WhiteHorse Finance Forms Special Committee to Explore Strategic Alternatives

In a regulatory filing, WhiteHorse Finance announced that its board of directors has formed a special committee of independent directors to explore strategic alternatives for the company, which could include a sale or other corporate transaction. The Special Committee has not set a timetable for the conclusion of its review. The company said: "There can be no assurance that the review will result in the company pursuing any strategic transaction or, if it chooses to do so, that the company will consummate such transaction. The company does not intend to comment further regarding this review unless and until the Special Committee has approved a definitive course of action, the review has concluded, or it is otherwise determined that further disclosure is appropriate or required by law."

WhiteHorse Finance Reports NAV of $11.68 per Share

Reports NAV $11.68 per share, compared to $12.31 per share in 2024. Stuart Aronson, WhiteHorse Finance's CEO, commented, "During the fourth quarter, we delivered improved earnings and an increase in NAV, supported by disciplined portfolio management and share repurchases executed at a meaningful discount to book value. With the prudent reset of our base dividend last quarter, we are positioned to earn our distribution on a more consistent basis, while maintaining our established framework for supplemental distributions when incremental earnings are available. Our portfolio remains overwhelmingly first lien and we continue to actively manage underperforming credits with dedicated restructuring resources, while remaining selective in a highly competitive origination environment and focused on structure and credit quality."
