You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report, before you decide whether to make an investment in our securities. The risks set forth below are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or not presently deemed material by us, may also impair our operations and performance. If any of the adverse events or conditions described below occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case, our NAV, and the trading price of our common stock could decline, or the value of our preferred stock, debt securities, and warrants, if any are outstanding, may decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The risk factors described below are the principal risk factors associated with an investment in our securities as well as those factors generally associated with an investment company with investment objectives, investment policies, capital structure or trading markets similar to ours.

The summary below provides an overview of many of the risks we face that are described in this section. Additional risks, beyond those summarized below or discussed in this section, may also materially and adversely impact our business, financial conditions and results of operation. Consistent with the foregoing, the risks we face include, but are not limited to, the following: Risks Relating to Our Business •We are subject to risks related to corporate social responsibility. •Inflation can adversely impact our cost of capital and the value of our portfolio investments. •Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability, and we cannot predict when these conditions occur. Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets in the United States and abroad, which may have a negative impact on our business and operations. •Global economic, political and market conditions, including uncertainty about the financial or political stability of the United States, could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. •Trade negotiations and other government actions may create regulatory uncertainty for the portfolio companies and our investment strategy and adversely affect the profitability of the portfolio companies. •Events outside of our control, including public health crises, may have a negative impact on our portfolio companies and our business and operations. •Legislative or other actions relating to taxes could have a negative effect on us. 32 •Changes in interest rates may adversely affect the value of our portfolio investments which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. •Volatility in the global financial markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. •Our financial condition and results of operations will depend on our ability to manage our future growth effectively. •We fund a portion of our investments with borrowed money, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and may increase the risk of investing in us. •We need to raise additional capital to grow because we must distribute most of our income. •Our business model depends upon the development and maintenance of strong referral relationships with other asset managers and investment banking firms. Risks Relating to Our Operation as a Business Development Company •If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could fail to qualify as a BDC or be precluded from investing according to our current business strategy. •If we fail to qualify as a RIC, we will have to pay corporate-level taxes on our income, and our income available for distribution would be reduced. •We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income. •Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to raise, and the way in which we raise, additional capital. These constraints may hinder our Investment Adviser’s ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and to achieve our investment objective. •Securitization of our assets subjects us to various risks. •Our ability to invest in public companies may be limited in certain circumstances. Risks Relating to Our Investments •We may not realize gains or income from our investments. •Most of our portfolio investments are recorded at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of our Board of Directors and, as a result, there is uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments. •Price declines and illiquidity in the corporate debt markets have adversely affected, and may in the future adversely affect, the fair value of our portfolio investments, reducing our net asset value through increased net unrealized depreciation. •Our investments in prospective portfolio companies may be risky and we could lose all or part of our investment. •The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business. •Economic recessions or downturns could impair our portfolio companies and harm our operating results. •Investments in equity securities, many of which are illiquid with no readily available market, involve a substantial degree of risk. •Our portfolio contains a limited number of portfolio companies, some of which comprise a substantial percentage of our portfolio, which subjects us to a greater risk of significant loss if any of these companies defaults on its obligations under any of its debt securities. •Our investments in CLOs may be riskier and less transparent to us and our stockholders than direct investments in the underlying companies. •Investments in covenant-lite loans may expose us to different and increased risks. Risks Relating to Our Securities •Our credit ratings may not reflect all risks of an investment in our debt securities. •Senior securities, including debt and preferred equity, expose us to additional risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. •We have entered into dealer manager agreements and underwriting agreements pursuant to which we intend to sell shares of preferred stock, the terms of which could result in significant dilution to existing common stockholders. •Holders of any preferred stock we might issue would have the right to elect members of the Board of Directors and class voting rights on certain matters. •The trading market or market value of our publicly traded preferred stock may fluctuate. •In addition to regulatory restrictions that restrict our ability to raise capital, our credit facility contains various covenants which, if not complied with, could accelerate repayment under the facility, thereby materially and adversely affecting our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. •Failure to refinance our existing Unsecured Notes could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. •The trading market or market value of our publicly issued debt securities may fluctuate. •Our shares of common stock currently trade at a discount from net asset value and may continue to do so in the future, which could limit our ability to raise additional equity capital. 33 •Investing in our securities may involve a high degree of risk and is highly speculative. •Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law and of our charter and bylaws could deter takeover attempts and have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. General Risk Factors •We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly results. Risks Relating to Our Business We are subject to risks related to corporate social responsibility. Our business faces increasing public scrutiny related to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) activities. We risk damage to our brand and reputation if we fail to act responsibly in a number of areas, such as environmental stewardship, corporate governance, transparency and consideration of ESG factors in our investment processes. Adverse incidents with respect to ESG activities could impact the value of our brand, the cost of our operations and relationships with investors, all of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Additionally, new regulatory initiatives related to ESG could adversely affect our business, our portfolio companies and the value of your investment in our business. Inflation can adversely impact our cost of capital and the value of our portfolio investments. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. Although generally decelerating, inflation remains above the U.S. Federal Reserve’s target levels. Although the Federal Reserve held interest rates steady through much of 2025 before reducing rates in September, October and December 2025, rates remain elevated relative to the interest rate environment prior to the inflationary spike in 2022-2023, and it remains difficult to predict the full impact of recent and any future changes with respect to interest rates or inflation. If inflation increases, the real value of our common stock and distributions therefore may decline. In addition, during any periods of rising inflation, the interest rates of debt securities we issue would likely increase, which would tend to further reduce returns to common stockholder; likewise, as interest rates increase, the value of our debt investments would decrease, though this effect can be less pronounced for floating rate instruments. This could also lead to decreased asset coverage for our outstanding debt and preferred stock. Inflation rates may change frequently and significantly as a result of various factors, including unexpected shifts in the domestic or global economy and changes in economic policies, and our investments may not keep pace with inflation, which may result in losses to our stockholders. This risk is greater for fixed-income instruments with longer maturities. Capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability, and we cannot predict when these conditions occur. Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets in the United States and abroad, which may have a negative impact on our business and operations. From time to time, capital markets may experience periods of disruption and instability, which may be evidenced by a lack of liquidity in debt capital markets, write-offs in the financial services sector, the re-pricing of credit risk, the failure of certain financial institutions, or worsening of general economic condition, any of which could materially and adversely impact the broader financial and credit markets and reduce the availability of debt and equity capital for the market as a whole and financial services firms in particular. There can be no assurance these market conditions will not occur or worsen in the future, including economic and political events in or affecting the world’s major economies, such as the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Iran, Hamas and other militant groups in the Middle East, including the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran in February 2026, political unrest in South America and recent U.S. military action overseas. Sanctions imposed by the U.S. and other countries in connection with hostilities between Russia and Ukraine and the tensions between China and Taiwan have caused additional financial market volatility and affected the global economy. Concerns over future inflation volatility, economic recession, fluctuations in oil and gas prices resulting from global production and demand levels, changes regarding immigration and work permit policies and other political and security concerns may not abate, which may cause the debt and equity capital markets, and as a result, our business, to be adversely affected both within and outside of regions experiencing ongoing conflict. Market uncertainty and volatility have also been magnified as a result of the 2024 U.S. presidential and congressional elections and resulting uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in U.S. and foreign, trade, economic and other policies, including with respect to treaties and tariffs. In addition to impacting the capital markets, global economic, political and market conditions could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Equity capital may be difficult to raise during such periods of adverse or volatile market conditions because subject to some limited exceptions, as a BDC, we are generally not able to issue additional shares of our common stock at a price less than net asset value without general approval by our stockholders, which we currently have until July 7, 2027, and approval of the 34 specific issuance by our Board of Directors. In addition, our ability to incur indebtedness or issue preferred stock is limited by applicable regulations such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, must equal at least 150% immediately after each time we incur indebtedness or issue preferred stock. The debt capital that may be available, if at all, may be at a higher cost and on less favorable terms and conditions in the future. Any inability to raise capital could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Market conditions may in the future make it difficult to extend the maturity of or refinance our existing indebtedness, including the final maturity of our revolving credit facility in June 2029, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business. The re-appearance of market conditions similar to those experienced during portions of 2020 and from 2007 through 2009 for any substantial length of time or worsened market conditions, including as a result of U.S. government shutdowns or the perceived creditworthiness or stability of the United States, could make it difficult to extend the maturity of, or refinance, our existing indebtedness, or obtain new indebtedness with similar terms and any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business. The debt capital that will be available to us in the future, if at all, may be at a higher cost and on less favorable terms and conditions than what we currently experience. Further, if we are unable to raise or refinance debt, then our equity investors may not benefit from the potential for increased returns on equity resulting from leverage and we may be limited in our ability to make new commitments or to fund existing commitments to our portfolio companies. The illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments, if required. As a result, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded our investments if forced to liquidate quickly. Given the extreme volatility and dislocation that the capital markets have historically experienced, many BDCs have faced, and may in the future face, a challenging environment in which to raise capital. We may in the future have difficulty accessing debt and equity capital, and a severe disruption in the global financial markets or deterioration in credit and financing conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, significant changes in the capital markets, including extreme volatility and disruption, have had, and may in the future have, a negative effect on the valuations of our investments and on the potential for liquidity events involving our investments. An inability to raise capital, and any required sale of our investments for liquidity purposes, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. The Investment Adviser does not know how long uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets will continue to and cannot predict the effects of events in the future on the United States economy and securities markets or on our investments. The Investment Adviser monitors developments and seeks to manage our investments in a manner consistent with achieving our investment objective, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so; and the Investment Adviser may not timely anticipate or manage existing, new or additional risks, contingencies or developments, including regulatory developments in the current or future market environment. We record certain of our assets at fair value, as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors in accordance with our valuation policy. As a result, volatility in the capital markets may have a material adverse effect on our investment valuations and our net asset value, even if we plan to hold investments to maturity. The U.S. and global capital markets are subject to systemic risk that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Issuers, national and regional banks, financial institutions and other participants in the U.S. and global capital markets are closely interrelated as a result of credit, trading, clearing, technology and other relationships. A significant adverse development (such as a bank run, insolvency, bankruptcy or default) with one or more national or regional banks, financial institutions or other participants in the financial or capital markets may spread to others and lead to significant concentrated or market-wide problems (such as defaults, liquidity problems, impairment charges, additional bank runs and/or losses) for other participants in these markets. Future developments, including actions taken by the U.S. Department of Treasury, FDIC, Federal Reserve Board, and systemic risk in the U.S. and global banking sectors and broader economies in general, are difficult to assess and quantify, and the form and magnitude of such developments or other actions of the U.S. Department of Treasury, FDIC and Federal Reserve Board may remain unknown for significant periods of time and could have an adverse effect on the Company. For example, in 2023, the financial markets experienced volatility in connection with concerns that some banks, especially small and regional banks, may have significant investment-related losses that might make it difficult to find demands to withdraw deposits and other liquidity needs. This and similar developments could in the future lead to further rules and regulations for public companies, banks, financial institutions and other participants in the U.S. and global capital markets, and complying with the requirements of any such rules or regulations may be burdensome. Even if not adopted, evaluating and responding to any such proposed rules or regulations could result in increased costs and require significant attention from our Investment Adviser. 35 Global economic, political and market conditions, including uncertainty about the financial or political stability of the United States, could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Downgrades by rating agencies to the U.S. government’s credit rating or concerns about its credit and deficit levels in general could cause interest rates and borrowing costs to rise, which may negatively impact both the perception of credit risk associated with our debt portfolio and our ability to access the debt markets on favorable terms. In addition, a decreased U.S. government credit rating, any default by the U.S. government on its obligations, or any prolonged U.S. government shutdown, could create broader financial turmoil and uncertainty, which may weigh heavily on our financial performance and the value of our common stock. Deterioration in the economic conditions in the Eurozone and globally, including instability in financial markets, may pose a risk to our business. In recent years, financial markets have been affected at times by a number of global macroeconomic and political events, including the following: large sovereign debts and fiscal deficits of several countries in Europe and in emerging markets jurisdictions, levels of non‑performing loans on the balance sheets of European banks, the effect of the United Kingdom leaving the European Union (the “EU”), and market volatility and loss of investor confidence driven by political events. Market and economic disruptions have affected, and may in the future affect, consumer confidence levels and spending, personal bankruptcy rates, levels of incurrence and default on consumer debt and home prices, among other factors. We cannot assure you that market disruptions in Europe, including the increased cost of funding for certain governments and financial institutions, will not impact the global economy, and we cannot assure you that assistance packages will be available, or if available, be sufficient to stabilize countries and markets in Europe or elsewhere affected by a financial crisis. To the extent uncertainty regarding any economic recovery in Europe negatively impacts consumer confidence and consumer credit factors, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be significantly and adversely affected. The Chinese capital markets have also experienced periods of instability over the past several years. The current political climate has also intensified concerns about a potential trade war between the U.S. and China in connection with each country’s recent or proposed tariffs on the other country’s products. These market and economic disruptions and the potential trade war with China have affected, and may in the future affect, the U.S. capital markets, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The current global financial market situation, as well as various social and political circumstances in the U.S. and around the world (including wars and other forms of conflict, terrorist acts, security operations and catastrophic events such as fires, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, adverse effects of climate crisis and global health epidemics), may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the U.S. and worldwide, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, the U.S. government’s credit and deficit concerns, the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine, conflicts in the Middle East, including the United States’ and Israel’s war with Iran, and the trade tensions between the U.S. and other countries could cause further volatility in interest rates, which may negatively impact our and our portfolio companies' ability to access the debt markets on favorable terms. Legislative or other actions relating to taxes could have a negative effect on us. The rules dealing with U.S. federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the U.S. Treasury Department. For example, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act made substantial changes to the Code. Among those changes were a significant permanent reduction in the generally applicable corporate tax rate, changes in the taxation of individuals and other non-corporate taxpayers that generally but not universally reduce their taxes on a temporary basis subject to “sunset” provisions, the elimination or modification of various previously allowed deductions (including substantial limitations on the deductibility of interest and, in the case of individuals, the deduction for personal state and local taxes), certain additional limitations on the deduction of net operating losses, certain preferential rates of taxation on certain dividends and certain business income derived by non-corporate taxpayers in comparison to other ordinary income recognized by such taxpayers, and significant changes to the international tax rules. Changes to the U.S. federal tax laws and interpretations thereof could adversely affect an investment in our common stock. Changes in interest rates may adversely affect the value of our portfolio investments which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our debt investments are generally based on floating rates, such as EURIBOR, Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate. General interest rate fluctuations may have a substantial negative impact on our investments, the value of our common stock and our rate of return on invested capital. An increase in interest rates generally will increase the cost of borrowing for the companies in which we invest and may make them less profitable, which generally would decrease the value of our investments in them. In addition, although we generally expect to invest a limited percentage of our assets in instruments with a fixed interest rate, including subordinated loans, senior and junior secured and unsecured debt 36 securities and loans in high yield bonds, an increase in interest rates could decrease the value of those fixed rate investments. Rising interest rates may also increase the cost of debt for our underlying portfolio companies, which could adversely impact their financial performance and ability to meet ongoing obligations to the Company. Also, an increase in interest rates available to investors could make investment in our common stock less attractive if we are not able to increase our dividend rate, which could reduce the value of our common stock. Because we have borrowed money, and continue to issue preferred stock to finance investments, our net investment income depends, in part, upon the difference between the rate at which we borrow funds or pay dividends on preferred stock and the rate that our investments yield. As a result, we can offer no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. In periods of high interest rates, our cost of funds would increase except to the extent we have issued fixed rate debt or preferred stock, which could reduce our net investment income. You should also be aware that a change in the general level of interest rates can be expected to lead to a change in the interest rate we receive on many of our debt investments. Accordingly, a change in the interest rate could make it easier for us to meet or exceed the performance threshold and may result in a substantial increase in the amount of Incentive Fees payable to our Investment Adviser with respect to the portion of the incentive fee based on income. The senior secured loans underlying the CLOs in which we invest typically have floating interest rates. A rising interest rate environment may increase loan defaults, resulting in losses for the CLOs in which we invest. In addition, increasing interest rates may lead to higher prepayment rates, as corporate borrowers look to avoid escalating interest payments or refinance floating rate loans. Further, a general rise in interest rates will increase the financing costs of the CLOs. The ongoing risks associated with transitioning from LIBOR to term SOFR or an alternative benchmark rate may be difficult to assess or predict. To the extent that the rate utilized for senior secured loans held by a CLO differs from the rate utilized in calculating interest on the debt securities issued by the CLO, there is a basis risk between the two rates (e.g., SOFR or another benchmark rate or the 1-month term SOFR rate and the 3-month term SOFR rate). This means the CLO could experience an interest rate mismatch between its assets and liabilities, which could have an adverse impact on the cash flows distributed to CLO equity investors as well as our net investment income and portfolio returns until such mismatch is corrected or minimized, if at all, which would be expected to occur when both the underlying senior secured loans and the CLO securities utilize the same benchmark index rate. At this time, it is not possible to predict the full effects of the phasing out of LIBOR on U.S. senior secured loans, on CLO debt securities, and on the underlying assets of the specific CLOs in which we intend to invest. Benchmark Rate Mismatch. Many underlying corporate borrowers can elect to pay interest based on 1-month term SOFR, 3-month term SOFR and/or other term SOFR or benchmark rates in respect of the loans held by CLOs in which we are invested, in each case plus an applicable spread, whereas CLOs generally pay interest to holders of the CLO’s debt tranches based on 3-month term SOFR plus a spread. The 3-month term SOFR rate may fluctuate in excess of other potential term SOFR or other benchmark rates, which may result in many underlying corporate borrowers electing to pay interest based on a shorter or different, but in any event, lower term SOFR or other benchmark rate. This mismatch in the rate at which CLOs earn interest and the rate at which they pay interest on their debt tranches negatively impacts the cash flows on a CLO’s equity tranche, which may in turn adversely affect our cash flows and results of operations. Unless spreads are adjusted to account for such increases, these negative impacts may worsen as the amount by which the 3-month term rate exceeds such other chosen term SOFR or other benchmark rate. Volatility in the global financial markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Volatility in the global financial markets could have an adverse effect on the United States and could result from a number of causes. In recent years, financial markets have been affected at times by a number of global macroeconomic and political events, including the following: large sovereign debts and fiscal deficits of several countries in Europe and in emerging markets jurisdictions, levels of non-performing loans on the balance sheets of European banks, the potential effect of any European country leaving the Eurozone, the effect of the United Kingdom leaving the EU, and market volatility and loss of investor confidence driven by political events. The decision made in the United Kingdom to leave the EU has led to volatility in global financial markets and may lead to weakening in consumer, corporate and financial confidence in the United Kingdom and Europe. Market and economic disruptions have affected, and may in the future affect, consumer confidence levels and spending, personal bankruptcy rates, levels of incurrence of default on consumer debt and home prices, among other factors. We cannot assure you that market disruptions in Europe, including the increased cost of funding for certain governments and financial institutions, will not impact the global economy, and we cannot assure you that assistance packages will be available or, if available, be sufficient to stabilize countries and markets in Europe or elsewhere affected by a financial crisis. To the extent 37 uncertainty regarding any economic recovery in Europe negatively impacts consumer confidence and consumer credit factors, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be significantly and adversely affected. The Chinese capital markets have also experienced periods of instability over the past several years. The current political climate has also intensified concerns about a potential trade war between the U.S. and China in connection with each country’s recent or proposed tariffs on the other country’s products. These market and economic disruptions and the potential trade war with China have affected, and may in the future affect, the U.S. capital markets, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The occurrence of global events similar to those in recent years, such as the Russia-Ukraine war and more recently the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, the United States’ and Israel’s war with Iran, instability in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Egypt, Libya, Syria, and North Korea, political unrest in South America and recent U.S. military action overseas, new and ongoing pandemics, epidemics or outbreaks of infectious diseases in certain parts of the world, natural/environmental disasters in certain parts of the world, terrorist attacks in the U.S. and around the world, trade or tariff arrangements, social and political discord, debt crises, sovereign debt downgrades, increasingly strained relations between the United States and a number of foreign countries including traditional allies, such as certain European countries, and historical adversaries, such as North Korea, Iran, China and Russia, and the international community generally, new and continued political unrest in various countries, continued changes in the balance of political power among and within the branches of the U.S. government, and government shutdowns, among others, may result in market volatility, may have long-term effects on the United States and worldwide financial markets, and may cause further economic uncertainties in the United States and worldwide. Periods of volatility still remain, and risks to a robust resumption of growth persist. Federal Reserve policy, including with respect to certain interest rates, may adversely affect the value, volatility and liquidity of dividend and interest paying securities. Market volatility, dramatic changes to interest rates and/or a return to unfavorable economic conditions may lower the Company’s performance or impair the Company’s ability to achieve its investment objective. The occurrence of any of these above events could have a significant adverse impact on the value and risk profile of our portfolio. We do not know how long the securities markets may be affected by similar events and cannot predict the effects of similar events in the future on the U.S. economy and securities markets. Non-investment grade and equity securities tend to be more volatile than investment-grade fixed income securities; therefore, these events and other market disruptions may have a greater impact on the prices and volatility of non-investment grade and equity securities than on investment-grade fixed income securities. There can be no assurances that similar events and other market disruptions will not have other material and adverse implications. Economic sanction laws in the United States and other jurisdictions may prohibit us and our affiliates from transacting with certain countries, individuals and companies. Economic sanction laws in the United States and other jurisdictions may prohibit us or our affiliates from transacting with certain countries, individuals and companies. In the United States, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control administers and enforces laws, executive orders and regulations establishing U.S. economic and trade sanctions, which prohibit, among other things, transactions with, and the provision of services to, certain non-U.S. countries, territories, entities and individuals. These types of sanctions may significantly restrict or completely prohibit investment activities in certain jurisdictions, and if we, our portfolio companies or other issuers in which we invest were to violate any such laws or regulations, we may face significant legal and monetary penalties. The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, and other anti-corruption laws and regulations, as well as anti-boycott regulations, may also apply to and restrict our activities, our portfolio companies and other issuers of our investments. If an issuer or we were to violate any such laws or regulations, such issuer or we may face significant legal and monetary penalties. The U.S. government has indicated that it is particularly focused on FCPA enforcement, which may increase the risk that an issuer or us becomes the subject of such actual or threatened enforcement. In addition, certain commentators have suggested that private investment firms and the funds that they manage may face increased scrutiny and/or liability with respect to the activities of their underlying portfolio companies. As such, a violation of the FCPA or other applicable regulations by us or an issuer of our portfolio investments could have a material adverse effect on us. We are committed to complying with the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws and regulations, as well as anti-boycott regulations, to which we are subject. As a result, we may be adversely affected because of our unwillingness to enter into transactions that violate any such laws or regulations. Trade negotiations and other government actions may create regulatory uncertainty for the portfolio companies and our investment strategy and adversely affect the profitability of the portfolio companies. 38 In recent years, the U.S. government has indicated its intent to alter its approach to international trade policy and in some cases to renegotiate, or potentially terminate, certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements and treaties with foreign countries, and has made proposals and taken actions related thereto. For example, the U.S. government has imposed, and may in the future further increase, tariffs on certain foreign goods, including from China, such as steel and aluminum. Some foreign governments, including China, have instituted retaliatory tariffs on certain U.S. goods. Most recently, the current U.S. presidential administration has imposed or sought to impose significant increases to tariffs on goods imported into the U.S., including from China, Canada and Mexico. Tariffs on imported goods could further increase costs, decrease margins, reduce the competitiveness of products and services offered by current and future portfolio companies and adversely affect the revenues and profitability of portfolio companies whose businesses rely on goods imported from such impacted jurisdictions. More recently, tariff announcements and ongoing global trade negotiations have contributed to significant uncertainty and volatility in the debt and equity markets. Changes in trade policy and the imposition of new tariffs could disrupt supply chains and potentially reverse the recent downward trend in inflation, and uncertainty as to how or what tariffs will be enforced or imposed in the future, or what retaliatory measures other countries may take in response, could compound these effects. In addition, the current U.S. presidential administration has signaled its intention to implement, or has implemented, significant changes to the size of the federal government and the enforcement of various regulations. Substantial reductions in government spending could negatively affect certain of our portfolio companies that rely on government contracts and could destabilize the U.S. government contracting market, harming our ability to generate expected returns. Additionally, changes in the regulation or enforcement of bank lending and capital requirements could have material and adverse effects on the private credit market. Our financial condition and results of operations will depend on our ability to manage our future growth effectively. Prospect Capital Management has been registered as an investment adviser since March 31, 2004, and we have been organized as a closed-end investment company since April 13, 2004. Our ability to achieve our investment objective depends on our ability to grow, which depends, in turn, on the Investment Adviser’s ability to continue to identify, analyze, invest in and monitor companies that meet our investment criteria. Accomplishing this result on a cost-effective basis is largely a function of the Investment Adviser’s structuring of investments, its ability to provide competent, attentive and efficient services to us and our access to financing on acceptable terms. As we continue to grow, Prospect Capital Management will need to continue to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees. Failure to manage our future growth effectively could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We are dependent upon Prospect Capital Management’s key management personnel for our future success. We depend on the diligence, skill and network of business contacts of the senior management of the Investment Adviser. We also depend, to a significant extent, on the Investment Adviser’s access to the investment professionals and the information and deal flow generated by these investment professionals in the course of their investment and portfolio management activities. The senior management team of the Investment Adviser evaluates, negotiates, structures, closes, monitors and services our investments. Our success depends to a significant extent on the continued service of the senior management team, particularly John F. Barry III and M. Grier Eliasek. The departure of any of the senior management team could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to achieve our investment objective. In addition, we can offer no assurance that Prospect Capital Management will remain the Investment Adviser or that we will continue to have access to its investment professionals or its information and deal flow. We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities. A number of entities compete with us to make the types of investments that we make in middle-market companies. We compete with other BDCs, public and private funds, commercial and investment banks, commercial financing companies, insurance companies, hedge funds, and, to the extent they provide an alternative form of financing, private equity funds. Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. Some competitors may have a lower cost of funds and access to funding sources that are not available to us. In addition, some of our competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of investments and establish more relationships than us. Furthermore, many of our competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on us as a BDC and that the Code imposes on us as a RIC. We cannot assure you that the competitive pressures we face will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, as a result of this competition, we may not be able to pursue attractive investment opportunities from time to time. We do not seek to compete primarily based on the interest rates we offer and we believe that some of our competitors may make loans with interest rates that are comparable to or lower than the rates we offer. Rather, we compete with our competitors 39 based on our existing investment platform, seasoned investment professionals, experience and focus on middle-market companies, disciplined investment philosophy, extensive industry focus and flexible transaction structuring. We may lose investment opportunities if we do not match our competitors’ pricing, terms and structure. If we match our competitors’ pricing, terms and structure, we may experience decreased net interest income and increased risk of credit loss. As a result of operating in such a competitive environment, we may make investments that are on less favorable terms than what we may have originally anticipated, which may impact our return on these investments. We fund a portion of our investments with borrowed money, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and may increase the risk of investing in us. Borrowings and other types of financing, also known as leverage, magnify the potential for gain or loss on amounts invested and, therefore, increase the risks associated with investing in our securities. Our lenders have fixed dollar claims on our assets that are superior to the claims of our common stockholders or any preferred stockholders. If the value of our assets increases, then leveraging would cause the net asset value to increase more sharply than it would have had we not leveraged. Conversely, if the value of our assets decreases, leveraging would cause net asset value to decline more sharply than it otherwise would have had we not leveraged. Similarly, any increase in our income in excess of consolidated interest payable on the borrowed funds would cause our net income to increase more than it would without the leverage, while any decrease in our income would cause net income to decline more sharply than it would have had we not borrowed. Such a decline could negatively affect our ability to make common stock dividend payments. Leverage is generally considered a speculative investment technique. We need to raise additional capital to grow because we must distribute most of our income. We need additional capital to fund growth in our investments. A reduction in the availability of new capital could limit our ability to grow. We must distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders to maintain our status as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, such earnings are not available to fund investment originations. We have sought additional capital by borrowing from financial institutions and issuing debt or equity securities and may in the future issue additional debt or equity securities. If we fail to obtain funds from such sources or from other sources to fund our investments, we could be limited in our ability to grow, which may have an adverse effect on the value of our common stock. In addition, as a BDC, we generally may not borrow money or issue debt securities or issue preferred stock unless immediately thereafter our ratio of total assets to total borrowings and other senior securities is at least 150%. This may restrict our ability to obtain additional leverage in certain circumstances. Our most recent NAV was calculated on June 30, 2026 and our NAV when calculated effective September 30, 2026 and thereafter may be higher or lower. Our NAV per common share is $5.71 as of June 30, 2026. NAV per common share as of September 30, 2026 may be higher or lower than $5.71 based on potential changes in valuations, issuances of securities, repurchases of securities, dividends paid and earnings for the quarter then ended. Our Board of Directors has not yet determined the fair value of portfolio investments at any date subsequent to June 30, 2026. Our Board of Directors determines the fair value of our portfolio investments on a quarterly basis in connection with the preparation of quarterly financial statements and based on input from independent valuation firms, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Our business model depends upon the development and maintenance of strong referral relationships with other asset managers and investment banking firms. We are substantially dependent on our informal relationships, which we use to help identify and gain access to investment opportunities. If we fail to maintain our relationships with key firms, or if we fail to establish strong referral relationships with other firms or other sources of investment opportunities, we will not be able to grow our portfolio of equity investments and achieve our investment objective. In addition, persons with whom we have informal relationships are not obligated to inform us of investment opportunities, and therefore such relationships may not lead to the origination of equity or other investments. Any loss or diminishment of such relationships could effectively reduce our ability to identify attractive portfolio companies that meet our investment criteria, either for direct equity investments or for investments through private secondary market transactions or other secondary transactions. 40 The Investment Adviser’s liability is limited under the Investment Advisory Agreement, and we are required to indemnify the Investment Adviser against certain liabilities, which may lead the Investment Adviser to act in a riskier manner on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account. The Investment Adviser has not assumed any responsibility to us other than to render the services described in the Investment Advisory Agreement, and it will not be responsible for any action of our Board of Directors in declining to follow the Investment Adviser’s advice or recommendations. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser and its members and their respective officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons and members and any other person or entity affiliated with it will not be liable to us for their acts under the Investment Advisory Agreement, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard in the performance of their duties. We have agreed to indemnify, defend and protect the Investment Adviser and its members and their respective officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons and members and any other person or entity affiliated with it with respect to all damages, liabilities, costs and expenses resulting from acts of the Investment Adviser not arising out of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard in the performance of their duties under the Investment Advisory Agreement. These protections may lead the Investment Adviser to act in a riskier manner when acting on our behalf than it would when acting for its own account. Potential conflicts of interest could impact our investment returns. Our executive officers and directors, and the executive officers of the Investment Adviser, may serve as officers, directors or principals of entities that operate in the same or related lines of business as we do or of investment funds managed by our affiliates. Accordingly, they may have obligations to investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which might not be in our best interests or those of our stockholders. Nevertheless, it is possible that new investment opportunities that meet our investment objective may come to the attention of one of these entities in connection with another investment advisory client or program, and, if so, such opportunity might not be offered, or otherwise made available, to us. However, as an investment adviser, Prospect Capital Management has a fiduciary obligation to act in the best interests of its clients, including us. To that end, if Prospect Capital Management or its affiliates manage any additional investment vehicles or client accounts in the future, Prospect Capital Management will endeavor to allocate investment opportunities in a fair and equitable manner over time so as not to discriminate unfairly against any client. If Prospect Capital Management chooses to establish another investment fund in the future, when the investment professionals of Prospect Capital Management identify an investment, they will have to choose which investment fund should make the investment. In the course of our investing activities, under the Investment Advisory Agreement we pay base management and incentive fees to Prospect Capital Management and reimburse Prospect Capital Management for certain expenses it incurs. As a result of the Investment Advisory Agreement, there may be times when the senior management team of Prospect Capital Management has interests that differ from those of our stockholders, giving rise to a conflict. The Investment Adviser receives a quarterly income incentive fee based, in part, on our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. This income incentive fee is subject to a fixed quarterly hurdle rate before providing an income incentive fee return to Prospect Capital Management. This fixed hurdle rate was determined when then current interest rates were relatively low on a historical basis. Thus, as interest rates rise, it could become easier for our investment income to exceed the hurdle rate and, as a result, more likely that Prospect Capital Management will receive an income incentive fee than if interest rates on our investments remained constant or decreased. Subject to the receipt of any requisite stockholder approval under the 1940 Act, our Board of Directors may adjust the hurdle rate by amending the Investment Advisory Agreement. The income incentive fee payable by us is computed and paid on income that may include interest that has been accrued but not yet received in cash. If a portfolio company defaults on a loan that has a deferred interest feature, it is possible that interest accrued under such loan that has previously been included in the calculation of the income incentive fee will become uncollectible. If this happens, we will reverse the interest that was recorded but Prospect Capital Management is not required to reimburse us for any such income incentive fee payments that were received in the past but would reduce the current period incentive fee for the effects of the reversal, if any. If we do not have sufficient liquid assets to pay this incentive fee or distributions to stockholders on such accrued income, we may be required to liquidate assets in order to do so. This fee structure could give rise to a conflict of interest for Prospect Capital Management to the extent that it may encourage Prospect Capital Management to favor debt financings that provide for deferred interest, rather than current cash payments of interest. 41 We have entered into a royalty-free license agreement with Prospect Capital Management. Under this agreement, Prospect Capital Management agrees to grant us a non-exclusive license to use the name “Prospect Capital.” Under the license agreement, we have the right to use the “Prospect Capital” name for so long as Prospect Capital Management or one of its affiliates remains our investment adviser. In addition, we rent office space from Prospect Administration, an affiliate of Prospect Capital Management, and pay Prospect Administration our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by Prospect Administration in performing its obligations as Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the costs of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and their respective staffs. This may create conflicts of interest that our Board of Directors monitors. Our incentive fee could induce Prospect Capital Management to make speculative investments. The incentive fee payable by us to Prospect Capital Management may create an incentive for the Investment Adviser to make investments on our behalf that are more speculative or involve more risk than would be the case in the absence of such compensation arrangement. The way in which the incentive fee payable is determined (calculated as a percentage of the return on invested capital) may encourage the Investment Adviser to use leverage to increase the return on our investments. Increased use of leverage and this increased risk of replacement of that leverage at maturity would increase the likelihood of default, which would disfavor holders of our common stock. Similarly, because the Investment Adviser will receive an incentive fee based, in part, upon net capital gains realized on our investments, the Investment Adviser may invest more than would otherwise be appropriate in companies whose securities are likely to yield capital gains, as compared to income producing securities. Such a practice could result in our investing in more speculative securities than would otherwise be the case, which could result in higher investment losses, particularly during economic downturns. The incentive fee payable by us to Prospect Capital Management could create an incentive for the Investment Adviser to invest on our behalf in instruments, such as zero coupon bonds, that have a deferred interest feature. Under these investments, we would accrue interest income over the life of the investment but would not receive payments in cash on the investment until the end of the term. Our net investment income used to calculate the income incentive fee, however, includes accrued interest. For example, accrued interest, if any, on our investments in zero coupon bonds will be included in the calculation of our incentive fee, even though we will not receive any cash interest payments in respect of payment on the bond until its maturity date. Thus, a portion of this incentive fee would be based on income that we may not have yet received in cash in the event of default may never receive. We may be obligated to pay our Investment Adviser incentive compensation even if we incur a loss. The Investment Adviser is entitled to incentive compensation for each fiscal quarter based, in part, on our pre-incentive fee net investment income if any, for the immediately preceding calendar quarter above a performance threshold for that quarter. Accordingly, since the performance threshold is based on a percentage of our net asset value, decreases in our net asset value make it easier to achieve the performance threshold. Our pre-incentive fee net investment income for incentive compensation purposes excludes realized and unrealized capital losses or depreciation that we may incur in the fiscal quarter, even if such capital losses or depreciation result in a net loss on our statement of operations for that quarter. Thus, we may be required to pay the Investment Adviser incentive compensation for a fiscal quarter even if there is a decline in the value of our portfolio or we incur a net loss for that quarter. In addition, increases in interest rates may increase the amount of incentive fees we pay to our Investment Adviser even though our performance relative to the market has not increased. The Investment Adviser and the Administrator have the right to resign on 60 days’ notice, and we may not be able to find a suitable replacement within that time, resulting in a disruption in our operations that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. The Investment Adviser and the Administrator have the right, under the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement, respectively, to resign at any time upon not less than 60 days’ written notice, whether we have found a replacement or not. If the Investment Adviser or the Administrator resigns, we may not be able to find a replacement or hire internal management or administration with similar expertise and ability to provide the same or equivalent services on acceptable terms within 60 days, or at all. If we are unable to do so quickly, our operations are likely to experience a disruption, our business, financial condition and results of operations as well as our ability to pay distributions are likely to be adversely affected and the market price of our shares may decline. In addition, the coordination of our internal management and investment activities or our internal administration activities, as applicable, is likely to suffer if we are unable to identify and reach an agreement with a single institution or group of executives having the expertise possessed by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates or the Administrator and its affiliates. Even if we are able to retain comparable management or administration, whether internal or external, the integration of such management or administration and their lack of familiarity with our investment objective may result in additional costs and time delays that may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. 42 Changes in the laws or regulations governing our business or the businesses of our portfolio companies and any failure by us or our portfolio companies to comply with these laws or regulations could negatively affect the profitability of our operations or the profitability of our portfolio companies. We are subject to changing rules and regulations of federal and state governments, as well as the stock exchange on which our common stock is listed. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC, the NASDAQ Global Select Market and the New York Stock Exchange LLC (“NYSE”), have issued a significant number of new and increasingly complex requirements and regulations over the course of the last several years and continue to develop additional regulations. In particular, changes in the laws or regulations or the interpretations of the laws and regulations that govern BDCs, RICs or non-depository commercial lenders could significantly affect our operations and our cost of doing business. We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations and are subject to judicial and administrative decisions that affect our operations, including our loan originations, maximum interest rates, fees and other charges, disclosures to portfolio companies, the terms of secured transactions, cybersecurity preparedness, collection and foreclosure procedures and other trade practices. If these laws, regulations or decisions change, or if we expand our business into jurisdictions that have adopted more stringent requirements than those in which we currently conduct business, we may have to incur significant expenses in order to comply, or we might have to restrict our operations. In addition, if we do not comply with applicable laws, regulations and decisions, we may lose licenses needed for the conduct of our business and be subject to civil fines and criminal penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations. Foreign and domestic political risk may adversely affect our business. We are exposed to political risk to the extent that Prospect Capital Management, on its behalf and subject to its investment guidelines, transacts in securities in the U.S. and foreign markets. The governments in any of these jurisdictions could impose restrictions, regulations or other measures, which may have a material adverse impact on our strategy. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, stockholders could lose confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our common stock. Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and, together with adequate disclosure controls and procedures, are designed to prevent fraud. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. In addition, any testing by us conducted in connection with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the subsequent testing by our independent registered public accounting firm (when undertaken, as noted below), may reveal deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses or that may require prospective or retroactive changes to our consolidated financial statements or identify other areas for further attention or improvement. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors and lenders to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock. We may experience cybersecurity incidents and are subject to cybersecurity risks. The failure in cybersecurity systems, as well as the occurrence of events unanticipated in our disaster recovery systems and management continuity planning, could impair our ability to conduct business effectively. Our business operations rely upon secure information technology systems for data processing, storage and reporting. We are dependent on the effectiveness of the information and cybersecurity policies, procedures and capabilities maintained by our Investment Adviser and other service providers to protect their computer and telecommunications systems and the data that reside on or are transmitted through them. Our portfolio companies similarly are dependent on the effectiveness of the information and cybersecurity policies that they and their service providers maintain. Despite careful security and controls design, implementation and updating, our information technology systems could become subject to cyber-attacks and unauthorized access, such as physical and electronic break-ins or unauthorized tampering. Cyber-attacks include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems (e.g., through “hacking” or malicious software coding) for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber-attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites (i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users). Network, system, application and data breaches could result in operational disruptions or information misappropriation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Like other companies, we may experience threats to our data and systems, including malware and computer virus attacks, unauthorized access, system failures and disruptions. Moreover, the increased use of mobile and cloud technologies could heighten these and other operational risks as certain aspects of the security of such technologies may be complex and unpredictable. Reliance on mobile or cloud technology or any failure by mobile technology and cloud service providers to adequately safeguard their systems and prevent cyber-attacks could disrupt our operations, the operations of a portfolio company or the operations of our or their service providers and result in 43 misappropriation, corruption or loss of personal, confidential or proprietary information or the inability to conduct ordinary business operations. In addition, there is a risk that encryption and other protective measures may be circumvented, particularly to the extent that new computing technologies increase the speed and computing power available, and the risk of cyber and data security threats to us, our affiliates and our portfolio companies is exacerbated with the advancement of artificial intelligence, which malicious third parties are using to create new, sophisticated and more frequent attacks. There have been a number of recent highly publicized cases of companies reporting the unauthorized disclosure of client or customer information, as well as cyber-attacks involving the dissemination, theft and destruction of corporate information or other assets, as a result of failure to follow procedures by employees or contractors or as a result of actions by third parties, including actions by terrorist organizations and hostile foreign governments. If one or more of these cyber-attacks occurs, it could potentially jeopardize the confidential, proprietary and other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, our computer systems and networks, or otherwise cause interruptions or malfunctions in our operations, which could result in damage to our reputation, financial losses, litigation, increased costs, regulatory penalties and/or customer dissatisfaction or loss. The occurrence of a disaster, such as a cyber-attack, a natural catastrophe, an industrial accident, a terrorist attack or war, events unanticipated in our disaster recovery systems, or a support failure from external providers, could have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct business and on our results of operations and financial condition, particularly if those events affect our computer-based data processing, transmission, storage, and retrieval systems or destroy data. If a significant number of our management personnel were unavailable in the event of a disaster, our ability to effectively conduct our business could be severely compromised. Cybersecurity failures or breaches of the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and other service providers (including, but not limited to, accountants, custodians, transfer agents and administrators), and the issuers of securities in which we invest, have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with our ability to calculate our net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of our stockholders to transact business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, or additional compliance costs. We and our Investment Adviser’s employees have been and expect to continue to be the target of fraudulent calls, emails and other forms of activities. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future. The costs related to cyber or other security threats or disruptions may not be fully insured or indemnified by other means. While we have established a business continuity plan in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, we cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by our service providers and issuers in which we invest. We and our stockholders could be negatively impacted as a result. Cybersecurity has become a top priority for regulators around the world, and some jurisdictions have enacted laws requiring companies to notify individuals of data security breaches involving certain types of personal data. In addition, state and federal laws and regulations related to BDC and RIC cybersecurity compliance continue to evolve and change. These changes may require substantial investments in new technology, software and personnel, which could affect our profitability. These changes may also result in enhanced and unforeseen consequences for cyber-related breaches and incidents, which may further adversely affect our profitability. If we fail to comply with the relevant laws and regulations, we could suffer financial losses, a disruption of our business, liability to investors, regulatory intervention or reputational damage. We and our portfolio companies are subject to risks associated with artificial intelligence. Technological developments in artificial intelligence, including machine learning technology and generative artificial intelligence (“AI Technology” and, collectively, “AI Technologies”), and their current and potential future applications, as well as the legal and regulatory frameworks within which they operate, are rapidly evolving. The full extent of current or future risks related thereto is not possible to predict and we and our portfolio companies may not be able to anticipate, prevent, mitigate or remediate all of the potential risks, challenges or impacts of such changes. Any of these technological innovations could result in harm to us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies; reduce demand for their products, services, software or technology offerings; significantly disrupt the markets in which they operate; and subject them to increased competition, including industry pricing or other competitive dynamics. These effects could materially and adversely affect their business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects, impact their valuations and ultimately have an adverse impact on us. Advancements in computing and AI Technologies, including efficiency improvements, without related increases in the adoption and development of such technologies, could also negatively impact demand for, and the valuation of, digital infrastructure assets of our affiliates and our portfolio companies. We, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our portfolio companies avail ourselves/themselves of the benefits, insights and efficiencies that are available through the use of AI Technologies. While we, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator, our affiliates and our portfolio companies have begun to deploy AI Technologies in a variety of ways, including in the evaluation and management of investments, legal and marketing compliance, customer engagement, content creation and rules-based operations (e.g., legal, accounting, and transaction processing), the long-term effectiveness and scalability of AI 44 Technologies remain uncertain. In addition, the use of AI Technologies presents a number of risks that cannot be fully mitigated. For example, independent of its context of use, AI Technologies are generally highly reliant on the collection and analysis of large amounts of data and complex algorithms, and it is not possible or practicable to incorporate all relevant data into the models that AI Technologies utilize to operate. Moreover, with the use of AI Technologies, there often exists a lack of transparency of how inputs are converted to outputs, and neither we, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator nor our portfolio companies can fully validate this process and its accuracy. The accuracy of such inputs and the resulting impact on the results of AI Technologies cannot be verified and could result in a diminished quality of work product that includes or is derived from inaccurate or erroneous information. Further, inherent bias in the construction of AI Technologies can lead to a wide array of risks including but not limited to accuracy, efficacy and reputational harm. Certain data in such models will therefore inevitably contain a degree of inaccuracy and error, which may be material, and such data as well as algorithms in use could otherwise be inadequate or flawed, which would be likely to degrade the effectiveness of AI Technologies and could adversely impact us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies to the extent we/they rely on the work product of such AI Technologies. The volume and reliance on data and algorithms also make AI Technologies, and in turn us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our portfolio companies, more susceptible to cybersecurity threats, including the compromise of underlying models, training data, or other intellectual property. We, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our portfolio companies could be exposed to risks to the extent third‐party service providers, or any counterparties use AI Technologies in their business activities. At the same time, to the extent utilized by the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies, any interruption of access to or use of AI Technologies could impede the ability of us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies to generate information and analysis that could be beneficial to us/them and our/their business, financial condition and results of operations. AI Technologies will likely also be competitive with certain business activities or increase the obsolescence of certain organizations’ products or services, particularly as AI Technologies improve. This could also have an adverse impact on us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies. AI Technologies can also be misused or misappropriated by third parties and/or employees of the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies. For example, there is a risk that a user will input confidential information, including material non-public information, or personal identifiable information, into AI Technologies applications, resulting in such information becoming part of a dataset that is accessible by other third-party AI Technologies applications and users including competitors of us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies. Moreover, we, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our portfolio companies will not necessarily be in a position to control the manner in which third-party AI Technologies are developed or maintained or the manner in which third parties use AI Technologies to provide services, even where we/they have sought contractual protections. The use of AI Technologies, including potential inadvertent disclosure of confidential information or personal identifiable information, could also lead to legal and regulatory investigations and enforcement actions. Relatedly, we, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our portfolio companies could be exposed to risks to the extent third-party service providers or any counterparties use AI Technologies in their business activities. The Investment Adviser and its affiliates expect to be involved in the collection of data and/or development of proprietary AI Technologies for the Investment Adviser, the Administrator, the Company, their affiliates and/or their portfolio companies. To this end, we can be expected to pay and bear certain expenses and fees associated with developing and maintaining such technology, including the costs of any professional service providers, subscriptions and related software and hardware, server infrastructure and hosting, and internal expenses, fees, charges and/or related costs incurred, charged or specifically attributed or allocated (based on methodologies determined by the Investment Adviser) to us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator, their affiliates or our portfolio companies in connection with such AI Technologies, and none of the fees, costs or expenses described above will reduce or offset the management fees. Regulations related to AI Technologies could also impose certain obligations and costs related to monitoring and compliance. Regulators are increasing scrutiny of, and enacting or considering enacting regulations regarding, the use of AI Technologies, including the use of “big data,” diligence of data sets and oversight of data vendors. The use of AI Technologies by us, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies may require compliance with legal and regulatory frameworks that are not fully developed or tested, and we, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator or our portfolio companies may face litigation and regulatory actions related to the use or the engagement of vendors that use AI Technologies. In April 2023, the Federal Trade Commission, U.S. Department of Justice, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission released a joint statement on artificial intelligence demonstrating interest in monitoring the development and use of automated systems and enforcement of their respective laws and regulations. In October 2023, an executive order established new standards for AI safety and security. In addition to the U.S. regulatory framework, the EU adopted the Artificial Intelligence Act in 2024, which applies to certain AI Technologies and the data used to train, test and deploy them, which may create additional compliance burdens, higher administrative costs and significant penalties should we, the Investment Adviser, the Administrator and our portfolio companies fail to comply or be perceived to fail to comply. 45 AI Technologies and their current and potential future applications, including in the private investment and financial sectors, as well as the legal and regulatory frameworks within which they operate, continue to rapidly evolve, and it is not possible to predict the full extent of current or future risks related thereto. We are dependent on information systems and systems failures could significantly disrupt our business, which may, in turn, negatively affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to pay dividends. Our business is dependent on our and third parties’ communications and information systems. Further, in the ordinary course of our business we or our Investment Adviser may engage certain third party service providers to provide us with services necessary for our business. Any failure or interruption of those systems or services, including as a result of the termination or suspension of an agreement with any third-party service providers, could cause delays or other problems in our business activities. Our financial, accounting, data processing, backup or other operating systems and facilities may fail to operate properly or become disabled or damaged as a result of a number of factors including events that are wholly or partially beyond our control and adversely affect our business. There could be: •sudden electrical or telecommunications outages; •natural disasters such as earthquakes, tornadoes and hurricanes; •disease epidemics or pandemics; •events arising from local or larger scale political or social matters, including terrorist acts; and •cyber-attacks. These events, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and negatively affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders. Risks Relating to Our Operation as a Business Development Company If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could fail to qualify as a BDC or be precluded from investing according to our current business strategy. As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such acquisition, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets. We may be precluded from investing in what we believe are attractive investments if such investments are not qualifying assets for purposes of the 1940 Act. If we do not invest a sufficient portion of our assets in qualifying assets, we could be found to be in violation of the 1940 Act provisions applicable to BDCs, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Similarly, these rules could prevent us from making follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies (which could result in the dilution of our position) or could require us to dispose of investments at inappropriate times in order to come into compliance with the 1940 Act. Because most of our investments will be in private companies, and therefore will be relatively illiquid, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and could result in substantial losses. If we fail to qualify as a RIC, we will have to pay corporate-level taxes on our income, and our income available for distribution would be reduced. To maintain our qualification for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and obtain RIC tax treatment, we must meet certain source of income, annual distribution and asset diversification requirements. The source of income requirement is satisfied if we derive at least 90% of our annual gross income from interest, dividends, payments with respect to certain securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of securities or options thereon or foreign currencies, or other income derived with respect to our business of investing in such securities or currencies, and net income from interests in “qualified publicly traded partnerships,” as defined in the Code. The annual distribution requirement for a RIC will generally be satisfied if we distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of net long-term capital losses, if any, to our stockholders on an annual basis. Because we use debt financing, we are subject to certain asset coverage ratio requirements under the 1940 Act and financial covenants that could, under certain circumstances, restrict us from making distributions necessary to qualify for RIC tax treatment. If we are unable to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC tax treatment and, thus, may be subject to corporate-level income tax on all of our taxable income. To maintain our qualification as a RIC, we must also meet certain asset diversification requirements at the end of each quarter of our taxable year. Failure to meet these tests may result in our having to dispose of certain investments quickly in order to 46 prevent the loss of RIC status. Because most of our investments are in private companies, any such dispositions could be made at disadvantageous prices and may result in substantial losses. If we fail to qualify as a RIC for any reason or become subject to corporate income tax, the resulting corporate taxes would substantially reduce our net assets, the amount of income available for distribution, and the actual amount of our distributions. Such a failure could have a materially adverse effect on us and our stockholders. For additional information regarding asset coverage ratio and RIC requirements, see “Business—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” and “Business— Regulation as a Business Development Company.” We may have difficulty paying our required distributions if we recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, we include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as original issue discount or payment-in-kind interest, which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance and due at the end of the loan term. Such amounts could be significant relative to our overall investment activities. We also may be required to include in taxable income certain other amounts that we do not receive in cash. While we focus primarily on investments that will generate a current cash return, our investment portfolio currently includes, and we may continue to invest in, securities that do not pay some or all of their return in periodic current cash distributions. Since in some cases we may recognize taxable income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty distributing at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, as required to maintain RIC tax treatment. Accordingly, we may have to sell some of our investments at times we would not consider advantageous, raise additional debt or equity capital or reduce new investment originations to meet these distribution requirements. If we are not able to obtain cash from other sources, we may fail to qualify for RIC treatment and thus become subject to corporate-level income tax. See “Business—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” and “Business—Regulation as a Business Development Company.” Regulations governing our operation as a BDC affect our ability to raise, and the way in which we raise, additional capital. These constraints may hinder our Investment Adviser’s ability to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities and to achieve our investment objective. We have incurred indebtedness under our revolving credit facility and through the issuance of the Unsecured Notes, have issued and are continuing to issue preferred stock and, in the future, may issue additional preferred stock or debt securities and/or borrow additional money from banks or other financial institutions, which we refer to collectively as “senior securities,” up to the maximum amount permitted by the 1940 Act. Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, we are permitted, as a BDC, to incur indebtedness or issue senior securities only in amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 150% after each issuance of senior securities. If the value of our assets declines, we may be unable to satisfy this test, which would prohibit us from paying dividends in cash or other property and could prohibit us from qualifying as a RIC. If we cannot satisfy this test, we may be required to sell a portion of our investments or sell additional shares of common stock at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous in order to repay a portion of our indebtedness or otherwise increase our net assets. Sales of common stock at prices below net asset value per share dilute the interests of existing stockholders, have the effect of reducing our net asset value per share and may reduce our market price per share. In addition, continuous sales of common stock below net asset value may have a negative impact on total returns and could have a negative impact on the market price of our shares of common stock. If we raise additional funds by issuing common stock or senior securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, our common stock, then the percentage ownership of our stockholders at that time will decrease, and you may experience dilution. 47 As a BDC regulated under provisions of the 1940 Act, we are not generally able to issue and sell our common stock at a price below the current net asset value per share without stockholder approval. If our common stock trades at a discount to net asset value, this restriction could adversely affect our ability to raise capital. We may, however, sell our common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock, at a price below the current net asset value of our common stock in certain circumstances, one of which is if (i)(1) the holders of a majority of our shares (or, if less, at least 67% of a quorum consisting of a majority of our shares) and a similar majority of the holders of our shares who are not affiliated persons of us approve the sale of our common stock at a price that is less than the current net asset value (which has currently occurred and is effective through July 7, 2027), and (2) a majority of our Directors who have no financial interest in the transaction and a majority of our independent Directors (a) determine that such sale is in our and our stockholders’ best interests and (b) in consultation with any underwriter or underwriters of the offering, make a good faith determination as of a time either immediately prior to the first solicitation by us or on our behalf of firm commitments to purchase such shares, or immediately prior to the issuance of such shares, that the price at which such shares are to be sold is not less than a price which closely approximates the market value of such shares, less any distributing commission or discount or (ii) a majority of the number of the beneficial holders of our common stock entitled to vote at our annual meeting, without regard to whether a majority of such shares are voted in favor of the proposal, approve the sale of our common stock at a price that is less than the current net asset value per share. To generate cash for funding new investments, we pledged a substantial portion of our portfolio investments under our revolving credit facility. These assets are not available to secure other sources of funding or for securitization. Our ability to obtain additional secured or unsecured financing on attractive terms in the future is uncertain. Alternatively, we may securitize our future loans to generate cash for funding new investments. See “Securitization of our assets subjects us to various risks.” Securitization of our assets subjects us to various risks. We may securitize assets to generate cash for funding new investments. We refer to the term securitize to describe a form of leverage under which a company such as us (sometimes referred to as an “originator” or “sponsor”) transfers income producing assets to a single-purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary (also referred to as a “special purpose entity” or “SPE”), which is established solely for the purpose of holding such assets and entering into a structured finance transaction. The SPE then issues notes secured by such assets. The special purpose entity may issue the notes in the capital markets either publicly or privately to a variety of investors, including banks, non-bank financial institutions and other investors. There may be a single class of notes or multiple classes of notes, the most senior of which carries less credit risk and the most junior of which may carry substantially the same credit risk as the equity of the SPE. An important aspect of most debt securitization transactions is that the sale and/or contribution of assets into the SPE be considered a true sale and/or contribution for accounting purposes and that a reviewing court would not consolidate the SPE with the operations of the originator in the event of the originator’s bankruptcy based on equitable principles. Viewed as a whole, a debt securitization seeks to lower risk to the note purchasers by isolating the assets collateralizing the securitization in an SPE that is not subject to the credit and bankruptcy risks of the originator. As a result of this perceived reduction of risk, debt securitization transactions frequently achieve lower overall leverage costs for originators as compared to traditional secured lending transactions. In accordance with the above description, to securitize loans, we may create a wholly-owned subsidiary and contribute a pool of our assets to such subsidiary. The SPE may be funded with, among other things, whole loans or interests from other pools and such loans may or may not be rated. The SPE would then sell its notes to purchasers who we would expect to be willing to accept a lower interest rate and the absence of any recourse against us to invest in a pool of income producing assets to which none of our creditors would have access. We would retain all or a portion of the equity in the SPE. An inability to successfully securitize portions of our portfolio or otherwise leverage our portfolio through secured and unsecured borrowings could limit our ability to grow our business and fully execute our business strategy, and could decrease our earnings. However, the successful securitization of portions of our portfolio exposes us to a risk of loss for the equity we retain in the SPE and might expose us to greater risk on our remaining portfolio because the assets we retain may tend to be those that are riskier and more likely to generate losses. A successful securitization may also impose financial and operating covenants that restrict our business activities and may include limitations that could hinder our ability to finance additional loans and investments or to make the distributions required to maintain our status as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. The 1940 Act may also impose restrictions on the structure of any securitizations. 48 Interests we hold in the SPE, if any, will be subordinated to the other interests issued by the SPE. As such, we will only receive cash distributions on such interests if the SPE has made all cash interest and other required payments on all other interests it has issued. In addition, our subordinated interests will likely be unsecured and rank behind all of the secured creditors, known or unknown, of the SPE, including the holders of the senior interests it has issued. Consequently, to the extent that the value of the SPE’s portfolio of assets has been reduced as a result of conditions in the credit markets, or as a result of defaults, the value of the subordinated interests we retain would be reduced. Securitization imposes on us the same risks as borrowing except that our risk in a securitization is limited to the amount of subordinated interests we retain, whereas in a borrowing or debt issuance by us directly we would be at risk for the entire amount of the borrowing or debt issuance. If the SPE is not consolidated with us, our only interest will be the value of our retained subordinated interest and the income allocated to us, which may be more or less than the cash we receive from the SPE, and none of the SPE’s liabilities will be reflected as our liabilities. If the assets of the SPE are not consolidated with our assets and liabilities, then our interest in the SPE may be deemed not to be a qualifying asset for purposes of determining whether 70% of our assets are qualifying assets and the leverage incurred by such SPE may or may not be treated as borrowings by us for purposes of the requirement that we not issue senior securities in an amount in excess of our net assets. We may also engage in transactions utilizing SPEs and securitization techniques where the assets sold or contributed to the SPE remain on our balance sheet for accounting purposes. If, for example, we sell the assets to the SPE with recourse or provide a guarantee or other credit support to the SPE, its assets will remain on our balance sheet. Consolidation would also generally result if we, in consultation with the SEC, determine that consolidation would result in a more accurate reflection of our assets, liabilities and results of operations. In these structures, the risks will be essentially the same as in other securitization transactions but the assets will remain our assets for purposes of the limitations described above on investing in assets that are not qualifying assets and the leverage incurred by the SPE will be treated as borrowings incurred by us for purposes of our limitation on the issuance of senior securities. The Investment Adviser may have conflicts of interest with respect to potential securitizations in as much as securitizations that are not consolidated may reduce our assets for purposes of determining its investment advisory fee although in some circumstances the Investment Adviser may be paid certain fees for managing the assets of the SPE so as to reduce or eliminate any potential bias against securitizations. Our ability to invest in public companies may be limited in certain circumstances. As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Subject to certain exceptions for follow-on investments and distressed companies, an investment in an issuer that has outstanding securities listed on a national securities exchange may be treated as qualifying assets only if such issuer has a market capitalization that is less than $250 million at the time of such investment. Risks Relating to Our Investments We may not realize gains or income from our investments. We seek to generate both current income and capital appreciation. However, the securities we invest in may not appreciate and, in fact, may decline in value, and the issuers of debt securities we invest in may default on interest and/or principal payments. Accordingly, we may not be able to realize gains from our investments, and any gains that we do realize may not be sufficient to offset any losses we experience. See “Business—Our Investment Objective and Policies.” Most of our portfolio investments are recorded at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of our Board of Directors and, as a result, there is uncertainty as to the value of our portfolio investments. A large percentage of our portfolio investments consist of securities of privately held companies. Hence, market quotations are generally not readily available for determining the fair values of such investments. The determination of fair value, and thus the amount of unrealized losses we may incur in any year, is to a degree subjective, and the Investment Adviser has a conflict of interest in making the determination. We value these securities quarterly at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors based on input from the Investment Adviser, our Administrator, a third party independent valuation firm and our Audit Committee. Our Board of Directors utilizes the services of an independent valuation firm to aid it in determining the fair value of any securities. The types of factors that may be considered in determining the fair values of our investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow, current market interest rates and other relevant factors. 49 Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, the valuations may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time due to changes in current market conditions. The determinations of fair value by our Board of Directors may differ materially from the values that would have been used if an active market and market quotations existed for these investments. Our net asset value could be adversely affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of our investments were materially higher than the values that we ultimately realize upon the disposal of such securities. In addition, decreases in the market values or fair values of our investments are recorded as unrealized depreciation. Declines in prices and liquidity in the corporate debt markets experienced during a financial crisis will result in significant net unrealized depreciation in our portfolio. The effect of all of these factors increases the net unrealized depreciation in our portfolio and reduces our NAV. Depending on market conditions, we could incur substantial realized losses which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We have no policy regarding holding a minimum level of liquid assets. As such, a high percentage of our portfolio generally is not liquid at any given point in time. See “—The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business.” Price declines and illiquidity in the corporate debt markets have adversely affected, and may in the future adversely affect, the fair value of our portfolio investments, reducing our net asset value through increased net unrealized depreciation. As a BDC, we are required to carry our investments at market value or, if no market value is ascertainable, at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. As part of the valuation process, the types of factors that we may take into account in determining the fair value of our investments include, as relevant and among other factors: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, merger and acquisition comparables, our principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values of our portfolio companies. Decreases in the market values or fair values of our investments are recorded as unrealized depreciation. The effect of all of these factors on our portfolio can reduce our net asset value by increasing net unrealized depreciation in our portfolio. Depending on market conditions, we could incur substantial realized losses and may suffer additional unrealized losses in future periods, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our investments in prospective portfolio companies may be risky and we could lose all or part of our investment. Some of our portfolio companies have relatively short or no operating histories. These companies are, and will be, subject to all of the business risks and uncertainties associated with any new business enterprise, including the risk that these companies may not reach their objectives, and the value of our investment in them may decline substantially or fall to zero. In addition, investment in the middle-market companies that we are targeting involves a number of other significant risks, including: •These companies may have limited financial resources and may be unable to meet their obligations under their securities that we hold, which may be accompanied by a deterioration in the value of their securities or of any collateral with respect to any securities, and a reduction in the likelihood of our realizing on any guarantees we may have obtained in connection with our investment. •They may have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors’ actions and market conditions as well as general economic downturns. •Because many of these companies are privately held companies, public information is generally not available about these companies. As a result, we will depend on the ability of the Investment Adviser to obtain adequate information to evaluate these companies in making investment decisions. If the Investment Adviser is unable to uncover all material information about these companies, it may not make a fully informed investment decision, and we may lose money on our investments. •They are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these persons could have a materially adverse impact on our portfolio company and, in turn, on us. •They may have less predictable operating results, may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in changing businesses with products subject to a risk of obsolescence and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. •They may have difficulty accessing the capital markets to meet future capital needs. 50 •Changes in laws and regulations, as well as their interpretations, may adversely affect their business, financial structure or prospects. •Increased taxes, regulatory expense or the costs of changes to the way they conduct business due to the effects of climate change may adversely affect their business, financial structure or prospects. We acquire majority interests in operating companies engaged in a variety of industries. When we acquire interests in these companies we generally seek to apply financial leverage to them in the form of debt. In most cases all or a portion of this debt is held by us, with the obligor being either the operating company itself, a holding company through which we own our majority interest or both. The level of debt leverage utilized by these companies makes them susceptible to the risks identified above. In addition, our executive officers, directors and the Investment Adviser could, in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from proposed investments or from our investments in the portfolio companies and may, as a result, incur significant costs and expenses in connection with such litigation. The lack of liquidity in our investments may adversely affect our business. We make investments in private companies. A portion of these investments may be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale, transfer, pledge or other disposition or will otherwise be less liquid than publicly traded securities. The illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to sell such investments if the need arises. In addition, if we are required to liquidate all or a portion of our portfolio quickly, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we have previously recorded our investments. In addition, we face other restrictions on our ability to liquidate an investment in a business entity to the extent that we or the Investment Adviser has or could be deemed to have material non-public information regarding such business entity. Economic recessions or downturns could impair our portfolio companies and harm our operating results. Many of our portfolio companies may be susceptible to economic slowdowns or recessions and may be unable to repay our loans during these periods. Therefore, our non-performing assets may increase, and the value of our portfolio may decrease during these periods as we are required to record the values of our investments at fair value. Adverse economic conditions also may decrease the value of collateral securing some of our loans and the value of our equity investments. Economic slowdowns or recessions could lead to financial losses in our portfolio and a decrease in revenues, net income and assets. Unfavorable economic conditions also could increase our funding costs, limit our access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to us. These events could prevent us from increasing investments and harm our operating results. A portfolio company’s failure to satisfy financial or operating covenants imposed by us or other lenders could lead to defaults and, potentially, termination of its loans and foreclosure on its secured assets, which could trigger cross-defaults under other agreements and jeopardize our portfolio company’s ability to meet its obligations under the debt securities that we hold. We may incur expenses to the extent necessary to seek recovery upon default or to negotiate new terms with a defaulting portfolio company. In addition, if one of our portfolio companies were to go bankrupt, even though we or one of our affiliates may have structured our interest in such portfolio company as senior debt, depending on the facts and circumstances, including the extent to which we actually provided managerial assistance to that portfolio company, a bankruptcy court might re-characterize our debt holding as equity and subordinate all or a portion of our claim to claims of other creditors. Investments in equity securities, many of which are illiquid with no readily available market, involve a substantial degree of risk. We may purchase common and other equity securities. Although common stock has historically generated higher average total returns than fixed income securities over the long-term, common stock has significantly more volatility in those returns and may significantly underperform relative to fixed income securities. The equity securities we acquire may fail to appreciate and may decline in value or become worthless and our ability to recover our investment will depend on our portfolio company’s success. Investments in equity securities involve a number of significant risks, including: •Any equity investment we make in a portfolio company could be subject to further dilution as a result of the issuance of additional equity interests and to serious risks as a junior security that will be subordinate to all indebtedness (including trade creditors) or senior securities in the event that the issuer is unable to meet its obligations or becomes subject to a bankruptcy process. •To the extent that the portfolio company requires additional capital and is unable to obtain it, we may not recover our investment. •In some cases, equity securities in which we invest will not pay current dividends, and our ability to realize a return on our investment, as well as to recover our investment, will be dependent on the success of the portfolio company. Even 51 if the portfolio company is successful, our ability to realize the value of our investment may be dependent on the occurrence of a liquidity event, such as a public offering or the sale of the portfolio company. It is likely to take a significant amount of time before a liquidity event occurs or we can otherwise sell our investment. In addition, the equity securities we receive or invest in may be subject to restrictions on resale during periods in which it could be advantageous to sell them. There are special risks associated with investing in preferred securities, including: •Preferred securities may include provisions that permit the issuer, at its discretion, to defer distributions for a stated period without any adverse consequences to the issuer. If we own a preferred security that is deferring its distributions, we may be required to report income for tax purposes before we receive such distributions. •Preferred securities are subordinated to debt in terms of priority to income and liquidation payments, and therefore will be subject to greater credit risk than debt. •Preferred securities may be substantially less liquid than many other securities, such as common stock or U.S. government securities. •Generally, preferred security holders have no voting rights with respect to the issuing company, subject to limited exceptions. Additionally, when we invest in first lien senior secured loans (including unitranche loans), second lien senior secured loans or unsecured debt, we may acquire warrants or other equity securities as well. Our goal is ultimately to dispose of such equity interests and realize gains upon our disposition of such interests. However, the equity interests we receive may not appreciate in value and, in fact, may decline in value. Accordingly, we may not be able to realize gains from our equity interests and any gains that we do realize on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any other losses we experience. We may invest, to the extent permitted by law, in the equity securities of investment funds that are operating pursuant to certain exceptions to the 1940 Act and in advisers to similar investment funds and, to the extent we so invest, will bear our ratable share of any such company’s expenses, including management and performance fees. We will also remain obligated to pay management and incentive fees to Prospect Capital Management with respect to the assets invested in the securities and instruments of such companies. With respect to each of these investments, each of our common stockholders will bear his or her share of the management and incentive fee of Prospect Capital Management as well as indirectly bearing the management and performance fees and other expenses of any such investment funds or advisers. There may be circumstances where our debt investments could be subordinated to claims of other creditors or we could be subject to lender liability claims. If one of our portfolio companies were to go bankrupt, even though we may have structured our interest as senior debt, depending on the facts and circumstances, a bankruptcy court might recharacterize our debt holding as an equity investment and subordinate all or a portion of our claim to that of other creditors. In addition, lenders can be subject to lender liability claims for actions taken by them where they become too involved in the borrower’s business or exercise control over the borrower. For example, we could become subject to a lender’s liability claim, if, among other things, we actually render significant managerial assistance. Our portfolio companies may incur debt or issue equity securities that rank equally with, or senior to, our investments in such companies. Our portfolio companies may have, or may be permitted to incur, other debt or issue other equity securities that rank equally with or senior to our investments. By their terms, such instruments may provide that the holders are entitled to receive payment of dividends, interest or principal on or before the dates on which we are entitled to receive payments in respect of our investments. These debt instruments would usually prohibit the portfolio companies from paying interest on or repaying our investments in the event and during the continuance of a default under such debt. Also, in the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a portfolio company, holders of securities ranking senior to our investment in that portfolio company typically are entitled to receive payment in full before we receive any distribution in respect of our investment. After repaying such holders, the portfolio company may not have any remaining assets to use for repaying its obligation to us. In the case of securities ranking equally with our investments, we would have to share on an equal basis any distributions with other security holders in the event of an insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of the relevant portfolio company. 52 The rights we may have with respect to the collateral securing any junior priority loans we make to our portfolio companies may also be limited pursuant to the terms of one or more intercreditor agreements (including agreements governing “first out” and “last out” structures) that we enter into with the holders of senior debt. Under such an intercreditor agreement, at any time that senior obligations are outstanding, we may forfeit certain rights with respect to the collateral to the holders of the senior obligations. These rights may include the right to commence enforcement proceedings against the collateral, the right to control the conduct of such enforcement proceedings, the right to approve amendments to collateral documents, the right to release liens on the collateral and the right to waive past defaults under collateral documents. We may not have the ability to control or direct such actions, even if as a result our rights as junior lenders are adversely affected. This risk is characteristic of many of the majority-owned operating companies in our portfolio in that any debt to us from a holding company and the holding company’s substantial equity investments in the related operating company are subordinated to any creditors of the operating company. When we are a debt or minority equity investor in a portfolio company, we are often not in a position to exert influence on the entity, and other debt holders, other equity holders and/or portfolio company management may make decisions that could decrease the value of our portfolio holdings. When we make debt or minority equity investments, we are subject to the risk that a portfolio company may make business decisions with which we disagree and the other equity holders and management of such company may take risks or otherwise act in ways that do not serve our interests. As a result, a portfolio company may make decisions that could decrease the value of our investment. In addition, when we hold a subordinate debt position, other more senior debt holders may make decisions that could decrease the value of our investment. Our portfolio companies may be highly leveraged. Some of our portfolio companies may be highly leveraged, which may have adverse consequences to these companies and to us as an investor. These companies may be subject to restrictive financial and operating covenants and the leverage may impair these companies’ ability to finance their future operations and capital needs. As a result, these companies’ flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions and to take advantage of business opportunities may be limited. Further, a leveraged company’s income and net assets will tend to increase or decrease at a greater rate than if borrowed money were not used. Our portfolio contains a limited number of portfolio companies, some of which comprise a substantial percentage of our portfolio, which subjects us to a greater risk of significant loss if any of these companies defaults on its obligations under any of its debt securities. A consequence of the limited number of investments in our portfolio is that the aggregate returns we realize may be significantly adversely affected if one or more of our significant portfolio company investments perform poorly or if we need to write down the value of any one significant investment. Beyond our income tax diversification requirements, we do not have fixed guidelines for diversification, and our portfolio could contain relatively few portfolio companies. Our failure to make follow-on investments in our existing portfolio companies could impair the value of our portfolio. Following an initial investment in a portfolio company, we may make additional investments in that portfolio company as “follow-on” investments, in order to: (1) increase or maintain in whole or in part our equity ownership percentage; (2) exercise warrants, options or convertible securities that were acquired in the original or subsequent financing or (3) attempt to preserve or enhance the value of our investment. We may elect not to make follow-on investments, may be constrained in our ability to employ available funds, or otherwise may lack sufficient funds to make those investments. We have the discretion to make any follow-on investments, subject to the availability of capital resources. The failure to make follow-on investments may, in some circumstances, jeopardize the continued viability of a portfolio company and our initial investment, or may result in a missed opportunity for us to increase our participation in a successful operation. Even if we have sufficient capital to make a desired follow-on investment, we may elect not to make a follow-on investment because we may not want to increase our concentration of risk, because we prefer other opportunities, or because we are inhibited by compliance with BDC requirements or the desire to maintain our tax status. 53 We may be unable to invest the net proceeds raised from offerings and repayments from investments on acceptable terms, which would harm our financial condition and operating results. Until we identify new investment opportunities, we intend to either invest the net proceeds of future offerings and repayments from investments in interest-bearing deposits or other short-term instruments or use the net proceeds from such offerings to reduce then-outstanding obligations under our revolving credit facility. We cannot assure you that we will be able to find enough appropriate investments that meet our investment criteria or that any investment we complete using the proceeds from an offering or repayments will produce a sufficient return. We may have limited access to information about privately-held companies in which we invest. We invest primarily in privately-held companies. Generally, little public information exists about these companies, and we are required to rely on the ability of the Investment Adviser’s investment professionals to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential returns from investing in these companies. These companies and their financial information are not subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules that govern public companies. If we are unable to uncover all material information about these companies, we may not make a fully informed investment decision, and we may lose money on our investment. We may not be able to fully realize the value of the collateral securing our debt investments. Although a substantial amount of our debt investments are protected by holding security interests in the assets or equity interests of the portfolio companies, we may not be able to fully realize the value of the collateral securing our investments due to one or more of the following factors: •Our debt investments may be in the form of unsecured loans, therefore our liens on the collateral, if any, are subordinated to those of the senior secured debt of the portfolio companies, if any. As a result, we may not be able to control remedies with respect to the collateral. •The collateral may not be valuable enough to satisfy all of the obligations under our secured loan, particularly after giving effect to the repayment of secured debt of the portfolio company that ranks senior to our loan. •Bankruptcy laws may limit our ability to realize value from the collateral and may delay the realization process. •Our rights in the collateral may be adversely affected by the failure to perfect security interests in the collateral. •The need to obtain regulatory and contractual consents could impair or impede how effectively the collateral would be liquidated and could affect the value received. •Some or all of the collateral may be illiquid and may have no readily ascertainable market value. The liquidity and value of the collateral could be impaired as a result of changing economic conditions, competition, and other factors, including the availability of suitable buyers. Our investments in foreign securities may involve significant risks in addition to the risks inherent in U.S. investments. Our investment strategy contemplates potential investments in securities of foreign companies, including those located in emerging market countries. Investing in foreign companies may expose us to additional risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies. These risks include changes in exchange control regulations, political and social instability, expropriation, imposition of foreign taxes, less liquid markets and less available information than is generally the case in the United States, higher transaction costs, less government supervision of exchanges, brokers and issuers, less developed bankruptcy laws, difficulty in enforcing contractual obligations, lack of uniform accounting and auditing standards and greater price volatility. Such risks are more pronounced in emerging market countries. Although currently substantially all of our investments are, and we expect that most of our investments will be, U.S. dollar-denominated, investments that are denominated in a foreign currency will be subject to the risk that the value of a particular currency will change in relation to one or more other currencies. Among the factors that may affect currency values are trade balances, the level of short-term interest rates, differences in relative values of similar assets in different currencies, long-term opportunities for investment and capital appreciation, and political developments. We may expose ourselves to risks if we engage in hedging transactions. We may employ hedging techniques to minimize certain investment risks, such as fluctuations in interest and currency exchange rates, but we can offer no assurance that such strategies will be effective. If we engage in hedging transactions, we may expose ourselves to risks associated with such transactions. We may utilize instruments such as forward contracts, currency options and interest rate swaps, caps, collars and floors to seek to hedge against fluctuations in the relative values of our portfolio positions from changes in currency exchange rates and market interest rates. Hedging against a decline in the 54 values of our portfolio positions does not eliminate the possibility of fluctuations in the values of such positions or prevent losses if the values of such positions decline. However, such hedging can establish other positions designed to gain from those same developments, thereby offsetting the decline in the value of such portfolio positions. Such hedging transactions may also limit the opportunity for gain if the values of the portfolio positions should increase. Moreover, it may not be possible to hedge against an exchange rate or interest rate fluctuation that is so generally anticipated that we are not able to enter into a hedging transaction at an acceptable price. Furthermore, our ability to engage in hedging transactions may also be adversely affected by rules adopted by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or the “CFTC”. The Dodd-Frank Act has made broad changes to the OTC derivatives market, granted significant new authority to the CFTC and the SEC to regulate OTC derivatives (swaps and security-based swaps) and participants in these markets. The Dodd-Frank Act is intended to regulate the OTC derivatives market by requiring many derivative transactions to be cleared and traded on an exchange, expanding entity registration requirements, imposing business conduct requirements on dealers and requiring banks to move some derivatives trading units to a non-guaranteed affiliate separate from the deposit-taking bank or divest them altogether. The CFTC has implemented mandatory clearing and exchange-trading of certain OTC derivatives contracts including many standardized interest rate swaps and credit default index swaps. The CFTC continues to approve contracts for central clearing. Exchange-trading and central clearing are expected to reduce counterparty credit risk by substituting the clearinghouse as the counterparty to a swap and increase liquidity, but exchange-trading and central clearing do not make swap transactions risk-free. Uncleared swaps, such as non-deliverable foreign currency forwards, are subject to certain margin requirements that mandate the posting and collection of minimum margin amounts. This requirement may result in the portfolio and its counterparties posting higher margin amounts for uncleared swaps than would otherwise be the case. Certain rules require centralized reporting of detailed information about many types of cleared and uncleared swaps. Reporting of swap data may result in greater market transparency, but may subject a portfolio to additional administrative burdens, and the safeguards established to protect trader anonymity may not function as expected. Under Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act, we are required to implement and comply with the limits on the amount of derivatives we can enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework we previously used to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, treat derivatives as senior securities so that a failure to comply with the limits would result in a statutory violation and require us, if our use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure amount (10% of net assets), to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. Future CFTC or SEC rulemakings could potentially limit or completely restrict our ability to use these instruments as a part of our investment strategy, increase the costs of using these instruments or make them less effective. Limits or restrictions applicable to the counterparties with which we engage in derivative transactions could also prevent us from using these instruments or affect the pricing or other factors relating to these instruments, or may change availability of certain investments. The success of our hedging transactions depends on our ability to correctly predict movements, currencies and interest rates. Therefore, while we may enter into such transactions to seek to reduce currency exchange rate and interest rate risks, unanticipated changes in currency exchange rates or interest rates may result in poorer overall investment performance than if we had not engaged in any such hedging transactions. The degree of correlation between price movements of the instruments used in a hedging strategy and price movements in the portfolio positions being hedged may vary. Moreover, for a variety of reasons, we may not seek to establish a perfect correlation between such hedging instruments and the portfolio holdings being hedged. Any such imperfect correlation may prevent us from achieving the intended hedge and expose us to risk of loss. In addition, it may not be possible to hedge fully or perfectly against currency fluctuations affecting the value of securities denominated in non-U.S. currencies. We have no current intention of engaging in any of the hedging transaction described above, although we reserve the right to do so in the future. Our Board of Directors may change our operating policies and strategies without prior notice or stockholder approval, the effects of which may be adverse to us and could impair the value of our stockholders’ investment. Our Board of Directors has the authority to modify or waive our current operating policies and our strategies without prior notice and without stockholder approval. We cannot predict the effect any changes to our current operating policies and strategies would have on our business, financial condition, and value of our common stock. However, the effects might be adverse, which could negatively impact our ability to pay dividends and cause stockholders to lose all or part of their investment. Investments in the energy sector are subject to many risks. We have made certain investments in and relating to the energy sector. The operations of energy companies are subject to many risks inherent in the transporting, processing, storing, distributing, mining or marketing of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, coal, refined petroleum products or other hydrocarbons, or in the exploring, managing or producing of such commodities, including, without limitation: damage to pipelines, storage tanks or related equipment and surrounding properties caused by hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, fires and other natural disasters or by acts of terrorism, inadvertent damage from construction and 55 farm equipment, leaks of natural gas, natural gas liquids, crude oil, refined petroleum products or other hydrocarbons, and fires and explosions. These risks could result in substantial losses due to personal injury or loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment and pollution or other environmental damage, and may result in the curtailment or suspension of their related operations, any and all of which could adversely affect our portfolio companies in the energy sector. In addition, the energy sector commodity prices have experienced significant volatility at times, which may occur in the future, and which could negatively affect the returns on any investment made by us in this sector. In addition, valuation of certain investments includes the probability weighting of future events which are outside of management’s control. The final outcome of such events could increase or decrease the fair value of the investment in a future period. Our investments in collateralized loan obligations are subject to additional risks. We may invest in debt and equity interests of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”). Generally, there may be less information available to us regarding the underlying debt investments held by such CLOs than if we had invested directly in the debt of the underlying companies. As a result, we and our stockholders may not know the details of the underlying holdings of the CLOs in which we may invest. The CLOs that we expect to invest in are typically very highly leveraged, and therefore, the junior debt and equity tranches that we expect to invest in are subject to a higher degree of risk of total loss. In particular, investors in CLOs indirectly bear risks of the underlying debt investments held by such CLOs. We will generally have the right to receive payments only from the CLOs, and will generally not have direct rights against the underlying borrowers or the entity that sponsored the CLO. While the CLOs we intend to target generally enable the investor to acquire interests in a pool of leveraged corporate loans without the expenses associated with directly holding the same investments, we will generally pay a proportionate share of the CLOs administrative and other expenses. Although it is difficult to predict whether the prices of indices and securities underlying CLOs will rise or fall, these prices (and, therefore, the prices of the CLOs) will be influenced by the same types of political and economic events that affect issuers of securities and capital markets generally. The failure by a CLO in which we invest to satisfy certain financial covenants, specifically those with respect to adequate collateralization and/or interest coverage tests, could lead to a reduction in its payments to us. In the event that a CLO failed those tests, holders of debt senior to us may be entitled to additional payments that would, in turn, reduce the payments we would otherwise be entitled to receive. If any of these occur, it could materially and adversely affect our operating results and cash flows. In addition to the general risks associated with investing in debt securities, CLOs carry additional risks, including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the fact that our investments in CLO tranches will likely be subordinate to other senior classes of note tranches thereof; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the CLO or unexpected investment results. Our NAV may also decline over time if our principal recovery with respect to CLO equity investments is less than the price we paid for those investments. Investments in structured vehicles, including equity and junior debt instruments issued by CLOs, involve risks, including credit risk and market risk. Changes in interest rates and credit quality may cause significant price fluctuations. Additionally, changes in the underlying leveraged corporate loans held by a CLO may cause payments on the instruments we hold to be reduced, either temporarily or permanently. Structured investments, particularly the subordinated interests in which we intend to invest, may be less liquid than many other types of securities and may be more volatile than the leveraged corporate loans underlying the CLOs we intend to target. Fluctuations in interest rates may also cause payments on the tranches of CLOs that we hold to be reduced, either temporarily or permanently. Any interests we acquire in CLO will likely be thinly traded or have only a limited trading market and may be subject to restrictions on resale. Securities issued by CLOs are generally not listed on any U.S. national securities exchange and no active trading market may exist for the securities of CLOs in which we may invest. Although a secondary market may exist for our investments in CLOs, the market for our investments in CLOs may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods. As a result, these types of investments may be more difficult to value. In addition, our investments in CLO warehouse facilities are short term investments and therefore may be subject to a greater risk relating to market conditions and economic recession or downturns. The senior secured loans underlying our CLOs typically are BB or B rated (non-investment grade) and in limited circumstances, unrated, senior secured loans. Non-investment grade securities are predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal when due and therefore involve a greater risk of default and higher price volatility than investment grade debt. 56 The application of the risk retention rules under Section 941 of the Dodd-Frank Act to CLOs may have broader effects on the CLO and loan markets in general, potentially resulting in fewer or less desirable investment opportunities for us. On December 24, 2016, the final rules implementing the credit risk retention requirements of Section 941 of the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) (the “U.S. Risk Retention Rules”) became effective and generally require one of the “sponsors” of asset-backed securities or a “majority-owned affiliate” thereof to retain not less than five percent of the credit risk of the assets collateralizing the issuer's securities. On February 9, 2018, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit held that the federal agencies responsible for the U.S. Risk Retention Rules exceeded their statutory authority when designating the collateral manager of an “open-market CLO” (described in the DC Circuit Ruling as a CLO where assets are acquired from “arms-length negotiations and trading on an open market”) as the securitizer of the open-market CLO (such decision, the “DC Circuit Ruling”), and subsequently issued a mandate to the lower court (the “District Court”) requiring the District Court to implement the DC Circuit Ruling. As a result of this decision, certain CLO managers of “open market CLOs” will no longer be required to comply with the U.S. risk retention rules solely because of their roles as managers of “open market CLOs”, and there may be no “sponsor” of such securitization transactions and no party may be required to acquire and retain an economic interest in the credit risk of the securitized assets of such transactions. There can be no assurance or representation that any of the transactions, structures or arrangements currently under consideration by or currently used by CLO market participants will comply with the U.S. risk retention rules to the extent such rules are reinstated or otherwise become applicable to open market CLOs. The ultimate impact of the U.S. risk retention rules on the loan securitization market and the leveraged loan market generally remains uncertain, and any negative impact on secondary market liquidity for securities comprising a CLO may be experienced due to the effects of the U.S. risk retention rules on market expectations or uncertainty, the relative appeal of other investments not impacted by the U.S. risk retention rules and other factors. Prepayments of our debt investments by our portfolio companies could adversely impact our results of operations and reduce our return on equity We are subject to the risk that the investments we make in our portfolio companies may be repaid prior to maturity. When this occurs, we will generally reinvest these proceeds in temporary investments, pending their future investment in new portfolio companies. These temporary investments will typically have substantially lower yields than the debt being prepaid and we could experience significant delays in reinvesting these amounts. Any future investment in a new portfolio company may also be at lower yields than the debt that was repaid. As a result, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected if one or more of our portfolio companies elect to prepay amounts owed to us. Additionally, prepayments, net of prepayment fees, could negatively impact our return on equity. Risks affecting investments in real estate. NPRC invests in commercial multi-family residential and student-housing real estate. A number of factors may prevent each of NPRC’s properties and assets from generating sufficient net cash flow or may adversely affect their value, or both, resulting in less cash available for distribution, or a loss, to us. These factors include, but are not limited to: •national economic conditions; •regional and local economic conditions (which may be adversely impacted by plant closings, business layoffs, industry slow-downs, weather conditions, natural disasters, and other factors); •local real estate conditions (such as over-supply of or insufficient demand for office space); •changing demographics; •perceptions by prospective tenants of the convenience, services, safety, and attractiveness of a property; •the ability of property managers to provide capable management and adequate maintenance; •the quality of a property’s construction and design; •increases in costs of maintenance, insurance, and operations (including energy costs and real estate taxes); •changes in applicable laws or regulations (including tax laws, zoning laws, or building codes); •potential environmental and other legal liabilities; •the level of financing used by NPRC in respect of its properties, increases in interest rate levels on such financings and the risk that NPRC will default on such financings, each of which increases the risk of loss to us; •the availability and cost of refinancing; •the ability to find suitable tenants for a property and to replace any departing tenants with new tenants; •potential instability, default or bankruptcy of tenants in the properties owned by NPRC; 57 •potential limited number of prospective buyers interested in purchasing a property that NPRC wishes to sell; and •the relative illiquidity of real estate investments in general, which may make it difficult to sell a property at an attractive price or within a reasonable time frame. To the extent original issue discount (“OID”) and payment in kind (“PIK”) interest constitute a portion of our income, we will be exposed to typical risks associated with such income being required to be included in taxable and accounting income prior to receipt of cash representing such income. Our investments may include OID instruments and PIK interest arrangements, which represents contractual interest added to a loan balance and due at the end of such loan’s term. To the extent OID or PIK interest constitute a portion of our income, we are exposed to typical risks associated with such income being required to be included in taxable and accounting income prior to receipt of cash, including the following: •The higher interest rates of OID and PIK instruments reflect the payment deferral and increased credit risk associated with these instruments, and OID and PIK instruments generally represent a significantly higher credit risk than coupon loans. •Even if the accounting conditions for income accrual are met, the borrower could still default when our actual collection is supposed to occur at the maturity of the obligation. •OID and PIK instruments may have unreliable valuations because their continuing accruals require continuing judgments about the collectability of the deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral. OID and PIK income may also create uncertainty about the source of our cash distributions. For accounting purposes, any cash distributions to stockholders representing OID and PIK income are not treated as coming from paid-in capital, even if the cash to pay them comes from offering proceeds. As a result, despite the fact that a distribution representing OID and PIK income could be paid out of amounts invested by our stockholders, the 1940 Act does not require that stockholders be given notice of this fact by reporting it as a return of capital. Capitalizing PIK interest to loan principal may increase our gross assets, thus increasing our Investment Adviser’s future base management fees, and increases future investment income, thus increasing our Investment Adviser’s future income incentive fees at a compounding rate. Market prices of zero-coupon or PIK securities may be affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes and may be more volatile than securities that pay interest periodically and in cash. Investments in covenant-lite loans may expose us to different and increased risks. Although we generally expect the transaction documentation of some portion of our investments to include covenants and other structural protections, a significant portion of our investments may be composed of so-called “covenant-lite loans.” Generally, covenant-lite loans do not have certain maintenance covenants that would require the issuer to maintain debt service or other financial ratios. Ownership of covenant-lite loans may expose us to different risks, including with respect to liquidity, price volatility and ability to restructure loans, than is the case with loans that have financial maintenance covenants. As a result, our exposure to losses from these loans may be increased. In addition, in the current economic environment, the market prices of covenant-lite loans may be depressed. Risks Relating to Our Securities Our credit ratings may not reflect all risks of an investment in our debt or preferred equity securities. Our credit ratings are an assessment by third parties of our ability to pay our obligations. Consequently, real or anticipated changes in our credit ratings will generally affect the market value of our debt and preferred equity securities. Our credit ratings, however, may not reflect the potential impact of risks related to market conditions generally or other factors discussed above on the market value of or trading market for the publicly issued debt or preferred equity securities. Senior securities, including debt and preferred equity, expose us to additional risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We use our revolving credit facility to leverage our portfolio and we expect in the future to borrow from and issue senior debt securities to banks and other lenders and may securitize certain of our portfolio investments. We also have the Unsecured Notes outstanding and have launched a convertible preferred share offering program, which are forms of leverage and are senior in payment rights to our common stock. 58 Business development companies are generally able to issue senior securities such that their asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% of gross assets less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, after each issuance of senior securities. In March 2018, the Small Business Credit Availability Act added Section 61(a)(2) to the 1940 Act, a successor provision to Section 61(a)(1) referenced therein, which reduces the asset coverage requirement applicable to business development companies from 200% to 150% so long as the business development company meets certain disclosure requirements and obtains certain approvals. On May 5, 2020, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a)(2) to the Company effective as of May 6, 2020. As a result of the stockholder approval, effective May 6, 2020, the asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act applicable to the Company decreased to 150% from 200%. In other words, under the 1940 Act, the Company is now able to borrow $2 for investment purposes for every $1 of investor equity, as opposed to borrowing $1 for investment purposes for every $1 of investor equity. As a result, the Company is able to incur additional indebtedness, and investors in the Company may face increased investment risk. In addition, the Company’s management fee payable to the Investment Adviser is based on the Company’s average adjusted gross assets, which includes leverage and, as a result, if the Company incurs additional leverage, management fees paid to the Investment Adviser would increase. With certain limited exceptions, as a BDC, we are only allowed to borrow amounts or otherwise issue senior securities such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing or other issuance. The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on the Investment Adviser’s and our Board of Directors’ assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing. There is no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful. Leverage involves risks and special considerations for stockholders, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, including the following: •A likelihood of greater volatility in the net asset value and market price of our common stock; •Diminished operating flexibility as a result of asset coverage or investment portfolio composition requirements required by lenders or investors that are more stringent than those imposed by the 1940 Act; •The possibility that investments will have to be liquidated at less than full value or at inopportune times to comply with debt covenants or to pay interest or dividends on the leverage; •Increased operating expenses due to the cost of leverage, including issuance and servicing costs; •Convertible or exchangeable securities, such as convertible notes that may be issued in the future (including certain of the Preferred Stock (as defined herein)), may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common stock including, in the case of the Preferred Stock, the statutory right under the 1940 Act to vote, as a separate class, on the election of two of our directors and approval of certain fundamental transactions in certain circumstances; •Subordination to lenders’ superior claims on our assets as a result of which lenders will be able to receive proceeds available in the case of our liquidation before any proceeds will be distributed to our stockholders; •Difficulty meeting our payment and other obligations under the Unsecured Notes and our other outstanding debt or preferred equity; •The occurrence of an event of default if we fail to comply with the financial and/or other restrictive covenants contained in our debt agreements, including the credit agreement and each indenture governing the Unsecured Notes, which event of default could result in all or some of our debt becoming immediately due and payable; •Reduced availability of our cash flow to fund investments, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes, and limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for these purposes; •The risk of increased sensitivity to interest rate increases on our indebtedness with variable interest rates, including borrowings under our amended senior credit facility; and •Reduced flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, and increasing our vulnerability to, changes in our business, the industry in which we operate and the general economy. For example, the amount we may borrow under our revolving credit facility is determined, in part, by the fair value of our investments. If the fair value of our investments declines, we may be forced to sell investments at a loss to maintain compliance with our borrowing limits. Other debt facilities we may enter into in the future may contain similar provisions. Any such forced sales would reduce our net asset value and also make it difficult for the net asset value to recover. The Investment Adviser and our Board of Directors in their best judgment nevertheless may determine to use leverage if they expect that the benefits to our stockholders of maintaining the leveraged position will outweigh the risks. •In addition, our ability to meet our payment and other obligations of the Preferred Stock, the Unsecured Notes and our credit facility depends on our ability to generate significant cash flow in the future. This, to some extent, is subject to 59 general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors as well as other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot provide assurance that our business will generate cash flow from operations, or that future borrowings will be available to us under our existing credit facility or otherwise, in an amount sufficient to enable us to meet our payment obligations under the Preferred Stock, the Unsecured Notes and our other debt and to fund other liquidity needs. If we are not able to generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt and preferred equity obligations, we may need to refinance or restructure our debt or preferred equity, including the Unsecured Notes, sell assets, reduce or delay capital investments, or seek to raise additional capital. If we are unable to implement one or more of these alternatives, we may not be able to meet our payment obligations under the Preferred Stock, the Unsecured Notes and our other debt. Illustration. The following tables illustrate the effect of leverage on returns from an investment in our common stock assuming various annual returns, net of interest expense. The calculations in the tables below are hypothetical and actual returns may be higher or lower than those appearing below. The below calculation assumes (i) $7.3 billion in total assets, (ii) an average cost of funds of 5.84% (including preferred dividend payments), (iii) $1.9 billion in debt outstanding, (iv) $0.6 billion in liquidation preference of preferred stock paying a 5.50% annual dividend outstanding, (v) $0.6 billion in liquidation preference of preferred stock paying a 6.50% annual dividend outstanding, (vi) $0.5 billion in liquidation preference of preferred stock paying a 5.35% annual dividend outstanding, (vii) $0.2 billion in liquidation preference of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock paying a 6.50% annual dividend (based on the floating rate as of August 17, 2026) outstanding, (viii) $0.8 billion in liquidation preference of preferred stock paying a 7.50% annual dividend outstanding and (ix) $2.8 billion of common stockholders’ equity. Assumed Return on Our Portfolio (net of expenses) (10)% (5)% 0% 5% 10% Corresponding Return to Common Stockholder(1) (38.3)% (24.3)% (10.4)% 3.5% 17.4% The below calculation assumes (i) $7.3 billion in total assets, (ii) an average cost of funds of 5.78% (including preferred dividend payments), (iii) $1.9 billion in debt outstanding, (iv) $0.5 billion in liquidation preference of preferred stock paying a 5.35% annual dividend outstanding, (v) $0.2 billion in liquidation preference of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock paying a 6.50% annual dividend (based on the floating rate as of August 17, 2026) outstanding, (vi) $0.8 billion in liquidation preference of preferred stock paying a 7.50% annual dividend outstanding and (vii) $3.7 billion of common stockholders’ equity. Assumed Return on Our Portfolio (net of expenses) (10)% (5)% 0% 5% 10% Corresponding Return to Common Stockholder(2) (24.2)% (14.7)% (5.2)% 4.3% 13.8% (1) Assumes no conversion of preferred stock to common stock. (2) Assumes the conversion of $1.2 billion in preferred stock at a conversion rate based on a Holder Optional Conversion Fee (as defined in the Prospectus Supplement relating to the applicable offering) of 7.00% of the maximum public offering price disclosed within the applicable prospectus supplements for shares of preferred stock which are subject to such Holder Optional Conversion Fee. The assumed portfolio return is required by regulation of the SEC and is not a prediction of, and does not represent, our projected or actual performance. Actual returns may be greater or less than those appearing in the table. Pursuant to SEC regulations, this table is calculated as of June 30, 2026. As a result, it has not been updated to take into account any changes in assets or leverage since June 30, 2026. The Public Notes present other risks to holders of our common stock, including the possibility that such notes could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party and accounting uncertainty. Certain provisions of the Public Notes could make it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire us. Upon the occurrence of certain transactions constituting a fundamental change, holders of the Public Notes will have the right, at their option, to require us to repurchase all of their notes or any portion of the principal amount of such notes. These provisions could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party. 60 The Unsecured Notes present other risks to holders of our preferred stock. Our obligations to pay dividends or make distributions and, upon liquidation of the Company, liquidation payments in respect of our preferred stock is subordinate to our obligations to make any principal and interest payments due and owing with respect to our outstanding Unsecured Notes. Accordingly, our Unsecured Notes have the effect of creating special risks for our preferred stockholders that would not be present in a capital structure that did not include such securities. Floating rate securities, like the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, have risks that conventional fixed rate securities do not. Because the interest rate of floating rate securities may be based upon the SOFR or term SOFR, there will be significant risks not associated with conventional fixed rate securities. These risks include fluctuation of the dividend rates and the possibility that you will receive a lower amount of dividends in the future as a result of such fluctuations. We have no control over various matters that are important in determining the existence, magnitude and longevity of these risks, including economic, financial and political events. We fund a portion of our investments with preferred stock, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss and the risks of investing in us in the same way as our borrowings. Additionally, the dividend rate on the Floating Rate Preferred Stock only resets in connection with the Board of Director’s declaration of dividends on such Preferred Stock. While the Board of Director’s current practice is to declare dividends on such Preferred Stock once per quarter for the subsequent three months, which presently results in the dividend rate on the Floating Rate Preferred Stock resetting approximately every three months, the Board of Directors may change its practice in this respect in the future. This could result in more or less frequent resets of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock dividend rate, which would impact whether the dividend rate on such Preferred Stock, at any given point in time, reflects market interest rates. If the dividend rate on Floating Rate Preferred Stock does not reflect market interest rates, it could negatively impact the value of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock and investors’ ability to sell such Floating Rate Preferred Stock in any secondary market that my develop. We fund a portion of our investments with preferred stock, which magnifies the potential for gain or loss and the risks of investing in us in the same way as our borrowings. Preferred stock, which is another form of leverage, has the same risks to our common stockholders as borrowings because the dividends on any preferred stock we issue must be cumulative. Payment of such dividends and repayment of the liquidation preference of such preferred stock must take preference over any dividends or other payments to our common stockholders, and preferred stockholders are not subject to any of our expenses or losses and are not entitled to participate in any income or appreciation in excess of their stated preference. We have entered into dealer manager agreements and underwriting agreements pursuant to which we intend to sell shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, the terms of which could result in significant dilution to existing common stockholders. On August 3, 2020, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with Preferred Capital Securities, LLC (“PCS”) (the “Original Dealer Manager Agreement”), amended and restated on February 25, 2021 and further amended on June 9, 2022, October 7, 2022, February 10, 2023, December 29, 2023, October 17, 2024, December 27, 2024, and February 10, 2026 (as so amended, the “Amended and Restated Dealer Manager Agreement”), pursuant to which PCS has agreed to serve as the Company’s agent, principal distributor and dealer manager for the Company’s offering of up to 105,858,302 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of preferred stock, with a $2,646,457,550 aggregate liquidation preference. Under the Amended and Restated Dealer Manager Agreement, the preferred stock may be issued in multiple series, including the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series A4 Preferred Stock, the Series A5 Preferred Stock, the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the Series M2 Preferred Stock, the Series M3 Preferred Stock, the Series M4 Preferred Stock, and the Series M5 Preferred Stock. However, as disclosed in the Supplement No. 1 dated September 6, 2024 and Supplement No. 3 dated December 27, 2024 to the Prospectus Supplement dated December 29, 2023, the Company is no longer offering the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the Series M2 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series M3 Preferred Stock, and the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and, as a result, any additional preferred stock offered under such offering will be only in any combination of our 7.50% Preferred Stock, which are not convertible. The Company may offer any future series of preferred stock, provided that the aggregate number of shares issued across all series of preferred stock under the Amended and Restated Dealer Manager Agreement shall not exceed 105,858,302 shares. On October 30, 2020, and as amended on February 18, 2022, October 7, 2022 and February 10, 2023, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with InspereX LLC (“InspereX Dealer Manager Agreement”), pursuant to which InspereX LLC has agreed to serve as the Company’s agent and dealer manager for the Company’s offering of up to 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of 5.50% Series AA1 Preferred Stock, 5.50% Series MM1 Preferred Stock, 6.50% Series AA2 Preferred 61 Stock and 6.50% Series MM2 Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share; however as disclosed in the Supplement No. 2 dated September 6, 2024 to the Prospectus Supplement dated February 10, 2023, the Company is no longer offering the 5.50% Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the 5.50% Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the 6.50% Series AA2 Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Series MM2 Preferred Stock. On October 30, 2020, February 17, 2022, and October 11, 2022, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 80,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as convertible preferred stock. On May 6, 2026, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating 80,000,000 authorized but unissued shares of Series AA1 Preferred Stock, Series MM1 Preferred Stock, Series AA2 Preferred Stock and Series MM2 Preferred Stock as additional shares of common stock. As a result of such reclassification and designation, we no longer have any authorized shares of Series AA1 Preferred Stock, Series MM1 Preferred Stock, Series AA2 Preferred Stock or Series MM2 Preferred Stock. On May 19, 2021, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement with UBS Securities LLC, relating to the offer and sale of 187,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of Series A2 Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. At any time prior to the listing of the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange, shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock will be convertible, at the option of the holder of the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock (the “Holder Optional Conversion”). We will settle any Holder Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of shares of our common stock over each of the five consecutive trading days ending on the Holder Conversion Exercise Date (such arithmetic average, the “5-day VWAP”). For the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the Series AA2 Preferred Stock, and the Series A2 Preferred Stock, “Settlement Amount” means (A) $25.00 per share (the “Stated Value”), plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Holder Optional Conversion Fee for the respective Holder Conversion Deadline. For the Series M Preferred Stock, “Settlement Amount” means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Series M Clawback, if any “Series M Clawback”, if applicable, means an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such share of Series M stock in the three full months prior to the Holder Conversion Exercise Date. Subject to certain limited exceptions, we will not pay any portion of the Settlement Amount in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued. Beginning on the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock is issued, we may elect to settle all or a portion of any Holder Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. The right of holders to convert a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock will terminate upon the listing of such share on a national securities exchange. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have a Holder Optional Conversion feature. Holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may elect to convert their shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock at any time by delivering a notice of conversion (the “Holder Conversion Notice”). A Holder Conversion Notice will be effective as of the 15th day of the month (or, if the 15th day of the month is not a business day, then on the business day immediately preceding the 15th day) or the last business day of the month, whichever occurs first after a Holder Conversion Notice is duly received (each such date, a “Holder Conversion Deadline”). Any Holder Conversion Notice received after 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on a Holder Conversion Deadline will be effective as of the next Holder Conversion Deadline. For all shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock duly submitted to us for conversion on or before a Holder Conversion Deadline, we will determine the Settlement Amount on any business day after such Holder Conversion Deadline but before the next Holder Conversion Deadline (such date, the “Holder Conversion Exercise Date”). Within such period, we may select the Holder Conversion Exercise Date in our sole discretion. We may, in our sole discretion, permit a holder to revoke their Holder Conversion Notice at any time prior to 5:00 pm, Eastern time, on the business day immediately preceding the Holder Conversion Exercise Date. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, beginning on the earlier of the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued, or the two year anniversary of the date on which a share of Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock has been issued or, for listed shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, five years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued and, for listed shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock, two years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued (the earlier of such dates as applicable to a series of Preferred Stock, the “Redemption Eligibility Date”), such share of Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time or from time to time at our option (the “Issuer Optional Redemption”) upon not less than 10 calendar days nor more than 90 calendar days written notice to the holder prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof, at a redemption price of 100% of the Stated Value of the shares to be redeemed plus unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption. 62 Subject to certain limitations, each share of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock will be convertible at our option, upon not less than 30 calendar days nor more than 90 calendar days written notice to the holder (the “Issuer Optional Conversion”) prior to the date fixed for conversion thereof. We will settle any Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the 5-day VWAP, subject to our ability to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value if the 5-day VWAP represents a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock. For the 5.50% Preferred Stock, “IOC Settlement Amount” means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for conversion. Subject to certain limited exceptions, we will not exercise an Issuer Optional Conversion with respect to a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock until after the date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement with respect to the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock. In connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value. If we do not have or obtain any required stockholder approval under the 1940 Act to sell our common stock below net asset value and the 5-day VWAP is at a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock, we will settle any conversions in connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the NAV per share of common stock at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date of conversion (the "NAV-Based Conversion Rate"). We will not pay any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount from an Issuer Optional Conversion in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the Redemption Eligibility Date. Beginning on the Redemption Eligibility Date, we may elect to settle any Issuer Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. In the event that we exercise an Issuer Optional Conversion with respect to any shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, the holder of such 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock may instead elect a Holder Optional Conversion with respect to such 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock provided that the date of conversion for such Holder Optional Conversion would occur prior to the date of conversion for an Issuer Optional Conversion. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have an Issuer Optional Conversion feature. At a special meeting of stockholders held on June 17, 2025, we obtained stockholder approval under Section 63 of the 1940 Act to issue shares of common stock below net asset value until June 17, 2026. On July 7, 2026, at a special meeting of our stockholders, our stockholders again authorized us to issue shares of our common stock below net asset value during the next 12 months until July 7, 2027. We believe that pursuant to this approval any shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock issued prior to July 7, 2027 may be converted into shares of common stock pursuant to the Issuer Optional Conversion using the 5-day VWAP to determine the conversion rate at any time, including after July 7, 2027. We believe any shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock issued after July 7, 2027 may be converted into shares of common stock pursuant to the Issuer Optional Conversion using the 5-day VWAP to determine the conversion rate only if we have obtained stockholder approval for the period in which such shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock were issued (assuming the 5-day VWAP results in a price below net asset value). The application of Section 63 of the 1940 Act with respect to the conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock under the Issuer Optional Conversion is unclear. It is possible the SEC will assert a position that stockholder approval to issue shares of common stock below net asset value must be obtained for the year in which the Issuer Optional Conversion is exercised, instead of the time at which the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock is issued. If the SEC asserted this position and prevailed, we would be required to obtain stockholder approval under the 1940 Act for the years in which we exercise the Issuer Optional Conversion. Obtaining this approval may cause us to incur additional costs and there can be no assurance such stockholder approval will be obtained. If we cannot obtain stockholder approval required by the 1940 Act to issue shares of common stock below net asset value at the time of an Issuer Optional Conversion, then the Issuer Optional Conversion will be effected at the NAV-Based Conversion Rate. An investment in shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock involves certain additional risks, including the risks discussed herein. For additional information on the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, including the risks involved in investing in the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, please refer to the applicable prospectus supplement pursuant to which such sale is made. The price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly during the period used to calculate any 5-day VWAP with respect to the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock and until settlement of any conversion, and this may make it difficult for holders of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock to resell the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% 63 Preferred Stock or common stock issuable upon conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock when such holder wants or at prices such holder finds attractive. The price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market constantly changes. We expect that the market price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate. Because the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock are convertible into our common stock based on the 5-day VWAP, volatility or declining prices for our common stock during the period used to determine the 5-day VWAP or during the period between when a holder delivers a Holder Conversion Notice and the related Holder Conversion Exercise Date (or the date on which a holder receives the shares of common stock issued upon conversion of their 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock) or the period between when we deliver a Corporation Conversion Notice and the related Corporation Conversion Exercise Date (or the date on which a holder receives the shares of common stock issued upon conversion of their 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock), could have a similar effect on the conversion value of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, and this may make it difficult for holders of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock to resell the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock or common stock issuable upon conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock when such holder wants or at prices such holder finds attractive. Our stock price may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include: •quarterly variations in our investment results; •operating results that vary from the expectations of management, securities analysts and investors; •changes in expectations as to our future financial performance; •the operating and securities price performance of other companies that investors believe are comparable to us; •future sales of our equity or equity‑related securities; •the rate at which investors purchase, sell, short sell or otherwise transact in shares of our common stock; •changes in general conditions in our industry and in the economy and the financial markets; and •departures of key personnel. In addition, in recent years, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons often unrelated to their operating performance. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating results. With respect to the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, the consideration paid upon a Holder Optional Conversion and Issuer Optional Conversion is uncertain. Under the terms of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, we or holders of shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may choose to convert shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock 6.50% Preferred Stock at a time when the market price of common stock has dropped significantly. If we elect to settle conversions in shares of our common stock, this may cause significant dilution to the net asset value per share of our outstanding shares of common stock, including shares of common stock owned by holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock that had previously converted their 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock into common stock. With respect to any conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, we may elect, at our sole discretion and subject to certain restrictions and limitations, to pay any portion (or no portion) of the amount owed in cash and settle the remaining portion in shares of our common stock. We will not pay any portion of the conversion proceeds for a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock from a Holder Optional Conversion in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the five year anniversary of the date on which such share of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued, unless our Board of Directors determines, in its sole discretion, that the issuance of common stock in satisfaction of a Holder Optional Conversion would be materially detrimental to, and not in the best interest of, existing common stockholders. Beginning on the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock are issued, we may elect to settle all or a portion of any Holder Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. The conversion rates for the Holder Optional Conversion and, assuming we have the necessary approval under the 1940 Act, the Issuer Optional Conversion are both based on the 5-day VWAP, which may represent a discount to the NAV per share of our common stock. If we do not have or obtain any required stockholder approval under the 1940 Act to sell our common stock below net asset value, 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock in connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion at a conversion rate based on our NAV per share of common stock if the 5-day VWAP represents a discount to the NAV per share of our common stock. In this circumstance, there may be fewer shares of common 64 stock issued upon conversion of the shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock; while this would reduce dilution to existing common stockholders, including former holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock who had previously converted their holdings to common stock, it would also reduce the proportionate interest in the Company (and thus the economic benefit to the holder of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock) for holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock subject to such an Issuer Optional Conversion. Conversely, a conversion rate based on the 5-day VWAP, if it represents a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock, would result in greater dilution to existing common stockholders (including former holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock who had previously converted their holdings to common stock), and this outcome may be more likely given that the notice period for a Holder Optional Conversion is shorter than the notice period for an Issuer Optional Conversion, so holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock can supersede any Issuer Optional Conversion and obtain a conversion rate based on the 5-day VWAP (assuming the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock is settled in shares of our common stock and not cash). Unlike the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have a Holder Optional Conversion feature. At any time prior to the listing of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange, such shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock will be convertible, at the option of the holder of such 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, as described herein. The Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have a Holder Optional Conversion feature and as such, holders of such shares will have different, and in some respects more limited, liquidity options as compared to holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock should they no longer wish to hold the shares. Redemption of our Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock at the Holder’s option is limited. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are redeemable, at the option of the holder of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock, on a monthly basis (the “Holder Optional Redemption”). For all shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock duly submitted for redemption on or before a monthly Holder Redemption Deadline (defined in the prospectus supplement dated December 29, 2023), the HOR Settlement Amount (as defined below) is determined on any business day after such Holder Redemption Deadline but before the Holder Redemption Deadline occurring two months thereafter (such date, the “Holder Redemption Exercise Date”). Within such period, we may select the Holder Redemption Exercise Date in our sole discretion. We will settle any Holder Optional Redemption by paying the HOR Settlement Amount in cash. The aggregate amount of Holder Optional Redemptions by the holder of Floating Rate Preferred Stock is subject to the following redemption limits: (i) no more than 2% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per calendar month; (ii) no more than 5% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per fiscal quarter and (iii) no more than 20% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per Annual Redemption Period. Redemption capacity of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock will be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the number of shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock, as applicable, submitted in the event that a monthly redemption is oversubscribed, based on any of the foregoing redemption limits. The aggregate amount of Holder Optional Redemptions by the holders of 7.50% Preferred Stock is subject to the following redemption limits: (i) no more than 2% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per calendar month; (ii) no more than 5% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per fiscal quarter; and (iii) no more than 20% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per Annual Redemption Period; plus, for each redemption limit set forth above in clauses (i) through (iii) of this paragraph, an amount of such 7.50% Preferred Stock equal to the lowest excess, if any, between the corresponding applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for Floating Rate Preferred Stock as set forth above and the respective amounts requested for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock on a Holder Redemption Deadline for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock. Additionally, we have covenanted to waive the applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock as set forth in the terms of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock such that holders of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock may, in addition to the amount of Floating Rate Preferred Stock such holders are entitled to redeem pursuant to the terms of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, also redeem an amount of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock equal to the lowest excess, if any, between the corresponding applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for the 7.50% Preferred Stock as set forth in the terms of the 7.50% Preferred Stock and the respective amounts requested for the 7.50% Preferred Stock on a Holder Redemption Deadline for the 7.50% Preferred Stock. 65 Redemption capacity of the 7.50% Preferred Stock will be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the number of 7.50% Preferred Stock, as applicable, submitted in the event that a monthly redemption is oversubscribed based on any of the foregoing redemption limits. An “Annual Redemption Period” means our then current fiscal quarter and the three fiscal quarters immediately preceding our then current fiscal quarter. Shares of Series A4 Preferred Stock and Series A5 Preferred Stock are subject to an early redemption fee if it is redeemed by its holder within five years of issuance. We may waive the foregoing redemption limits in our sole discretion at any time. For the Series A4 Preferred Stock and Series A5 Preferred Stock, “HOR Settlement Amount” means (A) the stated value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, minus (C) the Series A4 Preferred Stock or Series A5 Preferred Stock Holder Optional Redemption fee, as applicable on the respective Holder Redemption Deadline. For the Series M4 Preferred Stock and Series M5 Preferred Stock, “HOR Settlement Amount” means (A) the stated value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, but if a holder of Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock exercises a Holder Optional Redemption within the first twenty-four months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the HOR Settlement Amount payable to such holder will be reduced by (i) during the first twelve months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, in the six-month period prior to the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, and (ii) during the second twelve months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock in the three-month period prior to the Holder Redemption Exercise Date (such amount, the “Series M4 Shares Clawback” and “Series M5 Shares Clawback,” respectively). We are permitted to waive the Series M4 Shares Clawback and Series M5 Shares Clawback through public announcement of the terms and duration of such waiver. Any such waiver would apply to any holder of Preferred Stock qualifying for the waiver and exercising a Holder Optional Redemption during the pendency of the term of such waiver. Although we have retained the right to waive the Series M4 Shares Clawback and Series M5 Shares Clawback in the manner described above, we are not required to establish any such waivers and we may never establish any such waivers. Redemptions pursuant to an Issuer Optional Redemption will not count toward the 2% / 5% / 20% limits above applied to Holder Optional Redemptions by holders of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and Series M5 Preferred Stock. Optional redemptions following death of a holder will count toward the 2% / 5% / 20% limits above but will not be subject to such limits. Moreover, redemptions can only be submitted once per month and we have the option to settle such redemptions up to the Holder Redemption Deadline occurring two months thereafter. Holders of Floating Rate Preferred Stock and Series M5 Preferred Stock may thus experience a significant delay in receiving redemption proceeds. There is no cap on the number of shares of common stock that can be issued upon the conversion of shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock. The conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock into shares of common stock could cause the price of common stock to decline significantly. There is no cap on the number of shares of common stock that can be issued upon the conversion of shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock. Because the number of shares of common stock issued upon conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock will be based on the price of shares of common stock, the lower the price of our common stock at the time of conversion, the more shares of our common stock into which the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock are convertible and the greater the dilution that will be experienced by holders of our common stock. Accordingly, there is no limit on the amount of dilution that may be experienced by holders of our common stock. The issuance of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may be followed by a decline in the price of our common stock, creating additional dilution to the existing holders of the common stock. Such a price decline may allow holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock to convert shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock into large amounts of the Company’s common stock. As these shares of common stock are issued upon conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, our common stock price may decline further. Additionally, the issuance of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock could result in our failure to comply with the Nasdaq Global Select Market’s listing standards. The Nasdaq Global Select Market’s listing standards that may be affected by the issuance of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock include voting rights rules, bid price requirements, listing of additional shares rules, change in control rules and the Nasdaq Global Select Market’s discretionary authority rules. 66 Failure to comply with any of these rules could result in the delisting of the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq Global Select Market or impact the ability to list the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange. The potential decline in the price of our common stock described above may negatively affect the price of our common stock and our ability to obtain financing in the future. In addition, the issuance of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may provide incentives for holders thereof that intend to convert their shares to seek to cause a decline in the price of our common stock (including through selling our common stock short) in order to receive an increased number of shares of our common stock upon such conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, and may encourage other investors to sell short or otherwise dispose of our common stock. As of August 19, 2026, our charter authorized us to issue approximately 3.2 billion shares of common stock, of which approximately 524.8 million were outstanding. Although the Board of Directors can increase the amount of our authorized common stock and reclassify authorized but unissued preferred stock as common stock without stockholder approval, if they did not do so for any reason and our 5-day VWAP fell below approximately $0.45 per share of common stock (assuming all 48,381,408 outstanding shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock as of August 19, 2025 converted), we would be required to settle any conversion of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock in cash (to the extent we had cash available) or list the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange and the value of our shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock would then equal their market price, which may be less than $25.00 per share. Future sales of our common stock in the public market or the issuance of securities senior to our common stock could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and our ability to raise funds in new stock offerings, and may affect the value of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock or equity‑related securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing trading prices of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through future offerings of equity or equity‑related securities, and may affect the value of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of shares of common stock or the availability of shares of common stock for future sale, will have on the trading price of our common stock or the value of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock. Shares of common stock, which shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may be converted into, rank junior to the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock with respect to dividends and upon liquidation. We may choose to convert the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock to shares of our common stock. Holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock may also choose to convert their 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, subject to our election to settle conversions in cash or shares of our common stock or a combination thereof. The rights of the holders of shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock rank senior to the rights of the holders of shares of our common stock as to dividends and payments upon liquidation. Unless full cumulative dividends on our shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock for all past dividend periods have been declared and paid (or set apart for payment), we will not declare or pay dividends with respect to any shares of our common stock for any period. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of shares of our 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock are entitled to receive the Stated Value of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to any accumulated, accrued and unpaid dividends at the applicable rate, after provision is made for our senior liabilities, but prior and in preference to any distribution to the holders of shares of our common stock or any other class of our equity securities junior to any and all shares of our preferred stock outstanding (“Preferred Stock”). 67 Holders of our Preferred Stock have the right to elect members of the Board of Directors and class voting rights on certain matters. Holders of our Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, have the right to elect two members of the Board of Directors at all times and in the event dividends become two full years in arrears, have the right to elect a majority of the directors until such arrearage is completely eliminated. In addition, Preferred Stockholders have class voting rights on certain matters, including changes in fundamental investment restrictions, conversion to open-end status, and plans of reorganization that adversely affect the Preferred Stock and accordingly can veto any such changes. Restrictions imposed on the declarations and payment of dividends or other distributions to the holders of our common stock and Preferred Stock, both by the 1940 Act and by requirements imposed by rating agencies or the terms of our credit facilities, might impair our ability to maintain our qualification as a RIC for federal income tax purposes. While we would intend to redeem our Preferred Stock to the extent necessary to enable us to distribute our income as required to maintain our qualification as a RIC, there can be no assurance that such actions could be effected in time to meet the tax requirements. The trading market or market value of our publicly traded preferred stock may fluctuate. The 5.35% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “5.35% Preferred Stock”) is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “PSEC PRA” and has a limited trading history. Additionally, we may list the 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange upon notice to holders of 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock. We cannot accurately predict the trading patterns of our Preferred Stock, including the effective costs of trading the stock, and a liquid secondary market may not develop. There is also a risk that our publicly traded preferred stock may be thinly traded, and the market for such shares may be relatively illiquid compared to the market for other types of securities, with the spread between the bid and asked prices considerably greater than the spreads of other securities with comparable terms and features. The trading price of any publicly traded preferred stock would depend on many factors, including: •prevailing interest rates; •the market for similar securities; •general economic and financial market conditions; •our issuance of debt or other preferred equity securities; and •our financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, the 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock pays dividends at a fixed rate and the Floating Rate Preferred Stock pay dividends at floating rates (subject to a minimum total dividend rate of 6.50% and a maximum total dividend rate of 8.00%). Prices of fixed income investments tend to vary inversely with changes in market yields. The market yields on securities comparable to the Preferred Stock may increase, which would likely result in a decline in the value of the Preferred Stock. Additionally, if interest rates rise, securities comparable to the Preferred Stock may pay higher dividend rates and holders of the Preferred Stock may not be able to sell the Preferred Stock at the Stated Value or Liquidation Preference (as defined in the applicable prospectus supplement) and reinvest the proceeds at market rates. The Company may be subject to a greater risk in this period of heightened interest rates. There is a possibility that interest rates may continue to rise, which would likely drive down the prices of income- or dividend-paying securities. Holders of the 5.35% Preferred Stock may not be permitted to exercise conversion rights upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. If exercisable, the Change of Control Triggering Event conversion feature of the 5.35% Preferred Stock may not adequately compensate such preferred stockholders, and the Change of Control Triggering Event conversion and redemption features of the 5.35% Preferred Stock may make it more difficult for a party to take over the Company or discourage a party from taking over the Company. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the applicable prospectus supplement), holders of 5.35% Preferred Stock will have the right to convert some or all of their 5.35% Preferred Stock into our common stock (or equivalent value of alternative consideration). Upon such a conversion, the holders will be limited to a maximum number of shares of our common stock equal to the Share Cap (as defined in the applicable prospectus supplement) multiplied by the number of shares of 5.35% Preferred Stock converted. We have a special optional redemption right to redeem the 5.35% Preferred Stock in the event of a Change of Control Triggering Event, and holders of 5.35% Preferred Stock will not have the right to convert any shares that we have elected to redeem prior to the “Change of Control Conversion Date” (i.e., the date the shares of 5.35% Preferred Stock are to be converted, which will be a business day selected by us that is no fewer than 20 days nor more than 35 days after the date on which we provide notice). In addition, those features of the 5.35% Preferred Stock may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making an acquisition proposal for the Company or of delaying, deferring or 68 preventing a change of control of the Company under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of our common stock and Preferred Stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-current market price or that stockholders may otherwise believe is in their best interest. In addition to regulatory restrictions that restrict our ability to raise capital, our credit facility and the deed of trust governing our 5.50% 2030 Notes (the “Deed of Trust”) contain various covenants which, if not complied with, could accelerate repayment under our credit facility or the Deed of Trust, thereby materially and adversely affecting our liquidity, financial condition and results of operations. The agreement governing our credit facility requires us or Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”) to comply with certain financial and operational covenants. These covenants include: •Restrictions on the level of indebtedness that we are permitted to incur; •Maintenance of a minimum level of our stockholders’ equity (common equity plus preferred equity); •Restrictions on the level of indebtedness that PCF is permitted to incur in relation to the value of PCF’s assets; and •Maintenance of a minimum level of interest coverage by PCF. The Deed of Trust requires us to comply with certain financial and operational covenants. These covenants include: •Maintenance of a minimum level of total equity (common equity plus preferred equity); •Maintenance of a maximum ratio of net debt to total assets; •Maintenance of a minimum ratio of total equity (common equity plus preferred equity) to total assets; and •Restrictions on our ability to incur liens. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with these covenants. However, our continued compliance with these covenants depends on many factors, some of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, there are no assurances that we will continue to comply with the covenants in our credit facility or the Deed of Trust. Failure to comply with these covenants would result in a default under our credit facility or the Deed of Trust, as applicable, which, if we were unable to obtain a waiver from the lenders under our credit facility or the bondholders of the 5.50% 2030 Notes, as applicable, could result in an acceleration of repayments under our credit facility or the Deed of Trust, as applicable, which could in turn result in defaults under other indebtedness or agreements, and thereby have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Failure to extend our existing credit facility, the revolving period of which is currently scheduled to expire on June 28, 2028, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position and our ability to pay expenses and make distributions. The revolving period for our credit facility with a syndicate of lenders is currently scheduled to terminate on June 28, 2028, with an additional one year amortization period (with distributions allowed) after the completion of the revolving period. During such one year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due, if required by the lenders. If the credit facility is not renewed or extended by the participant banks by June 28, 2028, we will not be able to make further borrowings under the facility after such date and the outstanding principal balance on that date will be due and payable on June 28, 2029. As of June 30, 2026, we had $562,328 of outstanding borrowings under our credit facility. Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is one-month SOFR plus 205 basis points with a minimum SOFR floor of zero. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the credit facility equal to either 40 basis points if more than 60% of the credit facility is drawn, 70 basis points if more than 35% and an amount less than or equal to 60% of the credit facility is drawn, or 150 basis points if an amount less than or equal to 35% of the credit facility is drawn. 69 The credit facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the credit facility. If we are unable to extend our facility or find a new source of borrowing on acceptable terms, we will be required to pay down the amounts outstanding under the facility during the two-year term-out period through one or more of the following: (1) principal collections on our securities pledged under the facility, (2) at our option, interest collections on our securities pledged under the facility and cash collections on our securities not pledged under the facility, or (3) possible liquidation of some or all of our loans and other assets, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position and may force us to decrease or stop paying certain expenses and making distributions until the facility is repaid. In addition, our stock price could decline significantly, we would be restricted in our ability to acquire new investments and, in connection with our year-end audit, and our independent registered accounting firm could raise an issue as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to refinance our existing Unsecured Notes could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. The Unsecured Notes mature at various dates from July 15, 2026 to March 15, 2052. If we are unable to refinance the Unsecured Notes or find a new source of borrowing on acceptable terms, we will be required to pay down the principal amount outstanding of the Unsecured Notes through one or more of the following: (1) borrowing additional funds under our then current credit facility, (2) issuance of additional common stock or (3) possible liquidation of some or all of our loans and other assets, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. In addition, our stock price could decline significantly; we would be restricted in our ability to acquire new investments and, in connection with our year-end audit, our independent registered accounting firm could raise an issue as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The trading market or market value of our publicly issued debt securities may fluctuate. Our publicly issued debt securities may or may not have an established trading market. We cannot assure our noteholders that a trading market for our publicly issued debt securities will ever develop or be maintained if developed. In addition to our creditworthiness, many factors may materially adversely affect the trading market for, and market value of, our publicly issued debt securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following: •the time remaining to the maturity of these debt securities; •the outstanding principal amount of debt securities with terms identical to these debt securities; •the ratings assigned by national statistical ratings agencies; •the general economic environment; •the supply of debt securities trading in the secondary market, if any; •the redemption or repayment features, if any, of these debt securities; •the level, direction and volatility of market interest rates generally; and •market rates of interest higher or lower than rates borne by the debt securities. Our noteholders should also be aware that there may be a limited number of buyers when they decide to sell their debt securities. This too may materially adversely affect the market value of the debt securities or the trading market for the debt securities. Terms relating to redemption may materially adversely affect our noteholders’ or Preferred Stockholders’, as applicable, return on any debt or preferred equity securities that we may issue. If our debt securities or Preferred Stock are redeemable at our option, we may choose to redeem such securities at times when prevailing interest rates are lower than the interest rate paid by our noteholders or our Preferred Stockholders on their respective securities. In addition, if our debt securities or Preferred Stock are subject to mandatory redemption, or optional redemption triggers in advance of a general no-call deadline, we may be required to, or choose to, redeem such respective securities also at times when prevailing interest rates are lower than the interest rate paid by our noteholders or our Preferred Stockholders on their respective securities. In this circumstance, our noteholders or Preferred Stockholders, as applicable, may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as their securities being redeemed. 70 Our shares of common stock currently trade at a discount from net asset value and may continue to do so in the future, which could limit our ability to raise additional equity capital. Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a market price that is less than the net asset value that is attributable to those shares. This characteristic of closed-end investment companies is separate and distinct from the risk that our net asset value per share may decline. It is not possible to predict whether any shares of our common stock will trade at, above, or below net asset value. The stocks of BDCs as an industry, including shares of our common stock, currently trade below net asset value as a result of concerns over liquidity, interest rate changes, leverage restrictions and distribution requirements. Under the 1940 Act, when our common stock is trading below its net asset value per share, we will not be able to issue additional shares of our common stock at its market price without first obtaining approval for such issuance from our stockholders and our independent directors. On July 7, 2026, at a special meeting of stockholders, our stockholders reauthorized us to sell shares of our common stock (during the following 12 months) at a price or prices below our net asset value per share at the time of sale in one or more offerings subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of its outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale). There is a risk that investors in our common stock may not receive dividends or that our dividends may not grow over time and investors in our debt securities or preferred equity may not receive all of the interest or dividend income to which they are entitled. In addition, if the current period of capital market disruption and instability continues for an extended period of time, there is a risk that investors in our common stock may not receive distributions consistent with historical levels or at all or that our distributions may not grow over time and a portion of our distributions may be a return of capital. We intend to make distributions on a monthly basis to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We cannot assure you that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. If we declare a dividend and if more stockholders opt to receive cash distributions rather than participate in our dividend reinvestment plan, we may be forced to sell some of our investments in order to make cash dividend payments. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. Further, if we invest a greater amount of assets in equity securities that do not pay current dividends, it could reduce the amount available for distribution. The above-referenced restrictions on distributions may also inhibit our ability to make required interest or dividend payments to holders of our debt and preferred equity, as applicable, which may cause a default under the terms of our debt agreements. Such a default could materially increase our cost of raising capital, as well as cause us to incur penalties under the terms of our debt agreements. Moreover, while we have declared common stock distributions through August 2026 at a rate of $0.0350 per share of common stock, we cannot assure you that we will achieve investment results that will allow us to make a specified level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. Our ability to pay common stock distributions might be adversely affected by the impact of one or more of the risk factors described in this Annual Report. In addition, if we are unable to satisfy the asset coverage test applicable to us under the 1940 Act as a business development company or if we violate certain covenants under our existing or future credit facilities or other leverage, we may be limited in our ability to make common stock distributions. If we declare a common stock distribution and if more stockholders opt to receive cash distributions rather than participate in our dividend reinvestment plan, we may be forced to sell some of our investments in order to make cash distribution payments. To the extent we make common stock distributions to stockholders that include a return of capital, such portion of the distribution essentially constitutes a return of the stockholder’s investment. Although such return of capital may not be taxable, such distributions would generally decrease a stockholder’s basis in our common stock and may therefore increase such stockholder’s tax liability for capital gains upon the future sale of such stock. A return of capital distribution may cause a stockholder to recognize a capital gain from the sale of our common stock even if the stockholder sells its shares for less than the original purchase price. Investing in our securities may involve a high degree of risk and is highly speculative. The investments we make in accordance with our investment objective may result in a higher amount of risk than alternative investment options and volatility or loss of principal. Our investments in portfolio companies may be speculative and aggressive, and therefore, an investment in our shares may not be suitable for someone with low risk tolerance. 71 Our stockholders may experience dilution in their ownership percentage if they opt out of our dividend reinvestment plan. All dividends declared in cash payable to stockholders that are participants in our DRIP with respect to dividends declared by our Board of Directors on shares of our common stock, are automatically reinvested in shares of our common stock based on a 5% discount to the market price of our common stock on the date fixed by our Board of Directors for such distribution. As a result, our stockholders that opt out of our DRIP will experience dilution in their ownership percentage of our common stock over time. Stockholders who (or whose broker through which they hold shares) do not elect to receive distributions in shares of common stock may experience accretion to the net asset value of their shares if our shares are trading at a premium and dilution if our shares are trading at a discount. The level of accretion or discount would depend on various factors, including the proportion of our stockholders who participate in the Plan, the level of premium or discount at which our shares are trading and the amount of the distribution payable to a stockholder. Sales or issuances of Preferred Stock at a discount to Stated Value reduces the net assets available to holders of our common stock. We may receive net proceeds from the issuance of Preferred Stock in an amount less than the Stated Value of such Preferred Stock which reduces net assets available to holders of our common stock. Additionally, additional shares of the Company’s 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Preferred Stock DRIP are issued at a 5% discount from the Stated Value of $25.00 per share of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock. Because DRIP-issued Preferred Stock, like all Preferred Stock, has a $25.00 Stated Value, these issuances also reduce the net assets available to holders of our common stock. Such reductions reflect part of the issuance expenses of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock that common shareholders bear. See “Senior Securities, including debt and preferred equity, expose us to additional risks, including the typical risks associated with leverage and could adversely affect our business, financial condition and result of operations.” Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the availability of such common stock for sale (including as a result of the conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock into common stock), could adversely affect the prevailing market prices for our common stock. If this occurs and continues, it could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of securities should we desire to do so. If we sell shares of our common stock or securities to subscribe for or are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to our net asset value per share, stockholders who do not participate in such sale will experience immediate dilution in an amount that may be material. On July 7, 2026, at a special meeting of stockholders, our stockholders authorized us to sell shares of our common stock (during the following 12 months) at a price or prices below our net asset value per share at the time of sale in one or more offerings subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of its outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale). Our stockholders approved our ability to issue warrants, options or rights to acquire our common stock at our 2008 annual meeting of stockholders for an unlimited time period and in accordance with the 1940 Act which provides that the conversion or exercise price of such warrants, options or rights may be less than net asset value per share at the date such securities are issued or at the date such securities are converted into or exercised for shares of our common stock. The issuance or sale by us of shares of our common stock or securities to subscribe for or are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to net asset value poses a risk of dilution to our stockholders. In particular, stockholders who do not purchase additional shares of common stock at or below the discounted price in proportion to their current ownership will experience an immediate decrease in net asset value per share (as well as in the aggregate net asset value of their shares of common stock if they do not participate at all). These stockholders will also experience a disproportionately greater decrease in their participation in our earnings and assets and their voting power than the increase we experience in our assets, potential earning power and voting interests from such issuance or sale. In addition, such sales may adversely affect the price at which our common stock trades. We have sold shares of our common stock at prices below net asset value per share in the past and may do so to the future. In addition, we may issue additional shares of preferred stock or debt securities that are convertible into shares of our common stock. The net effect of both types of offerings would be to increase the number of shares of our common stock outstanding or available, which could negatively impact the market price of our common stock and cause the market value of our common stock to become more volatile. Further, to the extent that shares of our common stock are offered or converted at a price below 72 the then net asset value per share, existing stockholders who do not participate in such offerings would experience dilution of their interest (both voting and economic, in terms of net asset value) in the Company. Our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates is restricted. We are prohibited under the 1940 Act from knowingly participating in certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of our independent directors. Any person that owns, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of our outstanding voting securities is our affiliate for purposes of the 1940 Act and we are generally prohibited from buying or selling any security or other property from or to such affiliate, absent the prior approval of our independent directors. The 1940 Act also prohibits “joint” transactions with an affiliate, which could include investments in the same portfolio company (whether at the same or different times), without prior approval of our independent directors. Subject to certain limited exceptions, we are prohibited from buying or selling any security or other property from or to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and persons with whom we are in a control relationship, or entering into joint transactions with any such person, absent the prior approval of the SEC. On January 6, 2026, we, our Investment Adviser and certain affiliates received an exemptive order from the SEC (the “Order”), which superseded a prior co-investment exemptive order granted on January 13, 2020 (and amended on August 2, 2022), that permits us, among other things, to participate with other funds managed by the Investment Adviser or certain affiliates, including Priority Income Fund, Inc., Prospect Floating Rate and Alternative Income Fund, Inc. and Prospect Enhanced Yield Fund, in certain co-investment transactions, where co-investing would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act, subject to the conditions included therein. Under the terms of the Order, we generally are permitted to co-invest with certain of our affiliates if such co-investments are done on the same terms and at the same time, as further detailed in the Order. The Order requires that a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our Board of Directors make certain findings (1) in most instances when we co-invest with our affiliate in an issuer where our affiliate has an existing investment in the issuer, and either (i) we do not have an existing investment in the issuer or (ii) we do have an existing investment in the issuer, but we are not co-investing on a pro-rata basis with our affiliate, and (2) if we dispose of an asset acquired in a transaction under the Order unless the disposition is done on a pro rata basis. Pursuant to the Order, our Board of Directors oversees our participation in the co-investment program. As required by the Order, we have adopted, and our Board of Directors has approved, policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the terms of the Order, and the Investment Adviser and our Chief Compliance Officer will provide reporting to the Board of Directors. In certain situations where a co-investment with one or more funds managed by the Investment Adviser or its affiliates is not covered by the Order, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in different securities of the same issuer, the personnel of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates will need to decide which fund will proceed with the investment. Such personnel will make these determinations based on policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. The market price of our securities may fluctuate significantly. The market price and liquidity of the market for our securities may be significantly affected by numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not be directly related to our operating performance. These factors include: •significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of BDCs or other companies in the energy industry, which are not necessarily related to the operating performance of these companies; •price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time; •changes in regulatory policies or tax guidelines, particularly with respect to RICs or business development companies; •loss of RIC qualification; •changes or perceived changes in earnings or variations in operating results; •changes or perceived changes in the value of our portfolio of investments; •changes in accounting guidelines governing valuation of our investments; •any shortfall in revenue or net income or any increase in losses from levels expected by investors or securities analysts; •departure of one or more of Prospect Capital Management’s key personnel; •operating performance of companies comparable to us; •short-selling pressure with respect to shares of our common stock or BDCs generally; •future sales of our securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for our common stock or the conversion of such securities, including the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock; •the occurrence of one or more natural disasters, pandemic outbreaks or other health crises; 73 •concerns regarding European sovereign debt; •changes in prevailing interest rates; •prolonged inflation; •litigation matters; •general economic trends and other external factors; and •loss of a major funding source. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has, from time to time, been brought against that company. If our stock price fluctuates significantly, we may be the target of securities litigation in the future. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources from our business. There is a risk that you may not receive distributions or that our distributions may not grow over time. We have made and intend to continue to make distributions on a monthly basis to our common stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We cannot assure you that we will achieve investment results or maintain a tax status that will allow or require any specified level of cash distributions or year-to-year increases in cash distributions. In addition, due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions. Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law and of our charter and bylaws could deter takeover attempts and have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. Our charter and bylaws and the Maryland General Corporation Law contain provisions that may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for our stockholders or otherwise be in their best interest. These provisions may prevent stockholders from being able to sell shares of our common stock at a premium over the current of prevailing market prices. Our charter provides for the classification of our Board of Directors into three classes of directors, serving staggered three-year terms, which may render a change of control or removal of our incumbent management more difficult. Furthermore, any and all vacancies on our Board of Directors will be filled generally only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors in office, even if the remaining directors do not constitute a quorum, and any director elected to fill a vacancy will serve for the remainder of the full term until a successor is elected and qualifies. Our Board of Directors is authorized to create and issue new series of shares, to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of stock into one or more classes or series, including preferred stock and, without stockholder approval, to amend our charter to increase or decrease the number of shares of common stock that we have authority to issue, which could have the effect of diluting a stockholder’s ownership interest. Prior to the issuance of shares of common stock of each class or series, including any reclassified series, our Board of Directors is required by our governing documents to set the terms, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and terms or conditions of redemption for each class or series of shares of stock. Our charter and bylaws also provide that our Board of Directors has the exclusive power to adopt, alter or repeal any provision of our bylaws, and to make new bylaws. The Maryland General Corporation Law also contains certain provisions that may limit the ability of a third party to acquire control of us, such as: •The Maryland Business Combination Act, which, subject to certain limitations, prohibits certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of the common stock or an affiliate thereof) for five years after the most recent date on which the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder and, thereafter, imposes special minimum price provisions and special stockholder voting requirements on these combinations. •The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, which provides that “control shares” of a Maryland corporation (defined as shares of common stock which, when aggregated with other shares of common stock controlled by the stockholder, entitles the stockholder to exercise one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing directors, as described more fully below) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares”) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares of common stock. 74 The provisions of the Maryland Business Combination Act will not apply, however, if our Board of Directors adopts a resolution that any business combination between us and any other person will be exempt from the provisions of the Maryland Business Combination Act. Our Board of Directors has adopted a resolution that any business combination between us and any other person is exempted from the provisions of the Maryland Business Combination Act, provided that the business combination is first approved by the Board of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not interested persons as defined in the 1940 Act. There can be no assurance that this resolution will not be altered or repealed in whole or in part at any time. If the resolution is altered or repealed, the provisions of the Maryland Business Combination Act may discourage others from trying to acquire control of us. As permitted by Maryland law, our bylaws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of our common stock. Although our bylaws include such a provision, such a provision may also be amended or eliminated by our Board of Directors at any time in the future. Your interest in us may be diluted if you do not fully exercise your subscription rights in any rights offering. In addition, if the subscription price is less than our net asset value per share, then you will experience an immediate dilution of the aggregate net asset value of your shares. In the event we issue subscription rights, stockholders who do not fully exercise their subscription rights should expect that they will, at the completion of a rights offering pursuant to the applicable prospectus, own a smaller proportional interest in us than would otherwise be the case if they fully exercised their rights. We cannot state precisely the amount of any such dilution in share ownership because we do not know at this time what proportion of the shares will be purchased as a result of such rights offering. In addition, if the subscription price is less than the net asset value per share of our common stock, then our stockholders would experience an immediate dilution of the aggregate net asset value of their shares as a result of the offering. The amount of any decrease in net asset value is not predictable because it is not known at this time what the subscription price and net asset value per share will be on the expiration date of a rights offering or what proportion of the shares will be purchased as a result of such rights offering. Such dilution could be substantial. We may in the future choose to pay dividends in our own stock, in which case our stockholders may be required to pay tax in excess of the cash they receive. We may distribute taxable dividends that are payable in part in our stock. In accordance with guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service, subject to the satisfaction of certain guidelines, a publicly traded RIC should generally be eligible to treat a distribution of its own stock as fulfilling its RIC distribution requirements if each stockholder is permitted to elect to receive his or her distribution in either cash or stock of the RIC, even where there is a limitation on the percentage of the aggregate distribution payable in cash, provided that the limitation is at least 20%. If too many stockholders elect to receive cash, each stockholder electing to receive cash generally must receive a portion of his or her distribution in cash (with the balance of the distribution paid in stock). If these and certain other requirements are met, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of the distribution paid in stock generally will be a taxable distribution in an amount equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of stock. Taxable stockholders receiving such dividends would be required to include the full amount of the dividend as ordinary income (or as long-term capital gain to the extent such distribution is properly designated as a capital gain dividend) to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for United States federal income tax purposes. As a result, a U.S. Stockholder (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”) may be required to pay tax with respect to such dividends in excess of any cash received. If a U.S. Stockholder sells the stock it receives as a dividend in order to pay this tax, it may be subject to transaction fees (e.g., broker fees or transfer agent fees) and the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of its stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to Non-U.S. Stockholders (as defined in “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”), we may be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such dividends, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in stock. In addition, if a significant number of our stockholders determine to sell shares of our stock in order to pay taxes owed on dividends, it may put downward pressure on the trading price of our stock. It is unclear whether and to what extent we will pay dividends in cash and in our stock. General Risk Factors We may experience fluctuations in our quarterly results. 75 We could experience fluctuations in our quarterly operating results due to a number of factors, including the level of structuring fees received, the interest or dividend rates payable on the debt or equity securities we hold, the default rate on debt securities, the level of our expenses, variations in and the timing of the recognition of realized and unrealized gains or losses, the degree to which we encounter competition in our markets, and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

From time to time, we may become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to intellectual property, employment, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of such matters as may arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We are not aware of any material legal proceedings as of June 30, 2026.

(All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data.) The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this Annual Report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from any results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to the factors discussed in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere herein. Overview The terms “Prospect”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” mean Prospect Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise. Prospect is a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company incorporated in Maryland. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). We were organized on April 13, 2004, and were funded in an initial public offering completed on July 27, 2004. On May 15, 2007, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), a Delaware limited liability company and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are used as collateral for the revolving credit facility at PCF. On September 30, 2014, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary Prospect Yield Corporation, LLC (“PYC”) and effective October 23, 2014, PYC holds a portion of our collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), which we also refer to as subordinated structured notes (“SSNs”). Each of these subsidiaries have been consolidated since operations commenced. We consolidate certain of our wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us in order to facilitate our investment strategy. The following companies are included in our consolidated financial statements and are collectively referred to as the “Consolidated Holding Companies”: Belnick Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Belnick Delaware”); CP Holdings of Delaware LLC (“CP Holdings”); Credit Central Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Credit Central Delaware”); Energy Solutions Holdings Inc.; First Tower Holdings of Delaware LLC (“First Tower Delaware”); MITY Holdings of Delaware Inc. (“MITY Delaware”); Nationwide Acceptance Holdings LLC; NMMB Holdings, Inc. (“NMMB Holdings”); NPH Property Holdings, LLC (“NPH”); NPH Holdco LLC (“NPH Holdco”); Prospect Opportunity Holdings I, Inc. (“POHI”); R-V Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“R-V Holdings”); SB Forging Company, Inc. (“SB Forging”); STI Holding, Inc.; UTP Holdings Group Inc. (“UTP Holdings”); Valley Electric Holdings I, Inc. (“Valley Holdings I”); Valley Electric Holdings II, Inc. (“Valley Holdings II”); and Victor Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Victor Holdings”). We are externally managed by our investment adviser, Prospect Capital Management L.P. (“Prospect Capital Management” or the “Investment Adviser”). Prospect Administration LLC (“Prospect Administration”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser, provides administrative services and facilities necessary for us to operate. Our investment objective is to generate both current income and long-term capital appreciation. We intend to invest primarily in privately owned United States (“U.S.”) middle market companies, in senior and secured first lien loans and, to a lesser extent, second lien loans, as well as equity and equity-linked investments with capital-appreciation potential (such as senior and secured convertible debt, preferred equity, common equity and warrants). Most of our investments will be in private U.S. companies; however, we may also invest to some extent in broadly-traded public companies and non-U.S. companies (subject to compliance with BDC requirements to invest at least 70% of assets in “eligible portfolio companies,” which are generally privately offered securities issued by U.S. private or thinly-traded companies). We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. Our primary investment strategy is investing in private, middle-market companies in the U.S. in need of capital for refinancings, acquisitions, capital expenditures, growth initiatives, recapitalizations and other purposes. Typically, we focus on making investments in middle-market companies with annual revenues of less than $750 million and enterprise values of less than $1 billion. These private, middle-market companies are primarily owned by private equity funded and independent sponsors or us, as well as by a portfolio company’s management team, founder(s), or other investors. Our typical investment involves a senior and secured loan of less than $250 million. 88 Our investments in senior and secured loans are generally senior debt instruments that rank ahead of unsecured debt and equity of a given portfolio company. These loans also have the benefit of security interests on assets of the applicable portfolio company, which often rank ahead of any other security interests. We also make equity and equity-linked investments with capital-appreciation potential (such as senior and secured convertible debt, preferred equity, common equity and warrants). We also invest a lesser amount of our assets in senior and secured debt and controlling equity positions in real estate investment trusts (“REIT” or “REITs”). The real estate investments of National Property REIT Corp. (“NPRC”) are in various classes of developed and occupied real estate properties that generate current yields, including multi-family properties and other tenant-diversified properties; historically, NPRC made investments in structured credit (primarily debt tranches). We historically invested in structured credit (primarily equity tranches). We may also invest in other strategies and opportunities from time to time that the Investment Adviser views as attractive. The Investment Adviser may continue to evaluate other origination strategies in the ordinary course of business with no specific top-down allocation to any single origination strategy. We directly originate the significant majority of our investments through our long-term relationships with private equity funded and independent sponsors, financial intermediaries, and management teams, as well as other sources. We seek to maximize returns, including both current yield and capital-appreciation potential, and minimize risk for our investors by applying rigorous credit and other analyses and cash-flow and asset-based lending techniques to originate, close, and monitor our investments. We are consistently pursuing multiple investment opportunities. There can be no assurance that we will successfully consummate any investment opportunity we pursue. If any of these opportunities are consummated, there can be no assurance that investors will share our view of valuation or that any assets acquired will not be subject to future write downs, each of which could have an adverse effect on our stock price. We hold many of our control investments in a two-tier structure consisting of a holding company and one or more related operating companies for tax purposes. These holding companies serve various business purposes including concentration of management teams, optimization of third-party borrowing costs, improvement of supplier, customer, and insurance terms, and enhancement of co-investments by the management teams. In these cases, our investment, which is generally equity in the holding company, the holding company’s equity investment in the operating company and any debt from us directly to the operating company structure represents our total exposure for the investment. As of June 30, 2026, as shown in our Consolidated Schedule of Investments, the cost basis and fair value of our investments in controlled companies was $3,367,618 and $3,644,274, respectively. This structure gives rise to several of the risks described in our public documents and highlighted elsewhere in this Annual Report. We consolidate all wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us for the purpose of holding our controlled investments in operating companies. There is no significant effect of consolidating these holding companies as they hold minimal assets other than their investments in the controlled operating companies. Investment company accounting prohibits the consolidation of any operating companies. On July 7, 2026, at a special meeting of stockholders, our stockholders authorized us to sell shares of our common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below our net asset value per share at the time of sale in one or more offerings, subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of its outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale). Our previously outstanding 6.375% convertible notes due 2025, which matured during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are referred to as the “2025 Notes” or the “Convertible Notes”. Our previously outstanding 3.706% unsecured notes due 2026, which were redeemed during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are referred to as the “2026 Notes”. Our $264.5 million of 3.364% unsecured notes due 2026 are referred to as the “3.364% 2026 Notes”. Our $254.7 million of 3.437% unsecured notes due 2028 are referred to as the “3.437% 2028 Notes”. Our $182.2 million of 5.50% unsecured notes due 2030 are referred to as the “5.50% 2030 Notes”, and collectively with the 2026 Notes, the 3.364% 2026 Notes, and the 3.437% 2028 Notes, as the “Public Notes”. Any corporate notes issued pursuant to our medium term notes program with InspereX LLC are referred to as “Prospect Capital InterNotes®”. The Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® are collectively referred to as the “Unsecured Notes”. Fourth Quarter Highlights Investment Transactions We seek to be a long-term investor with our portfolio companies. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 we acquired $97,170 of new investments, completed follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies totaling approximately $27,644, funded $20,800 of revolver advances, and recorded PIK interest of $20,707, resulting in gross investment originations of 89 $166,321. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 we received full repayments totaling $21,432, received $35 of revolver paydowns, received $0 in sales, and received $24,360 in partial prepayments, scheduled principal amortization payments, and return of capital distributions, resulting in repayments of approximately $45,827. Debt Issuances and Redemptions During the three months ended June 30, 2026 we repaid $1,854 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® at par in accordance with the Survivor’s Option, as defined in the InterNotes® Offering prospectus. As a result of these transactions, we recorded a loss in the amount of the unamortized debt issuance costs. The net loss on the extinguishment of Prospect Capital InterNotes® in the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $37. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 we issued $6,917 aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® with a weighted average stated interest rate of 7.01%, to extend our borrowing base. The newly issued notes mature between April 15, 2029 and June 15, 2033 and generated net proceeds of $6,832. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 we repurchased $677 aggregate principal amount of the 3.364% 2026 Notes at a weighted average price of 99.02%, including commissions, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, we recognized a net realized gain of $6 from the extinguishment of debt in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the repurchased 3.364% 2026 Notes During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased $25,001 aggregate principal amount of the 3.437% 2028 Notes at a weighted average price of 93.44%, including commissions, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, we recognized a net realized gain of $1,517 from the extinguishment of debt in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the repurchased 3.437% 2028 Notes. Equity Issuances and Redemptions On April 21, 2026, May 19, 2026 and June 18, 2026 we issued 998,885, 1,275,870, and 985,754 shares of our common stock in connection with the dividend reinvestment plan, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, 1,597,774 shares of our Series A1 Preferred Stock, 568,950 shares of our Series A3 Preferred Stock, 19,289 shares of our Series M1 Preferred Stock, and 106,743 shares of our Series M3 Preferred Stock were converted to 21,457,011 shares of our common stock, in connection with Holder Optional Conversions and Optional Redemptions Following Death of a Holder, resulting in a loss from redemption of preferred stock of $5,335. On May 8, 2026, we entered into an equity distribution agreement by and among us, Prospect Capital Management L.P., Prospect Administration LLC, and A.G.P. / Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”), with AGP as sales agent, relating to the offer and sale, by means of an at-the-market offering, of up to 16,000,000 shares, or $400,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our Series A Preferred Stock. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 we issued 626,888 shares of Series A5 Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $14,103, 88,489 shares of Series M5 Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $2,146, and 65,692 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $1,098 each excluding offering costs and preferred stock dividend reinvestment. In connection with our Preferred Stock Dividend Reinvestment Plan, we issued additional Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series A3 Preferred Stock, Series A4 Preferred Stock, Series A5 Preferred Stock, Series M1 Preferred Stock, Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, and Series M5 Preferred Stock of 13,149, 12,988, and 12,797 throughout April, May, and June, respectively. On July 7, 2026, at a special meeting of our stockholders, our stockholders authorized us sell shares of our common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below our then current net asset value per share in one or more offerings subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of our outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale). Investment Holdings As of June 30, 2026, we have $6,342,558, or 216.5%, of our net assets applicable to common shares, invested in 91 portfolio companies and other portfolio investments. Our annualized current yield was 11.8% and 12.2% as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, across all performing interest bearing investments, excluding equity investments and non-accrual loans. Our annualized current yield was 9.0% and 90 9.6% as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, across all investments. In many of our portfolio companies we hold equity positions, ranging from minority interests to majority stakes, which we expect over time to contribute to our investment returns. Some of these equity positions include features such as contractual minimum internal rates of returns, preferred distributions, flip structures and other features expected to generate additional investment returns, as well as contractual protections and preferences over junior equity, in addition to the yield and security offered by our cash flow and collateral debt protections. We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses a beneficial ownership of 25% or more of the voting securities of an investee company. Under the 1940 Act, “Affiliate Investments” are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through owning, controlling, or holding with power to vote, 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. As of June 30, 2026, we own controlling interests in the following portfolio companies: Belnick, LLC (“Belnick”); CP Energy Services Inc. (“CP Energy”); Credit Central Loan Company, LLC (“Credit Central”); Echelon Transportation, LLC (“Echelon”); First Tower Finance Company LLC (“First Tower Finance”); Freedom Marine Solutions, LLC (“Freedom Marine”); InterDent, Inc. (“InterDent”); Kickapoo Ranch Pet Resort (“Kickapoo”); MITY, Inc. (“MITY”); NPRC; Nationwide Loan Company LLC (“Nationwide”); NMMB, Inc. (“NMMB”); Pacific World Corporation (“Pacific World”); QC Holdings TopCo, LLC (“QC Holdings”); R-V Industries, Inc. (“R-V”); Universal Turbine Parts, LLC (“UTP”); Strategic Chemical Solutions Corp. (f/k/a USES Corp.); Valley Electric Company, Inc. (“Valley Electric”); and Victor Technology, LLC (“Victor”). In June 2019, CP Energy purchased a controlling interest of the common equity of Spartan Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Spartan Holdings”), which owns 100% of Spartan Energy Services, LLC (“Spartan”), a portfolio company of Prospect with $61,429 and $51,477 in first lien term loans (the “Spartan Term Loan A”) due to us as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. As a result of CP Energy’s purchase, and given Prospect’s controlling interest in CP Energy, we report our investments in Spartan as a control investment. Spartan remains the direct borrower and guarantor to Prospect for the Spartan Term Loan A. As of June 30, 2026, we also own affiliated interests in Nixon, Inc. (“Nixon”) and RGIS Services, LLC, (“RGIS”).

Investment Valuation Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, management and the independent valuation firm look at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. These investments are classified as Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of debt investments specifically classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy are generally valued by an independent pricing agent or more than one principal market maker, if available, otherwise a principal market maker or a primary market dealer. We generally value over-the-counter securities by using the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers during the relevant period end, which were provided by an independent pricing agent and screened for validity by such service. Certain derivative instruments are valued as Level 2 assets or liabilities using pricing information obtained from third-party pricing services, including IHS Markit. These valuations are based on prevailing market data as of the measurement date and are derived using models that apply well-recognized financial principles. Significant inputs to the valuation models include observable market data such as interest rate curves, forward curves, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates, volatilities, and other market-corroborated inputs. Management and the independent valuation firm evaluate the methodologies and inputs to assess whether the resulting values are representative of fair value. In determining the range of values for debt instruments where market quotations are not readily available, and are therefore classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except CLOs and debt investments in controlling portfolio companies, management and the independent valuation firm estimated corporate and security credit ratings and identified corresponding yields to maturity for each loan from relevant market data. A discounted cash flow technique was then applied using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, to determine a range of values. In determining the range of values for debt investments of controlled companies and equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying a market approach such as using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples, net income and/or book value multiples for similar guideline public companies and/or similar recent investment transactions and/or an income approach, such as the discounted cash flow technique. The enterprise value technique may also be used to value debt investments which are credit impaired. For stressed debt and equity investments, asset recovery analysis was used. 95 In determining the range of values for our investments in CLOs, the independent valuation firm uses a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The valuations were accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view as well as to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations, which are simulations used to model the probability of different outcomes, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows for the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market and certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the corresponding multi-path cash flow model. These investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Board of Directors looked at several factors in determining where within the range to value the asset including: recent operating and financial trends for the asset, independent ratings obtained from third parties, comparable multiples for recent sales of companies within the industry and discounted cash flow models for our investments in CLOs. The composite of all these various valuation techniques, applied to each investment, was a total valuation of $6,342,558. Our portfolio companies are generally lower middle-market companies, outside of the financial sector, with less than $100,000 of annual EBITDA. We believe our investment portfolio has experienced less volatility than others because we believe there are more buy and hold investors who own these less liquid investments. Control Company Investments Control investments offer increased risk and reward over straight debt investments. Operating results and changes in market multiples can result in dramatic changes in values from quarter to quarter. Significant downturns in operations can further result in our looking to recoveries on sales of assets rather than the enterprise value of the investment. Equity positions in our portfolio are susceptible to potentially significant changes in value, both increases as well as decreases, due to changes in operating results and market multiples. Our controlled companies discussed below experienced such changes and we recorded corresponding fluctuations in valuations during the year ended June 30, 2026. Belnick, LLC (d/b/a The Ubique Group) On March 31, 2025, Prospect exercised certain rights and remedies under its loan documents to exercise voting rights in respect of the equity of Belnick and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, appoint new officers, all of whom are our Investment Adviser’s professionals.

The decrease in premium to amortized cost was primarily driven by a softening in cash flow projections across NPRC’s real estate portfolio, an increase in discount and terminal capitalization rates, and higher leverage within the capital structure. Pacific World Corporation Prospect owns 100% of the preferred equity of Pacific World Corporation, which represents a 99.99% fully-diluted ownership interest of Pacific World as of June 30, 2026. Pacific World supplies nail and beauty care products to food, drug, mass, and value retail channels worldwide. The fair value of our investment in Pacific World was $112,412 as of June 30, 2026, a discount of $248,527 to its amortized cost compared to a fair value of $107,970 as of June 30, 2025, a discount of $228,143 to its amortized cost. The increase in discount to amortized cost resulted from increased debt in the capital structure and additional preferred equity funding provided by Prospect. QC Holdings TopCo, LLC On June 30, 2025, Prospect acquired a 99.55% equity interest in QC Holdings, representing a controlling beneficial interest in QC Holdings under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Prospect now holds a 95.4% equity interest in the company. QC Holdings is a consumer-focused provider of alternative financial services and credit solutions. The fair value of our investment in QC Holdings was $100,106 as of June 30, 2026, a premium of $16,015 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $77,286 as of June 30, 2025, equal to its amortized cost basis. The increase in premium to amortized cost resulted from an improvement in financial performance. R-V Industries Inc. Prospect owns 100% of the equity of R-V Holdings, a Consolidated Holding Company. R-V Holdings owns 90.28% of the fully-diluted equity of R-V, with R-V management owning the remaining 9.72% of the equity. R-V is a provider of engineering and manufacturing services to chemical, paper, pharmaceutical, and power industries. The fair value of our investment in R-V was $98,475 as of June 30, 2026, a premium of $30,287 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $105,577 as of June 30, 2025, a premium of $51,389 to its amortized cost basis. The decrease in premium to amortized cost was primarily driven by Prospect’s incremental investment to R-V made in connection with a dividend recapitalization. Strategic Chemical Solutions Corp. (f/k/a USES Corp.) Prospect owns 99.96% of the equity of Strategic Chemical Solutions Corp. as of June 30, 2026. Strategic Chemical Solutions Corp. provides industrial, environmental, and maritime services in the Gulf States region. 100 The fair value of our investment in Strategic Chemical Solutions Corp. was $9,375 as of June 30, 2026, a discount of $12,587 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $14,518 as of June 30, 2025, a discount of $72,258 to its amortized cost basis. The decrease in discount is due to a realized loss recorded in the December 2025 quarter, which reduced amortized cost basis following a period of decreased performance and core asset sales. Universal Turbine Parts, LLC On December 10, 2018, UTP Holdings purchased all of the voting stock of Universal Turbine Parts, LLC (“UTP”) and appointed a new board of directors to UTP Holdings, consisting of three employees of the Investment Adviser. At the time UTP Holdings acquired UTP, UTP Holdings (f/k/a Harbortouch Holdings of Delaware) was a wholly-owned holding company controlled by Prospect and therefore Prospect’s investment in UTP is classified as a control investment. The fair value of our investment in UTP was $124,259 as of June 30, 2026, a premium of $30,800 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $102,728 as of June 30, 2025, a premium of $15,200 to its amortized cost basis. The increase in premium to amortized cost resulted from increased profitability. Valley Electric Company, Inc. Prospect owns 100% of the common stock of Valley Holdings I, a Consolidated Holding Company. Valley Holdings I owns 100% of Valley Holdings II, a Consolidated Holding Company. Valley Holdings II owns 94.99% of Valley Electric Company, Inc., with Valley Electric management owning the remaining 5.01% of the equity. Valley Electric owns 100% of the equity of VE Company, Inc., which owns 100% of the equity of Valley Electric Co. of Mt. Vernon, Inc. (“Valley”) and Comet Electric, Inc (“Comet”), leading providers of specialty electrical services in the states of Washington and California. Valley and Comet are amongst the top 50 electrical contractors in the United States. The fair value of our investment in Valley Electric was $293,854 as of June 30, 2026, a premium of $197,942 to its amortized cost basis, compared to a fair value of $351,291 as of June 30, 2025, a premium of $255,379 to its amortized cost basis. The decrease in premium to amortized cost reflects a reduction in comparable company multiples and the results of the sale transaction, which closed on July 1, 2026. See Recent Developments for additional details. Our controlled investments, including those discussed above, are valued at $276,656 above their amortized cost as of June 30, 2026. Affiliate and Non-Control Company Investments We hold two affiliate investments as of June 30, 2026 (Nixon, Inc. and RGIS Services, LLC, (“RGIS”)) with a total fair value of $30,447, a premium of $17,612 from their combined amortized cost, compared to a fair value of $27,057 as of June 30, 2025, representing a $15,322 premium to its amortized cost. The increase in premium to amortized cost was driven by an improvement in RGIS’ financial performance. With the non-control/non-affiliate investments, generally, there is less volatility related to our total investments because our equity positions tend to be smaller than with our control/affiliate investments, and debt investments are generally not as susceptible to large swings in value as equity investments. For debt investments, the fair value is generally limited on the high side to each loan’s par value, plus any prepayment premium that could be imposed. Note that some of our non-control/non-affiliate investments have larger equity or convertible debt option positions and are therefore more susceptible to changes in value than the rest of our non-control/non-affiliate investments. As of June 30, 2026, our non-control/non-affiliate portfolio is valued at a discount to amortized cost primarily due to nine of our non-control/ non-affiliate investments, Credit.com Holdings, LLC (“Credit.com”), First Brands Group, Aventiv Technologies, LLC, STG Distribution, LLC (f/k/a Reception Purchaser, LLC), Medical Solutions Holdings, Inc., Town & Country Holdings, Inc., Rising Tide Holdings, Inc. (“West Marine”), Precisely Software Incorporated (“Precisely”), and K&N HoldCo, LLC (“K&N”), which are valued at discounts to amortized cost of $93,603, $69,279, $58,108, $48,895, $33,042, $30,098, $26,860, $25,733, and $25,363, respectively. Excluding those non-control/non-affiliate investments discussed above, our remaining non-control/non-affiliate portfolio is valued at a premium of $143,902 to amortized cost as of June 30, 2026. Capitalization Our investment activities are capital intensive and the availability and cost of capital is a critical component of our business. We capitalize our business with a combination of debt and equity. Our debt as of June 30, 2026 consists of: a Revolving Credit Facility availing us of the ability to borrow debt subject to borrowing base determinations; Public Notes which we issued in May 2021, September 2021, and October 2025; and Prospect Capital InterNotes® which we issue from time to time. As of June 30, 2026, our equity capital is comprised of common and preferred equity. 101 The following table shows our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2026: Principal Outstanding Unamortized Discount & Debt Issuance Costs Net Carrying Value Fair Value Effective Interest Rate Revolving Credit Facility $ 562,328 $ 14,128 $ 562,328 $ 562,328 1M SOFR + 2.05 % 3.364% 2026 Notes 264,486 435 264,051 261,169 3.89 % 3.437% 2028 Notes 254,749 2,743 252,006 239,729 3.97 % 5.50% 2030 Notes 182,153 7,369 174,784 165,650 6.76 % Public Notes 701,388 690,841 666,548 Prospect Capital InterNotes® 614,879 7,399 607,480 588,081 6.04 % Total $ 1,878,595 $ 1,860,649 $ 1,816,957 The following table shows our outstanding debt as of June 30, 2025: Principal Outstanding Unamortized Discount & Debt Issuance Costs Net Carrying Value Fair Value Effective Interest Rate Revolving Credit Facility $ 856,322 $ 18,842 $ 856,322 $ 856,322 1M SOFR + 2.05 % 3.364% 2026 Notes 300,000 2,019 297,981 286,707 3.87 % 3.437% 2028 Notes 300,000 4,537 295,463 268,671 3.93 % Public Notes 600,000 593,444 555,378 Prospect Capital InterNotes® 647,232 8,687 638,545 607,339 5.85 % Total $ 2,103,554 $ 2,088,311 $ 2,019,039 The following table shows the contractual maturities by fiscal year of our Revolving Credit Facility, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® as of June 30, 2026: Payments Due by Fiscal Year ending June 30, Total 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 After 5 Years Revolving Credit Facility $ 562,328 $ — $ — $ 562,328 $ — $ — $ — Public Notes 701,388 264,486 — 254,749 — 182,153 — Prospect Capital InterNotes® 614,879 114,422 74,853 92,954 70,093 42,520 220,037 Total Contractual Obligations $ 1,878,595 $ 378,908 $ 74,853 $ 910,031 $ 70,093 $ 224,673 $ 220,037 We may from time to time seek to cancel or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved may be material. In addition, we may from time to time enter into additional debt facilities, increase the size of existing facilities or issue additional debt securities, including secured debt, unsecured debt and/or debt securities convertible into common stock. Any such purchases or exchanges of outstanding debt would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. Historically, we have funded a portion of our cash needs through borrowings from banks, issuances of senior securities, including secured, unsecured and convertible debt securities, or issuances of common equity. For flexibility, we maintain a universal shelf registration statement that allows for the public offering and sale of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, subscription rights, and warrants and units to purchase such securities up to an indeterminate amount. We may from time to time issue securities pursuant to the shelf registration statement or otherwise pursuant to private offerings. The issuance of debt or equity securities will depend on future market conditions, funding needs and other factors and there can be no assurance that any such issuance will occur or be successful. 102 Each of our Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our “Unsecured Notes”) are our general, unsecured obligations and rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to any of our subordinated indebtedness that may be issued in the future. The Unsecured Notes are effectively subordinated to our existing secured indebtedness, such as our credit facility, and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to any existing and future liabilities and other indebtedness of any of our subsidiaries. Revolving Credit Facility On May 15, 2007, we formed our wholly owned subsidiary, PCF, a Delaware limited liability company and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are used as collateral for the revolving credit facility at PCF. Since origination of the revolving credit facility, we have renegotiated the terms and extended the commitments of the revolving credit facility several times. Most recently, effective June 28, 2024, we completed an extension and upsizing of the revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The lenders have extended commitments of $2,121,500 as of June 30, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility includes an accordion feature which allows commitments to be increased up to $2,250,000 in the aggregate. The extension and upsizing of the Revolving Credit Facility extended the maturity date to June 28, 2029 and the revolving period through June 28, 2028, followed by an additional one-year amortization period, with distributions allowed to Prospect after the completion of the revolving period. During such one-year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one-year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we had $623,891 and $570,532, respectively, available to us for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $562,328 and $856,322 outstanding borrowings as of the respective balance sheet dates. See Note 4. Revolving Credit Facility within our consolidated financial statements for additional details. Convertible Notes On March 1, 2019, we issued $175,000 aggregate principal amount of senior convertible notes that mature on March 1, 2025 (the “2025 Notes”), unless previously converted or repurchased in accordance with their terms. We granted the underwriters a 13-day over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional $26,250 aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes. The underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option on March 11, 2019 and we issued $26,250 aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes at settlement on March 13, 2019. The 2025 Notes bore interest at a rate of 6.375% per year, payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 each year, beginning September 1, 2019. Total proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, were $198,674. On March 3, 2025 we repaid the remaining outstanding principal amount of $156,168 of the 2025 Notes, plus interest, at maturity. Following the maturity of the 2025 Notes during the year ended June 30, 2025, none of the 2025 Notes remained outstanding. See Note 5. Convertible Notes within our consolidated financial statements for additional details. Public Notes On January 22, 2021, we issued $325,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes that mature on January 22, 2026 (the “Original 2026 Notes”). The Original 2026 Notes bore interest at a rate of 3.706% per year, payable semi-annually on July 22, and January 22 of each year, beginning on July 22, 2021. Total proceeds from the issuance of the 2026 Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, were $317,720. On February 19, 2021, we issued an additional $75,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes that mature on January 22, 2026 (the “Additional 2026 Notes”, and together with the Original 2026 Notes, the “2026 Notes”). The Additional 2026 Notes were a further issuance of, and are fully fungible and rank equally in right of payment with, the Original 2026 Notes and bore interest at a rate of 3.706% per year, payable semi-annually on July 22 and January 22 of each year, beginning July 22, 2021. Total proceeds from the issuance of the Additional 2026 Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, were $74,061. 103 During the year ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased $57,053 aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes at a weighted average price of 97.44%, including commissions, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, we recognized a net realized gain of $1,264 from the extinguishment of debt in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the repurchased 2026 Notes. During the year ended June 30, 2025, we commenced a tender offer to purchase for cash any and all of the aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 2026 Notes at a purchase price of 99.00%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, $135,731 aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes were validly tendered and accepted, and we recognized a net realized gain of $874 from the extinguishment of debt in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the tendered 2026 Notes. On June 18, 2025, we redeemed the remaining outstanding principal amount of $207,216 of the 2026 Notes, at a price of 100.00%, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The transaction resulted in our recognizing a loss of $998 during the year ended June 30, 2025. Following the redemption, none of the 2026 Notes remained outstanding. On May 27, 2021, we issued $300,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes that mature on November 15, 2026 (the “3.364% 2026 Notes”). The 3.364% 2026 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.364% per year, payable semi-annually on November 15, and May 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2021. Total proceeds from the issuance of the 3.364% 2026 Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, were $293,283. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased $35,514 aggregate principal amount of the 3.364% 2026 Notes at a weighted average price of 96.91%, including commissions, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, we recognized a net realized gain of $1,011 from the extinguishment of debt in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the repurchased 3.364% 2026 Notes. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 3.364% 2026 Notes were $264,486 and $300,000, respectively. On September 30, 2021, we issued $300,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured notes that mature on October 15, 2028 (the “3.437% 2028 Notes”). The 3.437% 2028 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.437% per year, payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2022. Total proceeds from the issuance of the 3.437% 2028 Notes, net of underwriting discounts and offering costs, were $291,798. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we repurchased $45,251 aggregate principal amount of the 3.437% 2028 Notes at a weighted average price of 91.66%, including commissions, plus accrued and unpaid interest. As a result, we recognized a net realized gain of $3,526 from the extinguishment of debt in the amount of the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the repurchased 3.437% 2028 Notes. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 3.437% 2028 Notes was $254,749 and $300,000, respectively. On October 30, 2025, we issued approximately $167,637 in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Series A Notes due 2030 (the “5.50% 2030 Notes”) that mature on December 31, 2030 and bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per annum payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, commencing on March 31, 2026. The 5.50% 2030 Notes are denominated in Israeli Shekels. After the deduction of offering discounts, fees and other offering expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $159,531. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 5.50% 2030 Notes were $182,153 and $0, respectively. The 2026 Notes, the 3.364% 2026 Notes, the 3.437% 2028 Notes, and the 5.50% 2030 Notes (collectively, the “Public Notes”) are direct unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of our unsecured indebtedness from time to time outstanding. See Note 6. Public Notes within our consolidated financial statements for additional details. 104 In connection with the issuance of the 5.50% 2030 Notes, the Company entered into a series of forward currency contracts designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815. The Company uses derivative instruments in connection with its risk management activities to reduce exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk arising from foreign-denominated interest payments and foreign-denominated principal on the 5.50% 2030 Notes. Derivative instruments are carried at fair value on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the fair value of the derivative assets and derivative liabilities were $18,900 and $0, and $0 and $0, respectively. Prospect Capital InterNotes® On February 13, 2020, we entered into a new selling agent agreement with InspereX LLC (formerly known as “Incapital LLC”) (as amended, the “Selling Agent Agreement”), authorizing the issuance and sale from time to time of up to $1,000,000 of Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively with previously authorized selling agent agreements, the “InterNotes® Offerings”). Additional agents may be appointed by us from time to time in connection with the InterNotes® Offering and become parties to the Selling Agent Agreement. Certain notes issued through the InterNotes® Offerings have been repaid and we have, from time to time, repurchased or redeemed such other notes and, therefore, as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the aggregate principal amount of Prospect Capital InterNotes® outstanding were $614,879 and $647,232, respectively. See Note 7. Prospect Capital InterNotes® within our consolidated financial statements for additional details. Net Asset Value Applicable to Common Stockholders During the year ended June 30, 2026, our net asset value applicable to common shares decreased by $59,926, or $0.85 per basic weighted average common share. While our net asset value applicable to common shareholders increased $27,484 and $126,656 due to shares issued at the then-current market prices through reinvestment of dividends and conversions of preferred stock to common stock, respectively, these combined increases in total net asset value resulted in dilution of $0.41 per basic weighted average common share. Also contributing to the decrease were net realized and net change in unrealized losses of $189,914, or $0.40 per basic weighted average common share. Additionally, distributions to common and preferred stockholders of $356,340, or $0.74 per basic weighted average common share, exceeded net investment income of $326,387, or $0.68 per basic weighted average common share, resulting in a net decrease of $0.06 per basic weighted average common share. These decreases were partially offset by other comprehensive income of $5,801, or $0.01 per basic weighted average common share, attributable to gains on forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges. The following table shows the calculation of net asset value per common share as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025: June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 Net assets applicable to common stockholders $ 2,928,846 $ 2,988,772 Shares of common stock issued and outstanding 512,746,556 455,902,826 Net asset value per common share $ 5.71 $ 6.56 105 Results of Operations For information regarding results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2024, see the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. Operating results for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 were as follows: Years Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Investment income $ 639,454 $ 719,436 Total operating expenses 330,192 380,596 Reimbursement of administration expenses (17,125) — Total net operating expenses 313,067 380,596 Net investment income 326,387 338,840 Net realized gains (losses) from investments (223,719) (518,682) Net change in unrealized gains (losses) from investments 47,174 (291,054) Net realized gains (losses) on extinguishment of debt 4,219 972 Net realized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions (1,042) — Net change in unrealized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions 643 — Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations 153,662 (469,924) Preferred stock dividend (106,645) (106,822) Net gain (loss) on redemptions of preferred stock (9,592) (1,937) Gain (loss) on Accretion to Redemption Value of Preferred Stock (7,597) (15,079) Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations applicable to Common Stockholders $ 29,828 $ (593,762) While we seek to maximize gains and minimize losses, our investments in portfolio companies can expose our capital to risks greater than those we may anticipate. These companies typically do not issue securities rated investment grade, and have limited resources, limited operating history, and concentrated product lines or customers. These are generally private companies with limited operating information available and are likely to depend on a small core of management talents. Changes in any of these factors can have a significant impact on the value of the portfolio company. These changes, along with those discussed in Investment Valuation above, can cause significant fluctuations in our net change in unrealized gains (losses) from investments, and therefore our net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations applicable to common stockholders, quarter over quarter. 106 Investment Income We generate revenue in the form of interest income on the debt securities that we own, dividend income on any common or preferred stock that we own, and fees generated from the structuring of new deals. Our investments, if in the form of debt securities, will typically have a term of one to ten years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. To the extent achievable, we will seek to collateralize our investments by obtaining security interests in our portfolio companies’ assets. We also may acquire minority or majority equity interests in our portfolio companies, which may pay cash or in-kind dividends on a recurring or otherwise negotiated basis. In addition, we may generate revenue in other forms including prepayment penalties and possibly consulting fees. Any such fees generated in connection with our investments are recognized as earned. Investment income consists of interest income, including accretion of loan origination fees and prepayment penalty fees, dividend income and other income, including settlement of net profits interests, overriding royalty interests and structuring fees. The following table describes the various components of investment income and the related levels of debt investments: Years Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Interest income $ 581,932 $ 671,109 Dividend income 46,967 19,378 Other income 10,555 28,949 Total investment income $ 639,454 $ 719,436 Average debt principal of performing interest bearing investments(1) $ 4,897,025 $ 5,524,103 Weighted average interest rate earned on performing interest bearing investments(1) 11.88 % 11.89 % Average debt principal of all interest bearing investments(2) $ 5,702,280 $ 6,115,722 Weighted average interest rate earned on all interest bearing investments(2) 10.21 % 10.74 % (1) Excludes equity investments, Subordinated Structured Notes and non-accrual loans. (2) Excludes equity investments and Subordinated Structured Notes. The weighted average interest rate earned on performing interest bearing assets remained relatively flat at 11.88% for the year ended June 30, 2026 from 11.89% for the year ended June 30, 2025. The weighted average interest rate earned on all interest bearing investments decreased to 10.21% for the year ended June 30, 2026 from 10.74% for the year ended June 30, 2025. The decrease is due to an increase in foregone interest due to non-accrual investments. Investment income is also generated from dividends and other income which is less predictable than interest income. The following table describes dividend income earned for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively: Years Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Dividend income R-V Industries, Inc. $ 13,288 $ 8,774 Valley Electric Company, Inc. 10,924 — Universal Turbine Parts, LLC 6,179 — Shoes West, LLC (d/b/a Taos Footwear) 4,075 — The RK Logistics Group, Inc. 2,534 — NMMB, Inc. 2,112 — RGIS Services, LLC 1,612 681 Other transactions 6,243 9,923 Total dividend income $ 46,967 $ 19,378 Other income is comprised of structuring fees, advisory fees, amendment fees, royalty interests, receipts for residual net profit and revenue interests, administrative agent fees and other miscellaneous and sundry cash receipts. The following table describes other income earned for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively: 107 For the Years Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Structuring and amendment fees Help/Systems Holdings, Inc. $ 1,313 $ — Eyefive, LLC (d/b/d Shipoffers) 1,040 — QC Holdings, LLC — 2,319 PeopleConnect Holdings, Inc 974 531 USG Intermediate, LLC 978 1,922 Druid City Infusion, LLC 191 1,379 Shoes West, LLC (d/b/a Taos Footwear) — 1,648 Verify Diagnostics LCC — 1,146 Other transactions 4,504 3,403 Total structuring and amendment fees $ 9,000 $ 12,348 Royalty, net profit and revenue interests National Property REIT Corp. $ — $ 14,825 Other transactions 668 1,013 Total royalty and net revenue interests $ 668 $ 15,838 Administrative agent fees Other transactions $ 887 $ 763 Total administrative agent fees $ 887 $ 763 Total other income $ 10,555 $ 28,949 Other income for the year ended June 30, 2026 decreased by $18,394 compared to the year ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to a $14,825 decrease in royalty and net revenue interests from our investment in National Property REIT Corp. (“NPRC”) and a $3,348 decrease in structuring and amendment fees. Income recognized from dividend income, prepayment premium from early repayments, structuring fees and amendment fees related to specific loan positions and royalty, net profit and revenue interests are considered to be non-recurring income. For the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we recognized $57,242 and $49,858 of non-recurring income, respectively. The $7,384 increase in nonrecurring income during the year ended June 30, 2026 is primarily due to a $27,589 increase in dividend income, partially offset by a $15,170 decrease in royalty and net revenue interests, a $3,348 decrease in structuring and amendment fees and a $1,687 decrease in prepayment premium. 108 Operating Expenses Our primary operating expenses consist of investment advisory fees (base management and income incentive fees), borrowing costs, legal and professional fees, overhead-related expenses and other operating expenses. These expenses include our allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement with Prospect Administration under which Prospect Administration provides administrative services and facilities for us. Our investment advisory fees compensate the Investment Adviser for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions. The following table describes the various components of our operating expenses: Years Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Base management fee $ 130,934 $ 145,756 Income incentive fee 26,508 40,772 Interest and credit facility expenses 129,885 148,275 Allocation of overhead from Prospect Administration 22,095 22,257 Audit, compliance and tax related fees 1,701 4,137 Directors’ fees 600 600 Other general and administrative expenses 18,469 18,799 Total operating expenses $ 330,192 $ 380,596 Reimbursement of administration expenses $ (17,125) $ — Total net operating expenses $ 313,067 $ 380,596 Total gross and net base management fee was $130,934 and $145,756 for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The decrease in total gross base management fee is directly related to a decrease in average total assets. For the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we incurred $26,508 and $40,772 of income incentive fees, respectively. This decrease was driven by a corresponding decrease in pre-incentive fee net investment income (net of preferred stock dividends) to $246,250 from $272,790 for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. No capital gains incentive fee has yet been incurred pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement. During the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we incurred $129,885 and $148,275, respectively, of interest and credit facility expenses related to our Revolving Credit Facility, Convertible Notes, Public Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, our “Notes”). These expenses are related directly to the leveraging capacity put into place for each of those periods and the levels of indebtedness actually undertaken in those periods. The table below describes the various expenses of our Notes and the related indicators of leveraging capacity and indebtedness during these years: Years Ended June 30, 2026 2025 Interest on borrowings $ 109,656 $ 127,171 Amortization of deferred financing costs 8,736 8,530 Accretion of discount on unsecured debt 1,923 2,937 Facility commitment fees 9,570 9,637 Total interest and credit facility expenses $ 129,885 $ 148,275 Average principal debt outstanding $2,112,487 $2,448,302 Annualized weighted average stated interest rate on borrowings(1) 5.20 % 5.19 % Annualized weighted average interest rate on borrowings(2) 6.15 % 6.06 % (1)Includes only the stated interest expense. (2)Includes the stated interest expense, amortization of deferred financing costs, accretion of discount on Convertible and Public Notes and commitment fees on the undrawn portion of our Revolving Credit Facility. 109 Interest expense was $109,656 and $127,171 for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The weighted average stated interest rate on borrowings (excluding amortization, accretion and undrawn facility fees) was 5.20% and 5.19% for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The stable rate was primarily due to a mixture of events with offsetting effects. Increasing effects came primarily from the extinguishment of the Original 2026 Notes, which carried a below average stated rate, an increase to both the average outstanding balance and the stated interest rate on the Prospect Capital InterNotes®, and the issuance of the 5.50% 2030 Notes. These increases were substantially offset by a decrease in the weighted average stated interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility, driven by a decrease in SOFR rates across a stable average drawn balance, and by the maturity of the Convertible Notes, which carried an above average stated rate. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings was 6.15% and 6.06% for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the extinguishment of the Original 2026 Notes, which carried a comparatively lower all‑in rate during the prior‑year period, an increase in the all‑in rate on the Prospect Capital InterNotes®, and the issuance of the 5.50% 2030 Notes. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in the all‑in rate on the Revolving Credit Facility and the maturity of the Convertible Notes. In December 2025, Prospect Administration finalized a litigation settlement related to a portfolio company owned by the Company that provided $20,500 in proceeds to Prospect Administration. As of June 30, 2026, Prospect Administration sent $2,369 of the proceeds to the Company for reimbursement of external legal fees previously incurred by us related to the litigation, which is recorded within the reimbursement of administrative expenses presented in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended June 30, 2026. From the remaining proceeds, $3,375 was sent to the portfolio company involved in the litigation settlement, $14,756 was used to offset the below allocations of overhead expense from Prospect Administration to the Company during the year ended June 30, 2026. The gross allocation of overhead expense from Prospect Administration was $22,095 and $22,257 for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. The $17,125 in litigation settlement proceeds discussed above was recorded in the year ended June 30, 2026 to offset this allocation of overhead expense and is presented as a reimbursement of administrative expenses to arrive at the total net operating expenses reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Prospect Administration received estimated payments of $1,534 and $2,615 directly from our portfolio companies for legal, tax, and other administrative services during the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the administrative services cost payable by us to Prospect Administration. Had Prospect Administration not received these payments during the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, Prospect Administration’s charges for its administrative services during the respective periods would have increased by this amount. Total operating expenses, excluding investment advisory fees, interest and credit facility expenses, and allocation of overhead from Prospect Administration, net of any expense reimbursements, were $20,770 and $23,536 for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in legal, audit, compliance and tax related fees, offset by an increase in other general and administrative expenses. 110 Net Realized Gains (Losses) The following table details net realized gains (losses) from investments for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025: Years Ended June 30, Portfolio Company 2026 2025 NMMB, Inc. $ 2,108 $ 6,366 Global Tel*Link Corporation (d./b/a ViaPath Technologies) 473 — Engine Group, Inc 27 Other transactions, net 14 671 Research Now Group, LLC and Dynata, LLC (1) 2 (48,118) Wellful, Inc. — (3,750) STG Distribution, LLC (f/k/a Reception Purchaser, LLC) — (5,511) Strategic Materials Holding Corp. — 2 Wellpath Holdings, Inc. — (33,750) Easy Gardener Products, Inc. — (2,000) Structured Subordinated Notes, net (3) (4,936) (432,592) Redstone Holdco 2 LP (4) (29,124) — Echelon Transportation, LLC (2) (52,334) — USES Corp.(2) (66,219) — United Sporting Companies, Inc.

A portion of the cost basis exchanged was written-off for tax purposes and we recorded a realized loss of $48,118 while reversing our previous previously recorded unrealized losses related to our investment in Research Now Group, LLC and Dynata, LLC. (2)During fiscal year 2025, the Company elected to exit its exposure to SSN investments. As a result, the Company ceased new originations in that asset class and initiated a full wind‑down of the portfolio. For the year ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized realized losses of $432,592 and a change in unrealized gain of $89,170. Net Change in Unrealized Gain/Loss from Derivative Instruments and Foreign Currency Transactions During the year ended June 30, 2026, we recorded a net change in unrealized gain of $643 from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions. During the year ended June 30, 2025, there were no net changes in unrealized gains or losses from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions. 114 Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources For the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, our operating activities provided $516,306 and provided $523,171 of cash, respectively. The $6,865 decrease is primarily driven by a $474,386 decrease in repayments and sales of investments and a $48,955 decrease in net reductions to Subordinated Structured Notes and related investment costs, offset partially by a $420,021 decrease in payments for purchases of investments and a $65,992 decrease in due from broker for the year ended June 30, 2026 compared to the year ended June 30, 2025. There were no investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. Financing activities used $523,598 and used $558,255 of cash during the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, which included dividend payments and distributions to common and preferred stockholders of $335,548 and $332,392, respectively. The $34,657 decrease in cash used by financing activities is primarily driven by a $423,849 decrease in redemptions and repurchases of Unsecured Notes, and a $42,659 increase in issuances of Unsecured Notes. These increases were partially offset by a $355,520 decrease in net borrowings under the Revolving Credit facility, and a $70,864 decrease in net proceeds from issuances of preferred stock, for the year ended June 30, 2026 compared to the year ended June 30, 2025. Our primary uses of funds have been to continue to invest in portfolio companies, through both debt and equity investments, to repay outstanding borrowings and to make cash distributions to our stockholders. Our primary sources of funds have historically been issuances of debt and common equity, and beginning with our year ended June 30, 2021, issuances of preferred equity. We have and may continue to fund a portion of our cash needs through repayments and opportunistic sales of our existing investment portfolio. We may also securitize a portion of our investments in unsecured or senior secured loans or other assets. Our objective is to put in place such borrowings in order to enable us to expand our portfolio. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we borrowed $1,217,999 and we made repayments totaling $1,511,993 under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2026, our outstanding balance on the Revolving Credit Facility was $562,328. As of June 30, 2026, we had, net of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs, $690,841 outstanding on the Public Notes and $607,480 outstanding on the Prospect Capital InterNotes® (See “Capitalization” above). Undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans to our portfolio companies incur commitment and unused fees ranging from 0.00% to 3.00%. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we had $64,611 and $40,707, respectively, of undrawn revolver and delayed draw term loan commitments to our portfolio companies, of which $52,446 and $15,900 are considered at the Company’s sole discretion. The fair value of our undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans was zero as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, as they were all floating rate instruments that repriced frequently. On February 10, 2026, we filed a registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-293349) that was effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and which replaced our previously effective registration statement on Form N-2 that had been filed on February 10, 2023 and which was also effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act. The registration statement permits us to issue, through one or more transactions, an indeterminate amount of securities, consisting of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, subscription rights to purchase our securities, warrants representing rights to purchase our securities or separately tradable units combining two or more of our securities. Preferred Stock On August 3, 2020, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with Preferred Capital Securities, LLC (“PCS”), as amended on June 9, 2022, October 7, 2022, February 10, 2023, December 29, 2023, October 17, 2024, December 27, 2024, and February 10, 2026, pursuant to which PCS has agreed to serve as the Company’s agent, principal distributor and dealer manager for the Company’s offering of up to 105,858,302 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. Such preferred stock may be issued in multiple series, including the 5.50% Series A1 Preferred Stock (“Series A1 Preferred Stock”), the 5.50% Series M1 Preferred Stock (“Series M1 Preferred Stock”), the 5.50% Series M2 Preferred Stock (“Series M2 Preferred Stock”), the 6.50% Series A3 Preferred Stock (“Series A3 Preferred Stock”), the 6.50% Series M3 Preferred Stock (“Series M3 Preferred Stock”), the Floating Rate Series A4 Preferred Stock (“Series A4 Preferred Stock”), the Floating Rate Series M4 Preferred Stock (“Series M4 Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series A4 Preferred Stock, the “Floating Rate Preferred Stock”), the 7.50% Series A5 Preferred Stock (“Series A5 Preferred Stock”), and the 7.50% Series M5 Preferred Stock (“Series M5 Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series A5 Preferred Stock, the “7.50% Preferred Stock”). However, as disclosed in the Supplement No. 1 dated September 6, 2024 and Supplement No. 3 dated December 27, 2024 to the Prospectus Supplement dated December 29, 2023, the Company is no longer offering the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the Series M2 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series M3 Preferred Stock, and the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and, as a result, any additional preferred stock offered under this offering will be only in any combination of our 7.50% Preferred Stock, which are not convertible. In connection with such offering, on August 3, 2020, June 9, 2022, October 11, 2022, February 10, 2023, December 28, 2023 (two filings), October 17, 2024, and December 27, 115 2024 we filed Articles Supplementary with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (“SDAT”), reclassifying and designating 120,000,000, 60,000,000, 120,000,000, 60,000,000, 160,000,000, 40,000,000, 20,000,000, and 180,000,000 shares, respectively, of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock. On October 30, 2020, and as amended on February 18, 2022, October 7, 2022, and February 10, 2023, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with InspereX LLC, pursuant to which InspereX LLC has agreed to serve as the Company’s agent and dealer manager for the Company’s offering of up to 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. Such preferred stock will initially be issued in multiple series, including the 5.50% Series AA1 Preferred Stock (the “Series AA1 Preferred Stock”), the 5.50% Series MM1 Preferred Stock (the “Series MM1 Preferred Stock”), the 6.50% Series AA2 Preferred Stock (the “Series AA2 Preferred Stock”), and the 6.50% Series MM2 Preferred Stock (the “Series MM2 Preferred Stock” and together with the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the Series M2 Preferred Stock, the Series M3 Preferred Stock, and the Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the “Series M Preferred Stock” and the Series MM2 Preferred Stock, together with the Series AA2 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock and the Series M3 Preferred Stock, the “6.50% Preferred Stock”); however as disclosed in the Supplement No. 2 dated September 6, 2024 to the Prospectus Supplement dated February 10, 2023, the Company is no longer offering the Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the Series AA2 Preferred Stock and the Series MM2 Preferred Stock. On October 30, 2020, February 17, 2022, and October 11, 2022, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 80,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as convertible preferred stock. On May 6, 2026, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating 80,000,000 authorized but unissued shares of Series AA1 Preferred Stock, Series MM1 Preferred Stock, Series AA2 Preferred Stock and Series MM2 Preferred Stock as additional shares of common stock. As a result of such reclassification and designation, we no longer have any authorized shares of Series AA1 Preferred Stock, Series MM1 Preferred Stock, Series AA2 Preferred Stock or Series MM2 Preferred Stock. On May 19, 2021, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement with UBS Securities LLC, relating to the offer and sale of 187,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of 5.50% Series A2 Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (the “Series A2 Preferred Stock”, and together with the Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series M1 Preferred Stock, Series M2 Preferred Stock, Series AA1 Preferred Stock, and Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the “5.50% Preferred Stock”). The issuance of the Series A2 Preferred Stock settled on May 26, 2021. In connection with such offering, on May 19, 2021, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as Convertible Preferred Stock. In connection with the offerings of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, the 6.50% Preferred Stock, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, and the 7.50% Preferred Stock, we adopted and amended, respectively, a preferred stock dividend reinvestment plan (the “Preferred Stock Plan” or the “Preferred Stock DRIP”), pursuant to which (i) holders of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and the 7.50% Preferred Stock will have dividends on their Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock reinvested in additional shares of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock at a price per share of $25.00, and (ii) holders of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock will have dividends on their 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock automatically reinvested in additional shares of such 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, at a price per share of $23.75 (95% of the stated value of $25.00 per share), if they elect. At any time prior to the listing of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange, shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock (the “Holder Optional Conversion”). We will settle any Holder Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of shares of our common stock over each of the five consecutive trading days ending on the Holder Conversion Exercise Date (such arithmetic average, the “5-day VWAP”). For the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the Series AA2 Preferred Stock and the Series A2 Preferred Stock, “Settlement Amount” means (A) $25.00 per share (the “Stated Value”), plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Holder Optional Conversion Fee for the respective Holder Conversion Deadline. For the Series M Preferred Stock, “Settlement Amount” means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Series M Clawback, if any. “Series M Clawback”, if applicable, means an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such share of Series M stock in the three full months prior to the Holder Conversion Exercise Date. Subject to certain limited exceptions, we will not pay any portion of the Settlement Amount in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued. Beginning on the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock 116 or 6.50% Preferred Stock is issued, we may elect to settle all or a portion of any Holder Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. The right of holders to convert a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock will terminate upon the listing of such share on a national securities exchange. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have a Holder Optional Conversion feature. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, beginning on the earlier of the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued, or the two year anniversary of the date on which a share of Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock has been issued or, for listed shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, five years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued and, for listed shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock, two years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued (the earlier of such dates as applicable to a series of Preferred Stock, the “Redemption Eligibility Date”), such share of Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time or from time to time at our option (the “Issuer Optional Redemption”), at a redemption price of 100% of the Stated Value of the shares to be redeemed plus unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are redeemable, at the option of the holder of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock, on a monthly basis (the “Holder Optional Redemption”). For all shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock duly submitted for redemption on or before a monthly Holder Redemption Deadline (defined in the prospectus supplement dated December 29, 2023), the HOR Settlement Amount (as defined below) is determined on any business day after such Holder Redemption Deadline but before the Holder Redemption Deadline occurring two months thereafter (such date, the “Holder Redemption Exercise Date”). Within such period, we may select the Holder Redemption Exercise Date in our sole discretion. We will settle any Holder Optional Redemption by paying the HOR Settlement Amount in cash. The aggregate amount of Holder Optional Redemptions by the holder of Floating Rate Preferred Stock is subject to the following redemption limits: (i) no more than 2% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per calendar month; (ii) no more than 5% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per fiscal quarter and (iii) no more than 20% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per Annual Redemption Period. Redemption capacity of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock will be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the number of shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock, as applicable, submitted in the event that a monthly redemption is oversubscribed, based on any of the foregoing redemption limits. The aggregate amount of Holder Optional Redemptions by the holders of 7.50% Preferred Stock is subject to the following redemption limits: (i) no more than 2% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per calendar month; (ii) no more than 5% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per fiscal quarter; and (iii) no more than 20% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per Annual Redemption Period; plus, for each redemption limit set forth above in clauses (i) through (iii) of this paragraph, an amount of such 7.50% Preferred Stock equal to the lowest excess, if any, between the corresponding applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for Floating Rate Preferred Stock as set forth above and the respective amounts requested for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock on a Holder Redemption Deadline for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock. Additionally, we have covenanted to waive the applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock as set forth in the terms of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock such that holders of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock may, in addition to the amount of Floating Rate Preferred Stock such holders are entitled to redeem pursuant to the terms of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, also redeem an amount of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock equal to the lowest excess, if any, between the corresponding applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for the 7.50% Preferred Stock as set forth in the terms of the 7.50% Preferred Stock and the respective amounts requested for the 7.50% Preferred Stock on a Holder Redemption Deadline for the 7.50% Preferred Stock. Redemption capacity of the 7.50% Preferred Stock will be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the number of 7.50% Preferred Stock, as applicable, submitted in the event that a monthly redemption is oversubscribed based on any of the foregoing redemption limits. An “Annual Redemption Period” means our then current fiscal quarter and the three fiscal quarters immediately preceding our then current fiscal quarter. Shares of Series A4 Preferred Stock and Series A5 Preferred Stock are subject to an early redemption fee if it is redeemed by its holder within five years of issuance. We may waive the foregoing redemption limits in our sole discretion at any time. 117 For the Series A4 Preferred Stock and Series A5 Preferred Stock, “HOR Settlement Amount” means (A) the stated value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, minus (C) the Series A4 Preferred Stock or Series A5 Preferred Stock Holder Optional Redemption fee, as applicable on the respective Holder Redemption Deadline. For the Series M4 Preferred Stock and Series M5 Preferred Stock, “HOR Settlement Amount” means (A) the stated value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, but if a holder of Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock exercises a Holder Optional Redemption within the first twenty-four months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the HOR Settlement Amount payable to such holder will be reduced by (i) during the first twelve months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, in the six-month period prior to the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, and (ii) during the second twelve months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock in the three-month period prior to the Holder Redemption Exercise Date (such amount, the “Series M4 Shares Clawback” and “Series M5 Shares Clawback,” respectively). We are permitted to waive the Series M4 Shares Clawback and Series M5 Shares Clawback through public announcement of the terms and duration of such waiver. Any such waiver would apply to any holder of Preferred Stock qualifying for the waiver and exercising a Holder Optional Redemption during the pendency of the term of such waiver. Although we have retained the right to waive the Series M4 Shares Clawback and Series M5 Shares Clawback in the manner described above, we are not required to establish any such waivers and we may never establish any such waivers. Subject to certain limitations, each share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock may be converted at our option (the “Issuer Optional Conversion”). We will settle any Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the 5-day VWAP, subject to our ability to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value if the 5-day VWAP represents a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock. For the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, “IOC Settlement Amount” means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for conversion. In connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value. If we do not have or obtain any required stockholder approval under the 1940 Act to sell our common stock below net asset value and the 5-day VWAP is at a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock, we will settle any conversions in connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the NAV per share of common stock at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date of conversion. We will not pay any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount from an Issuer Optional Conversion in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the Redemption Eligibility Date. Beginning on the Redemption Eligibility Date, we may elect to settle any Issuer Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. In the event that we exercise an Issuer Optional Conversion with respect to any shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, the holder of such 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock may instead elect a Holder Optional Conversion with respect to such 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock provided that the date of conversion for such Holder Optional Conversion would occur prior to the date of conversion for an Issuer Optional Conversion. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have an Issuer Optional Conversion feature. The Company actively manages its offerings of preferred stock and, although it may or may not be presently offering a particular series of its preferred stock, the Company may determine to issue any of its authorized series of preferred stock (and, in connection therewith, to relaunch the offering of any particular series, if previously terminated) based on its assessment of market conditions, demand, and appropriate cost of capital in light of the foregoing and the overall construction of its portfolio and capital structure. On July 12, 2021, we entered into an underwriting agreement by and among us, Prospect Capital Management L.P., Prospect Administration LLC, and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC, as representatives of the underwriters, relating to the offer and sale of 6,000,000 shares, or $150,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our 5.35% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock” or “5.35% Preferred Stock”), at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock solely to cover over-allotments. The offer settled on July 19, 2021, and no additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to the option. In connection with such offering, on July 15, 2021, we filed Articles Supplementary with SDAT, 118 reclassifying and designating 6,900,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of Series A Preferred Stock. On May 8, 2026, we entered into an equity distribution agreement by and among us, Prospect Capital Management L.P., Prospect Administration LLC, and A.G.P. / Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”), with AGP as sales agent, relating to the offer and sale, by means of an at-the-market (“ATM”) offering, of up to 16,000,000 shares, or $400,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock ATM Program”). In connection with such offering, on May 8, 2026, we filed Articles Supplementary with SDAT, reclassifying and designating 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we issued and sold $1,642 aggregate liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock under the Series A Preferred Stock ATM Program, for net proceeds of $1,098, after commissions, discounts, and offering costs. As of June 30, 2026, there were 5,316,849 shares, or $132,921 aggregate liquidation preference, of the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. Each series of 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock, 7.50% Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock ranks (with respect to the payment of dividends and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) (a) senior to our common stock, (b) on parity with each other series of our preferred stock, and (c) junior to our existing and future secured and unsecured indebtedness. See Note 8. Fair Value and Maturity of Debt Outstanding for further discussion on our senior securities. We may from time to time seek to purchase and cancel our outstanding preferred stock through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved may be material. Any such purchases or exchanges of preferred stock would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. On June 16, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1.5 million shares our Series A Preferred Stock and further on October 11, 2023, authorized any and all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock to be repurchased. The manner, price, volume and timing of preferred share repurchases are subject to a variety of factors, including market conditions and applicable SEC rules. Each share of preferred stock converted into shares of common stock, redeemed, exchanged or acquired by the Company is canceled and retired and is not reissued, and is returned to the status of authorized but unissued common stock. During the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we did not repurchase shares of Series A Preferred Stock. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we exchanged an aggregate of 44,894 Series M1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 44,894 newly-issued Series M5 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we exchanged an aggregate of 59,132 Series M3 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 59,132 newly-issued Series M5 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. During the year ended June 30, 2025, we exchanged an aggregate of 195,938 Series M1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 10,842, 142,054, and 43,040 newly-issued Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, and Series M5 Preferred Stock respectively, pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. During the year ended June 30, 2025, we exchanged an aggregate of 294,040 Series M3 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 266,878 and 27,160 newly-issued Series M4 Preferred Stock and newly-issued Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, and Series M5 Preferred Stock issued in the exchanges were issued in each case to an existing security holder of the Company exclusively in exchange for such holder’s securities. No commission or other remuneration was paid or given for soliciting the exchange. Stockholders who exchange Series M1 Preferred Stock for Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock for Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock will receive unpaid dividends on their Series M1 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock accrued to, but not including, the Exchange Exercise Date, plus any fractional amount of a Series M1 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock exchanged multiplied by $25.00 in cash. Upon settlement, the carrying amount (including any premiums or discounts and a proportional amount of any issuance costs) of the Series M1 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock are reclassified to Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, or Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, with no gain or loss recognized. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, at any time after the close of business on July 19, 2026 (any such date, an “Optional Redemption Date”), at our sole option, we may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in whole or, from time to time, in part, out of funds legally available for such redemption, at a price per share equal to the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption. We may also redeem the Series A 119 Preferred Stock at any time, in whole or, from time to time, in part, including prior to the Optional Redemption Date, pro rata, based on liquidation preference, with all other series of our then outstanding preferred stock, in the event that our Board of Directors determines to redeem any series of our preferred stock, in whole or, from time to time, in part, because such redemption is deemed necessary by our Board of Directors to comply with the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act or for us to maintain RIC status. In the event of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below), we may, at our option, exercise our special optional redemption right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred by paying the liquidation preference, plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the date fixed for such redemption. To the extent that we exercise our optional redemption right or our special optional redemption right relating to the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not be permitted to exercise the conversion right described below in respect of their shares called for redemption. Except to the extent that we have elected to exercise our optional redemption right or our special optional redemption right by providing notice of redemption prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date (as defined below), upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to convert some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of our shares of common stock per Series A Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the lesser of: •the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the sum of the Liquidation Preference per share plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion Date is after a Record Date for a Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment and prior to the corresponding Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividends will be included in this sum) by (ii) the Common Stock Price (as defined below); and •6.03865, subject to certain adjustments, subject, in each case, to provisions for the receipt of alternative consideration upon conversion as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If we have provided or provide a redemption notice with respect to some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock, holders of any Series A Preferred Stock that we have called for redemption will not be permitted to exercise their Change of Control Conversion Right in respect of any of their Series A Preferred Stock that have been called for redemption, and any Series A Preferred Stock subsequently called for redemption that have been tendered for conversion will be redeemed on the applicable date of redemption instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date. For purposes of the foregoing discussion of a redemption upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the following definitions are applicable: “Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of any of the following: •the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation and other than an Excluded Transaction) in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Controlled Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than to any Permitted Holders); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a pledge of assets pursuant to any of our secured debt instruments or the secured debt instruments of our Controlled Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be any such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or disposition; or •the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation and other than an Excluded Transaction) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than any Permitted Holders) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our outstanding Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consummation of any of the transactions referred to in the bullet points above will not be deemed a Change of Control Triggering Event if we or the acquiring or surviving consolidated entity has or continues to have a class of common securities (or ADRs representing such securities) listed on the NYSE, the NYSE American or NASDAQ, or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE American or NASDAQ, or is otherwise listed or quoted on a national securities exchange. The “Change of Control Conversion Date” is the date the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are to be converted, which will be a business day selected by us that is no fewer than 20 days nor more than 35 days after the date on which we provide the notice described above to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock. 120 The “Common Stock Price” will be (i) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control Triggering Event by the holders of our common stock is solely cash, the amount of cash consideration per share of our common stock or (ii) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control Triggering Event by holders of our common stock is other than solely cash (x) the average of the closing sale prices per share of our common stock (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of the closing bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average closing bid and the average closing ask prices) for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control Triggering Event as reported on the principal U.S. securities exchange on which our common stock is then traded, or (y) the average of the last quoted bid prices for our common stock in the over-the-counter market as reported by OTC Markets Group Inc. or similar organization for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control Triggering Event, if our common stock is not then listed for trading on a U.S. securities exchange. “Controlled Subsidiary” means any of our subsidiaries, 50% or more of the outstanding equity interests of which are owned by us and our direct or indirect subsidiaries and of which we possess, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies, whether through the ownership of voting equity interests, by agreement or otherwise. “Excluded Transaction” means (i) any transaction that does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of all or substantially all of the outstanding shares of our Voting Stock; (ii) any changes resulting from a subdivision or combination or a change solely in par value; (iii) any transaction where the shares of our Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) immediately after giving effect to such transaction; (iv) any transaction if (A) we become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (B)(1) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of our Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (2) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company; or (v) any transaction primarily for the purpose of changing our jurisdiction of incorporation or form of organization. “Permitted Holders” means (i) us, (ii) one or more of our Controlled Subsidiaries and (iii) Prospect Capital Management or any affiliate of Prospect Capital Management that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction located in the United States of America and in the business of managing or advising clients. “Voting Stocks” as applied to stock of any person, means shares, interests, participations or other equivalents in the equity interest (however designated) in such person having ordinary voting power for the election of the directors (or the equivalent) of such person, other than shares, interests, participations or other equivalents having such power only by reason of the occurrence of a contingency. Except as provided above in connection with a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities or property. For so long as the Series A Preferred Stock, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, or 7.50% Preferred Stock are outstanding, we will not exercise any option we have to convert any other series of our outstanding preferred stock to common stock, including the Issuer Optional Conversion, or any other security ranking junior to such preferred stock. As a result, if dividends on the Preferred Stock have accumulated and been unpaid for a period of two years, a possibility of redemption outside of the Company’s control exists and, in accordance with ASC 480, we have presented our 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, and Series A Preferred Stock within temporary equity on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. The Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are redeemable at the election of the holder at any time; therefore, is probable of redemption outside of the Company’s control. As a result, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are classified within temporary equity on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and are accreted to redemption value upon issuance. Accretion to redemption value is treated as an adjustment to net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations applicable to common stockholders on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. We determined the estimated value as of June 30, 2026 of our 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock, and 7.50% Preferred Stock was a $25.00 stated value per share. We engaged a third-party valuation service to assist in our determination based on the calculation resulting from the total equity on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2026 (the “Form 10-K”), which was prepared in 121 accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, adjusted for the fair value of our investments (i.e. from our Consolidated Schedule of Investments) and total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our Preferred Stock outstanding. Based on this methodology and because the result from the calculation above is greater than the $25.00 per share stated value of our 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock, and 7.50% Preferred Stock, the estimated value of our 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock, and 7.50% Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2026 is $25.00 per share. Common Stock Our common stockholders’ equity accounts as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 reflect cumulative shares issued, net of shares previously repurchased, as of those respective dates. Our common stock has been issued through public offerings, a registered direct offering, the exercise of over-allotment options on the part of the underwriters, our common stock dividend reinvestment plan in connection with the acquisition of certain controlled portfolio companies and in connection with our 5.50% and 6.50% Preferred Stock Holder Optional Conversion and Optional Redemptions Following Death of a Holder. When our common stock is issued, the related offering expenses have been charged against paid-in capital in excess of par. All underwriting fees and offering expenses were borne by us. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under the Repurchase Program for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the Repurchase Program is $65,860. On July 7, 2026, at a special meeting of stockholders, our stockholders authorized us to sell shares of our common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below our net asset value per share at the time of sale in one or more offerings, subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of its outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale). As of June 30, 2026, we have reserved 612,825,656 shares of our common stock for issuance upon conversion of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock and 89,165,178 shares of our common stock for issuance to common stock holders pursuant to our common stock dividend reinvestment and direct stock purchase plan. 122 Recent Developments On August 20, 2026, we announced the declaration of monthly dividends for our for 7.50% Preferred Stock holders of record on the following dates based on an annual dividend rate equal to 7.50% of the stated value of $25.00 per share as set forth in the Articles Supplementary for the Preferred Stock, from the date of issuance or, if later from the most recent dividend payment date (the first business day of the month, with no additional dividend accruing in November as a result), as follows: Monthly Cash 7.50% Preferred Shareholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Monthly Amount ($ per share), before pro ration for partial periods September 2026 9/21/2026 10/1/2026 $0.156250 October 2026 10/21/2026 11/2/2026 $0.156250 November 2026 11/18/2026 12/1/2026 $0.156250 On August 20, 2026, we announced the declaration of monthly dividends for our Floating Rate Preferred Stock for holders of record on the following dates based on an annualized rate equal to 6.50% of the stated value of $25.00 per share as set forth in the Articles Supplementary for the Preferred Stock, from the date of issuance or, if later from the most recent dividend payment date (the first business day of the month, with no additional dividend accruing in November as a result), authorized on August 19, 2026, as follows: Monthly Cash Floating Rate Preferred Shareholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Monthly Amount ($ per share), before pro ration for partial periods September 2026 9/21/2026 10/1/2026 $0.135417 October 2026 10/21/2026 11/2/2026 $0.135417 November 2026 11/18/2026 12/1/2026 $0.135417 On August 20, 2026, we announced the declaration of monthly dividends for our 5.50% Preferred Stock for holders of record on the following dates based on an annual dividend rate equal to 5.50% of the stated value of $25.00 per share as set forth in the Articles Supplementary for the Preferred Stock, from the date of issuance or, if later from the most recent dividend payment date (the first business day of the month, with no additional dividend accruing in November as a result), as follows: Monthly Cash 5.50% Preferred Shareholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Monthly Amount ($ per share), before pro ration for partial periods September 2026 9/21/2026 10/1/2026 $0.114583 October 2026 10/21/2026 11/2/2026 $0.114583 November 2026 11/18/2026 12/1/2026 $0.114583 On August 20, 2026, we announced the declaration of monthly dividends for our 6.50% Preferred Stock for holders of record on the following dates based on an annual dividend rate equal to 6.50% of the stated value of $25.00 per share as set forth in the Articles Supplementary for the Preferred Stock, from the date of issuance or, if later from the most recent dividend payment date (the first business day of the month, with no additional dividend accruing in November as a result), as follows: Monthly Cash 6.50% Preferred Shareholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Monthly Amount ($ per share), before pro ration for partial periods September 2026 9/21/2026 10/1/2026 $0.135417 October 2026 10/21/2026 11/2/2026 $0.135417 November 2026 11/18/2026 12/1/2026 $0.135417 123 On August 20, 2026, we announced the declaration of quarterly dividends for our 5.35% Preferred Stock for holders of record on the following dates based on an annual dividend rate equal to 5.35% of the stated value of $25.00 per share as set forth in the Articles Supplementary for the 5.35% Preferred Stock, from the date of issuance or, if later from the most recent dividend payment date (the first business day of the month, with no additional dividend accruing in November as a result), as follows: Quarterly Cash 5.35% Preferred Shareholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Amount ($ per share) August 2026 - October 2026 10/21/2026 11/2/2026 $0.334375 On August 20, 2026, we announced the declaration of monthly dividends on our common stock as follows: Monthly Cash Common Stockholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Amount ($ per share) September 2026 9/28/2026 10/21/2026 $0.0350 October 2026 10/28/2026 11/18/2026 $0.0350 Monthly Cash Common Stockholder Distribution Record Date Payment Date Amount ($ per share) September 2026 9/28/2026 10/21/2026 $0.0350 October 2026 10/28/2026 11/18/2026 $0.0350 On July 1, 2026, we sold our 94.99% equity interests in Valley Electric for total consideration of $280,779, including fees and escrowed amounts.

Critical Accounting Estimates We prepare our Financial Statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In applying many of these accounting principles, we make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ materially. These estimates, however, are subjective and subject to change, and actual results may differ materially from our current estimates due to the inherent nature of these estimates. Our critical accounting estimates, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are described below. The critical accounting estimates should be read in conjunction with our risk factors as disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors.” See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for more information on how fair value of our investment portfolio is determined, and Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements for information about the inputs and assumptions used to measure fair value of our investment portfolio. Fair Value of Financial Instruments To value our investments, we follow the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in conformity with GAAP, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted. 124 ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy: •Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date. •Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices, including valuations derived from observable market data such as interest rate curves, forward curves, foreign exchange rates, and credit spreads. •Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. All of our investments carried at fair value are classified as Level 2 or Level 3 as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, with a significant portion of our investments classified as Level 3. Investments We determine the fair value of our investments on a quarterly basis, with changes in fair value reflected as a net change in unrealized gains (losses) from investments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company applies the SEC’s Rule 2a-5 in determining fair value of its investments. Rule 2a-5 establishes a consistent, principles-based framework for boards of directors to use in creating their own specific processes in order to determine fair values in good faith. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, management and the independent valuation firm look at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. Certain derivative instruments are valued using pricing information obtained from third-party pricing services, including IHS Markit. These valuations are based on prevailing market data as of the measurement date and are derived using models that apply well-recognized financial principles. Significant inputs to the valuation models include observable market data such as interest rate curves, forward curves, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates, volatilities, and other market-corroborated inputs. Management and the independent valuation firm evaluate the methodologies and inputs to assess whether the resulting values are representative of fair value. In determining the range of values for debt and equity instruments where market quotations are not readily available, we perform a multiple step valuation process with our investment professionals alongside our independent valuation firms. The independent valuation firms prepare valuations for each investment which are presented by the independent valuation firms to the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. The Audit Committee makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors of the value for each investment and the Board of Directors approves the values with the input of the Investment Adviser. Management and the independent valuation firms may consider various factors in determining the fair value of our investments. One prominent factor is the enterprise value of a portfolio company determined by applying a market approach such as using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples, net income and/or book value multiples for similar guideline public companies and/or similar recent investment transactions and/or an income approach, such as the discounted cash flow technique. If relevant, management and the independent valuation firms will consider the pricing indicated by external events such as a purchase or sale transaction to corroborate the valuation. Changes in market yields, discount rates, capitalization rates or EBITDA multiples, each in isolation, may change the fair value measurement of certain of our investments. Generally, an increase in market yields, discount rates or capitalization rates, or a decrease in EBITDA (or other) multiples may result in a decrease in the fair value measurement of certain of our investments. Our investments that are classified as Level 3 are primarily valued utilizing a discounted cash flow, enterprise value (“EV”) waterfall, asset recovery analysis, deficiency claims analysis, or an option pricing model. The discounted cash flow converts future cash flows or earnings to a range of fair values from which a single estimate may be derived utilizing an appropriate discount rate. The fair value measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. Under the EV waterfall, the EV of a portfolio company is first determined and allocated over the portfolio company’s securities in order of their preference relative to one another (i.e., “waterfall” allocation). To determine the EV, we typically use a market (multiples) valuation approach that considers relevant and applicable market trading data of guideline public companies, transaction metrics from precedent merger and acquisitions transactions, and/or a discounted cash flow. The asset recovery analysis is intended to approximate the net recovery value of an investment based on, among other things, 125 assumptions regarding liquidation proceeds based on a hypothetical liquidation of a portfolio company’s assets. The deficiency claim analysis approximates the potential recoveries from claims after liquidation. The option pricing model considers the optionality of certain equity positions when there is a limitation to exit or effectuate a sale. The model utilizes the underlying price, the strike or exercise price, interest rate, volatility, and time to expiration date. In determining the range of values for our investments in CLOs, the independent valuation firm uses a discounted multi-path cash flow model. Various risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows for the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market and certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. As of June 30, 2026, $2,969,844, $3,304,228, $35,496, $19,493, and $12,264 of our total investments were valued using the discounted cash flow, enterprise value waterfall, option pricing model, asset recovery analysis, and deficiency claims analysis, respectively, compared to $3,623,701, $2,909,659, $27,014, $24,577, and $6,500, respectively, as of June 30, 2025. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the currently assigned valuations. Recent Accounting Pronouncements For discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 within the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and equity price risk. Uncertainty with respect to the economic effects of heightened interest rates in response to inflation, ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Middle East and the ongoing geopolitical uncertainty has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets, and the effects of this volatility could materially impact our market risks, including those listed below. Concerning these risks and their potential impact on our business and our operating results, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Relating to our Business.” Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates impacting some of the loans in our portfolio which have floating interest rates. Additionally, because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income. See Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, “Risks Relating to Our Business—Changes in interest rates may affect our cost of capital and net investment income.” Our debt investments may be based on floating rates or fixed rates. For our floating rate loans the rates are determined from the SOFR, EURO Interbank Offer Rate, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate. The floating interest rate loans may be subject to a SOFR floor. Our loans typically have durations of one, three or six months after which they reset to current market interest rates. As of June 30, 2026, 75.96% of the interest earning investments in our portfolio, at fair value, bore interest at floating rates. We also have a revolving credit facility that is based on floating SOFR rates. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility is one-month SOFR plus 205 basis points with no minimum SOFR floor and there is $562,328 outstanding as of June 30, 2026. Dividends for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock are equal to one-month Term SOFR (which will reset upon each dividend declaration by the Board of Directors) plus 2.00%, subject to a minimum and maximum annualized dividend rate of 6.50% and 8.00%, respectively. There are 8,784,030 shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2026. See Note 9. Equity Offerings, Offering Expenses, and Distributions for further discussion on our Floating Rate Preferred Stock. The Public Notes, Prospect Capital InterNotes® and remaining Preferred Stock bear interest at fixed rates. 126 The following table shows the approximate annual impact on net investment income of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate flows for floating rate instruments, excluding our investments in Subordinated Structured Notes) to our loan portfolio and outstanding debt as of June 30, 2026, assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure: Basis Point Change (in thousands) Increase (Decrease) in Interest Income (Increase) Decrease in Interest Expense Increase (Decrease) in Net Investment Income(1) Up 300 basis points $ 89,814 $ 16,870 $ 72,944 Up 200 basis points 59,790 11,247 48,543 Up 100 basis points 30,370 5,623 24,747 Down 100 basis points (26,008) (5,623) (20,385) Down 200 basis points (46,336) (11,247) (35,089) Down 300 basis points (61,867) (16,870) (44,997) (1) Excludes the impact of income incentive fee and does not reflect dividends paid on preferred stock, including the preferred stock that pay dividends based on a floating rate, since those dividends do not reduce net investment income on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 13 in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on income incentive fees.. As of June 30, 2026, the one and three month SOFR were 3.65% and 3.73%, respectively. We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of higher interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we did not engage in hedging activities. Foreign Currency Risk We are exposed to foreign currency risk primarily as a result of our 5.50% 2030 Notes, which are non-U.S. Dollar denominated and for which principal at maturity and interest are payable in Israeli Shekel. Changes in the Israeli Shekels/U.S. Dollar exchange rate may increase or decrease the U.S. Dollar amount of our contractual cash outflows and the reported U.S. Dollar carrying amount of the 5.50% 2030 Notes. To manage this exposure, we entered into foreign currency forward exchange contracts. We have designated a series of the forward contracts as cash flow hedges of our forecasted interest payments and one forward contract as a fair value hedge of the foreign currency risk associated with the aggregate principal due on the 5.50% 2030 Notes. These derivatives are entered into for risk management purposes and not for trading. As of June 30, 2026, the potential loss in fair value of foreign currency forward contracts resulting from a 3% weakening of the Israeli Shekel relative to the U.S. Dollar would be approximately $6,473. This change would be substantially offset by a corresponding change in the U.S. Dollar value of the principal and interest obligations under the 5.50% 2030 Notes upon remeasurement at the spot rate in effect at the balance sheet date. 127

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations, changes in net assets and temporary equity, cash flows, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated August 20, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of investments owned as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, by correspondence with the custodian, loan agents, and borrowers; when replies were not received, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Fair Valuation of Level 3 Investments - Refer to Notes 2 and 3 to the Financial Statements Critical Audit Matter Description The Company held certain portfolio investments, classified as Level 3 investments, including First and Second Lien debt, unsecured debt and equity. The Company's determination of fair value for these Level 3 investments involved subjective judgments and estimates including the selection of valuation methodologies and unobservable inputs. 129 We identified the valuation of Level 3 investments as a critical audit matter given the significant judgments made by the Company to estimate the fair value. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and extensive audit effort, including the need to involve fair value specialists who possess significant valuation experience, to evaluate the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies and the significant unobservable inputs used by the Company in the determination of fair value. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit Our audit procedures related to the valuation of Level 3 investments included the following, among others: •We tested the design, implementation, and operating effectiveness of the Company's controls over the valuation of Level 3 investments, including those over the selection of valuation methodologies and development of unobservable inputs. •We evaluated the appropriateness of the valuation methodologies and the reasonableness of the significant unobservable inputs. For a selection of Level 3 investments, we utilized the assistance of our fair value specialists to perform our audit procedures. •With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we developed independent fair value estimates and compared our estimates to the Company's concluded values for a selection of Level 3 investments. •We evaluated management's ability to reasonably estimate fair value by comparing management's historical estimates of fair value to subsequent transactions, taking into account changes in market or investment specific conditions, where applicable. /s/ DELOITTE &

The securities in which Prospect has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act. (2)Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. Unless otherwise indicated by endnote 42 below, all of our investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. In accordance with ASC 820, such investments are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Notes 2 and 3 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion. (3)Security, or a portion thereof, is held by Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), our wholly owned subsidiary and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and is pledged as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility and such security is not available as collateral to our general creditors (see Note 4). The fair value of the investments held by PCF as of June 30, 2026 was $2,155,016, representing 34.0% of our total investments. (4)Medical Solutions Holdings, Inc. and Medical Solutions, LLC are joint borrowers on the Second Lien Term Loan. (5)This investment is in the equity class of the collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) security, which is referred to as “Subordinated Structured Note,” or “SSN”. The SSN investments are entitled to recurring distributions which are generally equal to the excess cash flow generated from the underlying investments after payment of the contractual payments to debt holders and fund expenses. The current estimated yield, calculated using amortized cost, is based on the current projections of this excess cash flow taking into account assumptions which have been made regarding expected prepayments, losses and future reinvestment rates. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and adjusted. Ultimately, the actual yield may be higher or lower than the estimated yield if actual results differ from those used for the assumptions. (6)Discovery Point Retreat, LLC, Discovery MSO LLC, Eating Disorder Solutions of Texas LLC, Discovery Point Retreat Waxahachie, LLC are joint borrowers on the First Lien Term Loan. (7)Investment on non-accrual status as of the reporting date (see Note 2). (8)Certain variable rate securities in our portfolio bear interest at a rate determined by a publicly disclosed base rate plus a basis point spread. The 1-Month Secured Overnight Financing Rate or “1M SOFR”, was 3.65% as of June 30, 2026. The 3-Month Secured Overnight Financing Rate or “3M SOFR”, was 3.73% as of June 30, 2026. The impact of a Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) credit spread adjustment, if applicable, is included within the stated all-in interest rate. (9)PeopleConnect Holdings, Inc. and Pubrec Holdings, Inc. are joint borrowers. (10)The consolidated revenue interest is equal to the lesser of (i) 2.0% of consolidated revenue for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the prior fiscal quarter (or portion thereof) and (ii) 25% of the amount of interest accrued on the Notes at the cash interest rate for such fiscal quarter (or portion thereof). (11)Represents overriding royalty interests or revenue interests held which receive payments at the stated rates based upon the underlying operations. (12)Investment has been designated as an investment not “qualifying” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). Under the 1940 Act, we may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of our total assets as calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements. As of June 30, 2026, our qualifying assets, as a percentage of total assets, stood at 81.94%. We monitor the status of these assets on an ongoing basis. (13)Undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans to our portfolio companies incur commitment and unused fees ranging from 0.00% to 3.00%. As of June 30, 2026, $64,611 of undrawn revolver and delayed draw term loan commitments to our portfolio companies, of which $52,446 are considered at the Company’s sole discretion. (14)Represents non-income producing security that has not paid a dividend or other income in the year preceding the reporting date. (15)The effective yield has been estimated to be 0% as expected future cash flows are anticipated to not be sufficient to repay the investment at cost. If the expected investment proceeds increase, there is a potential for future investment income from the See notes to consolidated financial statements. 151 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 2026 (Continued) (in thousands, except share data) Endnote Explanations as of June 30, 2026 investment. Distributions, once received, will be recognized as return of capital, and when called, any remaining unamortized investment costs will be written off if the actual distributions are less than the amortized investment cost.

First Lien Term Loan B 5/1/2023 19,000 (40)Since Prospect’s initial common equity investment in NPRC on December 31, 2013, we have made numerous additional follow-on investments that have been used to invest in new and existing properties as well as online consumer loans and rated secured structured notes. These follow-on acquisitions are summarized by fiscal year below (excluding effects of return of capital distributions). Details of specific transactions are included in the respective fiscal year Form 10-K filing (refer to endnote 42 for NPRC term loan follow-on investments): Fiscal Year Follow-On Investments (NPRC Common Stock, excluding cost of initial investment) 2014 $ 4,555 2015 68,693 2016 93,857 2017 116,830 2018 137,024 2019 11,582 2020 19,800 2022 15,620 2023 3,600 2024 4,600 2025 — 2026 — (41)On March 31, 2025, Prospect exercised certain rights and remedies under its loan documents to exercise voting rights in respect of the equity of Belnick, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries (“Belnick”), enabling Prospect to control 100% of the voting power of Belnick, and to, among other things, appoint new officers, all of whom are our Investment Adviser’s professionals. As a result, Prospect’s investment in Belnick became classified as a control investment. Effective May 22, 2025, Prospect established 100% ownership of Belnick Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Belnick Delaware”), a wholly owned consolidated holdings company. On May 23, 2025, Belnick Delaware acquired a 100% voting interest in Belnick’s Class P Preferred units, which, together with the voting rights obtained through the proxy over the remaining Class A units, provides Prospect with 100% of the voting interest in Belnick. Belnick Delaware executed a share transfer agreement for the remaining Class A units and effective December 31, 2025, owns 100% of the membership units in Belnick. Belnick is a provider of high-volume, value-oriented furniture and furnishings to a broad range of residential and commercial end markets. (42)This investment represents a Level 2 security in the ASC 820 table as of June 30, 2026. See Notes 2 and 3 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion. (43)Investment provides future right to acquire voting securities not beneficially owned, subject to certain terms and conditions, including prior notice, which if exercised, could result in such investment becoming an affiliate or control investment. See notes to consolidated financial statements. 162 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 2026 (Continued) (in thousands, except share data) Endnote Explanations as of June 30, 2026 (44)The investment represents a unitranche loan with characteristics of a traditional first lien senior secured loan, but which pursuant to an agreement among lenders is divided among unaffiliated lenders into “first out” and “last out” tranches yielding different interest rates, where our investment is the “last out” tranche(s) of such unitranche loan, subject to payment priority in favor of a first out tranche held by an unaffiliated lender; or, the Company has entered into an intercreditor agreement that entitles the Company to the “last out” tranche of the first lien secured loans, whereby the “first out” tranche will receive priority as to the “last out” tranche(s) with respect to payments of principal, interest, and any other amounts due thereunder. Therefore, the Company may receive a higher interest rate than the “first out” lenders and the Consolidated Schedule of Investments above reflects such higher rate, as applicable. (45)Emerge Intermediate, Inc., HD Research, LLC, ERG Buyer, LLC, and ERG Blocker, Inc. are joint borrowers on the First Lien Term Loan. (46)The stated interest rate on the drawn revolver and delayed drawn term loan commitments represents a weighted average interest rate for the funded amounts of the investment. (47)Wellpath Holdings, Inc. (“Wellpath”) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on November 11, 2024. On May 9, 2025 Wellpath Holdings, Inc. consummated a court-approved restructuring pursuant to its Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization. As part of this transaction, our existing First Lien Term Loan was restructured into new debt and equity positions in New WPCC Parent, LLC and our residual Second Lien Senior Secured Term Loan deficiency claims were exchanged for beneficial interests in the Wellpath Holdings, Inc. Liquidation Trust. Our recovery in the Trust is subject to a claim’s reconciliation process and the value of our interest is based on management’s current estimate of expected recovery, using Level 3 unobservable inputs. (48)Prospect owns 100% of the equity of Victor Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Victor Holdings”), a Consolidated Holding Company. During the year ended June 30, 2026, Victor Holdings acquired 100% of the equity interest in VTI Acquisition, Inc. (“VTI”) and 99.90% of the equity interest in Victor Technology, LLC (“Victor Technology”), with VTI owning the remaining 0.1%. As a result, Prospect’s investment in Victory Technology is classified as a control investment as of June 30, 2026. Victor Technology is a manufacturer and distributor of office supplies, including calculators, standing desks, organizers and paperclips. (49)Investments may have a portion, or all, of their income received from Paid-in-Kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK interest income and cumulative dividend income represent income not paid currently in cash. The difference between the All-in Rate and PIK Rate represents the cash rate as of June 30, 2026. (50)The Prospect owns 100% of the equity of R-V Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“R-V Holdings”), a Consolidated Holding Company. R-V Holdings owns 90.28% of the fully-diluted equity of R-V Industries, Inc. (51)First Brands is progressing towards an exit from bankruptcy via a liquidating Chapter 11 plan. Given case complexities, the lenders have executed a forbearance into a Forbearance Agreement (approved by the Bankruptcy Court via Stipulation and Agreed Order entered July 29, 2026) instead of a maturity extension. Additionally, the disclosed interest for First Lien Term Loan A and First Lien Term Loan B represents the default rate, which became effective June 29, 2026 per the Forbearance Agreement.

The securities in which Prospect has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act. (2)Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Directors. Unless otherwise indicated by endnote 42 below, all of our investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. In accordance with ASC 820, such investments are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Notes 2 and 3 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion. (3)Security, or a portion thereof, is held by Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), our wholly owned subsidiary and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and is pledged as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility and such security is not available as collateral to our general creditors (see Note 4). The fair value of the investments held by PCF at June 30, 2025 was $2,520,620, representing 37.8% of our total investments. (4)Medical Solutions Holdings, Inc. and Medical Solutions, LLC are joint borrowers on the Second Lien Term Loan. (5)This investment is in the equity class of the collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) security, which is referred to as “Subordinated Structured Note,” or “SSN”. The SSN investments are entitled to recurring distributions which are generally equal to the excess cash flow generated from the underlying investments after payment of the contractual payments to debt holders and fund expenses. The current estimated yield, calculated using amortized cost, is based on the current projections of this excess cash flow taking into account assumptions which have been made regarding expected prepayments, losses and future reinvestment rates. These assumptions are periodically reviewed and adjusted. Ultimately, the actual yield may be higher or lower than the estimated yield if actual results differ from those used for the assumptions. (6)Discovery Point Retreat, LLC, Discovery MSO LLC, Eating Disorder Solutions of Texas LLC, Discovery Point Retreat Waxahachie, LLC are joint borrowers on the First Lien Term Loan. (7)Investment on non-accrual status as of the reporting date (see Note 2). (8)Certain variable rate securities in our portfolio bear interest at a rate determined by a publicly disclosed base rate plus a basis point spread. The 1-Month Secured Overnight Financing Rate or “1M SOFR”, was 4.32% as of June 30, 2025. The 3-Month Secured Overnight Financing Rate or “3M SOFR”, was 4.29% as of June 30, 2025. The PRIME Rate or “PRIME” was 7.50% as of June 30, 2025. The impact of a SOFR credit spread adjustment, if applicable, is included within the stated all-in interest rate. (9)PeopleConnect Holdings, Inc. and Pubrec Holdings, Inc. are joint borrowers. (10)The consolidated revenue interest is equal to the lesser of (i) 2.0% of consolidated revenue for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the prior fiscal quarter (or portion thereof) and (ii) 25% of the amount of interest accrued on the Notes at the cash interest rate for such fiscal quarter (or portion thereof). (11)Represents overriding royalty interests or revenue interests held which receive payments at the stated rates based upon the underlying operations. (12)Investment has been designated as an investment not “qualifying” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). Under the 1940 Act, we may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time such acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of our total assets as calculated in accordance with regulatory requirements. As of June 30, 2025, our qualifying assets, as a percentage of total assets, stood at 85.27%. We monitor the status of these assets on an ongoing basis. (13)Undrawn committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans to our portfolio companies incur commitment and unused fees ranging from 0.00% to 5.00%. As of June 30, 2025, $40,707 of undrawn revolver and delayed draw term loan commitments to our portfolio companies, of which $15,900 are considered at the Company’s sole discretion. (14)Represents non-income producing security that has not paid a dividend or other income in the year preceding the reporting date. See notes to consolidated financial statements. 174 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 2025 (Continued) (in thousands, except share data) Endnote Explanations as of June 30, 2025 (Continued) (15)The effective yield has been estimated to be 0% as expected future cash flows are anticipated to not be sufficient to repay the investment at cost. If the expected investment proceeds increase, there is a potential for future investment income from the investment. Distributions, once received, will be recognized as return of capital, and when called, any remaining unamortized investment costs will be written off if the actual distributions are less than the amortized investment cost. To the extent that the cost basis of the SSN is fully recovered, any future distributions will be recorded as realized gains.

Subordinated Structured Note 3/29/2018 3,943 (40)Since Prospect’s initial common equity investment in NPRC on December 31, 2013, we have made numerous additional follow-on investments that have been used to invest in new and existing properties as well as online consumer loans and rated secured structured notes. These follow-on acquisitions are summarized by fiscal year below (excluding effects of return of capital distributions). Details of specific transactions are included in the respective fiscal year Form 10-K filing (refer to endnote 42 for NPRC term loan follow-on investments): Fiscal Year Follow-On Investments (NPRC Common Stock, excluding cost of initial investment) 2014 $ 4,555 2015 68,693 2016 93,857 2017 116,830 2018 137,024 2019 11,582 2020 19,800 2022 15,620 2023 3,600 2024 4,600 2025 — (41)On March 31, 2025, Prospect exercised certain rights and remedies under its loan documents to exercise voting rights in respect of the equity of Belnick, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries (“Belnick”) to, among other things, appoint new officers, all of whom are our Investment Adviser’s professionals. As a result, Prospect’s investment in Belnick is classified as a control investment. Effective May 22, 2025, Prospect established 100% ownership of Belnick Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Belnick Delaware”), a wholly owned consolidated holdings company. On May 23, 2025, Belnick Delaware acquired a 100% voting interest in Belnick’s Class P Preferred units, which equates to a 99.01% fully diluted beneficial interest in Belnick as of June 30, 2025. Belnick is a provider of high-volume, value-oriented furniture and furnishings to a broad range of residential and commercial end markets. (42)This investment represents a Level 2 security in the ASC 820 table as of June 30, 2025. See Notes 2 and 3 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion. (43)As of June 30, 2025, certain industries classifications have been revised compared to June 30, 2024 to align with updated industry structures. (44)The investment represents a unitranche loan with characteristics of a traditional first lien senior secured loan, but which pursuant to an agreement among lenders is divided among unaffiliated lenders into “first out” and “last out” tranches yielding different interest rates, where our investment is the “last out” tranche(s) of such unitranche loan, subject to payment priority in favor of a first out tranche held by an unaffiliated lender; or, the Company has entered into an intercreditor agreement that entitles the Company to the “last out” tranche of the first lien secured loans, whereby the “first out” tranche will receive priority as to the “last out” tranche(s) with respect to payments of principal, interest, and any other amounts due thereunder. Therefore, the Company may receive a higher interest rate than the “first out” lenders and the Consolidated Schedule of Investments above reflects such higher rate, as applicable. (45)Emerge Intermediate, Inc., HD Research, LLC, ERG Buyer, LLC, and ERG Blocker, Inc. are joint borrowers on the First Lien Term Loan. See notes to consolidated financial statements. 185 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS AS OF JUNE 30, 2025 (Continued) (in thousands, except share data) Endnote Explanations as of June 30, 2025 (Continued) (46)The stated interest rate on the drawn revolver and delayed drawn term loan commitments represents a weighted average interest rate for the funded amounts of the investment. (47)Wellpath Holdings, Inc. (“Wellpath”) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on November 11, 2024. On May 9, 2025 Wellpath Holdings, Inc. consummated a court-approved restructuring pursuant to its Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization. As part of this transaction, our existing First Lien Term Loan was restructured into new debt and equity positions in New WPCC Parent, LLC and our residual Second Lien Senior Secured Term Loan deficiency claims were exchanged for beneficial interests in the Wellpath Holdings, Inc. Liquidation Trust. Our recovery in the Trust is subject to a claim’s reconciliation process and the value of our interest is based on management’s current estimate of expected recovery, using Level 3 unobservable inputs. (48)Investment provides future right to acquire voting securities not beneficially owned, subject to certain terms and conditions, including prior notice, which if exercised, could result in such investment becoming an affiliate or control investment. See notes to consolidated financial statements. 186 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 1. Organization In this report, the terms “Prospect”, “the Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” mean Prospect Capital Corporation and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise. Prospect is a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in middle market privately-held companies. We are a closed-end investment company incorporated in Maryland. We have elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). As a BDC, we have elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). We were organized on April 13, 2004, and were funded in an initial public offering completed on July 27, 2004. On May 15, 2007, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary Prospect Capital Funding LLC (“PCF”), a Delaware limited liability company and a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which holds certain of our portfolio loan investments that are used as collateral for the revolving credit facility at PCF. On September 30, 2014, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary Prospect Yield Corporation, LLC (“PYC”) and effective October 23, 2014, PYC holds a portion of our collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), which we also refer to as subordinated structured notes (“SSNs”). Each of these subsidiaries have been consolidated since operations commenced. We consolidate certain of our wholly owned and substantially wholly owned holding companies formed by us in order to facilitate our investment strategy. The following companies are included in our consolidated financial statements and are collectively referred to as the “Consolidated Holding Companies”: Belnick Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Belnick Delaware”); CP Holdings of Delaware LLC (“CP Holdings”); Credit Central Holdings of Delaware, LLC; Energy Solutions Holdings Inc.; First Tower Holdings of Delaware LLC (“First Tower Delaware”); MITY Holdings of Delaware Inc.; Nationwide Acceptance Holdings LLC; NMMB Holdings, Inc. (“NMMB Holdings”); NPH Property Holdings, LLC (“NPH”); NPH Holdco LLC (“NPH Holdco”); Prospect Opportunity Holdings I, Inc. (“POHI”); R-V Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“R-V Holdings”); SB Forging Company, Inc. (“SB Forging”); STI Holding, Inc.; UTP Holdings Group Inc. (“UTP Holdings”); Valley Electric Holdings I, Inc. (“Valley Holdings I”); Valley Electric Holdings II, Inc. (“Valley Holdings II”); and Victor Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Victor Holdings”). We are externally managed by our investment adviser, Prospect Capital Management L.P. (“Prospect Capital Management” or the “Investment Adviser”). Prospect Administration LLC (“Prospect Administration” or the “Administrator”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser, provides administrative services and facilities necessary for us to operate. Our investment objective is to generate both current income and long-term capital appreciation. We intend to invest primarily in privately owned United States (“U.S.”) middle market companies, in senior and secured first lien loans and, to a lesser extent, second lien loans, as well as equity and equity-linked investments with capital-appreciation potential (such as senior and secured convertible debt, preferred equity, common equity and warrants). Most of our investments will be in private U.S. companies; however, we may also invest to some extent in broadly-traded public companies and non-U.S. companies (subject to compliance with BDC requirements to invest at least 70% of assets in “eligible portfolio companies,” which are generally privately offered securities issued by U.S. private or thinly-traded companies). We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. 187 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K, ASC 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”), and Articles 3, 6, and 12 of Regulation S-X. Under the 1940 Act, ASC 946, and the regulations pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S-X, we are precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or an operating company which provides substantially all of its services to benefit us. Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Prospect, PCF, PYC, and the Consolidated Holding Companies. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations and financial condition as of and for the periods presented. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial results of our non-substantially wholly-owned holding companies and operating portfolio company investments are not consolidated in the financial statements. Any operating companies owned by the Consolidated Holding Companies are not consolidated. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. All cash and restricted cash balances are maintained with high credit quality financial institutions. Cash and restricted cash held at financial institutions, at times, has exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limit. The Company has not incurred any losses on these accounts, and the credit risk exposure is mitigated by the financial strength of the banking institutions where the amounts are held. Restricted cash relates to a contractual requirement for our Revolving Credit Facility to maintain a minimum cash balance in a reserve account. The contractual requirement is based upon our outstanding borrowing on our Revolving Credit Facility. Additionally, as of June 30, 2026, restricted cash may also include collateral posted to cover variation margin that may be restricted until the position is closed out. This balance is required by our custody control agreement to be held in a custody account. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in the presentation of prior consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to conform to the presentation as of and for the year ended June 30, 2026. See Note 12. Income Taxes and Note 16. Financial Highlights. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income, expenses, and gains and losses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, creditworthiness of the issuers of our investment portfolio and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ, and these differences could be material. Investment Classification We are a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. As required by the 1940 Act, we classify our investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are those where there is the ability or power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual possesses a beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the voting securities of an investee company. Under the 1940 Act, “Affiliate Investments” are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist through owning, controlling, or holding with power to vote, 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of another person. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. As a BDC, we must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, our qualifying assets as a percentage of total assets, stood at 81.94% and 85.27%, respectively. 188 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Investment Transactions Investments are recognized when we assume an obligation to acquire a financial instrument and assume the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Specifically, we record all security transactions on a trade date basis. We determine the fair value of our investments on a quarterly basis (as discussed in Investment Valuation below), with changes in fair value reflected as a net change in unrealized gains (losses) from investments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Investments are derecognized when we assume an obligation to sell a financial instrument and forego the risks for gains or losses related to that instrument. Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method. Amounts for investments traded but not yet settled are reported in Due to Broker or Due from Broker, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we have no assets going through foreclosure. Foreign Currency Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. Dollars (USD) on the following basis: i.fair value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period; and ii.purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such investment transactions, income or expenses. We do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in fair values of investments held or disposed of during the period. Such fluctuations are included within the net realized and net change in unrealized gains or losses from investments in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Foreign-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, including our 5.50% 2030 Notes, are remeasured at the spot exchange rate as of the last business day of the period, with the resulting gains and losses recognized in net change in unrealized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions. Foreign-currency-denominated cash proceeds and payments, including interest payments on the 5.50% 2030 Notes, are translated at the exchange rates in effect on the settlement dates and recognized in net realized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions and for interest payment in interest expense. We use foreign currency forward contracts to manage a portion of our exposure to changes in the Israeli Shekel/U.S. Dollar exchange rate associated with principal and interest on the 5.50% 2030 Notes. Certain forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted interest payments and certain forward contracts are designated as fair value hedges of the foreign currency risk in the 5.50% 2030 Notes’ principal. Refer to Note 6. Public Notes for additional information, including the accounting for amounts recognized in earnings and other comprehensive income. Investment Risks Our investments are subject to a variety of risks. Those risks include the following: Market Risk Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by a change in the fair value of the financial instrument. Credit Risk Credit risk represents the risk that we would incur if the counterparties failed to perform pursuant to the terms of their agreements with us. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk represents the possibility that we may not be able to rapidly adjust the size of our investment positions in times of high volatility and financial stress at a reasonable price. 189 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Interest Rate Risk Interest rate risk represents a change in interest rates, which could result in an adverse change in the fair value of an interest-bearing financial instrument. Prepayment Risk Many of our debt investments allow for prepayment of principal without penalty. Downward changes in interest rates may cause prepayments to occur at a faster than expected rate, thereby effectively shortening the maturity of the security and making us less likely to fully earn all of the expected income of that security and reinvesting in a lower yielding instrument. Structured Credit Related Risk CLO investments may be riskier and less transparent to us than direct investments in underlying companies. CLOs typically will have no significant assets other than their underlying senior secured loans. Therefore, payments on CLO investments are and will be payable solely from the cash flows from such senior secured loans. Foreign Currency Investments and debt denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities. Other Risks Political developments, including civil conflicts and war, sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments, natural disasters, public health crises and other events outside the Company’s control can directly or indirectly have a material adverse impact on the Company and our portfolio companies. Investment Valuation As a BDC, and in accordance with the 1940 Act, we fair value our investment portfolio on a quarterly basis, with any unrealized gains and losses reflected in net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. To value our investments, we follow the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in conformity with GAAP, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the fair value of our investments is defined as the price that we would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market in which that investment is transacted. ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, accessible by us at the measurement date. Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices, including valuations derived from observable market data such as interest rate curves, forward curves, foreign exchange rates, and credit spreads. Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. In all cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to each investment. Our Board of Directors has established procedures for the valuation of our investment portfolio. These procedures are detailed below. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations, subject to the quotations meeting sufficient volume and liquidity metrics. 190 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) For most of our investments, market quotations are not available. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or when such market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, due to factors such as volume and frequency of price quotes, our Board of Directors has approved a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below. 1.Each portfolio company or investment is reviewed by our investment professionals with independent valuation firms engaged by our Board of Directors. 2.The independent valuation firms prepare independent valuations for each investment based on their own independent assessments and issue their report. 3.The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors reviews and discusses with the independent valuation firms the valuation reports, and then makes a recommendation to the Board of Directors of the value for each investment. 4.The Board of Directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser, the respective independent valuation firm and the Audit Committee. Our non-CLO investments that are classified as Level 3 are primarily valued utilizing a discounted cash flow, enterprise value (“EV”) waterfall, asset recovery analysis, deficiency claims analysis, or an option pricing model. The discounted cash flow converts future cash flows or earnings to a range of fair values from which a single estimate may be derived utilizing an appropriate discount rate. The fair value measurement is based on the net present value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. Under the EV waterfall, the EV of a portfolio company is first determined and allocated over the portfolio company’s securities in order of their preference relative to one another (i.e., “waterfall” allocation). To determine the EV, we typically use a market (multiples) valuation approach that considers relevant and applicable market trading data of guideline public companies, transaction metrics from precedent merger and acquisitions transactions, and/or a discounted cash flow. The asset recovery analysis is intended to approximate the net recovery value of an investment based on, among other things, assumptions regarding liquidation proceeds based on a hypothetical liquidation of a portfolio company’s assets. The deficiency claim analysis approximates the potential recoveries from claims after liquidation. The option pricing model considers the optionality of certain equity positions when there is a limitation to exit or effectuate a sale. The model utilizes the underlying price, the strike or exercise price, interest rate, volatility, and time to expiration date. In applying these methodologies, additional factors that we consider in valuing our investments may include, as we deem relevant: security covenants, call protection provisions, and information rights; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments; the principal markets in which the portfolio company does business; publicly available financial ratios of peer companies; the principal market; and enterprise values, among other factors. Our investments in CLOs are classified as Level 3 fair value measured securities under ASC 820 and are valued using a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The CLO structures are analyzed to identify the risk exposures and to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations, which is a simulation used to model the probability of different outcomes, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows from the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market as well as certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the multi-path cash flows. We are not responsible for and have no influence over the asset management of the portfolios underlying the CLO investments we hold, as those portfolios are managed by non-affiliated third-party CLO collateral managers. The main risk factors are default risk, prepayment risk, interest rate risk, downgrade risk, and credit spread risk. Convertible Notes Our previously outstanding 6.375% convertible notes due 2025, which matured during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, are referred to as the “2025 Notes” or the “Convertible Notes”. We recorded the Convertible Notes at their contractual amounts and at issuance, we determined that the embedded conversion options in the Convertible Notes are not required to be separately accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Convertible Notes were repaid at maturity on March 3, 2025. See Note 5 for activity recorded during the year ended June 30, 2025. Revenue Recognition Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Original issue discounts and market discounts are capitalized and accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable 191 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) loans using the effective interest method or straight-line, as applicable, and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon a prepayment of a loan, prepayment premiums, original issue discount, or market discounts are recorded as interest income. Loans are placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Unpaid accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are either applied to the cost basis or interest income, depending upon management’s judgment of the collectability of the loan receivable. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and in management’s judgment, is likely to remain current and future principal and interest collections when due are probable. Interest received and applied against cost while a loan is on non-accrual, and payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest capitalized but not recognized while on non-accrual, is recognized prospectively on the effective yield basis through maturity of the loan when placed back on accrual status, to the extent deemed collectible by management. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, approximately 0.7% and 0.3%, respectively, of our total assets at fair value are in non-accrual status. Some of our loans and other investments may have contractual PIK interest or dividends. PIK income computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and reflected as receivable up to the capitalization date. PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or in additional securities. When additional securities are received, they typically have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates as the original securities issued. On these payment dates, we capitalize the accrued interest (reflecting such amounts in the basis as additional securities received). PIK generally becomes due at maturity of the investment or upon the investment being called by the issuer. At the point that we believe PIK is not fully expected to be realized, the PIK investment will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively. We do not reverse previously capitalized PIK interest or dividends. Upon capitalization, PIK is subject to the fair value estimates associated with their related investments. PIK investments on non-accrual status are restored to accrual status if we believe that PIK is expected to be realized. Interest income from investments in Subordinated Structured Notes (typically preferred shares, income notes or subordinated notes of CLO funds) and “equity” class of security of securitized trust is recorded based upon an estimation of an effective yield to expected maturity utilizing assumed cash flows in accordance with ASC 325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets. We monitor the expected cash inflows from our CLO and securitized trust equity investments, including the expected residual payments, and the effective yield is determined and updated periodically. We recognize realized losses for certain CLO equity investments when we determine that a CLO’s expected remaining cash flows do not exceed amortized cost basis. In such situations, the amortized cost basis of the CLO is written down and recognized as a realized loss. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Each distribution received from limited liability company (“LLC”) and limited partnership (“LP”) investments is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, the Company will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs and LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient current or accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits in the LLC or LP prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment. Other income consists of structuring fees, amendment fees, overriding royalty interests, receipts related to net profit and revenue interests, deal deposits, administrative agent fees, and other miscellaneous receipts, which are recognized as revenue when received. Structuring fees and certain other amendment or advisory fees are considered fees in exchange for the provision of certain services and are subject to the provisions of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). All other types of income are derived from lending or equity investments, which is recognized in accordance with ASC 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. See Note 10. Other Income. Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method. Refer to Investment Transactions above. 192 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Federal and State Income Taxes We have elected to be treated as a RIC and intend to continue to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to RICs. We are required to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income and intend to distribute (or retain through a deemed distribution) all of our investment company taxable income and net capital gain to stockholders; therefore, we have made no provision for income taxes. The character of income and gains that we will distribute is determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from GAAP. Book and tax basis differences relating to stockholder dividends and distributions and other permanent book and tax differences are reclassified to paid-in capital. If we do not distribute (or are not deemed to have distributed) at least 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains in the calendar year earned, we will generally be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which 98% of our annual ordinary income and 98.2% of our capital gains exceed the distributions from such taxable income for the year. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, we accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income. As of June 30, 2026, we do not expect to have any excise tax due for the 2026 calendar year. Thus, we have not accrued any excise tax for the year ended June 30, 2026. If we fail to satisfy the annual distribution requirement or otherwise fail to qualify as a RIC in any taxable year, we would be subject to tax on all of our taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. We would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would we be required to make distributions. Distributions would generally be taxable to our individual and other non-corporate taxable stockholders as ordinary dividend income eligible for the reduced maximum rate applicable to qualified dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, provided certain holding period and other requirements are met. Subject to certain limitations under the Code, corporate distributions would be eligible for the dividends-received deduction. To qualify again to be taxed as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to distribute to our stockholders our accumulated earnings and profits attributable to non-RIC years. In addition, if we failed to qualify as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a RIC in a subsequent year, we would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if we had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of five years. We follow ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing our tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. As of June 30, 2026, we did not record any unrecognized tax benefits or liabilities. Management’s determinations regarding ASC 740 may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations, and interpretations thereof. Although we file both federal and state income tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. Our federal tax returns for the tax years ended August 31, 2023 and thereafter remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Taxable Subsidiaries Certain of our consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. As of June 30, 2026, and June 30, 2025, no net tax benefit or expense was recorded since they did not result in a material provision for income taxes. As of June 30, 2026, and June 30, 2025, the net deferred tax asset or liability was not material to the financial statements after taking into account valuation allowances. Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount, if any, to be paid as a monthly dividend or distribution is approved by our Board of Directors quarterly and is generally based upon our management’s estimate of our future taxable earnings. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually. Our distributions may exceed our earnings, and therefore, portions of the distributions that we make may be a return of the money originally invested and represent a return of capital distribution to shareholders for tax purposes. 193 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Financing Costs We record origination expenses related to our Revolving Credit Facility as deferred financing costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method over the stated life of the obligation for our Revolving Credit Facility. Debt issuance costs and origination discounts related to our Convertible Notes, 3.364% 2026 Notes, and 3.437% 2028 Notes are presented net against the outstanding principal of the respective instrument and amortized as part of interest expense using the effective interest method over the stated life of the respective instrument. Debt issuance costs and origination discounts related to our 5.50% 2030 Notes (collectively, with our 3.364% 2026 Notes and 3.437% 2028 Notes, our “Public Notes”) and Prospect Capital InterNotes® (collectively, with our Public Notes, our “Unsecured Notes”) are net against the outstanding principal amount of our 5.50% 2030 Notes and Prospect Capital InterNotes®, respectively, and are amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method over the stated maturity of the respective note. In the event that we modify or extinguish our debt before maturity, we follow the guidance in ASC 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments (“ASC 470-50”). For modifications to or exchanges of our Revolving Credit Facility, any unamortized deferred costs relating to lenders who are not part of the new lending group are expensed. For extinguishments of our Unsecured Notes, any unamortized deferred costs are deducted from the carrying amount of the debt in determining the gain or loss from the extinguishment. Unamortized deferred financing costs are presented as a direct deduction to the respective Unsecured Notes (see Notes 5, 6, and 7). We may record registration expenses related to shelf filings as prepaid expenses. These expenses consist principally of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or Israeli Securities Authority (“ISA”) registration fees, legal fees and accounting fees incurred. These prepaid expenses are charged to capital upon the receipt of proceeds from an equity offering or reclassified to deferred debt issuance costs upon the receipt of proceeds from a debt offering and are presented and amortized in accordance with the above policy. The prepaid expenses are charged to expense if no offering is completed. As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, there are no prepaid expenses related to registration expenses and all amounts incurred have been expensed. Per Share Information In accordance with ASC 946, senior equity securities, such as preferred stock, are not considered in the calculation of net asset value per common share. Net asset value per common share also excludes the effects of assumed conversion of outstanding convertible securities, regardless of whether their conversion would have a diluting effect. Therefore, our net asset value is presented on the basis of per common share outstanding as of the applicable period end. We compute earnings per common share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding using the if-converted method for our Convertible Preferred Stock and, prior to our full redemption of the 2025 Notes on March 3, 2025, our Convertible Notes (together, “convertible instruments”). Diluted earnings per share excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. 194 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Preferred Stock In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A, the Company’s Preferred Stock (as defined in “Note 9. Equity Offerings, Offering Expenses, and Distributions”) has been classified in temporary equity on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Beginning with the period ended September 30, 2021, limitations on our ability to exercise our Issuer Optional Conversion on the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock (each, as defined below) created the possibility of redemption outside of the Company’s control if dividends on the Preferred Stock have accumulated and been unpaid for a period of two years. The 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock and 5.35% Series A Preferred Stock issued as temporary equity is recorded net of offering costs and issuance costs due to this possibility. The 5.50% Preferred Stock issued prior to the issuance of our 5.35% Series A Preferred Stock has a carrying value on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities equal to liquidation value per share. The Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock (each, as defined below) are redeemable at the election of the holder at any time and is probable of redemption outside of the Company’s control. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99-3A, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are accreted to redemption value within temporary equity upon issuance. Accretion to redemption value is treated as an adjustment to net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations applicable to common stockholders on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Accrued and unpaid dividends relating to the Preferred Stock are included in the preferred stock carrying value on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends declared on the Preferred Stock are included in preferred stock dividends on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Segment Reporting In accordance with ASC Topic 280 - Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company has determined that it has a single operating and reporting segment. As a result, the Company’s segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Company does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets. Derivative Instruments The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 815 - Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC Topic 815”) when accounting for derivative instruments. The Company may enter into derivative instruments, primarily foreign currency forward contracts, to manage its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain financing arrangements, including the 5.50% 2030 Notes. Derivative instruments are recognized as assets or liabilities at fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Company designates certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges, which hedge the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with forecasted interest payments on the 5.50% 2030 Notes, which are payable in Israeli Shekel. For qualifying cash flow hedges, the change in fair value of the hedging instrument included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”) and is reclassified into earnings in the same Consolidated Statement of Operations line item as the hedged item, when the hedged cash flows affect earnings. This will occur when interest payments are made and when the principal of the loan is fully repaid. The Company designates a certain foreign currency forward contract as fair value hedge of the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the principal of the 5.50% 2030 Notes. For this hedge, the Company has elected to apply the spot method (as defined within ASC Topic 815), whereby changes in the fair value of the forward contracts attributable to spot rate changes are included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The related gains and losses are recognized in earnings in the same Consolidated Statement of Operations line item as the earnings effect of the hedged item, which is net change in unrealized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions. The Company excludes forward points, the spot-forward difference, from the hedge effectiveness assessment. Forward points are recognized in earnings on a systematic basis over the term of the hedge, with any remaining change in the fair value of forward points recorded in OCI. Amounts recognized in earnings are presented in the same Consolidated Statement of Operations line item as the hedged item, which is net realized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions. Although the Company has the ability to offset derivative assets and liabilities that may be received or paid as part of collateral arrangements in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities in accordance with the applicable offsetting guidance, the Company has elected not to offset and therefore presents derivative assets and derivative liabilities on a gross basis. The Company also does not offset the fair value of derivative instruments against cash collateral posted or received. 195 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”). ASUs not listed were assessed by the Company and either determined to be not applicable or expected to have minimal impact on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements” (“ASU 2025-09”), which clarifies certain aspects of the hedge accounting guidance and addresses incremental hedge accounting issues arising from the global reference rate reform initiative, with the objective of more closely aligning hedge accounting with the economics of an entity’s risk management activities. ASU 2025-09 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, and is to be applied on a prospective basis. The Company will adopt ASU 2025-09 as of September 30, 2027, and the application of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”),” which intends to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and is to be adopted on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 during the year ended June 30, 2026 and concluded that the application of this guidance did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Note 3. Portfolio Investments As of June 30, 2026, we had investments in 91 portfolio companies and other portfolio investments, which had an amortized cost of $6,315,369 and a fair value of $6,342,558. As of June 30, 2025, we had investments in 97 portfolio companies, which had an amortized cost of $6,693,501 and a fair value of $6,673,516. The original cost basis of debt and equity securities acquired, including follow-on investments for existing portfolio companies, payment-in-kind interest, and structuring fees, totaled $453,597 and $892,598 during the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. Debt repayments and considerations from sales of equity securities of approximately $581,994 and $1,302,673 were received during the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. Throughout the remainder of this footnote, we aggregate our portfolio investments by type of investment, which may differ slightly from the nomenclature used by the constituent instruments defining the rights of holders of the investment, as disclosed on our Consolidated Schedules of Investments (“SOI”). The following investments are included in each category: •First Lien Revolving Line of Credit includes our debt investments in first lien revolvers as well as our debt investments in delayed draw term loans. •First Lien Debt includes our debt investments listed on the SOI such as first lien term loans (including “unitranche” loans, which are loans that combine both senior and subordinated debt and “last out” loans which are loans that have a secondary payment priority behind “first out” first-lien loans). •Second Lien Revolving Line of Credit includes our debt investments in second lien revolvers as well as our debt investments in delayed draw term loans. •Second Lien Debt includes our debt investments listed on the SOI as second lien term loans. •Unsecured Debt includes our debt investments listed on the SOI as unsecured. •Subordinated Structured Notes includes our investments in the “equity” security class of CLO funds such as income notes, preference shares, and subordinated notes. •Equity, unless specifically stated otherwise, includes our investments in preferred stock, common stock, membership interests, net profits interests, net operating income interests, net revenue interests, overriding royalty interests, escrows receivable, and warrants. 196 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) The following table shows the composition of our investment portfolio as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025: June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 Cost Fair Value Cost Fair Value First Lien Revolving Line of Credit $ 78,795 $ 72,378 $ 83,721 $ 81,551 First Lien Debt(1) 4,494,789 4,216,556 4,636,795 4,381,227 Second Lien Revolving Line of Credit 1,854 1,854 — — Second Lien Debt 752,658 577,354 965,712 765,806 Unsecured Debt 7,200 5,195 7,200 5,403 Subordinated Structured Notes 2,108 2,794 37,840 35,002 Equity 977,965 1,466,427 962,233 1,404,527 Total Investments $ 6,315,369 $ 6,342,558 $ 6,693,501 $ 6,673,516 (1) First lien debt includes loans that the Company classifies as “unitranche” and loans classified as “first lien last out”.

(2)Represents the implied discount rate based on our internally generated single-cash flow model that is derived from the fair value estimated by the corresponding multi-path cash flow model utilized by the independent valuation firm. (3)Represents Residual Profit Interests in Real Estate Investments. (4)The weighted average information is generally derived by assigning each disclosed unobservable input a proportionate weight based on the fair value of the related investment. Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations. In order to validate market quotations, management and the independent valuation firm look at a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and nature of the quotations. These investments are classified as Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of debt investments specifically classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy are generally valued by an independent pricing agent or more than one principal market maker, if available, otherwise a principal market maker or a primary market dealer. We generally value over-the-counter securities by using the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers during the relevant period end, which were provided by an independent pricing agent and screened for validity by such service. Certain derivative instruments are valued as Level 2 assets or liabilities using pricing information obtained from third-party pricing services, including IHS Markit. These valuations are based on prevailing market data as of the measurement date and are derived using models that apply well-recognized financial principles. Significant inputs to the valuation models include observable market data such as interest rate curves, forward curves, credit spreads, foreign exchange rates, volatilities, and other market-corroborated inputs. Management and the independent valuation firm evaluate the methodologies and inputs to assess whether the resulting values are representative of fair value. In determining the range of values for debt instruments where market quotations are not readily available, and are therefore classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except CLOs and debt investments in controlling portfolio companies, management and the independent valuation firm estimated corporate and security credit ratings and identified corresponding yields to maturity for each loan from relevant market data. A discounted cash flow technique was then applied using the appropriate yield to maturity as the discount rate, to determine a range of values. In determining the range of values for debt investments of controlled companies and equity investments, the enterprise value was determined by applying a market 203 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) approach such as using earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples, net income and/or book value multiples for similar guideline public companies and/or similar recent investment transactions and/or an income approach, such as the discounted cash flow technique. The enterprise value technique may also be used to value debt investments which are credit impaired. For stressed debt and equity investments, asset recovery analysis was used. In determining the range of values for our investments in CLOs, the independent valuation firm uses a discounted multi-path cash flow model. The valuations were accomplished through the analysis of the CLO deal structures to identify the risk exposures from the modeling point of view as well as to determine an appropriate call date (i.e., expected maturity). These risk factors are sensitized in the multi-path cash flow model using Monte Carlo simulations, to generate probability-weighted (i.e., multi-path) cash flows for the underlying assets and liabilities. These cash flows are discounted using appropriate market discount rates, and relevant data in the CLO market and certain benchmark credit indices are considered, to determine the value of each CLO investment. In addition, we generate a single-path cash flow utilizing our best estimate of expected cash receipts, and assess the reasonableness of the implied discount rate that would be effective for the value derived from the corresponding multi-path cash flow model. These investments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The significant unobservable input used to value our investments based on the yield technique and discounted cash flow technique is the market yield (or applicable discount rate) used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which includes both future principal and interest/dividend payments. Increases or decreases in the market yield (or applicable discount rate) would result in a decrease or increase, respectively, in the fair value measurement. Management and the independent valuation firms consider the following factors when selecting market yields or discount rates: risk of default, rating of the investment and comparable company investments, and call provisions. The significant unobservable inputs used to value our investments based on the EV analysis may include market multiples of specified financial measures such as EBITDA, revenue, net income, or book value of identified guideline public companies, implied valuation multiples from precedent M&A transactions, and/or discount rates applied in a discounted cash flow technique. The independent valuation firm identifies a population of publicly traded companies with similar operations and key attributes to that of the portfolio company. Using valuation and operating metrics of these guideline public companies and/or as implied by relevant precedent transactions, a range of multiples of the latest twelve months EBITDA, or other measure such as net income or book value, is typically calculated. The independent valuation firm utilizes the determined multiples to estimate the portfolio company’s EV generally based on the latest twelve months EBITDA of the portfolio company (or other meaningful measure). Increases or decreases in the multiple would result in an increase or decrease, respectively, in EV which would result in an increase or decrease in the fair value measurement of the debt of controlled companies and/or equity investment, as applicable. In certain instances, a discounted cash flow analysis may be considered in estimating EV, in which case, discount rates based on a weighted average cost of capital and application of the capital asset pricing model may be utilized. The significant unobservable inputs used to value our private REIT investments based on the discounted cash flow analysis is the discount rate and terminal capitalization rate applied to projected cash flows of the underlying properties. Increases or decreases in the discount rate and terminal capitalization rate would result in a decrease or increase, respectively, in the fair value measurement. Changes in market yields, discount rates, capitalization rates or EBITDA (or other) multiples, each in isolation, may change the fair value measurement of certain of our investments. Generally, an increase in market yields, discount rates or capitalization rates, or a decrease in EBITDA (or other) multiples may result in a decrease in the fair value measurement of certain of our investments. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the currently assigned valuations. 204 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Changes in Valuation Techniques During the year ended June 30, 2026, the valuation methodology for Aventiv Technologies, LLC (“Aventiv”) for the Third Out Super Priority First Lien Term Loan changed from relying on market quotes to relying solely on the enterprise value waterfall, since market quotes were less active in the current period and given the performance of Aventiv.

The Chapter 11 filing occurred on January 12, 2026. Subsequent to year-end, on July 8, 2026, STG Distribution, LLC emerged from Chapter 11 pursuant to its court-approved plan of reorganization.

The extension and upsizing of the Revolving Credit Facility extended the maturity date to June 28, 2029 and the revolving period through June 28, 2028, followed by an additional one-year amortization period, with distributions allowed to Prospect after the completion of the revolving period. During such one-year amortization period, all principal payments on the pledged assets will be applied to reduce the balance. At the end of the one-year amortization period, the remaining balance will become due. The Revolving Credit Facility contains restrictions pertaining to the geographic and industry concentrations of funded loans, maximum size of funded loans, interest rate payment frequency of funded loans, maturity dates of funded loans and minimum equity requirements, among other items. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains certain requirements relating to portfolio performance, including required minimum portfolio yield and limitations on delinquencies and charge-offs, violation of which could result in the early termination of the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2026, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility. The interest rate on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is one-month SOFR plus 205 basis points. Additionally, the lenders charge a fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility amount equal to either 40 basis points if more than 60% of the revolving credit facility amount is drawn, 70 basis points if more than 35% and an amount less than or equal to 60% of the revolving credit facility amount is drawn, or 150 basis points if an amount less than or equal to 35% of the revolving credit facility amount is drawn. The Revolving Credit Facility requires us to pledge assets as collateral in order to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2026, the investments, including cash and cash equivalents, used as collateral for the Revolving Credit Facility, had an aggregate fair value of $2,182,005, which represents 34.2% of our total investments, including cash and cash equivalents. These assets are held and owned by PCF, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, and, as such, these investments are not available to our general creditors. As additional eligible investments are transferred to PCF and pledged under the Revolving Credit Facility, PCF will generate additional availability up to the current commitment amount of $2,121,500. 210 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) For the years ended June 30, 2026, June 30, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the average stated interest rate (i.e., rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding borrowings for the Revolving Credit Facility were as follows: Year Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2024 Average stated interest rate 5.98% 6.73% 7.36% Average outstanding balance $ 797,978 $ 790,921 1,037,466 As of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we had $623,891 and $570,532, respectively, available to us for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $562,328 and $856,322 outstanding borrowings as of the respective balance sheet dates.

Because the hedge is designated for foreign currency exchange risk, the related changes in the 5.50% 2030 Notes’ net carrying value arose from foreign currency remeasurement, with offsetting changes in the related forward contract recognized in Net change in unrealized gains (losses) from derivative instruments and foreign currency transactions. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we reclassified net gains of $137 from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings as a decrease to interest expense. As of June 30, 2026, the estimated amount of net gains recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) that are expected to be reclassified into earnings as a decrease to interest expense, net within the next 12 months is approximately $240.

outstanding at the end of the year/period presented (in 000’s). (2)The asset coverage ratio for a class of secured senior securities representing indebtedness is calculated as our consolidated total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, divided by secured senior securities representing indebtedness. The asset coverage ratio for a class of unsecured senior securities representing indebtedness is inclusive of all senior securities representing indebtedness. With respect to the senior securities represented by indebtedness, this asset coverage ratio is multiplied by $1,000 to determine the Asset Coverage Per Unit. The asset coverage ratio for a class of senior securities representing preferred stock is calculated as our consolidated total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, divided by the sum of all senior securities representing indebtedness and the involuntary liquidation preference of senior securities representing preferred stock (the “Total Asset Coverage Ratio”). With respect to the Preferred Stock, the Asset Coverage Per Unit figure is expressed in terms of a dollar amount per share of outstanding Preferred Stock (based on a per share liquidation preference of $25). The rows reflecting “All Senior Securities” reflect the Total Asset Coverage Ratio as the asset coverage ratio, and express Asset Coverage Per Unit as per $1,000 of indebtedness or per $1,000 of Preferred Stock liquidation preference.

Preferred Stock On August 3, 2020, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with Preferred Capital Securities, LLC (“PCS”), as amended on June 9, 2022, October 7, 2022, February 10, 2023, December 29, 2023, October 17, 2024, December 27, 2024, and February 10, 2026, pursuant to which PCS has agreed to serve as the Company’s agent, principal distributor and dealer manager for the Company’s offering of up to 105,858,302 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. Such preferred stock may be issued in multiple series, including the 5.50% Series A1 Preferred Stock (“Series A1 Preferred Stock”), the 5.50% Series M1 Preferred Stock (“Series M1 Preferred Stock”), the 5.50% Series M2 Preferred Stock (“Series M2 Preferred Stock”), the 6.50% Series A3 Preferred Stock (“Series A3 Preferred Stock”), the 6.50% Series M3 Preferred Stock (“Series M3 Preferred Stock”), the Floating Rate Series A4 Preferred Stock (“Series A4 Preferred Stock”), the Floating Rate Series M4 Preferred Stock (“Series M4 Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series A4 Preferred Stock, the “Floating Rate Preferred Stock”), the 7.50% Series A5 Preferred Stock (“Series A5 Preferred Stock”), and the 7.50% Series M5 Preferred Stock (“Series M5 Preferred Stock,” and together with the Series A5 Preferred Stock, the “7.50% Preferred Stock”). However, as disclosed in the Supplement No. 1 dated September 6, 2024 and Supplement No. 3 dated December 27, 2024 to the Prospectus Supplement dated December 29, 2023, the Company is no longer offering the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the Series M2 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series M3 Preferred Stock, and the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and, as a result, any additional preferred stock offered under this offering will be only in any combination of our 7.50% Preferred Stock, which are not convertible. In connection with such offering, on August 3, 2020, June 9, 2022, October 11, 2022, February 10, 2023, December 28, 2023 (two filings), October 17, 2024, and December 27, 2024 we filed Articles Supplementary with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (“SDAT”), reclassifying and designating 120,000,000, 60,000,000, 120,000,000, 60,000,000, 160,000,000, 40,000,000, 20,000,000, and 180,000,000 shares, respectively, of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock. On October 30, 2020, and as amended on February 18, 2022, October 7, 2022 and February 10, 2023, we entered into a Dealer Manager Agreement with InspereX LLC, pursuant to which InspereX LLC has agreed to serve as the Company’s agent and dealer manager for the Company’s offering of up to 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share. Such preferred stock will initially be issued in multiple series, including the 5.50% Series AA1 Preferred Stock (the “Series AA1 Preferred Stock”), the 5.50% Series MM1 Preferred Stock (the “Series MM1 Preferred Stock”), the 6.50% Series AA2 Preferred Stock (the “Series AA2 Preferred Stock”), and the 6.50% Series MM2 Preferred Stock (the “Series MM2 Preferred Stock” and together with the Series M1 Preferred Stock, the Series M2 Preferred Stock, the Series M3 Preferred Stock, and the Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the “Series M Preferred Stock”, and the Series MM2 Preferred Stock, together with the Series AA2 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock and the Series M3 Preferred Stock, the “6.50% Preferred Stock”); however as disclosed in the Supplement No. 2 dated September 6, 2024 to the Prospectus Supplement dated February 10, 2023, the Company is no longer offering the Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the Series AA2 Preferred Stock and the Series MM2 Preferred Stock. On October 30, 2020, February 17, 2022, and October 11, 2022, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 80,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as convertible preferred stock. On May 6, 2026, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating 80,000,000 authorized but unissued shares of Series AA1 Preferred Stock, Series MM1 Preferred Stock, Series AA2 Preferred Stock and Series MM2 Preferred Stock as additional shares of common stock. As a result of such reclassification and designation, we no longer have any authorized shares of Series AA1 Preferred Stock, Series MM1 Preferred Stock, Series AA2 Preferred Stock or Series MM2 Preferred Stock as of June 30, 2026. On May 19, 2021, we entered into an Underwriting Agreement with UBS Securities LLC, relating to the offer and sale of 187,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of 5.50% Series A2 Preferred Stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share (the “Series A2 Preferred Stock”, and together with the Series A1 Preferred Stock, Series M1 Preferred Stock, Series M2 Preferred Stock, Series AA1 Preferred Stock, and Series MM1 Preferred Stock, the “5.50% Preferred Stock”). The issuance of the Series A2 Preferred Stock settled on May 26, 2021. In connection with such offering, on May 19, 2021, we filed Articles Supplementary with the SDAT, reclassifying and designating an additional 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of preferred stock as Convertible Preferred Stock. 223 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) In connection with the offerings of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, the 6.50% Preferred Stock, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, and the 7.50% Preferred Stock, we adopted and amended, respectively, a preferred stock dividend reinvestment plan (the “Preferred Stock Plan” or the “Preferred Stock DRIP”), pursuant to which (i) holders of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and the 7.50% Preferred Stock will have dividends on their Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock reinvested in additional shares of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock at a price per share of $25.00 and (ii) holders of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock will have dividends on their 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock automatically reinvested in additional shares of such 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock at a price per share of $23.75 (95% of the stated value of $25.00 per share), if they elect. At any time prior to the listing of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock on a national securities exchange, shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock are convertible, at the option of the holder of the 5.50% Preferred Stock and the 6.50% Preferred Stock (the “Holder Optional Conversion”). We will settle any Holder Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of shares of our common stock over each of the five consecutive trading days ending on the Holder Conversion Exercise Date (such arithmetic average, the “5-day VWAP”). For the Series A1 Preferred Stock, the Series A3 Preferred Stock, the Series AA1 Preferred Stock, the Series AA2 Preferred Stock and the Series A2 Preferred Stock, “Settlement Amount” means (A) $25.00 per share (the “Stated Value”), plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Holder Optional Conversion Fee for the respective Holder Conversion Deadline. For the Series M Preferred Stock, “Settlement Amount” means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Conversion Exercise Date, minus (C) the applicable Series M Clawback, if any. “Series M Clawback”, if applicable, means an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such share of Series M stock in the three full months prior to the Holder Conversion Exercise Date. Subject to certain limited exceptions, we will not pay any portion of the Settlement Amount in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued. Beginning on the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock is issued, we may elect to settle all or a portion of any Holder Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. The right of holders to convert a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock will terminate upon the listing of such share on a national securities exchange. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have a Holder Optional Conversion feature. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, beginning on the earlier of the five year anniversary of the date on which a share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock has been issued, or the two year anniversary of the date on which a share of Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock has been issued or, for listed shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, five years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued and for listed shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock or 7.50% Preferred Stock, two years from the earliest date on which any series that has been listed was first issued (the earlier of such dates as applicable to a series of Preferred Stock, the “Redemption Eligibility Date”), such share of Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time or from time to time at our option (the “Issuer Optional Redemption”), at a redemption price of 100% of the Stated Value of the shares to be redeemed plus unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for redemption. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are redeemable, at the option of the holder of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock, on a monthly basis (the “Holder Optional Redemption”). For all shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock duly submitted for redemption on or before a monthly Holder Redemption Deadline (defined in the prospectus supplement dated December 29, 2023), the HOR Settlement Amount (as defined below) is determined on any business day after such Holder Redemption Deadline but before the Holder Redemption Deadline occurring two months thereafter (such date, the “Holder Redemption Exercise Date”). Within such period, we may select the Holder Redemption Exercise Date in our sole discretion. We will settle any Holder Optional Redemption by paying the HOR Settlement Amount in cash. The aggregate amount of Holder Optional Redemptions by the holder of Floating Rate Preferred Stock is subject to the following redemption limits: (i) no more than 2% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per calendar month; (ii) no more than 5% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per fiscal quarter and (iii) no more than 20% of the outstanding Floating Rate Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per Annual Redemption Period. Redemption capacity of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock will be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the number of shares of Floating Rate Preferred Stock, as applicable, submitted in the event that a monthly redemption is oversubscribed, based on any of the foregoing redemption limits. 224 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) The aggregate amount of Holder Optional Redemptions by the holders of 7.50% Preferred Stock is subject to the following redemption limits: (i) no more than 2% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per calendar month; (ii) no more than 5% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per fiscal quarter; and (iii) no more than 20% of the outstanding 7.50% Preferred Stock, in aggregate, as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter will be redeemed per Annual Redemption Period; plus, for each redemption limit set forth above in clauses (i) through (iii) of this paragraph, an amount of such 7.50% Preferred Stock equal to the lowest excess, if any, between the corresponding applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for Floating Rate Preferred Stock as set forth above and the respective amounts requested for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock on a Holder Redemption Deadline for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock. Additionally, we have covenanted to waive the applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for the Floating Rate Preferred Stock as set forth in the terms of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock such that holders of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock may, in addition to the amount of Floating Rate Preferred Stock such holders are entitled to redeem pursuant to the terms of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, also redeem an amount of such Floating Rate Preferred Stock equal to the lowest excess, if any, between the corresponding applicable 2% / 5% / 20% redemption limits for the 7.50% Preferred Stock as set forth in the terms of the 7.50% Preferred Stock and the respective amounts requested for the 7.50% Preferred Stock on a Holder Redemption Deadline for the 7.50% Preferred Stock. Redemption capacity of the 7.50% Preferred Stock will be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the number of 7.50% Preferred Stock, as applicable, submitted in the event that a monthly redemption is oversubscribed based on any of the foregoing redemption limits. An “Annual Redemption Period” means our then current fiscal quarter and the three fiscal quarters immediately preceding our then current fiscal quarter. Shares of Series A4 Preferred Stock and Series A5 Preferred Stock are subject to an early redemption fee if it is redeemed by its holder within five years of issuance. We may waive the foregoing redemption limits in our sole discretion at any time. For the Series A4 Preferred Stock and Series A5 Preferred Stock, “HOR Settlement Amount” means (A) the stated value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, minus (C) the Series A4 Preferred Stock or Series A5 Preferred Stock Holder Optional Redemption fee, as applicable on the respective Holder Redemption Deadline. For the Series M4 Preferred Stock and Series M5 Preferred Stock, “HOR Settlement Amount” means (A) the stated value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, but if a holder of Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock exercises a Holder Optional Redemption within the first twenty-four months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the HOR Settlement Amount payable to such holder will be reduced by (i) during the first twelve months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, in the six-month period prior to the Holder Redemption Exercise Date, and (ii) during the second twelve months of issuance of such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock, the aggregate amount of all dividends, whether paid or accrued, on such Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock in the three-month period prior to the Holder Redemption Exercise Date (such amount, the “Series M4 Shares Clawback” and “Series M5 Shares Clawback,” respectively). We are permitted to waive the Series M4 Shares Clawback and Series M5 Shares Clawback through public announcement of the terms and duration of such waiver. Any such waiver would apply to any holder of Preferred Stock qualifying for the waiver and exercising a Holder Optional Redemption during the pendency of the term of such waiver. Although we have retained the right to waive the Series M4 Shares Clawback and Series M5 Shares Clawback in the manner described above, we are not required to establish any such waivers and we may never establish any such waivers. Subject to certain limitations, each share of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock may be converted at our option (the “Issuer Optional Conversion”). We will settle any Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount (as defined below) that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the 5-day VWAP, subject to our ability to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value if the 5-day VWAP represents a discount to our net asset value per share of common stock. For the 5.50% Preferred Stock and 6.50% Preferred Stock, “IOC Settlement Amount” means (A) the Stated Value, plus (B) unpaid dividends accrued to, but not including, the date fixed for conversion. In connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain or maintain any stockholder approval that may be required under the 1940 Act to permit us to sell our common stock below net asset value. If we do not have or obtain any required stockholder approval under the 1940 Act to sell our common stock below net asset value and the 5-day VWAP is at a discount to our net asset value per share of common 225 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) stock, we will settle any conversions in connection with an Issuer Optional Conversion by paying or delivering, as the case may be, (A) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash and (B) a number of shares of our common stock at a conversion rate equal to (1) (a) the IOC Settlement Amount, minus (b) any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount that we elect to pay in cash, divided by (2) the NAV per share of common stock at the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the date of conversion. We will not pay any portion of the IOC Settlement Amount from an Issuer Optional Conversion in cash (other than cash in lieu of fractional shares of our common stock) until the Redemption Eligibility Date. Beginning on the Redemption Eligibility Date, we may elect to settle any Issuer Optional Conversion in cash without limitation or restriction. In the event that we exercise an Issuer Optional Conversion with respect to any shares of 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock, the holder of such 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock may instead elect a Holder Optional Conversion with respect to such 5.50% Preferred Stock or 6.50% Preferred Stock provided that the date of conversion for such Holder Optional Conversion would occur prior to the date of conversion for an Issuer Optional Conversion. Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock do not have an Issuer Optional Conversion feature. The Company actively manages its offerings of preferred stock and, although it may or may not be presently offering a particular series of its preferred stock, the Company may determine to issue any of its authorized series of preferred stock (and, in connection therewith, to relaunch the offering of any particular series, if previously terminated) based on its assessment of market conditions, demand, and appropriate cost of capital in light of the foregoing and the overall construction of its portfolio and capital structure. On July 12, 2021, we entered into an underwriting agreement by and among us, Prospect Capital Management L.P., Prospect Administration LLC, and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC, as representatives of the underwriters, relating to the offer and sale of 6,000,000 shares, or $150,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our 5.35% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock” or “5.35% Preferred Stock”), at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, we also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 900,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock solely to cover over-allotments. The offer settled on July 19, 2021, and no additional shares of the Series A Preferred Stock were issued pursuant to the option. In connection with such offering, on July 15, 2021, we filed Articles Supplementary with SDAT, reclassifying and designating 6,900,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into shares of Series A Preferred Stock. On May 8, 2026, we entered into an equity distribution agreement by and among us, Prospect Capital Management L.P., Prospect Administration LLC, and A.G.P. / Alliance Global Partners (“AGP”), with AGP as sales agent, relating to the offer and sale, by means of an at-the-market (“ATM”) offering, of up to 16,000,000 shares, or $400,000 in aggregate liquidation preference, of our Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock ATM Program”). In connection with such offering, on May 8, 2026, we filed Articles Supplementary with SDAT, reclassifying and designating 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock into additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we issued and sold $1,642 aggregate liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock under the Series A Preferred Stock ATM Program, for net proceeds of $1,098, after commissions, discounts, and offering costs. As of June 30, 2026, there were 5,316,849 shares, or $132,921 aggregate liquidation preference, of the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. Each series of 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, Floating Rate Preferred Stock, 7.50% Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Stock ranks (with respect to the payment of dividends and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) (a) senior to our common stock, (b) on parity with each other series of our preferred stock, and (c) junior to our existing and future secured and unsecured indebtedness. See Note 8. Fair Value and Maturity of Debt Outstanding for further discussion on our senior securities. We may from time to time seek to purchase and cancel our outstanding preferred stock through cash purchases and/or exchanges, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The amounts involved may be material. Any such purchases or exchanges of preferred stock would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. On June 16, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1.5 million shares our Series A Preferred Stock and further on October 11, 2023, authorized any and all outstanding Series A Preferred Stock to be repurchased. The manner, price, volume and timing of preferred share repurchases are subject to a variety of factors, including market conditions and applicable SEC rules. Each share of preferred stock converted into shares of common stock, redeemed, exchanged or acquired by the Company is canceled and retired and is not reissued, and is returned to the status of authorized but unissued common stock. 226 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) During the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, we did not repurchase shares of Series A Preferred Stock. On October 30, 2023, we commenced a tender offer (the “Series A Preferred Stock Tender Offer”) to purchase for cash any and all of 5,882,351 shares of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $15.88, plus accrued and unpaid dividends for a total consideration of $16.00 per share. The Series A Preferred Stock Tender Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 29, 2023 and as a result, $15,780 aggregate liquidation amount of the Series A Preferred Stock were validly tendered and accepted, and we recognized a realized gain of $5,197 during the year ended June 30, 2024 from the purchase of 631,194 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the amount of the difference between the consideration transferred and the net carrying amount of the Series A Preferred Stock. During the year ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased 80,303 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for a total cost of approximately $1,279, including fees and commissions paid to the broker, representing an average repurchase price of $15.76 per share. The difference in the consideration transferred and the net carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock repurchased, which was $1,937, resulted in a gain applicable to common stock holders of approximately $657 during the year ended June 30, 2024. The repurchased shares reverted to authorized but unissued shares of Series A Preferred Stock and thus the Company holds no treasury stock. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we exchanged an aggregate of 44,894 Series M1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 44,894 newly-issued Series M5 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. During the year ended June 30, 2026, we exchanged an aggregate of 59,132 Series M3 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 59,132 newly-issued Series M5 Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. During the year ended June 30, 2025, we exchanged an aggregate of 195,938 Series M1 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 10,842, 142,054, and 43,040 newly-issued Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, and Series M5 Preferred Stock respectively, pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. During the year ended June 30, 2025, we exchanged an aggregate of 294,040 Series M3 Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 266,878 and 27,160 newly-issued Series M4 Preferred Stock and newly-issued Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. The Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, and Series M5 Preferred Stock issued in the exchanges were issued in each case to an existing security holder of the Company exclusively in exchange for such holder’s securities. No commission or other remuneration was paid or given for soliciting the exchange. Stockholders who exchange Series M1 Preferred Stock for Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock for Series M4 Preferred Stock or Series M5 Preferred Stock will receive unpaid dividends on their Series M1 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock accrued to, but not including, the Exchange Exercise Date, plus any fractional amount of a Series M1 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock exchanged multiplied by $25.00 in cash. Upon settlement, the carrying amount (including any premiums or discounts and a proportional amount of any issuance costs) of the Series M1 Preferred Stock or Series M3 Preferred Stock are reclassified to Series M3 Preferred Stock, Series M4 Preferred Stock, or Series M5 Preferred Stock, respectively, with no gain or loss recognized. Subject to certain limited exceptions allowing earlier redemption, at any time after the close of business on July 19, 2026 (any such date, an “Optional Redemption Date”), at our sole option, we may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in whole or, from time to time, in part, out of funds legally available for such redemption, at a price per share equal to the liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption. We may also redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at any time, in whole or, from time to time, in part, including prior to the Optional Redemption Date, pro rata, based on liquidation preference, with all other series of our then outstanding preferred stock, in the event that our Board of Directors determines to redeem any series of our preferred stock, in whole or, from time to time, in part, because such redemption is deemed necessary by our Board of Directors to comply with the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act or for us to maintain RIC status. In the event of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below), we may, at our option, exercise our special optional redemption right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control Triggering Event has occurred by paying the liquidation preference, plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends on such shares (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the date fixed for such redemption. To the extent that we exercise our optional redemption right or our special optional redemption right relating to the Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not be permitted to exercise the conversion right described below in respect of their shares called for redemption. 227 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Except to the extent that we have elected to exercise our optional redemption right or our special optional redemption right by providing notice of redemption prior to the Change of Control Conversion Date (as defined below), upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, each holder of Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to convert some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder on the Change of Control Conversion Date into a number of our shares of common stock per Series A Preferred Stock to be converted equal to the lesser of: •the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the sum of the Liquidation Preference per share plus an amount equal to all unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not earned or declared, but excluding interest thereon) accumulated up to, but excluding, the Change of Control Conversion Date (unless the Change of Control Conversion Date is after a Record Date for a Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment and prior to the corresponding Series A Preferred Stock dividend payment date, in which case no additional amount for such accrued and unpaid dividends will be included in this sum) by (ii) the Common Stock Price (as defined below); and •6.03865, subject to certain adjustments, subject, in each case, to provisions for the receipt of alternative consideration upon conversion as described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If we have provided or provide a redemption notice with respect to some or all of the Series A Preferred Stock, holders of any Series A Preferred Stock that we have called for redemption will not be permitted to exercise their Change of Control Conversion Right in respect of any of their Series A Preferred Stock that have been called for redemption, and any Series A Preferred Stock subsequently called for redemption that have been tendered for conversion will be redeemed on the applicable date of redemption instead of converted on the Change of Control Conversion Date. For purposes of the foregoing discussion of a redemption upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the following definitions are applicable: “Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of any of the following: •the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation and other than an Excluded Transaction) in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Controlled Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than to any Permitted Holders); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, a pledge of assets pursuant to any of our secured debt instruments or the secured debt instruments of our Controlled Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to be any such sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or disposition; or •the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation and other than an Excluded Transaction) the result of which is that any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than any Permitted Holders) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our outstanding Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consummation of any of the transactions referred to in the bullet points above will not be deemed a Change of Control Triggering Event if we or the acquiring or surviving consolidated entity has or continues to have a class of common securities (or ADRs representing such securities) listed on the NYSE, the NYSE American or NASDAQ, or listed or quoted on an exchange or quotation system that is a successor to the NYSE, the NYSE American or NASDAQ, or is otherwise listed or quoted on a national securities exchange. The “Change of Control Conversion Date” is the date the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are to be converted, which will be a business day selected by us that is no fewer than 20 days nor more than 35 days after the date on which we provide the notice described above to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock. The “Common Stock Price” will be (i) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control Triggering Event by the holders of our common stock is solely cash, the amount of cash consideration per share of our common stock or (ii) if the consideration to be received in the Change of Control Triggering Event by holders of our common stock is other than solely cash (x) the average of the closing sale prices per share of our common stock (or, if no closing sale price is reported, the average of the closing bid and ask prices or, if more than one in either case, the average of the average closing bid and the average closing ask prices) for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control Triggering Event as reported on the principal U.S. securities exchange on which our common stock is then traded, or (y) the average of the last quoted bid prices for our common stock in the over-the-counter market as reported by 228 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) OTC Markets Group Inc. or similar organization for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding, but not including, the effective date of the Change of Control Triggering Event, if our common stock is not then listed for trading on a U.S. securities exchange. “Controlled Subsidiary” means any of our subsidiaries, 50% or more of the outstanding equity interests of which are owned by us and our direct or indirect subsidiaries and of which we possess, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies, whether through the ownership of voting equity interests, by agreement or otherwise. “Excluded Transaction” means (i) any transaction that does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of all or substantially all of the outstanding shares of our Voting Stock; (ii) any changes resulting from a subdivision or combination or a change solely in par value; (iii) any transaction where the shares of our Voting Stock outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitute, or are converted into or exchanged for, a majority of the Voting Stock of the surviving “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) or any direct or indirect parent company of the surviving “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) immediately after giving effect to such transaction; (iv) any transaction if (A) we become a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (B)(1) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of our Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (2) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company; or (v) any transaction primarily for the purpose of changing our jurisdiction of incorporation or form of organization. “Permitted Holders” means (i) us, (ii) one or more of our Controlled Subsidiaries and (iii) Prospect Capital Management or any affiliate of Prospect Capital Management that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction located in the United States of America and in the business of managing or advising clients. “Voting Stocks” as applied to stock of any person, means shares, interests, participations or other equivalents in the equity interest (however designated) in such person having ordinary voting power for the election of the directors (or the equivalent) of such person, other than shares, interests, participations or other equivalents having such power only by reason of the occurrence of a contingency. Except as provided above in connection with a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into or exchangeable for any other securities or property. For so long as the Series A Preferred Stock, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock, or 7.50% Preferred Stock are outstanding, we will not exercise any option we have to convert any other series of our outstanding preferred stock to common stock, including the Issuer Optional Conversion, or any other security ranking junior to such preferred stock. As a result, if dividends on the Preferred Stock have accumulated and been unpaid for a period of two years, a possibility of redemption outside of the Company’s control exists and, in accordance with ASC 480, we have presented our 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, and Series A Preferred Stock within temporary equity on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. The Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are redeemable at the election of the holder at any time; therefore, is probable of redemption outside of the Company’s control. As a result, the Floating Rate Preferred Stock and 7.50% Preferred Stock are classified within temporary equity on our Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2026 and are accreted to redemption value upon issuance. Accretion to redemption value is treated as an adjustment to net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations applicable to common stockholders on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Shares of the 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, and 7.50% Preferred Stock will pay a monthly dividend, when and if declared by our Board of Directors, at a fixed annual dividend rate of 5.50%, 6.50%, and 7.50%, respectively, per annum of the Stated Value of $25.00 per share (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), payable in cash or through the issuance of additional 5.50% Preferred Stock, 6.50% Preferred Stock, and 7.50% Preferred Stock through the 5.50% Preferred Stock DRIP, 6.50% Preferred Stock DRIP, and 7.50% Preferred Stock DRIP, respectively. 229 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Shares of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock will pay a monthly dividend, when, and if authorized by, or under authority granted by, our Board of Directors, and declared by us out of funds legally available therefor, at an annualized floating rate equal to one-month Term SOFR (as defined in the Prospectus Supplement dated December 29, 2023) plus 2.00%, subject to a minimum annualized dividend rate of 6.50% (the “Cap Rate”) and a maximum annualized dividend rate of 8.00%, each with respect to the stated value of $25.00 per share of the Floating Rate Preferred Stock (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), payable in cash or through the issuance of additional Floating Rate Preferred Stock through the Floating Rate Preferred Stock DRIP. The floating dividend rate on the Floating Rate Preferred Stock will reset upon each dividend authorization by our Board of Directors, and will reset to the applicable rate as determined two U.S. Government Securities Business Days (as defined in the Prospectus Supplement dated December 29, 2023) prior to such authorization, as adjusted for the terms herein. The applicable floating dividend rate on the Floating Rate Preferred Stock is presently expected to reset approximately once every three months. Shares of the Series A Preferred Stock will pay a quarterly dividend, when and if declared by our Board of Directors, at a fixed annual dividend rate of 5.35% per annum of the Stated Value of $25.00 per share (computed on the bases of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), payable in cash. The below distributions to our Preferred Stockholders are net of any Series M Clawback applied to Series M stock through either the Holder Optional Conversion or Holder Optional Redemption of such Series M shares. Our distributions to our 5.50% Preferred Stock holders, 6.50% Preferred Stock holders, 7.50% Preferred Stock holders, Floating Rate Preferred Stock holders and 5.35% Series A Preferred Stock holders

Our common stock has been issued through public offerings, a registered direct offering, the exercise of over-allotment options on the part of the underwriters, our common stock dividend reinvestment plan in connection with the acquisition of certain controlled portfolio companies and in connection with our 5.50% and 6.50% Preferred Stock Holder Optional Conversion and Optional Redemptions Following Death of a Holder. When our common stock is issued, the related offering expenses have been charged against paid-in capital in excess of par. All underwriting fees and offering expenses were borne by us. On August 24, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan (the “Repurchase Program”), pursuant to which we may repurchase up to $100,000 of our common stock at prices below our net asset value per share. Prior to any repurchase, we are required to notify stockholders of our intention to purchase our common stock. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under the Repurchase Program for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the Repurchase Program is $65,860.

On February 9, 2016, we amended our common stock dividend reinvestment plan that provided for reinvestment of our dividends or distributions on behalf of our stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash, to add the ability of stockholders to purchase additional common shares by making optional cash investments. Under the revised dividend reinvestment and direct common stock repurchase plan, stockholders may elect to purchase additional common shares through our transfer agent in the open market or in negotiated transactions. On April 17, 2020, our Board of Directors approved further amendments to our common stock dividend reinvestment plan, effective May 21, 2020, that principally provide for the number of newly-issued shares of our common stock to be credited to a stockholder’s account shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to such common stockholder by 95% of the market price per share of our common stock at the close of regular trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the date fixed by our Board of Directors for such distribution. On July 7, 2026 at a special meeting of stockholders, our stockholders authorized us to sell shares of our common stock (during the next 12 months) at a price or prices below our net asset value per share at the time of sale in one or more offerings, subject to certain conditions as set forth in the proxy statement relating to the special meeting (including that the number of shares sold on any given date does not exceed 25% of its outstanding common stock immediately prior to such sale).

Other Income Other income consists of structuring fees, amendment fees, overriding royalty interests, receipts related to net profit and revenue interests, deal deposits, administrative agent fees, and other miscellaneous and sundry cash receipts. The following table shows income from such sources during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024: Year Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2024 Structuring and amendment fees $ 9,000 $ 12,348 $ 27,666 Royalty, net profit and revenue interests 668 15,838 51,001 Administrative agent fees 887 763 730 Total other income $ 10,555 $ 28,949 $ 79,397 Note 11. Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets per Common Share Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, less preferred stock dividends plus net gain (loss) on repurchase and accretion to redemption value of redeemable preferred stock, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for that period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding using the if-converted method for the 5.50% Preferred Stock, the 6.50% Preferred Stock (see Note 9) and for the year ended June 30, 2024, the 2025 Notes (see Note 5). The 2025 Notes matured on March 1, 2025 and therefore are excluded from the if-converted method of dilutive earnings per share for the years ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. Diluted earnings per share excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. During the year ended June 30, 2026, all 49,182,136 shares of our issued and outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock has an anti-dilutive effect and therefore, conversion is not assumed. During the year ended June 30, 2025, all 54,410,942 shares of our issued and outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock has an anti-dilutive effect and therefore, conversion is not assumed. During the year ended June 30, 2024, conversion of our Convertible Notes and 3,711,904 shares of our issued and outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock has an anti-dilutive effect and therefore, conversion is not assumed. The remaining 55,335,151 shares of issued and outstanding Convertible Preferred Stock were dilutive during the year ended June 30, 2024; therefore, the effects of their assumed conversion is reflected in the diluted earnings per share below. The following information sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share during the year ended June 30, 2026, 2025,and 2024, respectively: 239 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) For the Year Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2024 Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations - basic $ 29,828 $ (593,762) $ 147,416 Adjustment for dividends on Convertible Preferred Stock — — 80,100 Adjustment for Incentive Fee on Convertible Instruments — — (16,020) Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations - diluted $ 29,828 $ (593,762) $ 211,496 Weighted average common shares outstanding - basic 479,866,265 440,314,909 412,703,365 Weighted average common shares from assumed conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock — — 212,573,371 Weighted average common shares from assumed conversion of Convertible Notes — — — Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding - diluted 479,866,265 440,314,909 625,276,736 Earnings (loss) per share - basic $ 0.06 $ (1.35) $ 0.36 Earnings (loss) per share - diluted $ 0.06 (1) $ (1.35) $ 0.34 (1) Dilutive impacted from conversion is less than $0.01 per share. Note 12. Income Taxes While our fiscal year end for financial reporting purposes is June 30 of each year, our tax year end is August 31 of each year. The information presented in this footnote is based on our tax year end for each period presented, unless otherwise specified. The determination of tax character of distributions was not determinable at the end of the fiscal year end. Final determination of tax character of distributions will not be final until we file our return for the tax year. For income tax purposes, dividends paid and distributions made to stockholders are reported as ordinary income, capital gains, non-taxable return of capital, or a combination thereof. The tax character of dividends paid to common stockholders during the tax years ended August 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were as follows: Tax Year Ended August 31, 2025 2024 2023 Ordinary income $ 189,162 $ 227,508 $ 243,085 Capital gain — — — Return of capital 69,913 71,414 44,838 Total distributions paid to common stockholders $ 259,075 $ 298,922 $ 287,923 The tax character of dividends paid to preferred stockholders during the tax years ended August 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were as follows: Tax Year Ended August 31, 2025 2024 2023 Ordinary income $ 106,977 $ 99,253 $ 74,975 Capital gain — — — Return of capital — — — Total distributions paid to preferred stockholders $ 106,977 $ 99,253 $ 74,975 240 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) As of August 26, 2025 when our prior Form 10-K was filed for the year ended June 30, 2025, we estimated our distributions for the fiscal year then ended to be $360,488 of distributions of ordinary income and $10,394 to be return of capital. Subsequent to our filing date, we obtained more information from our underlying investments as to the character of the distributions for the tax year ended August 31, 2025, which resulted in changes to distributions previously disclosed in our Form 10-K filing. As a result of the change, our total distributable loss on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the year ended June 30, 2025 changed from $1,253,880 to $1,194,137, with $59,743 being reclassified to return of capital from ordinary income. The remaining reclassification of tax distributions classified as return of capital for the tax year ended August 31, 2025 has been adjusted in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026. This adjustment results in an increase to distributable earnings of $10,170 for the year ended June 30, 2026. For the tax year ending August 31, 2026, the tax character of distributions paid to stockholders through June 30, 2026 is expected to be ordinary income and return of capital. However, due to the difference between our fiscal and tax year ends, the final determination of the tax character of distributions between ordinary income and return of capital will not be made until we file our tax return for the tax year ending August 31, 2026. Taxable income generally differs from net increase in net assets resulting from operations for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized gains or losses, as unrealized gains or losses are generally not included in taxable income until they are realized. The following table reconciles the net increase in net assets resulting from operations to taxable income for the tax years ended August 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023: Tax Year Ended August 31, 2025 2024 2023 Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations $ (490,501) $ 234,119 $ (88,043) Net realized (gains) losses on investments 539,089 434,238 40,795 Net unrealized (gains) losses on investments 289,399 (259,971) 480,916 Other temporary book-to-tax differences(1) (42,450) (81,794) (148,147) Permanent differences 96 62 27 Taxable income before deductions for distributions $ 295,633 $ 326,654 $ 285,548 (1) Temporary book-to-tax differences include timing recognition of CLO income, flow-through investment income/loss, and dividend income from portfolio companies. As of our most recent tax year ended August 31, 2025, we had no undistributed ordinary income in excess of cumulative distributions and no capital gain in excess of cumulative distributions. Capital losses in excess of capital gains earned in a tax year may generally be carried forward and used to offset capital gains, subject to certain limitations. As of our most recent tax year ended August 31, 2025, we had a capital loss carryforward of $711,167 available for use in later tax years. As of June 30, 2026, the cost basis of investments for tax purposes was $6,367,797 resulting in an estimated net unrealized loss of $25,239. As of June 30, 2025, the cost basis of investments for tax purposes was $6,800,692 resulting in an estimated net unrealized loss of $127,176. As of June 30, 2026, the gross unrealized gains and losses were $1,263,482 and $1,288,721, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, the gross unrealized gains and losses were $1,308,011 and $1,435,187, respectively. Due to the difference between our fiscal year end and tax year end, the cost basis of our investments for tax purposes as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 was calculated based on the book cost of investments as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively, with cumulative book-to-tax adjustments for investments through August 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In general, we may make certain adjustments to the classification of net assets as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, which may include merger-related items, differences in the book and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities, and nondeductible federal excise taxes, among other items. During the tax year ended August 31, 2025, we increased total distributable earnings by $97, decreased accumulated realized losses by $16,242, and decreased capital in excess of par value by $16,339. During the tax year ended August 31, 2024, we increased total distributable earnings by $63 and decreased accumulated realized losses by $21,530, and decreased capital in excess of par value by $21,593. Due to the difference between our fiscal and tax year end, the reclassifications for the taxable year ended August 31, 2025, once finalized, were recorded in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026 and the reclassifications for the taxable year ended August 31, 2024 were recorded in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. 241 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) Note 13. Related Party Agreements and Transactions Investment Advisory Agreement We have entered into an investment advisory and management agreement with the Investment Adviser (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) under which the Investment Adviser, subject to the overall supervision of our Board of Directors, manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, us. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser: (i) determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes to our portfolio and the manner of implementing such changes, (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments we make (including performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies), and (iii) closes and monitors investments we make. The Investment Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and it is free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its services to us are not impaired. For providing these services the Investment Adviser receives a fee from us, consisting of two components: a base management fee and an incentive fee. The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 2.00% on our total assets. For services currently rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The base management fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current calendar quarter. The total gross base management fee incurred to the favor of the Investment Adviser was $130,934, $145,756, and $157,001 during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The incentive fee has two parts. The first part, the income incentive fee, is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. For this purpose, pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees and other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement described below, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with payment-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital gains or losses. 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 calendar quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.75% per quarter (7.00% annualized). The net investment income used to calculate this part of the incentive fee is also included in the amount of the gross assets used to calculate the 2.00% base management fee. We pay the Investment Adviser an income incentive fee with respect to our pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows: •No incentive fee in any calendar quarter in which our pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate; •100.00% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate); and •20.00% of the amount of our pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 125.00% of the quarterly hurdle rate in any calendar quarter (8.75% annualized assuming a 7.00% annualized hurdle rate). These calculations are appropriately prorated for any period of less than three months and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the current quarter. 242 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) The second part of the incentive fee, the capital gains incentive fee, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 20.00% of our realized capital gains for the calendar year, if any, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation at the end of such year. In determining the capital gains incentive fee payable to the Investment Adviser, we calculate the aggregate realized capital gains, aggregate realized capital losses and aggregate unrealized capital depreciation, as applicable, with respect to each investment that has been in our portfolio. For the purpose of this calculation, an “investment” is defined as the total of all rights and claims which may be asserted against a portfolio company arising from our participation in the debt, equity, and other financial instruments issued by that company. Aggregate realized capital gains, if any, equal the sum of the differences between the aggregate net sales price of each investment and the aggregate amortized cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate realized capital losses equal the sum of the amounts by which the aggregate net sales price of each investment is less than the aggregate amortized cost basis of such investment when sold or otherwise disposed. Aggregate unrealized capital depreciation equals the sum of the differences, if negative, between the aggregate valuation of each investment and the aggregate amortized cost basis of such investment as of the applicable calendar year-end. At the end of the applicable calendar year, the amount of capital gains that serves as the basis for our calculation of the capital gains incentive fee involves netting aggregate realized capital gains against aggregate realized capital losses on a since-inception basis and then reducing this amount by the aggregate unrealized capital depreciation. If this number is positive, then the capital gains incentive fee payable is equal to 20.00% of such amount, less the aggregate amount of any capital gains incentive fees paid since inception. The total income incentive fee incurred was $26,508, $40,772, and $80,548 during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. No capital gains incentive fee was incurred during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024. Administration Agreement We have also entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with Prospect Administration under which Prospect Administration, among other things, provides (or arranges for the provision of) administrative services and facilities for us. For providing these services, we reimburse Prospect Administration for our allocable portion of overhead incurred by Prospect Administration in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and our allocable portion of the costs of our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Compliance Officer and her staff. Under this agreement, Prospect Administration furnishes us with office facilities, equipment and clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities. Prospect Administration also performs, or oversees the performance of, our required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records that we are required to maintain and preparing reports to our stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, Prospect Administration assists us in determining and publishing our net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of our tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to our stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of our expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to us by others. Under the Administration Agreement, Prospect Administration also provides on our behalf managerial assistance to certain portfolio companies (see Managerial Assistance to Portfolio Companies section below). The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party without penalty upon 60 days’ written notice to the other party. Prospect Administration is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Adviser. The Administration Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, Prospect Administration and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with it are entitled to indemnification from us for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of Prospect Administration’s services under the Administration Agreement or otherwise as administrator for us. Our payments to Prospect Administration are reviewed quarterly by our Board of Directors. In December 2025, Prospect Administration finalized a litigation settlement related to a portfolio company owned by the Company that provided $20,500 in proceeds to Prospect Administration. During the year ended June 30, 2026, Prospect Administration sent $2,369 of the proceeds to the Company for reimbursement of external legal fees previously incurred by us related to the litigation, which is recorded within the reimbursement of administrative expenses presented in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. From the remaining proceeds, $3,375 was sent to the portfolio company involved in the litigation settlement, and $14,756 was used to offset the below allocations of overhead expense from Prospect Administration to the Company during the year ended June 30, 2026. The gross allocation of overhead expense from Prospect Administration to the Company was $22,095, $22,257, and $25,781 for the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The $17,125 in litigation settlement proceeds discussed above was 243 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) recorded in the year ended June 30, 2026 to offset this allocation of overhead expense and is presented as a reimbursement of administrative expenses to arrive at the total net operating expenses reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Prospect Administration received estimated payments of $1,534, $2,615, and $4,435 directly from our portfolio companies for legal, tax, and other administrative services during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, respectively. We were given a credit for these payments as a reduction of the administrative services cost payable by us to Prospect Administration. Had Prospect Administration not received these payments during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, Prospect Administration’s charges for its administrative services during the respective periods would have increased by this amount. Managerial Assistance As a BDC, we are obligated under the 1940 Act to make available to certain of our portfolio companies significant managerial assistance. “Making available significant managerial assistance” refers to any arrangement whereby we provide significant guidance and counsel concerning the management, operations, or business objectives and policies of a portfolio company. We are also deemed to be providing managerial assistance to all portfolio companies that we control, either by ourselves or in conjunction with others. The nature and extent of significant managerial assistance provided by us to controlled and non-controlled portfolio companies will vary according to the particular needs of each portfolio company. Examples of such activities include (i) advice on recruiting, hiring, management and termination of employees, officers and directors, succession planning and other human resource matters; (ii) advice on capital raising, capital budgeting, and capital expenditures; (iii) advice on advertising, marketing, and sales; (iv) advice on fulfillment, operations, and execution; (v) advice on managing relationships with unions and other personnel organizations, financing sources, vendors, customers, lessors, lessees, lawyers, accountants, regulators and other important counterparties; (vi) evaluating acquisition and divestiture opportunities, plant expansions and closings, and market expansions; (vii) participating in audit committee, nominating committee, board and management meetings; (viii) consulting with and advising board members and officers of portfolio companies (on overall strategy and other matters); and (ix) providing other organizational, operational, managerial and financial guidance. Prospect Administration arranges for the provision of such managerial assistance arrangement on our behalf. When doing so, Prospect Administration utilizes its own personnel and primarily personnel of our Investment Adviser. We may bear the administrative expense of managerial assistance or, on behalf of Prospect Administration, may invoice portfolio companies receiving and paying for contractual managerial assistance, and we remit to Prospect Administration its cost of providing such services, including the charges deemed appropriate by our Investment Adviser for providing such managerial assistance. No income is recognized by Prospect. During the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024 we received payments of $11,021 ,$9,286, $10,459, respectively, from our portfolio companies for contractual managerial assistance and subsequently remitted these amounts to Prospect Administration. Co-Investments On January 6, 2026, we, our Investment Adviser and certain affiliates received an exemptive order from the SEC (the “Order”), which superseded a prior co-investment exemptive order granted on January 13, 2020 (and amended on August 2, 2022), that permits us, among other things, to participate with other funds managed by the Investment Adviser or certain affiliates, including Priority Income Fund, Inc., Prospect Floating Rate and Alternative Income Fund, Inc. and Prospect Enhanced Yield Fund, in certain co-investment transactions, where co-investing would otherwise be prohibited under the 1940 Act, subject to the conditions included therein. Under the terms of the Order, we generally are permitted to co-invest with certain of our affiliates if such co-investments are done on the same terms and at the same time, as further detailed in the Order. The Order requires that a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our Board of Directors make certain findings (1) in most instances when we co-invest with our affiliate in an issuer where our affiliate has an existing investment in the issuer, and either (i) we do not have an existing investment in the issuer or (ii) we do have an existing investment in the issuer, but we are not co-investing on a pro-rata basis with our affiliate, and (2) if we dispose of an asset acquired in a transaction under the Order unless the disposition is done on a pro rata basis. Pursuant to the Order, our Board of Directors oversees our participation in the co-investment program. As required by the Order, we have adopted, and our Board of Directors has approved, policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the terms of the Order, and the Investment Adviser and our Chief Compliance Officer will provide reporting to the Board of Directors. 244 PROSPECT CAPITAL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) (in thousands, except share and per share data) In certain situations where a co-investment with one or more funds managed by the Investment Adviser or its affiliates is not covered by the Order, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in different securities of the same issuer, the personnel of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates will need to decide which fund will proceed with the investment. Such personnel will make these determinations based on policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. We reimburse CLO investment valuation services fees initially incurred by Priority Income Fund, Inc. During the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025, and 2024, we recognized expenses related to valuation services of $32, $89, and $80, respectively. Additionally, we both incur and reimburse for expenses related to marketing, insurance, legal fees, offering costs and general and administrative expenses that are allocated between Prospect, Priority Income Fund, Inc., Prospect Floating Rate and Alternative Income Fund, Inc., Prospect Enhanced Yield Fund and Prospect Credit REIT, LLC. During the year ended June 30, 2026, the net amount reimbursed to us for these expenses was $203 and during the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the net amount reimbursed from us for these expenses was $51 and $177, respectively. Note 14. Transactions with Controlled Companies The descriptions below detail the transactions which Prospect Capital Corporation (“Prospect”) has entered into with each of our controlled companies. Certain of the controlled entities discussed below were consolidated effective July 1, 2014 (see Note 1). As such, transactions with these Consolidated Holding Companies are presented on a consolidated basis. Belnick, LLC (d/b/a The Ubique Group) On March 31, 2025, Prospect exercised certain rights and remedies under its loan documents to exercise voting rights in respect of the equity of Belnick, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries (“Belnick”), enabling Prospect to control 100% of the voting power of Belnick and to, among other things, appoint new officers, all of whom are our Investment Adviser’s professionals. As a result, Prospect’s investment in Belnick became classified as a control investment. Effective May 22, 2025, Prospect established 100% ownership of Belnick Holdings of Delaware, LLC (“Belnick Delaware”), a Consolidated Holding Company. On May 23, 2025, Belnick Delaware acquired a 100% voting interest in Belnick’s Class P Preferred units, which together with the voting rights obtained through proxy over the remaining Class A units, provides Prospect with 100% of the voting interest in Belnick. Belnick Delaware executed a share transfer agreement for the remaining Class A units and effective December 31, 2025, owns 100% of the membership units in Belnick. Belnick is a provider of high-volume, value-oriented furniture and furnishings to a broad range of residential and commercial end markets.

CP Energy Services Inc. Prospect owns 100% of the equity of CP Holdings of Delaware LLC (“CP Holdings”), a Consolidated Holding Company. CP Holdings owns 99.8% of the equity of CP Energy Services, Inc. (“CP Energy”), and the remaining equity is owned by CP Energy management. CP Energy owns directly or indirectly 100% of each of CP Well; Wright Foster Disposals, LLC; Foster Testing Co., Inc.; ProHaul Transports, LLC; and Wright Trucking, Inc. CP Energy provides oilfield flowback services and fluid hauling and disposal services through its subsidiaries. In June 2019, CP Energy purchased a controlling interest in the common equity of Spartan Energy Holdings, Inc. (“Spartan Holdings”), which owns 100% of Spartan Energy Services, LLC (“Spartan”) a portfolio company of Prospect with $61,429 and $51,477 in first lien term loans (the “Spartan Term Loans”) due to us as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. As a result of CP Energy’s purchase, and given Prospect’s controlling interest in CP Energy, our Spartan Term Loans are presented as control investments under CP Energy beginning June 30, 2019. Spartan remains the direct borrow and guarantor to Prospect for the Spartan Term Loans. In December 2019, Wolf Energy Holdings, Inc.
