonds is an important consideration in these entities' initial investment decision. Because there is typically little or no active secondary market for the debt ofU.S. middle market companies, mutual funds and ETFs generally do not provide debt capital toU.S. middle market companies. We believe this is likely to be a persistent problem and creates an advantage for those like us who have a more stable capital base and have the ability to invest in illiquid assets. Syndicated Loan Market - While the syndicated loan market is modestly more accommodating to middle market issuers, as with bonds, loan issue size and liquidity are key drivers of institutional appetite and, correspondingly, underwriters' willingness to underwrite the loans. Loans arranged through a bank are done either on a "best efforts" basis or are underwritten with terms plus provisions that permit the underwriters to change certain terms, including pricing, structure, yield and tenor, otherwise known as "flex", to successfully syndicate the loan, in the event the terms initially marketed are insufficiently attractive to investors. Furthermore, banks are generally reluctant to underwrite middle market loans because the arrangement fees they may earn on the placement of the debt generally are not sufficient to meet the banks' return hurdles. Loans provided by companies such as ours provide certainty to issuers in that we can commit to a given amount of debt on specific terms, at stated coupons and with agreed upon fees. As we are the ultimate holder of the loans, we do not require market "flex" or other arrangements that banks may require when acting on an agency basis. Robust Demand forDebt Capital . We believeU.S. middle market companies will continue to require access to debt capital to refinance existing debt, support growth and finance acquisitions. In addition, we believe the large amount of uninvested capital held by funds of private equity firms, estimated byPreqin Ltd. , an alternative assets industry data and research company, to be$1.5 trillion as ofJune 2019 , will continue to drive deal activity. We expect that private equity sponsors will continue to pursue acquisitions and leverage their equity investments with secured loans provided by companies such as us. The Middle Market is a Large Addressable Market. According toGE Capital's National Center for the Middle Market 4th quarter 2019 Middle Market Indicator, there are approximately 200,000U.S. middle market companies, which have approximately 47.9 million aggregate employees. Moreover, theU.S. middle market accounts for one-third of private sector gross domestic product ("GDP").GE definesU.S. middle market companies as those between$10 million and$1 billion in annual revenue, which we believe has significant overlap with our definition ofU.S. middle market companies. Attractive Investment Dynamics. An imbalance between the supply of, and demand for, middle market debt capital creates attractive pricing dynamics. We believe the directly negotiated nature of middle market financings also generally provides more favorable terms to the lender, including stronger covenant and reporting packages, better call protection, and lender-protective change of control provisions. Additionally, we believe BDC managers' expertise in credit selection and ability to manage through credit cycles has generally resulted in BDCs experiencing lower loss rates thanU.S. commercial banks through credit cycles. Further, we believe that historical middle market default rates have been lower, and recovery rates have been higher, as compared to the larger market capitalization, broadly distributed market, leading to lower cumulative losses. Lastly, we believe that in the current environment, with the economic shutdown resulting from the COVID-19 national health emergency, lenders with available capital may be able to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities as the economy re-opens and may be able to achieve improved economic spreads and documentation terms. Conservative Capital Structures. Following the credit crisis, which we define broadly as occurring between mid-2007 and mid-2009, lenders have generally required borrowers to maintain more equity as a percentage of their total capitalization, specifically to protect lenders during economic downturns. With more conservative capital structures,U.S. middle market companies have exhibited higher levels of cash flows available to service their debt. In addition,U.S. middle market companies often are characterized by simpler capital structures than larger borrowers, which facilitates a streamlined underwriting process and, when necessary, restructuring process. Attractive Opportunities in Investments in Loans. We invest in senior secured or unsecured loans, subordinated loans or mezzanine loans and, to a lesser extent, equity and equity-related securities. We believe that opportunities in senior secured loans are significant because of the floating rate structure of most senior secured debt issuances and because of the strong defensive characteristics of these types of investments. Given the current low interest rate environment, we believe that debt issues with floating interest rates offer a superior return profile as compared with fixed-rate investments, since floating rate structures are generally less susceptible to declines in value experienced by fixed-rate securities in a rising interest rate environment. Senior secured debt also provides strong defensive characteristics. Senior secured debt has priority in payment among an issuer's security holders whereby 70 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- holders are due to receive payment before junior creditors and equity holders. Further, these investments are secured by the issuer's assets, which may provide protection in the event of a default.

securities
Weighted average spread over LIBOR of all 6.3 % 6.3 % floating rate investments The weighted average yield of our debt and income producing securities is not the same as a return on investment for our shareholders but, rather, relates to our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of our and our subsidiaries' fees and expenses. The weighted average yield was computed using the effective interest rates as of each respective date, including accretion of original issue discount and loan origination fees, but excluding investments on non-accrual status, if any. There can be no assurance that the weighted average yield will remain at its current level. Our Adviser monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if they are meeting their respective business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action with respect to each portfolio company. Our Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:
• assessment of success of the portfolio company in adhering to its
business plan and compliance with covenants;
• periodic and regular contact with portfolio company management and, if
appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor, to discuss financial
position, requirements and accomplishments;
• comparisons to other companies in the portfolio company's industry; and • review of monthly or quarterly financial statements and financial
projections for portfolio companies.
As part of the monitoring process, our Adviser employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Adviser rates the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 5. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account the performance of the portfolio company's business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The rating system is as follows: Investment Rating Description 1 Investments rated 1 involve the least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. The borrower is performing above expectations, and the trends and risk factors for this investment since origination or acquisition are generally favorable; 2 Investments rated 2 involve an acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of origination or acquisition. The borrower is generally performing as expected and the risk factors are neutral to favorable. All investments or acquired investments in new portfolio companies are initially assessed a rating of 2; 3 Investments rated 3 involve a borrower performing below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk has increased somewhat since origination or acquisition; 4 Investments rated 4 involve a borrower performing materially below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk has increased materially since origination or acquisition. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments may be past due (but generally not more than 120 days past due); and 5 Investments rated 5 involve a borrower performing substantially below expectations and indicates that the loan's risk has increased substantially since origination or acquisition. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Loans rated 5 are not anticipated to be repaid in full and we will reduce the fair market value of the loan to the amount we anticipate will be recovered. 74
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Adviser rates the investments in our portfolio at least quarterly and it is possible that the rating of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments rated 3, 4 or 5, our Adviser enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company.

Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management's judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
Sebago Lake, aDelaware limited liability company, was formed as a joint venture between us and The Regents of theUniversity of California ("Regents") and commenced operations onJune 20, 2017 . Sebago Lake's principal purpose is to make investments, primarily in senior secured loans that are made to middle-market companies or in broadly syndicated loans. Both we and Regents (the "Members") have a 50% economic ownership inSebago Lake . Except under certain circumstances, contributions to Sebago Lake cannot be redeemed. Each of the Members initially agreed to contribute up to$100 million to Sebago Lake. OnJuly 26, 2018 , each of the Members increased their contribution to Sebago Lake up to an aggregate of$125 million . As ofMarch 31, 2020 , each Member has funded$107.8 million of their respective$125 million commitments. Sebago Lake is managed by the Members, each of which have equal voting rights. Investment decisions must be approved by each of the Members. We have determined that Sebago Lake is an investment company under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 946, however, in accordance with such guidance, we will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, we do not consolidate our non-controlling interest inSebago Lake . 75 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As ofMarch 31, 2020 andDecember 31, 2019 , Sebago Lake had total investments in senior secured debt at fair value of$555.6 million and$478.5 million , respectively. The determination of fair value is in accordance with ASC 820; however, such fair value is not included in our Board's valuation process.

Loan Origination and Structuring Fees
If the loan origination and structuring fees earned by Sebago Lake during a fiscal period exceed Sebago Lake's expenses and other obligations (excluding financing costs), such excess is allocated to the Member(s) responsible for the origination of the loans pro rata in accordance with the total loan origination and structuring fees earned by Sebago Lake with respect to the loans originated by such Member; provided, that in no event will the amount allocated to a Member exceed 1% of the par value of the loans originated by such Member in any fiscal year. The loan origination and structuring fee is accrued quarterly and included in other income from controlled, affiliated investments on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and paid annually. OnFebruary 27, 2019 , the Members agreed to amend the terms of Sebago Lake's operating agreement to eliminate the allocation of excess loan origination and structuring fees to the Members. As such, for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019, we accrued no income based on loan origination and structuring fees.

The following table represents the operating results for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ($ in millions) 2020 2019 Total Investment Income $ 204.7 $ 151.5 Less: Net operating expenses 56.4 53.8 Net Investment Income (Loss) Before Taxes $ 148.3 $ 97.7 Less: Income taxes, including excise taxes 2.0 1.7 Net Investment Income (Loss) After Taxes $ 146.3 $ 96.0 Net change in unrealized gain (loss) (459.2 ) 18.5 Net realized gain (loss) 0.3 - Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets $ (312.6 ) $ 114.5 Resulting from Operations Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations can vary from period to period as a result of various factors, including the level of new investment commitments, expenses, the recognition of realized gains and losses and changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the investment portfolio.
Investment Income
Investment income for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ($ in millions) 2020 2019
Interest income from investments $ 198.4 $
146.5 Dividend income 2.2 2.7 Other income 4.1 2.3 Total investment income $ 204.7 $ 151.5 81
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the three months ended
Investment income increased to$204.7 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 from$151.5 million for the same period in prior year primarily due to an increase in our investment portfolio, which, at par, increased from$7.0 billion as ofMarch 31, 2019 , to$9.6 billion as ofMarch 31, 2020 , partially offset by a decrease in our portfolio's weighted average yield from 9.4% as ofMarch 31, 2019 to 7.9% at amortized cost as ofMarch 31, 2020 . Included in interest income are other fees such as prepayment fees and accelerated amortization of upfront fees from unscheduled paydowns. Period over period, income generated from these fees increased, which is attributed to the increased repayment activity in the current period, to$9.8 million , from$0.4 million , for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For both the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019, payment-in-kind income represented less than 5% of interest income. Other income increased period-over-period due to an increase in incremental fee income, which are fees that are generally available to us as a result of closing investments and normally paid at the time of closing. We expect that investment income will continue to increase provided that our investment portfolio continues to increase.
Expenses
Expenses for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ($ in millions) 2020 2019 Interest expense $ 33.9 $ 34.7 Management fee 33.8 15.2 Performance based incentive fees 25.6 - Professional fees 3.2 2.1 Directors' fees 0.2 0.1 Other general and administrative 2.2 1.7 Total operating expenses $ 98.9 $ 53.8 Management and incentive fees waived (42.5 ) - Net operating expenses $ 56.4 $ 53.8 Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, we reimburse the Adviser for services performed for us. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Adviser may delegate its obligations under the Administration Agreement to an affiliate or to a third party and we reimburse the Adviser for any services performed for us by such affiliate or third party.
For the three months ended
Total expenses, after the effect of management and incentive fee waivers, increased to$56.4 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 from$53.8 million for the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in management and professional fees, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense. Management fees, net of the fee waiver increased$1.7 million period over period due to an increase in assets of$9.5 billion as ofMarch 31, 2020 as compared to assets of$7.0 billion as ofMarch 31, 2019 . As a percentage of total assets, professional fees, directors' fees and other general and administrative expenses remained relatively consistent period over period. The decrease in interest expense of$0.8 million was primarily driven by a decrease in the average interest rate from 4.7% to 4.2%, partially offset by an increase in the average daily borrowings period over period.
Income Taxes, Including Excise Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to operate in a manner so as to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute to our shareholders in each taxable year generally at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, and net tax-exempt income for that taxable year. To maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we, among other things, intend to make the requisite distributions to our shareholders, which generally relieves us from corporate-levelU.S. federal income taxes. Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we can be expected to carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year dividend distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4%U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such income, we will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income.

For the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 , the net unrealized loss was primarily driven by a decrease in the fair value of our debt investments as compared toDecember 31, 2019 . As ofMarch 31, 2020 , the fair value of our debt investments as a percentage of principal was 93.5%, as compared to 98.0% as ofDecember 31, 2019 . The primary driver of our portfolio's unrealized loss was due to current market conditions and credit spreads widening. See "COVID-19 Developments" for additional information.

Net Realized Gains (Losses)
The realized gains and losses on fully exited and partially exited portfolio companies during the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019 were comprised of the following: For the Three Months Ended March 31, ($ in millions) 2020 2019 Net realized gain (loss) on investments $ 0.4 $ - Net realized gain (loss) on foreign (0.1 ) - currency transactions Net realized gain (loss) $ 0.3 $ - 83
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Realized Gross Internal Rate of Return
Since we began investing in 2016 throughMarch 31, 2020 , our exited investments have resulted in an aggregate cash flow realized gross internal rate of return to us of over 11.5% (based on total capital invested of$2.4 billion and total proceeds from these exited investments of$2.7 billion ). Over seventy percent of these exited investments resulted in an aggregate cash flow realized gross internal rate of return ("IRR") to us of 10% or greater. IRR, is a measure of our discounted cash flows (inflows and outflows). Specifically, IRR is the discount rate at which the net present value of all cash flows is equal to zero. That is, IRR is the discount rate at which the present value of total capital invested in each of our investments is equal to the present value of all realized returns from that investment. Our IRR calculations are unaudited. Capital invested, with respect to an investment, represents the aggregate cost basis allocable to the realized or unrealized portion of the investment, net of any upfront fees paid at closing for the term loan portion of the investment. Realized returns, with respect to an investment, represents the total cash received with respect to each investment, including all amortization payments, interest, dividends, prepayment fees, upfront fees (except upfront fees paid at closing for the term loan portion of an investment), administrative fees, agent fees, amendment fees, accrued interest, and other fees and proceeds. Gross IRR, with respect to an investment, is calculated based on the dates that we invested capital and dates we received distributions, regardless of when we made distributions to our shareholders. Initial investments are assumed to occur at time zero. Gross IRR reflects historical results relating to our past performance and is not necessarily indicative of our future results. In addition, gross IRR does not reflect the effect of management fees, expenses, incentive fees or taxes borne, or to be borne, by us or our shareholders, and would be lower if it did. Aggregate cash flow realized gross IRR on our exited investments reflects only invested and realized cash amounts as described above, and does not reflect any unrealized gains or losses in our portfolio.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from cash flows from interest, dividends and fees earned from our investments and principal repayments, our credit facilities and other debt. We may also generate cash flow from operations, future borrowings and future offerings of securities including public and/or private issuances of debt and/or equity securities through both registered offerings off of our shelf registration statement and private offerings. The primary uses of our cash are (i) investments in portfolio companies and other investments and to comply with certain portfolio diversification requirements, (ii) the cost of operations (including paying or reimbursing our Adviser), (iii) debt service, repayment and other financing costs of any borrowings and (iv) cash distributions to the holders of our shares. We may from time to time enter into additional debt facilities, increase the size of our existing credit facilities or issue additional debt securities. Any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to incur borrowings, issue debt securities or issue preferred stock, if immediately after the borrowing or issuance, the ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness plus preferred stock, is at least 200% (or 150% if certain conditions are met). OnMarch 31, 2020 , our Board, including a "required majority" (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our Board, approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, as amended by the Small Business Credit Availability Act. As a result, effective onMarch 31, 2021 (unless we receive earlier shareholder approval), our asset coverage requirement applicable to senior securities will be reduced from 200% to 150%. We are seeking shareholder approval for the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, as amended by the Small Business Credit Availability Act, at our shareholder meeting to be held onJune 8, 2020 . Once the application of the modified asset coverage ratio is effective and provided we have amended our Revolving Credit Facility to allow for the reduced asset coverage, we plan to target a debt-to-equity range of 0.90x to 1.25x. As ofMarch 31, 2020 andDecember 31, 2019 , our asset coverage ratio was 246% and 293%, respectively. We seek to carefully consider our unfunded commitments for the purpose of planning our ongoing financial leverage. Further, we maintain sufficient borrowing capacity within the 200% (or 150% if certain conditions are met) asset coverage limitation to cover any outstanding unfunded commitments we are required to fund. Cash and restricted cash as ofMarch 31, 2020 , taken together with our available debt, is expected to be sufficient for our investing activities and to conduct our operations in the near term. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , we had$1.6 billion available under our credit facilities. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , we had$382.9 million in cash and restricted cash. During the year endedMarch 31, 2020 , we used$0.4 billion in cash for operating activities, primarily as a result of funding portfolio investments of$1.0 billion , partially offset by sell downs and repayments of$0.5 billion and other operating activity of$0.1 billion . Lastly, cash provided by financing activities was 84 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------$0.4 billion during the period, which was the result of net borrowings on our credit facilities of$0.6 billion , partially offset by repurchase of common stock under the Company 10b5-1 Plan of$0.1 billion and distributions paid of$0.1 billion . Equity
IPO, Subscriptions and Drawdowns
We have the authority to issue 500,000,000 common shares at
OnJuly 22, 2019 , we closed our initial public offering ("IPO"), issuing 10 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of$15.30 per share, and onAugust 2, 2019 , the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 1.5 million shares of common stock at a purchase price of$15.30 per share. Net of underwriting fees and offering costs, we received total cash proceeds of$164.0 million . Our common stock began trading on theNew York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "ORCC" onJuly 18, 2019 . OnJuly 7, 2019 , our Board of Directors determined to eliminate any outstanding fractional shares of our common stock (the "Fractional Shares"), as permitted by the Maryland General Corporation Law and onJuly 8, 2019 , we eliminated such Fractional Shares by rounding down the number of Fractional Shares held by each shareholder to the nearest whole share and paying each shareholder cash for such Fractional Shares based on a price of$15.27 per whole share.
On
Prior toMarch 2, 2018 , we entered into subscription agreements (the "Subscription Agreements") with investors providing for the private placement of our common shares. Under the terms of the Subscription Agreements, investors were required to fund drawdowns to purchase our common shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitment on an as-needed basis each time we delivered a drawdown notice to our investors. As ofJune 4, 2019 , all Capital Commitments had been drawn.

Following our IPO, without the prior written consent of our Board:
• for 180 days, a shareholder is not permitted to transfer (whether by
sale, gift, merger, by operation of law or otherwise), exchange, assign,
pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or encumber any shares of common stock held by such shareholder prior to the date of the IPO;
• for 270 days, a shareholder is not permitted to transfer (whether by
sale, gift, merger, by operation of law or otherwise), exchange, assign,
pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or encumber two-thirds of the
shares of common stock held by such shareholder prior to the date of the
IPO; and
• for 365 days, a shareholder is not permitted to transfer (whether by
sale, gift, merger, by operation of law or otherwise), exchange, assign,
pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or encumber one-third of the
shares of common stock held by such shareholder prior to the IPO.
This means that, as a result of these transfer restrictions, without the consent of our Board, a shareholder who owned 99 shares of common stock on the date of the IPO could currently only sell up to 66 of such shares and 366 days following the IPO, such shareholder could sell all of such shares.
In addition, the Adviser, our directors andMr. Lipschultz have agreed for a period of 540 days after the IPO and we and our executive officers who are not directors have agreed for a period of 180 days after the IPO, (i) not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, lend or otherwise dispose of, or file with theSEC a registration statement under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act) relating to, any shares of our common stock, or any options or warrants to purchase any shares of our common stock, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of our common stock or (ii) engage in any hedging or other transaction or arrangement (including, without limitation, any short sale or the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option, or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or instrument, however described or defined) which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition (whether by the undersigned or someone other than the undersigned), or transfer of any of 85 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the economic consequences of ownership, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, of our common stock or any such other securities whether any such transaction or arrangement (or instrument provided for thereunder) would be settled by delivery of our common stock or other securities, in cash or otherwise, without the prior written consent ofGoldman Sachs & Co. LLC andBofA Securities, Inc. on behalf of the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions; provided, however that, commencing 30 days after the IPO, the foregoing shall not prohibit a convertible notes issuance by us in an amount not to exceed$250 million .

March 31, 2019 Date Declared Record Date Payment Date Distribution per Share February 27, 2019 March 31, 2019 May 14, 2019 $ 0.33 Dividend Reinvestment We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan, pursuant to which we will reinvest all cash distributions declared by the Board on behalf of our shareholders who do not elect to receive their distribution in cash as provided below. As a result, if the Board authorizes, and we declare, a cash dividend or other distribution, then our shareholders who have not opted out of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock as described below, rather than receiving the cash dividend or other distribution. Any fractional share otherwise issuable to a participant in the dividend reinvestment plan will instead be paid in cash. Prior to our IPO, the number of shares to be issued to a shareholder under the dividend reinvestment plan was determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such shareholder by the net asset value per share of our common stock, as of the last day of our calendar quarter immediately preceding the date such distribution was declared. In connection with our IPO, we entered into our second amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan, pursuant to which, if newly issued shares are used to implement the dividend reinvestment plan, the number of shares to be issued to a shareholder will be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the cash dividend or distribution payable to a shareholder by the market price per share of our common stock at the close of regular trading on theNew York Stock Exchange on the payment date of a distribution, or if no sale is reported for such day, the average of the reported bid and ask prices. However, if the market price per share on the payment date of a cash dividend or distribution exceeds the most recently computed net asset value per share, we will issue shares at the greater of (i) the most recently computed net asset value per share and (ii) 95% of the current market price per share (or such lesser discount to the current market price per share that still exceeded the most recently computed net asset value per share). For example, if the most recently computed net asset value per share is$15.00 and the market price on the payment date of a cash dividend is$14.00 per share, we will issue shares at$14.00 per share. If the most recently computed net asset value per share is$15.00 and the market price on the payment date of a cash dividend is$16.00 per share, we will issue shares at$15.20 per share (95% of the current market price). If the most recently computed net asset value per share is$15.00 and the market price on the payment date of a cash dividend is$15.50 per 86 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- share, we will issue shares at$15.00 per share, as net asset value is greater than 95% ($14.73 per share) of the current market price. Pursuant to our second amended and restated dividend reinvestment plan, if shares are purchased in the open market to implement the dividend reinvestment plan, the number of shares to be issued to a shareholder shall be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the cash dividend payable to such shareholder by the weighted average price per share for all shares purchased by the plan administrator in the open market in connection with the dividend. Shareholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will be subject to the sameU.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.

Stock Repurchase Plan (the "Company 10b5-1 Plan")
OnJuly 7, 2019 , our Board approved the Company 10b5-1 Plan, to acquire up to$150 million in the aggregate of our common stock at prices below our net asset value per share over a specified period, in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. We put the Company 10b5-1 Plan in place because we believe that, in the current market conditions, if our common stock is trading below our then-current net asset value per share, it is in the best interest of our shareholders for us to reinvest in our portfolio. The Company 10b5-1 Plan is intended to allow us to repurchase our common stock at times when we otherwise might be prevented from doing so under insider trading laws. The Company 10b5-1 Plan requiresGoldman Sachs & Co. LLC , as our agent, to repurchase shares of common stock on our behalf when the market price per share is below the most recently reported net asset value per share (including any updates, corrections or adjustments publicly announced by us to any previously announced net asset value per share). Under the Company 10b5-1 Plan, the agent will increase the volume of purchases made as the price of our common stock declines, subject to volume restrictions. The timing and amount of any stock repurchases will depend on the terms and conditions of the Company 10b5-1 Plan, the market price of our common stock and trading volumes, and no assurance can be given that any particular amount of common stock will be repurchased. The purchase of shares pursuant to the Company 10b5-1 Plan is intended to satisfy the conditions of Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Exchange Act, and will otherwise be subject to applicable law, including Regulation M, which may prohibit purchases under certain circumstances. The Company 10b5-1 Plan commenced onAugust 19, 2019 and terminates upon the earliest to occur of (i) 18-months (tolled for periods during which the Company 10b5-1 Plan is suspended), (ii) the end of the trading day on which the aggregate purchase price for all shares purchased under the Company 10b5-1 Plan equals$150 million and (iii) the occurrence of certain other events described in the Company 10b5-1 Plan.

Unsecured Notes
2023 Notes
OnDecember 21, 2017 , we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement governing the issuance of$150 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes (the "2023 Notes") to institutional investors in a private placement. The 2023 Notes have a fixed interest rate of 4.75% and are due onJune 21, 2023 . Interest on the 2023 Notes will be due semiannually. This interest rate is subject to increase (up to a maximum interest rate of 5.50%) in the event that, subject to certain exceptions, the 2023 Notes cease to have an investment grade rating. We are obligated to offer to repay the 2023 Notes at par if certain change in control events occur. The 2023 Notes are general unsecured obligations of us that rank pari passu with all outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by us. The Note Purchase Agreement for the 2023 Notes contains customary terms and conditions for unsecured notes issued in a private placement, including, without limitation, affirmative and negative covenants such as information reporting, maintenance of our status as a BDC within the meaning of the 1940 Act and a RIC under the Code, minimum shareholders equity, minimum asset coverage ratio and prohibitions on certain fundamental changes at us or any subsidiary guarantor, as well as customary events of default with customary cure and notice, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default under other indebtedness of us or certain significant subsidiaries, certain judgments and orders, and certain events of bankruptcy. The 2023 Notes were offered in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The 2023 Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold inthe United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act as applicable. In connection with the offering of the 2023 Notes, onDecember 21, 2017 we entered into a centrally cleared interest rate swap to continue to align the interest rates of our liabilities with our investment portfolio, which consists predominately of floating rate loans. The notional amount of the interest rate swap is$150 million . We will receive fixed rate interest semi-annually at 4.75% and pay variable rate interest monthly based on 1-month LIBOR plus 2.545%. The interest rate swap matures onDecember 21, 2021 . For the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 , we made periodic payments of$1.6 million . For the three months endedMarch 31, 2019 , we made periodic payments$1.9 million . The interest expense related to the 2023 Notes is equally offset by proceeds received from the interest rate swap. The swap adjusted interest expense is included as a component of interest expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. As ofMarch 31, 2020 andDecember 31, 2019 , the interest rate swap had a fair value of$4.9 million and$1.7 million , respectively. Depending on the nature of the balance at period end, the fair value of the interest rate swap is either included as a component of accrued expenses and other liabilities or prepaid expenses and other assets on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The change in fair value of the interest rate swap is offset by the change in fair value of the 2023 Notes, with the remaining difference included as a component of interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

$ 1,541.9 $ 1,820.2 Related-Party Transactions
We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:
• the Investment Advisory Agreement; • the Administration Agreement; and • the License Agreement. In addition to the aforementioned agreements, we, our Adviser and certain of our Adviser's affiliates have been granted exemptive relief by theSEC to co-invest with other funds managed by our Adviser or its affiliates, includingOwl Rock Capital Corporation II andOwl Rock Technology Finance Corp. , in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. See "ITEM 1. - Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions" for further details. We invest together with Regents through Sebago Lake, a controlled affiliated investment as defined in the 1940 Act. See "ITEM 1. - Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions" for further details. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Our critical accounting policies should be read in connection with our risk factors as described in "ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS." Investments at Fair Value Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds received (excluding prepayment fees, if any) and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at the bid price of those market quotations. To validate market quotations, we utilize a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of the quotations. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available, as is the case for substantially all of our investments, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board, based on, among other things, the input of the Adviser, our audit committee and independent third-party valuation firm(s) engaged at the direction of the Board. 101 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As part of the valuation process, the Board takes into account relevant factors in determining the fair value of our investments, including: the estimated enterprise value of a portfolio company (i.e., the total fair value of the portfolio company's debt and equity), the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments based on its earnings and cash flow, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, a comparison of the portfolio company's securities to any similar publicly traded securities, and overall changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that may affect the price at which similar investments may be made in the future. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Board considers whether the pricing indicated by the external event corroborates its valuation.
The Board undertakes a multi-step valuation process, which includes, among other procedures, the following:
• With respect to investments for which market quotations are readily
available, those investments will typically be valued at the bid price of
those market quotations;
• With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily
available, the valuation process begins with the independent valuation
firm(s) providing a preliminary valuation of each investment to the Adviser's valuation committee;
• Preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with the
Adviser's valuation committee. Agreed upon valuation recommendations are
presented to the Audit Committee;
• The Audit Committee reviews the valuation recommendations and recommends
values for each investment to the Board; and • The Board reviews the recommended valuations and determines the fair value of each investment.
We conduct this valuation process on a quarterly basis.
We apply Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements ("ASC 820"), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance withU.S. GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820, we consider its principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below: • Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. • Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. • Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfer occurred. In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, we apply the valuation policy approved by our Board that is consistent with ASC 820. Consistent with the valuation policy, we evaluate the source of the inputs, including any markets in which our investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value. When an investment is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (that is, broker quotes), we subject those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for treatment as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. For example, we, or the independent valuation firm(s), review pricing support provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be realized. Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may be subject to contractual and other restrictions on resale. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, it could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.
In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected herein.

Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of discounts or premiums. Discounts and premiums to par value on securities purchased are amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts or premiums, if any. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income in the current period. Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management's judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies.
Distributions
We have elected to be treated for
• investment company taxable income (which is generally our ordinary income
plus the excess of realized short-term capital gains over realized net
long-term capital losses), determined without regard to the deduction for
dividends paid, for such taxable year; and • net tax-exempt interest income (which is the excess of our gross
tax-exempt interest income over certain disallowed deductions) for such taxable year. As a RIC, we (but not our shareholders) generally will not be subject toU.S. federal tax on investment company taxable income and net capital gains that we distribute to our shareholders. We intend to distribute annually all or substantially all of such income. To the extent that we retain our net capital gains or any investment company taxable income, we generally will be subject to corporate-levelU.S. federal income tax. We can be expected to carry forward our net capital gains or any investment company taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions, and pay theU.S. federal excise tax as described below. Amounts not distributed on a timely basis in accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a nondeductible 4%U.S. federal excise tax payable by us. We may be subject to a nondeductible 4%U.S. federal excise tax if we do not distribute (or are treated as distributing) during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of:
• 98% of our net ordinary income excluding certain ordinary gains or losses
for that calendar year;
• 98.2% of our capital gain net income, adjusted for certain ordinary gains
and losses, recognized for the twelve-month period ending on
of that calendar year; and
• 100% of any income or gains recognized, but not distributed, in preceding
years.
While we intend to distribute any income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize imposition of the 4%U.S. federal excise tax, sufficient amounts of our taxable income and capital gains may not be distributed and as a result, in such cases, the excise tax will be imposed. In such an event, we will be liable for this tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the foregoing distribution requirement. We intend to pay quarterly distributions to our shareholders out of assets legally available for distribution. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of our Board and will depend on our earnings, financial condition, maintenance of our tax treatment as a RIC, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant from time to time. To the extent our current taxable earnings for a year fall below the total amount of our distributions for that year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our shareholders forU.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus, the source of a distribution to our shareholders may be the original capital invested by the shareholder rather than our income or gains. Shareholders should read written disclosure carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our ordinary income or gains. We have adopted an "opt out" dividend reinvestment plan for our common shareholders. As a result, if we declare a cash dividend or other distribution, each shareholder that has not "opted out" of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their dividends or 103
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock rather than receiving cash distributions. Shareholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will be subject to the sameU.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We have also elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code beginning with the taxable year endingDecember 31, 2016 and intend to continue to qualify as a RIC. So long as we maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we generally will not pay corporate-levelU.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that we distribute at least annually to our shareholders as distributions. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by us represents obligations of our investors and will not be reflected in our consolidated financial statements. To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, we must distribute to our shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our "investment company taxable income" for that year, which is generally our ordinary income plus the excess of our realized net short-term capital gains over our realized net long-term capital losses. In order for us to not be subject toU.S. federal excise taxes, we must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of our net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses for the one-year period ending onOctober 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any net ordinary income and capital gains in excess of capital losses for preceding years that were not distributed during such years. We, at our discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% nondeductibleU.S. excise tax on this income. We evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. There were no material uncertain tax positions throughDecember 31, 2019 . The 2016 through 2018 tax years remain subject to examination byU.S. federal, state and local tax authorities. 104
