SSSS SuRo Capital Corporation

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 second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

“As we have previously mentioned, we remain incredibly enthusiastic about both our investment pipeline and our current portfolio as the IPO market strengthens and new opportunities at compelling valuations continue to come to light. We continue to actively execute on these opportunities. During the second quarter, we completed a $10.0 million investment in Canva, Inc., a leading design software and collaboration platform with over 170 million monthly users, and a $15.0 million investment in CW Opportunity 2 LP, an SPV invested in CoreWeave, Inc., an AI cloud computing provider offering a suite of NVIDIA GPUs on top of its fast and flexible infrastructure,” said Mark Klein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SuRo Capital.

“With these exciting new additions to our portfolio, and nearly $55.0 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 continued.

“As we have consistently demonstrated, SuRo Capital is committed to initiatives that enhance shareholder value, and we believe the market is currently undervaluing our portfolio. Given the discount our stock has traded at compared to net asset value per share, we believe our recently completed Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer was an efficient and accretive deployment of capital. As announced in the first quarter and executed during the second quarter, the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer resulted in the purchase of 2.0 million shares of common stock for $4.70 per share. Further, we continue to monitor leveraging the remaining $20.7 million authorized under our active Share Repurchase Program,” concluded Mr. Klein.

As previously reported, SuRo Capital’s net assets totaled approximately $181.7 million, or $7.17 per share, at March 31, 2024, and approximately $186.7 million, or $7.35 per share, at June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2024, SuRo Capital’s net asset value is estimated to be between $6.70 to $7.20 per share, based on presently available information.
