Insights

Credit & capital structure analyst

BCP refinances nearer-term debt with longer, higher-cost notes.

BCP Investment Corporation is issuing $50,000,000 of 7.50% notes due 2029 and intends to use proceeds to repay $40.0 million of 5.25% notes due 2026 and other indebtedness. This extends maturities but locks in a higher coupon.

The new notes are unsecured, sit pari passu with other unsubordinated unsecured debt, and are effectively junior to secured and subsidiary-level obligations. Covenants reference Investment Company Act asset coverage tests and ongoing financial information, along with commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a rating, offering some lender protections.

Optional redemption terms allow the company to call the notes at par plus a make-whole premium before April 24, 2029, and at par on or after that date. Future filings may clarify how this refinancing affects overall leverage, interest expense, and the mix of secured versus unsecured borrowings.

Notes Offering

On March 20, 2026, BCP Investment Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Company and each purchaser named therein (the “Purchasers”), in connection with the issuance and sale of $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 7.50% notes due 2029 (the “Notes”), pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-283443), as amended, which was declared effective on February 10, 2025. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to repay an aggregate principal amount of $40.0 million of the LRFC 5.25% fixed-rate notes due 2026 and to pay down other indebtedness.

In conjunction therewith, the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (the “Trustee”) entered into a Sixth Supplemental Indenture relating to the Notes (the “Supplemental Indenture”), which supplements that certain Base Indenture, dated as of October 10, 2012 (as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Base Indenture” and, together with the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”).

The Notes will mature on September 24, 2029. The Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at the Company’s option at any time or from time to time prior to April 24, 2029 at par value plus a “make-whole” premium calculated in accordance with the terms under “optional redemption” in the Indenture and at par value on April 24, 2029 or thereafter.

The Notes bear interest at the rate of 7.50% per year, payable semi-annually on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing on April 30, 2026. The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company that rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes, rank pari passu with all existing and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company, rank effectively junior to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness (including unsecured indebtedness that the Company later secures) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and rank structurally junior to all existing and future indebtedness (including trade payables) incurred by the Company’s subsidiaries, financing vehicles or similar facilities.

The Indenture contains certain covenants, including covenants requiring the Company to comply with the asset coverage requirements of Sections 18(a)(1)(A) and 18(a)(1)(B) as modified by Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, whether or not it is subject to those requirements, and to provide financial information to the holders of the Notes and the Trustee if the Company is no longer subject to the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Additionally, the Company has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a rating of the Notes from a rating agency, as defined in the Indenture, as long as the Notes are outstanding. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture.
