| (a) | Represents an investment that is not a “qualifying asset” under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act”). As of February 28, 2025, non-qualifying assets represent 4.0% of the Company’s portfolio at fair value. As a BDC, the Company generally has to invest at least 70% of its total assets in qualifying assets. |
| (b) |
|
| (c) | Because there is no “readily available market quotations” (as defined in the 1940 Act) for these investments, the fair values of these investments were determined using significant unobservable inputs and approved in good faith by our board of directors. These investments have been included as Level 3 in the Fair Value Hierarchy (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements). |
| (d) | These securities are either fully or partially pledged as collateral under the Company’s senior secured revolving credit facility (see Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements). |
| (e) | This investment does not have a stated interest rate that is payable thereon. As a result, the 0.00% interest rate in the table above represents the effective interest rate currently earned on the investment cost and is based on the current cash interest and other income generated by the investment. |
| (f) | As defined in the 1940 Act, this portfolio company is an “affiliate” as we own between 5.0% and 25.0% of the outstanding voting securities. Transactions during the year ended February 28, 2025 in which the issuer was an affiliate are as follows: |

Note 1. Organization
Saratoga Investment Corp. (the “Company”, “we”, “our” and “us”) is a non-diversified closed end management investment company incorporated in Maryland that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company commenced operations on March 23, 2007 as GSC Investment Corp. and completed the initial public offering (“IPO”) on March 28, 2007. The Company has elected, and intends to qualify annually, to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation from its investments.
GSC Investment, LLC (the “LLC”) was organized in May 2006 as a Maryland limited liability company. On March 21, 2007, the Company was incorporated and concurrently therewith the LLC was merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving entity, in accordance with the procedure for such merger in the LLC’s limited liability company agreement and Maryland law. In connection with such merger, each outstanding limited liability company interest of the LLC was converted into a share of common stock of the Company.
On July 30, 2010, the Company changed its name from “GSC Investment Corp.” to “Saratoga Investment Corp.” in connection with the consummation of a recapitalization transaction.
The Company is externally managed and advised by the investment adviser, Saratoga Investment Advisors, LLC (the “Manager” or “Saratoga Investment Advisors”), pursuant to an investment advisory and management agreement (the “Management Agreement”).
The Company has established wholly owned subsidiaries, SIA-AAP, Inc., SIA-ARC, Inc., SIA-Avionte, Inc., SIA-AX, Inc., SIA-G4, Inc., SIA-GH, Inc., SIA-MDP, Inc., SIA-PP Inc., SIA-SIQ, Inc., SIA-SZ, Inc., SIA-TG, Inc., SIA-TT, Inc. and SIA-Vector, Inc., which are structured as Delaware entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are intended to facilitate its compliance with the requirements to be treated as a RIC under the Code by holding equity or equity-like investments in portfolio companies organized as limited liability companies, or LLCs (or other forms of pass through entities). These entities are consolidated for accounting purposes but are not consolidated for U.S. federal income tax purposes and may incur U.S. federal income tax expenses as a result of their ownership of portfolio companies.
Our wholly owned subsidiaries, Saratoga Investment
Corp. SBIC II LP (“SBIC II LP”) and Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC III LP (“SBIC III LP”, and together with SBIC
II LP, the “SBIC Subsidiaries”), received licenses to operate as small business investment companies from the SBA on August

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), are stated in U.S. Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned special purpose financing subsidiaries, SIF II, SIF III, SBIC II LP, SBIC III LP, SIA-AAP, Inc., SIA-ARC, Inc., SIA-Avionte, Inc., SIA-AX, Inc., SIA-G4, Inc., SIA-GH, Inc., SIA-MDP, Inc., SIA-PP, Inc., SIA-SIQ, Inc., SIA-SZ, Inc., SIA-TG, Inc., SIA-TT Inc., and SIA-Vector, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All references made to the “Company,” “we,” and “us” herein include Saratoga Investment Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries, except as stated otherwise.
The Company, SIF II, SIF III, SBIC II LP, and SBIC III LP are all considered to be investment companies for financial reporting purposes and have applied the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”). There have been no changes to the Company, SIF II, SIF III, SBIC II LP, or SBIC III LP’s status as investment companies in accordance with ASC 946 during the three months ended August 31, 2025.
Principles of Consolidation
Under the investment company rules and regulations pursuant to ASC 946, the Company is precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company or controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. As a result, the consolidated financial statements of the Company include only the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company has determined that SLF JV is an
investment company under ASC 946; however, in accordance with such guidance the Company will generally not consolidate its investment
in a company other than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary. SLF JV is not a wholly owned investment company subsidiary as the
Company and TJHA each have an equal
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 income, gains (losses) and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Operating Segment
In accordance with ASC Topic 280,
Segment
Reporting
, the Company operates through two separate operating segments, with one primary core business segment and one non-core
segment, assessed as immaterial by management, resulting in only one reportable segment.
The CODM uses our consolidated net investment income and net
increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations as reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations to assess the
Company’s performance and when allocating resources. Net investment income is comprised of total investment income (“segment
revenues”), and total expenses (“total segment expenses”) and operating expenses (“segment operating
expenses”), which are considered the key segment measures of profit or loss received by the CODM. The expense categories included
in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations are fully reflective of the significant expense categories and amounts that
are regularly provided to the CODM. For the three months ended August 31, 2025 and 2024, operating expenses as defined by the CODM excluding
interest expense, totaled $
28
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments in a money market fund. The Company places its cash in financial institutions and, at times, such balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost which approximates fair value. Pursuant to Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act, the Company may not invest in another investment company, such as a money market fund, if such investment would cause the Company to:
| ● |
own more than
|
| ● |
hold securities in the investment company having an aggregate value in excess of
|
| ● |
hold securities in investment companies having an aggregate value in excess of
|
As of August 31, 2025, the Company did not exceed any of these limitations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Reserve Accounts
Cash and cash equivalents, reserve accounts include amounts held in designated bank accounts in the form of cash and short-term liquid investments in money market funds, and, at times, such balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits, representing payments received on secured investments or other reserved amounts associated with the Encina Credit Facility or the Live Oak Credit Facility held by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, SIF II and SIF III, respectively. The Company is required to use these amounts to pay interest expense, reduce borrowings, or pay other amounts in accordance with the terms of the Encina Credit Facility and the Live Oak Credit Facility.
In addition, cash and cash equivalents, reserve accounts also include amounts held in designated bank accounts, in the form of cash and short-term liquid investments in money market funds, within the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP.
The statements of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and cash and cash equivalents, reserve accounts reported within the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows:

Investment Classification
The Company classifies its investments in accordance
with the requirements of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, “control investments” are defined as investments in companies
in which the Company owns more than
29
Investment Valuation
The Company accounts for its investments at fair value in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASC 820 requires the Company to assume that its investments are to be sold or its liabilities are to be transferred at the measurement date in the principal market to independent market participants, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market, which may be a hypothetical market. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are fair valued at such market quotations obtained from independent third-party pricing services and market makers subject to any decision by the Company’s board of directors to approve a fair value determination to reflect significant events affecting the value of these investments. The Company values investments for which market quotations are not readily available at fair value as approved, in good faith, by the Company’s board of directors based on input from the Manager, the audit committee of the board of directors and a third-party independent valuation firm.
The Company undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter when valuing investments for which market quotations are not readily available, as described below:
| ● | each investment is initially valued by the responsible investment professionals of the Manager and preliminary valuation conclusions are documented, reviewed and discussed with our senior management; and |
| ● | an independent valuation firm engaged by the Company’s board of directors independently reviews a selection of these preliminary valuations each quarter so that the valuation of each investment for which market quotes are not readily available is reviewed by the independent valuation firm at least once each fiscal year. The Company uses a third-party independent valuation firm to value its investment in the subordinated notes of Saratoga Investment Corp. CLO 2013-1, Ltd. (“Saratoga CLO”), the Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO, and the Class E Notes of the SLF 2022 every quarter. |
In addition, all investments are subject to the following valuation process:
| ● | the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors reviews and approves each preliminary valuation and the Manager and independent valuation firm (if applicable) will supplement the preliminary valuation to reflect any comments provided by the audit committee; and |
| ● | the Company’s board of directors discusses the valuations and approves the fair value of each investment, in good faith, based on the input of the Manager, independent valuation firm (to the extent applicable) and the audit committee of the board of directors. |
The Company uses multiple techniques for determining fair value based on the nature of the investment and experience with those types of investments and specific portfolio companies. The selections of the valuation techniques and the inputs and assumptions used within those techniques often require subjective judgements and estimates. These techniques include market comparables, discounted cash flows and enterprise value waterfalls. Fair value is best expressed as a range of values from which the Company determines a single best estimate. The types of inputs and assumptions that may be considered in determining the range of values of the Company’s investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, market yield trend analysis and volatility in future interest rates, call and put features, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flows and other relevant factors.
The Company’s investments in the subordinated notes of Saratoga CLO, Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO and the Class E Notes of SLF 2022 are carried at fair value, which is based on a discounted cash flow valuation technique that utilizes prepayment, re-investment and loss inputs based on historical experience and projected performance, economic factors, the characteristics of the underlying cash flow, and comparable yields for equity interests in collateralized loan obligation funds, when available, as determined by the Manager and recommended to the Company’s board of directors. Specifically, the Company uses Intex cash flows, or an appropriate substitute, to form the basis for the valuation of its investment in the subordinated notes of Saratoga CLO, Class F-2-R-3 Notes of the Saratoga CLO and the Class E Notes of SLF 2022. The inputs are based on available market data and projections provided by third parties as well as management estimates. The Company uses the output from the Intex models (i.e., the estimated cash flows) to perform a discounted cash flow analysis on expected future cash flows to determine the valuation for our investment in Saratoga CLO.
30
The Company’s equity investment in SLF JV is measured using the proportionate share of the net asset value (“NAV”), or equivalent, of SLF JV as a practical expedient for fair value, provided by ASC 820. The Company’s unsecured loan investment in SLF JV is based on a discounted cash flow valuation technique.
The Company’s investments in CLO BB and CLO BBB debt have been valued using recent actual market trades or an independent pricing service. The valuation methodology of the independent pricing service includes incorporating data comprised of observable market transactions, executable bids, broker quotes from dealers with two sided markets, as well as transaction activity from comparable securities to those being valued. As the independent pricing service contemplates real-time market data and no unobservable inputs or significant judgment has been used by the Manager in the valuation of the Company’s investments in CLO BB and CLO BBB debt, such positions are considered level II assets.
Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of private investments and private companies, are inherently uncertain, they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates. The determination of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these investments existed. The Company’s NAV could be materially affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of its investments were materially higher or lower than the values that the Company ultimately realizes upon the disposal of such investments.
Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-5”) establishes a regulatory framework for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 permits boards of directors, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions, to designate the investment adviser to perform fair value determinations. Rule 2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for determining whether a fund must determine the fair value of a security. Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 31a-4”) provides for certain recordkeeping requirements associated with fair value determinations. While the Company’s board of directors has not elected to designate Saratoga Investment Advisors as the valuation designee, the Company has established policies and procedures in compliance with the applicable requirements of Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 requires recognizing all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities at fair value. The Company values derivative contracts at the closing fair value provided by the counterparty. Changes in the values of derivative contracts are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Investment Transactions and Income Recognition
Purchases and sales of investments and the related realized gains or losses are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. The Company stops accruing interest on its investments when it is determined that interest is no longer collectible. Discounts and premiums on investments purchased are accreted/amortized using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts over the life of the investment and amortization of premiums on investments up to the earliest call date.
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable
doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Accrued interest is generally reserved when a loan is placed on non-accrual status.
Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as a reduction in principal depending upon management’s judgment
regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s
judgment, are likely to remain current, although management may make exceptions to this general rule if the loan has sufficient collateral
value and is in the process of collection. At August 31, 2025 our investment in one portfolio company was on non-accrual status
with a fair value of approximately $
Interest income on our investment in the subordinated note of Saratoga CLO is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 325-40, Investments—Other, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets , based on the anticipated yield and the estimated cash flows over the projected life of the investment. Yields are revised when there are changes in actual or estimated cash flows due to changes in prepayments and/or re-investments, credit losses or asset pricing. Changes in estimated yield are recognized as an adjustment to the estimated yield over the remaining life of the investment from the date the estimated yield was changed.
31
Payment-in-Kind Interest
The Company may hold debt and preferred equity investments in its portfolio that contain a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest provision. The PIK interest, which represents contractually deferred interest added to the investment balance that is generally due at maturity, is generally recorded on an accrual basis to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected. The Company stops accruing PIK interest if it is expected that the issuer will not be able to pay all principal and interest when due. The Company restores to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current, although management may make exceptions to this general rule if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
Dividend Income
Dividend income is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when earned.
Structuring and Advisory Fee Income
Structuring and advisory fee income represents various fee income earned and received for performing certain investment structuring and advisory activities during the closing of new investments.
Other Income
Other income includes prepayment income fees, and monitoring, administration, redemption and amendment fees and is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations when earned.
Deferred Debt Financing Costs
Financing costs incurred in connection with our credit facility and notes are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the respective facility and debt securities. Financing costs incurred in connection with the SBA debentures of SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the debentures. Any discount or premium on the issuance of any debt is accreted and amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the respective debt security.
The Company presents deferred debt financing costs on the balance sheet as a contra-liability, which is a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts.
Realized Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
Upon the repayment of debt obligations that are deemed to be extinguishments, the difference between the principal amount due at maturity adjusted for any unamortized debt issuance costs is recognized as a loss (i.e., the unamortized debt issuance costs are recognized as a loss upon extinguishment of the underlying debt obligation).
Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may enter into contracts or agreements that contain indemnifications or warranties. Future events could occur that lead to the execution of these provisions against the Company. Based on its history and experience, management reasonably believes that the likelihood of such an event is remote. Therefore, the Company has not accrued any liabilities in connection with such indemnifications.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may directly or indirectly be a defendant or plaintiff in legal actions with respect to bankruptcy, insolvency or other types of proceedings. Such lawsuits may involve claims that could adversely affect the value of certain financial instruments owned by the Company.
32
Income Taxes
The Company has elected, and intends to qualify annually, to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. By meeting these requirements, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on ordinary income or capital gains timely distributed to stockholders. Therefore, no provision has been recorded for federal income taxes, except as related to the Corporate Blockers (as defined below) and long-term capital gains, when applicable.
In order to qualify as a RIC, among other requirements,
the Company generally is required to timely distribute to its stockholders at least
Depending on the level of investment company
taxable income earned in a tax year and the amount of net capital gains recognized in such tax year, the Company may choose to carry
forward investment company taxable income and net capital gains in excess of current year dividend distributions into the next tax year
and pay U.S. federal income tax, and possibly the
In accordance with U.S. Treasury regulations
and published guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), a publicly offered RIC may treat a distribution of
its own stock as counting toward its RIC distribution requirements if each stockholder may elect to receive his, her, or its entire distribution
in either cash or stock of the RIC. This published guidance indicates that the rule will apply where the aggregate amount of cash to
be distributed to all stockholders is not at least
The Company may utilize wholly owned holding companies that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes when making equity investments in portfolio companies taxed as pass-through entities to meet its source-of-income requirements as a RIC (“Corporate Blockers”). Corporate Blockers are consolidated in the Company’s U.S. GAAP financial statements and may result in current and deferred U.S. federal and state income tax expense with respect to income derived from those investments. Such income, net of applicable income taxes, is not included in the Company’s tax-basis net investment income until distributed by the Corporate Blocker, which may result in timing and character differences between the Company’s U.S. GAAP and tax-basis net investment income and realized gains and losses. Income tax expense or benefit from Corporate Blockers related to net investment income are included in total operating expenses, while any expense or benefit related to federal or state income tax originated for capital gains and losses are included together with the applicable net realized or unrealized gain or loss line item. Deferred tax assets of the Corporate Blockers are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet a “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current period. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the consolidated statements of operations. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025, February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023 the Company did not incur any interest or penalties. Although we file federal and state tax returns, our major tax jurisdiction is federal. The 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 federal tax years for the Company remain subject to examination by the IRS. At August 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, there were no uncertain tax positions. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly in the next 12 months.
33
Dividends
Dividends to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by the board of directors. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually, although we may decide to retain some or all of our net capital gains for reinvestment.
We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of our dividend distributions on behalf of our stockholders unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if our board of directors authorizes, and we declare, a cash dividend, then our stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP by the dividend record date will have their cash dividends automatically reinvested into additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving the cash dividends. We have the option to satisfy the share requirements of the DRIP through the issuance of new shares of common stock or through open market purchases of common stock by the DRIP plan administrator.
Capital Gains Incentive Fee
The Company records an expense accrual on the consolidated statements of operations relating to the capital gains incentive fee payable to the Manager, as recorded on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities when the net realized and unrealized gain on its investments exceed all net realized and unrealized capital losses on its investments, as a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to the Manager if the Company were to liquidate its investment portfolio at such time.
The actual incentive fee payable to the Manager related to capital gains will be determined and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year and only reflect those realized capital gains net of realized and unrealized losses for the period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid. This amended guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, however the Company has not elected to early adopt this provision as of the date of the financial statements contained in this report. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses , which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement in response to requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses. The new standard requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and does not believe it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or its disclosures.
Risk Management
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company manages a variety of risks, including market and credit risk. Market risk is the risk of potential adverse changes to the value of investments because of changes in market conditions such as interest rate movements and volatility in investment prices.
Credit risk is the risk of default or non-performance by portfolio companies, equivalent to the investment’s carrying amount. The Company is also exposed to credit risk related to maintaining all of its cash and cash equivalents, including those in reserve accounts, at a major financial institution and credit risk related to any of its derivative counterparties.
The Company has investments in lower rated and comparable quality unrated high yield bonds and bank loans. Investments in high yield investments are accompanied by a greater degree of credit risk. The risk of loss due to default by the issuer is significantly greater for holders of high yield securities, because such investments are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer.
34
Note 3. Investments
As noted above, the Company values all investments in accordance with ASC 820. As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between independent market participants at the measurement date.
ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability of inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide disclosures on fair value measurements according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the observability of the inputs used to determine fair values. Investments carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
| ● | Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. |
| ● | Level 2— Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Such inputs may be quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full character of the financial instrument, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market information. Investments that are generally included in this category include illiquid debt securities and less liquid, privately held or restricted equity securities, for which some level of recent trading activity has been observed. |
| ● | Level 3—Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs may be based on the Company’s own assumptions about how market participants would price the asset or liability or may use Level 2 inputs, as adjusted, to reflect specific investment attributes relative to a broader market assumption. Even if observable market data for comparable performance or valuation measures (earnings multiples, discount rates, other financial/valuation ratios, etc.) are available, such investments are grouped as Level 3 if any significant data point that is not also market observable (private company earnings, cash flows, etc.) is used in the valuation technique. We use multiple techniques for determining fair value based on the nature of the investment and experience with those types of investments and specific portfolio companies. The selections of the valuation techniques and the inputs and assumptions used within those techniques often require subjective judgements and estimates. These techniques include market comparables, discounted cash flows and enterprise value waterfalls. Fair value is best expressed as a range of values from which the Company determines a single best estimate. The types of inputs and assumptions that may be considered in determining the range of values of our investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, market yield trend analysis and volatility in future interest rates, call and put features, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flows and other relevant factors. |
In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, the Company continues to employ the valuation policy approved by the board of directors that is consistent with ASC 820 and the 1940 Act (see Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ). Consistent with our valuation policy, the Company evaluates the source of inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading, in determining fair value.

For investments utilizing a market comparables valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the market yield, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement, and a significant increase (decrease) in any of the earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) or revenue valuation multiples, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing a discounted cash flow valuation technique, a significant increase (decrease) in the discount rate, and prepayment rate, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement while a significant increase (decrease) in recovery rate, in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. For investments utilizing a market quote, third party bid or net asset value in deriving a value, a significant increase (decrease) in the market quote, bid or net asset value in isolation, would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

For loans and debt securities for which market quotations are not readily available, the Company determines their fair value based on third party indicative broker quotes, where available, or the inputs that a hypothetical market participant would use to value the security in a current hypothetical sale using a market comparables valuation technique. In applying the market comparables valuation technique, the Company determines the fair value based on such factors as market participant inputs including synthetic credit ratings, estimated remaining life, current market yield and interest rate spreads of similar securities as of the measurement date. If, in the Company’s judgment, the market comparables technique is not sufficient or appropriate, the Company may use additional techniques such as an asset liquidation or expected recovery model.
For equity securities of portfolio companies and partnership interests, the Company determines the fair value using an enterprise value waterfall valuation technique. Under the enterprise value waterfall valuation technique, the Company determines the enterprise fair value of the portfolio company and then waterfalls the enterprise value over the portfolio company’s securities in order of their preference relative to one another. To estimate the enterprise value of the portfolio company, the Company weighs some or all of the traditional market valuation techniques and factors based on the individual circumstances of the portfolio company in order to estimate the enterprise value. The techniques for performing investments may be based on, among other things: valuations of comparable public companies, recent sales of private and public comparable companies, black-scholes modeling, discounting the forecasted cash flows of the portfolio company, third party valuations of the portfolio company, considering offers from third parties to buy the company, estimating the value to potential strategic buyers and considering the value of recent investments in the equity securities of the portfolio company. For non-performing investments, the Company may estimate the liquidation or collateral value of the portfolio company’s assets and liabilities. The Company also takes into account historical and anticipated financial results.
For CLO BB and CLO BBB debt, the Company determines the fair value by using recent actual market trades or an independent pricing service. The valuation methodology of the independent pricing service includes incorporating data comprised of observable market transactions, executable bids, broker quotes from dealers with two sided markets, as well as transaction activity from comparable securities to those being valued.
The Company’s investments in Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022 are carried at fair value, which is based on a discounted cash flow valuation technique that utilizes prepayment, re-investment and loss inputs based on historical experience and projected performance, economic factors, the characteristics of the underlying cash flow, and comparable yields for equity interests in collateralized loan obligation funds similar to Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022, when available, as determined by the Manager and recommended to the Company’s board of directors. Specifically, the Company uses Intex cash flows, or an appropriate substitute, to form the basis for the valuation of the investment in Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022. The cash flows use a set of inputs including projected default rates, recovery rates, reinvestment rates and prepayment rates in order to arrive at estimated valuations. The inputs are based on available market data and projections provided by third parties as well as management estimates. The Company ran Intex models based on inputs about the refinanced Saratoga CLO’s structure and the SLF 2022 structure, including capital structure, cost of liabilities and reinvestment period. The Company uses the output from the Intex models (i.e., the estimated cash flows) to perform a discounted cash flow analysis on expected future cash flows to determine a valuation for our investments in Saratoga CLO and SLF 2022 at August 31, 2025. The inputs at August 31, 2025 for the valuation model include:
|
|
|
| ● | Recovery rate: 70% |
| ● | Discount rate: 8.0%–70.0% |
| ● | Prepayment rate: 20.0% |
| ● | Reinvestment rate / price: S+365bps / $99.00 |
The Company’s equity investment in SLF JV is measured using the proportionate share of the NAV of SLF JV, or equivalent, as practical expedient.

Since its inception the amount of expenses payable or reimbursable by the Company under the Administration Agreement has been subject

SBA Debentures
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries,
SBIC II LP and SBIC III LP, received SBIC licenses from the SBA on August 14, 2019 and September 29, 2022, respectively. Each of the
SBIC Subsidiaries provide up to $
SBICs are designed to stimulate the flow of private
equity capital to eligible small businesses. Under SBA regulations, SBICs may make loans to eligible small businesses and invest in the
equity securities of small businesses. Under present SBA regulations, eligible small businesses include businesses that have a tangible
net worth not exceeding $
The SBIC Subsidiaries are able to borrow funds from the SBA against each SBIC’s regulatory capital (which generally approximates equity capital in the respective SBIC). The SBIC Subsidiaries are subject to customary regulatory requirements including but not limited to, a periodic examination by the SBA and requirements to maintain certain minimum financial ratios and other covenants. Receipt of an SBIC license does not assure that the SBIC Subsidiaries will receive SBA-guaranteed debenture funding, which is dependent upon the SBIC Subsidiaries complying with SBA regulations and policies. The SBA, as a creditor, will have a superior claim to each SBIC Subsidiary’s assets over the Company’s stockholders and debtholders in the event that the Company liquidates such SBIC Subsidiary or the SBA exercises its remedies under the SBA-guaranteed debentures issued by the SBIC Subsidiary upon an event of default.
The Company received exemptive relief from the
SEC to permit it to exclude the debentures guaranteed by the SBA of the SBIC Subsidiaries from the definition of senior securities in
the asset coverage test under the 1940 Act. This allows the Company increased flexibility under the asset coverage requirement by permitting
it to borrow up to $

Note 12. Earnings Per Share
In accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share , basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis.
The following information sets forth the computation of the weighted average basic and diluted net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations per share for the three and six months ended August 31, 2025 and August 31, 2024 (dollars in thousands except share and per share amounts):

OVERVIEW
We are a Maryland corporation that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Our investment objective is to create attractive risk-adjusted returns by generating current income and long-term capital appreciation from our investments. We invest primarily in senior and unitranche leveraged loans and mezzanine debt issued by private U.S. middle-market companies, which we define as companies having earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of between $2 million and $50 million, both through direct lending and through participation in loan syndicates. We may also invest up to 30.0% of the portfolio in opportunistic investments in order to seek to enhance returns to stockholders. Such investments may include investments in distressed debt, which may include securities of companies in bankruptcy, foreign debt, private equity, securities of public companies that are not thinly traded and structured finance vehicles such as collateralized loan obligation funds. Although we have no current intention to do so, to the extent we invest in private equity funds, we will limit our investments in entities that are excluded from the definition of “investment company” under Section 3(c)(1) or Section 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act, which includes private equity funds, to no more than 15.0% of our net assets. We have elected and qualified to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Corporate History
We commenced operations, at the time known as GSC Investment Corp., on March 23, 2007 and completed an initial public offering of shares of common stock on March 28, 2007. Prior to July 30, 2010, we were externally managed and advised by GSCP (NJ), L.P., an entity affiliated with GSC Group, Inc. In connection with the consummation of a recapitalization transaction on July 30, 2010, as described below we engaged Saratoga Investment Advisors to replace GSCP (NJ), L.P. as our investment adviser and changed our name to Saratoga Investment Corp.
Our wholly owned subsidiaries, Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC II LP (“SBIC II LP”) and Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC III LP (“SBIC III LP”, and together with SBIC II LP, the “SBIC Subsidiaries”), received SBIC licenses from the SBA on August 14, 2019 and September 29, 2022, respectively. Each of the SBIC Subsidiaries provides up to $175.0 million in long-term capital in the form of debentures guaranteed by the SBA. With all debentures repaid to the SBA, SBIC LP’s (“SBIC LP”) license was surrendered on January 3, 2024, providing the Company access to all undistributed capital of SBIC LP, and SBIC LP subsequently merged with and into the Company. Under current SBIC regulations, for two or more SBICs under common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA debentures cannot exceed $350.0 million with at least $175.0 million in combined regulatory capital.
On June 10, 2024, we completed the fifth refinancing of the Saratoga CLO. This refinancing, among other things, did not extend the Saratoga CLO reinvestment period nor extend its legal maturity, while adjusting the interest rate of two of the existing Notes. The Issuer issued $422.5 million of notes (the “2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes”), consisting of Class A-1-R-4 and Class A-2-R-4. The 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture with the same Trustee. Proceeds of the issuance of the 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were used along with existing assets of the Saratoga CLO to redeem the existing Class A-1-R-3 and Class A-2-R-3 Notes. No other Notes were refinanced as part of this refinancing. The Saratoga CLO paid $0.5 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing.
We have formed a wholly owned special purpose entity, Saratoga Investment Funding II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SIF II”), for the purpose of entering into a senior secured revolving credit facility with Encina Lender Finance, LLC (“Encina”), supported by loans held by SIF II and pledged to Encina under the credit facility (the “Encina Credit Facility). The Encina Credit Facility closed on October 4, 2021. During the first two years following the closing date, SIF II may request an increase in the commitment amount under the Encina Credit Facility to up to $75.0 million. The terms of the Encina Credit Facility require a minimum drawn amount of $12.5 million at all times during the first six months following the closing date, which increases to the greater of $25.0 million or 50% of the commitment amount in effect at any time thereafter. The term of the Encina Credit Facility is three years. Advances under the Encina Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 4.0%, with LIBOR having a floor of 0.75%, with customary provisions related to our and Encina’s selection of a replacement benchmark rate. Concurrently with the closing of the Encina Credit Facility, all remaining amounts outstanding on our existing revolving credit facility with Madison Capital Funding, LLC were repaid and the facility was terminated. On January 27, 2023, among other things, the borrowings available under the Encina Credit Facility was increased from up to $50.0 million to up to $65.0 million, the underlying benchmark rate used to compute interest changed from LIBOR to Term SOFR for one-month tenor plus a 0.10% credit spread adjustment; the applicable effective margin rate on borrowings increased from 4.00% to 4.25% and the maturity date was extended from October 4, 2024 to January 27, 2026.
111
We have formed a wholly owned special purpose entity, Saratoga Investment Funding III LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SIF III”), for the purpose of entering into a $50.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with Live Oak Banking Company (“Live Oak”), supported by loans held by SIF III and pledged to Live Oak under the credit facility (the “Live Oak Credit Facility). The Live Oak Credit Facility closed on March 27, 2024. During the first two years following the closing date, SIF III may request an increase in the commitment amount under the Live Oak Credit Facility to up to $150.0 million. The terms of the Live Oak Credit Facility required a minimum drawn amount of $12.5 million at all times during the period ended March 27, 2025, which increased to the greater of $25.0 million or 50% of the facility amount in effect at any time thereafter. The term of the Live Oak Credit Facility is three years. Advances under the Live Oak Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin between 3.50% and 4.25% based on the Live Oak Credit Facility’s utilization. On June 14, 2024, the Live Oak Credit Facility was amended to, among other things: (i) increase the borrowings available under the Live Oak Credit Facility from up to $50.0 million to up to $75.0 million, subject to a borrowing base requirement; (ii) add new lenders to the Live Oak Credit Agreement; (iii) replace administrative agent approval with “Required Lender” (as defined in the Live Oak Credit Agreement) approval with respect to certain matters; (iv) replace Required Lender approval with 100% lender approval with respect to certain matters; and (v) change the definition of Required Lender to require the approval of at least two unaffiliated lenders.
On October 26, 2021, we entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement with TJHA JV I LLC (“TJHA”) to co-manage Saratoga Senior Loan Fund I JV LLC (“SLF JV”). SLF JV is invested in Saratoga Investment Corp Senior Loan Fund 2021-1 Ltd (“SLF 2021”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of SLF JV. SLF 2021 was formed for the purpose of making investments in a diversified portfolio of broadly syndicated first lien and second lien term loans or bonds in the primary and secondary markets.
On September 30, 2022, SLF 2021 was renamed to Saratoga Investment Corp Senior Loan Fund 2022-1, Ltd. (“SLF 2022”).
We and TJHA have equal voting interest on all material decisions with respect to SLF JV, including those involving its investment portfolio, and equal control of corporate governance. No management fee is charged to SLF JV as control and management of SLF JV is shared equally.
We and TJHA have committed to provide up to a combined $50.0 million of financing to SLF JV through cash contributions, where we provided $43.75 million and TJHA provided $6.25 million, resulting in an 87.5% and 12.5% ownership between the two parties. The financing is issued in the form of an unsecured note and equity. The unsecured note will pay a fixed-rate of 10.0% per annum and is due and payable in full on October 20, 2033. As of August 31, 2025, our and TJHA’s investment in SLF JV consisted of an unsecured note of $17.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively; and membership interest of $17.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. As of February 28, 2025, our and TJHA’s investment in SLF JV consisted of an unsecured note of $17.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively; and membership interest of $17.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. As of August 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, our investment in the unsecured note of SLF JV had a fair value of $16.8 million and $16.5 million, respectively, and our investment in the membership interests of SLF JV had a fair value of $2.9 million and $3.1 million, respectively.
SLF JV’s initial investment in SLF 2022 was in the form of an unsecured loan. The unsecured loan paid a floating rate of LIBOR plus 7.00% per annum and was paid in full on June 9, 2023. The unsecured loan was repaid in full on October 28, 2022, as part of the CLO closing.
We have determined that SLF JV is an investment company under (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”); however, in accordance with such guidance we will generally not consolidate our investment in a company other than a wholly owned investment company subsidiary. SLF JV is not a wholly owned investment company subsidiary as we and TJHA each have an equal 50% voting interest in SLF JV and thus neither party has a controlling financial interest. Furthermore, FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), concludes that in a joint venture where both members have equal decision-making authority, it is not appropriate for one member to consolidate the joint venture since neither has control. Accordingly, we do not consolidate SLF JV.
On October 28, 2022, SLF 2022 issued $402.1 million of debt through the JV CLO trust. The 2022 JV CLO Notes were issued pursuant to the JV Indenture, with the Trustee. As part of the transaction, we purchased 87.50% of the Class E Notes from SLF 2022 with a par value of $12.25 million. As of August 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, the fair value of these Class E Notes were $12.3 million and $12.3 million, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Basis of Presentation
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions affecting amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. We have identified investment valuation, revenue recognition and the recognition of capital gains incentive fee expense as our most critical accounting estimates. We continuously evaluate our estimates, including those related to the matters described below. These estimates are based on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates follows.
Investment Valuation
We account for investments at fair value in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Under ASC 820 we are required to assume that its investments are to be sold or its liabilities are to be transferred at the balance sheet date in the principal market to independent market participants, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market, which may be a hypothetical market. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are fair valued at such market quotations obtained from independent third-party pricing services and market makers subject to any decision by our board of directors to approve a fair value determination to reflect significant events affecting the value of these investments. We value investments for which market quotations are not readily available at fair value as approved, in good faith, by our board of directors based on input from Saratoga Investment Advisors (the “Manager” or “Saratoga Investment Advisors”), the audit committee of our board of directors and a third-party independent valuation firm. We use multiple techniques for determining fair value based on the nature of the investment and experience with those types of investments and specific portfolio companies. The selections of the valuation techniques and the inputs and assumptions used within those techniques often require subjective judgements and estimates. These techniques include market comparables, discounted cash flows and enterprise value waterfalls. Fair value is best expressed as a range of values from which we determine a single best estimate. The types of inputs and assumptions that may be considered in determining the range of values of our investments include the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, market yield trend analysis and volatility in future interest rates, call and put features, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flows and other relevant factors.
We undertake a multi-step valuation process each quarter when valuing investments for which market quotations are not readily available, as described below:
| ● | each investment is initially valued by the responsible investment professionals of Saratoga Investment Advisors and preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with our senior management; and |
| ● | an independent valuation firm engaged by our board of directors independently reviews a selection of these preliminary valuations each quarter so that the valuation of each investment for which market quotes are not readily available is reviewed by the independent valuation firm at least once each fiscal year. We use a third-party independent valuation firm to value our investment in the subordinated notes of Saratoga CLO and the Class F-2-R-3 Notes tranche of the Saratoga CLO every quarter. |
113
In addition, all our investments are subject to the following valuation process:
| ● | the audit committee of our board of directors reviews and approves each preliminary valuation and Saratoga Investment Advisors and an independent valuation firm (if applicable) will supplement the preliminary valuation to reflect any comments provided by the audit committee; and |
| ● | our board of directors discusses the valuations and approves the fair value of each investment, in good faith, based on the input of Saratoga Investment Advisors, independent valuation firm (to the extent applicable) and the audit committee of our board of directors. |
Our investment in Saratoga CLO is carried at fair value, which is based on a discounted cash flows that utilizes prepayment, re-investment and loss assumptions based on historical experience and projected performance, economic factors, the characteristics of the underlying cash flow, and market comparables for equity interests in collateralized loan obligation funds similar to Saratoga CLO, when available, as determined by Saratoga Investment Advisors and recommended to our board of directors. Specifically, we use Intex cash flows, or an appropriate substitute, to form the basis for the valuation of our investment in Saratoga CLO. The cash flows use a set of inputs including projected default rates, recovery rates, reinvestment rates and prepayment rates in order to arrive at estimated valuations. The inputs are based on available market data and projections provided by third parties as well as management estimates. We use the output from the Intex models (i.e., the estimated cash flows) to perform a discounted cash flow analysis on expected future cash flows to determine a valuation for our investment in Saratoga CLO.
Our investments in CLO BB and CLO BBB debt have been valued using recent actual market trades or an independent pricing service. The valuation methodology of the independent pricing service includes incorporating data comprised of observable market transactions, executable bids, broker quotes from dealers with two sided markets, as well as transaction activity from comparable securities to those being valued. As the independent pricing service contemplates real-time market data and no unobservable inputs or significant judgment has been used by the Manager in the valuation of the Company’s investments in CLO BB and CLO BBB debt, such positions are considered level II assets.
Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-5”) establishes a regulatory framework for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. Rule 2a-5 permits boards, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions, to designate the investment adviser to perform fair value determinations. Rule 2a-5 also defines when market quotations are “readily available” for purposes of the 1940 Act and the threshold for determining whether a fund must determine the fair value of a security. Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 31a-4”) provides the recordkeeping requirements associated with fair value determinations. While our board of directors has not elected to designate Saratoga Investment Advisors as the valuation designee, we have adopted certain revisions to its valuation policies and procedures in order comply with the applicable requirements of Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4.
Revenue Recognition
Income Recognition
Purchases and sales of investments and the related realized gains or losses are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. We stop accruing interest on our investments when it is determined that interest is no longer collectible. Discounts and premiums on investments purchased are accreted/amortized over the life of the respective investment using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on investments.
Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Accrued interest is generally reserved when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as a reduction in principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current, although we may make exceptions to this general rule if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.
114
Payment-in-Kind Interest
We hold debt and preferred equity investments in our portfolio that contain a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest provision. The PIK interest, which represents contractually deferred interest added to the investment balance that is generally due at maturity, is generally recorded on an accrual basis to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected. We stop accruing PIK interest if we do not expect the issuer to be able to pay all principal and interest when due.
Revenues
We generate revenue in the form of interest income and capital gains on the debt investments that we hold and capital gains, if any, on equity interests that we may acquire. We expect our debt investments, whether in the form of leveraged loans or mezzanine debt, to have terms of up to ten years, and to bear interest at either a fixed or floating rate. Interest on debt will be payable generally either quarterly or semi-annually. In some cases, our debt or preferred equity investments may provide for a portion or all of the interest to be PIK. To the extent interest is PIK, it will be payable through the increase of the principal amount of the obligation by the amount of interest due on the then-outstanding aggregate principal amount of such obligation. The principal amount of the debt and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring, amendment, redemption or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance or investment management services and possibly consulting fees. Any such fees will be generated in connection with our investments and recognized as earned. We may also invest in preferred equity or common equity securities that pay dividends on a current basis.
On January 22, 2008, we entered into a collateral management agreement with Saratoga CLO, pursuant to which we act as its collateral manager. The Saratoga CLO was refinanced in October 2013 and November 2016 with its reinvestment period extended to October 2016 and October 2018, respectively.
On December 14, 2018, we completed a third refinancing and upsize of the Saratoga CLO. The third Saratoga CLO refinancing, among other things, extended its reinvestment period to January 2021, and extended its legal maturity date to January 2030, and added a non-call period of January 2020. Following this refinancing, the Saratoga CLO portfolio increased its aggregate principal amount from approximately $300.0 million to approximately $500.0 million of predominantly senior secured first lien term loans. In addition to refinancing its liabilities, we invested an additional $13.8 million in all of the newly issued subordinated notes of the Saratoga CLO and also purchased $2.5 million in aggregate principal amount of the Class F-R-2 and $7.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Class G-R-2 notes tranches at par, with a coupon of 3M USD LIBOR plus 8.75% and 3M USD LIBOR plus 10.00%, respectively. As part of this refinancing, we also redeemed our existing $4.5 million aggregate amount of the Class F notes tranche at par and the $20.0 million CLO 2013-1 Warehouse Loan was repaid.
On February 11, 2020, we entered into an unsecured loan agreement (“CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2 Loan”) with Saratoga Investment Corp. CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2, Ltd (“CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Saratoga CLO, which was fully repaid during the fourth quarter ended February 28, 2021.
On February 26, 2021, we completed the fourth refinancing of the Saratoga CLO. This refinancing, among other things, extended the Saratoga CLO reinvestment period to April 2024, extended its legal maturity to April 2033, and added a non-call period of February 2022. In addition, and as part of the refinancing, the Saratoga CLO was upsized from $500 million in assets to approximately $650 million. As part of this refinancing and upsizing, we invested an additional $14.0 million in all of the newly issued subordinated notes of the Saratoga CLO, and purchased $17.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the Class F-R-3 Notes tranche at par. Concurrently with the fourth refinancing of the Saratoga CLO, the existing $2.5 million of Class F-R-2 Notes, $7.5 million of Class G-R-2 Notes and $25.0 million of the CLO 2013-1 Warehouse 2 Loan were repaid. We also paid $2.6 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing and upsizing on behalf of the Saratoga CLO, to be reimbursed from future equity distributions. At August 31, 2021, the outstanding receivable of $2.6 million was repaid in full.

On August 9, 2021, we exchanged our existing $17.9 million Class F-R-3 Notes for $8.5 million Class F-1-R-3 Notes and $9.4 million Class F-2-R-3 Notes at par. On August 11, 2021, we sold our Class F-1-R-3 Notes to third parties, resulting in a realized loss of $0.1 million.
On June 10, 2024, we completed our fifth refinancing of the Saratoga CLO, which adjusted the interest rate of two of the existing Notes. Saratoga CLO issued $422.5 million notes (the “2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes”), consisting of Class A-1-R-4 and Class A-2-R-4. The 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were issued pursuant to the indenture with the same trustee. Proceeds of the issuance of the 2013-1 2024 Reset CLO Notes were used along with existing assets of the Saratoga CLO to redeem the existing Class A-1-R-3 and Class A-2-R-3 Notes. No other Notes were refinanced as part of this refinancing. The Saratoga CLO paid $0.5 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing.
The Saratoga CLO remains effectively 100% owned and managed by Saratoga Investment Corp. We receive a base management fee of 0.10% per annum and a subordinated management fee of 0.40% per annum of the outstanding principal amount of Saratoga CLO’s assets, paid quarterly to the extent of available proceeds.
Following the third refinancing and the issuance of the 2013-1 Reset CLO Notes on December 14, 2018, we are no longer entitled to an incentive management fee equal to 20.0% of excess cash flow to the extent the Saratoga CLO subordinated notes receive an internal rate of return paid in cash equal to or greater than 12.0%.
Interest income on our investment in Saratoga CLO is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 325-40, Investments—Other, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets , based on the anticipated yield and the estimated cash flows over the projected life of the investment. Yields are revised when there are changes in actual or estimated cash flows due to changes in prepayments and/or re-investments, credit losses or asset pricing. Changes in estimated yield are recognized as an adjustment to the estimated yield over the remaining life of the investment from the date the estimated yield was changed.
On October 26, 2021, we and TJHA entered into the LLC Agreement to co-manage SLF JV. SLF JV is invested in Saratoga Investment Corp Senior Loan Fund 2022-1, Ltd (“SLF 2021”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of SLF JV. SLF 2021 was formed for the purpose of making investments in a diversified portfolio of broadly syndicated first lien and second lien term loans or bonds in the primary and secondary markets.
We and TJHA have equal voting interest on all material decisions with respect to SLF JV, including those involving its investment portfolio, and equal control of corporate governance. No management fee is charged to SLF JV as control and management of SLF JV is shared equally.
We and TJHA have committed to provide up to a combined $50.0 million of financing to SLF JV through cash contributions, with us providing $43.75 million and TJHA providing $6.25 million, resulting in 87.5% and 12.5% ownership between the two parties. The financing is issued in the form of an unsecured note and equity. The unsecured note pays a fixed-rate of 10% per annum and is due and payable in full on October 20, 2033.
We record interest income from its investment in an unsecured loan with SLF JV on an accrual basis and records dividend income from its membership interest when earned. All operating decisions are shared with a 50% voting interest in SLF JV

Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of investment advisory and management fees, professional fees, directors and officers insurance, fees paid to directors who are not “interested persons” (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Company (“independent directors”) and administrator expenses, including our allocable portion of our administrator’s overhead. Our investment advisory and management fees compensate our Manager for its work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, including those relating to:
| ● | organization; |
| ● | calculating our net asset value (“NAV”) (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firm); |
| ● | expenses incurred by our Manager payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisers, in monitoring our financial and legal affairs and in monitoring our investments and performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies; |
| ● | expenses incurred by our Manager payable for travel and due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies; |
| ● | interest payable on debt, if any, incurred to finance our investments; |
| ● | offerings of our common stock and other securities; |
| ● | investment advisory and management fees; |
| ● | fees payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisers, relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments; |

117
The terms of the investment advisory and management agreement with Saratoga Investment Advisors, our current investment adviser, are substantially similar to the terms of the investment advisory and management agreement we had entered into with GSCP (NJ), L.P., our former investment adviser, except for the following material distinctions in the fee terms:
| ● | The capital gains portion of the incentive fee was reset with respect to gains and losses from May 31, 2010, and therefore losses and gains incurred prior to such time will not be taken into account when calculating the capital gains fee payable to Saratoga Investment Advisors and, as a result, Saratoga Investment Advisors will be entitled to 20.0% of net gains that arise after May 31, 2010. In addition, the cost basis for computing realized gains and losses on investments held by us as of May 31, 2010 equal the fair value of such investment as of such date. Under the investment advisory and management agreement with our former investment adviser, GSCP (NJ), L.P., the capital gains fee was calculated from March 21, 2007, and the gains were substantially outweighed by losses. |
| ● | Under the “catch up” provision, 100.0% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income that exceeds 1.875% but is less than or equal to 2.344% in any fiscal quarter is payable to Saratoga Investment Advisors. This will enable Saratoga Investment Advisors to receive 20.0% of all net investment income as such amount approaches 2.344% in any quarter, and Saratoga Investment Advisors will receive 20.0% of any additional net investment income. Under the investment advisory and management agreement with our former investment adviser, GSCP (NJ), L.P. only received 20.0% of the excess net investment income over 1.875%. |
| ● | We will no longer have deferral rights regarding incentive fees in the event that the distributions to stockholders and change in net assets is less than 7.5% for the preceding four fiscal quarters. |
Capital Gains Incentive Fee
We record an expense accrual relating to the capital gains incentive fee payable by us to the Manager when the unrealized gains on its investments exceed all realized capital losses on its investments given the fact that a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to the Manager if we were to liquidate our investment portfolio at such time. The actual incentive fee payable to our Manager related to capital gains will be determined and payable in arrears at the end of each fiscal year and will include only realized capital gains for the period.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires additional disaggregated information on income taxes paid. This amended guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, however the Company has not elected to early adopt this provision as of the date of the financial statements contained in this report. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses , which requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement in response to requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses. The new standard requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and do not believe it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or its disclosures.

At August 31, 2025, our investment in the subordinated notes of Saratoga CLO, a collateralized loan obligation fund, had a fair value of $0.1 million and constituted 0.01% of our portfolio. This investment constitutes a first loss position in a portfolio that, as of August 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, was composed of $462.9 million and $527.1 million, respectively, in aggregate principal amount of primarily senior secured first lien term loans. In addition, as of August 31, 2025, we also own $9.4 million in aggregate principal of the F-2-R-3 Notes in the Saratoga CLO, which only rank senior to the subordinated notes.
This investment is subject to unique risks. (See Part 1. Item 1A. Risk Factors—“Our investment in Saratoga CLO constitutes a leveraged investment in a portfolio of subordinated notes representing the lowest-rated securities issued by a pool of predominantly senior secured first lien term loans and is subject to additional risks and volatility. All losses in the pool of loans will be borne by our subordinated notes and only after the value of our subordinated notes is reduced to zero will the higher-rated notes issued by the pool bear any losses.” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025).
We do not consolidate the Saratoga CLO portfolio in our consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the metrics below do not include the underlying Saratoga CLO portfolio investments. However, at August 31, 2025, $415.4 million or 96.7% of the Saratoga CLO portfolio investments in terms of market value had a CMR (as defined below) color rating of green or yellow and 10 Saratoga CLO portfolio investments were in default with a fair value of $11.5 million. At February 28, 2025, $484.3 million or 98.4% of the Saratoga CLO portfolio investments in terms of market value had a CMR color rating of green or yellow and eight of the Saratoga CLO portfolio investments were in default with a fair value of $4.4 million. For more information relating to the Saratoga CLO, see the audited financial statements for Saratoga in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025.
Saratoga Investment Advisors normally grades all of our investments using a credit and monitoring rating system (“CMR”). The CMR consists of a single component: a color rating. The color rating is based on several criteria, including financial and operating strength, probability of default, and restructuring risk. The color ratings are characterized as follows: (Green)—performing credit; (Yellow)—underperforming credit; (Red)—in principal payment default and/or expected loss of principal.

For the three months ended August 31, 2025, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $13.3 million. Based on 15,775,387 weighted average common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2025, our per share net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $0.84 for the three months ended August 31, 2025. For the three months ended August 31, 2024, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $13.3 million. Based on 13,726,142 weighted average common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2024, our per share net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $0.97 for the three months ended August 31, 2024.
For the six months ended August 31, 2025, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $27.2 million. Based on 15,560,114 weighted average common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2025, our per share net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $1.75 for the six months ended August 31, 2025. For the six months ended August 31, 2024, we recorded a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of $19.9 million. Based on 13,704,759 weighted average common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2024, our per share net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $1.45 for the six months ended August 31, 2024.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We intend to continue to generate cash primarily from cash flows from operations, including interest earned from our investments in debt in middle-market companies, interest earned from the temporary investment of cash in U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less, the Encina Credit Facility and the Live Oak Credit Facility, our continued access to the SBA debentures future borrowings and future offerings of debt and equity securities.
Although we expect to fund the growth of our investment portfolio through the net proceeds from future equity offerings, including our dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), our equity ATM Program (as defined below), and issuances of senior securities or future borrowings, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, we cannot assure you that our plans to raise capital will be successful. In this regard, because our common stock has historically traded at a price below our current NAV per share and we are limited in our ability to sell our common stock at a price below NAV per share, we have been and may continue to be limited in our ability to raise equity capital.
In addition, we intend to distribute to our stockholders substantially all of our operating taxable income in order to satisfy the distribution requirement applicable to RICs under the Code. In satisfying this distribution requirement, in accordance with certain applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury regulations and a revenue procedure issued by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), a RIC may treat a distribution of its own stock as fulfilling its RIC distribution requirements if each stockholder may elect to receive his or her entire distribution in either cash or stock of the RIC subject to a limitation that the aggregate amount of cash to be distributed to all stockholders must be at least 20% of the aggregate declared distribution. We may rely on the revenue procedure in future periods to satisfy our RIC distribution requirement.
Also, as a BDC, we generally are required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to total senior securities, which include all of our borrowings and any outstanding preferred stock, of at least 200%, reduced to 150% effective April 16, 2019 following the approval received from our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, on April 16, 2018. This requirement limits the amount that we may borrow. Our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, was 166.6% as of August 31, 2025 and 162.9% as of February 28, 2025. To fund growth in our investment portfolio in the future, we anticipate needing to raise additional capital from various sources, including the equity markets and other public and private debt-related markets, which may or may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.
Consequently, we may not have the funds or the ability to fund new investments, to make additional investments in our portfolio companies, to fund our unfunded commitments to portfolio companies, to pay dividends or to repay borrowings. Also, the illiquidity of our portfolio investments may make it difficult for us to sell these investments when desired and, if we are required to sell these investments, we may realize significantly less than their recorded value.
Due to the diverse capital sources available to us at this time, we believe we have adequate liquidity to support our near-term capital requirements.
Encina Credit Facility
Below is a summary of the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facility we entered into with Encina Lender Finance, LLC on October 4, 2021.
Commitment . We entered into the Credit and Security Agreement (the “Encina Credit Agreement”) relating to the Encina Credit Facility in the initial facility amount of $50.0 million (the “Encina Facility Amount”).
130
Availability . We can draw up to the lesser of (i) the Encina Facility Amount and (ii) the borrowing base. The borrowing base is an amount equal to (i) the difference of (A) the product of the applicable advance rate which varies from 50.0% to 75.0% depending on the type of loan asset (Defaulted Loans being excluded in that they carry an advance rate of 0%) and the value, determined in accordance with the Encina Credit Facility (the “Adjusted Borrowing Value”), of certain “eligible” loan assets pledged as security for the loan (the “Borrowing Base Value”) and (B) the Excess Concentration Amount, as calculated in accordance with the Encina Credit Facility, plus (ii) any amounts held in the Prefunding Account and, without duplication, Excess Cash held in the Collection Account, less (iii) the product of (a) the amount of any undrawn funding commitments we have under any loan asset and (b) the Unfunded Exposure Haircut Percentage, and less (iv) $100,000. Each loan asset we held as of the date on which the Encina Credit Facility was closed was valued as of that date and each loan asset that we acquire after such date will be valued at the lowest of its fair value, its face value (excluding accrued interest) and the purchase price paid for such loan asset. Adjustments to the value of a loan asset will be made to reflect, among other things and under certain circumstances, changes in its fair value, a default by the obligor on the loan asset, insolvency of the obligor, acceleration of the loan asset, and certain modifications to the terms of the loan asset.
The Encina Credit Facility contains limitations on the type of loan assets that are “eligible” to be included in the borrowing base and as to the concentration level of certain categories of loan assets in the borrowing base such as restrictions on geographic and industry concentrations, asset size and quality, payment frequency, status and terms, average life, and collateral interests. In addition, if an asset is to remain an “eligible” loan asset, we may not make changes to the payment, amortization, collateral and certain other terms of the loan assets without the consent of the administrative agent that will either result in subordination of the loan asset or be materially adverse to the lenders.
The Encina Credit Facility requires certain minimum drawn amounts. For the period beginning on the closing date and ending April 4, 2022, the minimum funding amount was $12.5 million. For the period beginning on April 5, 2022 through maturity, the minimum funding amount is the greater of $25.0 million and 50% of the Encina Facility Amount in effect from time to time.
Collateral . The Encina Credit Facility is secured by assets of Saratoga Investment Funding II LLC (“SIF II”) and pledged to Encina under the Encina Credit Facility. SIF II is a wholly owned special purpose entity formed for the purpose of entering into the Encina Credit Facility.
Interest Rate and Fees . Under the Encina Credit Facility, funds were borrowed from or through certain lenders at the greater of the prevailing LIBOR rate and 0.75%, plus an applicable margin of 4.00%. The Encina Credit Agreement includes benchmark replacement provisions which permit the Administrative Agent and the borrower to select a replacement rate upon the unavailability of LIBOR. In addition, we pay the lenders a commitment fee of 0.75% per year (or 0.50% if the ratio of advances outstanding to aggregate commitments is greater than or equal to 50%) on the unused amount of the Encina Credit Facility for the duration of the term of the Encina Credit Facility. Accrued interest and commitment fees are payable monthly in arrears. We were also obligated to pay certain other fees to the lenders in connection with the closing of the Encina Credit Facility.
Collateral Tests . It is a condition precedent to any borrowing under the Encina Credit Facility that the principal amount outstanding under the Encina Credit Facility, after giving effect to the proposed borrowings, not exceed the borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base Test”). In addition to satisfying the Borrowing Base Test, the following tests must also be satisfied (together with Borrowing Base Test, the “Collateral Tests”):
| ● | Interest Coverage Ratio. The ratio (expressed as a percentage) of interest collections with respect to pledged loan assets, less certain fees and expenses relating to the Encina Credit Facility, to accrued interest and commitment fees payable to the lenders under the Encina Credit Facility for the last 6 payment periods must equal at least 175.0%. |
| ● | Overcollateralization Ratio. The ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the aggregate Adjusted Borrowing Value of “eligible” pledged loan assets plus the fair value of certain ineligible pledged loan assets (in each case, subject to certain adjustments) to outstanding borrowings under the Encina Credit Facility plus the Unfunded Exposure Amount must equal at least 200.0%. |
The Encina Credit Facility also may require payment of outstanding borrowings or replacement of pledged loan assets upon our breach of our representation and warranty that pledged loan assets included in the borrowing base are “eligible” loan assets. Such ineligible collateral loans will be excluded from the calculation of the borrowing base and may lead to a Borrowing Base Deficiency, which may be cured by effecting one or more (or any combination thereof) of the following actions: (A) deposit into or credit to the collection account cash and eligible investments, (B) repay outstanding borrowings (together with certain costs and expenses), (C) sell or substitute loan assets in accordance with the Encina Credit Facility, or (D) pledge additional loan assets as collateral. Compliance with the Collateral Tests is also a condition to the discretionary sale of pledged loan assets by us.
131
Priority of Payments . The priority of payments provisions of the Encina Credit Facility require, after payment of specified fees and expenses, that collections of interest from the loan assets and, to the extent that these are insufficient, collections of principal from the loan assets, be applied on each payment date to payment of outstanding borrowings if the Borrowing Base Test, the Overcollateralization Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio would not otherwise be met.
Operating Expenses . The priority of payments provision of the Encina Credit Facility provides for the payment of certain of our operating expenses out of collections on interest and principal in accordance with the priority established in such provision. The operating expenses payable pursuant to the priority of payment provisions is limited to $200,000 per annum.
Covenants; Representations and Warranties; Events of Default . The Encina Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default. The Encina Credit Agreement does not contain grace periods for breach by us of any negative covenants or of certain of the affirmative covenants, including, without limitation, those related to preservation of the existence and separateness of the Company. Other events of default under the Encina Credit Agreement include, among other things, the following:
| ● | our failure to maintain an Interest Coverage Ratio of less than 175%; |
| ● | our failure to maintain an Overcollateralization Ratio of less than 200%; |
| ● | the filing of certain ERISA or tax liens on our assets or the Equity holder; |
| ● | failure by Specified Holders to collectively, directly or indirectly, own and control at least 51% of the outstanding equity interests of Saratoga Investment Advisor, or (y) possess the right to elect (through contract, ownership of voting securities or otherwise) at all times a majority of the board of directors (or similar governing body) of Saratoga Investment Advisor and to direct the management policies and decisions of Saratoga Investment Advisor, or (ii) the dissolution, termination or liquidation in whole or in part, transfer or other disposition, in each case, of all or substantially all of the assets of, Saratoga Investment Advisor; |
| ● | indictment or conviction of Saratoga Investment Advisors or any “key person” for a felony offense, or any fraud, embezzlement or misappropriation of funds by Saratoga Investment Advisors or any “key person” and, in the case of “key persons,” without a reputable, experienced individual reasonably satisfactory to Encina Lender Finance appointed to replace such key person within 30 days; |
| ● | resignation, termination, disability or death of a “key person” or failure of any “key person” to provide active participation in Saratoga Investment Advisors’ daily activities, all without a reputable, experienced individual reasonably satisfactory to Encina Lender Finance appointed within 30 days. |
Fees and Expenses . We paid certain fees and reimbursed Encina Lender Finance, LLC for the aggregate amount of all documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of lawyers, incurred by Encina Lender Finance, LLC in connection with the Encina Credit Facility and the carrying out of any and all acts contemplated thereunder up to and as of the date of closing. These amounts totaled $1.4 million.
On January 27, 2023, we entered into the first amendment to the Encina Credit Agreement to, among other things:
| ● | increased the borrowings available under the Encina Credit Facility from up to $50.0 million to up to $65.0 million; |
| ● | changed the underlying benchmark used to compute interest under the Encina Credit Agreement from LIBOR to Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus a 0.10% credit spread adjustment; |
| ● | increased the applicable effective margin rate on borrowings from 4.00% to 4.25%; |
| ● | extended the revolving period from October 4, 2024 to January 27, 2026; |
132
| ● | extended the period during which the borrower may request one or more increases in the borrowings available under the Encina Credit Facility (each such increase, a “Facility Increase”) from October 4, 2023 to January 27, 2025, and increased the maximum borrowings available pursuant to the Encina Facility Increase from $75.0 million to $150.0 million; |
| ● | revised the eligibility criteria for eligible collateral loans to exclude certain industries in which an obligor or related guarantor may be involved; and |
| ● | amended the provisions permitting the borrower to request an extension in the Commitment Termination Date (as defined in the Encina Credit Agreement) to allow requests to extend any applicable Commitment Termination Date, rather than a one-time request to extend the original Commitment Termination Date, subject to a notice requirement. |
As of August 31, 2025, we had $32.5 million outstanding borrowings under the Encina Credit Facility. Our borrowing base under the Encina Credit Facility at August 31, 2025 was $78.4 million.
Live Oak Credit Facility
Below is a summary of the terms of the senior secured revolving credit facility we entered into with Live Oak Banking Company on March 27, 2024.
Commitment. We entered into the Credit and Security Agreement (the “Live Oak Credit Agreement”) relating to the Live Oak Credit Facility in the initial facility amount of $50.0 million (the “Live Oak Facility Amount”).
Availability . We can draw up to the lesser of (i) the Live Oak Facility Amount and (ii) the borrowing base. The borrowing base is an amount equal to (i) the difference of (A) the product of the applicable advance rate which varies from 50.0% to 75.0% depending on the type of loan asset (Defaulted Loans being excluded in that they carry an advance rate of 0%) and the value, determined in accordance with the Encina Credit Facility (the “Adjusted Borrowing Value”), of certain “eligible” loan assets pledged as security for the loan (the “Borrowing Base Value”) and (B) the Excess Concentration Amount, as calculated in accordance with the Encina Credit Facility, plus (ii) any amounts held in the Prefunding Account and, without duplication, Excess Cash held in the Collection Account, less (iii) the product of (a) the amount of any undrawn funding commitments we have under any loan asset and (b) the Unfunded Exposure Haircut Percentage, and less (iv) $100,000. Each loan asset we held as of the date on which the Live Oak Credit Facility was closed was valued as of that date and each loan asset that we acquire after such date will be valued at the lowest of its fair value, its face value (excluding accrued interest) and the purchase price paid for such loan asset. Adjustments to the value of a loan asset will be made to reflect, among other things and under certain circumstances, changes in its fair value, a default by the obligor on the loan asset, insolvency of the obligor, acceleration of the loan asset, and certain modifications to the terms of the loan asset.
The Live Oak Credit Facility contains limitations on the type of loan assets that are “eligible” to be included in the borrowing base and as to the concentration level of certain categories of loan assets in the borrowing base such as restrictions on geographic and industry concentrations, asset size and quality, payment frequency, status and terms, average life, and collateral interests. In addition, if an asset is to remain an “eligible” loan asset, we may not make changes to the payment, amortization, collateral and certain other terms of the loan assets without the consent of the administrative agent that will either result in subordination of the loan asset or be materially averse to the lenders.
133
The Live Oak Credit Facility requires certain minimum drawn amounts. For the period beginning on the closing date of March 27, 2025, and ending March 27, 2027, the minimum funding amount was $12.5 million.

In addition, we pay the lenders a commitment fee of 0.50% per year on the unused amount of the Live Oak Credit Facility for the duration of the term of the Live Oak Credit Facility. Accrued interest and commitment fees are payable monthly in arrears. We were also obligated to pay certain other fees to the lenders in connection with the closing of the Live Oak Credit Facility.
Collateral Tests.

These amounts totaled $0.8 million.
As of August 31, 2025 there was $37.5 million in outstanding borrowings under the Live Oak Credit Facility. During the applicable period, we were in compliance with all of the limitations and requirements under the Live Oak Credit Agreement. Our borrowing base under the Live Oak Credit Facility at August 31, 2025 was $77.3 million
SBA-guaranteed debentures
In addition, we, through two current wholly owned subsidiaries, sought and obtained licenses from the SBA to operate an SBIC. In this regard, our wholly owned subsidiaries, SBIC II LP, and SBIC III LP, received an SBIC license from the SBA on August 14, 2019, and September 29, 2022, respectively. SBICs are designated to stimulate the flow of private equity capital to eligible small businesses. Under SBA regulations, SBICs may make loans to eligible small businesses and invest in the equity securities of small businesses. Our wholly owned subsidiary SBIC LP fully repaid its outstanding debentures and subsequently surrendered its license to the SBA on January 3, 2023, and SBIC LP subsequently merged with and into the Company.
The SBIC license allows our SBIC Subsidiaries to obtain leverage by issuing SBA-guaranteed debentures. SBA-guaranteed debentures are non-recourse, interest only debentures with interest payable semi-annually and have a ten-year maturity. The principal amount of SBA-guaranteed debentures is not required to be paid prior to maturity but may be prepaid at any time without penalty. The interest rate of SBA-guaranteed debentures is fixed on a semi-annual basis at a market-driven spread over U.S. Treasury Notes with 10-year maturities.
The SBIC Subsidiaries are regulated by the SBA. SBA regulations currently limit the amount that our SBIC Subsidiaries may individually borrow up to a maximum of $175.0 million of SBA debentures if the SBIC Subsidiary has at least $87.5 million in regulatory capital, subject to the SBA’s approval. Under current SBIC regulations, for two or more SBICs under common control, the maximum amount of outstanding SBA debentures cannot exceed $350.0 million. The SBIC Subsidiaries are able to borrow funds from the SBA against regulatory capital (which generally approximates equity capital in the respective SBIC) and is subject to customary regulatory requirements, including, but not limited to, periodic examination by the SBA.
135
We received exemptive relief from the SEC to permit us to exclude the debt of our SBIC Subsidiaries guaranteed by the SBA from the definition of senior securities in the asset coverage test under the 1940 Act. This allows us increased flexibility under the asset coverage test by permitting us to borrow up to $350.0 million more than we would otherwise be able to absent the receipt of this exemptive relief. On April 16, 2018, as permitted by the Small Business Credit Availability Act, which was signed into law on March 23, 2018, our board of directors, including a majority of our independent directors, approved of our becoming subject to a minimum asset coverage ratio of 150% from 200% under Sections 18(a)(1) and 18(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act, as amended. The 150% asset coverage ratio became effective on April 16, 2019.
As of August 31, 2025 SBIC II LP had $87.5 million in regulatory capital and $131.0 million in SBA-guaranteed debentures outstanding and SBIC III LP had $87.5 million in regulatory capital and $39.0 million in SBA-guaranteed debentures outstanding.
Unsecured notes
7.75% 2025 Notes
On July 9, 2020, we issued $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 7.75% fixed-rate notes due in 2025 (the “7.75% 2025 Notes”) for net proceeds of $4.8 million after deducting underwriting commissions of approximately $0.2 million.

6.25% 2027 Notes
On December 29, 2020, we issued $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.25% fixed-rate notes due in 2027 (the “6.25% 2027 Notes”). Offering costs incurred were approximately $0.1 million.

Off-balance sheet arrangements
As of August 31, 2025 and February 28, 2025, our off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of $96.2 million and $126.7 million, respectively, of unfunded commitments outstanding to provide debt financing to its portfolio companies or to fund limited partnership interests. Such commitments are generally up to our discretion to approve, or the satisfaction of certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in our consolidated statements of assets and liabilities and are not reflected in our consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

We believe our assets will provide adequate coverage to satisfy these unfunded commitments. As of August 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $105.7 million and $32.5 million in available borrowings under the Encina Credit Facility, and $37.5 million in available borrowings under the Live Oak Credit Facility.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our business activities contain elements of market risk. We consider the fluctuation in interest rates to be our principal market risk. Managing this risk is essential to our business. Accordingly, we have systems and procedures designed to identify and analyze our risks, to establish appropriate policies and thresholds and to continually monitor this risk and thresholds by means of administrative and information technology systems and other policies and processes.
Interest rate risk is defined as the sensitivity of our current and future earnings to interest rate volatility, including relative changes in different interest rates, variability of spread relationships, the difference in re-pricing intervals between our assets and liabilities and the effect that interest rates may have on our cash flows. Changes in the general level of interest rates can affect our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest earning assets and our interest expense incurred in connection with our interest-bearing debt and liabilities. Changes in interest rates can also affect, among other things, our ability to acquire leveraged loans, high yield bonds and other debt investments and the value of our investment portfolio.
148
Our investment income is affected by fluctuations in various interest rates, including SOFR and the prime rate. Substantially all of our portfolio is, and we expect will continue to be, comprised of floating rate investments that utilize SOFR or an alternate rate. The Federal Reserve cut interest rates in the third quarter of 2025, after holding rates steady in the first and second quarters of 2025. The Federal Reserve has indicated that there may be additional rate cuts in the future; however, future reductions to benchmark rates are not certain. In an elevated interest rate environment, our cost of funds would increase, which could reduce our net investment income if there was not a corresponding increase in interest income generated by our investment portfolio. It is possible that the Federal Reserve’s tightening cycle could result in a recession in the United States, which would likely decrease interest rates. A prolonged reduction in interest rates will reduce our gross investment income and could result in a decrease in our net investment income if such decreases in base rates, such as SOFR, are not offset by corresponding increases in the spread over such base rates that we earn on any portfolio investments, a decrease in in our operating expenses, including with respect to our income incentive fee, or a decrease in the interest rate of our floating interest rate liabilities. Our interest expense is affected by fluctuations in SOFR on our Encina and Live Oak Credit Facilities.
At August 31, 2025, we had $786.4 million of borrowings outstanding. This includes $32.5 million borrowings outstanding under the Encina Credit Facility and $37.5 million borrowings outstanding under the Live Oak Credit Facility as of August 31, 2025. As of August 31, 2025, on a fair value basis, approximately 1.2% of our debt investments bear interest at a fixed-rate and approximately 98.8% of our debt investments bear interest at a floating rate. As of August 31, 2025, 100% of our floating rate debt investments are subject to interest rate floors. Additionally, both the Encina Credit Facility and the Live Oak Credit Facility are subject to a floating interest rate and is currently paid based on floating Term SOFR rate.
We have analyzed the potential impact of changes in interest rates on interest income from investments. Assuming that our investments as of August 31, 2025 were to remain constant for a full fiscal year and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate terms, a hypothetical change of a 1.0% increase in interest rates would cause a corresponding increase of approximately $8.8 million to our interest income. Conversely, a hypothetical change of a 1.0% decrease in interest rates would cause a corresponding decrease of approximately $8.8 million to our interest income.
Changes in interest rates would have no impact to our current interest and debt financing expenses, except for our borrowings under our Encina and Live Oak credit facilities. All of our remaining borrowings are fixed-rate borrowings. Assuming that our Encina and Live Oak borrowings as of August 31, 2025 were to remain constant for a full fiscal year and no actions were taken to alter the existing interest rate terms, a hypothetical change of a 1.0% increase in interest rates would cause a corresponding increase of approximately $0.7 million to our interest expense. Conversely, a hypothetical change of a 1.0% decrease in interest rates would cause a corresponding decrease of approximately $0.7 million to our interest expense.
Although management believes that this measure is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for potential changes in credit quality, size and composition of the assets on the statements of assets and liabilities and other business developments that could magnify or diminish our sensitivity to interest rate changes, nor does it account for divergences in SOFR and the commercial paper rate, which have historically moved in tandem but, in times of unusual credit dislocations, have experienced periods of divergence. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not materially differ from the potential outcome simulated by this estimate.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
| (a) | As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that our current disclosure controls and procedures are effective in facilitating timely decisions regarding required disclosure of any material information relating to us that is required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. |
| (b) | There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended August 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. |

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Neither we nor our wholly owned subsidiaries, Saratoga Investment Funding LLC, Saratoga Investment Funding II, LLC, Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC II LP, or Saratoga Investment Corp. SBIC III LP, are currently subject to any material legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the “Risk Factors” discussed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. There have been no material changes during the six months ended August 31, 2025 to the risk factors discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2025. Additional risks or uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
We are subject to risks to the extent we invest in covenant-lite loans.
On occasion, the Company may invest in “covenant-lite” loans. Covenant-lite loans contain fewer maintenance covenants than other loans, or no maintenance covenants, and do not always include terms that allow the lender to monitor the performance of the borrower and declare a default if certain criteria are breached. Covenant-lite loans can carry more risk than traditional loans as they allow borrowers to engage in activities that would otherwise be difficult or not permitted under loan agreements with a full package of covenants. In an event of default, covenant-lite loans could result in diminished recovery values where the lender did not have the opportunity to negotiate with the borrower or to restructure the loan prior to default. Accordingly, to the extent the Company invests in covenant-lite loans, the Company may have fewer rights against a borrower and may have a greater risk of loss on such investments as compared to investments in or exposure to loans with financial maintenance covenants.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On September 24, 2014, we announced the approval of an open market share repurchase plan that originally allowed it to repurchase up to 200,000 shares of its common stock at prices below its NAV as reported in its then most recently published consolidated financial statements (the “Share Repurchase Plan”). Since September 24, 2014, the Share Repurchase Plan has been extended annually, and we have periodically increased the amount of shares of common stock that may be purchased under the Share Repurchase Plan, most recently to 1.7 million shares of common stock. On January 7, 2025, our board of directors extended the Share Repurchase Plan for another year to January 15, 2026. As of August 31, 2025, we had purchased 1,035,203 shares of common stock, at the average price of $22.05 for approximately $22.8 million pursuant to the Share Repurchase Plan. During the three and six months ended August 31, 2025, we did not purchase any shares of common stock pursuant to the Share Repurchase Plan.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
