Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of Capital Southwest Corporation and its wholly-owned small business investment company subsidiary (the "Company"), have been prepared on the value basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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 generally accepted accounting principles 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 the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1998. Certain information and footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes 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.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations During the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company recorded dividend income from the following sources: Three Months Ended June 30 ------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- Alamo Group Inc. $292,600 $266,000 Kimberly-Clark Corporation 19,295 - The RectorSeal Corporation 240,000 240,000 Skylawn Corporation 150,000 150,000 The Whitmore Manufacturing Company 60,000 60,000 Westmarc Communications, Inc. 20,318 20,318 Other 38,534 37,539 -------- -------- $820,747 $773,857 ======== ======== Salaries in the three months ended June 30, 1998 increased from the year-ago period primarily due to the addition of an investment associate. Other operating expenses in the three months ended June 30, 1998 increased from the year-ago period primarily due to payment of a finders fee related to an investment. During the three months ended June 30, 1998, the Company reported a realized gain before income taxes of $761,837. It should be noted that a realized gain before income taxes occurs when an appreciated portfolio security is sold to realize a gain and a corresponding decrease in 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 unrealized appreciation occurs. Set forth in the following table are the significant increases and decreases in unrealized appreciation (before the related changes in deferred taxes and excluding the effect of gains or losses realized during the periods) by certain portfolio companies: Three Months Ended June 30 ------- 1998 1997 ---- ---- Alamo Group Inc. $ - $4,287,000 American Homestar Corporation 985,765 2,065,412 Balco, Inc. 1,904,680 - Encore Wire Corporation (2,104,000) 6,059,000 Mail-Well, Inc. 2,082,000 8,294,000 Mylan Laboratories, Inc. 930,074 (16,035) Palm Harbor Homes, Inc. - 14,328,000 PETsMART, Inc.
