WhiteHorse Finance, Inc. Financial Ratios 2020-2011 | WHF

Brief overview of WhiteHorse Finance, Inc.'s financial ratios

Current figures are compared with the company's own five-year history for 2014–2019.

Key multiples at the end of the period are P/E 9.29x (median 7.37x), P/B 0.89x (median 0.91x), P/CF 9.22x (median 8.18x). On average, multiples differ from their five-year medians by only +12.7%. Valuation is near its familiar historical range.

The inverse P/E implies an earnings yield of 10.8%. This is not a dividend yield, but current earnings relative to market price.

The latest available business-quality ratios are ROE 9.9%, ROA 4.9%, ROCE 5.1%. Efficiency ratios are restrained, with capital and assets producing modest returns.

High leverage is part of the financial-sector model, so valuation should be linked to capital, asset quality and ROE.

Overall assessment

WhiteHorse Finance, Inc.'s market valuation is near its own historical norm, while quality ratios provide no extreme signal.
