The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Some of the statements in this report constitute forward-looking statements, which relate to future events or our future performance or financial condition. The forward-looking statements contained herein involve risks and uncertainties, including statements as to: •our future operating results; •our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies; •the impact of investments that we expect to make; •our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties; •the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest; •the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives; •our expected financings and investments; •the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; •the current and future effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on us and our portfolio companies; and •the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies. We generally use words such as "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "intends" and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including any factors set forth in "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this report. We have based the forward-looking statements included in this report on information available to us on the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with theSecurities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including any annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. OverviewApollo Investment Corporation (the "Company," "Apollo Investment ," "AIC," "we," "us," or "our") was incorporated under the Maryland General Corporation Law inFebruary 2004 . We have elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). As such, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in "qualifying assets," including securities of private or thinly traded publicU.S. companies, cash equivalents,U.S. government securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. In addition, for federal income tax purposes we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Pursuant to this election and assuming we qualify as a RIC, we generally do not have to pay corporate-level federal income taxes on any income we distribute to our stockholders. We commenced operations onApril 8, 2004 upon completion of our initial public offering that raised$870 million in net proceeds from selling 62 million shares of common stock at a price of$15.00 per share (20.7 million shares at a price of$45.00 per share adjusted for the one-for-three reverse stock split). Since then, and throughMarch 31, 2020 , we have raised approximately$2.21 billion in net proceeds from additional offerings of common stock and we have repurchased common stock for$223.1 million . 58 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of ContentsApollo Investment Management, L.P. (the "Investment Adviser" or "AIM") is our investment adviser and an affiliate of Apollo Global Management, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries ("AGM"). The Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to the Company. AGM and other affiliates manage other funds that may have investment mandates that are similar, in whole or in part, with ours. AIM and its affiliates may determine that an investment is appropriate both for us and for one or more of those other funds. In such event, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, AIM may determine that we should invest on a side-by-side basis with one or more other funds. We make all such investments subject to compliance with applicable regulations and interpretations, and our allocation procedures. Certain types of negotiated co-investments may be made only in accordance with the terms of the exemptive order (the "Order") we received from theSEC permitting us to do so. Under the terms of the Order, a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors must be able to reach certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed transaction are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our Board of Directors' approved criteria. In certain situations where co-investment with one or more funds managed by AIM or its affiliates is not covered by the Order, the personnel of AIM or its affiliates will need to decide which fund will proceed with the investment. Such personnel will make these determinations based on allocation policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Order is subject to certain terms and conditions so there can be no assurance that we will be permitted to co-invest with certain of our affiliates other than in the circumstances currently permitted by regulatory guidance and the Order.Apollo Investment Administration, LLC (the "Administrator" or "AIA"), an affiliate of AGM, provides, among other things, administrative services and facilities for the Company. In addition to furnishing us with office facilities, equipment, and clerical, bookkeeping and recordkeeping services, AIA also oversees our financial records as well as prepares our reports to stockholders and reports filed with theSEC . AIA also performs the calculation and publication of our net asset value, the payment of our expenses and oversees the performance of various third-party service providers and the preparation and filing of our tax returns. Furthermore, AIA provides on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance. COVID-19 Developments InMarch 2020 , theWorld Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic, which has resulted in uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving, and as cases of COVID-19 have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries have reacted by instituting quarantines and restrictions on travel, closing financial markets and/or restricting trading, and limiting operations of non-essential businesses. Such actions are creating disruption in global supply chains, and adversely impacting many industries. While we are unable to accurately predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our results from operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures, our compliance with these measures has impacted our day-to-day operations and could disrupt our business and operations, as well as that of our portfolio companies, for an indefinite period of time. 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 would likely impair their business on a permanent basis. These developments would likely result in a decrease in the value of our investment in any such portfolio company. The COVID-19 pandemic and the related disruption and financial distress experienced by our portfolio companies may have material adverse effects on our investment income, particularly our interest income, received from our investments. In connection with the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may need to restructure our investments in some of our portfolio companies, which could result in reduced interest payments, an increase in the amount of PIK interest we receive, or result in permanent impairments on our investments. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , the fair value of our investments has been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our investment valuations are inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19 and the values assigned as of this date may materially differ from the values that may ultimately be realized. The downturn in the aviation industry from COVID-19 has resulted inMerx Aviation recording impairment losses related to aircraft leasing and impacted its financial condition. This may result in the further unrealized depreciation in value on the Company's investments in Merx. Further, any additional write downs in the value of our investments may reduce our net asset value. These events may also limit our investment origination pipeline and may increase our future funding costs. 59
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
We have had a significant reduction in our net change in unrealized losses as ofMarch 31, 2020 as compared toMarch 31, 2019 , which is primarily the result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease primarily resulted from an increase in the aggregate unrealized depreciation of our investment portfolio resulting from decreases in the fair value of some of our portfolio company investments primarily due to the immediate adverse economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing uncertainty surrounding its long-term impact, as well as the re-pricing of credit risk in the broadly syndicated credit market. We believe that the COVID-19 pandemic represents an extraordinary circumstance that materially impacts the fair value of our investments. As a result, the fair value of our portfolio investments may be negatively impacted afterMarch 31, 2020 by circumstances and events that are not yet known. We are also subject to financial risks, including changes in market interest rates. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , all of our debt portfolio investments bore interest at variable rates, which generally are LIBOR-based (or based on an equivalent applicable currency rate), and many of which are subject to certain floors. In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, theU.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks have reduced certain interest rates and LIBOR has decreased. A prolonged reduction in interest rates will reduce our gross investment income and could result in a decrease in our net investment income if such decreases in LIBOR are not offset by a corresponding increase in the spread over LIBOR that we earn on any portfolio investments, a decrease in in our operating expenses, including with respect to our income incentive fee, or a decrease in the interest rate of our floating interest rate liabilities tied to LIBOR. See "Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" for an analysis of the impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates. Investments Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation. We invest primarily in various forms of debt investments, including secured and unsecured debt, loan investments, and/or equity in private middle-market companies. We may also invest in the securities of public companies and in structured products and other investments such as collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") and credit-linked notes ("CLNs"). Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in debt, including secured and unsecured debt of private middle-market companies that, in the case of senior secured loans, generally are not broadly syndicated and whose aggregate tranche size is typically less than$250 million . Our portfolio may also include equity interests such as common stock, preferred stock, warrants or options. Our level of investment activity can and does 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, the competitive environment for the types of investments we make and, more recently, market disruptions due to COVID-19.. As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than "qualifying assets" specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). As ofMarch 31, 2020 , non-qualifying assets represented approximately 17.2% of the total assets of the Company. Revenue We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest and dividend income from the securities we hold and capital gains, if any, on investment securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. Our debt investments, whether in the form of mezzanine or senior secured loans, generally have a stated term of five to ten years and bear interest at a fixed rate or a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), the Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR"), the federal funds rate, or the prime rate. Interest on debt securities is generally payable quarterly or semiannually and whileU.S. subordinated debt and corporate notes typically accrue interest at fixed rates, some of our investments may include zero coupon and/or step-up bonds that accrue income on a constant yield to call or maturity basis. In addition, some of our investments provide for payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest or dividends. Such amounts of accrued PIK interest or dividends are added to the cost of the investment on the respective capitalization dates and generally become due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and, if applicable, consulting fees, etc. 60 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Expenses For all investment professionals of AIM and their staff, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory and management services to us, the compensation and routine overhead expenses of that personnel which is allocable to those services are provided and paid for by AIM. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, including those relating to: •investment advisory and management fees; •expenses incurred by AIM payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, in monitoring our financial and legal affairs and in monitoring our investments and performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies; •calculation of our net asset value (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firm); •direct costs and expenses of administration, including independent registered public accounting and legal costs; •costs of preparing and filing reports or other documents with theSEC ; •interest payable on debt, if any, incurred to finance our investments; •offerings of our common stock and other securities; •registration and listing fees; •fees payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments; •transfer agent and custodial fees; •taxes; •independent directors' fees and expenses; •marketing and distribution-related expenses; •the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to stockholders, including printing and postage costs; •our allocable portion of the fidelity bond, directors and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance, and any other insurance premiums; •organizational costs; and •all other expenses incurred by us or the Administrator in connection with administering our business, such as our allocable portion of overhead under the administration agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the cost of our Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and their respective staffs. We expect our general and administrative operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to increase moderately in dollar terms. During periods of asset growth, we generally expect our general and administrative operating expenses to decline as a percentage of our total assets and increase during periods of asset declines. Incentive fees, interest expense and costs relating to future offerings of securities, among others, may also increase or reduce overall operating expenses based on portfolio performance, interest rate benchmarks, and offerings of our securities relative to comparative periods, among other factors. 61 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Portfolio and Investment Activity Our portfolio and investment activity during the years endedMarch 31, 2020 andMarch 31, 2019 was as follows: Year Ended March 31, (in millions)* 2020 2019 Investments made in portfolio companies$ 1,866.3 $ 1,278.1 Investments sold (167.1) (205.2) Net activity before repaid investments 1,699.1 1,072.8 Investments repaid (1,098.5) (881.6) Net investment activity

Since the initial public offering ofApollo Investment inApril 2004 and throughMarch 31, 2020 , invested capital totaled$21.2 billion in 538 portfolio companies. Over the same period,Apollo Investment completed transactions with more than 100 different financial sponsors. Recent Developments OnJanuary 3, 2020 ,James C. Zelter , a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, tendered a letter of resignation from the Board effective immediately, which was accepted by the Board. There was no disagreement betweenMr. Zelter and the Company on any matter relating to the Company's operations, policies or practices. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the number of directors will remain ten. The Board may seek to fill the resulting vacancy.Mr. Zelter will continue to serve as Co-President of AGM. 63 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Critical Accounting Policies Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, gains and losses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, credit worthiness of portfolio companies and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes to the financial statements. Fair Value Measurements The Company follows guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), where fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are determined within a framework that establishes a three-tier hierarchy which maximizes the use of observable market data and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to establish a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, such as the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value using a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs for the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the information available. The inputs or methodology used for valuing assets or liabilities may not be an indication of the risks associated with investing in those assets or liabilities. ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date. Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The level assigned to the investment valuations may not be indicative of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in such investments. Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may differ materially from the values that would be received upon an actual disposition of such investments. As ofMarch 31, 2020 ,$2.79 billion or 100.0% of the Company's investments were classified as Level 3. The high proportion of Level 3 investments relative to our total investments is directly related to our investment philosophy and target portfolio, which consists primarily of long-term secured debt, as well as unsecured and mezzanine positions of private middle-market companies. A fundamental difference exists between our investments and those of comparable publicly traded fixed income investments, namely high-yield bonds, and this difference affects the valuation of our private investments relative to comparable publicly traded instruments. Senior secured loans, or senior loans, are higher in the capital structure than high-yield bonds, and are typically secured by assets of the borrowing company. This improves their recovery prospects in the event of default and affords senior loans a structural advantage over high-yield bonds. Many of the Company's investments are also privately negotiated and contain covenant protections that limit the issuer to take actions that could harm us as a creditor. High-yield bonds typically do not contain such covenants. Given the structural advantages of capital seniority and covenant protection, the valuation of our private debt portfolio is driven more by investment specific credit factors than movements in the broader debt capital markets. Each security is evaluated individually and as indicated below, we value our private investments based upon a multi-step valuation process, including valuation recommendations from independent valuation firms. 64 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Investment Valuation Process Under procedures established by our Board of Directors, we value investments, including certain secured debt, unsecured debt, and other debt securities with maturities greater than 60 days, for which market quotations are readily available, at such market quotations (unless they are deemed not to represent fair value). We attempt to obtain market quotations from at least two brokers or dealers (if available, otherwise from a principal market maker, primary market dealer or other independent pricing service). We utilize mid-market pricing as a practical expedient for fair value unless a different point within the range is more representative. If and when market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, we typically utilize independent third party valuation firms to assist us in determining fair value. Accordingly, such investments go through our multi-step valuation process as described below. In each case, our independent valuation firms consider observable market inputs together with significant unobservable inputs in arriving at their valuation recommendations for such investments. Investments purchased within the quarter before the valuation date and debt investments with remaining maturities of 60 days or less may each be valued at cost with interest accrued or discount accreted/premium amortized to the date of maturity (although they are typically valued at available market quotations), unless such valuation, in the judgment of our Investment Adviser, does not represent fair value. In this case, such investments shall be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors, including using market quotations where available. Investments that are not publicly traded or whose market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. Such determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and estimates. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below: 1.Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of our Investment Adviser who are responsible for the portfolio investment. 2.Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management of our Investment Adviser. 3.Independent valuation firms are engaged by our Board of Directors to conduct independent appraisals by reviewing our Investment Adviser's preliminary valuations and then making their own independent assessment. 4.The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the preliminary valuation of our Investment Adviser and the valuation prepared by the independent valuation firms and responds, if warranted, to the valuation recommendation of the independent valuation firms. 5.The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines in good faith the fair value of each investment in our portfolio based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the applicable independent valuation firm, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. 6.For Level 3 investments entered into within the current quarter, the cost (purchase price adjusted for accreted original issue discount/amortized premium) or any recent comparable trade activity on the security investment shall be considered to reasonably approximate the fair value of the investment, provided that no material change has since occurred in the issuer's business, significant inputs or the relevant environment. 65 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Investments determined by these valuation procedures which have a fair value of less than$1 million during the prior fiscal quarter may be valued based on inputs identified by the Investment Adviser without the necessity of obtaining valuation from an independent valuation firm, if once annually an independent valuation firm using the procedures described herein provides a valuation. Investments in all asset classes are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, seniority of investment in the investee company's capital structure, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, our principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values, among other factors. When readily available, broker quotations and/or quotations provided by pricing services are considered in the valuation process of independent valuation firms. During the year endedMarch 31, 2020 , there were no significant changes to the Company's valuation techniques and related inputs considered in the valuation process. Investment Income Recognition The Company records interest and dividend income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis. Some of our loans and other investments, including certain preferred equity investments, may have contractual PIK interest or dividends. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. Certain PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Company capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. The Company does not reverse previously capitalized PIK interest or dividends. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on non-accrual status are restored to accrual status if the Company believes that PIK is expected to be realized. Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest and/or dividends in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest/dividend cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest/dividend cash payments will be collected. Such non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest or dividends are paid in cash, and in management's judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining interest or dividend obligations. Interest or dividend cash payments received on non-accrual designated investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. Loan origination fees, original issue discount ("OID"), and market discounts are capitalized and accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans using the effective interest method or straight-line, as applicable. Upon the prepayment of a loan, prepayment premiums, any unamortized loan origination fees, OID, or market discounts are recorded as interest income. Other income generally includes amendment fees, administrative fees, management fees, bridge fees, and structuring fees which are recorded when earned. The Company records as dividend income the accretable yield from its beneficial interests in structured products such as CLOs based upon a number of cash flow assumptions that are subject to uncertainties and contingencies. Such assumptions include the rate and timing of principal and interest receipts (which may be subject to prepayments and defaults) of the underlying pools of assets. These assumptions are updated on at least a quarterly basis to reflect changes related to a particular security, actual historical data, and market changes. A structured product investment typically has an underlying pool of assets. Payments on structured product investments are payable solely from the cash flows from such assets. As such, any unforeseen event in these underlying pools of assets might impact the expected recovery and future accrual of income. 66 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Expenses Expenses include management fees, performance-based incentive fees, insurance expenses, administrative service fees, legal fees, directors' fees, audit and tax service expenses, third-party valuation fees and other general and administrative expenses. Expenses are recognized on an accrual basis. Net Realized Gains (Losses) and Net Change in Unrealized Gains (Losses) We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, but considering unamortized upfront fees and prepayment penalties. Net change in unrealized gain (loss) reflects the net change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses. Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Total Investment Income For the year endedMarch 31, 2020 as compared to the year endedMarch 31, 2019 The increase in total investment income of$21.8 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 compared to the year endedMarch 31, 2019 was primarily driven by the increase in total interest income (including PIK) of$28.9 million . The increase in total interest income (including PIK) was due to an increase in the income-bearing investment portfolio. This was partially offset by a decrease in average yield for the total debt portfolio to 9.4% from 10.4%. Furthermore, there was a increase in prepayment fees and income recognized from the acceleration of discount, premium, or deferred fees on repaid investments which totaled$9.2 million and$8.4 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 and year endedMarch 31, 2019 , respectively. The decrease in dividend income of$6.5 million was due to a decrease in dividends fromMerx Aviation Finance, LLC , which totaled$2.5 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 compared to$9.4 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2019 . Furthermore, there was a decrease in other income of$0.5 million primarily due to lower bridge fees. Net Expenses For the year endedMarch 31, 2020 as compared to the year endedMarch 31, 2019 The increase in net expenses of$4.3 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 compared to the year endedMarch 31, 2019 was primarily due to the increase in interest and other debt expenses. The increase of interest and other debt expenses of$15.2 million was due to the change in the average debt outstanding and net leverage from$0.99 billion and 0.83x, respectively during the year endedMarch 31, 2019 , to$1.53 billion and 1.71x, respectively during the year endedMarch 31, 2020 . This was partially offset by the decrease in the weighted average interest cost from 5.31% for the year endedMarch 31, 2019 to 4.42% for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 . The increase in net expenses was partially offset by a decrease in management and performance-based incentive fees (net of amounts waived) of$9.0 million which was due to lower performance based incentive fee expenses (net of amounts waived) of$1.9 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 from$15.6 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2019 . Performance based incentive fees for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 were lower as a total return based fee became effectiveJanuary 1, 2019 . Furthermore, the decrease of$1.4 million in other general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a decrease in legal fees from$5.2 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2019 to$3.5 million for the year endedMarch 31, 2020 . Net Realized Gains (Losses) During the year endedMarch 31, 2020 , we recognized gross realized gains of$18.2 million and gross realized losses of$24.5 million , resulting in net realized losses of$6.3 million .

The net change is primarily due to the immediate adverse economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the continuing uncertainty surrounding its long-term impact, as well as the re-pricing of credit risk in the broadly syndicated credit market and was not the result of changes to expectations regarding the collectability of principal amounts outstanding.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's liquidity and capital resources are generated and generally available through periodic follow-on equity and debt offerings, our Senior Secured Facility (as defined in Note 8 to the financial statements), our senior secured notes, our senior unsecured notes, investments in special purpose entities in which we hold and finance particular investments on a non-recourse basis, as well as from cash flows from operations, investment sales of liquid assets and repayments of senior and subordinated loans and income earned from investments. For liquidity and capital resources information for the year endedMarch 31, 2018 , see the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year endedMarch 31, 2019 . We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents on hand, our short-term investments, proceeds from the sale of our 2025 Notes, our available borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Facility and our anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet our cash needs for our daily operations for at least the next twelve months. This "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section should be read in conjunction with "Our Response to COVID-19" above. The Company defines cash equivalents as securities that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only securities with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase would qualify, with limited exceptions. The Company deems that certain money market funds,U.S. Treasury bills, repurchase agreements and other high-quality, short-term debt securities would qualify as cash equivalents (See Note 2 to the financial statements.) At the end of each fiscal quarter, we consider taking proactive steps utilizing cash equivalents with the objective of enhancing our investment flexibility during the following quarter, pursuant to Section 55 of the 1940 Act. More specifically, we may purchaseU.S. Treasury bills from time-to-time on the last business day of the quarter and typically close out that position on the following business day, settling the sale transaction on a net cash basis with the purchase, subsequent to quarter end.Apollo Investment may also utilize repurchase agreements or other balance sheet transactions, including drawing down on our Senior Secured Facility, as we deem appropriate. The amount of these transactions or such drawn cash for this purpose is excluded from total assets for purposes of computing the asset base upon which the management fee is determined. Debt See Note 8 to the financial statements for information on the Company's debt. The following table shows the contractual maturities of our debt obligations as ofMarch 31, 2020 : Payments Due by Period (in millions) Total Less than 1 Year 1 to 3 Years 3 to 5 Years More than 5 Years

As ofMarch 31, 2020 , there were$6.2 million of letters of credit issued under the Senior Secured Facility as shown as part of total commitments in Note 10 to the financial statements. Stockholders' Equity See Note 9 to the financial statements for information on the Company's public offerings and share repurchase plans. Distributions Distributions paid to stockholders during the years endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019 totaled$121.8 million ($1.80 per share) and$128.0 million ($1.80 per share), respectively. For income tax purposes, distributions made to stockholders are reported as ordinary income, capital gains, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. Although the tax character of distributions paid to stockholders throughMarch 31, 2020 may include return of capital, the exact amount cannot be determined at this point. The final determination of the tax character of distributions will not be made until we file our tax return for the tax year endedMarch 31, 2020 . Tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end of the calendar year. Our quarterly distributions, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors. 71 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents To maintain our RIC status, we must distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, at least annually, out of the assets legally available for distribution. Although we currently intend to distribute realized net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually, out of the assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment. Currently, we have substantial net capital loss carryforwards and consequently do not expect to generate cumulative net capital gains in the foreseeable future. We maintain an "opt out" dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, if we declare a dividend, then stockholders' cash dividends will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, unless they specifically "opt out" of the dividend reinvestment plan so as to receive cash dividends. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC, we may in the future be limited in our ability to make distributions. Also, our revolving credit facility may limit our ability to declare dividends if we default under certain provisions or fail to satisfy certain other conditions. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we may suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of the tax benefits available to us as a RIC. In addition, in accordance with GAAP and tax regulations, we include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as contractual PIK, which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance that becomes due at the end of the loan term, or the accrual of original issue or market discount. Since we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may not be able to meet the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income to obtain tax benefits as a RIC. With respect to the distributions to stockholders, income from origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees associated with investments in portfolio companies is treated as taxable income and accordingly, distributed to stockholders. PIK Income For the years endedMarch 31, 2020 and 2019, PIK income totaled$10.9 million and$8.6 million on total investment income of$276.9 million and$255.1 million , respectively. In order to maintain the Company's status as a RIC, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders annually in the form of distributions, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash. See Note 5 to the financial statements for more information on the Company's PIK income. Related Party Transactions See Note 3 to the financial statements for information on the Company's related party transactions. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. During the year endedMarch 31, 2020 , many of the loans in our portfolio had floating interest rates. These loans are usually based on LIBOR and typically have durations of one to six months after which they reset to current market interest rates. The Company also has a Senior Secured Facility that is based on LIBOR rates. The following table shows the estimated annual impact on net investment income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate flows for variable rate instruments) to our loan portfolio and outstanding debt as ofMarch 31, 2020 , assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure: Basis Point Change Net Investment Income Net Investment Income Per Share Up 200 basis points$ 12.4 million $ 0.190 Up 100 basis points 6.0 million 0.092 Down 100 basis points 2.7 million 0.042 Down 200 basis points 1.9 million 0.030 We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations from time-to-time by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. 72 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Item 8.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as ofMarch 31, 2020 . Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as ofMarch 31, 2020 based upon criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by theCommittee of Sponsoring Organizations of theTreadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on our assessment, management determined that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as ofMarch 31, 2020 based on the criteria on Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by COSO. The effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as ofMarch 31, 2020 has been audited byPricewaterhouseCoopers LLP , an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein. 74

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, ofApollo Investment Corporation (the "Company") as ofMarch 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for each of the three years in the period endedMarch 31, 2020 , including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as ofMarch 31, 2020 , based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by theCommittee of Sponsoring Organizations of theTreadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as ofMarch 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations, changes in its net assets and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period endedMarch 31, 2020 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States of America . Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as ofMarch 31, 2020 , based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO. Basis for Opinions The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company's financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with thePublic Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States ) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with theU.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of theSecurities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as ofMarch 31, 2020 and 2019 by correspondence with the custodian, administrative agents and portfolio companies. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 75 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Valuation of
As described in Notes 2 and 5 to the financial statements, level 3 investments represent 100% of the$2,785 million of investments held as ofMarch 31, 2020 . Management values its level 3 investments through a multi-step valuation process. As a part of that multi-step valuation process, the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors review the valuation models and assumptions prepared by the investment professionals of the Company's investment advisor and valuations prepared by independent third-party valuation firms. The Company's level 3 investments are valued using market quotations when readily available, if and when market quotations are unavailable or deemed not representative of fair value, the level 3 investments are valued using a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as determined to be appropriate by management. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) discounted to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that management may take into account in fair value pricing investments include observable market inputs together with significant unobservable inputs, including as relevant comparable company multiples, discount rates, commodity prices, expected volatility, recoverable amounts, liquidation, and recent transactions. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of level 3 investments is a critical audit matter are there was significant judgment by management to determine the fair value of these level 3 investments, which included significant unobservable inputs related to comparable company multiples and discount rates. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing audit procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained related to the comparable company multiples and discount rates. In addition, the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in performing these procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the valuation of Level 3 investments, including controls over the Company's methods, data, and significant unobservable inputs. These procedures also included, among others, testing the completeness, accuracy, reliability, and relevance of key data used in the models and the involvement of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in either (i) testing management's process, which entails evaluating the appropriateness of the methodology applied by management and the reasonableness of significant unobservable inputs used in the methodology, specifically comparable company multiples and discount rates for certain investments, as applicable; or (ii) developing an independent fair value range for the investments, and comparison of the fair value range to the fair value estimates prepared by management for certain investments.

As such, these securities are not available as collateral to our general creditors. (8)The negative fair value is the result of the commitment being valued below par. (9)These are co-investments made with the Company's affiliates in accordance with the terms of the exemptive order the Company received from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") permitting us to do so. (See Note 3 to the financial statements for discussion of the exemptive order from theSEC .) (10)Other than the investments noted by this footnote, the fair value of the Company's investments is determined using unobservable inputs that are significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Under the 1940 Act, we may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of our total assets. The status of these assets under the 1940 Act is subject to change. The Company monitors the status of these assets on an ongoing basis. As of March 31, 2019, non-qualifying assets represented approximately 16.25% of the total assets of the Company. (18)In addition to the interest earned based on the stated rate of this loan, the Company may be entitled to receive additional interest as a result of its arrangement with other lenders in a syndication. (19)This investment represents a leveraged subordinated interest in a trust that holds one foreign currency denominated bond and a derivative instrument. (20)Generally, the interest rate on floating interest rate investments is at benchmark rate plus spread. The borrower has an option to choose the benchmark rate, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), the Euro Interbank Offered Rate ("EURIBOR"), the federal funds rate or the prime rate. The spread may change based on the type of rate used. The terms in the Schedule of Investments disclose the actual interest rate in effect as of the reporting period.

Table of ContentsAPOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In thousands, except share and per share data) Note 1. OrganizationApollo Investment Corporation (the "Company," "Apollo Investment ," "AIC," "we," "us," or "our"), aMaryland corporation incorporated on February 2, 2004, is a closed-end, externally managed, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). In addition, for tax purposes we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). We commenced operations on April 8, 2004 receiving net proceeds of $870,000 from our initial public offering by selling 62 million shares of common stock at a price of $15.00 per share (20.7 million shares at a price of $45.00 per share adjusted for the one-for-three reverse stock split). Since then, and through March 31, 2020, we have raised approximately $2,210,067 in net proceeds from additional offerings of common stock and repurchased common stock for $223,072. Apollo Investment Management, L.P. (the "Investment Adviser" or "AIM") is our investment adviser and an affiliate of Apollo Global Management, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries ("AGM"). The Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of and provides investment advisory services to the Company. Apollo Investment Administration, LLC (the "Administrator" or "AIA"), an affiliate of AGM, provides, among other things, administrative services and facilities for the Company. Furthermore, AIA provides on our behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which we are required to provide such assistance. Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation. We invest primarily in various forms of debt investments, including secured and unsecured debt, loan investments, and/or equity in private middle-market companies. We may also invest in the securities of public companies and in structured products and other investments such as collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs") and credit-linked notes ("CLNs"). Our portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in debt, including secured and unsecured debt of private middle-market companies that, in the case of senior secured loans, generally are not broadly syndicated and whose aggregate tranche size is typically less than $250 million. Our portfolio may include equity interests such as common stock, preferred stock, warrants and/or options. Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statements. Basis of Presentation The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted inthe United States of America ("GAAP") pursuant to the requirements on Form 10-K, ASC 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies ("ASC 946"), and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements for the periods presented, have been included. Under the 1940 Act, ASC 946, and the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services to benefit us. Consequently, as of March 31, 2020, the Company consolidated some special purposes entities. These special purposes entities only hold investments of the Company and have no other significant asset and liabilities. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income, expenses, gains and losses during the reported periods. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, credit worthiness of our portfolio companies, and the global outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) during the first quarter of 2020, and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. 134
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) TheWorld Health Organization has designated COVID-19 as a pandemic, and numerous countries, includingthe United States , have declared national emergencies with respect to COVID-19. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving, and as cases of COVID-19 have continued to be identified in additional countries, many countries have reacted by instituting quarantines and restrictions on travel, closing financial markets and/or restricting trading, and limiting operations of non-essential businesses. Such actions are creating disruption in global supply chains, and adversely impacting many industries. The outbreak could have a continued adverse impact on economic and market conditions and trigger a period of global economic slowdown. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying our financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of March 31, 2020. However uncertainty over the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the global economy generally, and the Company's business in particular, makes any estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2020 inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company defines cash equivalents as securities that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and near maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only securities with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase would qualify, with limited exceptions. The Company deems that certain money market funds,U.S. Treasury bills, repurchase agreements, and other high-quality, short-term debt securities would qualify as cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents held as of March 31, 2020 was $37,301. Cash equivalents held as of March 31, 2019 was $36,280. Collateral on Option Contracts Collateral on option contracts represents restricted cash held by our counterparty as collateral against our derivative instruments until such contracts mature or are settled upon per agreement of buyer and seller of the contract. In accordance with Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash, the Statements of Cash Flows outline the changes in cash, including both restricted and unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and foreign currencies. Investment Transactions Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains and losses related to that instrument. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. Amounts for investments recognized or derecognized but not yet settled are reported as a receivable for investments sold and a payable for investments purchased, respectively, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Fair Value Measurements The Company follows guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), where fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are determined within a framework that establishes a three-tier hierarchy which maximizes the use of observable market data and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to establish a classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, such as the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value using a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs for the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the information available. The inputs or methodology used for valuing assets or liabilities may not be an indication of the risks associated with investing in those assets or liabilities. 135
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date. Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices. Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. The level assigned to the investment valuations may not be indicative of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in such investments. Because of the inherent uncertainties of valuation, the values reflected in the financial statements may differ materially from the values that would be received upon an actual disposition of such investments. Investment Valuation Process Under procedures established by our Board of Directors, we value investments, including certain secured debt, unsecured debt and other debt securities with maturities greater than 60 days, for which market quotations are readily available, at such market quotations (unless they are deemed not to represent fair value). We attempt to obtain market quotations from at least two brokers or dealers (if available, otherwise from a principal market maker, primary market dealer or other independent pricing service). We utilize mid-market pricing as a practical expedient for fair value unless a different point within the range is more representative. If and when market quotations are unavailable or are deemed not to represent fair value, we typically utilize independent third party valuation firms to assist us in determining fair value. Accordingly, such investments go through our multi-step valuation process as described below. In each case, our independent third party valuation firms consider observable market inputs together with significant unobservable inputs in arriving at their valuation recommendations for such investments. Investments purchased within the quarter before the valuation date and debt investments with remaining maturities of 60 days or less may each be valued at cost with interest accrued or discount accreted/premium amortized to the date of maturity (although they are typically valued at available market quotations), unless such valuation, in the judgment of our Investment Adviser, does not represent fair value. In this case such investments shall be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors including using market quotations where available. Investments that are not publicly traded or whose market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. Such determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and estimates. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below: 1.Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of our Investment Adviser who are responsible for the portfolio investment. 2.Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management of our Investment Adviser. 3.Independent valuation firms are engaged by our Board of Directors to conduct independent appraisals by reviewing our Investment Adviser's preliminary valuations and then making their own independent assessment. 4.The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews the preliminary valuation of our Investment Adviser and the valuation prepared by the independent valuation firms and responds, if warranted, to the valuation recommendation of the independent valuation firms. 5.The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines in good faith the fair value of each investment in our portfolio based on the input of our Investment Adviser, the applicable independent valuation firm, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. 136

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) 6.For Level 3 investments entered into within the current quarter, the cost (purchase price adjusted for accreted original issue discount/amortized premium) or any recent comparable trade activity on the security investment shall be considered to reasonably approximate the fair value of the investment, provided that no material change has since occurred in the issuer's business, significant inputs or the relevant environment. Investments determined by these valuation procedures which have a fair value of less than $1 million during the prior fiscal quarter may be valued based on inputs identified by the Investment Adviser without the necessity of obtaining valuation from an independent valuation firm, if once annually an independent valuation firm using the procedures described herein provides an independent assessment of value. Investments in all asset classes are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in fair value pricing our investments include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, seniority of investment in the investee company's capital structure, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, M&A comparables, our principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values, among other factors. When readily available, broker quotations and/or quotations provided by pricing services are considered as an input in the valuation process. During the year ended March 31, 2020, there were no significant changes to the Company's valuation techniques and related inputs considered in the valuation process. Derivative Instruments The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities at fair value in its financial statements. Derivative contracts entered into by the Company are not designated as hedging instruments, and as a result the Company presents changes in fair value and realized gains or losses through current period earnings. Derivative instruments are measured in terms of the notional contract amount and derive their value based upon one or more underlying instruments. Derivative instruments are subject to various risks similar to non-derivative instruments including market, credit, liquidity, and operational risks. The Company manages these risks on an aggregate basis as part of its risk management process. The derivatives may require the Company to pay or receive an upfront fee or premium. These upfront fees or premiums are carried forward as cost or proceeds to the derivatives. Exchange-traded derivatives which include put and call options are valued based on the last reported sales price on the date of valuation. Over-the-counter ("OTC") derivatives, including credit default swaps, are valued by the Investment Adviser using quotations from counterparties. In instances where models are used, the value of the OTC derivative is derived from the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument as well as the availability and reliability of observable inputs, such as credit spreads. Offsetting Assets and Liabilities The Company has elected not to offset cash collateral against the fair value of derivative contracts. The fair values of these derivatives are presented on a gross basis, even when derivatives are subject to master netting agreements. The Company's disclosures regarding offsetting are discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements.
Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, permits an entity to choose, at specified election dates, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value (the "Fair Value Option"). We have not elected the Fair Value Option to report selected financial assets and financial liabilities. Debt issued by the Company is reported at amortized cost (see Note 8 to the financial statements). The carrying value of all other financial assets and liabilities approximates fair value due to their short maturities or their close proximity of the originations to the measurement date. 137

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Realized Gains or Losses Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are calculated by using the specific identification method. Securities that have been called by the issuer are recorded at the call price on the call effective date. Investment Income Recognition The Company records interest and dividend income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis. Some of our loans and other investments, including certain preferred equity investments, may have contractual payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest or dividends. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, the Company capitalizes the accrued interest or dividends receivable (reflecting such amounts as the basis in the additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point the Company believes PIK is not fully expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. The Company does not reverse previously capitalized PIK interest or dividends. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on non-accrual status are restored to accrual status if the Company believes that PIK is expected to be realized. Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest and/or dividends in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest/dividend cash payments are past due 30 days or more and/or when it is no longer probable that principal or interest/dividend cash payments will be collected. Such non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest or dividends are paid in cash, and in management's judgment, are likely to continue timely payment of their remaining interest or dividend obligations. Interest or dividend cash payments received on non-accrual designated investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. Loan origination fees, original issue discount ("OID"), and market discounts are capitalized and accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans using the effective interest method or straight-line, as applicable. Upon the prepayment of a loan, prepayment premiums, any unamortized loan origination fees, OID, or market discounts are recorded as interest income. Other income generally includes amendment fees, bridge fees, and structuring fees which are recorded when earned. The Company records as dividend income the accretable yield from its beneficial interests in structured products such as CLOs based upon a number of cash flow assumptions that are subject to uncertainties and contingencies. Such assumptions include the rate and timing of principal and interest receipts (which may be subject to prepayments and defaults) of the underlying pool of assets. These assumptions are updated on at least a quarterly basis to reflect changes related to a particular security, actual historical data, and market changes. A structured product investment typically has an underlying pool of assets. Payments on structured product investments are and will be payable solely from the cash flows from such assets. As such, any unforeseen event in these underlying pools of assets might impact the expected recovery of principal and future accrual of income. Expenses Expenses include management fees, performance-based incentive fees, insurance expenses, administrative service fees, legal fees, directors' fees, audit and tax service expenses, third-party valuation fees and other general and administrative expenses. Expenses are recognized on an accrual basis. Financing Costs The Company records expenses related to shelf filings and applicable offering costs as deferred financing costs in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. To the extent such expenses relate to equity offerings, these expenses are charged as a reduction of capital upon utilization, in accordance with ASC 946-20-25, or charged to expense if no offering is completed. 138

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) The Company records origination and other expenses related to its debt obligations as deferred financing costs. The deferred financing cost for all outstanding debt is presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, except that incurred under the Senior Secured Facility (as defined in Note 8 to the financial statements), which the Company presents as an asset on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method over the stated life of the obligation which approximates the effective yield method. In the event that we modify or extinguish our debt before maturity, the Company follows the guidance in ASC 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments ("ASC 470-50"). For modifications to or exchanges of our Senior Secured Facility (as defined in Note 8 to the financial statements), any unamortized deferred financing costs relating to lenders who are not part of the new lending group are expensed. For extinguishments of our senior secured notes and senior unsecured notes, any unamortized deferred financing costs are deducted from the carrying amount of the debt in determining the gain or loss from the extinguishment. Foreign Currency Translations The accounting records of the Company are maintained inU.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated intoU.S. dollars based on the foreign exchange rate on the date of valuation. The Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The Company's investments in foreign securities may involve certain risks, including without limitation: foreign exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic risks, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the investment. In addition, changes in the relationship of foreign currencies to theU.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of these investments and therefore the earnings of the Company. Dividends and Distributions Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded as of the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Board of Directors each quarter. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed or deemed distributed at least annually. 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. Share Repurchases In connection with the Company's share repurchase program, the cost of shares repurchased is charged to net assets on the trade date. Federal and State Income Taxes We have elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code and operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must (among other requirements) meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income as defined by the Code, for each year. The Company (among other requirements) has made and intends to continue to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company from corporate-level income taxes. For income tax purposes, distributions made to stockholders are reported as ordinary income, capital gains, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. The tax character of distributions paid to stockholders through March 31, 2020 may include return of capital, however, the exact amount cannot be determined at this point. The final determination of the tax character of distributions will not be made until we file our tax return for the tax year ending March 31, 2020. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividend and distributions and other permanent book and tax difference are reclassified to paid-in capital. If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains exceed the distributions from such taxable income for the year. 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 taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated undistributed taxable income. 139

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) If we fail to satisfy the annual distribution requirement or otherwise fail to qualify as a RIC in any taxable year, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate rates. Distribution would generally be taxable to our individual and other non-corporate taxable stockholders as ordinary dividend income eligible for the reduced maximum rate applicable to qualified dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits provided certain holding period and other requirements are met. Subject to certain limitation under the Code, corporate distributions would be eligible for the dividend-received deduction. To qualify again to be taxed as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our stockholders our accumulated earnings and profits attributable to non-RIC years. In addition, if we failed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of five years. We follow ASC 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Penalties or interest, if applicable, that may be assessed relating to income taxes would be classified as other operating expenses in the financial statements. As of March 31, 2020, there were no uncertain tax positions and no amounts accrued for interest or penalties. Management's determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. Although we file both federal and state income tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. Our tax returns for each of our federal tax years since 2017 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Retroactive Adjustments for Common Stock Reverse Split The Company's Board of Directors approved a one-for-three reverse stock split of the Company's common stock on October 30, 2018 which was effective as of close of business November 2018 (the "Reverse Stock Split"). All common share and common per share amounts in the financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented to give effect to this reverse stock split as disclosed in Note 9. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance which changes the fair value disclosure requirements. The new guidance includes new, eliminated and modified fair value disclosures. Among other requirements, the guidance requires disclosure of the range and weighted average of the significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and the way it is calculated. The guidance also eliminated the following disclosures: (i) amount and reason for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, (ii) policy for timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and (iii) valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurement. The guidance is effective for all entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has evaluated the impact of this guidance and determined that there is no material effect on the Company's financial statements. In April 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-04, "Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments." This guidance amends how credit losses are recorded for financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value, including trade and interest receivables. The ASU allows for the guidance to be adopted through an accounting policy election effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company has evaluated the impact of this guidance and determined that there is no material effect on the Company's financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships and other transactions, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of the reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company's financial statements. 140

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) SEC Disclosure Update and Simplification In August 2018, theU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification which amends certain disclosure requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. The amendments are intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance. The final rule is effective for all filings on or after November 5, 2018. The Company has evaluated the impact of the amendments and determined the effect of the adoption of the simplification rules on financial statements were limited to the modification and removal of certain disclosures. Note 3. Related Party Agreements and Transactions Investment Advisory Agreement with AIM The Company has an investment advisory management agreement with the Investment Adviser (the "Investment Advisory Agreement") under which AIM receives a fee from the Company, consisting of two components - a base management fee and a performance-based incentive fee. Base Management Fee Effective April 1, 2018, the base management fee is calculated initially at an annual rate of 1.50% (0.375% per quarter) of the lesser of (i) the average of the value of the Company's gross assets, net of average of any payable for investments (excluding cash or cash equivalents but including other assets purchased with borrowed amounts) at the end of each of the two most recently completed calendar quarters and (ii) the average monthly value (measured as of the last day of each month) of the Company's gross assets (excluding cash or cash equivalents but including other assets purchased with borrowed amounts) during the most recently completed calendar quarter; provided, however, in each case, the base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% (0.250% per quarter) of the average of the value of the Company's gross assets (excluding cash or cash equivalents but including other assets purchased with borrowed amounts) that exceeds the product of (A) 200% and (B) the value of the Company's net asset value at the end of the prior calendar quarter. The base management fee will be payable quarterly in arrears. The value of the Company's gross assets shall be calculated in accordance with the Company's valuation policies. For the period from April 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018, the base management fee was calculated at an annual rate of 2% (0.50% per quarter) of the average of the value of the Company's gross assets (excluding cash or cash equivalents but including other assets purchased with borrowed amounts) at the end of each of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. For the same period, the Investment Adviser agreed to waive 25% of its base management fee so the base management fee was reduced from 2% to 1.50%. Performance-based Incentive Fee The incentive fee (the "Incentive Fee") consists of two components that are determined independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. A portion of the Incentive Fee is based on income and a portion is based on capital gains, each as described below: 141
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) A. Incentive Fee based on Income (i) Incentive Fee on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income - (April 1, 2017 - December 31, 2018) The first part of the incentive fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter at an annual rate of 20%. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including, without limitation, any accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash and any other fees such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company's operating expenses accrued during the calender quarter (including, without limitation, the Base Management Fee, administration expenses and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee on Income and the Incentive Fee on Capital Gains). Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized or unrealized gains or losses. Pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to the rate of 1.75% per quarter (7% annualized) (the "performance threshold"). For the period from April, 2017 through December 31, 2018, if the resulting incentive fee rate was less than 20% due to the incentive fee waiver discussed below, the percentage at which the Investment Adviser's 100% catch-up is complete would also be reduced ratably from 2.1875% (8.75% annualized) to as low as 2.06% (8.24% annualized) ("catch-up threshold"). The Company pays the Investment Adviser an incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows: (1) no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the performance threshold; and (2) 100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.75% but does not exceed the catch-up threshold in any calendar quarter; and (3) for the period from April 1, 2017 through December 31, 2018, 15% to 20% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the catch-up threshold in any calendar quarter. These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months. The effect of the fee calculation described above is that if pre-incentive fee net investment income is equal to or exceeds the catch-up threshold, the Investment Adviser will receive a fee of 15% to 20% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the quarter. Incentive Fee Waiver For the period from April 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018, the Investment Adviser has agreed to waive 25% of its performance based incentive fee so that the incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income is accrued at 15%. For the period April 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018, the Investment Adviser has agreed to waive up to 25% of its performance-based incentive fee so that the incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income could be accrued at as low a rate as 15% to the extent the Company experienced cumulative net realized and change in unrealized losses during the waiver period ("cumulative net losses"). The inclusion of cumulative net gains and cumulative net losses were measured on a cumulative basis from April 1, 2017 through the end of each quarter during the waiver period. Any cumulative net gains resulted in a dollar for dollar increase in the incentive fee payable up to a maximum rate of 20% and any cumulative net losses resulted in a dollar for dollar decrease in the incentive fee payable down to a minimum rate of 15%. (ii) Incentive Fee on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Income - effective from January 1, 2019 Beginning January 1, 2019, the incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income will be determined and paid quarterly in arrears by calculating the amount by which (x) the aggregate amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect of the current calendar quarter and each of the eleven preceding calendar quarters beginning with the calendar quarter that commences on or after April 1, 2018 (the "trailing twelve quarters") exceeds (y) the preferred return amount in respect of the trailing twelve quarters. The preferred return amount will be determined on a quarterly basis, and will be calculated by summing the amounts obtained by multiplying 1.75% by the Company's net asset value at the beginning of each applicable calendar quarter comprising the relevant trailing twelve quarters. The preferred return amount will be calculated after making appropriate adjustments to the Company's net asset value at the beginning of each applicable calendar quarter for Company capital issuances and distributions during the applicable calendar quarter. 142
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) The amount of the Incentive Fee on Income that will be paid to the Investment Adviser for a particular quarter will equal the excess of the incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, so calculated less the aggregate incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income that were paid to the Investment Adviser (excluding waivers, if any) in the preceding eleven calendar quarters comprising the relevant trailing twelve quarters. The Company will pay the Investment Adviser an incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows: (1) no incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the trailing twelve quarters does not exceed the preferred return amount. (2) 100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the trailing twelve quarters, if any, that exceeds the preferred return amount but is less than or equal to an amount (the "catch-up amount") determined by multiplying 2.1875% by the Company's net asset value at the beginning of each applicable calendar quarter comprising the relevant trailing twelve quarters. (3) for any quarter in which the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income for the trailing twelve quarters exceeds the catch-up amount, the incentive fee shall equal 20% of the amount of the Company's pre-incentive fee net investment income for such trailing twelve quarters. The Incentive Fee on Income as calculated is subject to a cap (the "IncentiveFee Cap "). The IncentiveFee Cap in any quarter is an amount equal to (a) 20% of the Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return (as defined below) during the relevant trailing twelve quarters less (b) the aggregate Incentive Fees on Income that were paid to the Investment Adviser (excluding waivers, if any) in the preceding eleven calendar quarters (or portion thereof) comprising the relevant trailing twelve quarters. For this purpose, "Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return" during the relevant trailing twelve quarters means (x) Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income in respect of the trailing twelve quarters less (y) any Net Capital Loss, since April 1, 2018, in respect of the trailing twelve quarters. If, in any quarter, the IncentiveFee Cap is zero or a negative value, the Company shall pay no Incentive Fee on Income to the Investment Adviser in that quarter. If, in any quarter, the IncentiveFee Cap is a positive value but is less than the Incentive Fee on Income calculated in accordance with the calculation described above, the Company shall pay the Investment Adviser the IncentiveFee Cap for such quarter. If, in any quarter, the IncentiveFee Cap is equal to or greater than the Incentive Fee on Income calculated in accordance with the calculation described above, the Company shall pay the Investment Adviser the Incentive Fee on Income for such quarter. "Net Capital Loss" in respect of a particular period means the difference, if positive, between (i) aggregate capital losses, whether realized or unrealized, in such period and (ii) aggregate capital gains, whether realized or unrealized, in such period. B. Incentive Fee Based on Cumulative Net Realized Gains The Incentive Fee on Capital Gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the investment advisory management agreement). This fee shall equal 20.0% of the sum of the Company's realized capital gains on a cumulative basis, calculated as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of investment advisory management agreement), computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any Incentive Fees on Capital Gains previously paid to the Investment Adviser. The aggregate unrealized capital depreciation of the Company shall be calculated as the sum of the differences, if negative, between (a) the valuation of each investment in the Company's portfolio as of the applicable calculation date and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment. For accounting purposes only, we are required under GAAP to accrue a theoretical capital gains incentive fee based upon net realized capital gains and unrealized capital gain and loss on investments held at the end of each period. The accrual of this theoretical capital gains incentive fee assumes all unrealized capital gain and loss is realized in order to reflect a theoretical capital gains incentive fee that would be payable to the Investment Adviser at each measurement date. There was no accrual for theoretical capital gains incentive fee for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. It should be noted that a fee so calculated and accrued would not be payable under the Advisers Act or the investment advisory management agreement, and would not be paid based upon such computation of capital gains incentive fees in subsequent periods. Amounts actually paid to the Investment Adviser will be consistent with the Advisers Act and formula reflected in the investment advisory management agreement which specifically excludes consideration of unrealized capital gain. 143

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Deferred Payment of Certain Incentive Fees For the period between April 1, 2013 and March 31, 2018, AIM has agreed to be paid the portion of the incentive fee that is attributable to interest or dividend income on PIK securities when the Company receives such interest or dividend income in cash. The accrual of incentive fee shall be reversed if such interest or dividend income is written off or determined to be no longer realizable. Upon payment of the deferred incentive fee, AIM will also receive interest on the deferred incentive fee at an annual rate of 3.25% for the period between the date in which the incentive fee is earned and the date of payment. Effective April 1, 2018, with changes in the incentive fees calculation there will be no more deferral of incentive fees on PIK income. The interest will only continue to accrue on the deferred incentive fees payable to AIM as of March 31, 2018. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized $40,360, $35,733 and $47,937, respectively, of management fees, and $1,983, $21,190 and $28,710, respectively, of incentive fees before impact of waived fees. For the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, no management fees were waived (as not applicable) and for the year ended March 31, 2018, management fees waived was $11,984. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, incentive fees waived were $0, $5,542 and $7,734, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, management and performance-based incentive fees payable were $10,289 and $8,880, respectively. For the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 there were no amounts of incentive fees on PIK income for which payments have been deferred, and for the year ended March 31, 2018, the amount of incentive fees on PIK income for which payments have been deferred was $1,543. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company reversed $0, $979 and $2,224, respectively, of the deferred incentive fee payable related to PIK income which were deemed to be no longer realizable. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, there were no cumulative deferred incentive fees on PIK income included in management and performance-based incentive fee payable line of the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the amount of interest on deferred incentive fees accrued were $0, $62 and $100. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company reversed $0, $41 and $43 of the accrued interest payable on deferred incentive fees related to PIK income which were deemed to be no longer realizable. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, there was no accrued interest payable on deferred incentive fees. Fee Offset On January 16, 2019, the Company and AIM entered into a fee offset agreement in connection with revenue realized by AIM and its affiliates for the management of certain aircraft assets. The Company will receive an offsetting credit against total incentive fees otherwise due to AIM under the investment advisory management agreement. The amount offset will initially be 20% of the management fee revenue earned and incentive fee revenue realized by AIM and its affiliates in connection with managing aircraft assets on related insurance balance sheets ("New Balance Sheet Investments"), new aircraft managed account capital ("New Managed Accounts") and new dedicated aircraft funds (New Aircraft Funds"). Once the aggregate capital raised by the New Aircraft Funds or New Manged Accounts and capital invested by the New Balance Sheet Investments exceeds $3 billion cumulatively, the fee offset will step down to 10% of the amount of incremental management fee revenue earned and incentive fee revenue realized by AIM and its affiliates. The fee offset will be in place for seven years, however the incentive fees realized by AIM and its affiliates after this seven-year period from applicable investments that were raised or made within the seven-year period will also be used to offset incentive fees payable to AIM by the Company. The offset will be limited to the amount of incentive fee payable by the Company to AIM and any unapplied fee offset which exceeds the incentive fees payable in a given quarter will carry forward to be credited against the incentive fees payable by the Company in subsequent quarters. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 there was no fee offset. 144

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Administration Agreement with AIA The Company has also entered into an administration agreement with the Administrator (the "Administration Agreement") under which AIA provides administrative services for the Company. For providing these services, facilities and personnel, the Company reimburses the Administrator for the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator and requested to be reimbursed by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement. The expenses include rent and the Company's allocable portion of compensation and other related expenses for its Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and their respective staffs. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized administrative services expense under the Administration Agreement of $6,335, $6,772 and $6,915, respectively. There was no payable to AIA and its affiliates for expenses paid on our behalf as of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019. Administrative Service Expense Reimbursement Merx Aviation Finance, LLC ("Merx"), a wholly-owned portfolio company of the Company, has entered into an administration agreement with the Administrator (the "Merx Administration Agreement") under which AIA provides administrative services to Merx and several Merx managed entities. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized administrative service expense reimbursements of $300, $250 and $250, respectively, under the Merx Administration Agreement. Debt Expense Reimbursements The Company has also entered into debt expense reimbursement agreements with Merx and several other portfolio companies, which will reimburse the Company for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred, including any interest, fees or other amounts incurred by the Company in connection with letters of credit issued on their behalf. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized debt expense reimbursements of $133, $273 and $332, respectively, under the debt expense reimbursement agreements. Co-Investment Activity We may co-invest on a concurrent basis with affiliates of ours, subject to compliance with applicable regulations and our allocation procedures. Certain types of negotiated co-investments may be made only in accordance with the terms of the exemptive order we received from theSEC permitting us to do so. On March 29, 2016, we received an exemptive order from theSEC (the "Order") permitting us greater flexibility to negotiate the terms of co-investment transactions with certain of our affiliates, including investment funds managed by AIM or its affiliates, subject to the conditions included therein. Under the terms of the Order, a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors must be able to reach certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed transaction are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our Board of Directors' approved criteria. In certain situations where co-investment with one or more funds managed by AIM or its affiliates is not covered by the Order, the personnel of AIM or its affiliates will need to decide which fund will proceed with the investment. Such personnel will make these determinations based on allocation policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Order is subject to certain terms and conditions so there can be no assurance that we will be permitted to co-invest with certain of our affiliates other than in the circumstances currently permitted by regulatory guidance and the Order. As of March 31, 2020, the Company's co-investment holdings were 59% of the portfolio or $1,653,269, measured at fair value. On a cost basis, 55% of the portfolio or $1,711,258 were co-investments. As of March 31, 2019, the Company's co-investment holdings were 40% of the portfolio or $954,774, measured at fair value. On a cost basis, 39% of the portfolio or $963,227 were co-investments. 145

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's debt and equity securities are primarily earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") comparable multiples and market discount rates. The Company typically uses EBITDA comparable multiples on its equity securities to determine the fair value of investments. The Company uses market discount rates for debt securities to determine if the effective yield on a debt security is commensurate with the market yields for that type of debt security. If a debt security's effective yield is significantly less than the market yield for a similar debt security with a similar credit profile, the resulting fair value of the debt security may be lower. For certain investments where fair value is derived based on a recovery analysis, the Company uses underlying commodity prices from third party market pricing services to determine the fair value and/or recoverable amount, which represents the proceeds expected to be collected through asset sales or liquidation. Further, for certain investments, the Company also considered the probability of future events which are not in management's control. Significant increases or decreases in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the structured products include the discount rate applied in the valuation models in addition to default and recovery rates applied to projected cash flows in the valuation models. Specifically, when a discounted cash flow model is used to determine fair value, the significant input used in the valuation model is the discount rate applied to present value the projected cash flows. Increases in the discount rate can significantly lower the fair value of an investment; conversely decreases in the discount rate can significantly increase the fair value of an investment. The discount rate is determined based on the market rates an investor would expect for a similar investment with similar risks. For certain investments such as warrants, the Company may use an option pricing technique, of which the applicable method is the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Method ("BSM"), to perform valuations. The BSM is a model of price variation over time of financial instruments, such as equity, that is used to determine the price of call or put options. Various inputs are required but the primary unobservable input into the BSM model is the underlying asset volatility. Investment Transactions For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, purchases of investments on a trade date basis were $1,866,272, $1,278,061 and $1,049,363, respectively. For the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, sales and repayments (including prepayments and unamortized fees) of investments on a trade date basis were $1,265,631, $1,086,779 and $1,153,978, respectively. PIK Income The Company holds loans and other investments, including certain preferred equity investments, that have contractual PIK income. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. During the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, PIK income earned was $10,936, $8,585 and $20,241, respectively. The following table shows the change in capitalized PIK balance for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018:

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Dividend Income on CLOs The Company holds structured products and other investments. The CLO equity investments are entitled to recurring distributions which are generally equal to the excess cash flow generated from the underlying investments after payment of the contractual payments to debt holders and fund expenses. The Company records as dividend income the accretable yield from its beneficial interests in structured products such as CLOs based upon a number of cash flow assumptions that are subject to uncertainties and contingencies. During the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 dividend income from structured products was $1,286, $1,198 and $2,461, respectively. Investments on Non-Accrual Status As of March 31, 2020, 5.1% of total investments at amortized cost, or 1.7% of total investments at fair value, were on non-accrual status. As of March 31, 2019, 2.9% of total investments at amortized cost, or 2.4% of total investments at fair value, were on non-accrual status. Unconsolidated Significant Subsidiary Our investments are generally in small and mid-sized companies in a variety of industries. In accordance with Rules 3-09 and 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X ("Rule 3-09" and "Rule 4-08(g)," respectively), we must determine which of our unconsolidated controlled portfolio companies are considered "significant subsidiaries," if any. In evaluating these investments, there are three tests utilized to determine if any of our controlled investments are considered significant subsidiaries: the investment test, the asset test, and the income test. Rule 3-09 requires separate audited financial statements of an unconsolidated majority-owned subsidiary in an annual report if any of the three tests exceeds 20%. Rule 4-08(g) requires summarized financial information in an annual report if any of the three tests exceeds 10% and summarized financial information in a quarterly report if any of the three tests exceeds 20%. Under Rule 3-09, our investment in Merx Aviation Finance, LLC as of March 31, 2020 exceeded the 20% threshold in at least one of the tests. Accordingly, we are attaching the audited financial statements of Merx Aviation Finance, LLC to Form 10-K. Note 6. Derivative Instruments In the normal course of business, the Company enters into derivative instruments which serve as components of the Company's investment strategies and are utilized primarily to structure the portfolio to economically match the investment strategies of the Company. These instruments are subject to various risks, similar to non-derivative instruments, including market, credit and liquidity risks. The Investment Adviser manages these risks on an aggregate basis along with the risks associated with the Company's investing activities as part of its overall risk management policy. Purchased Put Options Purchased put option contracts give the Company the right, but not the obligation, to sell within a limited time, a financial instrument, commodity or currency at a contracted price that may also be settled in cash, based on differentials between specified indices or prices. Purchasing put options tends to decrease exposure to the underlying instrument. The Company pays a premium, which is recorded as an asset and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire unexercised are treated as realized losses. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised are added to the amounts paid for, or offset against the proceeds received on, the underlying security or reference investment. The risk associated with purchasing put options is limited to the premium paid. 152

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Written Call Options Written call options obligate the Company to buy within a limited time, a financial instrument, commodity or currency at a contracted price that may also be settled in cash, based on differentials between specified indices or prices. When the Company writes a call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Company is treated as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the written call option. If an option which the Company has written either expires unexercised on its stipulated expiration date or the Company enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Company realizes a gain or loss (if the cost of a closing purchase transaction is less than or exceeds, respectively, the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security or derivative instrument, and the liability related to such option is extinguished. If a call option which the Company has written is exercised, the Company recognizes a realized gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security or derivative instrument and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the premium originally received. In writing a call option, the Company bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price, potentially unlimited in amount, of the derivative instrument or security underlying the written call option.

The Investment Adviser is exempt from registration with theU.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") as a commodity pool operator ("CPO") with respect to the Company. To the extent such exemption is no longer available and the Investment Adviser is required to register with the CFTC as a CPO, compliance with the CFTC's disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping requirements may increase the Company's expenses and may affect the ability of the Company to use commodity interests (including futures, option contracts, commodities, and swaps) to the extent or in the manner desired. Note 7. Offsetting Assets and Liabilities The Company entered into centrally cleared derivative contracts withChicago Mercantile Exchange ("CME"). Upon entering into the centrally cleared derivative contracts, the Company is required to deposit with the relevant clearing organization cash or securities, which is referred to as the initial margin. Cash deposited as initial margin is reported as cash collateral on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Centrally cleared derivative contracts entered into with CME are considered settled-to-market contracts where daily variation margin posted is legally characterized as a settlement payment as opposed to collateral. The settlement payment does not terminate the derivative contract and the contract will continue to exist with no changes to its terms. Daily changes in fair value are recorded as a payable or receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as variation margin. 153

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) The Company has elected not to offset assets and liabilities in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities that may be received or paid as part of collateral arrangements, even when an enforceable master netting arrangement or other agreement is in place that provides the Company, in the event of counterparty default, the right to liquidate collateral and the right to offset a counterparty's rights and obligations. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company did not hold any derivative contracts. Note 8. Debt and Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations On April 4, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors, including a "required majority" (as defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the Board, approved the application of the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a result, effective on April 4, 2019, our asset coverage requirement applicable to senior securities was reduced from 200% to 150% (i.e., the revised regulatory leverage limitation permits BDCs to double the amount of borrowings, such that we would be able to borrow up to two dollars for every dollar we have in assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities issued by us).

The amendment reduced the Company's minimum asset coverage financial covenant from 200% to 150%, increased the lenders commitments from $1,190,000 to $1,590,00, extended the final maturity date through November 19, 2023, and included an accordion provision which allows the Company to increase the total commitments under the existing revolving facility up to an aggregate principal amount of $2,385,000 from new or existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments. On February 28, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to its Senior Secured Facility to increase the multicurrency commitments by $50,000 from $1,590,000 to $1,640,000.On May 31, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to its Senior Secured Facility to increase the multicurrency commitments by $70,000 from $1,640,000 to $1,710,000. On March 13, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to its Senior Secured Facility to increase the multicurrency commitments by $100,000 from $1,710,000 to $1,810,000 pursuant to the accordion provisions therein. The accordion provisions under the Senior Secured Facility allow the Company to increase the total commitments under the existing revolving facility up to an aggregate principal amount of $2,385,000 from new or existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments. The Senior Secured Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets in the Company's portfolio, including cash and cash equivalents. Commencing November 30, 2022, the Company is required to repay, in twelve consecutive monthly installments of equal size, the outstanding amount under the Senior Secured Facility as of November 19, 2022. In addition, the stated interest rate on the facility remains as a formula-based calculation based on a minimum borrowing base, resulting in a stated interest rate, depending on the type of borrowing, of (a) either LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum or LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum, or (b) either Alternate Base Rate plus 0.75% per annum or Alternate Base Rate plus 1% per annum. As of March 31, 2020, the stated interest rate on the facility was LIBOR plus 2.00%. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on any unused portion of the Senior Secured Facility and participation fees and fronting fees of up to 2.25% per annum on the letters of credit issued. The Senior Secured Facility contains affirmative and restrictive covenants, events of default and other customary provisions for similar debt facilities, including: (a) periodic financial reporting requirements, (b) maintaining minimum stockholders' equity of the greater of (i) 30% of the total assets of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries as of the last day of any fiscal quarter and (ii) the sum of (A) $870,000 plus (B) 25% of the net proceeds from the sale of equity interests in the Company after the closing date of the Senior Secured Facility, (c) maintaining a ratio of total assets, less total liabilities (other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness, in each case of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, of not less than 1.5:1.0, (d) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, including a requirement to meet a certain minimum liquidity threshold before the Company can incur such additional debt, (e) limitations on liens, (f) limitations on investments (other than in the ordinary course of the Company's business), (g) limitations on mergers and disposition of assets (other than in the normal course of the Company's business activities), (h) limitations on the creation or existence of agreements that permit liens on properties of the Company's consolidated subsidiaries and (i) limitations on the repurchase or redemption of certain unsecured debt and debt securities. In addition to the asset coverage ratio described in clause (c) of the preceding sentence, borrowings under the Senior Secured Facility (and the incurrence of certain other permitted debt) are subject to compliance with a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets in the Company's portfolio. The advance rate applicable to any specific type of asset in the Company's portfolio will also depend on the relevant asset coverage ratio as of the date of determination. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Facility will also continue to be subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Senior Secured Facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $150,000. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company had $6,227 and $15,977, respectively, in standby letters of credit issued through the Senior Secured Facility. The amount available for borrowing under the Senior Secured Facility is reduced by any standby letters of credit issued through the Senior Secured Facility. Under GAAP, these letters of credit are considered commitments because no funding has been made and as such are not considered a liability. These letters of credit are not senior securities because they are not in the form of a typical financial guarantee and the portfolio companies are obligated to refund any drawn amounts. The available remaining capacity under the Senior Secured Facility was $354,371 and $985,135 as of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. Terms used in this disclosure have the meanings set forth in the Senior Secured Facility agreement. 155

Commitments and Contingencies The Company has various commitments to fund various revolving and delayed draw senior secured and subordinated loans, including commitments to issue letters of credit through a financial intermediary on behalf of certain portfolio companies. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the Company had the following unfunded commitments to its portfolio companies: March 31,
2020 March 31, 2019 Unfunded revolver obligations and bridge loan commitments (1)
$ 269,716 $ 225,782 Standby letters of credit issued and outstanding (2) 9,014 23,542 Unfunded delayed draw loan commitments (including commitments with performance thresholds not met)(3) 230,778 172,948 Total Unfunded Commitments(4) $ 509,508 $ 422,272 ____________________ (1)The unfunded revolver obligations may or may not be funded to the borrowing party in the future. The amounts relate to loans with various maturity dates, but the entire amount was eligible for funding to the borrowers as of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, subject to the terms of each loan's respective credit agreements which includes borrowing covenants that need to be met prior to funding. As of March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, the bridge loan commitments included in the balances were $15,050 and $0, respectively. (2)For all these letters of credit issued and outstanding, the Company would be required to make payments to third parties if the portfolio companies were to default on their related payment obligations. None of the letters of credit issued and outstanding are recorded as a liability on the Company's Statements of Assets and Liabilities as such letters of credit are considered in the valuation of the investments in the portfolio company. (3)The Company's commitment to fund delayed draw loans is triggered upon the satisfaction of certain pre-negotiated terms and conditions which can include covenants to maintain specified leverage levels and other related borrowing base covenants. For commitments to fund delayed draw loans with performance thresholds, borrowers are required to meet certain performance requirements before the Company is obligated to fulfill these commitments. (4)The Company also had an unfunded revolver commitment to its fully controlled affiliate Merx Aviation Finance, LLC of $194,700 and $128,800 for the years ended of March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Given the Company's controlling interest, the timing and the amount of the funding has not been determined. As further discussed in Note 2, the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy generally, and the Company's business in particular is uncertain. As of March 31, 2020, no contingencies have been recorded on the Company's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a result of COVID-19, however as the global pandemic continues and the economic implications worsen, it may have long-term impacts on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Refer to Note 2 for further discussion of COVID-19. 159

Income Taxes For income tax purposes, distributions made to stockholders are reported as ordinary income, capital gains, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. The final determination of the tax character of distributions will not be made until we file our tax return for each tax year and the tax characteristics of all distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099 after the end of each calendar year. The tax character of distributions paid to stockholders during the tax years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 were as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Ordinary income $ 120,107 $ 112,042 $ 86,906 Capital gains - - - Return of capital - 14,533 44,088
Total distributions paid to stockholders $ 120,107 $ 126,575

Taxable income generally differs from net increase in net assets resulting from operations for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized gains or losses, as unrealized gains or losses are generally not included in taxable income until they are realized. The following table reconciles the net increase in net assets resulting from operations to taxable income for the tax years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018: Year Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act (the "Act") was enacted which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of RICs. The changes are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment. Under the Act, the Company will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had a post-enactment short-term capital loss carryforward of $245,100 and long-term capital loss carryforward of $494,265. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had a post-enactment short-term capital loss carryforward of $245,271 and long-term capital loss carryforward of $492,257. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had a post-enactment short-term capital loss carryforward of $237,288 and long-term capital loss carryforward of $536,331. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had no pre-enactment net capital loss carryforward. None of the pre-enactment net capital loss carryforwards were utilized in the past three years and none of the pre-enactment net capital loss carryforwards expired on March 31, 2020. For tax purposes, the Company may elect to defer any portion of a post-October capital loss or late-year ordinary loss to the first day of the following fiscal year. As of March 31, 2020, the Company deferred no late-year ordinary losses which are deemed to arise on April 1, 2020. As of March 31, 2019, the Company deferred late-year ordinary losses of 16,477 which is deemed to arise on April 1, 2019. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had no net late-year ordinary loss deferral deemed to arise on April 1, 2018. As of March 31, 2020, the Company deferred post-October capital loss of $5,858 deemed to arise on April 1, 2020. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had no net post-October capital loss deferral deemed to arise on April 1, 2019. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had no net post-October capital loss deferral deemed to arise on April 1, 2018. Management has analyzed the Company's tax positions taken, or to be taken, on federal income tax returns for all open tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Company's financial statements. The Company's federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. In general, we may make certain reclassifications to the components of net assets as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences and book-to-tax differences relating to stockholder distributions. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2020, we adjusted accumulated net realized loss by $1,088 to $745,645 and overdistributed net investment income by ($5,631) to $27,244. Total earnings and net asset value were not affected. As of March 31, 2019, we adjusted accumulated net realized loss by $478,976 to $737,529 and overdistributed net investment income by $48,989 to $58,042. Total earnings and net asset value were not affected. 161

*Totals may not foot due to rounding. (1)Financial highlights are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period presented. (2)The tax character of distributions are determined based on taxable income calculated in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from amounts determined under GAAP. Although the tax character of distributions paid to stockholders through March 31, 2020 may include return of capital, the exact amount cannot be determined at this point. Per share amounts are based on actual rate per share. (3)Total return is based on the change in market price per share during the respective periods. Total return also takes into account distributions, if any, reinvested in accordance with the Company's dividend reinvestment plan. 162

APOLLO INVESTMENT CORPORATION NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data) Note 14. Subsequent Events Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of these financial statements and has determined that there are no subsequent events outside the ordinary scope of business that require adjustment to, or disclosure in, the financial statements other than those disclosed below. The Company believes the estimates and assumptions underlying our financial statements are reasonable and supportable based on the information available as of March 31, 2020. However uncertainty over the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the global economy generally, and the Company's business in particular, makes any estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2020 inherently less certain than they would be absent the current and potential impacts of COVID-19. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates. To the extent the Company's portfolio companies are adversely impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, it may have a material adverse impact on the Company's future net investment income, the fair value of its portfolio investments, its financial condition and the results of operations and financial condition of the Company's portfolio companies. See Note 2 for information regarding the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. On May 20, 2020 the Board of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not "interested persons" of the Company as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, voted to approve the continuation of the Company's investment advisory management agreement through May 20, 2021. On May 20, 2020, the Board of Directors declared a distribution of $0.45 per share, payable on July 8, 2020 to stockholders of record as of June 18, 2020. 164
