“We grew the size of our portfolio for the second consecutive quarter through a number of new, high-quality loans, while the NII of $0.27 we generated in the quarter contributed to our NII covering our regular monthly distributions for 2024,” said Robert D. Pomeroy, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Horizon. “We also further strengthened our balance sheet during the quarter, raising approximately $19 million through our ATM program and completing a private $20 million convertible notes offering, both of which provided us with additional capital to fuel our originations platform. Meanwhile, NAV per share was impacted in the fourth quarter by stressed investments, which we continue to actively manage and support in order to maximize their value. As we progress through 2025, we expect to grow our portfolio through new, high-quality venture debt investments while continuing to focus on improving our credit quality and seeking to increase our NAV.”
Fourth Quarter 2024 Operating Results
Total investment income for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $23.5 million, compared to $28.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to lower interest income on investments from the debt investment portfolio.
The Company’s dollar-weighted annualized yield on average debt investments for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was 14.9% and 16.8%, respectively. The Company calculates the dollar-weighted annualized yield on average debt investments for any period measured as (1) total investment income (excluding dividend income) during the period divided by (2) the average of the fair value of debt investments outstanding on (a) the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding the first day of the period and (b) the last day of each calendar month during the period. The dollar-weighted annualized yield on average debt investments is higher than what investors will realize because it does not reflect expenses or any sales load paid by investors.
Total expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 were $12.8 million, compared to $12.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a $0.6 million increase in interest expense.
Net investment income for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $10.4 million, or $0.27 per share, compared to $15.0 million, or $0.45 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, net realized loss on investments was $3.2 million, or $0.08 per share, compared to net realized loss on investments of $1.2 million, or $0.04 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, net unrealized depreciation on investments was $19.6 million, or $0.51 per share, compared to net unrealized depreciation on investments of $24.3 million, or $0.73 per share, for the prior-year period.
Full Year 2024 Operating Results
Total investment income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $99.9 million, compared to $113.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Horizon’s dollar-weighted annualized yield on average debt investments for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 was 15.6% and 16.6%, respectively.
For the full year ended December 31, 2024, net investment income was $47.8 million, or $1.32 per share, compared to net investment income of $61.4 million, or $1.98 per share, in the prior year.
For the full year ended December 31, 2024, net realized loss on investments was $34.6 million, or $0.96 per share, compared to net realized loss on investments of $29.7 million, or $0.97 per share, for the full year ended December 31, 2023.
For the full year ended December 31, 2024, net unrealized depreciation on investments was $18.8 million, or $0.52 per share, compared to net unrealized depreciation on investments of $48.8 million, or $1.57 per share, for the full year ended December 31, 2023.

As of December 31, 2024, September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Horizon’s loan portfolio had a weighted average credit rating of 3.1, with 4 being the highest credit quality rating and 3 being the rating for a standard level of risk.

A rating of 1 represents deteriorating credit quality and high degree of risk of loss of principal.
As of December 31, 2024, there were four debt investments with an internal credit rating of 1, with an aggregate cost of $44.8 million and an aggregate fair value of $10.5 million.

Spillover income includes any ordinary income and net capital gains from the preceding tax years that were not distributed during such tax years.
When declaring distributions, Horizon’s board of directors reviews estimates of taxable income available for distribution, which may differ from consolidated net income under generally accepted accounting principles due to (i) changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation, (ii) temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition, and (iii) the amount of spillover income carried over from a given year for distribution in the following year. The final determination of taxable income for each tax year, as well as the tax attributes for distributions in such tax year, will be made after the close of the tax year.
