The story

The firm was founded in 1987, when American businessman and investor Jerome Kohlberg Jr. resigned from Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. over differences in strategy. Kohlberg did not favor the larger buyouts, including Beatrice Companies in 1985 and Safeway in 1986, highly leveraged transactions or hostile takeovers being pursued increasingly by KKR. Instead, Kohlberg chose to return to his roots, acquiring smaller, middle-market companies, and in 1987 he formed Kohlberg & Company along with his son James, who at that time was a KKR executive. Their intent was to concentrate on transactions that could generate returns through revenue growth and operating improvements using only moderate leverage. Jerome Kohlberg retired from Kohlberg & Company in 1994.

Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Kohlberg & Company names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Mar 5, 2026: 72 risks under these headings, as written.14

  • Risks Related to Our Business and Structure
  • Ineffective internal controls could impact our business and operating results.
  • The Adviser and its affiliates, including our officers and some of our directors, face conflicts of interest caused by compensation arrangements with us and our affiliates, which could result in actions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.
  • We may be obligated to pay the Adviser incentive compensation even if it incurs a net loss due to a decline in the value of our portfolio.
  • There may be conflicts of interest related to obligations that the Adviser’s senior management and investment team has to other clients.
  • The time and resources that individuals employed by the Adviser devote to us may be diverted and we may face additional competition due to the fact that individuals employed by the Adviser are not prohibited from raising money for or managing other entities that make the same types of investments that we target.
  • Our base management and incentive fees may induce the Adviser to make speculative investments or to incur leverage.
  • The Adviser relies on key personnel, the loss of any of whom could impair its ability to successfully manage us.
  • The Adviser may retain additional consultants, advisors and/or operating partners to provide services to us, and such additional personnel will perform similar functions and duties for other organizations which may give rise to conflicts of interest.
  • The Adviser’s influence on conducting our operations gives it the ability to increase its fees, which may reduce the amount of cash flow available for distribution to our stockholders.
  • The Adviser’s liability is limited under the Advisory Agreement, and we are required to indemnify the Adviser against certain liabilities, which may lead the Adviser to act in a riskier manner on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account.
  • The Adviser is able to resign upon 60 days’ written notice, and we may not be able to find a suitable replacement within that time, resulting in a disruption in our operations that could adversely affect our financial condition, business and results of operations.
The other 61 risks
  • We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities.
  • If the Adviser is unable to source investments effectively, we may be unable to achieve our investment objectives and provide returns to stockholders.
  • We may have difficulty paying distributions required to maintain our RIC status if we recognize income before or without receiving cash equal to such income.
  • Any unrealized losses we experience on our loan portfolio may be an indication of future realized losses, which could reduce our resources available to make distributions.
  • We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly and annual operating results and credit spreads.
  • We are exposed to risks associated with changes in interest rates and spreads.
  • We may from time to time expand our business through acquisitions, which could disrupt our business and harm our financial condition.
  • We may invest through joint ventures, partnerships or other special purpose vehicles and our investments through these vehicles may entail greater risks, or risks that we otherwise would not incur, if we otherwise made such investments directly.
  • Our Board may change our investment objective, operating policies and strategies without prior notice or stockholder approval.
  • Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to, and the way in which we, raise additional capital.
  • The application of the risk retention rules under Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Act to CLOs may have broader effects on the CLO and loan markets in general, potentially resulting in fewer or less desirable investment opportunities for us.
  • Our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates is restricted.
  • A failure on our part to maintain our status as a BDC or the application of additional regulatory burdens would significantly reduce our operating flexibility.
  • Our business and operations could be negatively affected if we become subject to any securities litigation or stockholder activism, which could cause us to incur significant expense, hinder execution of investment strategy and impact our stock price.
  • We will be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes if we are unable to qualify as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.
  • Risks Associated with Our Use of Leverage
  • We borrow money, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and may increase the risk of investing in us.
  • Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and our ability to respond to changes in our business.
  • We may default under the Revolving Credit Facility, KeyBank Credit Facility, 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes, or future indebtedness or be unable to amend, repay or refinance any such facility or financing arrangement on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
  • Provisions in the Revolving Credit Facility or any other future borrowing facility may limit our discretion in operating our business.
  • We hold investments in a collateralized loan obligation vehicle, which investments are subject to a number of significant risks.
  • Because we intend to continue to distribute substantially all of our income and net realized capital gains to our stockholders, we will need additional capital to finance our growth.
  • Risks Associated with Our Information Technology Systems
  • Disruptions in current systems or difficulties in integrating new systems.
  • Internal and external cyber threats, as well as other disasters, affecting us or our third-party service providers could impair our ability to conduct business effectively.
  • Risks Related to Our Investments
  • Inflation may adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition of our portfolio companies.
  • Our investments may be risky, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
  • Our portfolio investments for which there is no readily available market, including our investment in our Joint Ventures and our investments in CLO Funds, are recorded at fair value. As a result, there is uncertainty as to the value of these investments.
  • We are a non-diversified investment company within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and therefore we may invest a significant portion of our assets in a relatively small number of issuers, which subjects us to a risk of significant loss if any of these issuers defaults on its obligations under any of its debt instruments or as a result of a downturn in the particular industry.
  • Defaults by our portfolio companies could harm our operating results.
  • When we are a debt or minority equity investor in a portfolio company, which generally is the case, we may not be in a position to control the entity, and its management may make decisions that could decrease the value of our investment.
  • We may have limited access to information about privately held companies in which we invest.
  • Prepayments of our debt investments by our portfolio companies could negatively impact our operating results.
  • Our portfolio companies may incur debt that ranks equal with, or senior to, our investments in such companies.
  • Second priority liens on collateral securing loans that we make to our portfolio companies may be subject to control by senior creditors with first priority liens. If there is a default, the value of the collateral may not be sufficient to repay in full both the first priority creditors and us.
  • There may be circumstances where our debt investments could be subordinated to claims of other creditors or we could be subject to lender liability claims.
  • Our investments in equity securities involve a substantial degree of risk.
  • The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business.
  • Our investments in foreign securities may involve significant risks in addition to the risks inherent in U.S. investments.
  • The disposition of our investments may result in contingent liabilities.
  • We may not receive any return on our investment in the CLO Funds in which we have invested.
  • Risks Related to Our Common Stock
  • We may not be able to pay distributions to our stockholders, our distributions may not grow over time, and a portion of distributions paid to our stockholders may be a return of capital.
  • Investing in shares of our common stock may involve an above average degree of risk.
  • Shares of closed-end investment companies, including BDCs, frequently trade at a discount to their net asset value, and we cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock will not decline below the net asset value of the stock.
  • Our share price may be volatile and may fluctuate substantially.
  • Certain provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could deter takeover attempts and have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.
  • Risks Related to Our Notes
  • The 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes and 2032 Convertible Notes are unsecured and therefore are effectively subordinated to any secured indebtedness we have currently incurred or may incur in the future and will rank pari passu with, or equal to, all outstanding and future unsecured indebtedness issued by us and our general liabilities (total liabilities, less debt).
  • The 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes and 2032 Convertible Notes are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.
  • There is no active trading market for the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes. If an active trading market for the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes does not develop , you may not be able to sell them.
  • A downgrade, suspension or withdrawal of the credit rating assigned by a rating agency to us or the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes, if any, or change in the debt markets could cause the liquidity or market value of the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes to decline significantly.
  • An increase in market interest rates could result in a decrease in the market value of the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes.
  • The indentures governing the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes and 2032 Convertible Notes contain limited protection for holders of the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes and 2032 Convertible Notes.
  • We may choose to redeem the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes when prevailing interest rates are relatively low.
  • We may not be able to repurchase the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes or 2032 Convertible Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event.
  • Risks Relating to Acquisitions
  • If we sell investments acquired as a result of our prior strategic acquisitions, it may result in capital gains and increase the incentive fees payable to the Adviser.
  • We may be unable to realize the benefits anticipated by our prior strategic acquisitions, including estimated cost savings, or it may take longer than anticipated to realize such benefits.
  • General Risk Factors
  • We, our Adviser, and our portfolio companies may maintain cash balances at financial institutions that exceed federally insured limits and may otherwise be materially affected by adverse developments affecting the financial services industry, such as actual events or concerns involving liquidity, defaults or non-performance by financial institutions or transactional counterparties.
  • Economic recessions or downturns could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and could impair the ability of our portfolio companies to repay loans.
  • Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability and we cannot predict when these conditions will occur. Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets in the United States and abroad, which may have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
  • Events outside of our control, including public health crises, could negatively affect our portfolio companies, our investment adviser and the results of our operations.
  • Global economic, political and market conditions, including downgrades of the U.S. credit rating, may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
  • The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and related sanctions have increased global political and economic uncertainty, which may have a material adverse impact on us and our portfolio companies.
  • Our businesses may be adversely affected by litigation and regulatory proceedings.
