While we have sought to invest primarily in private small and lower middle-market companies in various industries, we are now (with a strategic alternatives process underway and limited resources) investing only in current investments and otherwise conserving cash. Our investment objective is to maximize the total return to our stockholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation through debt and related equity investments in private small and lower middle-market companies. SinceJanuary 1, 2018 , we have been managed byHouse Hanover, LLC ("House Hanover"). As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than "qualifying assets" specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in "eligible portfolio companies." Under the relevantSEC rules, the term "eligible portfolio company" includes all private companies, companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of less than$250 million , in each case organized inthe United States . OnNovember 15, 2019 , our Board announced that the Company has initiated a strategic review process to identify, examine, and consider a range of strategic alternatives available to the Company, including but not limited to, (i) selling the Company's assets to a business development company or other potential buyer, (ii) merging with another business development company, (iii) liquidating the Company's assets in accordance with a plan of liquidation, (iv) raising additional funds for the Company, or (v) otherwise entering into another business combination, with the objective of maximizing stockholder value. Corporate History In order to expedite the ramp-up of our investment activities and further our ability to meet our investment objectives onMarch 13, 2015 , we (i) acquired approximately$11.2 million in cash,$43.5 million in equity and debt investments, and$1.9 million in restricted cash escrow deposits ofCapital Point Partners, L.P. ("CPP") andCapital Point Partners II, L.P. ("CPPII") (together, the "Partnerships"), and (ii) issued approximately 115.5 million shares of our common stock based on a pre-valuation presumed fair value of$60.9 million and on a price of approximately$0.53 per share. While we have sought to invest primarily in private small and lower middle-market companies in various industries, we are now (with a strategic alternatives process underway and limited resources) investing only in current investments and otherwise conserving cash. On an annual basis and in general, BDCs intend to elect to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). To qualify as a RIC, a BDC must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. As a RIC, BDCs generally will not have to pay corporate-level taxes on any income they distribute to their stockholders. We did not meet the qualifications of a RIC for the 2020 tax year and will be taxed as a corporation under Subchapter C of the Code. Further, we do not expect to meet the qualifications of a RIC until such time as certain strategic alternatives are achieved.
Portfolio Composition and Investment Activity
Portfolio Composition
We originate and invest primarily in private small and lower middle-market companies through first lien loans, second lien loans, unsecured loans, unitranche and mezzanine debt financing, and corresponding equity investments. United States Treasury securities may be purchased and temporarily held in connection with complying with RIC diversification requirements under Subchapter M of the Code. AtMarch 31, 2021 , the Company had investments in 7 portfolio companies. The total cost and fair value of the total investments were approximately$46.2 million and$26.0 million , respectively. The composition of our investments by asset class as ofMarch 31, 2021 is as follows: Percentage of Total Investments Cost Fair Value Portfolio Portfolio Investments First Lien Loans$ 15,537,699 $ 17,662,060 68.0 % Second Lien Loans 12,766,144 6,617,352 25.5 Unsecured Loans 1,381,586 - - Equity 16,483,889 1,697,663 6.5 Total Portfolio Investments$ 46,169,318 $ 25,977,075 100.0 % - 33 -
AtDecember 31, 2020 , the Company had investments in 7 portfolio companies. The total cost and fair value of the total investments were approximately$46.2 million and$21.6 million , respectively. The composition of our investments by asset class as ofDecember 31, 2020 is as follows: Percentage of Total Investments Cost Fair Value Portfolio Portfolio Investments First Lien Loans$ 15,537,699 $ 14,671,435 68.0 % Second Lien Loans 12,766,144 5,235,708 24.3 Unsecured Loans 1,381,586 - - Equity 16,483,889 1,659,880 7.7 Total Portfolio Investments 46,169,318 21,567,023 100.0 Total Investments$ 46,169,318 $ 21,567,023 100.0 %
AtMarch 31, 2021 , our weighted average yield of our portfolio investments, based upon cost and excluding non-yielding assets, was approximately 7.39% of which approximately 7.39% is current cash interest, all bearing a fixed rate of interest except for one debt investment bearing interest at a variable rate. AtDecember 31, 2020 , our weighted average yield based upon cost of our portfolio investments was approximately 7.39% of which approximately 7.39% is current
cash interest.
AtMarch 31, 2021 andDecember 31, 2020 , we held no United States Treasury securities. United States Treasury securities may be purchased and temporarily held in connection with complying with RIC diversification requirements under Subchapter M of the Code. Investment Activity Our level of investment activity can vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital to middle market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types
of investments we make.
The primary portfolio investment activities for the three months ended

Judgment on its breach of contract claim against
and World Class Capital Group, LLC , awarding damages to the Company in the
amount of $9,910,601 . On March 9, 2021 , the Harris County District Court granted the Company's Motion to Sever Remaining Claims. These remaining
claims are pending in the Harris County District Court . (See Note 8)
Asset Quality
In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our investment
advisor used an investment rating system to characterize and monitor the quality
of our debt investment portfolio. Equity securities and Treasury Bills are not
graded. This debt investment rating system uses a five-level numeric scale. The
following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment
rating:
Investment
Rating Summary Description
1 Investments that are performing above expectations, and whose risks
remain favorable compared to the expected risk at the time of the
original investment.
2 Investments that are performing within expectations and whose risks
remain neutral compared to the expected risk at the time of the
original investment. All new loans will initially be rated 2.
3 Investments that are performing below expectations and that require
closer monitoring, but where no loss of return or principal is
expected. Portfolio companies with a rating of 3 may be out of
compliance with financial covenants.4 Investments that are performing substantially below expectations and
whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment.
These investments are often in work out. Investments with a rating of 4
will be those for which some loss of return but no loss of principal is
expected.
5 Investments that are performing substantially below expectations and
whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment.
These investments almost always in work out. Investments with a rating
of 5 are those for which some loss of return and principal is expected.

We will not accrue interest on loans and debt securities if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. As ofMarch 31, 2021 , we had 5 loans on non-accrual status and as ofDecember 31, 2020 , we had 5 loans on non-accrual status. Results of Operations An important measure of our financial performance is net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income (loss), net realized gain (loss) and net change in unrealized gain (loss). Net investment income (loss) is the difference between our income from interest, dividends, fees and other investment income and our operating expenses including interest on borrowed funds. Net realized gain (loss) on investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their amortized cost. Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments is the net change in the fair value of our investment portfolio. Revenues
We generate revenue in the form of interest income on debt investments and
capital gains and distributions, if any, on investment securities that we may
acquire in portfolio companies. Our debt investments typically have a term of
five to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest on
our debt securities is generally payable quarterly. Payments of principal on our
debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment,
deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt
investments may pay interest in-kind, or PIK. Any outstanding principal amount
of our debt securities and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become
due at the maturity date. The level of interest income we receive is directly
related to the balance of interest-bearing investments multiplied by the
weighted average yield of our investments. We expect that the dollar amount of
interest and any dividend income that we earn to increase as the size of our
investment portfolio increases. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form
of prepayment fees, commitment, loan origination, structuring or due diligence
fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and possibly consulting fees.
These fees will be reorganized as they are earned.

Net Realized Gain (Loss)
We measure realized gains (losses) by the difference between the net proceeds
from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, using
the specific identification method, without regard to unrealized appreciation or
depreciation previously recognized.

Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)
Net change in unrealized gain (loss) primarily reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.
Net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments totaled a gain of$4,410,052 for the three months endedMarch 31, 2021 primarily in connection with gains of$2,114,584 ,$1,417,500 and$876,041 onRockfish Seafood Grill, Inc. ,Performance Alloys, LLC ., andGreat Value Storage, LLC ., which were partially offset by losses of$35,856 fromAdvantis Certified Staffing Solutions, Inc.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We intend to continue to generate cash from future offerings of securities and cash flows from operations, including earnings on investments in our portfolio and future investments, as well as interest earned from the temporary investment of cash inU.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. We may, if permitted by regulation, seek various forms of leverage and borrow funds to make investments. As ofMarch 31, 2021 , we had$1,343,733 in cash and$25,546 in restricted cash, and our net assets totaled$26,586,264 . We believe that our anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet our cash needs for our daily operations for at least the next twelve months. Contractual Obligations
As of
We have entered into one contract under which we have material future
commitments, the House Hanover Investment Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which
House Hanover serves as our investment adviser. Payments under the House Hanover
Investment Advisory Agreement in future periods will be equal to a percentage of
the value of our net assets.
The House Hanover Investment Advisory Agreement is terminable by either party
without penalty upon written notice by the Company or 60 days' written notice by
House Hanover. If this agreement is terminated, the costs we incur under a new
agreement may increase. In addition, we will likely incur significant time and
expense in locating alternative parties to provide the services we expect to
receive under our investment advisory agreement. Any new investment advisory
agreement would also be subject to approval by our stockholders.
- 38 -
Distributions
For the three months ended
In order to qualify as a RIC and to avoidU.S. federal corporate level income tax on the income we distribute to our stockholders, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our net ordinary income and our net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders on an annual basis. Additionally, we must distribute an amount at least equal to the sum of 98% of our net ordinary income (during the calendar year) plus 98.2% of our net capital gain income (during each 12-month period ending onOctober 31 ) plus any net ordinary income and capital gain net income for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid noU.S. federal income tax to avoid aU.S. federal excise tax. To the extent that we have income available, we intend to make quarterly distributions to our stockholders. Our stockholder distributions, if any, will be determined by our board of directors on a quarterly basis. Any distribution to our stockholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. The Company did not meet the requirements to qualify as a RIC for the 2020 tax year and will be taxed as a corporation under Subchapter C of the Code. It may not be in the best interests of the Company's stockholders to elect to be taxed as a RIC at the present time due to the net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards the Company currently has. Management will make a determination that is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. While the Company does not expect to meet the qualifications of a RIC until such time as certain strategic alternatives are achieved, it can still declare a dividend even though it is not required to do so. We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of our distributions from time to time. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage requirements applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we could suffer adverse tax consequences, including the possible failure to qualify as a RIC. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions. To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our stockholders forU.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus, the source of a distribution to our stockholders may be the original capital invested by the stockholder rather than our income or gains. Stockholders should read any written disclosure accompanying any stockholder distribution carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our ordinary income or capital gains. We have adopted an "opt out" dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, if we declare a distribution, the stockholders' cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock unless a stockholder specifically "opts out" of our dividend reinvestment plan. If a stockholder opts out, that stockholder will receive cash distributions. Although distributions paid in the form of additional shares of our common stock will generally be subject toU.S. federal, state and local taxes in the same manner as cash distributions, stockholders participating in our dividend reinvestment plan will not receive any corresponding cash distributions with which to pay any such applicable taxes.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources.

Management Fees
Management fees earned by House Hanover for the three months ended
As ofMarch 31, 2021 andDecember 31, 2020 , management fees of$603,215 and$552,121 , respectively, were payable to House Hanover. HouseHanover is allowing management fees to accrue and not be paid to allow the Company to build its cash balance and analyze the best use of its available funds. Incentive Fees The Company is not obligated to pay House Hanover an incentive fee. Incentive fees are a typical component of investment advisory agreements with business development companies.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 of the financial statements for a description of recent accounting pronouncements, if any, including the expected dates of adoption and the anticipated impact on the financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures in conformity withU.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. In addition to the discussion below, our significant accounting policies are further described in the notes to the financial statements.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
As a BDC, we generally invest in illiquid loans and securities including debt
and equity securities of middle-market companies. Under procedures established
by our board of directors, we value investments for which market quotations are
readily available at such market quotations. We obtain these market values from
an independent pricing service or at the mean between the bid and ask prices
obtained from at least two brokers or dealers (if available, otherwise by a
principal market maker or a primary market dealer). Debt and equity securities
that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available
are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors.
Such determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and
estimates, although we engage independent valuation providers to review the
valuation of each portfolio investment that does not have a readily available
market quotation quarterly. Investments purchased within 60 days of maturity are
valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which
approximate fair value. With respect to unquoted securities, our board of
directors values each investment considering, among other measures, discounted
cash flow models, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are
public and other factors, that are provided by a nationally recognized
independent valuation firm. This valuation firm provides a range of values for
selected investments, which is presented to the Valuation Committee to determine
the value for each of the selected investments.
- 40 -
When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or
subsequent equity sale occurs, our board of directors uses the pricing indicated
by the external event to corroborate and/or assist us in our valuation. Because
there is not a readily available market for substantially all of the investments
in our portfolio, we value our portfolio investments at fair value as determined
in good faith by our board of directors using a documented valuation policy and
a consistently applied valuation process. Due to the inherent uncertainty of
determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available
market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from
the values that would have been used had a readily available market value
existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, our board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
? Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or
investment being initially valued by an independent valuation firm, except for
those investments where market quotations are readily available;
? Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our
senior management, our investment advisor, and our auditors;
? The valuation committee of our board of directors then reviews these
preliminary valuations and approves them for recommendation to the board of
directors;
? The board of directors then discusses valuations and determines the fair value
of each investment in our portfolio in good faith, based on the input of our
investment advisor, the independent valuation firm and the valuation committee.
Revenue Recognition Realized gain (loss) on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of portfolio investments and their stated costs. Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt securities with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the loan balance that generally becomes due at maturity, we do not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. Generally, we will not accrue interest on loans and debt securities if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we then accrete or amortize such amounts using the effective interest method as interest income. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized loan origination is recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.
Dividend income, if any, will be recognized on the ex-dividend date.
Generally, when a payment default occurs on a loan in the portfolio, or if the Company otherwise believes that the borrower will not be able to make contractual interest payments, the Company may place the loan on non-accrual status and cease recognizing interest income on the loan until all principal and interest is current through payment, or until a restructuring occurs, and the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if a loan has sufficient collateral value, is in the process of collection or is viewed to be able to pay all amounts due if the loan were to be collected on through an investment in or sale of the business, the sale of the assets of the business, or some portion or combination thereof.
