mainstcapital.comNYSE: MAINMain Street Capital Corporation www.mainstcapital.com Page 7 MAIN Strategy Produces Differentiated Returns Enhanced Value Proposition - Three Ways to Win are Better Than One 1. Sustain and Grow Dividends • Efficient operating structure provides operating leverage to grow Distributable Net Investment Income (DNII) (1), and dividends paid, as investment portfolio and total investment income grow • 105% increase in monthly dividends from $0.33 per share paid in Q4 2007 to declared dividends of $0.675 per share for Q2 2023 • Never decreased regular monthly dividends (including through 2008/2009 recession and 2020/2021 COVID-19 pandemic) • Paid or declared $36.645 per share in total dividends since October 2007 IPO at $15.00 per share ($31.98 per share in regular dividends and $4.665 per share in supplemental dividends)(2) • Multi-faceted investment strategy supports growth of dividends over various cycles and markets 2.

Supplement Growth in DNII(1) with Periodic Realized Gains • LMM equity component of investment strategy provides opportunity for meaningful realized gains (analogous to PIK income on debt investments from cash flow perspective, but more tax efficient and without cap on upside) • Realized gains validate the quality of MAIN's unrealized appreciation • Realized gains can be retained for future reinvestment due to MAIN's unique tax structure or paid to shareholders as dividends (1) See reconciliation of DNII per share to Net Investment Income per share on page 38 and Non-GAAP Information disclosures on page 48 of this presentation (2) Includes dividends paid or declared as of February 24, 2023

mainstcapital.comNYSE: MAINMain Street Capital Corporation www.mainstcapital.com Page 44 Interest Rate Impact and Sensitivity The following table illustrates the approximate annual changes in the components of MAIN's net investment income due to hypothetical increases (decreases) in interest rates(1)(2) (dollars in thousands, except per share data): MAIN's financial results are subject to impact from changes in interest rates; MAIN's capital structure includes a majority of fixed rate debt obligations, while MAIN's investment portfolio includes a majority of floating rate debt investments with minimum interest rate floors – 70% of MAIN's outstanding debt obligations have fixed interest rates(5), limiting the increase in interest expense – 73% of MAIN's debt investments bear interest at floating rates(5), the majority of which contain contractual minimum index rates, or "interest rate floors" (weighted-average floor of approximately 105 basis points)(6) – Provides MAIN the opportunity to achieve significant increases in net investment income if market interest rates increase, but also results in reductions to net investment income if market interest rates decrease (1) Assumes no changes in the portfolio investments, outstanding Credit Facilities (as defined on page 42) borrowings or other debt obligations existing as of December 31, 2022 (2) Assumes that all LIBOR, SOFR and Prime rates would change effective immediately on the first day of the period; however, the actual contractual index rate reset dates for our debt investments vary in future periods generally on either a monthly or quarterly basis across both the investments resulting in a delay in the realization of the increases or decreases in interest income (3) The hypothetical (increase) decrease in interest expense would be impacted by the changes in the amount of debt outstanding under our Credit Facilities, with interest expense (increasing) decreasing as the debt outstanding under our Credit Facilities increases (decreases) (4) Per share amount is calculated using shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022 (5) As of December 31, 2022, based on par (6) Weighted-average interest rate floor calculated based on debt principal balances as of December 31, 2022 Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of the impact of interest rate changes to our net investment income as of December 31, 2022, the analysis does not take into consideration future changes in the credit market, credit quality or other business or economic developments that could affect our net investment income. Accordingly, we can offer no assurances that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis above.

mainstcapital.comNYSE: MAINMain Street Capital Corporation www.mainstcapital.com Page 48 Non-GAAP Information Distributable net investment income is net investment income as determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or U.S. GAAP, excluding the impacts of non-cash compensation expenses (as defined below). MAIN believes presenting distributable net investment income and the related per share amounts is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing our financial performance since non-cash compensation expenses do not result in a net cash impact to Main Street upon settlement. However, distributable net investment income is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for net investment income or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MAIN's financial performance. Non-cash compensation expenses consist of (i) share-based compensation and (ii) deferred compensation expense or benefit, both of which are non-cash in nature. Share-based compensation does not require settlement in cash. Deferred compensation expense or benefit does not result in a net cash impact to Main Street upon settlement. The appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of deferred compensation plan assets is reflected in Main Street's Consolidated Statements of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and an increase (decrease) in compensation expenses, respectively. Main Street believes presenting non-cash compensation expenses is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial performance since non-cash compensation expenses do not result in a net cash impact to Main Street upon settlement. However, non-cash compensation expenses are non-U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as a replacement for compensation expenses, total expenses or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing Main Street's financial performance. Net Debt to NAV Ratio is calculated as the Debt to NAV Ratio as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, except that total debt is reduced by cash and cash equivalents. The Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio is calculated in the same manner as the Debt to NAV Ratio, except that outstanding SBIC debentures are excluded from the debt pursuant to an exemptive order MAIN received from the Securities and Exchange Commission. MAIN believes presenting the Net Debt to NAV Ratio is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial position and leverage. MAIN believes presenting the Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure because Main Street, a business development company, is permitted to exclude such borrowings from its regulatory asset coverage ratio calculation pursuant to an exemptive order received from the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, the Net Debt to NAV Ratio and the Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio are non-U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as replacements for the Debt to NAV Ratio and other financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, the Net Debt to NAV Ratio and the Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MAIN's financial position.

mainstcapital.comNYSE: MAINMain Street Capital Corporation www.mainstcapital.com Page 37 Non-GAAP Information Distributable net investment income is net investment income as determined in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or U.S. GAAP, excluding the impacts of non-cash compensation expenses (as defined below). MAIN believes presenting distributable net investment income and the related per share amounts is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing our financial performance since non-cash compensation expenses do not result in a net cash impact to Main Street upon settlement. However, distributable net investment income is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and should not be considered as a replacement for net investment income or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MAIN's financial performance. Non-cash compensation expenses consist of (i) share-based compensation and (ii) deferred compensation expense or benefit, both of which are non-cash in nature. Share-based compensation does not require settlement in cash. Deferred compensation expense or benefit does not result in a net cash impact to Main Street upon settlement. The appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value of deferred compensation plan assets is reflected in Main Street's Consolidated Statements of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and an increase (decrease) in compensation expenses, respectively. Main Street believes presenting non-cash compensation expenses is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial performance since non-cash compensation expenses do not result in a net cash impact to Main Street upon settlement. However, non-cash compensation expenses are non-U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as a replacement for compensation expenses, total expenses or other earnings measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing Main Street's financial performance. Net Debt to NAV Ratio is calculated as the Debt to NAV Ratio as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, except that total debt is reduced by cash and cash equivalents. The Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio is calculated in the same manner as the Debt to NAV Ratio, except that outstanding SBIC debentures are excluded from the debt pursuant to an exemptive order MAIN received from the Securities and Exchange Commission. MAIN believes presenting the Net Debt to NAV Ratio is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure for analyzing its financial position and leverage. MAIN believes presenting the Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio is useful and appropriate supplemental disclosure because Main Street, a business development company, is permitted to exclude such borrowings from its regulatory asset coverage ratio calculation pursuant to an exemptive order received from the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, the Net Debt to NAV Ratio and the Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio are non-U.S. GAAP measures and should not be considered as replacements for the Debt to NAV Ratio and other financial measures presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Instead, the Net Debt to NAV Ratio and the Non-SBIC Debt to NAV Ratio should be reviewed only in connection with such U.S. GAAP measures in analyzing MAIN's financial position.
