*\** *Actual dividend of $1.00 per share, including the additional special dividend of $0.25 per share declared this fiscal 2026 third quarter in addition with the regular dividend*

 

*\*\** *Actual dividend of $1.09 per share, including the additional special dividend of $0.35 per share declared this fiscal 2025 third quarter in conjunction with the regular dividend*

Christian L. Oberbeck, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Saratoga Investment, commented, "This quarter's highlights include continued NAV growth from the previous quarter and year with stable NAV per share, an increase in NII of $0.03 per share from the previous quarter, a strong 13.5% return on equity beating the industry, net originations of $17.2 million including three new portfolio companies, and importantly, continued solid performance from the core BDC portfolio in a volatile macro environment."

"Continuing our strong dividend distribution history, we announced a base dividend of $0.25 per share per month, or $0.75 per share in aggregate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. Additionally, we declared and paid a special dividend of $0.25 per share in the third quarter, fulfilling our fiscal 2025 distribution requirements. Including this special distribution, total dividends declared in fiscal year 2026 are $3.25 per share. Our annualized fourth quarter dividend of $0.75 per share represents a 12.9% yield based on the stock price of $23.19 as of January 6, 2025, offering strong current income from an investment value standpoint. Though we did see an increase in adjusted NII of $0.03 per share from the previous quarter, our third quarter NII of $0.61 per share continues to reflect the impact of the past twelve-month trend of decreasing levels of short-term interest rates and spreads on Saratoga Investment's largely floating rate assets, as well as continued high levels of repayments. Strong originations outpaced repayments during the third quarter, and the repayment of a $12 million baby bond resulted in our cash position decreasing to $169.6 million, though we still have significant cash available to be deployed accretively in investments or to repay existing debt."

"During the quarter, we began to see an increase in M&A activity despite continued competitive market dynamics. While our portfolio again saw multiple debt repayments in Q3, we had strong new originations, resulting in net originations of $17.2 million for the quarter. We originated $72.1 million in three new investments and nine follow-ons, as well as closing on new investments in multiple BB and BBB structured credit securities. Our strong reputation and differentiated market positioning, combined with our ongoing development of sponsor relationships, continues to create attractive investment opportunities from high quality sponsors, which is continuing post quarter-end with four new portfolio company investments either closed or in closing in Q4 so far, which further improves our run rate earnings. We continue to remain prudent and discerning in terms of new commitments in the current volatile environment"

"Saratoga's overall performance is reflected in our key performance indicators this past quarter, including: (i) Q3 ROE of 13.5% generating LTM ROE of 9.7%, beating the BDC industry average of 6.6%, (ii) deleveraging from 160.1% regulatory leverage last year to 168.4% this year, due in part to the NAV increase of $38.3 million during the last twelve months ($374.9 million to $413.2 million), (iii) NAV per share relatively stable at $25.59 per share versus $25.61 per share last quarter, (iv) an increase in AUM of $20.7 million, or 2.1%, to $1.016 billion from the previous quarter, (v) an increase of $0.03 in adjusted NII per share to $0.61 per share versus $0.58 per share last quarter, (vi) net originations of $17.2 million, (vii) EPS of $0.74 per share versus $0.84 per share last quarter, and (viii) dividends of $0.75 per share, up $0.01 per share from $0.74 per share last year.

"At the foundation of our strong operating performance is the high-quality nature, resilience and balance of our $1.016 billion portfolio in the current environment. Where we have encountered significant challenges in four of our portfolio companies over the past two years, we have completed decisive actions and resolved all four of these situations through two sales and two restructurings, with our Zollege investment returning to accrual status last quarter and recently increasing in value. Our current core non-CLO portfolio was marked up, including realized gains, by $2.9 million this quarter, more than offsetting the CLO and JV markdown of $0.4 million, resulting in the fair value of the portfolio increasing by $2.5 million during the quarter. As of quarter-end, our total portfolio fair value was 1.7% below cost, while our core non-CLO portfolio remains 2.1% above cost. The overall financial performance and solid earnings power of our current portfolio reflects strong underwriting in our growing portfolio companies and sponsors in well-selected industry segments."

"During the quarter, our core BDC net interest margin increased from $13.1 million last quarter to $13.5 million, driven primarily by a $0.5 million decrease in interest expenses reflecting the recent $17 million in baby bond repayments. This quarter's interest income remained relatively unchanged, benefitting from (i) average non-CLO assets increasing approximately $8.5 million, or 0.9%, to $962.2 million, and (ii) this quarter's repayments resulting in various accelerated OID recognitions, offset by (i) the absolute yields of the non-CLO BDC portfolio reducing from 11.3% to 10.6% as a result of SOFR rates resetting from earlier reductions combined with the impact of lower yielding new originations during the quarter, and (ii) the timing of new originations and repayments during the quarter. In addition, the full-period impact of the 0.5 million shares issued through the ATM program in Q2, and the partial impact of the additional 0.1 million shares issued in Q3, resulted in a $0.01 per share dilution to NII per share."

"Though our quarter-end cash position decreased from $200.8 million last quarter to $169.6 million in the current quarter, we have maintained a strong level of cash availability in a very volatile macro environment. This level of cash improves our current regulatory leverage of 168.4% to 183.7%, netting available cash against outstanding debt."

"Our overall credit quality for this quarter continued to improve to 99.8% of credits rated in our highest category. There is just one investment remaining on non-accrual status, Pepper Palace, which has been successfully restructured, representing only 0.2% of fair value and 0.4% of cost. With 83.9% of our investments at quarter-end in first lien debt and generally supported by strong enterprise values and balance sheets in industries that have historically performed well in stressed situations, we believe our portfolio and company leverage is well structured for future economic conditions and uncertainty."

Mr. Oberbeck concluded, "Despite geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty remaining ongoing factors, we began seeing renewed momentum in M&A activity across the market. At the same time, our portfolio continues to perform, and we remain encouraged by the resilience and strength of our business development efforts and pipeline. While broader sentiment towards the private credit market has become increasingly cautious due to a few high-profile bankruptcies, we believe these issues are largely idiosyncratic and not indicative of broader private credit market fundamentals, in addition to these companies not being representative of the lower end of the middle market that we participate in. Supported by our experienced management team, disciplined underwriting, and strong balance sheet, we believe we are well positioned to responsibly grow the size and quality of our portfolio, generate consistent investment performance, and deliver compelling risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders over the long term."

**<u>Discussion of Financial Results for the Quarter ended November 30, 2025:</u>**

● **AUM** as of November 30, 2025 was $1.016 billion, an increase of 5.8% from $960.1 million as of November 30, 2024, and an increase of 2.1% from $995.3 million as of last quarter.

● **Total investment income** for the three months ended November 30, 2025 was $31.6 million, a decrease of $4.3 million, or 11.8%, from $35.9 million for the quarter ended November 30, 2024, and an increase of $1.0 million, or 3.3%, as compared to $30.6 million for the quarter ended August 31, 2025. This quarter's investment income decreases as compared to last year were due to (i) this past year's interest base rate decreases, and (ii) lower recent AUM levels, reflecting outsized repayments in the last twelve months. This quarter's sequential increase is primarily driven by OID accelerations resulting from specific repayments, with the impact of increased AUM offset by lower base rates. Investment income reflects a weighted average interest rate on the core BDC portfolio of 10.6%, down from 11.3% as of August 31, 2025 and 11.8% as of November 30, 2024, with the yield reduction primarily reflecting SOFR base rate decreases over the past year, but also indicative of recent tight spreads experienced on new originations versus historically higher spreads on repaid assets.

● **Total expenses** for the quarter ended November 30, 2025, excluding interest and debt financing expenses, base management fees and incentive fees, and income and excise taxes, increased $0.5 million to $3.3 million as compared to $2.8 million for the quarter ended November 30, 2024, and increased $0.8 million as compared to $2.5 million for the quarter ended August 31, 2025. This represented 0.8% of average total assets on an annualized basis, unchanged from 0.8% last quarter and down from 0.9% last year.

● **Adjusted NII** for the quarter ended November 30, 2025, was $9.8 million, a decrease of $2.6 million, or 21.3%, from $12.4 million in the quarter ended November 30, 2024, and an increase of $0.7 million, or 7.8% from $9.1 million in the quarter ended August 31, 2025. The increase from last quarter, in addition to the abovementioned changes, reflects the reduction in interest expense on borrowings resulting from the recent repayments of $17 million of private baby bonds.

● **NII Yield** as a percentage of average net asset value was 9.5% for the quarter ended November 30, 2025. Adjusted for the incentive fee accrual related to net capital gains, the NII Yield was also 9.5%. In comparison, adjusted NII Yield was 13.3% for the quarter ended November 30, 2024, and 9.0% for the quarter ended August 31, 2025.

● **NAV** was $413.2 million as of November 30, 2025, an increase of $38.3 million from $374.9 million as of November 30, 2024, and an increase of $2.7 million from $410.5 million as of August 31, 2025.

● **NAV per share** was $25.59 as of November 30, 2025, compared to $26.95 as of November 30, 2024, and $25.61 as of August 31, 2025.

● **Return on equity ("ROE")** for the last twelve months ended November 30, 2025 was 9.7%, up from 9.2% for the comparable period last year, and up from 9.1% for the twelve months ended August 31, 2025. ROE on an annualized basis for the quarter ended November 30, 2025, was 13.5%, up from 9.5% for the comparable period last year, and down slightly from 13.8% for the previous period ended August 31, 2025.

● **The weighted average common shares outstanding** for the quarter ended November 30, 2025 was 16.1 million, increasing from 15.8 million and 13.8 million for the quarters ended August 31, 2025 and November 30, 2024, respectively.

**<u>Portfolio and Investment Activity for the Quarter Ended November 30, 2025</u>**

● **Fair value of Saratoga Investment's portfolio** was $1.016 billion, excluding $169.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, principally invested in 46 portfolio companies, one collateralized loan obligation fund (the "CLO"), one joint venture fund (the "JV"), and 24 BB and BBB CLO debt investments.

● **Cost of investments** made during the quarter ended November 30, 2025 were $72.1 million, including three new investments and nine follow-on investments.

● **Principal repayments** during the quarter ended November 30, 2025 were $54.9 million, including three full repayments of existing investments, three partial repayments of existing investments and one equity realization, plus debt amortization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o For
 the quarter ended November 30, 2025, the fair value of the portfolio increased by $2.5
 million of net realized gains and unrealized depreciation, consisting of (i) net realized
 gains of $2.1 million on the sale of our Axiom investment equity position, and (ii) $1.0
 million of escrow realized gain on our Identity investment, offset by (i) net unrealized
 depreciation of $0.2 million in our core non-CLO portfolio, including Pepper Palace and Zollege,
 and (ii) net unrealized depreciation of $0.4 million in the CLO, JV and our BB and BBB CLO
 debt investments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Since
 taking over management of the BDC in 2010, the Company has generated $1.34 billion of repayments
 and sales of investments originated by Saratoga Investment, generating a gross unlevered
 IRR of 14.9%. Total investments originated by Saratoga are $2.4 billion in 125 portfolio
 companies.

● **The overall portfolio composition** consisted of 83.9% of first lien term loans, 0.8% of second lien term loans, 1.6% of unsecured loans, 5.4% of structured finance securities, and 8.3% of common equity.

● **The weighted average current yield** on Saratoga Investment's portfolio based on current fair values was 9.7%, which was comprised of a weighted average current yield of 10.4% on first lien term loans, 15.6% on second lien term loans, 10.9% on unsecured loans, 9.7% on structured finance securities and 0.0% on equity interests.

**Portfolio Update**:

● **Subsequent to quarter-end**, Saratoga Investment has closed or currently has in closing approximately $89.3 million of new originations in four new portfolio companies and six follow-ons, including delayed draws, and had two repayments of $30.5 million, for a net anticipated increase in investments of approximately $58.8 million.

**<u>Liquidity and Capital Resources</u>**

<u>Outstanding Borrowings:</u> 

● On November 6, 2025, we entered into a new credit agreement with Valley National Bank ("Valley Credit Facility") in the initial facility amount of $85.0 million. The proceeds initially drawn of $32.5 million were used to fully repay the outstanding amounts on the existing Encina Credit Facility and terminate that facility with immediate effect. Under the Valley Credit Facility, funds may be borrowed from or through certain lenders at a floating rate per annum equal to Term SOFR plus an applicable margin of 2.85%, with a SOFR floor of 1.00%. This is a borrowing base facility with a term of three years.

● As of November 30, 2025, Saratoga Investment had a combined $70.0 million in outstanding combined borrowings under its $85.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with Valley National Bank and its $75.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with Live Oak.

● At the same time, Saratoga Investment had $131.0 million of SBA debentures in its SBIC II license outstanding, $39.0 million of SBA debentures in its SBIC III license outstanding, $269.4 million of listed baby bonds issued, $250.0 million of unsecured unlisted institutional bond issuances, two unlisted issuances of $15.0 million in total, and an aggregate of $169.6 million in cash and cash equivalents.

<u>Undrawn Borrowing Capacity:</u>

● With $90.0 million available under the two credit facilities and $169.6 million of cash and cash equivalents as of November 30, 2025, Saratoga Investment has a total of $259.6 million of undrawn credit facility borrowing capacity and cash and cash equivalents to be used for new investments or to support existing portfolio companies in the BDC and the SBIC.

● In addition, Saratoga Investment has $136.0 million in undrawn SBA debentures available from its existing SBIC III license.

● Availability under the Valley National Bank and Live Oak credit facilities can change depending on portfolio company performance and valuation. In addition, certain follow-on investments in SBIC II and the BDC will not qualify for SBIC III funding. Overall outstanding SBIC debentures are limited to $350.0 million across all active SBIC licenses.

● Total Saratoga Investment undrawn borrowing capacity is therefore $395.6 million.

● As of November 30, 2025, Saratoga Investment had $66.8 million of committed undrawn lending commitments and $71.2 million of discretionary funding commitments.

<u>Additionally:</u>

● Saratoga Investment has an active equity distribution agreement with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., Raymond James and Associates, Inc, Lucid Capital Markets, LLC and Compass Point Research and Trading, LLC, through which the Company may offer for sale, from time to time, up to $300.0 million of common stock through an ATM offering.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o As
 of November 30, 2025, Saratoga Investment has sold 8,591,915 shares for gross proceeds of
 $227.2 million at an average price of $26.37 for aggregate net proceeds of $225.4 million
 (net of transaction costs).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o During
 the three months ended November 30, 2025, Saratoga Investment sold a total of 58,962 shares
 for gross proceeds of $1.5 million at an average price of $25.52 for aggregate net proceeds
 of $1.5 million (net of transaction costs). During the nine months ended November 30, 2025,
 Saratoga Investment sold 0.7 million shares for gross proceeds of $19.3 million at an average
 price of $25.83 for aggregate net proceeds of $19.3 million (net of transaction costs).

**<u>Dividend</u>**

On December 11, 2025, Saratoga Investment announced that its Board of Directors declared a base quarterly dividend of $0.75 per share in aggregate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026, declaring the following three monthly $0.25 per share dividends for the quarter ended February 28, 2025:

Since then, the Share Repurchase Plan has been extended annually, and the Company has 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 6, 2026, its Board of Directors extended the Share Repurchase Plan for another year to January 15, 2027.

<u>Supplemental Information Regarding Adjusted Net Investment Income, Adjusted Net Investment Income Yield and Adjusted Net Investment Income per Share</u>

On a supplemental basis, Saratoga Investment provides information relating to adjusted net investment income, adjusted net investment income yield and adjusted net investment income per share, which are non-GAAP measures. These measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net investment income, net investment income yield and net investment income per share, respectively. These non-GAAP measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with their corresponding GAAP measures. Adjusted net investment income represents net investment income excluding any capital gains incentive fee expense or reversal attributable to realized and unrealized gains. The management agreement with the Company's advisor provides that a capital gains incentive fee is determined and paid annually with respect to cumulative realized capital gains (but not unrealized capital gains) to the extent such realized capital gains exceed realized and unrealized losses for such year. In addition, Saratoga Investment accrues, but does not pay, a capital gains incentive fee in connection with any unrealized capital appreciation, as appropriate. All capital gains incentive fees are presented within net investment income within the Consolidated Statements of Operations, but the associated realized and unrealized gains and losses that these incentive fees relate to, are excluded. As such, Saratoga Investment believes that adjusted net investment income, adjusted net investment income yield and adjusted net investment income per share is a useful indicator of operations exclusive of any capital gains incentive fee expense or reversal attributable to gains. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Pursuant to the requirements of Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K, the following table provides a reconciliation of net investment income to adjusted net investment income, net investment income yield to adjusted net investment income yield and net investment income per share to adjusted net investment income per share for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2025 and 2024.
