In commenting on the Company’s results, Bowen Diehl, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The September quarter was another strong quarter for Capital Southwest. Our portfolio continued to perform well, producing $0.64 of pre-tax net investment income per share for the quarter, which earned both our $0.58 per share regular dividend and our $0.06 per share supplemental dividend paid for the quarter. Originations for the quarter were $90 million, offset by $45 million in prepayments. Due to delayed deal closings past the end of the September quarter, as well as an exceptionally strong current backlog of deals in diligence, we expect very robust net portfolio growth for the quarter ending December 31, 2024. In consideration of the strong performance of our portfolio, the Board of Directors has again declared a regular dividend of $0.58 per share for the quarter ending December 31, 2024. Our Board of Directors has also declared a supplemental dividend of $0.05 per share for the quarter ending December 31, 2024, resulting in total dividends for the quarter ending December 31, 2024 of $0.63 per share. While future dividend declarations are at the discretion of our Board of Directors, it is our intent to continue to distribute quarterly supplemental dividends for the foreseeable future. Finally, we continued our capital raising track record during the quarter raising over $20 million on our Equity ATM Program and adding $25 million in new commitments to our Corporate Credit Facility.”

Second Fiscal Quarter 2025 Operating Results
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, Capital Southwest reported total investment income of $48.7 million, compared to $51.4 million in the prior quarter. The decrease in investment income was primarily attributable to a decrease in distributions received from our equity investments, as well as a decrease in amendment and prepayment fees received during the quarter.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, total operating expenses (excluding interest expense) were $6.1 million, compared to $7.6 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in accrued bonus compensation in the current quarter and a decrease in professional fees primarily due to non-recurring fees incurred in the previous quarter in connection with the compensation consultant engaged by the Compensation Committee.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, interest expense was $12.6 million, compared to $12.4 million in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average debt outstanding.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, total pre-tax net investment income was $30.0 million, compared to $31.3 million in the prior quarter.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, there was a tax benefit of $1.2 million, compared to a tax provision of $2.4 million in the prior quarter. The benefit includes a $1.5 million deferred tax benefit, which is primarily attributable to an increase in the tax basis of investments held at the Taxable Subsidiary due to pass-through income, resulting in a decrease in tax appreciation.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, Capital Southwest recorded total net realized and unrealized losses on investments of $8.5 million, compared to $14.8 million of total net realized and unrealized losses in the prior quarter. For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the total net realized and unrealized losses on investments reflected net realized and unrealized losses on debt investments of $7.2 million and net realized and unrealized losses on equity investments of $1.3 million. The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $22.7 million for the quarter, compared to $14.0 million in the prior quarter.
The Company’s NAV at September 30, 2024 was $16.59 per share, as compared to $16.60 the prior quarter. The decrease in NAV per share from the prior quarter is primarily due to net realized and unrealized losses on investments, partially offset by the issuance of common stock at a premium to NAV per share through the Equity ATM Program (as described below).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2024, Capital Southwest had approximately $47.2 million in unrestricted cash and money market balances and $406.2 million of unused capacity under the Corporate Credit Facility (as defined below) and the SPV Credit Facility (as defined below). The regulatory debt to equity ratio at the end of the quarter was 0.80 to 1.

As of September 30, 2024, Capital Southwest had the following borrowings outstanding:
•$200.0 million of total debt outstanding on the Corporate Credit Facility
•$78.0 million of total debt outstanding on the SPV Credit Facility
•$139.6 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 4.50% Notes due January 2026
•$148.5 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 3.375% Notes due October 2026
•$69.9 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 7.75% Notes due August 2028
•$149.1 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of SBA Debentures (as defined below)

In August 2016, CSWC entered into a senior secured credit facility (the “Corporate Credit Facility”) to provide additional liquidity to support its investment and operational activities. Borrowings under the Corporate Credit Facility accrue interest on a per annum basis at a rate equal to the applicable SOFR rate plus 2.15%. On August 2, 2023, CSWC entered into the Third Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") that (1) increased commitments under the Corporate Credit Facility from $400 million to $435 million; (2) added an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the maximum commitments up to $750 million; (3) extended the end of the Corporate Credit Facility's revolving period from August 9, 2025 to August 2, 2027 and extended the final maturity from August 9, 2026 to August 2, 2028; and (4) amended several financial covenants. On December 7, 2023, the Company entered into an Incremental Commitment and Assumption Agreement that increased the total commitments under the accordion feature of the Credit Agreement by $25 million, which increased total commitments from $435 million to $460 million.



The $25 million increase was provided by one new lender, bringing the total bank syndicate to ten participants.
On March 1, 2024, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement (the "Amendment"). The Amendment amended the Credit Agreement and other related loan documents to, among other things, permit the Company to enter into special purpose vehicle financings and exclude assets held by any such special purpose vehicle from the assets pledged as collateral securing the Corporate Credit Facility.
On September 12, 2024, the Company entered into an Incremental Commitment and Assumption Agreement that increased the total commitments under the accordion feature of the Credit Agreement by $25 million, which increased total commitments from $460 million to $485 million. The $25 million increase was provided by one new lender, bringing the total bank syndicate to 11 participants.
On February 2, 2024, the Company formed Capital Southwest SPV LLC ("SPV"). SPV is a wholly owned special purpose vehicle that was formed to hold investments for the SPV Credit Facility (as defined below) to support our investment and operating activities. On March 20, 2024, SPV entered into a special purpose vehicle financing credit facility (the "SPV Credit Facility"). The SPV Credit Facility included an initial commitment of $150 million. Pursuant to the terms of the loan agreement, on June 20, 2024, total commitments automatically increased from $150 million to $200 million. The SPV Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that allows increases up to $400 million of total commitments from new and existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments. Borrowings under the SPV Credit Facility bear interest at three-month Term SOFR plus 2.50% per annum during the revolving period ending on March 20, 2027 and three-month Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 2.85% thereafter. SPV (i) paid unused commitment fees of 0.10% through April 20, 2024 and (ii) pays unused commitment fees of 0.35% thereafter, on the unused lender commitments under the SPV Credit Facility, in addition to other customary fees. Under the SPV Credit Facility, SPV also pays a utilization fee based on the amount of borrowings utilized. The SPV Credit Facility matures on March 20, 2029.
The Company has an "at-the-market" offering (the "Equity ATM Program"), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time through sales agents, shares of its common stock. On May 21, 2024, the Company increased the maximum amount of shares of its common stock to be sold through the Equity ATM Program from $650 million to $1 billion. During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company sold 839,099 shares of its common stock under the Equity ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $24.49 per share, raising $20.6 million of gross proceeds. Net proceeds were $20.2 million after commissions to the sales agents on shares sold. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has $412.2 million available under the Equity ATM Program.
On April 20, 2021, our wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Southwest SBIC I, LP (“SBIC I”), received a license from the Small Business Administration (the "SBA") to operate as a Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") under Section 301(c) of the Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended. The SBIC license allows SBIC I to obtain leverage by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures ("SBA Debentures"), subject to the issuance of a leverage commitment by the SBA. SBA debentures are loans issued to an SBIC that have interest payable semi-annually and a ten-year maturity. The interest rate is fixed shortly after issuance at a market-driven spread over U.S. Treasury Notes with ten-year maturities. On December 20, 2023, SBIC I received an additional leverage commitment in the amount of $45.0 million to be issued on or prior to September 30, 2028. As of September 30, 2024, SBIC I had a total leverage commitment from the SBA in the amount of $175.0 million, of which $22.0 million remains unused.

Share Repurchase Program
On July 28, 2021, the Company's board of directors (the "Board") approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $20 million of its outstanding shares of common stock in the open market at certain thresholds below its NAV per share, in accordance with guidelines specified in Rules 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. On August 31, 2021, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement, which became effective immediately, and the Company will cease purchasing its common stock under the share repurchase program upon the earlier of, among other things: (1) the date on which the aggregate purchase price for all shares equals $20 million including, without limitation, all applicable fees, costs and expenses; or (2) upon written notice by the Company to the broker that the share repurchase agreement is terminated. During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program.

Page 13 CSWC Investment Portfolio Composition (1) At September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, we had equity ownership in approximately 61% and 59%, respectively, of our investments (2) The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates during the quarter for all debt investments at cost as of September 30, 2024, including accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt instruments (3) The weighted average annual effective yields on total investments were calculated by dividing total investment income, exclusive of non-recurring fees, by average total investments at fair value (4) Includes CSWC debt investments only. Weighted average EBITDA metric is calculated using investment cost basis weighting. For the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, twelve portfolio companies are excluded from this calculation due to a reported debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio that was not meaningful. (5) Includes CSWC debt investments only. Calculated as the amount of each portfolio company’s debt (including CSWC’s position and debt senior or pari passu to CSWC’s position, but excluding debt subordinated to CSWC’s position) in the capital structure divided by each portfolio company’s adjusted EBITDA. Weighted average leverage is calculated using investment cost basis weighting. For the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, twelve portfolio companies are excluded from this calculation due to a reported debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio that was not meaningful.
