  5. A Brief BDC Primer On Business Development Companies

  6. As part of the Small Business Incentive Act of 1980, Congress created a public investment company vehicle called a “business development company” in order to encourage the flow of public capital to private businesses. BDCs are publicly registered, closed-end investment companies with shares that trade like stock on an exchange. As a result, BDCs are available to public investors who otherwise would not generally have access to private equity funds. Unlike traditional private equity funds, BDCs operate for an indefinite period and continually recycle their contributed capital. Historically, BDCs have made debt and equity investments in small middle-market companies and returned the bulk of the profits to stockholders in the form of quarterly dividends.

  7. The Business of BDCs BDCs provide capital in the form of senior debt, subordinated debt and equity to Private Equity-backed middle-market companies. Capital usually required for buy-outs and re-capitalizations. BDCs serve both as financiers and buy-out sponsors. BDCs income consists of interest on senior and subordinated debt, and gains from sale of equity interests. BDC expenses consist of interest expense on borrowings, operating expenses & management fees.

  8. Tax Treatment of BDCs Generally, a BDC will elect to be treated as a regulated investment company (RIC) for tax purposes to avoid corporate level taxation on ordinary income and capital gains distributed to its stockholders as dividends. As a RIC, a BDC is required to distribute at least 90 percent of its ordinary income & realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses and to meet specified source of income and asset diversification requirements. Distributions out of capital gains to individual stockholders are generally eligible for favorable capital gain tax treatment.

  9. BDCs may utilize leverage, but are subject to 1940 Act Limits which generally require at least 200 percent asset coverage as measured after any borrowing. Effectively, a BDC’s debt NEVER exceeds 100% equity. Currently, average debt to equity around 0.6 : 1.0 BDCs have very low leverage compared to competitors such as banks, finance companies or CLOs, where debt can be 10-15x X equity.
