TPI Composites files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, plans delisting from Nasdaq
WhiteHorse Finance , Inc. (NASDAQ:WHF), a business development company with a market capitalization of $205 million and currently trading near its 52-week low of $8.82, reported that its wholly owned subsidiary, WhiteHorse Finance Credit I, LLC, entered into an amendment to its existing loan agreement with JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) Bank and other parties. The amendment, executed Friday, changes several terms of the Fifth Amended and Restated Loan Agreement.
According to a statement based on a recent SEC filing, the Eleventh Amendment to the loan agreement moves the "Optional Commitment Reduction Date" forward from July 17, 2025, to June 23, 2025. On this new date, the financing commitments available to WhiteHorse Credit and its lenders are reduced from $235 million to $100 million.
Additionally, the amendment removes WhiteHorse Credit’s right to prepay outstanding advances in whole or in part on the Optional Commitment Reduction Date. According to InvestingPro data, the company’s short-term obligations currently exceed its liquid assets, with a current ratio of 0.37, making these financing arrangements particularly significant for investors.

The latest amendment involves JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as lender and administrative agent; Citibank, N.A., as collateral agent and securities intermediary; WhiteHorse Finance, Inc., as portfolio manager; and Virtus Group LP, as collateral administrator.
