**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

WhiteHorse Finance, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, the "Company", which may also be referred to as "we", "us" or "our"), is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (the "Amendment") to amend its original Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 7, 2025 (the "Original Form 10-K"). As previously disclosed in Part I, Item 4 of the Company's Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025, which was filed with the SEC on May 12, 2025, for the year ended December 31, 2024, it met the threshold to be an accelerated filer and did not correctly determine that fact. Based on this failure to correctly identify our filing status for 2024, we did not obtain or file an attestation report by Crowe LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm ("Crowe"), with respect to our internal control over financial reporting in the Original Form 10-K as required by Item 308(b) of Regulation S-K. The Amendment is being filed solely to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· amend the cover page of the Original Form 10-K to state that we are an accelerated filer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· amend and restate Part II, Item 8 of the Original Form 10-K to include Crowe's Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, which includes an opinion on the Company's financial statements, as defined in their report, as of December 31, 2024 and for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024 and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· amend and restate Part II, Item 9A of the Original Form 10-K to update (i) management's evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures in paragraph (a) to provide that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, and (ii) management's report on internal control over financial reporting in paragraph (b) to state that Crowe has issued a report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· file new Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as exhibits to this Amendment under Item 15 of Part IV hereof, pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and file new consents issued by Crowe related to Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2.

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Form 10-K. This Amendment does not reflect subsequent events that may have occurred after the original filing date of the Original Form 10-K or modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Form 10-K, except as required to reflect the revisions discussed above. Among other things, forward-looking statements made in the Original Form 10-K have not been revised to reflect events that occurred or facts that became known to us after filing of the Original Form 10-K, and such forward-looking statements should be read in their historical context. Furthermore, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and with our subsequent filings with the SEC.

#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Shareholders and the Board of Directors

of WhiteHorse Finance, Inc.

Miami, Florida

**Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedules of investments, of WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in net assets, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2024 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by COSO.

**Basis for Opinions**

The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. These procedures include confirmation of investments owned as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, by correspondence with the custodian, loan agent, borrower and other auditing procedures where replies were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

**Critical Audit Matter**

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

*Valuation of Level 3 Investments*

As described in Notes 1, 2, 4 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company invests in senior secured loans, including first lien and second lien facilities, and may make investments at other levels of an investee's capital structure, including mezzanine loans or equity investments, and may receive warrants to purchase common stock in connection with its debt investments. With few exceptions, these investments are classified as Level 3 investments. Level 3 investments represent approximately $619.5 million of the $642.2 million of investments held as of December 31, 2024. Management determines the fair value of the Company's Level 3 investments by applying the methodologies outlined in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, using significant unobservable inputs and assumptions. Determining the fair value of these investments requires management to make judgments about the valuation methodologies to apply (i.e., market approach or income approach) and significant unobservable inputs and assumptions including, among others, discount rates, market quotes, and exit multiples.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

We identified the valuation of Level 3 investments as a critical audit matter given the significant judgments made by management to estimate the fair value of certain debt and equity positions. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and extensive audit effort, including the involvement of auditor employed valuation specialists, who possess specialized skill and knowledge, to evaluate the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies and significant unobservable inputs and assumptions.

Our audit procedures related to the valuation of Level 3 investments included, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Obtaining an understanding, evaluating the design, and testing the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company ' s investment valuation process, including those over the valuation methodologies and significant unobservable inputs and assumptions applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Selecting a sample of investments and, with assistance of auditor employed valuation specialists, evaluating the appropriateness of the methodology applied and reasonableness of significant unobservable inputs and assumptions, including comparable company multiples and discount rates. In several instances we developed independent fair value estimates which we compared against management ' s conclusion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Evaluating subsequent events, retrospective review, and other available information, considering whether this information corroborated or contradicted the Company ' s conclusions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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"), provide collateral for the Company's credit facility, and are domiciled in the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The investments bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("CORRA"), the Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA"), or the U.S. Prime Rate ("Prime"), all of which may reset monthly, quarterly or semiannually.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 80.7% of total assets as of the date of the consolidated schedule of investments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) Investment is a non-controlled/affiliate investment as defined by the 1940 Act. See Note 4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) The investment has an unfunded commitment in addition to any amounts presented in the consolidated schedule of investments as of December 31, 2024. See Note 8.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) Security is perpetual with no defined maturity date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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 224.4% of the Company's net assets or 94.9% of the Company's total assets, are subject to legal restrictions on sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) The fair value of each investment was determined using significant unobservable inputs. See Note 5.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) The investment was comprised of two contracts, which were indexed to Prime and a different base rate, SOFR, SONIA or CORRA.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) Investment is a controlled affiliate investment as defined by the 1940 Act. See Note 4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The investments bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR" or "S"), the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate ("CDOR" or "C"), the Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA"), or the U.S. Prime Rate ("Prime" or "P") which may reset monthly, quarterly or semiannually.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(14) Investment is a controlled affiliate investment as defined by the 1940 Act. See Note 4.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

**NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION**

WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. ("WhiteHorse Finance" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). In addition, for tax purposes, WhiteHorse Finance elected to be treated as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). WhiteHorse Finance's common stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "WHF."

The Company's investment objective is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns primarily by originating and investing in senior secured loans, including first lien and second lien facilities, to performing lower middle market companies across a broad range of industries that typically are based on a floating interest such as SOFR plus a spread and typically have a term of three to six years. While the Company focuses principally on originating senior secured loans to lower middle market companies, it may also opportunistically make investments at other levels of a company's capital structure, including mezzanine loans or equity interests and may receive warrants to purchase common stock in connection with its debt investments.

WhiteHorse Finance's investment activities are managed by H.I.G. WhiteHorse Advisers, LLC ("WhiteHorse Advisers" or the "Investment Adviser"). H.I.G. WhiteHorse Administration, LLC ("WhiteHorse Administration" or the "Administrator") provides administrative services necessary for the Company to operate.

Engaging in commodity interest transactions such as swap transactions or futures contracts for the Company may cause WhiteHorse Advisers to fall within the definition of "commodity pool operator" under the Commodity Exchange Act (the "CEA") and related regulations promulgated by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"). On January 23, 2020, WhiteHorse Advisers claimed an exclusion from the definition of the term "commodity pool operator" under the CEA and the CFTC regulations in connection with its management of the Company (the "Exclusion") and, therefore, WhiteHorse Advisers is not subject to CFTC registration or regulation under the CEA as a commodity pool operator with respect to its management of the Company. WhiteHorse Advisers has affirmed the Exclusion on January 14, 2025 and intends to continue to affirm the Exclusion on an annual basis.

#### NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and include the accounts of WhiteHorse Finance and its wholly owned subsidiaries, WhiteHorse Finance Credit I, LLC ("WhiteHorse Credit"), and its subsidiary WhiteHorse Finance (CA), LLC ("WhiteHorse California"), WHF PMA Holdco Blocker, LLC, WHF American Craft Blocker, LLC, WhiteHorse RCKC Holdings, LLC, WhiteHorse Finance Holdings, LLC and WhiteHorse Finance CLO I, LLC. The Company meets the definition of an investment company under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, *Financial Services - Investment Companies*, and therefore applies the accounting and reporting guidance discussed therein to its consolidated financial statements. The classifications included in the consolidated schedule of investments represent, in management's opinion, as to the most meaningful presentation of the Company's investment portfolio. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Additionally, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial results as of and for the periods presented.

Principles of Consolidation: Under the investment company rules and regulations pursuant to ASC Topic 946, WhiteHorse Finance is precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company. As provided under ASC Topic 946, WhiteHorse Finance generally consolidates any investment company when it owns 100% of its

partners' or members' capital or equity units. The Company does not consolidate its investment in STRS JV or any of its controlled affiliate investments. See further description in Note 4.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments: The Company determines the fair value of its financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820, *Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures*. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Company has categorized its financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant who holds the financial instrument. Therefore, when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

The Company values its investments in accordance with the 1940 Act and Rule 2a-5 thereunder, which sets forth the requirements for determining fair value in good faith. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the board of directors has designated the Investment Adviser to determine the fair value of the Company's investments. The board of directors oversees the Investment Adviser's performance of its valuation responsibilities, and in support of this oversight, the Investment Adviser provides periodic reports to the Company's board of directors related to the fair valuation process. The Investment Adviser carries out its responsibilities as valuation designee primarily through its valuation committee (the "Valuation Committee"), assisted by third-party valuation firms, administrative personnel, and other service providers, as appropriate. The Valuation Committee consists of a number of representatives from different functions of the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser conducts the fair valuation process on a quarterly basis, subject to the oversight of the Company's board of directors through the audit committee, using consistently applied valuation procedures. In accordance with the Company's valuation procedures, the Investment Adviser performs periodic testing of the appropriateness and accuracy of fair value methodologies, and has established a process for approving, monitoring, and evaluating independent pricing service providers. Effective September 8, 2022, the board of directors designated the Investment Adviser as the Company's valuation designee.

Investments that are not publicly traded or for which market prices are not readily available will be valued based on the input of the Investment Adviser and independent third-party valuation firms engaged to review Company investments. These external reviews are used by the Company's Investment Adviser, subject to the oversight of the board of directors, to review the Company's internal valuation of investments during the year.

Investment Transactions: The Company records investment transactions on a trade date basis. These transactions may settle subsequent to the trade date depending on the transaction type. Certain expenses related to legal and tax consultation, due diligence, rating fees, valuation expenses and independent collateral appraisals may arise when the Company makes certain investments. These expenses are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as they are incurred.

Foreign currency translation: The Company's books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, fair value of investments, interest receivable, and other assets and liabilities — at the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) purchases and sales of investments, income and expenses — at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although net assets and fair values are presented based on the applicable foreign exchange rates described above, the Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. Fluctuations arising from the translation of assets other than investments and liabilities are included with the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies on the consolidated statements of operations.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices to be more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.

Revenue Recognition: The Company's revenue recognition policies are as follows:

*Sales*: Realized gains or losses on the sales of investments are calculated by using the specific identification method.

*Investment Income*: Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. The Company may also receive closing, commitment, prepayment, amendment and other fees from portfolio companies in the ordinary course of business.

Dividend income is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.

Closing fees associated with investments in portfolio companies are deferred and recognized as interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any unamortized loan closing fees are recorded as part of interest income. Commitment fees are based upon the undrawn portion committed by the Company and are recorded as interest income on an accrual basis. Prepayment, amendment and other fees are recognized when earned, generally when such fees are receivable, and are included in fee income on the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company may invest in loans that contain a PIK interest rate provision. PIK interest is accrued at the contractual rates and added to loan principal on the reset dates to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected.

*Non-accrual loans*: Loans are placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. The Company may conclude that non-accrual status is not required if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management's judgment, are likely to remain current.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash, deposits with financial institutions, and short-term liquid investments in money market funds with original maturities of three months or less.

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents: Restricted cash and cash equivalents include amounts that are collected and held by the trustee appointed as custodian of the assets securing the Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6). Restricted cash is held by the trustee for the payment of interest expense and principal on the outstanding borrowings or reinvestment into new assets. Restricted cash that represents interest or fee income is transferred to unrestricted cash accounts by the trustee generally once a quarter after the payment of operating expenses and amounts due under the Credit Facility.

Offering Costs: The Company may incur legal, accounting, regulatory, investment banking and other costs in relation to equity offerings. Offering costs are deferred and charged against paid-in capital in excess of par on completion of the related offering.

Deferred Financing Costs: Deferred financing costs represent fees and other direct incremental costs incurred in connection with the Company's borrowings. These amounts are amortized and are included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations over the estimated life of the borrowings. Deferred financing costs are presented in the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability.

Income Taxes: The Company elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain its status as a RIC, among other requirements, the Company is required to distribute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to its stockholders each taxable year generally of an amount at least equal to 90% of the sum of ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. In addition, the Company will incur a nondeductible excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which (1) 98% of ordinary income for the calendar year (taking into account certain deferrals and elections), (2) 98.2% of capital gains in excess of capital losses, adjusted for certain ordinary losses, for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year and (3) any ordinary income and capital gain income for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Company incurred no U.S. federal income tax exceed distributions for the year. The Company accrues estimated excise tax on the amount, if any, that estimated taxable income is expected to exceed the level of stockholder distributions described above.

The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statement is the largest benefit or expense that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Any tax positions not deemed to satisfy the more-likely-than-not threshold are reversed and recorded as tax benefit or tax expense, as appropriate, in the current year. Management has analyzed the Company's tax positions, and the Company has concluded that the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits or unrecognized tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Penalties or interest that may be assessed related to any income taxes would be classified as general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company had no amounts accrued for interest or penalties as of December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. The Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next twelve months. The Company's tax returns are subject to examination by federal, state and local taxing authorities. Because many types of transactions are susceptible to varying interpretations under U.S. federal and state income tax laws and regulations, the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements may be subject to change at a later date by the respective taxing authorities. Tax returns for each of the federal tax years since 2020 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Quarterly distribution payments are determined by the Company's board of directors and are paid from taxable earnings estimated by management and may include a return of capital and/or capital gains. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

The Company maintains an "opt out" dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP") for common stockholders. As a result, if the Company declares a distribution or other dividend, stockholders' cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock, unless they specifically "opt out" of the DRIP so as to receive cash distributions.

Earnings per Share: The Company calculates earnings per share as earnings available to stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

Risks and Uncertainties: In the normal course of business, the Company generally encounters two significant types of economic risks including credit and market. Credit risk is the risk of default on the Company's investments that result from an issuer's, borrower's or derivative counterparty's inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk reflects changes in the value of investments due to changes in interest rates, spreads or other market factors, including the value of the collateral underlying investments held by the Company. Management believes that the carrying value of the Company's investments are fairly stated, taking into consideration these risks along with estimated collateral values, payment histories and other market information.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified. These reclassifications had no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as previously reported.

Segment Reporting: In accordance with ASC Topic 280, *Segment Reporting*, or ASC 280, the Company has determined that it has a single operating and reporting segment. As a result, the Company's segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Company does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures," or ASU 2023-07. ASU 2023-07 enhances the disclosures required for reportable segments on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective on a retrospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. Management has adopted ASU 2023-07 effective December 31, 2024 and application of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. See Note 13 for more information on the adoption of ASU 2023-07.

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires public business entities to disclose, in interim and annual reporting periods, additional information about certain expenses in the notes to financial statements. The objective of this guidance is to enhance transparency and comparability by providing more detailed disaggregation of expenses presented in the income statement. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements.

#### NOTE 3 - FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to facilitate settlement of purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies and to economically hedge the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company's investments denominated in foreign currencies. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. These contracts are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the contract forward exchange rate and the forward market exchange rate on the last day of the period presented as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses are recognized when forward contracts are settled. Risks arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with well-known counterparties.

The Company utilizes forward foreign currency exchange contracts to protect itself against fluctuations in exchange rates. The Company may choose to renew contracts quarterly unless otherwise settled by the Company or the counterparty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Except as noted, all investments provide collateral for the STRS JV Credit Facility and are domiciled in the United States.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) The investments bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference SOFR, CDOR, SONIA, Prime, EurIBOR, which resets monthly, quarterly or semiannually.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The interest rate is the "all-in-rate" including the current index and spread, the fixed rate, and the PIK interest rate, as the case may be.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Except as otherwise noted, all of the STRS JV's portfolio company investments, which as of the date of the portfolio represented 852.3% of STRS JV's members' equity or 95.4% of STRS JV's total assets, are subject to legal restrictions on sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) The fair value of each investment was determined using significant unobservable inputs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) The investment or a portion of the investment does not provide collateral for the STRS JV Credit Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(7) The issuer is domiciled in Canada.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(8) Principal amount is denominated in GBP and the issuer is domiciled in the United Kingdom.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(9) Principal amount is denominated in Euros.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(10) Principal amount is denominated in CAD.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(11) The investment was comprised of two contracts, which were indexed to Prime and a different base rate, SOFR, SONIA or CDOR. The Floor, Spread Above Index and Interest Rate presented represent the weighted average of both contracts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(12) The rate shown is the annualized seven-day yield as of December 31, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(13) Investment is structured as a unitranche loan in which the STRS JV 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.

#### NOTE 5 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

*Level 1:* Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active public markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

*Level 2:* Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

*Level 3:* Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity's own assumptions about what market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, a financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the financial instrument.

A review of the fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. Reclassifications impacting Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are reported as transfers in or out of the Level 3 category as of the beginning of the quarter in which the reclassifications occur. During the year ended December 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, there were no changes in the observability of valuation inputs that would have resulted in a reclassification of assets between any levels.

Fair value for each investment is derived using a combination of valuation methodologies that, in the judgment of the Investment Committee are most relevant to such investment, including, without limitation, being based on one or more of the following: (i) market prices obtained from market makers for which the Investment Committee has deemed there to be enough breadth (number of quotes) and depth (firm bids) to be indicative of fair value, (ii) the price paid or realized in a completed transaction or binding offer received in an arm's-length transaction, (iii) a discounted cash flow analysis, (iv) the guideline public company method, (v) the similar transaction method or (vi) the option pricing method.

The following table presents investments (as shown on the consolidated schedule of investments) that were measured at fair value as of December 31, 2024:

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's investments are the discount rate, market quotes and exit multiples. An increase or decrease in the discount rate in isolation would result in significantly lower or higher fair value measurement, respectively. An increase or decrease in the market quote for an investment would in isolation result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurement, respectively. An increase or decrease in the exit multiple would in isolation result in significantly higher or lower fair value measurement, respectively. As the fair value of a debt investment diverges from par, which would generally be the case for non-accrual loans, the fair value measurement of that investment is more susceptible to volatility from changes in exit multiples as a significant unobservable input.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Unobservable inputs were weighted by the relative fair value of the investments.

Valuation of investments may be determined by weighting various valuation techniques. Significant judgment is required in selecting the assumptions used to determine the fair values of these investments. The valuation methods selected for a particular investment are based on the circumstances and on the sufficiency of data available to measure fair value. If more than one valuation method is used to measure fair value, the results are evaluated and weighted, as appropriate, considering the reasonableness of the range indicated by those results. A fair value measurement is the point within that range that is most representative of fair value in the circumstances.

The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the nature of the instrument, whether the instrument is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market and the current market conditions. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires a greater degree of judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for financial instruments classified as Level 3.

The determination of fair value using the selected methodologies takes into consideration a range of factors including the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public and private exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment, compliance with agreed upon terms and covenants, and assessment of credit ratings of an underlying borrower. These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment to be exercised.

As it relates to investments which do not have an active public market, there is no single standard for determining the estimated fair value. Valuations of privately held investments are inherently uncertain, and they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these investments existed.

In some cases, fair value for such investments is best expressed as a range of values derived utilizing different methodologies from which a single estimate may then be determined. Consequently, fair value for each investment may be derived using a combination of valuation methodologies that, in the judgment of the investment professionals, are most relevant to such investment. The selected valuation methodologies for a particular investment are consistently applied on each measurement date. However, a change in a valuation methodology or its application from one measurement date to another is possible if the change results in a measurement that is equally or more representative of fair value in the circumstances.

The following table presents the principal amount and fair value of the Company's borrowings as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6) approximates its carrying value presented net of unamortized debt issuances costs and issuance discount, net of accretion. The fair value of the Company's 5.375% private notes due 2025 (the "5.375% 2025 Notes"), the 5.375% private notes due 2026 (the "5.375% 2026 Notes"), the 4.00% notes due 2026 (the "4.000% 2026 Notes"), the 5.625% private notes due 2027 (the "5.625% 2027 Notes") and the 4.25% private notes due 2028 (the "4.250% 2028 Notes") were estimated using discounted future cash flows to the valuation date. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of the 7.875% 2028 Notes (the "7.875% 2028 Notes") approximates the principal amounts outstanding. As of December 31, 2023, the fair value of the 7.875% notes due 2028 were estimated using a of discounted future cash flows to the valuation date and the carrying value presented net of unamortized debt issuance costs and original issuance discount, net of accretion.

#### NOTE 6 – BORROWINGS
Historically, the 1940 Act has permitted the Company to issue "senior securities," including borrowing money from banks or other financial institutions, only in amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after such incurrence or issuance. In March 2018, the Small Business Credit Availability Act (the "SBCAA") was enacted into law. The SBCAA, amended the 1940 Act to reduce the asset coverage requirements applicable to business development companies from 200% to 150% so long as the business development company meets certain disclosure requirements and obtains certain approvals. At the Company's annual meeting of stockholders held on August 1, 2018, the Company's stockholders approved the reduced asset coverage ratio from 200% to 150%, such that the Company's maximum debt-to-equity ratio increased from a prior maximum of 1.0x (equivalent of $1 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity) to a maximum of 2.0x (equivalent to $2 of debt outstanding for each $1 of equity). As a result, the Company's asset coverage requirements applicable to senior securities decreased from 200% to 150%, effective August 2, 2018. As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company's asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 180.4% and 181.0%, respectively.

Total borrowings outstanding and available as of December 31, 2024, were as follows:

#### NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Agreement: WhiteHorse Advisers serves as the Company's investment adviser in accordance with the terms of an investment advisory agreement. On November 1, 2023, at an in-person meeting, the Company's board of directors approved an amended and restated investment advisory agreement, which was executed by the Company on February 22, 2024 (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"). The Company's board of directors most recently re-approved the Investment Advisory Agreement on October 30, 2024. Subject to the overall supervision of the Company's board of directors, WhiteHorse Advisers manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment management services to, the Company. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, WhiteHorse Advisers:

● determines the composition of the investment portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to the portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes;

● identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments the Company makes (including performing due diligence on the Company's prospective portfolio companies); and

In addition, WhiteHorse Advisers provides the Company with access to personnel and an Investment Committee. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company pays WhiteHorse Advisers a fee for investment management services consisting of a base management fee and an incentive fee. The Investment Advisory Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days' written notice to the other party.

*Base Management Fee*

Effective January 1, 2024, the base management fee is calculated at an annual rate equal to 1.75% based on the Company's consolidated gross assets (including cash and cash equivalents and assets purchased with borrowed funds); provided, however, the base management fee will be calculated at an annual rate equal to 1.25% of the Company's consolidated gross assets (including cash and cash equivalents and assets purchased with borrowed funds), that exceed the product of (i) 200% and (ii) the value of the Company's total net assets, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. Base management fees are payable quarterly in arrears and are appropriately pro-rated for any partial month or quarter.

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management fees payable on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities were $2,932 and $3,595, respectively.

*Performance-based Incentive Fee*

The performance-based incentive fee consists of two components that are independent of each other, except as provided by the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism discussed below.

The calculations of these two components have been structured to include a fee limitation such that no incentive fee will be paid to the investment adviser for any quarter if, after such payment, the cumulative incentive fees paid to the investment adviser for the period that includes the current fiscal quarter and the 11 full preceding fiscal quarters, referred to as the "Incentive Fee Look-back Period," would exceed 20.0% of the Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return (as defined below) during the Incentive Fee Look-back Period.

Each quarterly incentive fee is subject to the Incentive Fee Cap (as defined below) and a deferral mechanism through which the investment adviser may recap a portion of such deferred incentive fees, which is referred to together as the "Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism."

This limitation is accomplished by subjecting each incentive fee payable to a cap, which is referred to as the "Incentive Fee Cap." The Incentive Fee Cap in any quarter is equal to (a) 20.0% of Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return during the Incentive Fee Look-back Period less (b) cumulative incentive fees of any kind paid to the investment adviser during the Incentive Fee Look-back Period. To the extent the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value in any quarter, the Company will pay no incentive fee to its investment adviser in that quarter. The Company will only pay incentive fees to the extent allowed by the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism. To the extent that the payment of incentive fees is limited by the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism, the payment of such fees may be deferred and paid in subsequent quarters up to three years after their date of deferment, subject to applicable limitations included in the Investment Advisory Agreement. The deferral component of the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism may cause incentive fees that accrued during one fiscal quarter to be paid to the investment adviser at any time during the 11 full fiscal quarters following such initial full fiscal quarter.

The "Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Return" refers to the sum of (a) Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (as defined below) for each period during the Incentive Fee Look-back Period and (b) the sum of cumulative realized capital gains, cumulative realized capital losses, cumulative unrealized capital depreciation and cumulative unrealized capital appreciation during the applicable Incentive Fee Look-back Period.

The first component, which is income-based (the "Income Incentive Fee"), is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears and is determined based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter, subject to the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism. For this purpose, "Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income" means, in each case on a consolidated basis, interest income, distribution income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees received from

portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the Company's operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the administration agreement (the "Administration Agreement"), any interest expense and any dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

The operation of the first component of the incentive fee for each quarter is as follows:

● no incentive fee is payable to the Company's investment adviser in any calendar quarter in which Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not exceed the "Hurdle Rate" of 1.75% (7.00% annualized);

● 100% of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, if any, that exceeds the Hurdle Rate but is less than 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized) is payable to the Company's investment adviser. This portion of the Company's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (which exceeds the Hurdle Rate but is less than 2.1875%) is referred to as the "catch-up." The effect of the catch-up is that, if such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter, the investment adviser will receive 20% of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income as if the Hurdle Rate did not apply; and

● 20% of the amount of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, if any, that exceeds 2.1875% in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized) is payable to the Company's investment adviser (once the Hurdle Rate is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 20% of all Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income).

The portion of such incentive fee that is attributable to deferred interest (such as PIK interest or original issue discount) will be paid to the investment adviser, together with interest from the date of deferral to the date of payment, only if and to the extent that the Company actually receives such interest in cash, and any accrual will be reversed if and to the extent such interest is reversed in connection with any write-off or similar treatment of the investment giving rise to any deferred interest accrual. Any reversal of such amounts would reduce net income for the quarter by the net amount of the reversal (after taking into account the reversal of incentive fees payable) and would result in a reduction and possibly elimination of the incentive fees for such quarter.

There is no accumulation of amounts on the Hurdle Rate from quarter to quarter and, accordingly, there is no clawback of amounts previously paid if subsequent quarters are below the quarterly Hurdle Rate and there is no delay of payment if prior quarters are below the quarterly Hurdle Rate. Since the Hurdle Rate is fixed, as interest rates rise, it will be easier for the investment adviser to surpass the Hurdle Rate and receive an incentive fee based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income.

Net investment income used to calculate this component of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of consolidated gross assets used to calculate the base management fee. These calculations will be appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter.

The second component, the capital gains component of the incentive fee (the "Capital Gains Incentive Fee"), which is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), commenced on January 1, 2013, and equals 20% of cumulative aggregate realized capital gains from January 1 through the end of each calendar year, computed net of aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation through the end of each year (the "Capital Gains Incentive Fee Base"), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees and subject to the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism. If such amount is negative, then no capital gains incentive fee will be payable for the year. Additionally, if the Investment Advisory Agreement is terminated as of a date that is not a calendar year end, the termination date will be treated as though it were a calendar year end for purposes of calculating and paying the capital gains incentive fee. The capital gains component of the incentive fee is not subject to any minimum return to stockholders.

In accordance with GAAP, the Company is also required to include the aggregate unrealized capital appreciation on investments in the calculation and accrue a capital gains incentive fee on a quarterly basis if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. If the Capital Gains Incentive Fee Base, adjusted as required by GAAP to include unrealized capital appreciation, is positive at the end of a reporting period, then GAAP requires the Company to accrue a Capital Gains Incentive Fee equal to 20% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any Capital Gains Incentive Fees previously paid and Capital Gains Incentive Fees accrued under GAAP in all prior periods. If such amount is negative, then there is no accrual for such period. The

resulting accrual under GAAP in a given period may result in either additional expense (if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period) or a reversal of previously recorded expense (if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period). There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.

Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where it incurs a loss subject to the Incentive Fee Cap and Deferral Mechanism. For example, if the Company receives Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income in excess of the Hurdle Rate, it will pay the applicable Income Incentive Fee even after incurring a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses.

The following table provides a breakdown of the performance-based incentive fees for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022:

| **Total performance-based incentive fees** | $9309 | $10678 | $7059 |

---

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, incentive fees payable on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities were $17,848 and $10,470, respectively. As of both December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no incentive fees payable on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities for cumulative accruals of Capital Gains Incentive Fees under GAAP, including any amounts payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement as described above.

Under the Administration Agreement, WhiteHorse Administration also provides on the Company's behalf managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days' written notice to the other party. To the extent that WhiteHorse Administration outsources any of its functions, the Company will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without any profit to WhiteHorse Administration.

Substantially all the Company's payments of operating expenses to third parties were made by a related party, for which such third party received reimbursement from the Company.

During each of the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred allocated administrative service fees of $683.

#### NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments: In the normal course of business, the Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its borrowers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. The Company attempts to limit its credit risk by conducting extensive due diligence and obtaining collateral where appropriate.

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the balance of unfunded commitments to extend credit was $26,385 and $21,440, respectively. Commitments to extend credit consist principally of the unused portions of commitments that obligate the Company to extend credit, such as revolving credit arrangements or similar transactions. These commitments are often subject to financial or non-financial milestones and other conditions to borrow that must be achieved before the commitment can be drawn. In addition, the commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

#### (in thousands, except share and per share data)
As of both December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had commitments to fund equity interests and subordinated notes in STRS JV of $23,000 and $92,000, respectively, of which $1,896 and $7,584 were unfunded, respectively. The capital commitments cannot be drawn without an affirmative vote by both the Company's and STRS Ohio's representatives on STRS JV's board of managers.

Indemnification: In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. The Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not occurred. The Company expects the risk of any future obligation under these indemnifications to be remote.

Legal Proceedings: In the normal course of business, the Company, WhiteHorse Advisers and WhiteHorse Administrator may be subject to legal and regulatory proceedings that are generally incidental to its ongoing operations. While there can be no assurance of the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings, the Company does not believe any such disposition will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

#### NOTE 9 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
On March 31, 2023, the Company launched an "at-the-market" offering (the "ATM Program") by entering into an Equity Distribution Agreement with B.

#### NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES
The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and as a result must distribute substantially all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax has been made in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company distributed 100% of its taxable income in each of its fiscal and taxable years.

Distributions from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal tax regulations, which may differ from amounts determined in accordance with GAAP and those differences could be material. These book-to-tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. Reclassifications due to permanent book-tax differences have no impact on net assets. Such reclassifications have been reflected in the consolidated statements of changes in net assets.

The reconciliation of net increase in net assets resulting from operations to taxable income is as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year ended December 31,**  | **Year ended December 31,**  | **Year ended December 31,**  |
| <br>**($ in thousands)** | **2024** | **2023** | **2022** |
| Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations | $10851 | $20412 | $15683 |
| Change in net unrealized (appreciation) depreciation on investments and foreign currency | 8406 | 23247 | 7307 |
| Other book-to-tax differences | 18089 | 205 | 9498 |
| Taxable income before deductions for distributions | $37346 | $43864 | $32488 |

| Total distributions | $41489 | 100.0% | $36027 | 100.0% | $34150 | 100.0% |

---

The Company may make certain adjustments to the classification of stockholders' equity as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences. During the current fiscal year, permanent differences primarily due to nondeductible federal taxes resulted in a net increase in accumulated undistributed net investment income and a net decrease in paid-in capital.

There were no late year ordinary losses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

For tax purposes, net capital losses may be carried over to offset future capital gains, if any. The Company is permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred for an unlimited period, and such losses will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $22,269 and $8,123, respectively of long-term capital loss carryforwards. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $5,666 and zero, respectively of short-term capital loss carryforwards.

As of December 31, 2024, the cost of investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $711,668, resulting in net unrealized depreciation of $56,206. This is comprised of gross unrealized appreciation of $13,700 and gross unrealized depreciation of $69,906 on a tax basis. As of December 31, 2023, the cost of investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $751,117, resulting in net unrealized depreciation of $54,949. This is comprised of gross unrealized appreciation of $6,881 and gross unrealized depreciation of $61,830 on a tax basis.

The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria of ASC 740-10-25, *Income Taxes*, nor did the Company have any unrecognized tax benefits as of the period presented herein. Although the Company files federal and state tax returns, its major tax jurisdiction is federal. Tax returns for each of the federal tax years since 2020 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

#### NOTE 13 – SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company operates through a single reporting segment, with an investment strategy to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through direct origination of senior secured debt and select equity investments. The Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), who are the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, are responsible for assessing performance and allocating resources on behalf of the Company. The CODM assesses performance and makes operating decisions of the Company on a consolidated basis primarily based on the Company's net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations. In addition to various other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations as a key metric in implementing investment policy decisions and in evaluating the Company's distribution policy. As the Company operates as a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities as "total assets" and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

#### NOTE 14 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the consolidated financial statements are issued and other than the items discussed below, the Company has determined that there were no additional subsequent events requiring adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

On January 17, 2025, the terms of the Credit Facility were amended to, among other things, (i) reduce the applicable margins for interest rates to 2.25%, (ii) extend the non-call period to January 17, 2027, (iii) extend the reinvestment period to January 17, 2028, and (iv) extend the scheduled termination date to January 17, 2030.

#### PART II

#### Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

For the year ended December 31, 2024 (the end of the period covered by this report), we met the threshold to be an accelerated filer and did not correctly determine that fact. Based on this failure to correctly identify our filing status for 2024, we did not obtain or file an attestation report by Crowe LLP with respect to our internal control over financial reporting in our Original Form 10-K as required by Item 308(b) of Regulation S-K. After a review, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective with respect to our filing status determination. They also determined that such oversight did not evidence any generalized deficiency in our disclosure controls and procedures or a deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting. Our management has taken steps to remediate our disclosure controls and procedures as they pertain to this incident, and we do not expect any recurrence of the issue. Management also assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 as discussed in (b) and concluded WhiteHorse Finance's internal control over financial reporting was effective.

(b) Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

WhiteHorse Finance's internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions recorded necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Our policies and procedures also provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors of WhiteHorse Finance, and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness as to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of WhiteHorse Finance's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework* issued in 2013. Based on the assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.

WhiteHorse Finance's registered public accounting firm has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of WhiteHorse Finance's internal control over financial reporting. This report appears on page 5.

(c) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management has not identified any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
