Exhibit 99.1
WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2021 Earnings Results and Declares Quarterly Distribution of $0.355 Per Share
NEW YORK, NY, May 10, 2021 – WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. (“WhiteHorse Finance” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: WHF) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. Additionally, the Company announced that its board of directors has declared a distribution of $0.355 per share with respect to the quarter ending June 30, 2021. The distribution will be payable on July 2, 2021 to stockholders of record as of June 18, 2021.
First Quarter 2021 Summary Highlights
| • | Net Asset Value of $314.3 million, or $15.27 per share |
| • | Investment portfolio(1) totaling $617.0 million |
| • | STRS JV investment portfolio totaling $185.7 million |
| • | Gross investment deployments(2) of $57.7 million for the first quarter, including new originations of $45.9 million and $11.8 million of fundings for add-ons to existing investments |
| • | Net investment income of $7.6 million, or $0.370 per share |
| • | Core net investment income(3) of $7.7 million, or $0.375 per share |
| • | First quarter distribution of $0.355 per share |
(1) Includes investments in WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund LLC (“STRS JV”), an unconsolidated joint venture, totaling $55.4 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.
Stuart Aronson, WhiteHorse Finance’s Chief Executive Officer commented, “We had a very active quarter in what is usually a seasonally slow period for transaction activities, successfully originating 5 first lien loans while having 10 complete realizations. This increased our allocation to first-lien senior secured loans to comprise 97 percent of our debt portfolio. Our leverage ratio decreased from the prior quarter-end due to the large realization volume, yet still within the preferrable range of above 1.0x. With the robust pipeline ahead in Q2, we hope to reach our target leverage again in a short amount of time with a strong portfolio under the current improving economic backdrop. We will remain prudent and stay true to our longstanding principles, which we believe drive our goal of enhancing shareholder value.”
Portfolio and Investment Activity
As of March 31, 2021, the fair value of WhiteHorse Finance’s investment portfolio was $617.0 million, compared with $690.7 million as of December 31, 2020. The portfolio at March 31, 2021 consisted of 90 positions across 62 companies with a weighted average effective yield of 9.6% on income-producing debt investments. The average debt investment size (excluding investments in STRS JV) was $7.1 million with the overall portfolio comprised of approximately 84.7% first lien secured loans, 2.4% second lien secured loans, 3.9% equity and 9.0% in investments in STRS JV. Almost all loans were substantially variable-rate investments (primarily indexed to the London Interbank Offered 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 March 31, 2021, WhiteHorse Finance made investments in five new portfolio companies totaling $45.9 million and added a total of $11.8 million to seven existing portfolio companies. Proceeds from sales and repayments totaled approximately $110.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, driven by ten full realizations including AG Kings Holdings Inc., Atlas Intermediate Holdings LLC, Oasis Legal Finance and Ribbon Communications Operating Company, Inc.
In addition to the transactions above, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, WhiteHorse Finance transferred assets comprised of four new portfolio companies totaling $28.9 million to STRS JV in exchange for a net investment in STRS JV of $4.3 million as well as cash proceeds of $24.6 million.
WHF STRS Ohio Senior Loan Fund LLC
As of March 31, 2021, STRS JV’s portfolio totaled $185.7 million, consisted of 22 portfolio companies and had a weighted average effective yield of 8.1% on its portfolio.
Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s net investment income was approximately $7.6 million, compared with approximately $6.1 million for the same periods in the prior year, representing an increase of approximately 24.6%. The increase in net investment income for the year-over-year period was primarily attributable to higher accelerated accretion income recognized due to higher repayment activity and higher investment income generated from the Company’s investment in STRS JV, partially offset by higher incentive fees accrued for the quarter ended March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, the Company’s investment in STRS JV was generating an annualized, gross investment yield of approximately 14.8%.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, core net investment income (as defined above) was $7.7 million, compared with $5.5 million for the same period in the prior year, representing an increase of approximately 40.0%.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, WhiteHorse Finance reported net realized and unrealized gains on investments and foreign currency transactions of $0.6 million. This compares with a net realized and unrealized loss on investments and foreign currency transactions of $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase for the year-over-year period was primarily attributable to unrealized gains generated on markups in the portfolio as a result of overall market stability and price recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to realized gains generated from sales in AG Kings Holdings Inc. and Vero Parent, Inc.
WhiteHorse Finance reported a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of approximately $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, which compares with a net decrease of $21.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
WhiteHorse Finance’s net asset value was $314.3 million, or $15.27 per share, as of March 31, 2021, as compared with $312.9 million, or $15.23 per share, as of December 31, 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2021, WhiteHorse Finance had cash and cash equivalents of $24.5 million, as compared with $15.9 million as of December 31, 2020, inclusive of restricted cash. As of March 31, 2021, the Company also had $70.4 million of undrawn capacity under its revolving credit facility.
Distributions
The Company’s board of directors has declared a distribution of $0.355 per share with respect to the quarter ending June 30, 2021. The distribution will be payable on July 2, 2021 to stockholders of record as of June 18, 2021.
On March 2, 2021, the Company declared a distribution of $0.355 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, consistent with distributions declared for the thirty-fourth consecutive quarter since the Company’s initial public offering. The distribution was paid on April 5, 2021 to stockholders of record as of March 26, 2021.
Distributions are paid from taxable earnings and may include return of capital and/or capital gains. The specific tax characteristics of the distributions will be reported to stockholders on Form 1099-DIV after the end of the calendar year and in the Company's periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

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 nor did the Company incur any costs with refinancing any of its indebtedness for the quarters ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net investment income

| (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 Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR” or “C”) or the U.S. Prime Rate as published by the Wall Street Journal (“Prime” or “P”). The one, three and six-month LIBOR were 0.1%, 0.2% and 0.2%, respectively, as of March 31, 2021. The Prime was 3.25% as of March 31, 2021. The CDOR was 0.4% as of March 31, 2021. |
| (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.

| (8) | The investment is on non-accrual status. |
| (9) | Security is perpetual with no defined maturity date. |
| (10) | Except as otherwise noted, all of the Company’s portfolio company investments, which as of the date of the consolidated schedule of investments represented 196% of the Company’s net assets or 92% of the Company’s total assets, are subject to legal restrictions on sales. |
| (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, L and P, respectively. The Spread Above Index and Interest Rate presented represent the weighted average of both contracts. |
| (13) | Principal amount is denominated 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 STRS JV, a joint venture, which invests primarily in senior secured first and second lien term loans. |
| (15) | In addition to the interest earned based on the stated interest rate of this security, the Company is entitled to receive an additional interest amount of 2.75% 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 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. |

| (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. |
