The firm’s primary objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation by making debt and equity investments in privately held middle-market companies. WhiteHorse Finance seeks to partner with established businesses across a range of industries, providing flexible financing solutions designed to support growth initiatives, acquisitions and recapitalizations. The company’s investment portfolio predominantly comprises senior secured loans, second-lien debt, subordinated debt and select equity interests. WhiteHorse Finance targets U.S. headquartered companies with EBITDA profiles typically exceeding $10 million, though it retains the flexibility to consider larger transactions. While the portfolio spans multiple sectors—such as healthcare, technology, business services and industrials—the firm places particular emphasis on businesses with recurring revenue streams and defensible market positions. Established in 2016 and commencing operations following its initial public offering in early 2017, WhiteHorse Finance is externally managed by PPMG Private Markets LLC, an affiliate of Ares Management Corporation. The investment team leverages Ares’ underwriting, portfolio monitoring and credit-management capabilities to identify underwriting opportunities and actively manage risk. Headquartered in Los Angeles, with additional support from Ares offices across North America and Europe, WhiteHorse Finance combines middle-market specialization with institutional-grade resources to deliver tailored financing solutions to its portfolio companies.AI Generated.
