On February 27, 2026, Hunterbrook Media published a short report alleging, among other things, that Hercules marks its software debt "at 100 cents on the dollar", "[d]espite billions worth of such debt across the industry falling into distressed territory", and that a growing share of Hercules's reported income comes from payment-in-kind loans, whereby borrowers pay interest by adding to their debt rather than in cash. 

Following publication of the Hunterbrook report, Hercules's stock price fell $1.22 per share, or 7.91%, to close at $14.21 per share on February 27, 2026.
