HOUSTON, April 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kayne Anderson MLP/Midstream Investment Company (the “Company”) (NYSE: KYN) today provided a summary unaudited statement of assets and liabilities and announced its net asset value and asset coverage ratios under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) as of March 31, 2020.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s net assets were $556 million, and its net asset value per share was $4.39. As of the same date, the Company had $560 million of cash on its balance sheet, including cash it has received since month end for securities it has recently sold. It is the Company’s intention to comply with all applicable 1940 Act leverage tests as well as the covenants on its debt agreements and of its preferred stock. The Company plans to prudently use its cash balance to reduce leverage levels over the next month in a way that minimizes prepayment penalties and maximizes shareholder value.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act with respect to senior securities representing indebtedness (the “’40 Act Debt Test”) was 269% and the Company’s asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act with respect to total leverage (the “’40 Act Leverage Test”) was 164%. The Company is still in the process of determining what portion of its cash balance will be used to redeem debt and what portion will be used to redeem preferred stock. For illustrative purposes, assuming the Company uses $531 million to repay all of its outstanding indebtedness and the remainder of its cash to repay preferred stock, the pro forma coverage ratio for the ’40 Act Leverage Test is estimated to be 267%.
