On January 20, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Capital Southwest Corporation (the “Company”) authorized a new share repurchase program for up to $10 million of its outstanding common stock. Pursuant to the repurchase program, the Company may acquire up to $10 million of its outstanding common stock at prices below its net asset value per share as reported in its then most recently published financial statements. The Company may utilize various methods to effect the repurchases, which could include open market or negotiated transactions, including through Rule 10b5-1 plans. The timing, prices, and sizes of repurchases will depend upon prevailing market prices, general economic and market conditions, and other considerations. The repurchase program will be in effect until the approved dollar amount has been used to repurchase shares or the Board amends or discontinues the plan at any time.
