The score is driven by attractive valuation (low P/E and strong dividend yield) and a constructive earnings narrative around NAV gains and AI-related holdings. Offsetting these positives are weaker quality signals in financial performance—especially negative TTM operating/free cash flow and historically volatile, valuation-driven results—while technicals are neutral-to-slightly supportive.

Positive Factors

AI Investment Strategy

The company's focus on AI investments positions it well for growth in a rapidly expanding sector, potentially leading to significant returns as AI technologies continue to evolve and gain market traction.

Anticipated IPOs

The upcoming IPOs of portfolio companies like CoreWeave signal potential substantial value realization for SuRo Capital, enhancing its investment returns and validating its investment strategy.

Successful Exits

Achieving high returns on exits like Oklo demonstrates SuRo Capital's ability to identify and capitalize on lucrative investment opportunities, supporting its long-term growth and financial health.

Negative Factors

High Debt Levels

The substantial debt levels pose leverage risks, potentially straining cash flow and limiting financial flexibility, which could impact the company's ability to invest in new opportunities or weather economic downturns.

Net Asset Value Decline

The decline in NAV indicates potential challenges in portfolio valuation and performance, which may affect investor confidence and the company's ability to attract new capital.

Volatile Revenue Growth

The volatility in revenue growth suggests instability in earnings, raising concerns about the sustainability of financial performance and the reliability of future cash flows.

SuRo Capital Business Overview & Revenue Model

Company Description

SuRo Capital Corp. is a business development company. The firm seeks to invest in growing, late stage, venture capital-backed private companies. SuRo Capital Corp. was founded in 2010 and is based in San Francisco, California.

How the Company Makes Money

SuRo Capital makes money primarily through the appreciation and eventual sale of its equity investments in private companies. The company invests in early-to-late-stage venture-backed companies with high growth potential. Revenue is generated when these portfolio companies go public through an IPO, are acquired, or experience significant valuation increases, allowing SuRo Capital to sell its shares at a profit. Additionally, the company may earn income through interest and dividends from debt securities and other investment instruments. Key factors contributing to its earnings include market conditions, the performance of its portfolio companies, and strategic investment decisions.

SuRo Capital Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Income statement shows a strong swing back to profitability in TTM, but results are highly volatile and revenue is small and declining. Balance sheet leverage appears manageable, yet book value/returns are valuation-sensitive. Cash flow is the key weakness with materially negative TTM operating cash flow and free cash flow, increasing reliance on investment realizations and market conditions.

Income Statement

TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) results show a sharp swing back to strong profitability (very high operating and net margins) versus a loss in 2024, indicating earnings power can rebound quickly. However, revenue is small and declining (TTM down ~15% after a slight decline in 2024), and the multi-year record is highly volatile with large profit years followed by large loss years—typical of investment/valuation-driven earnings and a key stability risk.

Balance Sheet

Leverage looks manageable with debt-to-equity around ~0.32 in TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) and equity representing a meaningful capital base, supporting balance-sheet flexibility. That said, equity and assets have moved materially over time, and returns on equity have swung from strongly positive (TTM ~36%) to negative (2024), highlighting valuation sensitivity and potential variability in book value.

Cash Flow

Cash generation is the main weak spot: TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) operating cash flow and free cash flow are both meaningfully negative (about -$21M) and free cash flow fell sharply versus the prior period. While the company has posted positive cash flow in some years, the history is inconsistent with several periods of sizable outflows, making liquidity and funding needs more dependent on market conditions and portfolio realizations.
