Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
------------------------------------------
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which include the
accounts of Capital Southwest Corporation, its wholly-owned small business
investment company subsidiary and its wholly-owned management company (the
"Company"), have been prepared on the fair value basis in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for investment
companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to the
2002 balances to conform with the 2003 financial statement presentation.
The financial statements included herein have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
6 of Regulation S-X. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2003. Certain
information and footnotes normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate for a fair presentation. The information reflects all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for the interim periods.
2. Stock-Based Compensation
Effective April 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value method of
recording compensation expense related to all stock options granted after March
31, 2003, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Nos.
123 and 148. No stock options have been granted since March 31, 2003; therefore,
under the prospective method of adoption selected by the Company, no stock-based
compensation has been recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
The following table illustrates the effect on net asset value and net
asset value per share as if the fair value method had been applied to all
outstanding options granted since January 1, 1995 in each period.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Net asset value at December 31, 2003 was $244,208,721, equivalent to
$63.31 per share after deducting an allowance of $22.23 per share for deferred
taxes on net unrealized appreciation of investments. Assuming reinvestment of
all dividends, the December 31, 2003 net asset value reflects an increase of
6.2% during the preceding three months and increases of 18.6% during both the
nine months of the current fiscal year and the past twelve months.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)
Results of Operations
The composite measure of the Company's financial performance in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations is captioned "Increase (decrease) in net
assets from operations" and consists of three elements. The first is "Net
investment income", which is the difference between the Company's income from
interest, dividends and fees and its combined operating and interest expenses,
net of applicable income taxes. The second element is "Net realized gain (loss)
on investments", which is the difference between the proceeds received from
disposition of portfolio securities and their stated cost, net of applicable
income tax expense. The third element is the "Net increase (decrease) in
unrealized appreciation of investments", which is the net change in the market
or fair value of the Company's investment portfolio, compared with stated cost,
net of an increase or decrease in deferred income taxes which would become
payable if the unrealized appreciation were realized through the sale or other
disposition of the investment portfolio. It should be noted that the "Net
realized gain (loss) on investments" and "Net increase (decrease) in unrealized
appreciation of investments" are directly related in that when an appreciated
portfolio security is sold to realize a gain, a corresponding decrease in net
unrealized appreciation occurs. Conversely, when a loss is realized on a
depreciated portfolio security, an increase in net unrealized appreciation
occurs.
Net Investment Income
Interest income in the nine months ended December 31, 2003 decreased
from the corresponding period ended December 31, 2002 primarily because of a
decrease in loans to portfolio companies. During the nine months ended December
31, 2003 and 2002, the Company recorded dividend income from the following
sources:

========== ==========
Interest expense in the nine months ended December 31, 2003 increased
from the corresponding period ended December 31, 2002 primarily due to an
increase in borrowings offset by a decrease in interest rates and the repayment
of the subordinated debenture on June 3, 2002.
Net Increase (Decrease) in Unrealized Appreciation of Investments
Set forth in the following table are the significant increases and
decreases in unrealized appreciation (before the related change in deferred
taxes and excluding the effect of gains or losses realized during the periods)

As reflected in the above table, at December 31, 2003, the value of our
investment in Palm Harbor Homes, Inc. remained unchanged from the March 31, 2003
value, reflecting a continuation of the depressed manufactured housing market.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2002, the value of our investment in
Palm Harbor Homes, Inc. was reduced significantly due to the increasingly
unfavorable outlook for the manufactured housing industry. At December 31, 2003,
the value of our investment in Encore Wire Corporation was increased by
$19,071,000 due to the significant increase in Encore's sales and earnings which
stemmed partly from higher copper prices. In the prior period, we experienced a
significant decline in the value of our investment in Encore Wire Corporation,
which was reduced during the nine months by $10,898,000, as overcapacity in the
electric wire and cable industry led to intense price competition and lower
profit margins.
Portfolio Investments
During the quarter ended December 31, 2003, the Company made additional
investments of $2,204,263 in existing portfolio companies.
The Company has commitments, subject to certain conditions, to invest
up to $3,600,025 in five portfolio companies as requested by management.
Financial Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2003, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $2.1 million. Pursuant to Small Business Administration ("SBA")
regulations, cash and cash equivalents of $494,000 held by Capital Southwest
Venture Corporation ("CSVC") may not be transferred or advanced to Capital
Southwest Corporation without the consent of the SBA. Under current SBA
regulations and subject to SBA's approval of its credit application, CSVC would
be entitled to borrow up to $63.8 million. The Company also has an unsecured
$25.0 million revolving line of credit from a commercial bank, of which $9.5
million was available at December 31, 2003. With the exception of a capital gain
distribution made in the form of a distribution of the stock of a portfolio
company in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, the Company has elected to
retain all gains realized during the past 35 years. Retention of future gains is
viewed as an important source of funds to sustain the Company's investment
activity. Approximately $37.0 million of the Company's investment portfolio is
represented by unrestricted publicly-traded securities, which have an
ascertainable market value and represent a primary source of liquidity.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)
Funds to be used by the Company for operating or investment purposes
may be transferred in the form of dividends, management fees or loans from
Skylawn Corporation, The RectorSeal Corporation and The Whitmore Manufacturing
Company, wholly-owned portfolio companies of the Company, to the extent of their
available cash reserves and borrowing capacities. At December 31, 2003, the
Company owed $7,500,000 to Skylawn Corporation.
Management believes that the Company's cash and cash equivalents and
cash available from other sources described above are adequate to meet its
expected requirements. Consistent with the long-term strategy of the Company,
the disposition of investments from time to time may also be an important source
of funds for future investment activities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is subject to financial market risks, including changes in
marketable equity security prices. The Company does not use derivative financial
instruments to mitigate any of these risks. The return on the Company's
investments is not materially affected by foreign currency fluctuations.
The Company's investment in portfolio securities consists of fixed rate
debt securities which totaled $4,016,874 at December 31, 2003, equivalent to
1.2% of the value of the Company's total investments. Since these debt
securities usually have relatively high fixed rates of interest, minor changes
in market yields of publicly-traded debt securities have little or no effect on
the values of debt securities in the Company's portfolio and no effect on
interest income. The Company's investments in debt securities are generally held
to maturity and their fair values are determined on the basis of the terms of
the debt security and the financial condition of the issuer.
A portion of the Company's investment portfolio consists of debt and
equity securities of private companies. The Company anticipates little or no
effect on the values of these investments from modest changes in public market
equity valuations. Should significant changes in market valuations of comparable
publicly-owned companies occur, there may be a corresponding effect on
valuations of private companies, which would affect the value and the amount and
timing of proceeds eventually realized from these investments. A portion of the
Company's investment portfolio also consists of restricted common stocks of
publicly-owned companies. The fair values of these restricted securities are
influenced by the nature of applicable resale restrictions, the underlying
earnings and financial condition of the issuers of such restricted securities
and the market valuations of comparable publicly-owned companies. A portion of
the Company's investment portfolio also consists of unrestricted, freely
marketable common stocks of publicly-owned companies. These freely marketable
investments, which are valued at the public market price, are directly exposed
to equity price risks, in that a change in an issuer's public market equity
price would result in an identical change in the value of the Company's
investment in such security.
