Shareholder Transaction Expenses [Table Text Block] |
(1)Represents the Sales Agents’ commission with respect to the shares of common stock being sold in this offering. There is no guarantee that there will be any additional sales of our common stock pursuant to the Prospectus. (2)The percentage reflects estimated offering expenses for this offering of approximately $2,500,000, of which we have incurred $1,450,000 as of May 17, 2024, and assumes that we sell all $1.0 billion of shares of common stock available under the equity distribution agreements with the Sales Agents. (3)The expenses of administering our dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) are included in operating expenses. The DRIP does not allow shareholders to sell shares through the DRIP. If a shareholder wishes to sell shares they would be required to select a broker of their choice and pay any fees or other costs associated with the sale. (4)Operating expenses in this table represent the estimated annual operating expenses of CSWC and its consolidated subsidiaries based on actual operating expenses for the year ended March 31, 2024. We do not have an investment adviser and are internally managed by our executive officers under the supervision of our board of directors. As a result, we do not pay investment advisory fees, but instead we pay the operating costs associated with employing investment management professionals including, without limitation, compensation expenses related to salaries, discretionary bonuses and restricted stock grants. (5)Interest payments on borrowed funds represents our (a) estimated annual interest payments based on actual interest rate terms under our credit facilities, with available commitments of $460 million under the Company's senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Corporate Credit Facility") and initial commitments of $150 million under the Company's special purpose vehicle financing credit facility (the "SPV Credit Facility"), and our anticipated drawdowns from our credit facilities, (b) our actual interest rate terms under the SBA Debentures and our anticipated drawdowns of the SBA Debentures, and (c) the 4.50% Notes due 2026 (the "January 2026 Notes"), the 3.375% Notes due 2026 (the "October 2026 Notes") and the 7.75% Notes due 2028 (the "August 2028 Notes"). As of March 31, 2024, we had $265.0 million outstanding under the Corporate Credit Facility, $153.0 million outstanding under the SBA Debentures, $140.0 million in aggregate principal of the January 2026 Notes outstanding, $150.0 million in aggregate principal of the October 2026 Notes outstanding and $71.9 million in aggregate principal of the August 2028 Notes outstanding. As of March 31, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding under the SPV Credit Facility. Any future issuances of debt securities will be made at the discretion of management and our board of directors after evaluating the investment opportunities and economic situation of the Company and the market as a whole. (6)Income tax provision/(benefit) relates to the accrual of (a) deferred and current tax provision (benefit) for U.S. federal income taxes and (b) excise, state and other taxes. Deferred taxes are non-cash in nature and may vary significantly from period to period. We are required to include deferred taxes in calculating our annual expenses even though deferred taxes are not currently payable or receivable. Income tax provision/(benefit) represents the estimated annual income tax provision/(benefit) of CSWC and its consolidated subsidiaries based on actual income tax provision/(benefit) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024. (7)Acquired fund fees and expenses represent the estimated indirect expense incurred due to our investment in I-45 SLF LLC, a joint venture with Main Street Capital Corporation, based upon the actual amount incurred for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, the board of managers of I-45 SLF LLC approved the dissolution and liquidation of I-45 SLF LLC and the wind up of its affairs.
