Recent Developments

In February 2023, the Company, together with State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio, a public pension fund established under Ohio law (“STRS Ohio”), increased their capital commitments to their joint venture, WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund LLC (the “WHF STRS JV”), by $25 million. The increased commitment will be funded by an incremental $15 million investment from WhiteHorse Finance and an incremental $10 million investment from STRS Ohio bringing total capital commitments to the WHF STRS JV to $175 million.

Stuart Aronson, WhiteHorse Finance’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am pleased to report WhiteHorse recorded its highest quarterly Core NII since our IPO in 2012 due to the positive impact of an interest rate environment on our debt portfolio comprised of floating rate investments. While we marked down some assets during the quarter, largely due to market pricing, our portfolio companies are performing well against a challenging economic backdrop. The investments in our existing portfolio were underwritten at modest leverage levels and are generally well positioned to service our debt in a rising interest rate environment. Additionally, our portfolio remains overwhelmingly represented by non-cyclical or light cyclical borrowers. The current market environment offers exceptionally attractive terms, and we are being cautious in the face of a weakening economy and remain focused on credits with compelling risk return characteristics. As previously announced, WhiteHorse, together with STRS Ohio, have increased our capital commitments to our joint venture by $25 million, bringing total capital commitments to the JV to $175 million. We believe WhiteHorse’s equity investment in the joint venture provides attractive returns for shareholders and is particularly relevant given the current market backdrop. Given the joint venture’s return on equity, we look forward to utilizing the new capital commitment as we seek to increase our exposure to a highly accretive earnings stream. WhiteHorse is equipped to take advantage of the current lender friendly market conditions as our pipeline activity remains high, and our three-tier architecture continues to provide the BDC differentiated sourcing capabilities. The strength of the pipeline enables us to be meticulous in our deal selection and lead to earnings accretion and continued coverage of our dividend.”

Portfolio and Investment Activity

As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of WhiteHorse Finance’s investment portfolio was $760.2 million, compared with $819.2 million as of December 31, 2021. The portfolio as of December 31, 2022 consisted of 115 positions across 72 companies with a weighted average effective yield of 12.6% on income-producing debt investments. The average debt investment size (excluding investments in STRS JV (as defined below)) was $7.0 million with the overall portfolio comprised of approximately 81.3% first lien secured loans, 2.7% second lien secured loans, 2.8% equity and 13.2% in investments in STRS JV. Almost all loans were variable rate

investments (primarily indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate or Secured Overnight Financing Rate) with fixed rate securities representing only 0.4% of loans at fair value. Nearly all performing floating rate investments have interest rate floors.

During the three months ended December 31, 2022, WhiteHorse Finance made investments in six new portfolio companies for a total of $42.1 million, added a total of $7.7 million to existing portfolio companies, and made net fundings of $4.0 million to revolver loans. Proceeds from sales and repayments totaled approximately $40.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, driven by three full realizations in Escalon Services Inc., CHS Therapy, LLC and Access USA Shipping, LLC.

In addition to the transactions discussed above, during the three months ended December 31, 2022, WhiteHorse Finance transferred assets comprised of one new portfolio company totaling $8.0 million to STRS JV in exchange for cash proceeds.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, WhiteHorse Finance invested $166.6 million across 19 new portfolio companies. The Company also invested $54.4 million in existing portfolio companies. Proceeds from sales and repayments totaled approximately $183.3 million for the year.

In addition to the transactions above, during the year ended December 31, 2022, WhiteHorse Finance transferred assets totaling $108.5 million in exchange for a net investment in STRS JV of $25 million as well as cash proceeds of $83.5 million. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s investment in STRS JV was approximately $100.2 million, at fair value.

WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund LLC

As of December 31, 2022, STRS JV’s portfolio totaled $284.3 million, consisted of 28 portfolio companies and had a weighted average effective yield of 11.3% on its portfolio.

Results of Operations

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company’s net investment income was approximately $11.1 million and $37.3 million, compared with approximately $7.5 million and 28.8 million for the same periods in the prior year, representing an increase of approximately 48.0% and 29.5%, respectively. The increase in net investment income for the year-over-year period was primarily attributable to higher investment income from interest income and STRS JV due to larger portfolio sizes in both the Company and STRS JV and an increase in base rates. This was partially offset by an increase in interest expense, due to higher borrowing balance and base rates, and higher management fee due to growth in average assets as compared to the same period in the prior year. For the three months ended December 31, 2022, the Company’s investment in STRS JV generated an annualized, gross investment yield of approximately 15.5%.

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, core net investment income⁽³⁾ was $11.1 million and $35.5 million, or $0.476 per share and $1.526 per share, respectively, compared with $7.3 million and $29.7 million, or $0.322 per share and $1.405 per share, respectively, for the same periods in the prior year.

For the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, WhiteHorse Finance reported a net realized and unrealized loss on investments and foreign currency transactions of $12.3 million and $21.6 million, respectively. This compares with the three months and year ended December 31, 2021 net realized and unrealized loss on investments and foreign currency transactions of $4.3 million and a net realized and unrealized gain on investments and foreign currency transactions of $1.3 million, respectively. The decrease for the year-over-year period was primarily attributable to markdowns on the portfolio in the current quarter.

WhiteHorse Finance reported a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of approximately $15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which compares with a net increase of $3.1 million and $30.1 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively.

WhiteHorse Finance’s net asset value was $332.4 million, or $14.30 per share, as of December 31, 2022, compared with $343.0 million, or $14.76 per share, as of September 30, 2022. As of December 31, 2021, WhiteHorse Finance’s net asset value was $349.8 million, or $15.10 per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Statements other than statements of historical facts included in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements and are not guarantees of future performance or results and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those described from time to time in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statement made herein. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this press release.

(1) Includes investments in WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund LLC (“STRS JV”), an unconsolidated joint venture, totaling $100.2 million, at fair value.

(2) Excludes investments made in STRS JV.

(3) “Core net investment income” is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes that core net investment income provides useful information to investors and management because it reflects the Company’s financial performance excluding (i) the net impact of costs associated with the refinancing of the Company’s indebtedness, (ii) the accrual of the capital gains incentive fee attributable to net realized and unrealized gains and losses, and (iii) excise and other income taxes related to such net realized gains and losses (net of incentive fees). The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additional information on core net investment income and a reconciliation of core net investment income to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, net investment income, are set forth in Schedule 1 hereto.

(4) Based on total capital commitments managed by H.I.G. Capital and affiliates.

SCHEDULE 1

As a supplement to GAAP financial measures, the Company has provided information relating to core net investment income, which is a non-GAAP measure. This measure is provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net investment income determined in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Core net investment income represents net investment income adjusted to exclude the net impact of costs associated with the refinancing of the Company’s indebtedness, the accrual of the capital gains incentive fee attributable to net realized and unrealized gains and losses, and excise or other income taxes related to such net realized gains and losses (net of incentive fees). There were no excise or other income taxes related to net realized gains and losses for the quarters and years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

(1) Except as otherwise noted, all investments are non-controlled/non-affiliate investments as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and provide collateral for the Company’s credit facility.

(2) The investments bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR” or “L”), which resets monthly, quarterly or semiannually, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR” or “SF”), the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR” or “C”), the Sterling Overnight Index Average (“SONIA” or “S”), or the U.S. Prime Rate (“Prime” or “P”).

(3) The interest rate is the “all-in-rate” including the current index and spread, the fixed rate, and the payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest rate, as the case may be.

(4) The investment or a portion of the investment does not provide collateral for the Company’s credit facility.

(5) Not a qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of total assets. Qualifying assets represented 82.8% of total assets as of the date of the consolidated schedule of investments.

(6) Investment is a non-controlled/affiliate investment as defined by the 1940 Act.

(7) The investment has an unfunded commitment in addition to any amounts presented in the consolidated schedule of investments as of December 31, 2022.

(8) Preferred equity investment is a non-income producing security.

(11) The fair value of each investment was determined using significant unobservable inputs.

(12) The investment was comprised of two contracts, which were indexed to different base rates, either L or SF and P, respectively. The Floor, Spread Above Index and Interest Rate presented represent the weighted average of both contracts.

(13) Principal amount is non-USD denominated and is based in Canadian dollars.

(14) Investment is a controlled affiliate investment as defined by the 1940 Act. On January 14, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with State Teachers Retirement System of Ohio, a public pension fund established under Ohio law (“STRS Ohio”), to create WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund, LLC (“STRS JV”), a joint venture, which invests primarily in senior secured first and second lien term loans.

(15) Investment is structured as a unitranche loan in which the Company may receive additional interest on its “last out” tranche of the portfolio company’s senior term debt, which was previously syndicated into “first out” and “last out” tranches, whereby the “first out” tranche will have priority as to the “last out” tranche with respect to payments of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder.

(16) In addition to the interest earned based on the stated interest rate of this security, the Company is entitled to receive an additional interest in the amount of 3.50% on its “last out” tranche of the portfolio company’s senior term debt, which was previously syndicated into “first out” and “last out” tranches, whereby the “first out” tranche will have priority as to the “last out” tranche with respect to payments of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder.

(17) In addition to the interest earned based on the stated interest rate of this security, the Company is entitled to receive an additional interest in the amount of 3.00% on its “last out” tranche of the portfolio company’s senior term debt, which was previously syndicated into “first out” and “last out” tranches, whereby the “first out” tranche will have priority as to the “last out” tranche with respect to payments of principal, interest and any other amounts due thereunder.

(18) On October 1, 2020, as part of a restructuring agreement between the Company and Arcole Acquisition Corp, the Company’s investments in first lien secured term loans to Arcole Acquisition Corp were converted into common shares of Arcole Holding Corp.

(19) At the option of the issuer, interest can be paid in cash or cash and PIK. The issuer may elect to pay up to 2.00% PIK.

(20) On January 24, 2022, as part of a restructuring agreement between the Company and PlayMonster LLC, the Company’s first lien secured term loan and delayed draw loan investments to PlayMonster LLC were converted into a new first lien secured term loan, preferred stock and common stock of Playmonster Group LLC.

(21) Ownership of certain equity investments may occur through a holding company or partnership.

(22) Principal amount is non-USD denominated and is based in British pounds.

(23) Principal amount is non-USD denominated and is based in British pounds. At the option of the borrower, amounts borrowed under the delayed draw term loan commitment can be U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars or British pounds.

(24) Investment is structured with a PIK period beginning with the first interest payment date through December 20, 2023, whereby accrued interest due on the loan is capitalized and added to the unpaid principal balance of the loan.
