Environmental Challenges
- Global economic, political and market conditions may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, including our revenue growth and profitability.
- Legislation may be adopted that could significantly affect the regulation of U.S. financial markets.
- Our operation as a BDC imposes numerous constraints on us and significantly reduces our operating flexibility.
- We will be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on all of our income if we are unable to maintain our qualification for tax treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance.
Mitigation Strategies
- We monitor developments and seek to manage our investments in a manner consistent with achieving our investment objective, but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so.
- We will continue to monitor our compliance with all future regulations that are adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and will take actions necessary to ensure that we are in compliance therewith.
