Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
------------------------------------------
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which include our
accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned small business investment company
subsidiary and our wholly-owned management company, have been prepared on the
value method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States for investment companies. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The financial statements included herein have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
6 of Regulation S-X. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2005. Certain information and
footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been
condensed or omitted, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate for
a fair presentation. The information reflects all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods.
2. Indemnification
We enter into agreements that contain customary indemnification
provisions. The maximum exposure under these indemnification agreements is
unknown, but we have had no previous claims or losses and expect the risk of
losses to be remote.
3. Stock-Based Compensation
Effective April 1, 2003, we adopted the fair value method of recording
compensation expense related to all stock options granted after March 31, 2003,
in accordance with FASB Statement Nos. 123 and 148. Accordingly, the fair value
of stock options as determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
pricing model will be expensed over the vesting period of the related stock
options. No stock options have been granted since March 31, 2003.
The following table illustrates the effect on net asset value and net
asset value per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
FASB Statement No. 123 to stock-based compensation for options granted prior to
the implementation of FASB Statement No. 123.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(continued)
The diluted net asset value per share calculation assumes all vested
outstanding options for which the market price exceeds the exercise price have
been exercised.
In December 2004, the FASB issued a revised SFAS No. 123(R),
"Share-Based Payment." It requires us to measure all employee stock-based
compensation awards using a fair value method and record such expense in our
consolidated financial statements. In addition it requires additional accounting
and disclosure related to the cash flow effects resulting from share-based
payment arrangements. It is effective at the beginning of the fiscal year that
begins after June 15, 2005. We expect that the adoption effective April 1, 2006,
will not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows and that the effect on our net asset value will be
comparable to the pro forma disclosures presented above.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Net asset value at June 30, 2005 was $308,437,746, equivalent to $79.97
per share after deducting an allowance of $30.73 per share for deferred taxes on
net unrealized appreciation of investments. Assuming reinvestment of dividends,
the June 30, 2005 net asset value reflects an increase of 8.0% during the past
twelve months.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
(continued)
Results of Operations
The composite measure of our financial performance in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations is captioned "Increase (decrease) in net assets from
operations" and consists of three elements. The first is "Net investment
income", which is the difference between our income from interest, dividends and
fees and our combined operating and interest expenses, net of applicable income
taxes. The second element is "Net realized gain (loss) on investments", which is
the difference between the proceeds received from disposition of portfolio
securities and their stated cost, net of applicable income tax expense or
benefit. The third element is the "Net increase (decrease) in unrealized
appreciation of investments", which is the net change in the market or fair
value of our investment portfolio, compared with stated cost, net of an increase
or decrease in deferred income taxes which would become payable if the
unrealized appreciation were realized through the sale or other disposition of
the investment portfolio. It should be noted that the "Net realized gain (loss)
on investments" and "Net increase (decrease) in unrealized appreciation of
investments" 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.
Net Investment Income
Interest income of $141,903 in the three months ended June 30, 2005
increased from $93,282 in the year-ago period primarily because of an increase
in loans to portfolio companies and an increase in interest rates. During the
three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, we recorded dividend income from the
following sources:

Alamo Group Inc. $ (8,463,000) $ --

Encore Wire Corporation -- (10,898,000)
Palm Harbor Homes, Inc. 11,783,000 --
The RectorSeal Corporation 2,100,000 4,000,000
As reflected in the above table, at June 30, 2005, the value of our
investment in Alamo Group Inc. was decreased from the March 31, 2005 value by
$8,463,000 due to less favorable conditions in certain markets served by Alamo
and a decline in the public market price of the company's unrestricted stock.
During the three months ended June 30, 2005, the value of our
investment in Palm Harbor Homes, Inc. was increased due to an improvement in the
company's earnings and a more favorable outlook for fiscal year 2006.
During the three months ended June 30, 2004, the value of our
investment in Encore Wire Corporation was decreased by $10,898,000 due to the
cyclical nature of Encore's profit margins and the probable effect of lower
copper prices on Encore's earnings in its second quarter ended June 30, 2004.
Portfolio Investments
During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, we made additional investments
of $2,805,201 in existing portfolio companies.
We have agreed, subject to certain conditions, to invest up to
$1,606,275 in five portfolio companies.
Financial Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately
$3.7 million. Pursuant to Small Business Administration (SBA) regulations, cash
and cash equivalents of $188,727 held by Capital Southwest Venture Corporation
(CSVC) may not be transferred or advanced to us without the consent of the SBA.
Under current SBA regulations and subject to SBA's approval of its credit
application, CSVC would be entitled to borrow up to $65.0 million. We also have
an unsecured $25.0 million revolving line of credit from a commercial bank, of
which $17.0 million was available at June 30, 2005. With the exception of a
capital gain distribution made in the form of a distribution of the stock of a
portfolio company in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, we have elected to
retain all gains realized during the past 37 years. Retention of future gains is
viewed as an important source of funds to sustain our investment activity.
Approximately $56.1 million of our investment portfolio is represented by
unrestricted publicly-traded securities, which have an ascertainable market
value and represent a source of liquidity.
Funds to be used by us for operating or investment purposes may be
transferred in the form of dividends, management fees or loans from Skylawn
Corporation, The RectorSeal Corporation and The Whitmore Manufacturing Company,
wholly-owned portfolio companies, to the extent of their available cash reserves
and borrowing capacities.
10
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
(continued)
Management believes that our cash and cash equivalents and cash
available from other sources described above are adequate to meet our expected
requirements. Consistent with our long-term strategy, the disposition of
investments from time to time may also be an important source of funds for
future investment activities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in
marketable equity security prices. We do not use derivative financial
instruments to mitigate any of these risks. The return on our investments is not
materially affected by foreign currency fluctuations.
Our investment performance is a function of our portfolio companies'
profitability, which may be affected by economic cycles, competitive forces and
production costs including labor rates, raw material prices and certain
commodity prices. All of these factors may have an adverse effect on the value
of our investments and on our net asset value. Most of the companies in our
investment portfolio do not hedge their exposure to raw material and commodity
price fluctuations.
Our investment in portfolio securities includes fixed-rate debt
securities which totaled $8,293,397 at June 30, 2005, equivalent to 1.9% of the
value of our total investments. Generally these debt securities are below
investment grade and have relatively high fixed rates of interest, therefore;
minor changes in market yields of publicly-traded debt securities have little or
no effect on the values of debt securities in our portfolio and no effect on
interest income. Our investments in debt securities are generally held to
maturity and their fair values are determined on the basis of the terms of the
debt security and the financial condition of the issuer.
A portion of our investment portfolio consists of debt and equity
securities of private companies. We anticipate little or no effect on the values
of these investments from modest changes in public market equity valuations.
Should significant changes in market valuations of comparable publicly-owned
companies occur, there may be a corresponding effect on valuations of private
companies, which would affect the value and the amount and timing of proceeds
eventually realized from these investments. A portion of our investment
portfolio also consists of restricted common stock of publicly-owned companies.
The fair values of these restricted securities are influenced by the nature of
applicable resale restrictions, the underlying earnings and financial condition
of the issuers of such restricted securities and the market valuations of
comparable publicly-owned companies. A portion of our investment portfolio also
consists of unrestricted, freely marketable common stocks of publicly-owned
companies. These freely marketable investments, which are valued at the public
market price, are directly exposed to equity price risks, in that a change in an
issuer's public market equity price would result in an identical change in the
fair value of our investment in such security.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2005, an evaluation was performed under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including the President and
Chairman of the Board and Secretary-Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that
evaluation, our management, including the President and Chairman of the Board
and Secretary-Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of June 30, 2005. There have been no significant changes
during the quarter covered by this report in our internal control over financial
reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect internal control
over financial reporting.
