StHealth Capital Investment Corp. Tender Offer Price Indicates Losses for Investors 

The White Law Group continues to investigate potential securities claims involving StHealth Capital Investment Corp.   

StHealth Capital Investment Corporation (formerly known as Freedom Capital Corp and First Capital Investment Corp.) Is a business development company (BDC) that reportedly invests in private U.S. small- and middle-market companies.  

The BDC invested approximately $9.6 million in nine portfolio companies, as of September 2019.  STHealth reportedly filed a form D to raise additional capital from investors in 2021. According to filings with the SEC, the company has reportedly failed to file financial statements for the previous reporting period including Form 10-K and 10-Q.  

According to Alternative Liquidity Capital on August 21, 2022, the company announced an offer to purchase up to 130,000 shares in StHealth Capital Investment Corp at a price of $0.10 per share. (Alternative Liquidity Capital is a Delaware Limited Partnership and is not affiliated with STHealth.) 

According to Alternative Liquidity Capital, citing STHealth’s most recent 10-K filing in September 2021, the company had $2.6 million in gross assets, and with its only debt — accounts payables and accrued expenses– $2.2 million in net assets. Shares of the BDC were originally sold for $10 per share. 

BDCs, similar to non-traded REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts), pool investor money and use those funds as capital to invest in various businesses. The goal of a BDC is to invest in small and medium-sized businesses and help sustain and develop growth in those underlying businesses. When those businesses are profitable, the BDC can be a strong investment. Additionally, certain BDCs offer a desirable tax structure for investors.  

However, “middle-market loans” are basically highly leveraged loans to private equity backed companies and come with a large credit risk. When rising interest rates and inflation lead to a recessionary event BDCs, such as STHealth Capital Investment Corp., may take a big hit.

FINRA Lawsuits to Recover Investment Losses 

The White Law Group continues to investigate potential claims against the broker dealers that sold high risk BDC investments such as StHealth Capital Investment Corp to investors. The high commission structure of these products leads to the possibility that unscrupulous financial advisors will push these products unsuitably to maximize their own commissions.   

Broker dealers are required to perform adequate due diligence on any investment they recommend and to ensure that all recommendations are suitable for the investor. Recommendations should be appropriate in light of the investor’s age, risk tolerance, net worth, and investment experience. Broker dealers that fail to adequately disclose risks or make unsuitable investment recommendations can be held liable for investment losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
