NEW YORK, Jan. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GSC Investment Corp. (NYSE: GNV), a business development company, today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended November 30, 2009.
Operating Results
For the quarter ended November 30, 2009, GSC Investment Corp. reported net investment income of $0.9 million, or $0.10 per share, and net gain on investments of $8.3 million, or $0.91 per share, resulting in a net increase in net assets from operations of $9.1 million, or $1.01 per share. $8.8 million of the net gain was due to unrealized appreciation. Net asset value was $3.80 per share as of November 30, 2009 as compared to $6.91 per share as of August 31, 2009. The decrease in NAV per share from August 31, 2009 was primarily the result of the distribution of 8.6 million shares of common stock on December 31, 2009 for the stock portion of the dividend declared on November 13, 2009. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principals, the number of shares outstanding used to calculate NAV per share as of November 30, 2009 was retroactively adjusted to reflect the additional shares issued as a result of the stock dividend. Excluding the issuance of these additional shares, the NAV per share would have been $7.76 as of November 30, 2009.
Portfolio and Investment Activity
As of November 30, 2009, the value of the Company's investment portfolio was $103.3 million, principally invested in 29 portfolio companies and one collateralized loan obligation fund ("CLO"). The overall portfolio composition consisted of 15.4% first lien term loans, 29.1% second lien term loans, 27.5% senior secured notes, 7.1% unsecured notes, 20.8% subordinated notes of GSCIC CLO and 0.1% equity/limited partnership interests.
During the third quarter, GSC Investment Corp. made no investments in new or existing portfolio companies. For the quarter, the Company had $5.7 million in aggregate amount of exits and repayments, resulting in net repayments of $5.7 million.
As of November 30, 2009, the weighted average current yield on the Company's first lien term loans, second lien term loans, senior secured notes, unsecured notes and the GSCIC CLO subordinated notes were 7.8%, 8.0%, 11.6%, 12.3% and 11.0%, respectively, which resulted in an aggregate weighted average current yield of 9.8%.
As of November 30, 2009, 43.2%, or $35.3 million, of the Company's interest-bearing portfolio was fixed rate debt with a weighted average current coupon of 11.7% and 56.8%, or $46.5 million, of its interest-bearing portfolio was floating rate debt with a weighted average current spread of LIBOR plus 7.1%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At November 30, 2009, the Company had $43.8 million in borrowings under its credit facility and an asset coverage ratio of 247%.
On July 30, 2009, an unremedied borrowing base deficiency became an event of default, which is currently continuing. During the continuance of an event of default, the lender has the ability to terminate the facility and sell the underlying collateral necessary to satisfy outstanding borrowings. The lender has elected not to accelerate the obligation to date, but has reserved the right to do so. Including $6.3 million of repayments made subsequent to November 30, 2009, the Company has repaid $18.3 million of outstanding borrowings since the event of default consisting of $11.6 million of proceeds from asset sales and repayments and $6.7 million from cash interest received in excess of interest expense.
The Company continues to work with the investment banking firm of Stifel Nicolaus & Company as it actively evaluates strategic alternatives to maximize long-term shareholder value.

The dividend consisted of $2.1 million in cash and 8,648,725 shares of common stock or 104% of GSC Investment Corp's outstanding shares prior to the dividend.
