On February 24, 2014, Keating Capital, Inc. (“Keating Capital” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: KIPO), a closed-end fund that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ending December 31, 2013.
Management Commentary
“In 2013, we generated $4.4 million of net realized capital gains, which we distributed 100% to our stockholders, resulting in total dividends of $0.49 per share.
We expect a majority of our private portfolio companies to complete an IPO or strategic sale/merger over the course of the next four to eight quarters. Based on our net realized gains from our four portfolio company sales thus far (and the 22% weighted-average internal rate of return from these sales1), we remain confident that our model has been validated.
Finally, we further believe that our adoption of a quarterly distribution policy, which is discussed below, will make Keating Capital’s stock more attractive to both existing and potential new stockholders,” stated Timothy J. Keating, CEO of Keating Capital, Inc.
2013 Portfolio Activity and Analysis
Investment Activity
During 2013, Keating Capital made investments totaling $3.0 million in one new portfolio company Deem, Inc., and approximately $1.2 million in two existing private portfolio companies.
Portfolio Company Sales
The Company defines a “sale” as the disposition of its interest in a portfolio company that has either completed an IPO (after the expiration of the customary 180-day lockup) or been acquired. The gains realized in 2013 were sourced from the sale of Keating Capital’s investments in Corsair Components, LifeLock and Solazyme. Including the sale of its position in NeoPhotonics in 2012, Keating Capital has sold four portfolio company positions to date.
The overall weighted-average internal rate of return on these portfolio company sales taken as a whole was 22%, calculated at the portfolio company level, before giving effect to the Company’s operating expenses (including any incentive fees). See footnote 1.
Portfolio Company Exits
The Company defines an “exit” as a portfolio company that has either completed an IPO or been acquired, but which it has not yet sold its position. In 2013, Keating Capital had two such exits: Tremor Video and Jumptap.
- Tremor Video
On June 26, 2013, Tremor Video completed the pricing of its IPO of 7,500,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $10.00 per share. The cost basis of Keating Capital’s Tremor common stock is $4 million, or $6.67 per share.
- Millennial Media/Jumptap
On November 6, 2013, portfolio company Jumptap, Inc. completed a merger with Millennial Media, Inc. (NYSE: MM) (“Millennial”). As part of the merger, Keating Capital received 1,247,893 shares of Millennial common stock, which have a cost basis of $5 million, or $4.01 per share. As of December 31, 2013, the fair value of Keating Capital’s investment in Millennial was marked at $8.1 million based on Millennial’s closing price of $7.27 at year-end, adjusted for an 11% discount for lack of marketability due to lockup restrictions.
On February 5, 2014, the lockup restrictions on 415,964 shares of Keating Capital’s Millennial stock expired. As of February 20, 2014, Keating Capital had sold 415,964 shares of Millennial at an average price of $7.13 per share, for net realized gains of $1.3 million. Beginning on or about May 5, 2014, the lockup restrictions on an additional 696,735 shares will expire. In addition, a total of 135,194 shares of Millennial are being held in escrow until November 6, 2014 for potential indemnification obligations.

Quarterly Distribution Policy
On February 20, 2014, Keating Capital’s Board of Directors adopted a quarterly distribution policy where it intends to pay regular quarterly distributions to its stockholders based on estimated net capital gains for a given calendar year.
Under the quarterly distribution policy, Keating Capital seeks to maintain a consistent distribution level that may be paid in part or in full from net capital gains or a return of capital, or a combination thereof. If Keating Capital’s actual net capital gains are less than the total amount of its regular quarterly distributions for the year, the difference will be distributed from its capital and will constitute a return of capital to stockholders. Alternatively, if Keating Capital’s actual net capital gains exceed the total amount of its regular quarterly distributions for a given year, Keating Capital’s Board of Directors currently intends to adjust or make an additional distribution in December of each year so that the total distributions for any given year represent 100% of Keating Capital’s actual net capital gains in that year. A return of capital is generally not taxable and, instead, reduces a stockholder's tax basis in his shares of Keating Capital.
The quarterly distribution policy reflects Keating Capital’s commitment to stockholders to provide a predictable, but not assured, level of quarterly distributions based on the estimated amount of net capital gains it projects to realize during the year. However, due to the uncertainty of portfolio companies achieving a liquidity event through either an IPO or sale/merger and the Company’s ability to sell its positions at a gain following a liquidity event, the Company can give no assurance that it will be able to realize net capital gains during the year equal to the amount of its regular quarterly distributions. In addition, the Company can give no assurance that it will be able to realize any net capital gains from the sale of its portfolio company investments.
On February 20, 2014, the Board declared a regular distribution for the first, second and third quarter of 2014 each in the amount of $0.10 per share. The record and payment dates for these distributions are as follows:
Regular | Amount | Record Date | Payment Date | ||||||||
| First Quarter | $0.10 | March 6, 2014 | April 14, 2014 | ||||||||
| Second Quarter | $0.10 | May 8, 2014 | June 17, 2014 | ||||||||
| Third Quarter | $0.10 | August 11, 2014 | September 18, 2014 | ||||||||
Each of these quarterly distributions will be paid in cash or common stock at the election of stockholders. See “Stock Distributions” below.
Stock Distributions
On February 20, 2014, Keating Capital’s Board determined that it intends to pay regular quarterly distributions in cash or shares of Keating Capital’s common stock at the election of stockholders, subject to a limitation that no more than 25% of the aggregate distribution will be paid in cash with the remainder paid in shares of common stock.
Keating Capital’s Board believes there are a number of benefits from paying stock distributions and retaining cash for additional portfolio company investments, including: (i) that increased cash resources would allow Keating Capital to make investments in a greater number of portfolio companies at potentially larger investment amounts, (ii) that an increased capital base would have the effect of reducing Keating Capital’s operating expenses as a percentage of its net assets, and (iii) that a higher market capitalization and potentially greater liquidity may make Keating Capital’s common stock more attractive to investors and help reduce or eliminate its stock price discount to NAV over time. Keating Capital expects to continue to pay a portion of its distributions in shares of its common stock until such time as it has eliminated its stock price discount to NAV and can successfully access the equity capital markets, or on an ongoing basis.
The Company will be providing additional information to stockholders on their cash and stock elections for the Q1 2014 distribution on or about March 7, 2014.
Capitalization
As of December 31, 2013, Keating Capital had 9,548,902 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. There are no options, warrants, or other classes of securities issued or outstanding. Additionally, it had no debt.
Stock Repurchase Program
In May 2012, as part of an overall discount control management program, Keating Capital initiated a stock repurchase plan. The Board discontinued the stock repurchase program in October 2013 in order to make additional capital available for potential new investment opportunities. During the 17-month duration of the repurchase program, Keating Capital repurchased 448,441 shares of its common stock for approximately $3.0 million, or an average price of $6.61 per share. The total shares repurchased under the program represented approximately 4.8% of the outstanding shares at the time Keating Capital commenced the stock repurchase program, and all the purchases were immediately accretive to NAV. The weighted-average discount to NAV for all repurchased shares was 17%. As and when Keating Capital has access to additional capital that does not impair its ability to make additional portfolio company investments, the Board may consider reauthorizing a stock repurchase program.
Rights Offering and Future Equity Offerings
On December 16, 2013, Keating Capital completed a rights offering, which resulted in the issuance of 713,652 additional shares of common stock at a subscription price of $6.00 per share for net proceeds of $3.9 million after offering costs. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the rights offering to fund additional portfolio company investments and for general working capital purposes.
The Company does not intend to raise additional equity capital in 2014 unless and until its stock price is at or above its net asset value per share. Capital for additional portfolio company investments will be provided from the Company’s available cash and the proceeds from its sale of existing portfolio company investments.
Results of Operations and Balance Sheet
Decrease in Net Asset Value for the Fourth Quarter
As of December 31, 2013, the total fair value of Keating Capital’s 17 portfolio company investments was $62.0 million. The Company also had cash and cash equivalents of $13.5 million, or $1.42 per share. The Company’s net assets at December 31, 2013 were $73.0 million, or $7.65 per share, a decline of $0.28 per share during the fourth quarter.
The components that typically drive the changes in NAV each quarter are: (i) net investment losses, effectively the Company’s operating expenses, (ii) realized gains/losses on portfolio company dispositions, (iii) the change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on portfolio company investments, and (iv) distributions paid to stockholders or capital transactions. During the three months ended December 31, 2013:
- The Company had net investment loss—effectively the Company’s operating expenses (including base management fees and accrued incentive fees)—of approximately $740,000, or a loss of $0.08 per share. The Company’s operating expenses, excluding base management fees and accrued incentive fees, were approximately $412,000 in the fourth quarter. During the fourth quarter, the Company recorded a decrease in incentive fee expense of approximately $14,000 resulting from a decrease in net unrealized appreciation of approximately $70,000 during the fourth quarter.
- The Company had no realized gains or losses during the fourth quarter since it did not dispose of any portfolio company positions.
-
The Company had a net decrease in unrealized appreciation on its
portfolio company investments of approximately $70,000, or a decrease
of less than $0.01 per share, as a result of the following:
- Write-ups during the quarter of approximately $3.5 million in seven portfolio companies.
- Write-downs during the quarter of approximately $3.6 million in six portfolio companies.
- The Company’s NAV decreased by $0.01 per share as a result of its dividend paid in December.
- The Company’s issuance of 713,652 shares of common stock in connection with the December 2013 rights offering resulted in a decrease of $0.19 per share.
Decrease in Net Asset Value for 2013
In 2013, the Company’s net asset value decreased from $8.00 to $7.65 per share, a decrease of $0.35. The composition of the $0.35 per share decrease consisted of the following:
-
The Company had net investment loss of approximately $5.3 million, or
a loss of $0.59 per share. The Company’s operating expenses, excluding
base management fees, accrued incentive fees and costs related to the
Company’s follow-on offering registration statement which was
withdrawn in the second quarter of 2013, were approximately $2.1
million for 2013, in line with its previous estimates.
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $2.2 million of accrued incentive fees related to net unrealized appreciation and cumulative net realized gain on its investments. However, as of December 31, 2013, the Company’s investment adviser would not be entitled to payment of an incentive fee until the Company has achieved cumulative net realized gains on its investments in excess of approximately $8.9 million, which represents the sum of each portfolio company investment with unrealized depreciation as of December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $4.7 million of cumulative net realized gains, resulting from the sale of its positions in NeoPhotonics, Solazyme, LifeLock and Corsair.
- In 2013, the Company generated $4.4 million of net realized capital gains for an increase of $0.49 per share. The gains realized in 2013 were sourced from the sale of the Company’s investments in Corsair Components, LifeLock and Solazyme.
-
The Company had a net increase in unrealized appreciation on its
portfolio company investments of approximately $3.2 million, or an
increase of $0.35 per share, as a result of the following:
- Write-ups during the year of approximately $12.8 million in nine portfolio companies.
- Write-downs during the year of approximately $6.4 million in six portfolio companies.
- A reversal of the December 31, 2012 net unrealized appreciation of approximately $3.2 million on the three portfolio companies that were sold during the year.
- The Company’s NAV increased by $0.05 per share as a result of its share repurchases, which was increased by $0.03 per share to a total of $0.08 per share to reconcile the change in net asset value per share to the other per share information presented in the Company’s financial highlights. This increase was offset by the total dividends paid to stockholders of $0.49 per share, representing the Company’s net realized gains in 2013.
- Finally, the Company’s issuance of 713,652 shares of common stock in connection with the December 2013 rights offering resulted in a decrease of $0.19 per share.
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had net unrealized appreciation of approximately $6.4 million, which is reflected in its year-end NAV of $7.65.

1 Portfolio company returns are calculated at the portfolio company level (net of any selling expenses, including broker commissions); however, portfolio company returns do not reflect any of the Company’s operating expenses. Internal rate of return is the annualized rate of return on a portfolio company investment taking into account the amount and timing of all cash flows related to such portfolio company investment including the initial investment, any follow-on investment and the net proceeds from the disposition of such investment. The weighted-average internal rate of return is the annualized rate of return on all disposed portfolio company investments taking into account the amount and timing of the cash flows related to all disposed portfolio company investments (as a group). These returns represent historical results. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
