Page 13 CSWC Investment Portfolio Composition (1) At September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, we had equity ownership in approximately 61% and 59%, respectively, of our investments (2) The weighted-average annual effective yields were computed using the effective interest rates during the quarter for all debt investments at cost as of September 30, 2024, including accretion of original issue discount but excluding fees payable upon repayment of the debt instruments (3) The weighted average annual effective yields on total investments were calculated by dividing total investment income, exclusive of non-recurring fees, by average total investments at fair value (4) Includes CSWC debt investments only. Weighted average EBITDA metric is calculated using investment cost basis weighting. For the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, twelve portfolio companies are excluded from this calculation due to a reported debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio that was not meaningful. (5) Includes CSWC debt investments only. Calculated as the amount of each portfolio company’s debt (including CSWC’s position and debt senior or pari passu to CSWC’s position, but excluding debt subordinated to CSWC’s position) in the capital structure divided by each portfolio company’s adjusted EBITDA. Weighted average leverage is calculated using investment cost basis weighting. For the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, twelve portfolio companies are excluded from this calculation due to a reported debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio that was not meaningful.
