−Removed: We apply Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC
−Removed: 820), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements.
−Removed: ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current
−Removed: sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
−Removed: Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are
−Removed: independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.
−Removed: In accordance with ASC 820, we consider our principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity.
−Removed: ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes
−Removed: and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in the determination of fair value.
−Removed: In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:
−Removed: Level 1Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access.
−Removed: Level 2Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable,
−Removed: either directly or indirectly.
−Removed: Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair
−Removed: value measurement.
−Removed: In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, we apply the valuation policy approved by the Board that is consistent
−Removed: with ASC 820.
+Added: In connection with debt and equity securities that are valued at fair value in good faith by the Board, the Board will periodically
+Added: engage independent third-party valuation firms to estimate a range of fair values for a sample of investments, which are used to corroborate managements fair value estimates.
+Added: In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, we apply the valuation policy approved by our Board that is consistent with ASC 820.
Consistent with the valuation policy, we evaluate the source of inputs, including any markets in which our investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value.
−Removed: When a security is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (that is, broker quotes), we subject those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for
−Removed: classification as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment.
−Removed: For example, we review pricing methodologies provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs.
−Removed: additional factors considered include the number of prices obtained as well as an assessment as to their quality.
−Removed: Due to the inherent uncertainty of
−Removed: determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period.
−Removed: Additionally, the fair value of such investments may differ significantly from the
−Removed: values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be realized.
−Removed: Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may

−Removed: Income Taxes:
−Removed: We have elected to be treated for U.S.

−Removed: To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset
−Removed: diversification requirements, as well as distribute to its stockholders, for each tax year, at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, which is generally our net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net
−Removed: short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, determined without regard to any deduction for distributions paid.
−Removed: As a RIC, we will not have to pay corporate-level U.S.
−Removed: federal income taxes on any income that it distributes to
−Removed: its stockholders.
−Removed: We intend to make distributions in an amount sufficient to qualify for and maintain our RIC tax status each tax year and to not pay any U.S.
−Removed: federal income taxes on income so distributed.
−Removed: We are also subject to nondeductible
−Removed: federal excise taxes if we do not distribute in respect of each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of 98% of net ordinary income, 98.2% of any capital gain net income, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior

−Removed: federal income taxes.
−Removed: Transaction Costs:
−Removed: We and Alcentra Capital have each incurred direct transaction costs
−Removed: resulting from the Alcentra Acquisition.
−Removed: Alcentra Capital expensed its transaction costs as incurred.
−Removed: We, as the acquirer in an asset acquisition, should include transaction costs as a component of consideration transferred and allocate such
−Removed: consideration to the acquired assets and liabilities on a relative fair value basis.
−Removed: Since including transaction costs in total consideration would result in assigning an amount greater than fair value to Alcentra Capitals financial
−Removed: instruments and other non-qualifying assets, such costs have been shown as a reduction in net assets for purposes of the pro forma statement of assets and liabilities.
−Removed: We are expecting to incur approximately $5.2 million in estimated transaction costs (net of $1.4 million of transaction support received from the
−Removed: We expect to incur additional $0.7 million in incremental insurance costs, which is presented as other liabilities on the proforma Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

−Removed: The unaudited pro forma
−Removed: condensed consolidated financial information reflects the issuance of approximately 5.2 million shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
−Removed: The Alcentra Acquisition will be accounted for using the asset acquisition method of accounting.
−Removed: Accordingly, the merger consideration paid by us in connection with the Alcentra Acquisition will be allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of Alcentra Capital at their relative fair values estimated by us as of the effective date.
−Removed: The excess fair value of the net assets acquired over the fair value of the merger consideration paid by us will be allocated against the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Alcentra Capital by us.

−Removed: asset $4.3 million and deferred financing cost of $1.3 million and recognition of proforma deferred merger expense of $5.2 million, inclusive of additional $2.2 million expense incurred subsequent to December 31, 2019.
−Removed: An adjustment of $9.8
−Removed: million to investments is based upon our estimates of fair value determined using the valuation methodology summarized in Note 1.
−Removed: An adjustment of $3.7 million to other liabilities relates to $3.0 million of additional expenses incurred in
−Removed: connection with the merger and an incremental $0.7 million of merger expenses incurred by Alcentra Capital subsequent to December 31, 2019.
−Removed: The pro forma adjustment to cash reflects $44.9 million capital contribution from our investors, net of a $10.3 million spillover dividend paid by Alcentra Capital, the net purchase price paid in connection by us in connection with the Alcentra
−Removed: Acquisition of $9.0 million and additional liquidity of $6.4 million funded via a draw on Alcentra Capitals revolving credit facility.
−Removed: pro forma adjustment reflects an increase in net assets of $3.5 million in connection with the consummation of the Alcentra Acquisition.
−Removed: The increase in net assets is comprised of the following:
−Removed: (i) total consideration from us of
−Removed: $110.5 million is comprised of cash consideration of $19.3 million less $10.3 million Alcentra Capital spillover dividend, estimated stock consideration of $101.5 million based on our December 31, 2019 net asset value and
−Removed: 5.2 million of newly issued CCAP shares in connection with a conversion of the Alcentra shares at a ratio of 0.4041 per share, less (ii) net assets acquired of $114.0 million, which is comprised of gross net assets of

−Removed: reinvestment plan issuance, which both occurred subsequent to December 31, 2019 but prior to the January 31, 2020 closing of the Alcentra Acquisition.
−Removed: KEY COMPONENTS OF OPERATIONS
−Removed: We expect our investment activity to vary
−Removed: substantially from period to period depending on many factors, the general economic environment, the amount of capital we have available to us, the level of merger and acquisition activity for middle-market companies, including the amount of debt
−Removed: and equity capital available to such companies and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.
−Removed: In addition, as part of our risk strategy on investments, we may reduce certain levels of investments through partial sales or
−Removed: syndication to additional investors.
−Removed: We must not invest in any assets other than qualifying assets specified in the 1940 Act, unless, at the
−Removed: time the investments are made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions).

+Added: Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
+Added: Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of purchase discounts and premiums.
+Added: Discounts and premiums to par value on
+Added: securities purchased are accreted or amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective securities using the effective yield method.
+Added: The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion
+Added: and amortization of discounts and premiums, if any.
+Added: Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.
+Added: Dividend income from common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the
+Added: ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies.
+Added: Dividend income from preferred equity securities is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company
+Added: and are expected to be collected.
+Added: Each distribution received from an equity investment is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital.
+Added: Generally, we will not record distributions from
+Added: equity investments as dividend income unless there is sufficient current or accumulated earnings prior to the distribution.
+Added: Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction of capital are recorded as a reduction
+Added: in the cost basis of the investment.
+Added: Certain investments have contractual
+Added: payment-in-kind (PIK) interest or dividends.
+Added: PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal or cost basis of
+Added: the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer.
+Added: PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable.
+Added: point we believe PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status.
+Added: Accrued PIK interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend
+Added: income, respectively, when an investment is placed on non-accrual status.
+Added: Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full.
+Added: Accrued and unpaid interest is generally
+Added: reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status.
+Added: Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon
+Added: managements judgment regarding collectability.
+Added: Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in managements judgment, are likely to
+Added: remain current.
+Added: Management may determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
+Added: We have elected to be treated as a BDC
+Added: under the 1940 Act.
+Added: We also have elected to be treated as a RIC under the Internal Revenue Code.
+Added: So long as we maintain our status as a RIC, we will generally not pay corporate-level U.S.
+Added: federal income or excise taxes on any ordinary income or
+Added: capital gains that we distribute at least annually to our stockholders as dividends.
+Added: As a result, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by us represents obligations of our stockholders and will not be reflected in our
+Added: consolidated financial statements.
+Added: We evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our consolidated financial
+Added: statements to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not to be sustained by the applicable tax authority.
+Added: Tax positions not deemed to meet the
+Added: more-likely-than-not threshold are reversed and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.
+Added: All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax
+Added: Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and
+Added: interpretations thereof.
+Added: We account for income taxes in conformity with ASC 740 Income Taxes (ASC 740).
+Added: ASC 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured,
+Added: presented and disclosed in financial statements.
+Added: In order for us not to be subject to federal excise taxes, we must distribute annually an amount at least
+Added: equal to the sum of (i) 98% of our ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections), (ii) 98.2% of our net capital gains from the current year and (iii) any undistributed ordinary income and net capital gains from
+Added: preceding years.
+Added: We, at our discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% excise tax on this income.
+Added: If we choose to do so, this generally would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be
+Added: distributed to stockholders.
+Added: We accrue excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income as required on a quarterly basis.

+Added: We intend to comply with the applicable provisions of the Code, pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of taxable income
+Added: sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income taxes.
+Added: As of December 31, 2020, we are subject to examination by U.S.

−Removed: accounting policies should be read in connection with our risk factors as disclosed herein.
−Removed: In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting

−Removed: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: Investment Valuation
−Removed: We apply Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair
−Removed: value in accordance with GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements.
−Removed: ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market
−Removed: participants on the measurement date.
−Removed: Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.
−Removed: accordance with ASC 820, we consider our principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity.
−Removed: ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in the
−Removed: determination of fair value.
−Removed: In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:
−Removed: Level 1Valuations based on quoted
−Removed: prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access.
−Removed: Level 2Valuations based on
−Removed: quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
−Removed: Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
−Removed: In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, we apply the valuation policy approved by our Board that is consistent with ASC 820.
−Removed: Consistent with the valuation policy, we evaluate the source of inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value.
−Removed: When a security
−Removed: is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (that is, broker quotes), we subject those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for classification as a
−Removed: Level 2 or Level 3 investment.
−Removed: For example, we review pricing methodologies provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs.
−Removed: Some additional factors
−Removed: considered include the number of prices obtained as well as an assessment as to their quality.
−Removed: Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the period in which the transfers occur.
−Removed: During the year ended December 31,
−Removed: 2019, we recorded $18.1 million in transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 and $4.7 million in transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 due to an increase and a decrease in observable inputs in market data.
−Removed: During the year ended
−Removed: December 31, 2018, we recorded $0 in transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 and $27.1 million in transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 due to an increase and a decrease in observable inputs in market data, respectively.
−Removed: the year ended December 31, 2017, we recorded $5.2 million in transfers from Level 3 to Level 2 and $11.8 million in transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 due to an increase and a decrease in observable inputs in
−Removed: market data, respectively.
−Removed: Investments in investment companies are valued at fair value.
−Removed: Fair values are generally determined utilizing the net asset
−Removed: value (NAV) supplied by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company, which is net of management and incentive fees or allocations charged by the investment company and is in accordance with the practical
−Removed: expedient, as defined by ASC 820.
−Removed: NAVs received by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company are based on the fair value of the investment companys underlying investments in accordance with policies established by
−Removed: management of each investment company, as described in each of their financial statements and offering memorandum.
−Removed: Investments which are valued using NAV as a practical expedient are excluded from the above hierarchy.
−Removed: Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at those market quotations.
−Removed: To validate market quotations, we utilize a
−Removed: number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of the quotations.
−Removed: Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available are valued
−Removed: at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, based on, among other things, the input of the Advisor, our Audit Committee and independent third-party valuation firms engaged at the direction of the Board.
−Removed: The Board oversees and supervises a multi-step valuation process, which includes, among other procedures, the following:
−Removed: The valuation process begins with each investment being initially valued by the investment professionals
−Removed: responsible for the portfolio investment in conjunction with the portfolio management team.
−Removed: The Advisors management reviews the preliminary valuations with the investment professionals.
−Removed: valuation recommendations are presented to the Audit Committee.
−Removed: The Audit Committee reviews the valuations presented and recommends values for each investment to the Board.
−Removed: The Board reviews the recommended valuations and determines the fair value of each investment;
−Removed: valuations that
−Removed: are not based on readily available market quotations are valued in good faith based on, among other things, the input of the Advisor, Audit Committee and, where applicable, other third parties.
−Removed: We currently conduct this valuation process on a quarterly basis.
−Removed: In connection with debt and equity securities that are valued at fair value in good faith by the Board, the Board will engage independent third-party
−Removed: valuation firms to perform certain limited procedures that the Board has identified.
−Removed: Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily
−Removed: available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period.
−Removed: Additionally, the fair value of such investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such
−Removed: investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be realized.
−Removed: Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may be subject to contractual and other restrictions on resale.
−Removed: required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, it could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.
−Removed: In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately
−Removed: realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected herein.

−Removed: To the extent such costs relate to equity offerings, these costs are charged as a reduction of capital upon the issuance of common shares.
−Removed: As of July 2019, we have repaid such
−Removed: initial organization costs and equity offering costs.
−Removed: At the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we received stockholder approval to extend the period during which capital may be called from stockholders (the Commitment Period).

−Removed: Interest and Dividend Income Recognition
−Removed: Interest income
−Removed: is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of purchase discounts and premiums.
−Removed: Discounts and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted or amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective
−Removed: security using the effective yield method.
−Removed: The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion and amortization of discounts and premiums, if any.
−Removed: Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment
−Removed: premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.
−Removed: Dividend income from preferred equity
−Removed: securities is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected.
−Removed: Dividend income from common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio
−Removed: companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded portfolio companies.
−Removed: Each distribution received from an equity investment is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend
−Removed: income or a return of capital.
−Removed: Generally, we will not record distributions from equity investments as dividend income unless there is sufficient current or accumulated earnings prior to the distribution.
−Removed: Distributions that are classified as a return
−Removed: of capital are recorded as a reduction of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.
−Removed: To date, all distributions have been classified as dividend income.
−Removed: Certain investments have contractual payment-in-kind (PIK)
−Removed: interest or dividends.
−Removed: PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal or cost basis of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally
−Removed: becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer.
−Removed: PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable.
−Removed: If at any point we believe PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status.
−Removed: Accrued PIK interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, respectively, when an investment is placed on non-accrual
