                                     PART I

Item 1. Business

     We were organized as a Texas corporation on April 19, 1961. Until September
1969, we operated as a licensee under the Small Business Investment Act of 1958.
At that time, we transferred to our wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Capital Southwest
Venture Corporation ("CSVC"), certain assets and our license as a small business
investment company ("SBIC").  CSVC is a closed-end,  non-diversified  investment
company of the management  type registered  under the Investment  Company Act of
1940  (the  "1940  Act").  Prior to March  30,  1988,  we were  registered  as a
closed-end, non-diversified investment company under the 1940 Act. On that date,
we elected to become a business development company subject to the provisions of
the 1940 Act, as amended by the Small Business Incentive Act of 1980. Because we
wholly own CSVC, the portfolios of both entities are referred to collectively as
"our", "we" and "us".

     We are a venture capital  investment  company whose objective is to achieve
capital  appreciation  through long-term  investments in businesses  believed to
have  favorable  growth  potential.  Our  investment  interests  are  focused on
expansion   financings,   management   buyouts,   recapitalizations,    industry
consolidations and early-stage financings in a broad range of industry segments.
Our  portfolio is a composite  of companies in which we have major  interests as
well  as  a  number  of  developing  companies  and  marketable   securities  of
established  publicly-owned  companies. We make available significant managerial
assistance  to the  companies  in which we invest  and  believe  that  providing
material  assistance  to such investee  companies is critical to their  business
development activities.

     The 12 largest  investments we own had a combined cost of $38,566,269 and a
value  of  $638,196,845,  representing  93.7% of the  value of our  consolidated
investment  portfolio at March 31, 2007.  For a narrative  description of the 12
largest investments,  see "Twelve Largest Investments - March 31, 2007" on pages
8 through 10 of our Annual Report to  Shareholders  for the Year Ended March 31,
2007 (our "2007  Annual  Report")  which is herein  incorporated  by  reference.
Certain of the  information  presented  on the 12 largest  investments  has been
obtained  from the  respective  companies  and,  in certain  cases,  from public
filings of such companies.  The financial  information  presented on each of the
respective companies is from such companies' audited financial statements.

     We compete for attractive  investment  opportunities  with venture  capital
partnerships  and  corporations,  venture  capital  affiliates of industrial and
financial companies, SBICs and wealthy individuals.

     The number of persons employed by us at March 31, 2007 was seven.

     Our internet  website address is  www.capitalsouthwest.com.  You can review
the filings we have made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission,  free
of charge by linking  directly from our website to NASDAQ, a database that links
to EDGAR, the Electronic Data Gathering,  Analysis,  and Retrieval System of the
SEC.  You should be able to access our  annual  reports on Form 10-K,  quarterly
reports  on Form  10-Q,  current  reports  on Form 8-K and  amendments  to those
reports filed or furnished  pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.  The charters  adopted by the  committees  of our board of
directors are also available on our website.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

     You  should  carefully  consider  the risks  described  below and all other
information  contained  in this  annual  report  on  Form  10-K,  including  our
consolidated  financial  statements and the related notes thereto. The risks and
uncertainties  described below are not the only ones facing us. 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  following
risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations
could be materially  adversely affected.  If that happens,  the trading price of
our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.



                                       1



There is  uncertainty  regarding  the  value of our  investments  in  restricted
securities.

     Our net  asset  value  is  based  on the  values  assigned  to the  various
investments  in  our  portfolio,  determined  in  good  faith  by our  board  of
directors.  Because of the inherent  uncertainty  of the  valuation of portfolio
securities which do not have readily ascertainable market values, our fair value
determinations  may differ  materially from the values which would be applicable
to unrestricted securities having a public market.

The lack of liquidity of our  restricted  securities  may  adversely  affect our
business.

     Our portfolio contains many securities which are subject to restrictions on
sale because they were acquired from issuers in "private placement" transactions
or because we are deemed to be an affiliate  of the issuer.  Unless an exemption
from the  registration  requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 is available,
we will not be able to sell these  securities  publicly  without the expense and
time  required to register the  securities  under  applicable  federal and state
securities laws. In addition,  contractual or practical limitations may restrict
our ability to liquidate our securities in portfolio  companies,  because we may
own a relatively large percentage of the issuer's outstanding securities.  Sales
may also be limited by unfavorable  market  conditions.  The  illiquidity of our
investments may preclude or delay the disposition of such securities,  which may
make it  difficult  for us to obtain  cash equal to the value at which we record
our investments.

There is limited publicly available information regarding the companies in which
we invest.

     Many of the  securities  in our  portfolio  are  issued by  privately  held
companies.  There is generally little or no publicly available information about
such  companies,  and we must rely on the diligence of our  management to obtain
the information  necessary for our decision to invest. There can be no assurance
that such diligence efforts will uncover all material  information  necessary to
make fully informed investment decisions.

Certain of our portfolio companies are highly leveraged.

     Many of our portfolio companies have incurred  substantial  indebtedness in
relation to their overall capital base. Such indebtedness  often has a term that
will  require  the  balance of the loan to be  refinanced  when it  matures.  If
portfolio companies cannot generate adequate cash flow to meet the principal and
interest payments on their  indebtedness,  the value of our investments could be
reduced or eliminated through  foreclosure on the portfolio  company's assets or
by the portfolio company's reorganization or bankruptcy.

Fluctuations may occur in our quarterly results.

     Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate materially due to a number of
factors including, among others, variations in and the timing of the recognition
of realized  and  unrealized  gains or losses,  the degree to which we encounter
competition in our portfolio  companies' markets,  the ability to find and close
suitable  investments,  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.  See  "Management's  Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

We may not continue to qualify for pass-through tax treatment.

     We may not  qualify for conduit  tax  treatment  as a Regulated  Investment
Company ("RIC") if we are unable to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M
of the Internal Revenue Code. If we fail to satisfy such  requirements and cease
to qualify for conduit tax treatment, we will be subject to federal taxes on our
net investment  income. The loss of this pass-through tax treatment could have a
material  adverse  effect  on the  total  return,  if  any,  obtainable  from an
investment in our common stock.

     Historically, we have distributed net investment income semi-annually.  Our
current  intention is to continue these  distributions of ordinary income to our
shareholders.  Also, historically,  we have retained net realized capital gains,
paid the resulting tax at the corporate  level and retained the after-tax  gains



                                       2


to  supplement  our equity  capital  and  support  continuing  additions  to our
portfolio. Our shareholders then report such capital gains on their tax returns,
receive credit for the tax we paid and are deemed to have  reinvested the amount
of the  retained  after-tax  gain.  We cannot  assure  you that we will  achieve
investment  results or maintain a RIC tax status  that will allow any  specified
level of cash  distributions  or our  shareholders'  current  tax  treatment  of
realized and retained capital gains.

Our financial  condition and results of operations will depend on our ability to
effectively manage any future growth.

     Sustaining  growth depends on our ability to identify,  evaluate,  finance,
and invest in companies that meet our investment  criteria.  Accomplishing  such
results on a  cost-effective  basis is a function of our marketing  capabilities
and skillful  management of the  investment  process.  Failure to achieve future
growth  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial
condition, and results of operations.

We are dependent upon management for our future success.

     Selection,  structuring  and  closing  our  investments  depends  upon  the
diligence and skill of our  management,  which is responsible  for  identifying,
evaluating,  negotiating,  monitoring  and  disposing  of our  investments.  Our
management's capabilities may significantly impact our results of operations. If
we lose any member of our management team and he/she cannot be promptly replaced
with an  equally  capable  team  member,  our  results  of  operations  could be
significantly impacted.

We operate in a highly competitive market for investment opportunities.

     We compete with a number of private equity funds, other investment entities
and  individuals  for investment  opportunities.  Some of these  competitors are
substantially larger and have greater financial resources,  and some are subject
to different  and  frequently  less  stringent  regulation.  As a result of this
competition,  we may  not be able to take  advantage  of  attractive  investment
opportunities  from time to time and there can be no  assurance  that we will be
able to identify and make investments that satisfy our objectives.

Changes in laws or regulations governing our operations or our failure to comply
with those laws or regulations may adversely affect our business.

     We and our  portfolio  companies  are subject to  regulation by laws at the
local,  state and federal level.  These laws and  regulations,  as well as their
interpretation,  may be changed from time to time.  Accordingly,  any changes in
these laws and  regulations or failure to comply with them could have a material
adverse effect on our business.  Certain of these laws and  regulations  pertain
specifically to business development companies such as ours.

Failure to deploy new capital may reduce our return on equity.

     If we fail to invest our capital  effectively,  our return on equity may be
decreased, which could reduce the price of the shares of our common stock.

Investment  in shares of our common  stock  should not be  considered a complete
investment program.

     Our stock is intended for investors seeking long-term capital appreciation.
Our investments in portfolio  securities  generally  require many years to reach
maturity,  and such  investments  generally are  illiquid.  An investment in our
shares should not be considered a complete investment program.  Each prospective
purchaser  should take into account his or her investment  objectives as well as
his or her other investments when considering the purchase of our shares.



                                       3


Our common stock often trades at a discount from net asset value.

     Our  common  stock  is  listed  on The  Nasdaq  Global  Market  ("NASDAQ").
Shareholders  desiring  liquidity  may sell  their  shares on NASDAQ at  current
market value,  which has often been below net asset value.  Shares of closed-end
investment  companies  frequently trade at discounts from net asset value, which
is a risk  separate and distinct  from the risk that a fund's  performance  will
cause its net asset value to decrease.

The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly.

     The market price and  marketability  of shares of our common stock may from
time to time be  significantly  affected  by  numerous  factors,  including  our
investment  results,  market  conditions,  and other  influences and events over
which we have no control and that may not be directly related to us.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

     We have no unresolved staff comments to report pursuant to Item 1B.

Item 2. Properties

     We maintain our offices at 12900 Preston Road,  Suite 700,  Dallas,  Texas,
75230, where we rent approximately 3,700 square feet of office space pursuant to
a lease  agreement  expiring in February  2008.  We believe that our offices are
adequate to meet our current and expected future needs.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

     We have no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or to
which any of our property is subject.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

     No matters were submitted to a vote of security  holders during the quarter
ended March 31, 2007.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     We are subject to financial market risks,  including  changes in marketable
equity  security  prices.  We do not use  derivative  financial  instruments  to
mitigate any of these risks.

     Our  investment  performance  is a  function  of our  portfolio  companies'
profitability,  which may be affected by economic  cycles,  competitive  forces,
foreign  currency  fluctuations  and production costs including labor rates, raw
material prices and certain basic commodity prices. Most of the companies in our
investment  portfolio do not hedge their  exposure to raw material and commodity
price fluctuations. However, the portfolio company with the greatest exposure to
foreign  currency  fluctuations  generally  hedges  its  exposure.  All of these
factors may have an adverse  effect on the value of our  investments  and on our
net asset value.

     Our investment in portfolio  securities includes fixed-rate debt securities
which totaled  $6,109,238 at March 31, 2007,  equivalent to 0.9% of the value of
our total  investments.  Generally,  these debt securities are below  investment
grade and have relatively high fixed rates of interest, therefore; minor changes
in market yields of publicly-traded  debt securities have little or no effect on
the values of debt securities in our portfolio and no effect on interest income.
Our investments in debt securities are generally held to maturity and their fair
values are  determined  on the basis of the terms of the debt  security  and the
financial condition of the issuer.



                                       5




     A  portion  of  our  investment  portfolio  consists  of  debt  and  equity
securities of private companies. We anticipate little or no effect on the values
of these  investments  from modest  changes in public market equity  valuations.
Should  significant  changes in market  valuations of comparable  publicly-owned
companies  occur,  there may be a corresponding  effect on valuations of private
companies,  which  would  affect the value and the amount and timing of proceeds
eventually  realized  from  these  investments.  A  portion  of  our  investment
portfolio also consists of restricted common stocks of publicly-owned companies.
The fair values of these  restricted  securities are influenced by the nature of
applicable resale restrictions,  the underlying earnings and financial condition
of the  issuers  of such  restricted  securities  and the market  valuations  of
comparable  publicly-owned companies. A portion of our investment portfolio also
consists of  unrestricted,  freely  marketable  common stocks of  publicly-owned
companies.  These freely marketable investments,  which are valued at the public
market price, are directly exposed to equity price risks, in that a change in an
issuer's  public market equity price would result in an identical  change in the
value of our investment in such security.
