CAPITAL SOUTHWEST CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements ------------------------------------------ (Unaudited) 1. 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, 1999. 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.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Net asset value at June 30, 1999 was $261,345,098, equivalent to $68.50 per share after deducting an allowance of $25.32 per share for deferred taxes on net unrealized appreciation. Assuming reinvestment of all dividends and tax credits on retained long term capital gains, this represents a decrease of 12.7% during the past twelve months and an increase of 2.3% during the past three months. June 30, June 30, 1999 1998 ---- ---- Net assets $261,345,098 $299,600,486 Shares outstanding 3,815,051 3,787,951 Net assets per share $68.50 $79.09 Interest income in the three months ended June 30, 1999 decreased from the year-ago period primarily because of a decrease in average idle funds invested. During the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, the Company recorded dividend income from the following sources: Three Months Ended June 30 ------- 1999 1998 ---- ---- Alamo Group Inc. $292,600 $292,600 Kimberly-Clark Corporation 20,067 19,295 The RectorSeal Corporation -- 240,000 Skylawn Corporation -- 150,000 The Whitmore Manufacturing Company -- 60,000 AT&T 29,314 -- TCI Holdings, Inc./Westmarc Communications, Inc. 20,318 20,318 Other 41,020 38,534 ---------- ---------- $403,319 $820,747 ========== ========== Salaries in the three months ended June 30, 1999 decreased from the year-ago period primarily due to a reduction in staff. Other operating expenses in the three months ended June 30, 1999 decreased from the year-ago period primarily due to payment of a finders fee related to an investment. During the three months ended June 30, 1999, the Company reported a realized gain before income taxes of $7,831,369. 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. 7

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 portfolio company: Three Months Ended June 30 ------- 1999 1998 ---- ---- AT&T/Tele-Communications - TCI Group 346,993 837,399 AT&T-Liberty Media Group/Tele-Communications LM & TCI Ventures Goup 3,541,206 774,859 American Homestar Corporation (375,530) 985,765 Balco, Inc. -- 1,904,680 Dyntec, Inc.

(120,268) 930,074 PETsMART, Inc. 1,431,106 (470,221) During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company made a new investment of $100,000 and an additional investment of $300,000 in an existing portfolio company. The Company has agreed, subject to certain conditions, to invest up to $6,000,000 in six portfolio companies. Many computer software systems in use today cannot properly process date-related information from and after January 1, 2000. Should any of the computer systems employed by our major portfolio companies fail to process this type of information properly, it could have a negative impact on the Company's shareholders. The Company has reviewed its computer system and determined that it will be Year 2000 compliant. In addition, the Company has inquired of its major service providers as well as its major portfolio companies to determine if they will be prepared for the Year 2000. All have indicated they are taking the necessary steps to be Year 2000 compliant. It is anticipated that the Company will incur no material expenses related to the Year 2000 issues. PART II.
