HARRIS & HARRIS GROUP, INC. CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 |
(8) | With our investment in the Series E round of financing, we received a warrant to purchase shares of common stock of up to 30 percent of the amount invested in the Series E round of financing of Bridgelux, Inc., depending on certain financial performance metrics of the company as of December 31, 2011, at a price per share of $1.9056. The number of shares able to be purchased and beginning of the period for when this warrant is exercisable will be set upon receipt of the audited financial statements of the company for the 2011 fiscal year or upon the completion of an IPO or sale of the company, whichever comes first. Bridgelux did not complete an IPO or sale of the company as of December 31, 2011. Also as of that date, the audited financials for the company’s 2011 fiscal year were not available. This warrant is, therefore, a contingent asset as of December 31, 2011. With our investment in the bridge note financing in the fourth quarter of 2011, we received a warrant for the purchase of common stock that is exercisable at the date of issuance, but the number of shares for which it can be exercised increases monthly from the date of issuance through the close of the next round of equity financing of the company up to 50 percent of the principal amount invested in the note divided by $1.9056. The warrant for common stock is exercisable for 56,564 shares of common stock of Bridgelux as of December 31, 2011. |
(9) | These investments are development-stage companies. A development-stage company is defined as a company that is devoting substantially all of its efforts to establishing a new business, and either it has not yet commenced its planned principal operations, or it has commenced such operations but has not realized significant revenue from them. |
(10) | Cobalt Technologies, Inc., also does business as Cobalt Biofuels. |
(11) | With our investment in a convertible bridge note issued by Ensemble Therapeutics Corporation, we received a warrant to purchase a number of shares of the class of stock sold in the next financing of Ensemble Therapeutics Corporation equal to $149,539.57 divided by the price per share of the class of stock sold in the next financing of Ensemble Therapeutics Corporation. The ability to exercise this warrant is, therefore, contingent on Ensemble Therapeutics Corporation completing successfully a subsequent round of financing. This warrant shall expire and no longer be exercisable on September 10, 2015. The cost basis of this warrant is $89.86. |
(12) | As part of a loan the Company made to Molecular Imprints in the second quarter of 2011, we received a liquidation preference payable upon a sale of the company equal to three times the principal of the loan, or $4,044,450. This preference is senior to the preferences of the outstanding preferred stock. While the loan has since been repaid, this liquidation preference remains outstanding as of December 31, 2011. |
(13) | Represents a non-income producing security. Investments that have not paid dividends or interest within the last 12 months are considered to be non-income producing. |
(14) | Initial investment was made during 2011. |

HARRIS & HARRIS GROUP, INC. FOOTNOTE TO CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS |
VALUATION PROCEDURES
I. | Determination of Net Asset Value |
The 1940 Act requires periodic valuation of each investment in the portfolio of the Company to determine its net asset value. Under the 1940 Act, unrestricted securities with readily available market quotations are to be valued at the current market value; all other assets must be valued at "fair value" as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors is also responsible for (1) determining overall valuation guidelines and (2) ensuring that the investments of the Company are valued within the prescribed guidelines.
The Valuation Committee, comprised of all of the independent Board members, is responsible for determining the valuation of the Company’s assets within the guidelines established by the Board of Directors. The Valuation Committee receives information and recommendations from management. An independent valuation firm also reviews select portfolio company valuations. The independent valuation firm does not provide proposed valuations.
The fair values assigned to these investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized when that investment is sold, as such amounts depend on future circumstances and cannot reasonably be determined until the individual investments are actually liquidated or become readily marketable.
II. | Approaches to Determining Fair Value |
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") define fair value 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 (exit price). In effect, GAAP applies fair value terminology to all valuations whereas the 1940 Act applies market value terminology to readily marketable assets and fair value terminology to other assets.
The main approaches to measuring fair value utilized are the market approach and the income approach.
· | Market Approach (M): The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. For example, the market approach often uses market multiples derived from a set of comparables. Multiples might lie in ranges with a different multiple for each comparable. The selection of where within the range each appropriate multiple falls requires judgment considering factors specific to the measurement (qualitative and quantitative). |
33 |
· | Income Approach (I): The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. Those valuation techniques include present value techniques; option-pricing models, such as the Black-Scholes-Merton formula (a closed-form model) and a binomial model (a lattice model), which incorporate present value techniques; and the multi-period excess earnings method, which is used to measure the fair value of certain assets. |
GAAP classifies the inputs used to measure fair value by these approaches into the following hierarchy:
• | Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; |
• | Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 2 inputs are in those markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers; and |
• | Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect our own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based upon the best available information. |
Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement and are not necessarily an indication of risks associated with the investment.
III. Investment Categories
The Company’s investments can be classified into five broad categories for valuation purposes:
· | Equity-related securities; |
· | Long-term fixed-income securities; |
· | Short-term fixed-income securities; |
· | Investments in intellectual property, patents, research and development in technology or product development; and |
· | All other securities. |
The Company applies the methods for determining fair value discussed above to the valuation of investments in each of these five broad categories as follows:
34 |
A. | EQUITY-RELATED SECURITIES |
Equity-related securities, including options or warrants, are valued using the market or income approaches. The following factors may be considered when the market approach is used to fair value these types of securities:
§ | Readily available public market quotations; |
§ | The cost of the Company’s investment; |
§ | Transactions in a company's securities or unconditional firm offers by responsible parties as a factor in determining valuation; |
§ | The financial condition and operating results of the company; |
§ | The company's progress towards milestones; |
§ | The long-term potential of the business and technology of the company; |
§ | The values of similar securities issued by companies in similar businesses; |
§ | Multiples to revenue, net income or EBITDA that similar securities issued by companies in similar businesses receive; |
§ | The proportion of the company's securities we own and the nature of any rights to require the company to register restricted securities under applicable securities laws; and |
§ | The rights and preferences of the class of securities we own as compared with other classes of securities the portfolio company has issued. |
When the income approach is used to value warrants, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula.
B. | LONG-TERM FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES |
1. | Readily Marketable: Long-term fixed-income securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued using the most recent bid quotations when available. |
2. | Not Readily Marketable: Long-term fixed-income securities for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued using the income approach. The factors that may be considered when valuing these types of securities by the income approach include: |
· | Credit quality; |
· | Interest rate analysis; |
· | Quotations from broker-dealers; |
· | Prices from independent pricing services that the Board believes are reasonably reliable; and | |
· | Reasonable price discovery procedures and data from other sources. |
35 |
C. | SHORT-TERM FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES |
Short-term fixed-income securities are valued in the same manner as long-term fixed-income securities until the remaining maturity is 60 days or less, after which time such securities may be valued at amortized cost if there is no concern over payment at maturity.
D. | INVESTMENTS IN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, PATENTS, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN TECHNOLOGY OR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT |
Such investments are fair valued using the market approach. The Company may consider factors specific to these types of investments when using the market approach including:
· | The cost of the Company’s investment; |
· | Investments in the same or substantially similar intellectual property or patents or research and development in technology or product development or offers by responsible third parties; |
· | The results of research and development; |
· | Product development and milestone progress; |
· | Commercial prospects; |
· | Term of patent; |
· | Projected markets; and |
· | Other subjective factors. |
E. | ALL OTHER SECURITIES |
All other securities are reported at fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Committee using the approaches for determining valuation as described above.
For all other securities, the reported values shall reflect the Valuation Committee's judgment of fair values as of the valuation date using the outlined basic approaches of valuation discussed in Section III. They do not necessarily represent an amount of money that would be realized if we had to sell such assets in an immediate liquidation. Thus, valuations as of any particular date are not necessarily indicative of amounts that we may ultimately realize as a result of future sales or other dispositions of investments we hold.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
NOTE 1. THE COMPANY
Harris & Harris Group, Inc. (the "Company," "us," "our" and "we"), is a venture capital company operating as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") that specializes in making investments in companies commercializing and integrating products enabled by nanotechnology and microsystems. We operate as an internally managed company whereby our officers and employees, under the general supervision of our Board of Directors, conduct our operations.
H&H Ventures Management, Inc.SM ("Ventures"), formerly Harris & Harris Enterprises, Inc., is a 100 percent wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Ventures is taxed under Subchapter C of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") (a "C Corporation"). Harris Partners I, L.P, is a limited partnership and, from time to time, may be used to hold certain interests in portfolio companies. The partners of Harris Partners I, L.P., are Ventures (sole general partner) and the Company (sole limited partner). Ventures pays taxes on any non-passive investment income generated by Harris Partners I, L.P. For the period ended September 30, 2012, there was no non-passive investment income generated by Harris Partners I, L.P. Ventures, as the sole general partner, consolidates Harris Partners I, L.P. The Company consolidates its wholly owned subsidiary, Ventures, for financial reporting purposes.
NOTE 2. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all information and disclosures necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of valuation adjustments and normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.
NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:
37 |
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. In accordance with GAAP and Regulation S-X, the Company may only consolidate its interests in investment company subsidiaries and controlled operating companies whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Ventures, is a controlled operating company that provides services to us and is, therefore, consolidated. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Revision of Previously Reported Consolidated Financial Statements During the First Quarter of 2012. During the period ended March 31, 2012, the Company concluded the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows erroneously classified cash flow items within operating and investing activities. Specifically, the Company's purchases and sales of various debt, equity and other securities were previously classified within investing activities when such purchases and sales activities should have been classified within operating activities. Following is a list of purchases and sales activities that have now been included in operating activities, rather than investing activities, in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:
Purchase of U.S. government securities
Sale of U.S. government securities
Investment in affiliated portfolio companies
Investment in unaffiliated portfolio companies
Proceeds from sale of investments
Proceeds from call option premiums
Payments for call option purchases
Principal payments received on debt investments
The net impact of these revisions was to increase the total cash used in operating activities and decrease the total cash used in investing activities by $4,475,222, $3,765,559 and $23,780,399 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, the six months ended June 30, 2011, and the nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2011, and 2010, the net impact was to increase total operating activities and decrease total investing activities by $35,665,311 and $8,058,322, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the net impact was to decrease total operating activities and increase total investing activities by $15,432,513. The Company assessed the impact of the error on its prior period financial statements and concluded that the error was not material to any of those financial statements.
Use of Estimates. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and the differences could be material. The most significant estimates relate to the fair valuations of our investments.
38 |
Portfolio Investment Valuations. Investments are stated at "value" as defined in the 1940 Act and in the applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in accordance with GAAP. Value, as defined in Section 2(a)(41) of the 1940 Act, is (i) the market price for those securities for which a market quotation is readily available and (ii) the fair value as determined in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors for all other assets. (See "Valuation Procedures" in the "Footnote to Consolidated Schedule of Investments.") As of September 30, 2012, our financial statements include privately held investments and one illiquid publicly traded venture capital investment, Champions Oncology, Inc., collectively fair valued at $98,973,856. The fair values of our privately held and illiquid publicly traded venture capital investments were determined in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors. Upon sale of investments, the values that are ultimately realized may be different from what is presently estimated. The difference could be material.
Cash. Cash includes demand deposits. Cash is carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
Restricted Funds. At September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, we held $2,010,010 and $1,512,031, respectively, in "Restricted funds." At September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, we held $2,000,000 and $1,500,000, respectively, in a collateral account for our credit facility discussed in "Note 5. Debt." At September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, we also held $10,010 and $12,031, respectively, in security deposits for sublessors.
Unaffiliated Rights to Milestone Payments. At September 30, 2012, the outstanding milestone payments from Amgen, Inc.’s acquisition of Biovex Group, Inc., were valued at $3,400,488. The milestone payments are derivatives and valued using the probability-adjusted, present value of proceeds from future payments that would be due upon successful completion of certain regulatory and sales milestones. If all remaining milestones are met, we would receive $9,526,393. There can be no assurances as to how much of this amount we will ultimately realize or when it will be realized, if at all.
Funds Held in Escrow from Sales of Investments. At September 30, 2012, there were funds held in escrow fair valued at $588,276 relating to the sales of Innovalight, Inc., and Crystal IS, Inc. Funds held in escrow are valued using certain discounts applied to the amounts withheld. Funds held in escrow from the Innovalight transaction will be released in January 2013 upon settlement of any indemnity claims and expenses related to the transaction. A portion of the funds held in escrow from the Crystal IS transaction was released on April 30, 2012. The balance of the Crystal IS funds in escrow will be released in March 2013 upon settlement of any remaining indemnity claims and expenses related to the transaction. If the funds held in escrow for these transactions are released in full, we would receive $1,201,074. On March 16, 2012, the Company received payment of its portion of the proceeds held in escrow since the closing of the transaction on March 4, 2011, from Amgen, Inc.’s acquisition of BioVex Group, Inc., totaling $953,480.
Prepaid Expenses. We include prepaid insurance premiums and deferred financing charges in "Prepaid expenses." Prepaid insurance premiums are recognized over the term of the insurance contract. Deferred financing charges consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of credit facilities and are capitalized at the time of payment. Deferred financing charges are amortized over the term of the credit facility discussed in "Note 5. Debt." Amortization of the financing charges is included in "Interest and other debt expense" in the "Consolidated Statements of Operations."
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are included in "Other assets" and are carried at $302,688 and $331,006 at September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, respectively, representing cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the premises and equipment. We estimate the useful lives to be five to ten years for furniture and fixtures, three years for computer equipment, and ten years for leasehold improvements.
39 |
Post Retirement Plan Liabilities. The Company provides a Retiree Medical Benefit Plan for employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. Until it was terminated on May 5, 2011, the Company also provided an Executive Mandatory Retirement Benefit Plan for certain individuals employed by us in a bona fide executive or high policy-making position. The net periodic postretirement benefit cost for the year is determined as the sum of service cost for the year, interest on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation and amortization of the transition obligation (asset) less previously accrued expenses over the average remaining service period of employees expected to receive plan benefits. Unrecognized actuarial gains and losses are recognized as net periodic benefit cost pursuant to the Company's historical accounting policy for amortizing such amounts. Actuarial gains and losses that arise that are not recognized as net periodic benefit cost in the same periods are recognized as a component of net assets.
Interest Income Recognition. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. When securities are determined to be non-income producing, the Company ceases accruing interest and writes off any previously accrued interest. Securities are deemed to be non-income producing if, on their last interest or dividend date, no cash was paid or no cash or in-kind dividends were declared. These write-offs are recorded as a debit to interest income. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company earned $74,821 and $210,146, respectively, in interest on U.S. government securities, senior secured debt, participation agreements, subordinated secured debt and interest-bearing accounts. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded, on a net basis, $275,148 and $190,466, respectively, of bridge note interest. The nine months total includes a partial write-off of previously accrued bridge note interest of $200,583, which was recognized in the second quarter of 2012, offset by $236,238 of interest recognized in the third quarter upon conversion of this investment.
Loan Fees. Loan fees received in connection with our venture debt investments are deferred. The unearned fee income is accreted into income based on the effective interest method over the life of the investment.
Call Options. The Company writes covered call options on publicly traded securities with the intention of earning option premiums. Option premiums may increase the Company’s realized gains and, therefore, may help increase distributable income, but may limit the realized gains on the security. When a Company writes (sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Company is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When an option expires, the Company realizes a gain on the option to the extent of the premiums received. Premiums received from writing options that are exercised or closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.

Stock-Based Compensation. The Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan. The Company accounts for the Amended and Restated Harris & Harris Group, Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Amended Stock Plan") by determining the fair value of all share-based payments to employees, including the fair value of grants of employee stock options and restricted stock awards, and records these amounts as an expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the vesting period with a corresponding increase to our additional paid-in capital. At September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, the increase to our operating expenses was offset by the increase to our additional paid-in capital, resulting in no net impact to our net asset value. Additionally, the Company does not record the potential tax benefits associated with the expensing of stock options because the Company currently intends to qualify as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Code, and the deduction attributable to such expensing, therefore, is unlikely to provide any additional tax savings. The amount of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is based on the fair value of the awards the Company expects to vest, recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis for each award, and adjusted for actual stock-based awards vested and pre-vesting forfeitures. The forfeiture rate is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if the actual forfeiture rate differs from the estimated rate and is accounted for in the current period and prospectively. See "Note 8. Stock-Based Compensation" for further discussion.
Rent expense. Our lease at 1450 Broadway, New York, New York, commenced on January 21, 2010. The lease expires on December 31, 2019. The base rent is $36 per square foot with a 2.5 percent increase per year over the 10 years of the lease, subject to a full abatement of rent for four months and a rent credit for six months throughout the lease term. Certain leasehold improvements were also paid for on our behalf by the landlord, the cost of which is accounted for as property and equipment and "Deferred rent" in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. These leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lease term. We apply these rent abatements, credits, escalations and landlord payments on a straight-line basis in the determination of rent expense over the lease term.
Realized Gain or Loss and Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation of Portfolio Investments. Realized gain or loss is recognized when an investment is disposed of and is computed as the difference between the Company's cost basis in the investment at the disposition date and the net proceeds received from such disposition. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by specific identification. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation is computed as the difference between the fair value of the investment and the cost basis of such investment.
Income Taxes. As we intend to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, the Company does not provide for income taxes. The Company has capital loss carryforwards that can be used to offset net realized capital gains. The Company recognizes interest and penalties in income tax expense.
We pay federal, state and local income taxes on behalf of our wholly owned subsidiary, Ventures, which is a C Corporation. See "Note 9. Income Taxes."
Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, included in the net increase in unrealized appreciation on investments was unrealized appreciation of $199,932 resulting from foreign currency translation.
Securities Transactions. Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the transaction for the purchase or sale of the securities is entered into by the Company (i.e., trade date).
Concentration of Credit Risk. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in money market accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

NOTE 4. BUSINESS RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
We invest primarily in privately held companies, the securities of which are inherently illiquid. We also have investments in small publicly traded companies. Although these companies are publicly traded, their stock may not trade at high volumes and prices can be volatile, which may restrict our ability to sell our positions. These privately held and publicly traded businesses tend to not have attained profitability, and many of these businesses also lack management depth and have limited or no history of operations. Because of the speculative nature of our investments and the lack of a liquid market for and restrictions on transfers of privately held investments and some of our publicly traded investments, there is greater risk of loss than is the case with traditional investment securities.
We do not choose investments based on a strategy of diversification. We also do not rebalance the portfolio should one of our portfolio companies increase in value substantially relative to the rest of the portfolio. Therefore, the value of our portfolio may be more vulnerable to microeconomic events affecting a single sector, industry or portfolio company and to general macroeconomic events that may be unrelated to our portfolio companies. These factors may subject the value of our portfolio to greater volatility than a company that follows a diversification strategy. As of September 30, 2012, our largest 10 investments by value accounted for approximately 73 percent of the value of our equity-focused venture capital portfolio. Our largest two investments, by value, Solazyme, Inc., a publicly traded company, and Adesto Technologies Corporation, a privately held company, accounted for approximately 18.8 percent and 12.9 percent, respectively, of our equity-focused venture capital portfolio at September 30, 2012.
Approximately 78 percent of our equity-focused venture capital portfolio by value was comprised of securities of 25 privately held companies. Because there is typically no public or readily ascertainable market for our interests in the small privately held companies in which we invest, the valuation of the securities in that portion of our portfolio is determined in good faith by our Valuation Committee, comprised of all of the independent members of our Board of Directors, in accordance with our Valuation Procedures and is subject to significant estimates and judgments. The determined value of the securities in our portfolio may differ significantly from the values that would be placed on these securities if a ready market for the securities existed. Any changes in valuation are recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Net increase in unrealized appreciation on investments." Changes in valuation of any of our investments in privately held companies from one period to another may be volatile.
NOTE 5. DEBT
On February 24, 2011, the Company established a $10 million three-year revolving credit facility (the “credit facility”) with TD Bank, N.A. to be used in conjunction with its investments in venture debt.
42 |
The credit facility matures on February 24, 2014, and generally bears interest, at the Company’s option, based on (i) LIBOR plus 1.25 percent or (2) the higher of the federal funds rate plus fifty basis points (0.50 percent) or the U.S. prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal. The credit facility generally requires payment of interest on a monthly basis and requires the payment of a non-use fee of 0.15 percent annually. All outstanding principal is due upon maturity. The credit facility is secured by cash collateral held in a non-interest bearing account at TD Bank. The credit facility contains affirmative and restrictive covenants, including: (a) periodic financial reporting requirements, (b) maintaining our status as a BDC (c) maintaining unencumbered, liquid assets of not less than $7,500,000, (d) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, (e) limitations on liens, and (f) limitations on mergers and dissolutions. The credit facility is used to supplement our capital to make additional venture debt investments.
The Company’s outstanding debt balance was $2,000,000 and $1,500,000, at September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, respectively. At September 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, $2,000,000 and $1,500,000, respectively, was held in a collateral account at T.D. Bank as security for the loan. The weighted average annual interest cost for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and twelve months ended December 31, 2011, was 1.6 percent and 1.5 percent, respectively, exclusive of amortization of closing fees and other expenses related to establishing the credit facility. The remaining capacity under the credit facility was $8,000,000 at September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants required by the credit facility.

Valuation Methodologies and Inputs for Level 3 Assets
The following sections describe the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used to measure Level 3 assets.
44 |
Preferred Stock, Bridge Notes and Common Stock
Preferred stock, bridge notes and common stock are valued by a market approach using internal models with inputs, most of which are not market observable. Common inputs for valuing Level 3 preferred stock, bridge note and private common stock investments include: prices from recently executed private transactions in a company’s securities or unconditional firm offers, revenue multiples of comparable publicly traded companies, discounts for lack of marketability, rights and preferences of the class of securities we own as compared with other classes of securities the portfolio company has issued, particularly related to potential liquidity scenarios of an IPO or an acquisition transaction, and management’s best estimate of risk attributable to non-performance risk. We define non-performance as the risk that the price per share (or implied valuation of a portfolio company) or the effective yield of a debt security of a portfolio company, as applicable, does not appropriately represent the risk that a portfolio company with negative cash flow will be: (a) unable to raise capital, will need to be shut down and will not return our invested capital; or (b) able to raise capital, but at a valuation significantly lower than the implied post-money valuation of the last round of financing. The assessment of non-performance risk typically includes an evaluation of the financial condition and operating results of the company, the company's progress towards milestones, and the long-term potential of the business and technology of the company and how this potential may or may not affect the value of the shares owned by us. An increase to the non-performance risk or a decrease in the private offering price of a future round of financing from that of the most recent round would result in a lower fair value measurement and/or a change in the distribution of value among the classes of securities we own.
Bridge notes commonly contain terms that provide for the conversion of the full amount of principal, and sometimes interest, into shares of preferred stock at a defined price per share and/or the price per share of the next round of financing. The use of a discount for non-performance risk in the valuation of bridge notes would indicate the potential for conversion of only a portion of the principal, plus interest when applicable, into shares of preferred stock or the potential that a conversion event will not occur and that the likely outcome of a liquidation of assets would result in payment of less than the remaining principal outstanding of the note. An increase in non-performance risk would result in a lower fair value measurement.
Warrants
We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model to determine the fair value of warrants held in our portfolio. Option pricing models, including the Black-Scholes-Merton model, require the use of subjective input assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, expected dividend rate, and expected risk-free rate of return. In the Black-Scholes-Merton model, variations in the expected volatility or expected term assumptions have a significant impact on fair value. Because the securities underlying the warrants in our portfolio are not publicly traded, many of the required input assumptions are more difficult to estimate than they would be if a public market for the underlying securities existed.
An input to the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model is the value per share of the type of stock for which the warrant is exercisable as of the date of valuation. This input is derived according to the methodologies discussed in “Preferred Stock, Bridge Notes and Common Stock.”
Rights to Milestone Payments
Rights to Milestone Payments are valued using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. As part of Amgen Inc.’s acquisition of our former portfolio company, BioVex Group, Inc., we are entitled to potential future milestone payments based upon the achievement of certain regulatory and sales milestones. We assign probabilities to the achievements of the various milestones. Milestones identified as independent milestones can be achieved irrespective of the achievement of other contractual milestones. Dependent milestones are those that can only be achieved after another, or series of other, milestones are achieved. The interest rates used in these models are observable inputs from sources such as the Federal Reserve published interest rates.
45 |
Participation Agreements, Subordinated Secured Debt and Senior Secured Debt
We invest in venture debt investments through participation agreements, subordinated secured debt and senior secured debt. We value these securities using an income approach. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. Common inputs for valuing Level 3 debt investments include: the effective yield of the debt investment or, in the case where we have received warrant coverage, the warrant-adjusted effective yield of the security, adjustments for changes in the yields of comparable publicly traded high-yield debt funds and risk-free interest rates and an assessment of non-performance risk. For those debt investments made through participation agreements, we include discounts for the risk of breach of the participation agreements. For venture debt investments, an increase in yields would result in a lower fair value measurement. Furthermore, yields would decrease, and value would increase, if the company is exceeding targets and risk has been substantially reduced from the level of risk that existed at the time of investment. Yields would increase, and values would decrease, if the company is failing to meet its targets and risk has been increased from the level of risk that existed at the time of investment.
Non-Convertible Promissory Note
We have one non-convertible promissory note, which we value using an income approach that uses a valuation technique to convert future amounts to a single present value. This security has a liquidation preference payable upon a sale of the company equal to three times the principal of the loan. While the loan has since been repaid, this liquidation preference remains outstanding as of September 30, 2012. Inputs include the preferred stock price of the portfolio company, an assessment of non-performance risk, the probability of exit outcomes between an IPO and an acquisition and the resulting impact on rights and preferences of the class of securities we own as compared with other classes of securities the portfolio company has issued.
OTC Traded Common Stock
Common stock that is thinly traded in OTC markets is valued using internal models with inputs that are not market observable. Common inputs for stock include the volume-weighted average of recent prices per share of privately negotiated financing transactions and the volume-weighted price per share of the stock over a period of time and an assessment of non-performance risk.
