Ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions |
4.2x | 4.5x | 10.6x | 14.6x | 3.9x |
The calculation of the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions is above. Earnings consist of net income from continuing operations before fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest expense, amortization of deferred financing fees and the portion of operating lease expense that represents interest. The portion of operating lease expense that represents interest is calculated by dividing the amount of rent expense, allocated to us by our Adviser as part of the administration fee payable under the Advisory Agreement, by three.
