Regulation FD Disclosure |
In its Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 2, 2018, Harvest Capital Credit Corporation (“HCC”) disclosed that on March 28, 2018, the board of directors of HCC appointed Joseph A. Jolson as the Chief Executive Officer of HCC, effective as of such date. Mr. Jolson will continue to the hold the position of Chairman of the board of directors of HCC. Mr. Jolson succeeds Richard P. Buckanavage, who stepped down from his positions as Chief Executive Officer and President of HCC on March 28, 2018, to assume the role of Managing Director - Head of Business Development, effective as of such date. The shares of common stock of HCC are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: HCAP). For more information regarding these changes see the HCC Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 2, 2018.
We do not expect that Mr. Jolson’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer of HCC will adversely affect Mr. Jolson’s roles as Chairman of the board and Chief Executive officer of JMP Group LLC.
