In addition, the Company’s board of directors has declared a distribution of $0.385<\/span> per share with respect to the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024<\/span>.

\n Stuart Aronson<\/span>, WhiteHorse Finance’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “While our fourth quarter results were impacted by specific challenges within our investment portfolio, we remain committed to optimizing outcomes for these specific credits. Despite these setbacks, the majority of our portfolio is stable and performing well.

Our rigorous underwriting standards and focus on credits with strong fundamentals ensure that we are well-positioned to navigate the current market dynamics and deliver value to our shareholders.”<\/p>\n

\n Forward-Looking Statements<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

This press release may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 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.<\/p>\n

(1) “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.
(2) Includes investments in WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund LLC (“STRS JV”), an unconsolidated joint venture, totaling $107.2 million<\/span>, at fair value.
(3) Based on total capital raised by H.I.G. Capital and affiliates.<\/p>\n

\n SCHEDULE 1<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

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 ended December 31, 2024<\/span> and December 31, 2023<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The following table provides a reconciliation of net investment income to core net investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2024<\/span> and December 31, 2023<\/span> (in thousands, except per share data):<\/p>\n
