Horizon Technology Finance (HRZN) showed a return to portfolio growth in Q4 2025 despite a year-over-year decline in net investment income. The company is currently focused on its anticipated merger with Monroe Capital Corporation (MRCC), which is expected to provide significant capital for larger venture lending transactions. While NAV per share decreased due to distributions exceeding NII, the company maintained a strong committed backlog for 2026.
Net Investment Income (NII) was $0.18 per share, impacted by lower prepayment activity compared to the prior year.
Net Asset Value (NAV) per share declined to $6.98 from $8.43 in the prior year period.
Total investment portfolio ended the year at $647.2 million with a committed backlog of $154 million.
Management declared monthly distributions of $0.06 per share for Q2 2026 to align with anticipated NII post-merger.
Management expects the anticipated merger with MRCC to create long-term value and enhance NII and NAV over time.
