I shall demonstrate, under some mild assumptions, that the symmetry group of extreme, Killing, supergravity horzions contains an sl(2, R) subalgebra. The proof requires a generalization of the Lichnerowicz theorem for non-metric connections. The techniques developed can also be applied in the classification
of AdS and Minkowski flux backgrounds.
