In commenting on the Company’s results, Bowen Diehl, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The March quarter was another strong quarter for Capital Southwest, with $158 million of originations. Our portfolio continued to perform well, producing $0.68 of pre-tax net investment income for the quarter, which more than earned both our $0.57 per share regular dividend and our $0.06 per share supplemental dividend paid for the quarter. On the capitalization front, we further diversified our funding sources by closing on a new $150 million SPV financing credit facility during the quarter. We believe this new SPV credit facility will provide us with significant funding flexibility as we continue to thoughtfully grow our balance sheet. In consideration of the strong performance of our portfolio, the Board of Directors has again declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.57 per share for the June 30, 2024 quarter. Given the continued excess earnings being generated by our floating rate debt portfolio, our Board of Directors has also declared a supplemental dividend of $0.06 per share for the June 30, 2024 quarter, resulting in total dividends for the June 30, 2024 quarter 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 while base rates remain materially above long-term historical averages and we have a meaningful UTI balance.”

For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, Capital Southwest reported total investment income of $46.4 million, compared to $48.6 million in the prior quarter.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, total operating expenses (excluding interest expense) were $5.2 million, compared to $7.3 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in accrued bonus compensation in the current quarter.

The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $13.5 million for the quarter, compared to $23.5 million in the prior quarter.
The Company’s NAV at March 31, 2024 remained flat at $16.77 per share as compared to the prior quarter.
Fiscal Year 2024 Operating Results
For the year ended March 31, 2024, Capital Southwest reported total investment income of $178.1 million, compared to $119.3 million in the prior year. The increase in investment income was primarily attributable to an increase in average debt investments outstanding and an increase in the weighted average yield of debt investments.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, total operating expenses (excluding interest expense) were $24.1 million, compared to $21.4 million in the prior year. The increase in operating expenses (excluding interest expense) during the current year was primarily attributable to an increase in employee compensation, an increase in costs related to the Company's office space and costs incurred for a special meeting of shareholders.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, interest expense was $43.1 million, compared to $28.9 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average debt outstanding and an increase in the weighted average interest rate on total debt.
For the year ended March 31, 2024, total pre-tax net investment income was $110.9 million, compared to $69.0 million in the prior year.
During the year ended March 31, 2024, Capital Southwest recorded total net realized and unrealized losses on investments of $26.3 million, compared to $35.6 million in the prior year. For the year ended March 31, 2024, the total net realized and unrealized losses on investments reflects net realized and unrealized losses on equity of $5.3 million and net realized and unrealized losses on debt of $24.7 million, partially offset by net realized and unrealized gains on I-45 SLF of $3.7 million. The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $83.4 million, compared to $33.1 million in the prior year.
The Company's NAV at March 31, 2024 was $16.77, as compared to $16.37 at March 31, 2023. The increase in NAV per share from the prior year is primarily due to pre-tax net investment income in excess of dividends paid, as well as the issuance of common stock at a premium to NAV per share through the Equity ATM Program (as described below), partially offset by net realized and unrealized losses on investments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2024, Capital Southwest had approximately $32.3 million in unrestricted cash and money market balances, $265.0 million of total debt outstanding on the Corporate Credit Facility (as defined below), $139.4 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 4.50% Notes due January 2026 outstanding, $148.1 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 3.375% Notes due October 2026, $69.7 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 7.75% Notes due August 2028 and $148.7 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of SBA Debentures (as defined below) outstanding. As of March 31, 2024, Capital Southwest had $194.2 million in available borrowings under the Corporate Credit Facility and $150.0 million in available borrowings under the SPV Credit Facility (as defined below). The regulatory debt to equity ratio at the end of the quarter was 0.82 to 1.
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 February 2, 2024, the Company formed Capital Southwest SPV LLC ("SPV"). SPV is a 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 includes total commitments of $150 million of initial commitments with (i) an increase to $200 million of total commitments on the earlier of (a) June 20, 2024 or (b) the date requested by the Company, in its sole discretion, and (ii) 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 pays unused commitment fees of (i) 0.10% through April 20, 2024 and (ii) 0.35% thereafter, on the unused lender commitments under the SPV Credit Facility, in addition to other customary fees. The SPV Credit Facility matures on March 20, 2029.
In June 2023, the Company issued approximately $71.9 million in aggregate principal amount, including the underwriters' full exercise of their option to purchase an additional $9.4 million in aggregate principal amount to cover over-allotments, of 7.75% notes due 2028 (the "August 2028 Notes"). The August 2028 Notes mature on August 1, 2028 and may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time, or from time to time, at the Company’s option on or after August 1, 2025. The August 2028 Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.75% per year, payable quarterly on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each year. The August 2028 Notes are the direct unsecured obligations of the Company, rank pari passu with the Company's other outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness and are effectively or structurally subordinated to all of the Company's existing and future secured indebtedness, including borrowings under the Corporate Credit Facility, the SPV Credit Facility and the SBA Debentures. The August 2028 Notes are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the trading symbol "CSWCZ."
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 having an aggregate offering price of up to $650 million. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company sold 2,069,620 shares of its common stock under the Equity ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $23.80 per share, raising $49.3 million of gross proceeds. Net proceeds were $48.5 million after commissions to the sales agents on shares sold. For the year ended March 31, 2024, the Company sold 8,733,315 shares of its common stock under the Equity ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $21.09, raising $184.2 million of gross proceeds. Net proceeds were $181.5 million after commissions to the sales agents on shares sold. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has $121.1 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 March 31, 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 March 31, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program.
Regular Dividend of $0.57 Per Share and Supplemental Dividend of $0.06 Per Share for Quarter Ended June 30, 2024
