📋 What This Means for HTGC Shareholders

Hercules Capital, Inc. (HTGC) has a DilutionScore of 65/100, placing it in the High dilution risk tier.

Score as of July 14, 2026, updated from SEC EDGAR data.

Cash runway is a key watch item: HTGC has approximately 1 months of runway at current burn rate.
