Hercules Capital, Inc. (NYSE: HTGC) (“Hercules” or the
“Company”), the largest and leading specialty finance provider to
innovative, venture, growth and established stage companies backed
by some of the leading and top-tier venture capital and select
private equity firms, is pleased to announce that its Board of
Directors has declared a fourth quarter 2023 total cash
distribution of $0.48 per share. The following shows the key dates
of the fourth quarter 2023 distribution payment:
Record Date
February 28, 2024
Payment Date
March 6, 2024
Hercules' Board of Directors maintains a variable distribution
policy with the objective of distributing four quarterly
distributions in an amount that approximates 90% to 100% of the
Company’s taxable quarterly income or potential annual income for a
particular year. In addition, during the year, the Company’s Board
of Directors may choose to pay additional supplemental
distributions, so that the Company may distribute approximately all
its annual taxable income in the year it was earned, or it can
elect to maintain the option to spill over the excess taxable
income into the coming year for future distribution payments.
The determination of the tax attributes of the Company's
distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company's
fiscal year based upon its taxable income for the full year and
distributions paid for the full year. Therefore, a determination
made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual
tax attributes of its distributions for a full year. Of the
distributions declared during the quarter ended December 31, 2023,
100% were distributions derived from the Company’s current and
accumulated earnings and profits. There can be no certainty to
stockholders that this determination is representative of the tax
attributes of the Company’s 2024 full year distributions to
stockholders.
Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 871(k), certain funds
generate “Qualified Interest Income” (QII) that may be exempt for
U.S. withholding tax on foreign accounts. A regulated investment
company (“RIC”) is permitted to designate distributions of QII as
exempt from U.S. withholding tax when paid to non-U.S. shareholders
with proper documentation.
The percentage of QII for distributions declared for the fourth
quarter ended December 31, 2023 on Hercules’ common stock is
81.44%.
