In commenting on the Company’s results, Bowen Diehl, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our portfolio continued to perform well this quarter, producing $0.54 of Pre-Tax Net Investment Income. Deal activity remained strong, as we closed new commitments of approximately $86 million during the quarter. On the capitalization front, we continued to programmatically raise equity through our equity ATM program, raising $26.9 million in gross proceeds at 118% of the prevailing NAV per share during the quarter. Over the past nine months, we have raised over $97 million in equity capital and reduced our regulatory leverage from 1.23x to 1.11x as of the current quarter end. Finally, in consideration of the performance of our portfolio, improvements in our operating leverage, and rising market interest rates, the Board of Directors has declared an increase in our regular quarterly dividend to $0.52 per share. Based on the strength of our balance sheet, liquidity position, leverage profile, and the current interest rate environment, we feel confident in our ability to continue to grow Pre-Tax Net Investment Income. In addition, given the excess earnings being generated by the Federal Reserve's aggressive interest rate increases and the resulting excess earnings being generated by our floating rate debt portfolio, our Board of Directors has also declared a supplemental dividend of $0.05 per share for the December quarter. While future dividend declarations are at the discretion of our Board of Directors, it is our intent to distribute supplemental dividends for the foreseeable future while base rates remain materially above long-term historical averages. Future supplemental dividends will also continue to be supported by realizations in our equity co-investment portfolio.”

Second Fiscal Quarter 2023 Operating Results
For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, Capital Southwest reported total investment income of $26.8 million, compared to $22.5 million in the prior quarter. The increase in investment income was primarily attributable to an increase in average debt investments outstanding, an increase in the weighted average yield on investments and an increase in dividend income received from I-45 SLF.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, total operating expenses (excluding interest expense) were $5.2 million, compared to $4.4 million in the prior quarter. The increase in expenses was primarily attributable to an increase in accrued bonus compensation in the current quarter.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, interest expense was $6.6 million as compared to $5.5 million in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average debt outstanding and an increase in the weighted average interest rate on debt.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, total pre-tax net investment income was $15.0 million, compared to $12.6 million in the prior quarter.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, Capital Southwest recorded total net realized and unrealized losses on investments of $5.0 million, compared to $9.9 million in the prior quarter. For the quarter ended September 30, 2022, this included net realized and unrealized gains on equity investments of $4.2 million, net realized and unrealized losses on debt investments of $8.4 million and net unrealized losses on I-45 SLF of $0.8 million. The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $9.5 million for the quarter, compared to $2.5 million in the prior quarter.
The Company’s NAV at September 30, 2022 was $16.53 per share, as compared to $16.54 at June 30, 2022. The decrease in NAV per share from the prior quarter is primarily due to net realized losses on investments, partially offset by net unrealized gains on investments and the issuance of common stock at a premium to NAV per share under the Equity ATM Program (as described below).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2022, Capital Southwest had approximately $30.2 million in unrestricted cash and money market balances, $240.0 million of total debt outstanding on the Credit Facility (as defined below), $138.9 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 4.50% Notes due January 2026 outstanding, $146.9 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of the 3.375% Notes due October 2026 and $77.6 million, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, of SBA Debentures (as defined below) outstanding. As of September 30, 2022, Capital Southwest had $139.4 million in available borrowings under the Credit Facility. The regulatory debt to equity ratio at the end of the quarter was 1.11 to 1.
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 $100,000,000. On May 26, 2021, the Company (i) increased the maximum amount of shares of its common stock to be sold through the Equity ATM Program to $250,000,000 from $100,000,000 and (ii) reduced the commission paid to the sales agents for the Equity ATM Program to 1.5% from 2.0% of the gross sales price of shares of the Company's common stock sold through the sales agents pursuant to the Equity ATM Program on and after May 26, 2021. On August 2, 2022, the Company increased the maximum amount of shares of its common stock to be sold through the Equity ATM Program to $650,000,000 from $250,000,000.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold 1,381,716 shares of its common stock under the Equity ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $19.48 per share, raising $26.9 million of gross proceeds. Net proceeds were $26.5 million after commissions to the sales agents on shares sold. Cumulative to date, the Company has sold 11,822,228 shares of its common stock under the Equity ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $21.75, raising $257.1 million of gross proceeds. Net proceeds were $252.9 million after commissions to the sales agents on shares sold. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has $392.9 million available under the Equity ATM Program.
In August 2016, CSWC entered into a senior secured credit facility (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Facility”) to provide additional liquidity to support its investment and operational activities. The Credit Facility contains an accordion feature that allows CSWC to increase the total commitments under the Credit Facility up to $400 million from new and existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments. On August 9, 2021, CSWC entered into the Second Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"). Prior to the Credit Agreement, (1) borrowings under the Credit Facility accrued interest on a per annum basis at a rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate plus 2.50% with no LIBOR floor, and (2) the total borrowing capacity was $340 million with commitments from a diversified group of eleven lenders. The Credit Agreement (1) decreased the total borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility to $335 million with commitments from a diversified group of ten lenders, (2) reduced the interest rate on borrowings to LIBOR plus 2.15% with no LIBOR floor and removed conditions related thereto as previously set forth in the Amended and Restated Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement, and (3) extended the end of the Credit Facility's revolver period from December 21, 2022 to August 9, 2025 and extended the final maturity from December 21, 2023 to August 9, 2026. The Credit Agreement also modified certain covenants in the Credit Facility, including, among other things, to increase the minimum obligors’ net worth test from $180 million to $200 million. CSWC pays unused commitment fees of 0.50% to 1.00% per annum, based on utilization, on the unused lender commitments under the Credit Facility.
On May 11, 2022, CSWC entered into Amendment No. 2 (the "Amendment") to the Credit Agreement. The Amendment changed the benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to Term SOFR. In addition, on May 11, 2022, CSWC entered into an Incremental Commitment Agreement, pursuant to which the total commitments under the Credit Agreement increased from $335 million to $380 million.
On April 20, 2021, our wholly owned subsidiary, Capital Southwest SBIC I, LP (“SBIC I”), received a license from 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 which 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. Current statutes and regulations permit SBIC I to borrow up to $175 million in SBA Debentures with at least $87.5 million in regulatory capital, subject to SBA approval.
In November 2015, I-45 SLF entered into a senior secured credit facility led by Deutsche Bank. The I-45 credit facility has total commitments outstanding of $150 million from a group of four bank lenders, which is scheduled to mature in March 2026. Borrowings under the I-45 credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 2.15%. As of September 30, 2022, I-45 SLF had $110.0 million in borrowings outstanding under its credit facility.
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. 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, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program.
Regular Dividend of $0.52 Per Share and Supplemental Dividend of $0.05 Per Share for Quarter Ended December 31, 2022
On September 20, 2022, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.52 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. On October 26, 2022, the Board declared a supplemental dividend of $0.05 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.

Supplemental Dividend
Amount Per Share: $0.05
Ex-Dividend Date: December 14, 2022
Record Date: December 15, 2022

When declaring dividends, the Board reviews estimates of taxable income available for distribution, which may differ from net investment income under generally accepted accounting principles. The final determination of taxable income for each year, as well as the tax attributes for dividends in such year, will be made after the close of the tax year.
Capital Southwest maintains a dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP") that provides for the reinvestment of dividends on behalf of its registered stockholders who hold their shares with Capital Southwest’s transfer agent and registrar, American Stock Transfer and Trust Company. Under the DRIP, if the Company declares a dividend, registered stockholders who have opted into the DRIP by the dividend record date will have their dividend automatically reinvested into additional shares of Capital Southwest common stock.
