(1) Securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are restricted securities. Money market funds are valued at net asset value and are considered level 1 investments within the fair value hierarchy.
(2)
Current yield as of February 28, 2026, was approximately 3.59% on the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund.
(3)
Current yield as of February 28, 2026, was approximately 3.19% on the Valley National Bank Business Money Market Fund.
(a) Represents an investment that is not a “qualifying asset” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act”). As of February 2026, non-qualifying assets represent 7.0% of the Company’s portfolio at fair value. As a BDC, the Company generally has to invest at least 70% of its total assets in qualifying assets.
(b) Percentages are based on net assets of $396,155,754 as of February 28, 2026.
(c) Because there is no “readily available market quotations” (as defined in the 1940 Act) for these investments, the fair values of these investments were determined using significant unobservable inputs and approved in good faith by our board of directors. These investments have been included as Level 3 in the Fair Value Hierarchy (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements).
(d) These securities are either fully or partially pledged as collateral under the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility (see Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements).
(e) This investment does not have a stated interest rate that is payable thereon. As a result, the 0.00% interest rate in the table above represents the effective interest rate currently earned on the investment cost and is based on the current cash interest and other income generated by the investment.
(f) As defined in the 1940 Act, this portfolio company is an “affiliate” as we own between 5.0% and 25.0% of the outstanding voting securities. Transactions during the year ended February 28, 2026 in which the issuer was an affiliate are as follows:

(1) Securities are exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and are restricted securities. Money market funds are valued at net asset value and are considered level 1 investments within the fair value hierarchy.
(2) Current yield as of February 28, 2025, was approximately 4.28% on the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund.
(a) Represents an investment that is not a “qualifying asset” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act”). As of February 28, 2025, non-qualifying assets represent 4.0% of the Company’s portfolio at fair value.

(b) Percentages are based on net assets of $392,665,468 as of February 28, 2025.
(c) Because there is no “readily available market quotations” (as defined in the 1940 Act) for these investments, the fair values of these investments were determined using significant unobservable inputs and approved in good faith by our board of directors. These investments have been included as Level 3 in the Fair Value Hierarchy (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements).
(d) These securities are either fully or partially pledged as collateral under the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility (see Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements).

SARATOGA INVESTMENT CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
February 28, 2026
Note 1. Organization
Saratoga Investment Corp. (the “Company”,
“we”, “our” and “us”) is a non-diversified closed end management investment company incorporated
in Maryland that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company commenced operations on March 23, 2007 as GSC Investment Corp. and completed
the initial public offering (“IPO”) on March 28, 2007. The Company has elected, and intends to qualify annually, to be treated
for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser
extent, capital appreciation from its investments.
GSC Investment, LLC (the “LLC”) was
organized in May 2006 as a Maryland limited liability company. On March 21, 2007, the Company was incorporated and concurrently therewith
the LLC was merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving entity, in accordance with the procedure for such merger
in the LLC’s limited liability company agreement and Maryland law. In connection with such merger, each outstanding limited liability
company interest of the LLC was converted into a share of common stock of the Company.
On July 30, 2010, the Company changed its name
from “GSC Investment Corp.” to “Saratoga Investment Corp.” in connection with the consummation of a recapitalization
transaction.
The Company is externally managed and advised
by the investment adviser, Saratoga Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Manager” or “Saratoga Investment Advisors”),
pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement (the “Management Agreement”).
The Company has established wholly owned subsidiaries,
SIA-AAP, Inc., SIA-SAIS, Inc., SIA-ARC, Inc., SIA-Avionte, Inc., SIA-AX, Inc., SIA-G4, Inc., SIA-GH, Inc., SIA-MDP, Inc., SIA-PP Inc.,
SIA-SIQ, Inc., SIA-SZ, Inc., SIA-TG, Inc., SIA-TT, Inc. and SIA-Vector, Inc., which are structured as Delaware entities that are
treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are intended to facilitate its compliance with the requirements to be
treated as a RIC under the Code by holding equity or equity-like investments in portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies,
or LLCs (or other forms of pass through entities). These entities are consolidated for accounting purposes, but are not consolidated
for U.S. federal income tax purposes and may incur U.S. federal income tax expenses as a result of their ownership of portfolio companies.
Our wholly owned subsidiaries, Saratoga Investment
Corp. SBIC II LP (“SBIC II LP”) and Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC III LP (“SBIC III LP”, and together with SBIC
II LP, the “SBIC Subsidiaries”), received licenses to operate as small business investment companies from the SBA on August
14, 2019 and September 29, 2022, respectively. Each of the SBIC Subsidiaries provides up to $175.0 million in long-term capital in the
form of debentures guaranteed by the SBA. Our wholly owned subsidiary Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC LP (“SBIC LP”) repaid
its outstanding debentures and subsequently surrendered its license to the SBA on January 3, 2024, providing the Company access to all
undistributed capital of SBIC LP, and SBIC LP subsequently merged with and into the Company. Under current SBIC regulations, for two
or more SBICs under common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA debentures cannot exceed $350.0 million with at least $175.0
million in combined regulatory capital.
F-30
The Company has formed wholly owned special purpose
entities organized as Delaware limited liability companies, Saratoga Investment Funding II LLC (“SIF II”) and Saratoga Investment
Funding III LLC (“SIF III”) for the purpose of the Company’s credit facilities as described in Note 8, Borrowings.
On October 26, 2021, the Company and TJHA JV
I LLC (“TJHA”) entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement to co-manage Saratoga Senior Loan Fund I JV LLC (“SLF
JV”). SLF JV is under joint control and is not consolidated. SLF JV is invested in Saratoga Investment Corp Senior Loan Fund 2022-1
Ltd. (“SLF 2022”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of SLF JV. SLF 2022 was formed for the purpose of making investments
in a diversified portfolio of broadly syndicated first lien and second lien term loans or bonds in the primary and secondary markets.
On October 28, 2022, SLF 2022 issued $402.1 million of debt (the “2022 JV CLO Notes”) through a collateralized loan obligation
trust (the “JV CLO trust”). The 2022 JV CLO Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated October 28, 2022 (the “JV
Indenture”), with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (as successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association) (the
“Trustee”) serving as the trustee.
On September 24, 2025, the Company completed
the first refinancing of SLF 2022. This refinancing, among other things, extended SLF 2022’s investment period to October 2028.
As part of this refinancing, the Company purchased $8.8 million of the SLF 2022-1 Class E-R Notes tranche at par. Concurrently, the existing
$12.3 million of the SLF 2022-1 Class E Notes were repaid. The Company also paid $1.6 million of additional equity investment related
to the refinancing of SLF JV.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”),
are stated in U.S. Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned special purpose financing subsidiaries, SIF II,
SIF III, SBIC II LP, SBIC III LP, SIA-AAP, Inc., SIA-SAIS, Inc., SIA-ARC, Inc., SIA-Avionte, Inc., SIA-AX, Inc., SIA-G4, Inc., SIA-GH,
Inc., SIA-MDP, Inc., SIA-PP, Inc., SIA-SIQ, Inc., SIA-SZ, Inc., SIA-TG, Inc., SIA-TT Inc., and SIA-Vector, Inc. All intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All references made to the “Company,” “we,”
and “us” herein include Saratoga Investment Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries, except as stated otherwise.
The Company, SIF II, SIF III, SBIC II LP, and
SBIC III LP are all considered to be investment companies for financial reporting purposes and have applied the guidance in the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment
Companies (“ASC 946”). There have been no changes to the Company, SIF II, SIF III, SBIC II LP, or SBIC III LP’s
status as investment companies in accordance with ASC 946 during the year ended February 28, 2026.
Principles of Consolidation
Under the investment company rules and regulations
pursuant to ASC 946, the Company is precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or controlled operating
company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. As a result, the consolidated financial statements of the
Company include only the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The Company has determined that SLF JV is an
investment company under ASC 946; however, in accordance with such guidance the Company will generally not consolidate its investment
in a company other than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary. SLF JV is not a wholly owned investment company subsidiary as the
Company and TJHA each have an equal 50% voting interest in SLF JV and thus neither party has a controlling financial interest. Furthermore,
FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), concludes that in a joint venture where both members have equal decision-making
authority, it is not appropriate for one member to consolidate the joint venture since neither has control. Accordingly, the Company
does not consolidate its investment in SLF JV.
F-31
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of the accompanying consolidated
financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income, gains
(losses) and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Operating Segment
In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment
Reporting, the Company operates through two separate operating segments, with one primary core business segment and one non-core
segment, assessed as immaterial by management, resulting in only one reportable segment. The Company’s primary core segment invests
in various industries and separately evaluates the performance of each of its investment relationships. However, because each of these
investment relationships have similar business and economic characteristics, they have been aggregated into a single reportable segment.
The Company’s management and independent Board of Directors are the Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”). The Company
and the CODM evaluate and monitor performance of the business on an aggregated basis. Further, each investment is evaluated and managed
using similar processes and shared operations support functions such as deal origination, underwriting, loan and compliance administration
in addition to administrative functions of human resources, legal, finance and information technology. As the Company’s operations
comprise of a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.
The CODM uses our consolidated net investment
income and net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations as reported in the Consolidated Statements
of Operations to assess the Company’s performance and when allocating resources. Net investment income is comprised of total investment
income (’segment revenues’), and total expenses (‘total segment expenses’) and operating expenses
(“segment operating expenses”), which are considered the key segment measures of profit or loss received by the CODM. The
expense categories included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations are fully reflective of the significant expense
categories and amounts that are regularly provided to the CODM. For the years ended 2026, 2025 and 2024, operating expenses totaled $12.6
million, $12.2 million and $10.4 million, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term,
liquid investments in a money market fund. The Company places its cash in financial institutions and, at times, such balances may be
in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates
fair value. Pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act, the Company may not invest in another investment company, such as a money
market fund, if such investment would cause the Company to:
● own more than 3.0% of the investment company’s total outstanding voting stock;
● hold securities in the investment company having an aggregate value in excess of 5.0% of the value of the Company’s total assets; or
● hold securities in investment companies having an aggregate value in excess of 10.0% of the value of the Company’s total assets.
As of February 28, 2026, the Company did not
exceed any of these limitations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Reserve Accounts
Cash and cash equivalents, reserve accounts include
amounts held in designated bank accounts in the form of cash and short-term liquid investments in money market funds, and, at times, such
balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits, representing payments received on secured investments
or other reserved amounts associated with the credit facilities held by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, SIF II and SIF
III, respectively. The Company is required to use these amounts to pay interest expense, reduce borrowings, or pay other amounts in accordance
with the terms of the credit facilities, after which these amounts are available for general corporate purposes.
F-32
In addition, cash and cash equivalents, reserve
accounts also include amounts held in designated bank accounts, in the form of cash and short-term liquid investments in money market
funds, within the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP.
The statements of cash flows explain the change
during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents
when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts.
The following table provides a reconciliation
of cash and cash equivalents and cash and cash equivalents, reserve accounts reported within the consolidated statements of assets and
liabilities that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:

Investment Classification
The Company classifies its investments in accordance
with the requirements of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, “control investments” are defined as investments in companies
in which the Company owns more than 25.0% of the voting securities or maintains greater than 50.0% of the board representation. Under
the 1940 Act, “affiliated investments” are defined as those non-control investments in companies in which the Company owns
between 5.0% and 25.0% of the voting securities. Under the 1940 Act, “non-affiliated investments” are defined as investments
that are neither control investments nor affiliated investments.
Investment Valuation
The Company accounts for its investments at fair
value in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes
a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value and
enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC 820 requires the Company to assume that its investments are to be sold
or its liabilities are to be transferred at the measurement date in the principal market to independent market participants, or in the
absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market, which may be a hypothetical market. Market participants are defined as
buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.
Investments for which market quotations are readily
available are fair valued at such market quotations obtained from independent third-party pricing services and market makers subject
to any decision by the Company’s board of directors to approve a fair value determination to reflect significant events affecting
the value of these investments. The Company values investments for which market quotations are not readily available at fair value as
approved, in good faith, by the Company’s board of directors based on input from the Manager, the audit committee of the board
of directors and a third-party independent valuation firm.
The Company undertakes a multi-step valuation
process each quarter when valuing investments for which market quotations are not readily available, as described below:
●
each investment is initially valued by the responsible
investment professionals of the Manager and preliminary valuation conclusions are documented, reviewed and discussed with our senior
management; and
●
an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company’s
board of directors independently reviews a selection of these preliminary valuations each quarter so that the valuation of each investment
for which market quotes are not readily available is reviewed by the independent valuation firm at least once each fiscal year. The
Company uses a third-party independent valuation firm to value its investment in the subordinated notes of Saratoga Investment Corp.
CLO 2013-1, Ltd. (“Saratoga CLO”), the Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO, and the Class E-R Notes of the SLF 2022
every quarter.
F-33
In addition, all investments are subject to the
following valuation process:
●
the audit committee of the Company’s board of
directors reviews and approves each preliminary valuation and the Manager and independent valuation firm (if applicable) will supplement
the preliminary valuation to reflect any comments provided by the audit committee; and
●
the Company’s board of directors discusses the
valuations and approves the fair value of each investment, in good faith, based on the input of the Manager, independent valuation
firm (to the extent applicable) and the audit committee of the board of directors.
The Company uses multiple techniques for determining
fair value based on the nature of the investment and experience with those types of investments and specific portfolio companies. The
selections of the valuation techniques and the inputs and assumptions used within those techniques often require subjective judgements
and estimates. These techniques include market comparables, the black-scholes model, discounted cash flows and enterprise value waterfalls.
Fair value is best expressed as a range of values from which the Company determines a single best estimate. The types of inputs and assumptions
that may be considered in determining the range of values of the Company’s investments include the nature and realizable value
of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, market yield trend analysis and volatility in future interest
rates, call and put features, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted
cash flows and other relevant factors.
The Company’s investments in the subordinated
notes of Saratoga CLO, Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO and the Class E-R Notes of SLF 2022 are carried at fair value, which is
based on a discounted cash flow valuation technique that utilizes prepayment, re-investment and loss inputs based on historical experience
and projected performance, economic factors, the characteristics of the underlying cash flow, and comparable yields for equity interests
in collateralized loan obligation funds, when available, as determined by the Manager and recommended to the Company’s board of
directors. Specifically, the Company uses Intex cash flows, or an appropriate substitute, to form the basis for the valuation of its
investment in the subordinated notes of Saratoga CLO, Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO and the Class E-R Notes of SLF 2022. The
inputs are based on available market data and projections provided by third parties as well as management estimates. The Company uses
the output from the Intex models (i.e., the estimated cash flows) to perform a discounted cash flow analysis on expected future cash
flows to determine the valuation for our investment in Saratoga CLO.
The Company’s equity investment in SLF
JV is measured using the proportionate share of the net asset value (“NAV”), or equivalent, of SLF JV as a practical expedient
for fair value, provided by ASC 820. The Company’s unsecured loan investment in SLF JV is based on a discounted cash flow valuation
technique.
The Company’s investments in CLO BB
and CLO BBB debt have been valued using recent actual market trades or an independent pricing service. The valuation methodology of
the independent pricing service includes incorporating data comprised of observable market transactions, executable bids, broker
quotes from dealers with two sided markets, as well as transaction activity from comparable securities to those being valued. As the
independent pricing service contemplates real-time market data and no unobservable inputs or significant judgment has been used by
Saratoga Investment Advisors in the valuation of the Company’s investments in CLO BB and CLO BBB debt, such positions are
considered level II assets.
Because such valuations, and particularly valuations
of private investments and private companies, are inherently uncertain, they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based
on estimates. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these
investments existed. The Company’s NAV could be materially affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of its investments
were materially higher or lower than the values that the Company ultimately realizes upon the disposal of such investments.
Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-5”)
establishes a regulatory framework for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 permits boards of
directors, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions, to designate the investment adviser to perform fair value determinations.
Rule 2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for
determining whether a fund must determine the fair value of a security. Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 31a-4”) provides
for certain recordkeeping requirements associated with fair value determinations. While the Company’s board of directors has not
elected to designate Saratoga Investment Advisors as the valuation designee, the Company has established policies and procedures in compliance
with the applicable requirements of Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4.
F-34
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for derivative financial
instruments in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires recognizing
all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities at fair value. The
Company values derivative contracts at the closing fair value provided by the counterparty. Changes in the values of derivative contracts
are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Investment Transactions and Income Recognition
Purchases and sales of investments and the related
realized gains or losses are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount,
is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. The Company stops accruing interest on
its investments when it is determined that interest is no longer collectible. Discounts and premiums on investments purchased are accreted/amortized
using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts
over the life of the investment and amortization of premiums on investments up to the earliest call date.
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status
when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Accrued interest is generally reserved when a loan is placed
on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as a reduction in principal depending upon management’s
judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and,
in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current, although management may make exceptions to this general rule if the loan
has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. At February 28, 2026 our investment in one portfolio company and
the Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO were on non-accrual status with a fair value of approximately $2.0 million,
or 0.2% of the fair value of our portfolio. At February 28, 2025, our investment in one portfolio company was on non-accrual status with
a fair value of approximately $2.6 million, or 0.3% of the fair value of our portfolio.
Interest income on our investment in the subordinated
note of Saratoga CLO is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 325-40, Investments—Other,
Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, based on the anticipated yield and the estimated cash flows over the projected
life of the investment. Yields are revised when there are changes in actual or estimated cash flows due to changes in prepayments and/or
re-investments, credit losses or asset pricing. Changes in estimated yield are recognized as an adjustment to the estimated yield over
the remaining life of the investment from the date the estimated yield was changed.
Payment-in-Kind Interest
The Company may hold debt and preferred equity
investments in its portfolio that contain a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest provision. The PIK interest, which represents
contractually deferred interest added to the investment balance that is generally due at maturity, is generally recorded on an accrual
basis to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected. The Company stops accruing PIK interest if it is expected that the issuer
will not be able to pay all principal and interest when due. The Company restores to accrual status when past due principal and interest
is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current, although management may make exceptions to this general rule
if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
Dividend Income
Dividend income is recorded in the consolidated
statements of operations when earned.
F-35
Structuring and Advisory Fee Income
Structuring and advisory fee
income represents various fee income earned and received for performing certain investment structuring and advisory activities during
the closing of new investments.
Other Income
Other income includes prepayment income fees,
and monitoring, administration, redemption and amendment fees and is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when earned.
Deferred Debt Financing Costs
Financing costs incurred in connection with our
credit facilities and notes are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the respective facility and debt
securities. Financing costs incurred in connection with the SBA debentures of SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP are deferred and amortized using
the straight-line method over the life of the debentures. Any discount or premium on the issuance of any debt is accreted and amortized
using the effective interest method over the life of the respective debt security.
The Company presents deferred debt financing
costs on the balance sheet as a contra-liability, which is a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent
with debt discounts.
Realized Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
Upon the repayment of debt obligations that are
deemed to be extinguishments, the difference between the principal amount due at maturity adjusted for any unamortized debt issuance
costs is recognized as a loss (i.e., the unamortized debt issuance costs are recognized as a loss upon extinguishment of the underlying
debt obligation).
Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company
may enter into contracts or agreements that contain indemnifications or warranties. Future events could occur that lead to the execution
of these provisions against the Company. Based on its history and experience, management reasonably believes that the likelihood of such
an event is remote. Therefore, the Company has not accrued any liabilities in connection with such indemnifications.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company
may directly or indirectly be a defendant or plaintiff in legal actions with respect to bankruptcy, insolvency or other types of proceedings.
Such lawsuits may involve claims that could adversely affect the value of certain financial instruments owned by the Company.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected, and intends to qualify
annually, to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under subchapter M of the Code. By meeting these requirements,
the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on ordinary income or capital gains timely distributed to stockholders.
Therefore, no provision has been recorded for federal income taxes, except as related to the Corporate Blockers (as defined below) and
long-term capital gains, when applicable.
In order to qualify as a RIC, among other requirements,
the Company generally is required to timely distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income”,
as defined by the Code, for each fiscal tax year. The Company will be subject to U.S. federal income tax imposed at corporate rates on
its investment company taxable income and net capital gains that it does not timely distribute to shareholders. The Company will be subject
to a non-deductible U.S. federal excise tax of 4% on undistributed income if it does not distribute at least (1) 98% of its net ordinary
income in any calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income for each one-year period ending on October 31and (3) certain undistributed
amounts from previous years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax.
F-36
Depending on the level of investment company
taxable income earned in a tax year and the amount of net capital gains recognized in such tax year, the Company may choose to carry
forward investment company taxable income and net capital gains in excess of current year dividend distributions into the next tax year
and pay U.S. federal income tax, and possibly the 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company
determines that its estimated current year annual investment company taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend
distributions for U.S. federal excise tax purposes, the Company accrues the U.S. federal excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable
income as taxable income is earned. For the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, the excise tax accrual
on estimated excess taxable income was $1.7 million, $2.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively.
In accordance with U.S. Treasury regulations
and published guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), a publicly offered RIC may treat a distribution of
its own stock as counting toward its RIC distribution requirements if each stockholder may elect to receive his, her, or its entire distribution
in either cash or stock of the RIC, subject to a limitation that the aggregate amount of cash to be distributed to all stockholders must
be at least 20% of the aggregate distribution. Under the published guidance, if too many stockholders elect to receive cash, the
cash available for distribution must be allocated among the stockholders electing to receive cash (with the balance of the distribution
paid in stock). In no event will any stockholder, electing to receive cash, receive less than 20% of his or her entire distribution in
cash. If these and certain other requirements are met, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of the dividend paid in stock
will be equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of stock.
The Company may utilize wholly owned holding
companies that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes when making equity investments in portfolio companies
taxed as pass-through entities to meet its source-of-income requirements as a RIC (“Corporate Blockers”). Corporate Blockers
are consolidated in the Company’s U.S. GAAP financial statements and may result in current and deferred U.S. federal and state
income tax expense with respect to income derived from those investments. Such income, net of applicable income taxes, is not included
in the Company’s taxable income until distributed by the Corporate Blocker, which may result in timing and character differences
between the Company’s income for U.S. GAAP purposes and the Company’s income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Income
tax expense or benefit from Corporate Blockers related to net investment income are included in total operating expenses, while any expense
or benefit related to federal or state income tax originated for capital gains and losses are included together with the applicable net
realized or unrealized gain or loss line item. Deferred tax assets of the Corporate Blockers are reduced by a valuation allowance when,
in the opinion of management, it is more-likely than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, (“ASC
740”), provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial
statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s
tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.
Tax positions deemed to meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current
period. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the consolidated
statements of operations. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 the Company did not
incur any interest or penalties. Although we file federal and state tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. The 2022, 2023,
2024 and 2025 federal tax years for the Company remain subject to examination by the IRS. At February 28, 2026, and February 28, 2025,
there were no uncertain tax positions. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total
amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in the next 12 months.
Dividends
Dividends to common stockholders are recorded
on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by the board of directors. Net realized capital gains,
if any, are generally distributed at least annually, although we may decide to retain some or all of our net capital gains for reinvestment.
We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan
(“DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of our dividend distributions on behalf of our stockholders unless a stockholder
elects to receive cash. As a result, if our board of directors authorizes, and we declare, a cash dividend, then our stockholders who
have not “opted out” of the DRIP by the dividend record date will have their cash dividends automatically reinvested into
additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving the cash dividends. We have the option to satisfy the share requirements
of the DRIP through the issuance of new shares of common stock or through open market purchases of common stock by the DRIP plan administrator.
F-37
Capital Gains Incentive Fee
The Company records an expense accrual on the
consolidated statements of operations relating to the capital gains incentive fee payable to the Manager, as recorded on the consolidated
statements of assets and liabilities when the net realized and unrealized gain on its investments exceed all net realized and unrealized
capital losses on its investments, as a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to the Manager if the Company were to liquidate its
investment portfolio at such time.
The actual incentive fee payable to the Manager
related to capital gains will be determined and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year and only reflect those realized capital
gains net of realized and unrealized losses for the period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09,
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires additional disaggregated information on income
taxes paid. This amended guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We have adopted ASU 2023-09
effective as of February 28, 2026, and concluded that the application of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements. See Note 6 in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, for further information.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03,
Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income
statement in response to requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses. The new standard requires disaggregation
of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. The new guidance
is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard
on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and does not believe it will have a material impact
on its consolidated financial statements or its disclosures.
Risk Management
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company
manages a variety of risks, including market and credit risk. Market risk is the risk of potential adverse changes to the value of investments
because of changes in market conditions such as interest rate movements and volatility in investment prices.
Credit risk is the risk of default or non-performance
by portfolio companies, equivalent to the investment’s carrying amount. The Company is also exposed to credit risk related to maintaining
all of its cash and cash equivalents, including those in reserve accounts, at a major financial institution and credit risk related to
any of its derivative counterparties.
The Company has investments in lower rated and
comparable quality unrated high yield bonds and bank loans. Investments in high yield investments are accompanied by a greater degree
of credit risk. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer is significantly greater for holders of high yield securities, because
such investments are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer.
Note 3. Investments
As noted above, the Company values all investments
in accordance with ASC 820. As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer
a liability in an orderly transaction between independent market participants at the measurement date.
ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework
which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability of inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price
observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment.
Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally
will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
F-38
Based on the observability of the inputs used
in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide disclosures on fair value measurements according to the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value hierarchy ranks the observability of the inputs used to determine fair values. Investments carried at fair value are classified
and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
●
Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
●
Level 2— Pricing inputs are other than quoted
prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Such inputs may be quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated
by observable market data for substantially the full character of the financial instrument, or inputs that are derived principally
from, or corroborated by, observable market information. Investments that are generally included in this category include illiquid
debt securities and less liquid, privately held or restricted equity securities, for which some level of recent trading activity
has been observed.
●
Level 3—Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment
and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs may be based on the Company’s
own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability or may use Level 2 inputs, as adjusted, to reflect
specific investment attributes relative to a broader market assumption. Even if observable market data for comparable performance
or valuation measures (earnings multiples, discount rates, other financial/valuation ratios, etc.) are available, such investments
are grouped as Level 3 if any significant data point that is not also market observable (private company earnings, cash flows,
etc.) is used in the valuation technique. We use multiple techniques for determining fair value based on the nature of the investment
and experience with those types of investments and specific portfolio companies. The selections of the valuation techniques and
the inputs and assumptions used within those techniques often require subjective judgements and estimates. These techniques include
market comparables, the black-scholes model, discounted cash flows and enterprise value waterfalls. Fair value is best expressed
as a range of values from which the Company determines a single best estimate. The types of inputs and assumptions that may be
considered in determining the range of values of our investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the
portfolio company’s ability to make payments, market yield trend analysis and volatility in future interest rates, call
and put features, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted
cash flows and other relevant factors.
In addition to using the above inputs in investment
valuations, the Company continues to employ the valuation policy approved by the board of directors that is consistent with ASC 820 and
the 1940 Act (see Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies). Consistent with our valuation policy, the Company evaluates
the source of inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading, in determining fair value.

For investments utilizing a market comparables
valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the market yield, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher)
fair value measurement, and a significant increase (decrease) in any of the earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization
(“EBITDA”) or revenue valuation multiples, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
For investments utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the discount rate, and prepayment
rate, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement while a significant increase (decrease) in
recovery rate, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing a market
quote, third party bid or net asset value in deriving a value, a significant increase (decrease) in the market quote, bid or net asset
value in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

For loans and debt securities for which market
quotations are not readily available, the Company determines their fair value based on third party indicative broker quotes, where available,
or the inputs that a hypothetical market participant would use to value the security in a current hypothetical sale using a market comparables
valuation technique. In applying the market comparables valuation technique, the Company determines the fair value based on such factors
as market participant inputs including synthetic credit ratings, estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate spreads
of similar securities as of the measurement date. If, in the Company’s judgment, the market comparables technique is not sufficient
or appropriate, the Company may use additional techniques such as an asset liquidation or expected recovery model.
F-42
For equity securities of portfolio companies and partnership interests,
the Company determines the fair value using an enterprise value waterfall valuation technique. Under the enterprise value waterfall valuation
technique, the Company determines the enterprise fair value of the portfolio company and then waterfalls the enterprise value over the
portfolio company’s securities in order of their preference relative to one another. To estimate the enterprise value of the portfolio
company, the Company weighs some or all of the traditional market valuation techniques and factors based on the individual circumstances
of the portfolio company in order to estimate the enterprise value. The techniques for performing investments may be based on, among other
things: valuations of comparable public companies, recent sales of private and public comparable companies, black-scholes modeling, discounting
the forecasted cash flows of the portfolio company, third party valuations of the portfolio company, considering offers from third parties
to buy the company, estimating the value to potential strategic buyers and considering the value of recent investments in the equity securities
of the portfolio company. For non-performing investments, the Company may estimate the liquidation or collateral value of the portfolio
company’s assets and liabilities. The Company also takes into account historical and anticipated financial results.
For CLO BB and CLO BBB debt, the Company determines
the fair value by using recent actual market trades or an independent pricing service. The valuation methodology of the independent pricing
service includes incorporating data comprised of observable market transactions, executable bids, broker quotes from dealers with two
sided markets, as well as transaction activity from comparable securities to those being valued.
The Company’s investments in Saratoga CLO
and SLF 2022 are carried at fair value, which is based on a discounted cash flow valuation technique that utilizes prepayment, re-investment
and loss inputs based on historical experience and projected performance, economic factors, the characteristics of the underlying cash
flow, and comparable yields for equity interests in collateralized loan obligation funds similar to Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022, when available,
as determined by the Manager and recommended to the Company’s board of directors. Specifically, the Company uses Intex cash flows,
or an appropriate substitute, to form the basis for the valuation of the investment in Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022. The cash flows use
a set of inputs including projected default rates, recovery rates, reinvestment rates and prepayment rates in order to arrive at estimated
valuations. The inputs are based on available market data and projections provided by third parties as well as management estimates.
The Company ran Intex models based on inputs about the refinanced Saratoga CLO’s structure and the SLF 2022 structure, including
capital structure, cost of liabilities and reinvestment period. The Company uses the output from the Intex models (i.e., the estimated
cash flows) to perform a discounted cash flow analysis on expected future cash flows to determine a valuation for our investments in
Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022 at February 28, 2026. The inputs at February 28, 2026 for the valuation model include:
● Default rate: 2.0%
●
Recovery rate: 70%
●
Discount rate: 8.50%–70.0%
●
Prepayment rate: 20.0%
●
Reinvestment rate / price:
S+365bps / $99.00
The Company’s equity investment in SLF
JV is measured using the proportionate share of the NAV of SLF JV, or equivalent, as practical expedient.

Note 4. Investment in Saratoga CLO
On January 22, 2008, the Company entered into
a collateral management agreement with Saratoga CLO, pursuant to which the Company acts as its collateral manager. The Saratoga CLO was
initially refinanced in October 2013 and November 2016 with its reinvestment period extended to October 2016 and October 2018, respectively.
On December 14, 2018, the Company completed a
third refinancing and upsize of the Saratoga CLO (the “2013-1 Reset CLO Notes”). The third Saratoga CLO refinancing, which,
among other things, extended its reinvestment period to January 2021, and extended its legal maturity date to January 2030. Following
this refinancing, the Saratoga CLO portfolio increased its aggregate principal amount from approximately $300.0 million to approximately
$500.0 million of predominantly senior secured first lien term loans.
On February 11, 2020, the Company entered into
an unsecured loan agreement (“CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2 Loan”) with Saratoga Investment Corp. CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2, Ltd. (“CLO
2013-1 Warehouse 2”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Saratoga CLO. During the fourth quarter ended February 28, 2021, the CLO 2013-1
Warehouse 2 Ltd. was repaid in full.
On February 26, 2021, the Company completed the
fourth refinancing of the Saratoga CLO, which, among other things, extended the Saratoga CLO reinvestment period to April 2024, extended
its legal maturity to April 2033, and added a non-call period of February 2022. In addition, and as part of the refinancing, the Saratoga
CLO was upsized from $500 million in assets to approximately $650 million. As part of this refinancing and upsizing, the Company invested
an additional $14.0 million in all of the newly issued subordinated notes of the Saratoga CLO, and purchased $17.9 million in aggregate
principal amount of the Class F-R-3 Notes tranche at par. Concurrently with the fourth refinancing of the Saratoga CLO, the existing
$2.5 million of Class F-R-2 Notes, $7.5 million of Class G-R-2 Notes and $25.0 million of the CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2 Loan were repaid.
The Company also paid $2.6 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing and upsizing on behalf of the Saratoga CLO, to be
reimbursed from future equity distributions. At August 31, 2021, the outstanding receivable of $2.6 million was repaid in full.
F-44
On August 9, 2021, the Company exchanged its
existing $17.9 million Class F-R-3 Note for $8.5 million Class F-1-R-3 Notes and $9.4 million Class F-2-R-3 Notes at par. On August 11,
2021, the Company sold its Class F-1-R-3 Notes to third parties, resulting in a realized loss of $0.1 million.
On June 10, 2024, the Company completed its fifth
refinancing of the Saratoga CLO, which adjusted the interest rate of two of the existing Notes. Saratoga CLO issued $422.5 million of
notes (the “2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes”), consisting of Class A-1-R-4 and Class A-2-R-4. The 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes
were issued pursuant to the Indenture with the same Trustee. Proceeds of the issuance of the 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were used along
with existing assets of the Saratoga CLO to redeem the existing Class A-1-R-3 and Class A-2-R-3 Notes. No other Notes were refinanced
as part of this refinancing. The Saratoga CLO paid $0.5 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing.
The Saratoga CLO remains effectively 100.0% owned
and managed by the Company. The Company receives a base management fee of 0.10% per annum and a subordinated management fee of 0.40%
per annum of the outstanding principal amount of Saratoga CLO’s assets, paid quarterly to the extent of available proceeds. Following
the third refinancing and the issuance of the 2013-1 Reset CLO Notes on December 14, 2018, the Company is no longer entitled to an incentive
management fee equal to 20.0% of excess cash flow to the extent the Saratoga CLO subordinated notes receive an internal rate of return
paid in cash equal to or greater than 12.0%.
For the years ended February 28, 2026, February
28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we accrued management fee income of $2.6 million, $3.1 million and $3.3 million, respectively, and interest
income of $0.0 million, $0.0 million and $0.0 million, respectively, from the Saratoga CLO.

Fair Value Measurements
As noted above, the Issuer values all investments
in accordance with ASC 820. ASC 820 requires enhanced disclosures about assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair
value. As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework
which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability of inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price
observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment.
Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally
will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Based on the observability of the inputs used
in the valuation techniques, the Issuer is required to provide disclosures on fair value measurements according to the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value hierarchy ranks the observability of the inputs used to determine fair values. Investments carried at fair value are classified
and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
●
Level 1— Valuations based on quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Issuer has the ability to access.
●
Level 2— Pricing inputs are other than quoted
prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Such inputs may be quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated
by observable market data for substantially the full character of the financial instrument, or inputs that are derived principally
from, or corroborated by, observable market information. Investments which are generally included in this category include illiquid
debt securities and less liquid, privately held or restricted equity securities, for which some level of recent trading activity
has been observed.
●
Level 3— Pricing inputs are unobservable for
the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs may be based
on the Company’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability or may use Level 2 inputs,
as adjusted, to reflect specific investment attributes relative to a broader market assumption. These inputs into the determination
of fair value may require significant management judgment or estimation. Even if observable market data for comparable performance
or valuation measures (earnings multiples, discount rates, other financial/valuation ratios, etc.) are available, such investments
are grouped as Level 3 if any significant data point that is not also market observable (private company earnings, cash flows, etc.)
is used in the valuation methodology.
In addition to using the above inputs in investment
valuations, the Issuer continues to employ the valuation policy that is consistent with ASC 820 and the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (“1940 Act”).

Significant unobservable inputs used in the fair
value measurement of the Level 3 term loans and equity interests include market quotations available from multiple dealers. A significant
increase (decrease) in the market quote, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Note 5. Investment in SLF JV
On October 26, 2021, the Company and TJHA entered
into the LLC Agreement to co-manage SLF JV. SLF JV is invested in Saratoga Investment Corp Senior Loan Fund 2021-1, Ltd (“SLF 2021”),
which is a wholly owned subsidiary of SLF JV. SLF 2021 was formed for the purpose of making investments in a diversified portfolio of
broadly syndicated first lien and second lien term loans or bonds in the primary and secondary markets.
On September 30, 2022, SLF 2021 was renamed to
Saratoga Investment Corp Senior Loan Fund 2022-1, Ltd. (“SLF 2022”).

The Company and TJHA have equal voting interest
on all material decisions with respect to SLF JV, including those involving its investment portfolio, and equal control of corporate
governance. No management fee is charged to SLF JV as control and management of SLF JV is shared equally.
F-72
The Company and TJHA have committed to provide
up to a combined $50.0 million of financing to SLF JV through cash contributions, with the Company providing $43.75 million and TJHA providing
$6.25 million, resulting in an 87.5% and 12.5% ownership between the two parties. The financing is issued in the form of an unsecured
loan and equity. The unsecured loan pays a fixed rate of 10% per annum and is due and payable in full on October 20, 2033. As of February
28, 2026, the Company and TJHA’s investment in SLF JV consisted of an unsecured loan of $17.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively;
and membership interest of $19.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively. As of February 28, 2025, the Company and TJHA’s investment
in SLF JV consisted of an unsecured loan of $17.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively; and membership interest of $17.6 million and
$2.5 million, respectively. As of February 28, 2026, and February 28, 2025, the Company’s investment in the unsecured note of SLF
JV had a fair value of $16.1 million and $16.5 million, respectively, and the Company’s investment in the membership interests of
SLF JV had a fair value of $1.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively.
The Company has determined that SLF JV is an
investment company under ASC 946; however, in accordance with such guidance the Company will generally not consolidate its investment
in a company other than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary. SLF JV is not a wholly owned investment company subsidiary as the
Company and TJHA each have an equal 50% voting interest in SLF JV and thus neither party has a controlling financial interest. Furthermore,
ASC 810 concludes that in a joint venture where both members have equal decision making authority, it is not appropriate for one member
to consolidate the joint venture since neither has control. Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate SLF JV.
For the year ended February 28, 2026, the Company
earned approximately $1.8 million of interest income related to SLF JV, which is included in interest income on the consolidated statement
of operations. As of February 28, 2026, approximately $0.2 million of interest income related to SLF JV was included in interest receivable
on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.
For the year ended February 28, 2025, the Company
earned approximately $1.8 million of interest income related to SLF JV, which is included in interest income on the consolidated statement
of operations. As of February 28, 2025, approximately $0.2 million of interest income related to SLF JV was included in interest receivable
on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.
For the year ended February 29, 2024, the Company
earned approximately $1.8 million of interest income related to SLF JV, which is included in interest income on the consolidated statement
of operations. As of February 29, 2024, approximately $0.2 million of interest income related to SLF JV was included in interest receivable
on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.
For the years ended February 28, 2026, and February
28, 2025 and 2024, the Company earned approximately $3.3 million, $4.0 million and $5.9 million of dividend related to SLF JV, which
is included in dividend income on control investments.
SLF JV’s initial investment in SLF 2022
was in the form of an unsecured loan. The unsecured loan paid a floating rate of LIBOR plus 7.00% per annum and was paid in full on June
9, 2023. The unsecured loan was repaid in full on October 28, 2022, as part of the CLO closing.
On October 28, 2022, SLF 2022 issued $402.1 million
of the 2022 JV CLO Notes through the JV CLO trust. The 2022 JV CLO Notes were issued pursuant to the JV Indenture, with the Trustee.
As part of the transaction, the Company purchased 87.5% of the Class E Notes from SLF 2022 with a par value of $12.3 million.
On September 24, 2025, the Company completed
the first refinancing of SLF 2022. This refinancing, among other things, extended the SLF 2022’s investment period to October 2028.
As part of this refinancing, the Company purchased $8.8 million of the SLF 2022-1 Class E-R Notes tranche at par. Concurrently, the existing
$12.3 million of the SLF 2022-1 Class E Notes were repaid. The Company also paid $1.6 million of additional equity investment related
to the refinancing to SLF JV.
As of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025,
the fair value of the Class E-R Notes were $8.4 million and $0.0 million, respectively. As of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025,
the fair value of the Class E Notes were $0.0 million and $12.3 million, respectively.

Note 6. Income Taxes
The Company has elected and intends to operate
so as to qualify annually to be taxed as a RIC under subchapter M of the Code and, as such, will not be subject to U.S. federal income
tax on the portion of taxable income and gains timely distributed to stockholders.
The Company owns 100% of Saratoga CLO, an exempted
company incorporated in the Cayman Islands. For financial reporting purposes, the Saratoga CLO is not included as part of the consolidated
financial statements. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company has requested and received approval from the IRS to treat the
Saratoga CLO as a disregarded entity. As such, for U.S. federal income tax purposes and for purposes of meeting the RIC qualification
and diversification tests, the results of operations of the Saratoga CLO are included with those of the Company to qualify as a RIC.
Generally, the Company is required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests in addition to timely distributing at least
90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. Because U.S. federal income tax regulations differ from U.S. GAAP,
distributions as required in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for
financial reporting purposes. Differences between these distributions and U.S. GAAP financial results may be permanent or temporary in
nature. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the consolidated financial statements to reflect their tax character.
Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
As of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025, the Company reclassified for book purposes amounts arising from permanent book/tax differences
primarily related to nondeductible U.S. federal excise and capital gains tax and income from wholly owned investments (dollars in thousands):

For U.S federal income tax purposes, distributions
paid to shareholders are reported as ordinary income, return of capital, long term capital gains or a combination thereof. The tax character
of distributions paid for the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 was as follows (dollars in thousands):

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, as of February
28, 2026, the aggregate net unrealized depreciation for all securities was $0.4 million. The aggregate cost of securities
for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $1.5 billion.
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, as of February
28, 2025, the aggregate net unrealized depreciation for all securities was $4.0 million. The aggregate cost of securities for U.S. federal
income tax purposes was $1.5 billion.
As of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025,
the components of accumulated losses on a tax basis as detailed below differ from the amounts reflected per the Company’s consolidated
statements of assets and liabilities by temporary book/tax differences primarily arising from the consolidation of the Saratoga CLO for
U.S federal tax purposes, market discount and original issue discount income, interest income accrual on defaulted bonds, write-off of
investments, and amortization of organizational expenditures and partnership interests (dollars in thousands).

At February 28, 2026, the Company had a short-term capital loss of $0.8 million and a long-term capital loss
of $83.5 million, available to offset future capital gains. At February 28, 2026, the company did not utilize any short-term
capital losses or long-term capital losses. Post RIC-modernization act losses are deemed to arise on the first day of the Company’s
following fiscal year and there is no expiration for these losses. As of February 28, 2025, the Company had net long-term capital losses
of $73.4 million.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned
in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions into the next
tax year and pay a 4.0% U.S. federal excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated
current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions for excise tax purposes, the Company
accrues excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned. For the calendar years ended December 31,
2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not distribute at least 98% of its ordinary income and 98.2% of its capital gains and accrued
$1.7 million and $2.4 million in U.S. federal excise taxes on undistributed taxable income for the years ended February 28, 2026 and
February 28, 2025, respectively.
Management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions taken on U.S. federal income tax returns for all open
years (fiscal years 2022- 2025) and has concluded that no provision for uncertain income tax positions is required in the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
SIA-AAP, Inc., SIA-SAIS, Inc., SIA-ARC,
Inc., SIA-Avionte, Inc., SIA-AX, Inc., SIA-G4, Inc., SIA-GH, Inc., SIA-MDP, Inc., SIA-PP Inc., SIA-SIQ, Inc., SIA-SZ, Inc., SIA-TG,
Inc., SIA-TT Inc., and SIA-Vector, Inc. each 100% owned by the Company, are each filing standalone C Corporation tax returns for U.S.
federal and state tax purposes. As separately regarded entities for tax purposes, these entities are subject to U.S. federal income tax
at corporate rates. For tax purposes, any distributions by the entities to the parent company would generally need to be distributed
to the Company’s shareholders. Generally, such distributions of the entities’ income to the Company’s shareholders
will be considered as qualified dividends for tax purposes. The entities’ taxable net income will differ from U.S. GAAP net income
because of deferred tax temporary differences arising from net operating losses and unrealized appreciation and deprecation of securities
held. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted corporate federal and state tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those net operating losses are utilized and the unrealized gains and losses are realized. Deferred tax assets
and deferred tax liabilities are netted off by entity, as allowed. The recoverability of deferred tax assets is assessed and a valuation
allowance is recorded to the extent that it is more likely than not that any portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized on
the basis of a history of operating losses combined with insufficient projected taxable income or other taxable events in the Corporate
Blockers.
The Company’s V Rental Holdings LLC Class
A-1 membership units were sold during the year ended February 28, 2022. The entity which held this investment, SIA-VR, Inc. will remain
in existence for a period of time until all ongoing indemnification obligations are settled, after which it will be dissolved.
The Company’s Texas Teachers of Tomorrow,
LLC common stock was sold during the year ended February 28, 2022. The entity which held this investment, SIA-TT, Inc. will remain in
existence for a period of time until all ongoing indemnification obligations are settled, after which it will be dissolved.
The Company’s GreyHeller LLC Series A preferred
units was sold during the year ended February 28, 2022. The entity which held this investment, SIA-TT, Inc. will remain in existence
for a period of time until all ongoing indemnification obligations are settled, after which it will be dissolved.
The Company may distribute a portion of its realized
net long term capital gains in excess of realized net short term capital losses to its stockholders, but may also decide to retain a
portion, or all, of its net capital gains and elect to pay the 21% U.S. federal tax on the net capital gain, potentially in the form
of a “deemed distribution” to its stockholders. Income tax (provision) relating to an election to retain its net capital
gains, including in the form of a deemed distribution, is included as a component of income tax (provision) benefit from realized gains
on investments, depending on the character of the underlying taxable income (ordinary or capital gains), on the consolidated statements
of operations.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities, and related
valuation allowances, as of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025, were as follows:

that we do not believe we will realize through future taxable income. Any adjustments to the Company’s valuation allowance will
depend on estimates of future taxable income and will be made in the period such determination is made.
Net deferred tax expense (benefit) for the year

The Company has remaining federal net operating loss carryforwards
of $2.4 million with an indefinite life. In addition, the Company has state net operating loss carryforwards of $2.2
million, which begin to expire in fiscal year 2029.
Income tax expense was computed by applying the
U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% combined with the weighted average state tax rate applicable to each Corporate Blocker based on the
states they operate in.
The Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC and intends to qualify annually
to eliminate corporate-level U.S. federal income tax, other than the 4% excise tax, by distributing at least 90% of its investment company
taxable income. As a result, the Company maintains an effective tax rate of 0% before the impact of excise taxes and income taxes incurred
by its Corporate Blockers, which are subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. As such, a reconciliation of the
differences between the Company’s reported income tax expense and the federal statutory rate of 21% is not meaningful.

Note 7. Agreements and Related Party Transactions
Investment Advisory and Management Agreement
On July 30, 2010, the Company entered into the
Management Agreement with the Manager. The initial term of the Management Agreement was two years from its effective date, with one-year
renewals thereafter subject to certain approvals by the Company’s board of directors and/or the Company’s stockholders. Most
recently, on July 7, 2025, the Company’s board of directors approved the renewal of the Management Agreement for an additional
one-year term. Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Manager implements the Company’s business strategy on a day-to-day basis
and performs certain services for the Company, subject to oversight by the board of directors. The Manager is responsible for, among
other duties, determining investment criteria, sourcing, analyzing and executing investments transactions, asset sales, financings and
performing asset management duties. Under the Management Agreement, the Company pays the Manager a management fee for investment advisory
and management services consisting of a base management fee and an incentive management fee.
F-76
Base Management Fee and Incentive Management
Fee
The base management fee of 1.75% per year is
calculated based on the average value of our gross assets (other than cash or cash equivalents, but including assets purchased with borrowed
funds) at the end of the two most recently completed fiscal quarters. The base management fee is paid quarterly following the filing
of the most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q.
The incentive management fee consists of the
following two parts:
The first, payable quarterly in arrears, equals
20% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the
end of the immediately preceding quarter, that exceeds a 1.875% quarterly hurdle rate measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter,
subject to a “catch-up” provision. Under this provision, in any fiscal quarter, the Manager receives no incentive fee unless
our pre-incentive fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.875%. The Manager will receive 100% of pre-incentive fee net
investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than or equal to 2.344% in any fiscal quarter; and 20% of the amount
of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 2.344% in any fiscal quarter. There is no accumulation of amounts
on the hurdle rate from quarter to quarter, and accordingly there is no claw back of amounts previously paid if subsequent quarters are
below the quarterly hurdle rate, and there is no delay of payment if prior quarters are below the quarterly hurdle rate.
The second part of the incentive fee is determined
and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Management Agreement) and equals 20.0% of the Company’s
“incentive fee capital gains,” which equals the Company’s realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from May 31,
2010 through the end of the fiscal year, if any, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a
cumulative basis on each investment in the Company’s portfolio, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive
fee. Importantly, the capital gains portion of the incentive fee is based on realized gains and realized and unrealized losses from May
31, 2010. Therefore, realized and unrealized losses incurred prior to such time will not be taken into account when calculating the capital
gains portion of the incentive fee, and the Manager will be entitled to 20.0% of incentive fee capital gains that arise after May 31,
2010. In addition, for the purpose of the “incentive fee capital gains” calculations, the cost basis for computing realized
gains and losses on investments held by us as of May 31, 2010 will equal the fair value of such investments as of such date.
For
the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, the Company incurred $17.8 million,
$18.4 million and $19.2 million in base management fees, respectively. For the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February
29, 2024, the Company incurred $9.2 million, $13.2 million and $8.0
million in incentive fees related to pre-incentive fee net investment income. For the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025
and February 29, 2024, the Company accrued $(1.0) million, $(5.9) million and $(8.3) million, respectively, in incentive fees related
to capital gains.
The accrual is calculated using both realized
and unrealized capital gains for the period. The actual incentive fee related to capital gains will be determined and payable in arrears
at the end of the fiscal year and will include only realized capital gains for the period. As of February 28, 2026, the base management
fees accrual was $4.6 million and the incentive fees accrual was $2.0 million and are included in base management and incentive fees
payable in the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. As of February 28, 2025, the base management fees accrual
was $4.2 million and the incentive fees accrual was $2.0 million and are included in base management and incentive fees payable in the
accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.
Administration Agreement
On July 30, 2010, the Company entered into a
separate administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with the Manager, pursuant to which the Manager, as the
Company’s administrator, has agreed to furnish the Company with the facilities and administrative services necessary to conduct
day-to-day operations and provide managerial assistance on the Company’s behalf to those portfolio companies to which the Company
is required to provide such assistance. The initial term of the Administration Agreement was two years from its effective date, with
one-year renewals thereafter subject to certain approvals by the Company’s board of directors and/or the Company’s stockholders.
Since its inception the amount of expenses payable or reimbursable by the Company under the Administration Agreement has been subject
to a cap that is reviewed annually in connection with the renewal of the Administration Agreement. Most recently, on July 7, 2025, the
Company’s board of directors approved the renewal of the Administration Agreement for an additional one-year term, and subsequently
also determined to increase the cap on the payment or reimbursement of expenses by the Company from $5.0 million to $5.4 million, effective
August 1, 2025. The Company’s board of directors will continue to assess the cap on payment or reimbursement of expenses on an
annual basis.
For the years ended February 28, 2026, February
28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we recognized $5.2 million, $4.7 million and $3.9 million in administrator expenses, respectively, pertaining
to bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided to the Company in addition to the Company’s allocable portion
of rent and other overhead related expenses. As of February 28, 2026, $0.6 million of administrator expenses were accrued and included
in due to Manager in the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. As of February 28, 2025, $0.3 million of administrator
expenses were accrued and included in due to Manager in the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Saratoga CLO
On December 14, 2018, the Company completed the
third refinancing and issuance of the 2013-1 Reset CLO Notes. This refinancing, among other things, extended the Saratoga CLO reinvestment
period to January 2021, and extended its legal maturity to January 2030. In addition, and as part of the refinancing, the Saratoga CLO
has also been upsized from $300 million in assets to approximately $500 million.
In conjunction with the third refinancing and

the Saratoga CLO was upsized from $500 million in assets to approximately $650 million. As part of this refinancing and upsizing, the
Company invested an additional $14.0 million in all of the newly issued subordinated notes of the Saratoga CLO, and purchased $17.9 million
in aggregate principal amount of the Class F-R-3 Notes tranche at par. Concurrently, the existing $2.5 million of Class F-R-2 Notes,
$7.5 million of Class G-R-2 Notes and $25.0 million CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2 Loan were repaid. The Company also paid $2.6 million of transaction

30, 2021, the outstanding receivable of 2.6 million was repaid in full.
On August 9, 2021, the Company exchanged its
existing $17.9 million Class F-R-3 Notes for $8.5 million Class F-1-R-3 Notes and $9.4 million Class F-2-R-3 Notes at par. On August
11, 2021, the Company sold its Class F-1-R-3 Notes to third parties, resulting in a realized loss of $0.1 million.
On June 10, 2024, the Company completed its fifth
refinancing of the Saratoga CLO. This refinancing, among other things, did not extend the Saratoga CLO reinvestment period nor extend
its legal maturity, while adjusting the interest rate of two of the existing Notes. The Issuer issued $422.5 million of notes, consisting
of Class A-1-R-4 and Class A-2-R-4. The 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture with the same Trustee. Proceeds
of the issuance of the 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were used along with existing assets of the Saratoga CLO to redeem the existing Class
A-1-R-3 and Class A-2-R-3 Notes. No other Notes were refinanced as part of this refinancing. The Saratoga CLO paid $0.5 million of transaction
costs related to the refinancing.

SLF JV
On October 26, 2021, the Company and TJHA entered
into an LLC Agreement to co-manage the SLF JV. SLF JV is a joint venture that invests in the debt or equity interests of collateralized
loan obligations, loan, notes and other debt instruments. The Company records interest income from its investment in an unsecured loan
with SLF JV on an accrual basis and records dividend income from its membership interest when earned. All operating decisions are shared
with a 50% voting interest in SLF JV.
On October 28, 2022, SLF 2022 issued $402.1 million
of the 2022 JV CLO Notes through the JV CLO trust. The 2022 JV CLO Notes were issued pursuant to the JV Indenture, with the Trustee.
As of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025
respectively, the Company’s investment in the SLF JV had a fair value of $17.7 million and $19.6 million, consisting of an unsecured
loan of $16.1 million and $16.5 million, and membership interest of $1.5 million and $3.1 million. In addition, approximately $0.2 million
and $0.2 million of interest income related to SLF JV was included in interest receivable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
For the years ended February 28, 2026, February

Note 8. Borrowings
As a BDC, we are only allowed to employ leverage
to the extent that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after giving effect to such leverage, or, 150%
if certain requirements under the 1940 Act are met. On April 16, 2018, as permitted by the Small Business Credit Availability Act, which
was signed into law on March 23, 2018, our board of directors, including a majority of our directors who are not “interested persons”
(as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act”) of the Company (“independent directors”), approved a minimum asset
coverage ratio of 150%, which became effective on April 16, 2019. The amount of leverage that we employ at any time depends on our assessment
of the market and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing. Our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, was 168.4%
as of February 28, 2026 and 162.9% as of February 28, 2025.
Encina Credit Facility
On October 4, 2021, the Company entered into
the Credit and Security Agreement (as amended from time to time, the “Encina Credit Agreement”) relating to a senior secured
revolving credit facility (the “Encina Credit Facility”) with Encina Lender Finance, LLC (“Encina”), supported
by loans held by SIF II and pledged to the Encina Credit Facility. The terms of the Encina Credit Facility required a minimum drawn amount
of $12.5 million at all times during period through April 4, 2022, which increased to the greater of $25.0 million or 50% of the commitment
amount in effect at any time thereafter. On January 27, 2023, we entered into the first amendment to the Encina Credit Agreement
which, among other things: (i) increased the borrowings available under the Encina Credit Facility from up to $50.0 million to up to
$65.0 million; (ii) changed the underlying benchmark used to compute interest under the Encina Credit Agreement from LIBOR to Term SOFR
for a one-month tenor plus a 0.10% credit spread adjustment; (iii) increased the applicable effective margin rate on borrowings from
4.00% to 4.25%; (iv) extended the revolving period from October 4, 2024 to January 27, 2026; (v) extended the period during which the
borrower may request one or more increases in the borrowings available under the Encina Credit Facility (each such increase,
a “Facility Increase”) from October 4, 2023 to January 27, 2025, and increased the maximum borrowings available pursuant
to the Encina Facility Increase from $75.0 million to $150.0 million; (vi) revised the eligibility criteria for eligible collateral loans
to exclude certain industries in which an obligor or related guarantor may be involved; and (vii) amended the provisions permitting the
borrower to request an extension in the Commitment Termination Date (as defined in the Encina Credit Agreement) to allow requests to
extend any applicable Commitment Termination Date, rather than a one-time request to extend the original Commitment Termination Date,
subject to a notice requirement.
F-79
In addition to any fees or other amounts payable
under the terms of the Encina Credit Facility, an administrative agent fee per annum equal to $0.1 million was payable in equal
monthly installments in arrears. The Company paid the lender a commitment fee of 0.75% per year (or 0.50% if the ratio of advances outstanding
to aggregate commitments was greater than or equal to 50%) on the unused amount of the Encina Credit Facility. Availability on the Encina
Credit Facility was subject to a borrowing base calculation, based on, among other things, applicable advance rates (which varied from
50.0% to 75.0% of par or fair value depending on the type of loan asset) and the value of certain “eligible” loan assets
included as part of the borrowing base. Funds could be borrowed at the greater of the prevailing one-month SOFR rate, plus an applicable
effective margin of 4.25%.
On November 6, 2025, the Company terminated in
full (i) the Encina Credit Agreement, and (ii) the Equity Pledge Agreement, dated as of October 4, 2021 (the “Encina Equity Pledge
Agreement”), by and between the Company and Encina, as collateral agent, and repaid all outstanding amounts. The Encina Credit
Agreement and the Encina Equity Pledge Agreement terminated upon the satisfaction of all obligations and liabilities of SIF II and the
Company to secured parties thereunder, including, without limitation, payments of principal and interest, other fees, breakage costs
and other amounts owing to the secured parties.
As of February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025,
there were $0.0 million and $32.5 million outstanding borrowings under the Encina Credit Facility. During the applicable periods, the
Company was in compliance with all of the limitations and requirements under the Encina Credit Agreement. The repayment and termination
of the Encina Credit Facility resulted in a realized loss on the extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million.
For the year ended February 28, 2026, February
28, 2025, and February 29, 2024, we recorded $2.2 million, $3.4 million and $3.9 million of interest expense related to the Encina Credit
Facility, respectively, which includes commitment and administrative agent fees. For the year ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025,
and February 29, 2024, we recorded $0.4 million, $0.5 million and $0.5 million of deferred financing costs related to the Encina Credit
Facility, respectively. Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs are reported as interest and debt financing expense
on the consolidated statements of operations. For the year ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025, and February 29, 2024, the weighted
average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under the Encina Credit Facility was 8.8%, 9.5%, and 9.7% respectively, and the average
dollar amount of outstanding borrowings under the Encina Credit Facility was $22.3 million, $33.1 million and $37.9 million, respectively.
Live Oak Credit Facility
On March 27, 2024, the Company and its wholly
owned special purpose subsidiary, SIF III, entered into a credit and security agreement (the “Live Oak Credit Agreement”),
by and among SIF III, as borrower, the Company, as collateral manager and equity holder, the lenders from time to time parties thereto,
Live Oak, as administrative agent and collateral agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as custodian, and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National
Association, as collateral administrator, relating to Live Oak Credit Facility.
F-80
The Live Oak Credit Facility originally provided
for borrowings in U.S. dollars in an aggregate amount of up to $50.0 million. During the first two years following the closing date,
SIF III may request one or more increases in the commitment amount from $50.0 million to an amount not to exceed $150.0 million,
subject to certain terms and conditions and a customary fee. The terms of the Live Oak Credit Agreement required a minimum drawn amount
of $12.5 million at all times during the period ended March 27, 2025 and, thereafter, the greater of: (i) $25.0 million and
(ii) 50% of the facility amount in effect at such time. The Live Oak Credit Facility matures on March 27, 2027. Advances are available
during the term of the Live Oak Credit Facility and must be repaid in full at maturity. SIF III may request an extension of the maturity
date by an additional one year, subject to the agreement of the lenders and an extension fee.
On June 14, 2024, the Company entered into the
first amendment to the Live Oak Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”). The Amendment, among other things:
● increased the borrowings available under the Live Oak Credit Facility from up to $50.0 million to up to $75.0 million, subject to a borrowing base requirement;
●
replaced administrative agent approval with “Required
Lender” (as defined in the Live Oak Credit Agreement) approval with respect to certain matters;
● replaced Required Lender approval with 100% lender approval with respect to certain matters; and
●
added new lenders (as identified
in the Amendment) to the Live Oak Credit Agreement;
●
changed the definition
of Required Lender to require the approval of at least two unaffiliated lenders.
Advances under the Live Oak Credit Facility are
subject to a borrowing base calculation, and the Live Oak Credit Facility has various eligibility criteria for loans to be included in
the borrowing base. Advances under the Live Oak Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to Adjusted Term SOFR
plus an applicable margin between 3.50% and 4.25% based on the Live Oak Credit Facility’s utilization. The Live Oak Credit
Agreement also provides for an unused fee of 0.50% on the unused commitments. SIF III’s obligations to the lenders under the
Live Oak Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of SIF III’s assets. In addition,
SIF III’s obligations to the lenders under the Live Oak Credit Facility are secured by a pledge by the Company of its equity interests
in SIF III, which is evidenced by the equity pledge agreement, dated as of March 27, 2024, by and between the Company, as pledgor, and
Live Oak, as collateral agent for the benefit of the secured parties.
In connection with the Live Oak Credit Agreement,
the Company entered into a loan sale and contribution agreement with SIF III, dated as of March 27, 2024, by and between the Company,
as seller, and SIF III, as purchaser, pursuant to which the Company will sell or contribute certain loans held by the Company to SIF
III to be used to support the borrowing base under the Live Oak Credit Facility. The Live Oak Credit Facility permits loan proceeds and
excess cash in SIF III’s collection accounts to be distributed to us at any time based on three business days advance notice, subject
to compliance with various conditions, including the absence of a default or event of default, the absence of an over-advance against
the borrowing base and the absence of a violation of the financial covenant.
As of February 28, 2026 there was $37.5 million
in outstanding borrowings under the Live Oak Credit Facility. During the applicable period, the Company was in compliance with all of
the limitations and requirements under the Live Oak Credit Agreement.
For the year ended February 28, 2026 and February
28, 2025, we recorded $3.3 million and $1.9 million of interest expense related to the Live Oak Credit Facility, respectively, which
includes commitment and administrative agent fees. For the year ended February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025, we recorded $0.4 million
and $0.3 million of deferred financing costs related to the Live Oak Credit Facility, respectively. Interest expense and amortization
of deferred financing costs are reported as interest and debt financing expense on the consolidated statements of operations. For the
year ended February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025, the weighted average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under the Live Oak
Credit Facility was 8.2% and 9.1%, respectively, and the average dollar amount of outstanding borrowings under the Live Oak Credit Facility
was $36.2 million and $18.0 million, respectively.
Our borrowing base under the Live Oak Credit
Facility was $99.2 million subject to the Live Oak Credit Facility cap of $75.0 million at February 28, 2026. For purposes of determining
the borrowing base, most assets are assigned the values set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q filed with the SEC. Accordingly, the February 28, 2026 borrowing base relies upon the valuations set forth in the Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended November 30, 2025. The valuations presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K will not be incorporated
into the borrowing base until after this Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed with the SEC.

Valley Credit Facility
On November 6, 2025, the Company entered into
a Credit and Security Agreement (the “Valley Credit Agreement”) establishing an $85.0 million senior secured revolving credit
facility with Valley, as administrative agent and as a lender, and certain other lenders, supported by loans held by SIF II and pledged
as collateral to secure the obligations under the Valley Credit Facility. The terms of the Valley Credit Facility require a minimum drawn
amount at all times equal to the greater of $25.0 million or 38% of the facility amount in effect at such time. The Valley Credit Facility
matures on November 6, 2028. The Valley Credit Facility has numerous eligibility criteria for loans to be included in the borrowing base.
The Valley Credit Agreement also requires SIF II to pay an unused fee on the amount by which the commitment amount exceeds outstanding
principal amounts on each day at a rate per annum equal to 0.75% if the unused amount is greater than 62% of the commitment amount, or
otherwise 0.50%.
In addition to any fees or other amounts payable
under the terms of the Valley Credit Facility, an administrative agent fee per annum equal to $35,000 is payable annually in advance.
As of February 28, 2026, there were $32.5 million
outstanding borrowings under the Valley Credit Facility. During the applicable periods, the Company was in compliance with all of the
limitations and requirements under the Valley Credit Agreement. Financing costs of $1.4 million related to the Valley Credit Facility
have been capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the facility, with all existing financing costs amortized through November
6, 2028.
For the period from November 6, 2025 through February
28, 2026, we recorded $0.8 million of interest expense related to the Valley Credit Facility, which includes commitment and administrative
agent fees. For the period from November 6, 2025 through February 28, 2026, we recorded $0.03 million of deferred financing costs related
to the Valley Credit Facility, including arranger fees. Interest expense and amortization of deferred financing costs are reported as
interest and debt financing expense on the consolidated statements of operations. For the period from November 6, 2025 through February
28, 2026, the weighted average interest rate on the outstanding borrowings under the Valley Credit Facility was 6.8%, and the average
dollar amount of outstanding borrowings under the Valley Credit Facility was $10.2 million.
The Valley Credit Facility contains limitations
as to how borrowed funds may be used, such as restrictions on industry concentrations, asset size, weighted average life, currency denomination
and collateral interests. The Valley Credit Facility also includes certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, the violation
of which could result in the limit of further advances and, in some cases, result in an event of default if not cured in the prescribed
period, allowing the lenders to accelerate repayment of amounts owed thereunder. Availability on the Valley Credit Facility is subject
to a borrowing base calculation, with advance rates on eligible loans ranging from 25% to 75%. Advances under the Valley Credit Facility
bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 2.85%, with a SOFR Floor of 1.00%.
Our borrowing base under the Valley Credit Facility
was $77.1 million subject to the Valley Credit Facility cap of $85.0 million at February 28, 2026. For purposes of determining the borrowing
base, most assets will be assigned the values set forth in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
filed with the SEC. Accordingly, the February 28, 2026 borrowing base relies upon the valuations set forth in the Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the period ended November 30, 2025. The valuations presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K will not be incorporated
into the borrowing base until after this Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed with the SEC.
SBA Debentures
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries,
SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP, received SBIC licenses from the SBA on August 14, 2019 and September 29, 2022, respectively. Each of the
SBIC Subsidiaries provide up to $175.0 million in long-term capital in the form of debentures guaranteed by the SBA. The Company’s
wholly owned subsidiary, SBIC LP, repaid its outstanding debentures and subsequently surrendered its license to the SBA on January 3,
2024, providing the Company access to all undistributed capital of SBIC LP, and SBIC LP subsequently merged with and into the Company.
Under current SBIC regulations, for two or more SBICs under common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA debentures cannot exceed
$350.0 million.
SBICs are designed to stimulate the flow of private
equity capital to eligible small businesses. Under SBA regulations, SBICs may make loans to eligible small businesses and invest in the
equity securities of small businesses. Under present SBA regulations, eligible small businesses include businesses that have a tangible
net worth not exceeding $24.0 million and have average annual fully taxed net income not exceeding $8.0 million for the two most recent
fiscal years. In addition, an SBIC must devote 25.0% of its investment activity to “smaller enterprises” as defined by the
SBA. A smaller enterprise is one that has a net worth not exceeding $6.0 million and has an average annual fully taxed net income not
exceeding $2.0 million for the two most recent fiscal years. SBA regulations also provide alternative size standard criteria to determine
eligibility, which depend on the industry in which the business is engaged and are based on such factors as the number of employees and
gross sales. According to SBA regulations, SBICs may make long-term loans to small businesses, invest in the equity securities of such
businesses and provide them with consulting and advisory services.
F-82
The SBIC Subsidiaries are able to borrow funds
from the SBA against each SBIC’s regulatory capital (which generally approximates equity capital in the respective SBIC). The SBIC
Subsidiaries are subject to customary regulatory requirements including but not limited to, a periodic examination by the SBA and requirements
to maintain certain minimum financial ratios and other covenants. Receipt of an SBIC license does not assure that the SBIC Subsidiaries
will receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, which is dependent upon the SBIC Subsidiaries complying with SBA regulations and policies.
The SBA, as a creditor, will have a superior claim to each SBIC Subsidiary’s assets over the Company’s stockholders and debtholders
in the event that the Company liquidates such SBIC Subsidiary or the SBA exercises its remedies under the SBA-guaranteed debentures issued
by the SBIC Subsidiary upon an event of default.
The Company received exemptive relief from the
SEC to permit it to exclude the debentures guaranteed by the SBA of the SBIC Subsidiaries from the definition of senior securities in
the asset coverage test under the 1940 Act. This allows the Company increased flexibility under the asset coverage requirement by permitting
it to borrow up to $350.0 million more than it would otherwise be able to absent the receipt of this exemptive relief.
As of February 28, 2026, we have funded SBIC II
LP and SBIC III LP with an aggregate total of equity capital of $87.5 million and $87.5 million, respectively, and have $160.0 million
in SBA-guaranteed debentures outstanding, of which $84.0 million was held by SBIC II LP and $76.0 million held in SBIC III LP.
At February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025,
there was $160.0 million and $170.0 million outstanding of SBA debentures, respectively. The carrying amount of the amount
outstanding of SBA debentures approximates its fair value, which is based on a waterfall analysis showing adequate collateral
coverage and would be classified as a Level 3 liability within the fair value hierarchy. Financing costs of $5.0 million, $6.0
million, and $1.2 million related to the SBA debentures issued by SBIC LP, SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP, respectively, have been
capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the commitment and drawdown. During the year ended February 28, 2026, the
Company repaid $10.0 million of SBA debentures in SBIC II LP, resulting in a realized loss on extinguishment of $0.7 million related
to the acceleration of deferred debt financing costs.
For the years ended February 28, 2026, February
28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we recorded $5.1 million, $7.1 million and $6.2 million of interest expense related to the SBA debentures,
respectively. For the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we recorded $0.7 million, $0.9 million
and $1.0 million of amortization of deferred financing costs related to the SBA debentures, respectively. Interest expense and amortization
of deferred financing costs are reported as interest and debt financing expense on the consolidated statements of operations. The weighted
average interest rate during the years ended February 28, 2026, February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 on the outstanding borrowings
of the SBA debentures was 3.06%, 3.32% and 3.08%, respectively. During the years ended February 28, 2026 and February 28, 2025, the average
dollar amount of SBA debentures outstanding was $167.5 million and $213.8 million, respectively.
