              SIRROM CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   ORGANIZATION

     Sirrom Capital Corporation (the "Company"), a Tennessee Corporation, was
formed in November 1994 and Sirrom Capital, L.P. (the "Partnership") became a
partnership under the laws of the State of Tennessee in November 1991. Effective
February 1, 1995, the partners of the Partnership transferred, in a tax free
conversion, their partnership interests to the Company in exchange for the
issuance of 10,100,232 shares of common stock of the Company. The common stock
was received by each partner in proportion to the partner's percentage interest
in the Partnership. As a result of this exchange, the Partnership was dissolved
and liquidated, with all of the assets and liabilities of the Partnership
(including the SBIC license which was obtained by the Partnership in May 1992)
being thereby assigned and transferred to the Company. This transaction was
accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control, in a manner
similar to a pooling of interests. The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared on a basis appropriate for investment companies as enumerated in
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Audit and Accounting
Guide on Audits of Investment Companies.

     The Company is a specialty finance company that is primarily engaged in
making loans to small businesses. The Company's objectives are to achieve both a
high level of current income from interest on loans and fees and long-term
growth in the value of its shareholders' equity through the appreciation in
value of the equity interests in its portfolio companies that are primarily
small, privately owned companies. The Company targets small businesses that the
Company believes meet certain characteristics, including the potential for
significant growth, adequate collateral coverage, experienced management teams,
sophisticated outside equity investors and profitable operations. In addition to
making loans to small businesses, the Company makes investments in micro-cap
public companies that are marketed under the name Tandem Capital, Inc.
("Tandem") and provides merger and acquisition advisory services through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Harris Williams & Co. ("Harris Williams").

     The Company is a non-diversified, closed-end investment company, that has
elected to be treated as a business development company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Prior to August 1996, the
Company was also a small business investment company ("SBIC") licensed under the
Small Business Investment Act of 1958, as amended (the "1958 Act"). The Company
was licensed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the "SBA") on May 14,
1992. In August 1996, the Company transferred its SBIC operations, including its
SBIC license, and the majority of its assets and liabilities, to its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Sirrom Investments Inc. ("SII"), a Tennessee
corporation. Under applicable SBA regulations, SII is restricted to investing
only in qualified small business concerns in the manner contemplated by the 1958
Act. In December 1996, the Company formed Sirrom Funding Corporation ("SFC"), a
closed-end, non-diversified investment company. SFC is a bankruptcy remote
subsidiary that purchases loans and warrants from the Company on a true-sale
basis and holds them as collateral for a $100.0 million revolving credit
facility. The Company, SII and SFC have each elected to be taxed as a regulated
investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code").

     In August 1996, the Company acquired the ownership interests of Harris
Williams & Co., L.P. ("Harris Williams") for 1,796,908 shares of common stock of
the Company. After the acquisition, Harris Williams began operating as a "C"
corporation. Harris Williams is a merger and acquisition advisory services firm
located in Richmond, Virginia, that is being operated as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Harris Williams has been accounted
for as a pooling of interests. The consolidated balance sheets as of December
31, 1997 and March 31, 1998 and the consolidated statements of operations and
cash flows for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1998 reflect the operations
of Harris Williams as an unconsolidated subsidiary accounted for by the equity
method of accounting in conformity with the requirements of the 1940 Act.

     The Company has a 40% ownership interest in a Canadian company, SCC Canada
Inc., that provides loan origination and processing services for loans to
Canadian companies. The Company's ownership interest in SCC Canada Inc. is
immaterial to its financial position and is accounted for under the equity
method of accounting.

2.   INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     Certain notes and other information have been omitted form the interim
consolidated financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

3.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  Principles of Consolidation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company,
SII, SFC and SCCGS, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in the consolidation.

  Valuation of Investments

     Portfolio investments are stated at fair value as determined by the Board
of Directors.

     Under the Company's valuation policy, the fair values of loans to small
business concerns are based on the Board of Directors' evaluation of the
financial condition of the borrowers and/or the underlying collateral. The
values assigned are considered to be amounts that could be realized in the
normal course of business, assuming the Company holds the loan to maturity and
realizes the face value of the loan. Fair value normally corresponds to cost
unless the borrower's condition or external factors lead to a determination of
fair value at a higher or a lower amount.

     Equity interests and warrants for which there is not a public market are
valued based on factors such as significant equity financing by sophisticated,
unrelated new investors, history of positive cash flow from operations, the
market value of comparable publicly traded companies (discounted for
illiquidity) and other pertinent factors. The Board of Directors also considers
recent offers to purchase a portfolio company's securities and the filings of
registration statements in connection with a portfolio company's initial public
offering when valuing warrants.

     Shares of stock and warrants of public companies that the Company is not
permitted to sell in the public market as a result of securities law
restrictions, lock-up agreements and other similar restrictions are typically
valued at 80% of market value at March 31, 1998 and 70% of market value at
December 31, 1997. All other publicly traded stocks are typically valued at 95%
of market value at the balance sheet at March 31, 1998 and 90% of market value
at December 31, 1997.

     At March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997, the investment portfolio included
investments totaling $542,919,000 and $482,652,000, respectively, whose values
had been estimated by the Board of Directors in the absence of readily
ascertainable market values. Because of the inherent uncertainty of the
valuations, the estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values
that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the
differences could be material.

  Realized and Unrealized Gain or Loss on Investments

     Realized gains are recorded upon disposition of investments and are
calculated based upon the difference between the proceeds and the cost basis
determined using the specific identification method. Realized losses are
recorded upon the final disposition of the cost




                                       7

basis of investments according to federal income tax guidelines and are
calculated in the same manner. All other changes in the valuation of portfolio
investments, as determined by the directors, are included as changes in the
unrealized appreciation or depreciation of investments in the statement of
operations.

  Description of Loans Terms

     The loans to small business concerns included in investments bear interest
at rates ranging from 6.00% to 16.50%. Typically, interest is payable in monthly
or quarterly installments over five years with the entire principal amount
typically due at maturity. These loans are generally collateralized by liens on
the assets of the borrower and/or guarantees. Certain of these liens may be
subject to prior liens.

  Interest on Investments

     Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The accrual of income is
typically suspended when the related loan becomes 60 days past due unless
management anticipates that accrued amounts will be collected.

  Loan Processing Fees

     The Company recognizes loan processing fees as income when the related loan
closes.

  Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company defines cash and cash equivalents as cash on hand, cash in
interest bearing and non-interest bearing operating bank accounts and highly
liquid investments such as time deposits with an original maturity of three
months or less.

  Debt Financing Costs

     SBA debenture costs are amortized over ten years, which represents the term
of the fourteen SBA debentures (See Note 5). Financing costs related to the
revolving credit facilities are amortized over the term of the credit
agreements.

  Income Taxes

     Beginning in February 1995, the Company elected to be taxed as a RIC under
Subchapter M of the Code. If the Company, as a RIC, satisfies certain
requirements relating to the source of its income, the diversification of its
assets and the distribution of its net income, the Company is generally taxed as
a pass through entity which acts as a partial conduit of income to its
shareholders.

     In order to maintain its RIC status, the Company must, in general, (a)
derive at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest and gains from
the sale or disposition of securities, (b) meet investment diversification
requirements defined by the Code and (c) distribute to shareholders at least 90%
of its net income (other than long-term capital gains).

     The Company currently intends to meet the RIC qualifications in future
years. Therefore, the Company has not provided for federal income taxes on the
unrealized appreciation of investments.


                                       8
<PAGE>   9

  Derivative Financial Instruments

     The Company uses interest rate swaps to hedge interest costs on its
floating rate revolving credit facilities. Any amounts paid or received on
interest rate swap agreements are recognized as an adjustment to interest
expense. Gains and losses on terminated swaps are recognized over the remaining
life of the underlying obligation as an adjustment to investment income or
interest expense. The fair value of the swap agreements are not recognized in
the consolidated financial statements as they are accounted for as hedges. The
Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for trading or
speculative purposes.

     The counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements are major
commercial banks. Management believes that losses related to credit risk are
remote.

  Net Increase In Shareholders' Equity Resulting From Operations per Share

     Net increase in shareholders' equity resulting from operations per share is
calculated in accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128. Under the standards established by SFAS
No. 128, per share information is measured at two levels: basic and diluted. See
Note 9 for the Company's computation of these amounts.

  New Accounting Pronouncement

     In June 1997, the SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," was
issued. The Company has adopted this standard which requires the display of
comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. In the
Company's case, comprehensive income includes all components of the net increase
in shareholder's equity reported in the statement of operations.

  Reclassifications

     Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current
year presentation.

  Management Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4.   INVESTMENTS

     Investments consist primarily of loans made and warrants obtained from
borrowers. Investments are recorded at fair value as determined by the directors
or by current market prices, if available, in accordance with the Company's
valuation policy (See Note 3). While the Company markets to borrowers throughout
the United States, approximately 56% of the investment portfolio consists of
loans and equity investments in companies that are headquartered in the
southeastern United States and Texas.

     The aggregate cost basis of loans on non-accrual status, less realized
losses, totaled $27,717,592 and $38,066,659 at December 31, 1997 and March 31,
1998, respectively. The aggregate fair values of these loans as determined by
the Company's directors totaled $17,052,737 and $23,135,525 at December 31, 1997
and March 31, 1998, respectively.

     Included in the investment portfolio at December 31, 1997 are other assets
which consist of rights to royalty payments, a right to receive payment from a
potential arbitration settlement and certain tangible assets. Included in the
investment portfolio at March 31, 1998 are assets which consist of rights to
royalty payments and certain intangible assets. The aggregate cost of other
assets at December 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998 was $4,240,503 and $2,270,704,
respectively, which represents the cost basis of the original loans plus
capitalized workout expenses. The Company's directors have estimated the fair
value of these assets to be $2,440,503 and $330,704 at December 31, 1997 and
March 31, 1998, respectively.

</TABLE>

     The $125.0 million revolving credit facility is payable by SII to a
syndicate of lenders. The facility consists of a swingline totaling $15.0
million which bears interest at prime minus 0.5%, and the balance of the
facility bears interest at either LIBOR plus 1.75% or prime plus 0.5% at SII's
discretion. Borrowing under the facility is based on the principal amount of
eligible loans and public securities in SII's portfolio. The revolving credit
agreement imposes certain operating restrictions on the Company and SII such as
requiring lender approval of certain mergers and acquisitions, changes in
management, and payment of dividends in excess of those required to maintain RIC
status. The agreement contains financial covenants that require SII to maintain
a certain level of tangible net worth and meet ratios related to interest
coverage, non-accrual/delinquent loans and loan losses. As of March 31, 1998,
the Company and SII were in compliance with these covenants. The revolving
credit lenders and the SBA are equally secured by all assets of SII and the
revolving credit facility is guaranteed by the Company. The facility expires on
May 31, 2000.

     As of March 31, 1998, the Company had entered into an interest rate swap
agreement under the $125.0 million revolving credit facility. In the agreement,
the Company swapped the variable rate on $45.0 million in borrowings to a fixed
rate of 8.12%. This swap expires in




                                       10
<PAGE>   11

May 2000. Interest expense on the revolving credit facility, including the
interest rate swaps and a quarterly fee of .25% per annum on the total revolving
credit facility for the periods ended March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998 was
$418,734 and $1,233,719, respectively.

     At December 31, 1996 SFC entered into a $100.0 million revolving credit
facility with a financial institution. SFC purchases loans and the related
warrants originated by the Company, and funds substantially all such purchases
with borrowings under the facility. The facility is funded by commercial paper
sold by the financial institution, and bears interest at the stated rate on the
commercial paper sold plus 2.25%. SFC is generally able to borrow up to 70% of
the principal amount of conforming loans that are pledged to secure the credit
facility. At March 31, 1998, investments with a cost and fair value of
approximately $129,018,000 and $137,087,000, respectively, had been contributed
or sold to SFC by the Company and were pledged as collateral under the facility.
The facility agreement contains operational restrictions such as requiring
lender approval of certain mergers and acquisitions and changes in management.
The facility agreement also contains financial covenants related to tangible net
worth, loan delinquency and loan defaults. As of March 31, 1998, the Company and
SFC were in compliance with those covenants. The Company may borrow under the
facility until December 31, 2001, and the facility expires on January 5, 2007.

     To hedge its exposure under the $100 million revolving credit facility, in
1996 the Company entered into several interest rate swap agreements in which the
Company exchanged variable commercial paper rates on $100 million notional
amount. During the period from January 1998 through December 1999, the Company
swapped the variable commercial paper rate to a fixed rate of 6.00%. During the
period from January 2000 through December 2001, the Company put in place a
collar that caps the variable commercial paper rate at 6.95% in exchange for a
floor at 6.00%. Pursuant to the terms of the swaps, the Company was required to
post cash collateral to secure its obligations thereunder. In March 1998, a new
counterparty assumed the previous counterparty's obligations under the swaps,
and the swaps were modified to eliminate the cash collateral requirement and to
increase the cap to 7.35% during the January 2000 through December 2001 period.
These rates do not include the 2.25% fee charged by the financial institution
on amounts borrowed under the facility.

     Interest expense on the $100.0 million credit facility including the swaps
and a monthly fee of .50% per annum on the unused portion of the facility 
totaled $157,634 and $1,254,862 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and March 
31, 1998, respectively.

7.   INCOME TAXES

     For the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, the Company provided for
federal income tax at a 35% rate on undistributed realized long-term capital
gains, excise taxes at a 4% rate on undistributed taxable net investment income
as defined by the Code and undistributed realized long-term capital gains and
federal and state income taxes on Harris Williams' pre-tax income (See Note 13).
For the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, the provision for income taxes
totaled $2,309,480 and $684,337, respectively.

8.   STOCK OPTION PLANS

     Employee Stock Option Plan

     The Company's two employee stock option plans, the Amended and Restated
1994 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "1994 Plan"), and the 1996 Employee Stock
Incentive Plan, as amended (the "1996 Plan") provide for the granting of options
for up to 1,000,000 and 5,707,098 shares, respectively, of common stock to
selected employees at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of
the common stock on the date of the grant. The terms of each award are
determined by the Board of Directors. The options vest over a five year period
from the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant.

  Directors Stock Option Plan

     During 1995, the Company adopted a 1995 Stock Option Plan for
Non-Employee Directors which permits the issuance of options to purchase the
Company's common stock to non-employee directors. The Plan reserves 228,000
shares of common stock for automatic grant. Directors elected prior to December
1, 1994 will receive options to purchase 36,000 shares and directors elected
after December 1, 1994 will receive options to purchase 24,000 shares. Upon the
initial election of a future non-employee director, an option to acquire 12,000
shares of common stock will be issued to the director. Under the terms of the
Plan, the options' exercise price may not be less than the fair market value of
a share of common stock on date of grant. No options were granted in 1995. In
1996, 168,000 options were granted at an exercise price of $12.125 which were
outstanding at December 31, 1996. In 1997, 12,000 options were granted at an
exercise price of $13.968. No shares were exercised prior to

<PAGE>   13


1997, 11,600 shares were exercised during 1997 and no shares were exercised
in the first quarter of 1998. No shares have been forfeited to date.

9.  SECONDARY OFFERING

    In March 1998, the Company completed a public offering of 6,000,000 shares
of common stock at a price of $25.50 per share. The net proceeds to the Company
of the offering, after underwriting commissions and expenses, were
approximately 144,550,000.

10. NET INCREASE IN SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY PER SHARE

   The Company computes the net increase in shareholders' equity from
operations per common share-basic by dividing the net increase in shareholders'
equity from operations by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the quarter, which was 27,837,174 and 32,499,984 for the
quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, respectively. For the calculation of the
net increase in shareholders' equity from operations per common share-diluted,
the Company increases the weighted average number of shares for the potential
dilutive effect of outstanding stock options. The weighted average shares
outstanding considering the effect of the stock options outstanding was
28,923,180 and 35,000,579 for the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1998,
respectively.

    In December 1997, the Company declared a dividend derived from capital gains
totaling $5,405,267 payable in January 1998.  On March 20, 1998, the Company
paid a dividend of $7,929,151 from net investment income to shareholders of
record as of February 27, 1998.

11. STOCK SPLIT

    On January 5, 1998 the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock
split on the Company's common stock. One additional share was issued for each
share of common stock held by shareholders of record as of the close of business
on January 16, 1998. The new shares were distributed on January 30, 1998. All
references to the number of common shares and per share amounts have been
restated as appropriate to reflect the effect of the split for all periods
presented.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    As of March 31, 1998, the Company had outstanding loan commitments
totaling $10,150,000. These commitments were made in the ordinary course of the
Company's business and are generally on the same terms as loans to existing
borrowers.

    As of March 31, 1998, the Company had guaranteed letters of credit issued
by a commercial bank for one of its portfolio companies in the amount of
$1,122,800. The letters of credit expire May 13, 1998 and August 31, 1998.

    The Company has made a commitment under a joint venture agreement to fund up
to $100.0 million (in Canadian dollars) in loans to Canadian companies.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

         The Company's principal investment objectives are to achieve a high
level of income from the collection of interest and processing and financial
advisory fees and long-term growth in its shareholders' equity through the
appreciation in value of equity interests in its portfolio companies. The
Company's and SII's loans are typically made in the form of secured debt with
relatively high fixed interest rates accompanied by warrants to purchase equity
securities of the borrower. In addition to interest on investments, the Company
and SII also typically collect an up-front processing fee on each loan they
originate. Harris Williams typically obtains a monthly retainer fee for each
merger and acquisition transaction for which it is retained and, in addition, a
success fee when the transaction is consummated.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The Company's financial performance in the Statements of Operations is
comprised of four primary elements. The first is "net operating income," which
is the difference between the Company's income from interest, dividends, fees
and Harris Williams' pretax income, and its total operating expenses, including
interest expense. The second element is "realized gain (loss) on investments,"
which is the difference between the proceeds received from the disposition of
portfolio assets and their stated costs at the beginning of the period. The
third element is the "change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of
investments," which is the net change in the fair values of the Company's
portfolio assets compared with their fair values of the Company's portfolio
assets compared with their fair values at the beginning of the period or their
stated costs, as appropriate. Generally, "realized gain (loss) on investments"
and "change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments" are
inversely related in that when an appreciated asset is sold to realize a gain, a
decrease in unrealized appreciation occurs since the gain associated with the
asset is transferred from the "unrealized" category to the "realized" category.
Conversely, when a loss is realized on a depreciated portfolio asset, the
reclassification of the loss from "unrealized" to "realized" causes an increase
in unrealized appreciation and an increase in realized loss. The fourth element
is "provision for income taxes," which primarily consists of taxes owed on
retained capital gains, excise taxes on undistributed earnings and taxes on the
pre-tax income of Harris Williams.

         Net Operating Income. During the quarter ended March 31, 1998, the
Company earned interest on investments of $14.1 million, a 76.3% increase over
the $8.0 million earned in the first quarter of 1997. In addition to interest on
investments, the Company also collects an up-front processing fee for each loan
it originates. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company collected $2.0
million in processing and other fees, a 17.6% increase over the $1.7 million
collected in the first quarter of 1997. These increases in interest income and
processing and other fees are a result of increases in the dollar amount of
loans outstanding and originated during the applicable periods. The Company's
loan portfolio increased to $465.2 million at March 31, 1998, an increase of
72.0% over the $270.2 million at March 31, 1997. The $94.6 million of loans
originated during the first quarter of 1998 was a 41.0% increase over the $67.2
million of loans originated during the first quarter of 1997, and the weighted
average interest rate charged on the loan portfolio at March 31, 1998 and 1997
was 13.2%. The Company also earned income from miscellaneous sources in an
amount equal to $12,000 in the first quarter of 1998 and $18,000 in the first
quarter of 1997, primarily from interest received on loans to employees made in
connection with purchases of common stock of the Company.

         The Company's interest expense increased to $4.2 million in the first
quarter of 1998, a 100.0% increase over the $2.1 million in the same quarter of
1997. The increase in interest expense from the first quarter of 1997 to the
first quarter of 1998 was primarily attributable to increased borrowings from
the SBA and under the Company's two revolving credit facilities. The Company's
total borrowings were $132.5 million on March 31, 1998 and $90.0 million on
March 31, 1997.



                                       38
<PAGE>   39

         Overhead and amortization of borrowing costs totaled $3.0 million in
the first quarter of 1998, a 87.5% increase over the $1.6 million of such
expenses in the first quarter of 1997. These increases can be largely attributed
to the increase in the number of employees from 26 in the first quarter of 1997
to 51 in the first quarter of 1998, expansions of the Company's Nashville office
space, opening and expanding the Company's San Francisco office and opening the
Company's Stamford office. 

         During the first quarter of 1998, Harris Williams had revenues of $4.2
million, a 358.5% increase over the $916,000 in the first quarter of 1997.
During the first quarter of 1998, Harris Williams had pre-tax income of $2.0
million, a 729.9% increase over the $241,000 in pre-tax income in 1997. These
increases were due to an increase in the number of transactions in which Harris
Williams provided advisory services and a higher average fee collected on the
1998 transactions. Harris Williams provided advisory services on four
transactions that closed during the first quarter of 1998, a 100.0% increase
over the two transactions closed in the first quarter of 1997. Income taxes of
$684,377 and $72,360 were accrued on Harris Williams' pre-tax income in the
first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively.

         Realized Gain (Loss) on Investments. The Company's net realized gain on
investments was $1.2 million during the quarter ended March 31, 1998, and $4.5
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The following table sets forth the
details of realized gains and losses that occurred during the first quarter of
1998 and 1997.

         Provision for Income Taxes. Beginning in February 1995, the Company
elected to be taxed as a regulated investment company (a "RIC") under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). If the Company,
as a RIC, satisfies certain requirements relating to the source of its income,
the diversification of its assets and the distribution of its net income, the
Company is generally taxed as a pass through entity that acts as a partial
conduit of income to its shareholders. In order to maintain its RIC status, the
Company must, in general, derive at least 90% of its gross income from
dividends, interest and gains from the sale or disposition of securities; meet
investment diversification requirements defined by the Code; and distribute to
shareholders 90% of its net investment income. The Company presently intends to
meet the RIC qualifications in 1998. However, no assurance can be given that the
Company will continue to elect or qualify for such treatment after 1998.

         During the first quarter of 1998, the Company paid dividends of $13.4
million compared to the $4.4 million paid in the first quarter of 1997. Of these
dividends, $8.0 million and $4.4 million were derived from net investment income
for the first quarter of 1998 and for the first quarter of 1997, respectively,
and $5.4 million and $0 were derived from realized capital gains, respectively.
For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company modified its dividend policy
with respect to its long-term capital gains. The Company now intends to
distribute to shareholders all long-term capital gains and did so for the year
ended December 31, 1997.

         For the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, the Company provided 
for federal income tax at a 35% rate on undistributed realized long-term capital
gains, excise taxes at a 4% rate on undistributed taxable net investment income
as defined by the Code and undistributed realized long-term capital gains and
federal and state income taxes on Harris Williams' pre-tax income (See Note 13).
For the quarters ended March 31, 1997 and 1998, the provision for income taxes
totaled $2,309,480 and $684,337, respectively.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At March 31, 1998, the Company had $472,000 in cash and cash
equivalents. At March 31, 1998, the Company's investment portfolio included
investments in stocks and warrants of publicly-traded companies that had an
ascertainable market value and were being carried at a fair value of
approximately $12.0 million and represent an additional source of liquidity.
However, the Company's ability to realize such values on a short-term basis is
limited by market conditions and various securities law restrictions.

         Traditionally, the Company's principal sources of capital to fund its
portfolio growth have been borrowings through the SBA-sponsored SBIC debenture
program, sales of the Company's equity securities, both privately and publicly,
and funds borrowed from banking institutions. In February 1995, the Company
consummated its initial public offering and has completed four additional public
offerings since that time, including the public offering of 6,000,000 shares
completed in March 1998, that have generated net proceeds of $361.5 million in
the aggregate. The Company has used the proceeds of these offerings to
temporarily repay debt and to originate new loans.

         At March 31, 1998, total SBA borrowings were $101.0 million, the
maximum amount of SBA loans available to an SBIC. In March 1998, the Company
received $11.0 in funding from the SBA at an annual interest rate of 6.32%,
making it the only SBIC to have borrowed the maximum amount of funding now
available. Each borrowing from the SBA has a term of ten years, is secured by
the assets of SII, is guaranteed by the Company and can be prepaid without
penalty after five years. The average interest rate on these borrowings was 6.9%
as of March 31, 1998, and none of these borrowings mature prior to 2002.

         As of March 31, 1998, SII had $4.5 million outstanding under its $125.0
million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") with First
Union National Bank and a syndicate of other banks. The Revolving Credit
Facility is secured by a lien on all of SII's assets and a pledge of SII's stock
and guaranteed by the Company. In order to manage the interest rate risk
associated with the variable interest rate provided for under the Revolving
Credit Facility, SII has entered into various hedging arrangements. The
Revolving




                                       41
<PAGE>   42


Credit Facility matures on May 31, 2000. The Revolving Credit Facility requires
that SII obtain the lenders' consent prior to, among other things, encumbering
its assets, merging or consolidating with another entity and making investments
other than those permitted by the SBA. In addition, the Revolving Credit
Facility provides that the repayment of any amounts outstanding can be
accelerated if either George M. Miller, II, or David M. Resha ceases to be
employed by the Company.

         The Company has also established a $100.0 million credit facility (the
"ING Credit Facility") with Holland Limited Securitization, Inc., a multi-seller
commercial paper conduit sponsored by ING Baring (U.S.) Capital Markets, Inc.
(individually and collectively, "ING"). During the first quarter of 1998, the
Company obtained a commitment from ING to increase the facility to $200.0
million and expects to close on the increase during the second quarter of 1998.
Sirrom Funding Company ("SFC"), a wholly-owned, special purpose, bankruptcy
remote subsidiary of the Company, is the borrower under the ING Credit Facility.
SFC purchases loans originated by the Company and the related warrants and uses
these loans and warrants as collateral to secure borrowings from ING. SFC is
generally able to borrow up to 70% of the principal amount of conforming loans
collateralizing the ING Credit Facility. As of January 3, 1997, the Company made
an initial capital contribution to SFC of approximately $25.0 million of loans,
which served as initial collateral for the ING Credit Facility. At March 31,
1998, $27.0 million was outstanding under the ING Credit Facility and $129.0 and
$137.0 million of loans and warrants at cost and fair value, respectively, had
been contributed to or sold to SFC by the Company and were collateralizing the
ING Credit Facility. In order to manage interest rate risk associated with the
variable interest rate provided for under the ING Credit Facility, the Company
has entered into various hedging arrangements. The Company may borrow under the
ING Credit Facility until December 31, 2001, and it expires on January 5, 2007.
The ING Credit Facility is not guaranteed by the Company. However, certain
actions by the Company can trigger an event of default under the ING Credit
Facility, which will result in termination of further funding thereunder and the
application of the collateral pledged for repayment of the amounts outstanding
thereunder. In addition, the ING Credit Facility provides that an event of
default is triggered if any two of George M. Miller, II, David M. Resha and Carl
W. Stratton are no longer employed by the Company.

         The Company believes that the proceeds from the most recent completed
public offering, anticipated borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and
the increased ING Credit Facility, together with cash on hand, loan repayments
and cash flow from operations (after distributions to shareholders), will be
adequate to fund the continuing growth of the Company's investment portfolio
through the fourth quarter of 1998. In order to provide the funds necessary for
the Company to continue its growth strategy beyond that period, the Company
expects to incur, from time to time, additional short and long-term borrowings
from other sources, and to issue, in public or private transactions, its equity
and debt securities. The availability and terms of any such borrowings will
depend upon interest rate, market and other conditions. There can be no
assurances that such additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to
the Company.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER AND CREDIT QUALITY

         During the quarter ended March 31, 1998, the Company made loans to 53
companies totaling approximately $94.6 million and received repayments (either
partial or full) from 26 companies aggregating $28.6 million. During the quarter
ended March 31, 1997, the Company made loans to 50 companies totaling
approximately $67.2 million and received repayments (either partial or full)
from 10 companies aggregating $13.6 million. Since inception, the Company has
originated $693.9 million in total loans and $153.8 million, or 22.2%, have been
repaid. The Company cannot control changes in its portfolio of investments, as
borrowers have the right to prepay loans made by the Company without penalty.

         The Company has implemented a system by which it grades all loans on a
scale of 1 to 6. The system was intended to reflect the performance of the
borrower's business, as well as the collateral coverage of the loans and other
factors considered relevant. To monitor and manage the risk in the overall
portfolio, management tracks the weighted average portfolio grade. The weighted
average grade was 3.10 and 3.07 at March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
Company believes that weighted average grades between 2.75 and 3.25 represent
the current normal range for the portfolio.




                                       42
<PAGE>   43


         Loans graded 4 typically involve a borrower that is performing
marginally below expectations and the existence of short-term negative trends or
negative events that have created some concern. Loans in this category require a
proactive action plan to be executed by the borrower's management and monitored
by the responsible Company officer. A grade 4 is typically a temporary rating
that is followed by an upgrade or downgrade within six months as the borrower's
business improves or declines. As of March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company's
portfolio consisted of 20 and 17 loans, respectively, graded 4. The aggregate
principal balance of loans graded 4 at March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively,
was $42.1 million and $36.1 million, which represented 8.6% and 12.8%,
respectively, of the total portfolio balance at such dates. Since late 1995 when
the Company redefined the loan grading system to reflect management's additional
experience in monitoring its growing portfolio, the percentage of the principal
balance of loans graded 4 to the total portfolio balance has typically ranged
between 10% and 15%, with an occasional decrease to as low as 7%. The Company
believes the current percentage to be within the normal range of variability and
expects significant variability in the future in the absolute dollar amount of
loans graded 4 and in the ratio of loans graded 4 to the total portfolio
balance.

         Loans graded 5 and 6 are placed on the Company's Credit Watch List and
are serviced by a member of the Company's workout group. Loans with a grade 5
are generally in default and interest is generally not being accrued, but the
Company's management believes the borrower's management is capable of executing
a plan to return the borrower to an acceptable risk level. Loans with a grade 6
involve an unacceptable level of risk with substantial probability of loss.
These loans are on non-accrual and the Company has charged off or expects to
charge off some part of the loan. At March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had
loans to 17 companies with an aggregate principal balance of $38.1 million, and
13 companies with an aggregate principal balance of $16.0 million, respectively,
that were graded a 5 or 6 and that were not accruing interest, which represented
7.8% and 5.7%, respectively, of the total loan portfolio balance. The Company
believes that the current normal range of loans graded 5 and 6 is 6% to 10% of
the total portfolio balance. Given the nature of the Company's portfolio, the
Company expects some variability in the absolute dollar amount of the loans
graded 5 and 6 and in the ratio of loans graded 5 and 6 to the total portfolio
balance.

YEAR 2000

         The Company has reviewed the Year 2000 issue and has identified three
primary areas in which it could be affected. First, the Company utilizes two
primary software programs, one of which tracks its investment portfolio and one
of which provides accounting functions. Both software vendors have indicated to
the Company that their programs are Year 2000 compatible. Therefore, the Company
believes that it has no material exposure in this area. Second, the Company
utilizes standard cash management software provided by its commercial banks. The
Company is unaware of any potential exposure related to this software and
believes the possibility is remote that a major commercial bank would leave any
such problems unresolved. However, the Company will continue to analyze this
area in further detail in 1998. Third, the Company has begun an investigation of
the impact of the Year 2000 on its portfolio companies.  Overall, given the
size and age of its portfolio companies and the service-based industries in
which they primarily operate, the Company believes that few of its portfolio
companies will face any material issues regarding the Year 2000.  As a first
step in its investigation, the Company is surveying all portfolio companies for
their recognition of, exposure to, and plans to mitigate Year 2000 risk.  As of
March 31, 1998, 72% of the companies had responded, and to date the Company has
not identified significant issues.  The Company intends to complete the survey
during the third quarter of 1998, at which point it will determine if further
steps are required, either overall or with individual companies.

         Based on the above, the Company believes that expenditures related to
the Year 2000 will not be material.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

         The Company does not believe that its business is materially affected
by inflation, other than the impact which inflation may have on the securities
markets, the valuations of business enterprises and the relationship of such
valuations to underlying earnings, all of which could influence the value of the
Company's investments.

RISKS

         The risks inherent in the Company's business, which primarily consists
of making loans to small businesses, are set forth in the Company's most recent
Registration Statement on
