Third Quarter 2021 Results
Commenting on the quarter, Eric Lloyd, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "For the third quarter, Barings BDC continued to deliver consistent and differentiated returns across our sponsor and cross-platform investment strategies. Portfolio trends remain strong, and our wide investment frame of reference across various private asset classes remains a distinct competitive advantage as we navigate elevated market competition."
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company reported total investment income of $35.0 million, net investment income of $14.9 million, or $0.23 per share, and a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $14.4 million, or $0.22 per share.
Net asset value ("NAV") per share as of September 30, 2021 was $11.40, as compared to $11.39 as of June 30, 2021. The increase in NAV per share from June 30, 2021 to September 30, 2021 was primarily attributed to net unrealized appreciation on the Company's investment portfolio and foreign currency transactions of approximately $0.05 per share and net investment income exceeding the third quarter dividend by $0.02 per share, partially offset by net realized losses on investments and foreign currency transactions of $0.06 per share.
Jonathan Bock, Chief Financial Officer, stated, "At $0.23 per share of net investment income, Barings BDC continues to meet its long-term earnings target of 8.0% on NAV per share. This strong earnings outlook, when combined with our stable funding profile and best-in-class incentive fee structure, continues to drive enhanced earnings stability in this market environment. As a result, I am happy to announce that our Board of Directors declared a dividend increase of 4.8% to $0.22 per share in the fourth quarter.
Recent Portfolio Activity
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company made 19 new investments totaling $122.1 million, made investments in existing portfolio companies totaling $60.3 million, made additional investments in existing joint venture equity portfolio companies totaling $3.8 million and made an $89.8 million equity co-investment alongside certain affiliates in a portfolio company focused on directly originated, senior-secured asset-based loans to middle-market companies. The Company had ten loans repaid at par totaling $103.7 million and received $6.6 million of portfolio company principal payments. In addition, the Company sold $32.5 million of loans, recognizing a net realized gain on these transactions of $1.0 million, and sold $88.0 million of middle-market portfolio company debt investments to our joint venture and realized a loss on these transactions of $1.1 million. Lastly, the Company received proceeds related to the sales of equity investments totaling $1.5 million and recognized a net realized gain on the sales totaling $1.1 million.
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded net unrealized appreciation totaling $3.3 million, consisting of net unrealized appreciation related to foreign currency transactions of $10.9 million, partially offset by net unrealized depreciation on our current portfolio of $4.7 million and unrealized depreciation reclassification adjustments of $2.9 million related to the net realized gains on the sales / repayments of certain investments. The net unrealized depreciation on our current portfolio of $4.7 million was driven primarily by the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on investments of $6.9 million and the credit or fundamental performance of investments of $0.2 million, partially offset by broad market moves for investments of $2.4 million.
Liquidity and Capitalization
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had cash and foreign currencies of $41.4 million, short-term money market fund investments of $50.0 million, $662.7 million of borrowings outstanding under its $800.0 million senior secured revolving credit agreement and $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes outstanding. In addition, the Company had a net receivable from unsettled transactions of $61.4 million and commitments from an investor to purchase an additional $25.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes under its Note Purchase Agreement entered into on August 3, 2020 (the "August 2020 NPA"), subject to the terms of the August 2020 NPA.
In addition, on November 1, 2021, Fitch Ratings assigned a Long-Term Issuer Default Rating ("IDR") of BBB to the Company. The Ratings Outlook is Stable. The ratings reflect the strength of the Company's relationship with Barings LLC, a subsidiary of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (long-term IDR AA/Stable), the first lien focus of the investment portfolio, a relatively strong track record in credit in vehicles with similar strategies historically, sound risk management, relatively low leverage, a solid liquidity profile, strong dividend coverage and sound funding flexibility.
Share Purchase Programs
In connection with the completion of the Company's acquisition of MVC Capital, Inc. ("MVC"), a Delaware corporation, on December 23, 2020 (the "MVC Acquisition"), the Company committed to make open-market purchases of shares of its common stock in an aggregate amount of up to $15.0 million at then-current market prices at any time shares trade below 90% of the Company's then most recently disclosed NAV per share. Any repurchases pursuant to the authorized program will occur during the 12-month period commencing upon the filing of the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which occurred on May 6, 2021, and will be made in accordance with applicable legal, contractual and regulatory requirements. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did not repurchase any shares under the authorized program.
Dividend Information
The Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per share.
The Company's fourth quarter dividend is payable as follows:
Fourth Quarter 2021 Dividend:
Amount per share: $0.22
Record date: November 24, 2021
Payment date: December 1, 2021
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Barings BDC has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP") that provides for reinvestment of dividends and distributions on behalf of its stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, when the Company declares a cash dividend or distribution, stockholders who have not opted out of the DRIP will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company's common stock, rather than receiving cash.
When the Company declares and pays dividends and distributions, it determines the allocation of the distribution between current income, accumulated income, capital gains and return of capital on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). At each year end, the Company is required for tax purposes to determine the allocation based on tax accounting principles. Due to differences between GAAP and tax accounting principles, the portion of each dividend distribution that is ordinary income, capital gain or return of capital may differ for GAAP and tax purposes. The tax status of the Company's distributions can be found on the Investor Relations page of its website.
Subsequent Events
Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Company made approximately $238.5 million of new commitments, of which $164.4 million closed and funded. The $164.4 million of investments consist of $124.9 million of first lien senior secured debt investments, $14.5 million of second lien senior secured and subordinated debt investments and $25.0 million of equity investments. The weighted average yield of the debt investments was 6.7%. In addition, the Company funded $3.8 million of previously committed delayed draw term loans.
Effective on November 4, 2021, the Company increased aggregate commitments under its senior secured revolving credit facility to $875.0 million from $800.0 million pursuant to the accordion feature under the credit facility, which allows for an increase in the total commitments to an aggregate of $1.2 billion subject to certain conditions and the satisfaction of specified financial covenants.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To provide additional information about the Company's results, the Company's management has discussed in this press release the Company's net debt (calculated as total debt less unrestricted cash and foreign currencies (excluding restricted cash), short-term investments and net receivables from unsettled transactions) and its net debt-to-equity ratio (calculated as net debt divided by total net assets), which are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are included to supplement the Company's financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and because the Company uses such measures to monitor and evaluate its leverage and financial condition and believes the presentation of these measures enhances investors' ability to analyze trends in the Company's business and to evaluate the Company's leverage and ability to take on additional debt. However, these non-GAAP measures have limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial results as reported under GAAP.
These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. These measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with their corresponding GAAP measures. Pursuant to the requirements of Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K, as promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company has provided a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures in the last table included in this press release.
