Hercules Capital announced that its Board of Directors has approved a $50 million open market share repurchase program. This program replaces a $50 million repurchase program which expired February 23, 2016.

Under the program authorized by its Board of Directors, Hercules may repurchase shares of its common stock in the open market, including block purchases, at prices that may be above or below the net asset value as reported in its then most recently published financial statements. Hercules anticipates that the manner, timing, and amount of any share purchases will be determined by Hercules management based upon the evaluation of market conditions, stock price, and additional factors in accordance with regulatory requirements.

Hercules expects that the share repurchase program will be in effect until August 23, 2016, or until the approved dollar amount has been used to repurchase shares. Pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, Hercules is required to notify shareholders when such a program is initiated or implemented. The repurchase program does not require Hercules to acquire any specific number of shares and may be extended, modified, or discontinued at any time.

Hercules Capital, Inc. is a leading and largest specialty finance company focused on providing senior secured venture growth loans to high-growth, innovative venture capital-backed companies in a broadly diversified variety of technology, life sciences and sustainable and renewable technology industries. Since inception (December 2003), Hercules has committed more than $5.7 billion to over 335 companies and is the lender of choice for entrepreneurs and venture capital firms seeking growth capital financing.
