CHICAGO, April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Monroe Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: MRCC) (the “Company” or “MRCC”) today announced that the amount of its final distribution will be $0.60 per share, contingent upon the closing of each of the Company’s proposed asset sale (the “Asset Sale”) to Monroe Capital Income Plus Corporation (“MCIP”) and the Company’s proposed merger (the “Merger”) with and into Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (NASDAQ: HRZN) (“HRZN”). The conditional distribution payment date is expected to be on or around April 17, 2026.
The Company’s final aggregate distribution amount of $13.0 million will be sourced from a portion of the net proceeds expected to be received by MRCC in the Asset Sale. MRCC has no undistributed earnings or capital gains through the anticipated closing date of the Merger requiring distribution.
As previously disclosed, the Company’s final distribution will be paid to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 10, 2026. However, due to the contingent nature of the final distribution, Nasdaq has informed the Company that stockholders who sell their shares of MRCC common stock before and through the close of trading on the closing date of the Merger will also sell their entitlement to the final distribution to the respective purchaser(s) of the shares. The Company expects each of the Asset Sale and the Merger to close on April 14, 2026.
The Company’s dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) will not apply to the final distribution. As a result, all participants under the DRIP will receive the final distribution in cash and not in shares of MRCC common stock.
