Item 2.02        Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

Set forth below is a preliminary estimate of our net asset value per share as of October 10, 2013 and a preliminary estimate of our adjusted net investment income per share range for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The following estimates are not a comprehensive statement of our financial condition or results for the period from December 31, 2012 through September 30, 2013. We advise you that our actual results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 may differ materially from these estimates, which are given only as of the date of this prospectus supplement, as a result of the completion of our financial closing procedures, final adjustments and other developments, including changes in interest rates or changes in the businesses to whom we have made loans, which may arise between now and the time that our financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are finalized. In addition, our board of directors has not yet determined the fair value of our investment portfolio as of September 30, 2013, which could have a material impact on our actual net asset value per share as of September 30, 2013. This information is therefore inherently uncertain.

 

We currently believe that the Operating Company, New Mountain Finance Holdings, L.L.C., will meet the adjusted net investment income per share estimate of between $0.33 and $0.35 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, which was previously announced on our quarterly earnings call held on August 8, 2013.

 

We estimate that our net asset value per share as of October 10, 2013 is approximately $14.34.

 

The preliminary financial estimates provided herein have been prepared by, and are the responsibility of, management. Deloitte & Touche LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or performed any procedures with respect to the accompanying preliminary financial data. Accordingly, Deloitte & Touche LLP does not express an opinion or any form of assurance with respect thereto.

 

The information disclosed under this Item 2.02 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
