Oxford Lane's distribution policy is based primarily upon its estimates of the ultimate taxable earnings for each tax year, which are primarily (but not entirely) based upon the cash flows for each investment. The final taxable amounts cannot be known until the Company's tax return is filed, but the Company's experience has been that cash flows have historically represented a reasonable estimate of taxable earnings.
There have historically been significant differences between Oxford Lane's GAAP earnings and its taxable earnings and this is likely to continue, particularly related to CLO equity investments where the Company's taxable earnings are based upon distributable earnings while GAAP earnings are based upon an effective yield calculation. In general, the Company currently expects its near-term taxable earnings to continue to be higher than its reportable GAAP earnings.
The Company's Board of Directors has also declared the required monthly dividends on its Series 2017, Series 2023 and Series 2024 Term Preferred Shares (each, a "Share"), as follows:
In accordance with their terms, each of the Series 2017, Series 2023 and Series 2024 Shares will pay a monthly dividend at a fixed rate of 8.50%, 7.50% and 8.125%, respectively, of the $25.00 per share liquidation preference, or $2.125, $1.875 and $2.03125 per share per year, respectively. This fixed annual dividend rate is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances, but will not in any case be lower than 8.50%, 7.50% and 8.125% per year, respectively, for each of the Series 2017, Series 2023 and Series 2024 Shares.
The Company filed its annual report on Form N-CSR on May 27, 2015. The Company is also posting to its website a more detailed summary of its quarterly financials, as well as comparisons to prior quarters. This can be found at
