Comparison of nine months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024

Previous report

Interest income, PIK interest income, and amortization of purchase discounts and fees on an aggregate basis for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 totaled $154.8 million as compared to $138.3 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to a 22.2% increase in the average monthly cost basis of debt investments held by us from $1,435.1 million to $1,753.0 million year-over-year, partially offset by a decrease in weighted average yield on debt investments from 12.1% to 11.3% year-over-year. Dividend income for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 increased $6.6 million as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024 due to an increase in distributions received from portfolio companies. Fee income for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $0.4 million as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to a decrease in prepayment fees and arranger fees, partially offset by an increase in administrative fees. Other income for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 decreased $0.5 million as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to a decrease in interest income on cash balances held.

Previous report

For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, our total employee compensation expense (including both cash and share-based compensation) increased by $2.7 million as compared to the total employee compensation expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in accrued bonus compensation based on the Company's projected performance compared to its plan, partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation due to a lower fair value on current year restricted stock award grants. For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, our total general and administrative expense, including professional fees, was $8.8 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 7.7%, as compared to $8.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to a variety of factors including an increase in legal fees, as well as an increase in building expenses associated with our additional office space, in addition to individually immaterial increases across several general operating expenses.

Previous wording

Because we are internally managed, we do not pay any external investment advisory fees, but instead directly incur the operating costs associated with employing investment and portfolio management professionals. We believe that our internally managed structure provides us with a beneficial operating expense structure when compared to other publicly traded and privately held investment firms that are externally managed, and our internally managed structure allows us the opportunity to leverage our non-interest operating expenses as we grow our investment portfolio. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the ratio of our last twelve months ("LTM") operating expenses, excluding interest expense, as a percentage of our LTM average total assets was 1.67% and 1.61%, respectively.

The most significant determination inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements is the valuation of our investment portfolio and the related amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation. As of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, our investment portfolio at fair value represented approximately 95.1% and 94.8% of our total assets, respectively. We are required to report our investments at fair value. We follow the provisions of ASC 820. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC 820 requires us to assume that the portfolio investment is to be sold in the principal market to independent market participants, which may be a hypothetical market. See Note 4 - Fair Value Measurements in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion of our investment portfolio valuation process and procedures.

Previous wording

Interest and dividend income is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent amounts are expected to be collected. Dividend income is recognized on the date dividends are declared by the portfolio company or at the point an obligation exists for the portfolio company to make a distribution. Discounts/premiums received to par on loans purchased are capitalized and accreted or amortized into income over the life of the loan using the effective interest method. Upon the prepayment of a loan, any unamortized discount or premium is accelerated into interest income. In accordance with our valuation policy, accrued interest and dividend income is evaluated quarterly for collectability. When we do not expect the debtor to be able to service all of its debt or other obligations, we will generally establish a reserve against interest income receivable, thereby placing the loan or debt security on non-accrual status, and cease to recognize interest income on that loan or debt security until the borrower has demonstrated the ability and intent to pay contractual amounts due. If a loan or debt security’s status significantly improves regarding the portfolio company's ability to service debt or other obligations, it will be restored to accrual basis. As of December 31, 2025, investments on non-accrual status represented approximately 1.5% of our total investment portfolio's fair value and approximately 3.2% of its cost. As of March 31, 2025, investments on non-accrual status represented approximately 1.7% of our total investment portfolio's fair value and approximately 3.5% of its cost.

(b)The weighted average annual effective yield of debt investments is not the same as a return on investment for CSWC's shareholders, but rather relates to CSWC's investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of CSWC's and subsidiaries' fees and expenses. The weighted average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates during the quarter for all debt investments at cost as of December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively, including accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt instruments. As of December 31, 2025, investments on non-accrual status represented approximately 1.5% of our total investment portfolio's fair value and approximately 3.2% of its cost. As of March 31, 2025, investments on non-accrual status represented approximately 1.7% of our total investment portfolio's fair value and approximately 3.5% of its cost. Weighted average annual effective yield is not a return to shareholders and is higher than what an investor in shares in our common stock will realize on its investment because it does not reflect our expenses or any sales load paid by an investor.

Wecontinue to observe certain macro-economic risks and uncertainties, including those relating to commodity inflation and elements of geopolitical instability (including the conflicts in Europe and the Middle East and U.S. and China relations). Changes to trade policies, including the imposition of new tariffs, could disrupt supply chains and may negatively impact the financial condition of certain of our portfolio companies as well as the macro-economic environment. In the event that the U.S. economy enters into a protracted recession, it is possible that the results of certain U.S. middle market companies could experience deterioration. We are closely monitoring the effect of such market volatility may have on our portfolio companies and our investment activities, and we have also increased oversight of credits in vulnerable industries to mitigate any decline in loan performance and reduce credit risk.

Previous wording

The composite measure of our financial performance in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is captioned “Net increase in net assets from operations” and consists of four elements. The first is “Net investment income,” which is the difference between income from interest, dividends and fees and our combined operating and interest expenses, net of applicable income taxes. The second element is “Net realized (loss) gain on investments, net of tax,” which is the difference between the proceeds received from the disposition of portfolio securities and their stated cost. The third element is the “Net unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on investments, net of tax,” which is the net change in the market or fair value of our investment portfolio, compared with the stated cost. The “Net realized (loss) gain on investments before income tax” and “Net unrealized (depreciation) appreciation on investments, net of tax” are directly related in that when an appreciated portfolio security is sold to realize a gain, a corresponding decrease in net unrealized appreciation occurs by transferring the gain associated with the transaction from being “unrealized” to being “realized.” Conversely, when a loss is realized on a depreciated portfolio security, an increase in net unrealized appreciation occurs. The fourth element is the “Realized loss on extinguishment of debt”, which, with respect to the full redemption of the January 2026 Notes, the October 2026 Notes and the August 2028 Notes, is the difference between the principal amount due at maturity adjusted for any unamortized debt issuance costs.

Dividend income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $2.0 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 due to a decrease in distributions received from portfolio companies. Fee income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $2.1 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to an increase in arranger fees and other fees received in the current period.

Interest and Fees on our Borrowings

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere

For the nine months ended December 31, 2025, our total interest expense was $49.3 million, an increase of $9.6 million, as compared to the total interest expense of $39.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $210.2 million in average borrowings outstanding, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on our total debt from 5.54% to 5.51% for the nine months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The decrease in the weighted average interest rate was primarily due to a decrease in the weighted average interest rate on our Credit Facilities.
