Continues to Advance AI Strategy with Major New Investments

Net Asset Value of $6.73 Per Share as of September 30, 2024

NEW YORK, Nov. 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SuRo Capital Corp. (“SuRo Capital”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) (Nasdaq: SSSS) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Net assets totaled approximately $157.4 million, or $6.73 per share, at September 30, 2024, as compared to $6.94 per share at June 30, 2024 and $8.41 per share at September 30, 2023.

“Since inception, SuRo Capital has served as the public's gateway to venture capital, offering unique access to some of the world’s most innovative and sought-after private companies before they become publicly traded. Our portfolio spans high-growth sectors including AI infrastructure, emerging consumer brands, and exciting software solutions for both consumer and enterprise markets, among others,” said Mark Klein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SuRo Capital.

“This is an exceptionally promising time for our portfolio,” Mr. Klein continued. “Over the past five years, we have made it a priority to share our perspectives on evolving market cycles and trends. In 2020, we anticipated a significant increase in IPO activity and we strategically positioned our portfolio to capitalize on that potential. In 2021, we monetized over $258 million of our portfolio assets – including two substantial monetizations of Palantir and Coursera, each exceeding $100 million in net proceeds – and declared a total of $8.00 per share for over $212 million in total distributions. As market conditions later became overextended, we scaled back on new capital investments, while judiciously navigating the valuation gap between private and public markets. This year, we continued to execute on a disciplined approach to deploying capital, placing us in a strong position as we look forward.”

Mr. Klein then highlighted SuRo Capital’s recent investments, noting, “This year has marked one of our most active investment periods in the last decade. During the quarter, we made a $17.5 million investment in OpenAI (through ARK Type One Deep Ventures Fund LLC), one of the largest artificial intelligence developers in the world, and increased our position in CoreWeave, an AI cloud computing provider, through a $5.0 million secondary transaction. Subsequent to quarter-end, we further bolstered our AI infrastructure portfolio by investing $12.0 million in VAST (through IH10, LLC), a platform transforming productivity and data management in the AI-driven era, alongside an additional $5.0 million in CoreWeave through another secondary transaction.”

“If market conditions remain favorable, we believe the IPO market will re-open, providing substantial opportunities for several investments within our portfolio,” Mr. Klein concluded. “I am confident that our current positioning is as strong, if not stronger, than it was in 2020.”

Investment Portfolio as of September 30, 2024

Convertible Note Purchase Agreement

On August 6, 2024, SuRo Capital entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), by and between the Company and the purchaser identified therein (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which we may issue up to a maximum of $75.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.50% Convertible Notes due 2029 (the “Convertible Notes”). Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, on August 14, 2024 we issued and sold, and the Purchaser purchased, $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes (the “Initial Notes”). Under the Note Purchase Agreement, upon mutual agreement between the Company and the Purchaser, we may issue additional Convertible Notes for sale in subsequent offerings to the Purchaser (the “Additional Notes”), or issue additional notes with modified pricing terms (the “New Notes”), in the aggregate for both the Additional Notes and the New Notes, up to a maximum of $50.0 million in one or more private offerings.

Interest on the Convertible Notes will be paid quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30, and December 30, at a rate of 6.50% per year, beginning September 30, 2024. The Convertible Notes will mature on August 14, 2029, and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option on or after August 6, 2027 upon the fulfillment of certain conditions. The Convertible Notes will be convertible into shares of our common stock at the Purchaser's sole discretion at an initial conversion rate of 129.0323 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, subject to adjustments and limitations as provided in the Note Purchase Agreement.   The net proceeds from the offering of the Convertible Notes will be used to repay outstanding indebtedness, make investments in accordance with our investment objective and investment strategy, and for other general corporate purposes. The Note Purchase Agreement includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants by the Company.

Subsequent to quarter-end, pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, on October 9, 2024 we issued and sold, and the Purchaser purchased, $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Additional Notes. The Additional Notes are treated as a single series with the Initial Notes and have the same terms as the Initial Notes. The Additional Notes are fungible and rank equally with the Initial Notes. Upon issuance of the Additional Notes, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Notes became $30.0 million.

Note Repurchase Program

On August 6, 2024, SuRo Capital’s Board of Directors approved a discretionary note repurchase program (the “Note Repurchase Program”) which allows the Company to repurchase up to 46.67%, or $35.0 million in aggregate principal amount, of our 6.00% Notes due 2026 (the “6.00% Notes”) through open market purchases, including block purchases, in such manner as will comply with the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). As of September 30, 2024, we had repurchased 1,010,136 of the 6.00% Notes under the Note Repurchase Program.

Subsequent to quarter-end through November 7, 2024, we repurchased an additional 201,446 of the 6.00% Notes under the Note Repurchase Program. The aggregate principal dollar amount of 6.00% Notes that may yet be repurchased by SuRo Capital under the Note Repurchase Program is approximately $4.7 million.

Share Repurchase Program

On October 29, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an extension of, and a $4.3 million increase in the amount of shares that may be repurchased under, the Company's discretionary Share Repurchase Program until the earlier of (i) October 31, 2025 or (ii) the repurchase of $64.3 million in aggregate amount of the Company's common stock. The dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased by the Company under the Share Repurchase Program is approximately $25.0 million.

Since inception of the Share Repurchase Program in August 2017, SuRo Capital has repurchased over 6.0 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $39.3 million.  

Under the Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase its outstanding common stock in the open market, provided it complies with the prohibitions under its insider trading policies and procedures and the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the Exchange Act.

(1) Based on weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the relevant period.
(2) Total return based on market value is based upon the change in market price per share between the opening and ending market values per share in the period, adjusted for dividends and equity issuances. Total return based on net asset value is based upon the change in net asset value per share between the opening and ending net asset values per share in the period, adjusted for dividends and equity issuances.
(3) Financial highlights for periods of less than one year are annualized and the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets and net investment loss to average net assets are adjusted accordingly. Because the ratios are calculated for the Company’s common stock taken as a whole, an individual investor’s ratios may vary from these ratios.
