WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2018 Earnings Results
NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. ("WhiteHorse Finance" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: WHF) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.
Second Quarter 2018 Summary Highlights
- New investments of $71.2 million
- Net investment income of $4.6 million, or $0.224 per share
- Core net investment income of $6.8 million, or $0.331 per share(1)
- Second quarter distribution of $0.355 per share
|
(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) any excise or other income taxes related to such net realized gains and losses. 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, "Our second quarter results featured another strong increase in NAV, five originations, and a markup on our position in Aretec following news of its pending sale. Our last 15 originations have been first-lien, and our weighted average effective yield has remained at or near 12 percent, exhibiting high credit quality and attractive returns. Our pipeline remains strong and our disciplined approach to sourcing remains a constant, as does our focus on earning our dividend on an annualized basis. Collectively these results reflect the differentiating impact of our three-tiered H.I.G. sourcing architecture."
Portfolio and Investment Activity
As of June 30, 2018, the fair value of WhiteHorse Finance's investment portfolio was $511.4 million, compared with $467.7 million as of March 31, 2018. The portfolio at June 30, 2018 consisted of 52 positions across 36 companies with an average investment size of $9.8 million and a weighted average effective yield on income-producing investments of 12.0%, remaining relatively flat as compared to last quarter. The majority of the portfolio was comprised of senior secured loans, and these loans were substantially all variable-rate investments (primarily indexed to LIBOR), which should continue to position the portfolio well for a rising interest rate environment.
During the three months ended June 30, 2018, WhiteHorse Finance invested $71.2 million across five new portfolio companies. Gross proceeds from sales and repayments totaled $42.5 million for the quarter primarily driven by full repayment on two positions. The Company remained highly selective in deploying new investments.
Results of Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, net investment income was $4.6 million, compared with $6.9 million for the same period in the prior year, representing a decrease of approximately 33.3%. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, core net investment income, a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes capital gains incentive fee accruals, excise or other income taxes related to net realized gains and losses, and the associated costs of refinancing the Company's indebtedness, was $6.8 million, compared with $6.9 million for the same period in the prior year, representing a decrease of approximately 1.4%. The decrease in net investment income compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the $2.2 million accrual for capital gains incentive fee in the current period.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, WhiteHorse Finance reported net realized and unrealized gains on investments of $14.4 million. This compares with realized and unrealized gains on investments of $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in net realized and unrealized gains on investments was primarily attributable to the unrealized appreciation in the Company's equity investment in Aretec Group, Inc. as well as other favorable fair value adjustments on an aggregate basis.
WhiteHorse Finance reported a net increase in net assets of $19.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which compares with a net increase of $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017.
WhiteHorse Finance's net asset value was $305.3 million, or $14.87 per share, as of June 30, 2018, as compared with $293.5 million, or $14.30 per share, reported as of March 31, 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2018, WhiteHorse Finance had cash and cash equivalents of $18.6 million, as compared with $18.6 million as of March 31, 2018, inclusive of restricted cash. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $12.2 million of undrawn capacity under its revolving credit facility.
Distributions
On June 5, 2018, the Company declared a distribution of $0.355 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, consistent for the twenty-third consecutive quarter since the Company's IPO. The distribution was paid on July 3, 2018 to stockholders of record as of June 18, 2018.
Distributions are paid from taxable earnings and may include a 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.
Recent Developments
On July 10, 2018, the Company notified American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the trustee for its 6.50% senior notes due 2020 (the "Senior Notes"), of its election to redeem the $30 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes outstanding, and instructed the trustee to provide notice of such redemption to the holders of the Senior Notes in accordance with the terms of the indenture agreement under which the Senior Notes are issued. The Company expects the redemption to be completed on August 9, 2018. Following the redemption, none of the Senior Notes will remain outstanding, and they will be delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market.
On July 13, 2018, WhiteHorse Finance entered into an agreement governing the issuance of $30 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due 2023 (the "2023 Notes"), to qualified institutional investors in a private placement offering. The 2023 Notes have a fixed interest rate of 6.00% payable semiannually and are due on August 7, 2023, unless redeemed, purchased or prepaid prior to such date by the Company or its affiliates in accordance with the terms of the 2023 Notes. The closing of the transaction occurred on August 7, 2018. WhiteHorse Finance will use the net proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem all of its Senior Notes, as discussed above.
On August 1, 2018, the Company's stockholders approved the reduced asset coverage requirements applicable to business development companies. As a result, the Company's asset coverage ratio requirements applicable to senior securities decreased from 200% to 150%, effective August 2, 2018.

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 any excise or other income taxes related to such net realized gains and losses. There were no associated refinancing costs in connection with the Company's indebtedness and no excise or other income taxes related to net realized gains and losses for the quarters ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively. Additionally, the Company did not recognize any capital gains incentive fees for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net investment income to core net investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017 (in thousands, except per share data):

(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, or the U.S. Prime Rate as published by the Wall Street Journal ("Prime" or "P"). The one, three and six-month LIBOR were 2.1%, 2.3% and 2.5%, respectively, as of June 30, 2018. The Prime was 5.0% as of June 30, 2018. |
|
(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 81%, 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 June 30, 2018. |
|
(8) The investment is on non-accrual status. |
|
(9) The fair value of the investment was determined using observable inputs. |
|
(10) Except as otherwise noted, the fair value of each investment was determined using significant unobservable inputs. |
|
(11) 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. |
