Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our portfolio primarily consists of equity and debt investments in smaller U.S. companies that primarily own commercial real estate that are either illiquid or not listed on any exchange, and our
investments are considered speculative in nature. As a result, we are subject to risk of loss which may prevent our stockholders from achieving price appreciation, dividend distributions and a return of their capital. At March 31, 2023, financial
instruments that subjected us to concentrations of market risk consisted principally of equity investments, which represented approximately 25% of our total assets as of that date. As discussed in Note 4 – Investments, to our consolidated financial
statements, these investments primarily consist of securities in companies with no readily determinable market values and as such are valued in accordance with our fair value policies and procedures. Our investment portfolio also includes shares of
publicly traded REITs, which are valued at recently quoted trading prices. Our investment strategy represents a high degree of business and financial risk due primarily to the general illiquidity of our investments. We may make short-term
investments in cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality investments that mature in one year or less, pending investments in portfolio companies made according to our principal investment strategy.
