Pomerantz LLP Investigates Claims Against Horizon Technology Finance Corporation: An In-depth Look
On April 1, 2025, Pomerantz LLP, a renowned securities law firm based in New York City, announced that it is investigating potential securities fraud claims on behalf of investors of Horizon Technology Finance Corporation (“Horizon” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HRZN). The investigation focuses on possible violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by the Company and its executives.
Background
Horizon Technology Finance Corporation is a business development company (BDC) that provides financing solutions to technology and growth-oriented companies. The Company’s investment objective is to maximize total return to its stockholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation.
The Investigation
The Pomerantz investigation stems from concerns regarding certain statements made by Horizon regarding its business, operations, and financial condition. Specifically, the law firm is looking into allegations that the Company may have misrepresented its financial performance and the risks associated with its investments.
Impact on Individual Investors
If the investigation uncovers evidence of securities fraud, it could potentially result in significant losses for individual investors who purchased Horizon stock between certain dates. These investors may be able to recover their losses through a securities class action lawsuit.
Global Implications
