1.      Basis of Presentation

        The accompanying  consolidated  financial statements,  which include the
accounts of Capital  Southwest  Corporation and its wholly-owned  small business
investment company  subsidiary (the "Company"),  have been prepared on the value
basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for investment
companies.  All significant  intercompany  accounts and  transactions  have been
eliminated in consolidation.

        The  financial   statements   included  herein  have  been  prepared  in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information  and the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 6 of Regulation S-X.
The financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the  consolidated
financial  statements and notes thereto  included in the Company's annual report
on Form  10-K for the  year  ended  March  31,  1998.  Certain  information  and
footnotes normally included in financial  statements prepared in accordance with
generally  accepted  accounting  principles  have  been  condensed  or  omitted,
although  the Company  believes  that the  disclosures  are  adequate for a fair
presentation.  The information  reflects all  adjustments  (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods.

         Interest  income in the nine months ended  December 31, 1998  decreased
from the year-ago period  primarily  because of a decrease in average idle funds
invested.  During the nine months ended  December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company
recorded dividend income from the following sources:

                                                 ==========      ==========

            Salaries in the nine months ended  December 31, 1998  decreased from
the year-ago period mainly due to a reduction in staff. Other operating expenses
in the nine months ended December 31, 1998  increased  from the year-ago  period
primarily due to the payment of a finders fee related to an investment.

         During the nine months ended December 31, 1998, the Company  reported a
realized  gain  before  income  taxes of  $761,837.  It should  be noted  that a
realized gain before income taxes occurs when an appreciated  portfolio security
is  sold  to  realize  a  gain  and  a  corresponding   decrease  in  unrealized
appreciation  occurs by  transferring  the gain  associated with the transaction
from being "unrealized" to being "realized". Conversely, when a loss is realized
on a depreciated  portfolio  security,  an increase in  unrealized  appreciation
occurs.

         During the quarter ended December 31, 1998, the Company made additional
investments of $1,897,860 in existing portfolio companies.

         The Company has agreed, subject to certain conditions,  to invest up to
$2,900,000 in three portfolio companies.

         Many computer  software  systems in use today cannot  properly  process
date-related  information  from and after  January  1,  2000.  Should any of the
computer systems employed by our major portfolio  companies fail to process this
type  of  information   properly,  it  could  have  a  negative  impact  to  our
shareholders.  The Company has reviewed its computer  system and determined that
it will be Year 2000  compliant.  In  addition,  the Company has inquired of its
major service providers as well as its major portfolio companies to determine if
they will be prepared for the Year 2000.  All have indicated they are taking the
necessary  steps to be Year 2000 compliant.  It is anticipated  that the Company
will incur no material expenses related to the Year 2000 issues.
