SuRo Capital Corp. Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2023 Preliminary Investment Portfolio Update

NEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SuRo Capital Corp. (“SuRo Capital”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) (Nasdaq: SSSS) today provided the following preliminary update on its investment portfolio for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

“The fourth quarter ended a year that included two wars, domestic and international bank failures, rampant inflation, and aggressive Federal Reserve intervention. These events led to a volatile stock market. While a handful of companies drove the stock market higher, a majority of stocks posted only modest gains. The combination of geopolitical uncertainty and bifurcated equity markets translated into declining values in the private markets, resulting in a significantly reduced level of primary capital raises,” said Mark Klein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SuRo Capital.

“Despite these challenging events and crosscurrents, as we move into the new year with over $90 million in investable capital, we remain steadfast in our belief that there continue to be high-quality opportunities available at attractive prices that allow us to be both opportunistic and judicious with the deployment of capital,” Mr. Klein concluded.

As previously reported, SuRo Capital’s net assets totaled approximately $212.0 million, or $8.41 per share, at September 30, 2023, and approximately $210.0 million, or $7.39 per share at December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2023, SuRo Capital’s net asset value is estimated to be between $7.85 to $8.35 per share.

As of December 31, 2023, there were 25,445,805 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding.

As of December 31, 2023, SuRo Capital held positions in 38 portfolio companies – 34 privately held and 4 publicly held, some of which may be subject to certain lock-up provisions.
