These forward- looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current or prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. The following factors and factors listed under “Risk Factors” in this report and other documents Crescent Capital BDC, Inc. has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward- looking statements. The occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere in this report could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operation and financial position. The following factors are among those that may cause actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements: • Potential fluctuation in quarterly operating results • Potential impact of economic recessions or downturns • Adverse developments in the credit markets • Operation in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities • Regulations governing our operation as a business development company • Financing investments with borrowed money • Lack of liquidity in investments • Defaults by portfolio companies • Uncertainty as to the value of certain portfolio investments • Potential resignation of the Advisor and or the Administrator • Changes in interest rates may affect our cost of capital and net investment income • Potential adverse effects of price declines and illiquidity in the corporate debt markets • Risks associated with original issue discount (“OID”) and payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest income • Risks regarding distributions • Potential adverse effects of new or modified laws and regulations Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based upon are reasonable, some of those assumptions are based on the work of third parties and any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate; as a result, forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could prove to be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the SEC, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. The safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the 1934 Act, which preclude civil liability for certain forward-looking statements, do not apply to the forward-looking statements in this report because we are an investment company. See accompanying notes. 1 PART I In this Annual Report, except where the context suggests otherwise, the terms “CBDC,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “the Company” refer to Crescent Capital BDC, Inc.

  • Bank Loans Are Typically the Most Senior Issues, with All Secured and Unsecured Debt Classes, Preferred Equity and Equity Subordinate in the Capital Structure
    Dallas Police & Fire Pension System Bank Loan Manager Search May 2017 Rhett Humphreys, CFA, Partner Keith Stronkowsky, CFA, Sr. Consultant Taylor Furlong, Research Analyst – Traditional Assets Table Of Contents Tab Introduction and Disclosures 1 Firm and Product Summary 2 Performance 3 Profiles 4 Appendix 5 1 Introduction 2 Introduction to Asset Class Bank Loan managers invest primarily in senior secured loans, which are corporate debt instruments underwritten and syndicated by banks. Within the capital structure of a corporation, bank loans are typically the most senior issues, with all secured and unsecured debt classes, preferred equity and equity subordinate in the capital structure. Bank loans usually pay a floating rate coupon calculated as a spread over a reference rate, typically LIBOR(e.g. LIBOR + 4%). Loans are generally rated below investment grade and are issued by both large and small-cap corporations. Credit research and security selection are very important in managing a portfolio of bank loans. Managers add value in the asset class by avoiding defaulting bonds, by maximizing recovery rates in the event of a default, or by investing in securities that outperform the universe. Portfolios will be diversified across industries. Bank loans have some unique attributes that factor in to our selection process for managers. In addition to the standard criteria in our research process, we take into consideration the following: • Experience in dealing with bankruptcies and recovery scenarios, both from a legal perspective and markets perspective • Experienced investment professionals with good networking in the bank loan market. Bank loans are mostly traded in the private markets, thus making a manager’s ability to source deals important • Back office and administrative resources capable of dealing with the complexities of trading and settlement processes unique to bank loans For comparative purposes, the CS Leveraged Loan Index is profiled in this search book alongside manager performance.
