Item 1. Security and Issuer

This statement relates to shares of the common stock, par value $0.25 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Capital Southwest Corporation, (the “Issuer”) whose principal executive offices are located at 12900 Preston Road, Suite 700, Dallas, TX 75230. This Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) supplements and amends the Amended Schedule 13D filed on June 9, 2014 (“Amendment No. 2”), which amended and supplemented the Schedule 13D filed on May 31, 2012 (as corrected on August 23, 2013), (the “Original 13D”) by Zuckerman Investment Group, LLC (“ZIG”), Sherwin A. Zuckerman, and Daniel R. Zuckerman (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”) with respect to the Common Stock of the Issuer.

Capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 3 and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Original 13D and/or Amendment No. 1 and/or Amendment No. 2. The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment No. 3 to report that, as a result of certain sales of the Issuer’s Common Stock in ordinary market transactions (see Item 5), the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the Issuer’s Common Stock has increased by more than one percent since the filing of Amendment No. 2. Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 3, the disclosure in the Original 13D, as amended by Amendment No. 2, remains in full force and effect.

  (c) Zuckerman Investment Group, LLC (“ZIG”) is a registered investment adviser that manages balanced, equity and fixed income portfolios for high net worth individuals and families, trusts, limited partnerships, retirement plans, and charitable foundations. It provides investment advice, counseling and portfolio management on both a discretionary and non-discretionary basis through the use of separately managed accounts. Sherwin A. Zuckerman is the Chairman, Co-CEO and a Class A Shareholder of ZIG and Daniel R. Zuckerman is the Co-CEO and a Class A and Class B shareholder of ZIG, and thus each may be considered the beneficial owners of the Common Stock beneficially owned by ZIG. Each of the reporting persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the Common Stock except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein.

 

  (d)-(e) None of the Reporting Persons have (i) been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors); or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction where as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

 

  (f) See (a)-(b) above

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The Funds used for the purchase of the Common Stock were the invested funds of ZIG’s advisory clients and Sherwin Zuckerman and Daniel Zuckerman. A total of approximately $36,872,800 was paid to acquire such Common Stock. The Common Stock was acquired in open market purchases in the ordinary course of ZIG’s business and is held in separate accounts maintained for each of ZIG’s advisee clients and Sherwin Zuckerman and Daniel Zuckerman at one or more independent banks and/or brokerage firms. No shares were purchased on margin.

 

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The responses set forth in Item 4 of the Original 13D and Amendment No. 2 are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

ZIG acquired, for investment purposes on behalf of the accounts of certain investment advisory clients of ZIG over which ZIG has investment discretion (including but not limited to certain accounts of Sherwin A. Zuckerman and Daniel R. Zuckerman), the shares of the Common Stock reported herein as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons. From time to time ZIG has also sold shares of the Common Stock for the accounts of such investment advisory clients. ZIG’s purchases and sales were made in the ordinary course of its business as a registered investment adviser and not with the purpose nor with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the Issuer, nor in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect. (See Item 5(c) for a list of transactions). The shares of Common Stock over which ZIG currently exercises control or discretion are beneficially owned by certain investment advisory clients of ZIG on whose behalf ZIG has discretionary investment authority (including but not limited to certain accounts of Sherwin A. Zuckerman and Daniel R. Zuckerman). ZIG, on behalf of such investment advisory clients, may in the future purchase additional shares of the Common Stock or dispose of some or all of such shares in open-market transactions or privately negotiated transactions. Other than as described herein and the Original Schedule 13D, as subsequently amended by Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, ZIG does not have any plans or proposals that would result in any of the actions described in paragraphs (b) through (j) of Item 4 of the instructions to Schedule 13D.
