AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 NOTE 1— NATURE OF OPERATIONS SuRo Capital Corp. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or “SuRo Capital”), formerly known as Sutter Rock Capital Corp. and as GSV Capital Corp. and formed in September 2010 as a Maryland corporation, is an internally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company’s date of inception was January 6, 2011, which is the date it commenced development stage activities. The Company’s common stock is currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “SSSS” (formerly “GSVC”). Prior to November 24, 2021, the Company’s common stock traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the same symbol (“SSSS”). The Company began its investment operations during the second quarter of 2011. The table below displays the Company’s subsidiaries as of September 30, 2024, which, other than GSV Capital Lending, LLC (“GCL”) and SuRo Capital Sports, LLC, are collectively referred to as the “Taxable Subsidiaries.” The Taxable Subsidiaries were formed to hold certain portfolio investments. The Taxable Subsidiaries, including their associated portfolio investments, are consolidated with the Company for accounting purposes, but have elected to be treated as separate entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. GCL was formed to originate portfolio loan investments within the state of California and is consolidated with the Company for accounting purposes.

The Company invests principally in the equity securities of what it believes to be rapidly growing venture capital-backed emerging companies. The Company may invest in these portfolio companies through direct offerings of the prospective portfolio companies, transactions on secondary marketplaces for private companies, negotiations with selling stockholders, investment funds, or through special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”) and other investment funds for the purpose of investing in securities of a single private issuer. In addition, the Company may invest in private credit and in founders equity, founders warrants, and private investment in public equity transactions of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”). The Company may also invest on an opportunistic basis in select publicly traded equity securities or certain non-U.S. companies that otherwise meet its investment criteria, subject to any applicable limitations under the 1940 Act. 14 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 NOTE 2— SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Company is an investment company following the specialized accounting and reporting guidance specified in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies . In the opinion of management, all adjustments, all of which were of a normal recurring nature, were considered necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the period have been included. The results of operations for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2024. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Basis of Consolidation Under Article 6 of Regulation S-X and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ (“AICPA”) Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies, the Company is precluded from consolidating any entity other than another investment company, a controlled operating company that provides substantially all of its services and benefits to the Company, and certain entities established for tax purposes where the Company holds a 100% interest. Accordingly, the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include its accounts and the accounts of the Taxable Subsidiaries, GCL, and SuRo Sports, its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Segments The Company invests in and lends to portfolio companies in various industries, including artificial intelligence, consumer goods and services, education technology, financial technology and services, logistics and supply chain, software-as-a-service, and others. The Company separately evaluates the performance of each of its portfolio company investments. However, because each of these venture capital investments has similar business and economic characteristics, they have been aggregated into a single reportable segment. Use of Estimates The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make a number of significant estimates. These include estimates of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. It is likely that changes in these estimates may occur in the near term. The Company’s estimates are inherently subjective in nature and actual results could differ materially from such estimates. Uncertainties and Risk Factors The Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties in the nature of its operations, as well as vulnerability due to certain concentrations. Refer to “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q for a detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the nature of the Company’s operations. Refer to “Note 4—Investments at Fair Value” for an overview of the Company’s industry and geographic concentrations. Investments at Fair Value The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with GAAP and the AICPA’s Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies. The Company values its assets on a quarterly basis, or more frequently if required under the 1940 Act. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: Level 1 —Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. 15 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 Level 2 —Valuations based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data at the measurement date for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 —Valuations based on unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. The majority of the Company’s investments are Level 3 investments and are subject to a high degree of judgment and uncertainty in determining fair value. When the inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). Therefore, gains and losses for such assets and liabilities categorized within the Level 3 table set forth in “Note 4—Investments at Fair Value” may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3). A review of fair value hierarchy classifications is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the observability of valuation inputs may result in a reclassification for certain financial assets or liabilities. Reclassifications impacting Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are reported as transfers in/out of the Level 3 category as of the beginning of the measurement period in which the reclassifications occur. Refer to “Levelling Policy” below for a detailed discussion of the levelling of the Company’s financial assets or liabilities and events that may cause a reclassification within the fair value hierarchy. Securities for which market quotations are readily available on an exchange are valued at the most recently available closing price of such security as of the valuation date. If there are legal or contractual restrictions on the sale or use of such security that under ASC 820-10-35, as modified by ASU 2022-03 (as defined below), should be incorporated into the security’s fair value measurement as a characteristic of the security that would transfer to market participants who would buy the security, the Company will consider those restrictions in the fair value determination of that security. Contractual sale restrictions on the sale or use of a security which are an entity-specific characteristic, rather than a security-specific characteristic (as discussed in ASU 2022-03), are not considered in the fair value determinations for such securities. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments from pricing services, brokers or dealers in order to value assets. When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. If determined to be adequate, the Company uses the quote obtained. Securities for which reliable market quotations are not readily available or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology, or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of management, the Company’s Board of Directors or the valuation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Valuation Committee”), does not reliably represent fair value, shall each be valued as follows: 1. The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the internal investment professionals responsible for the portfolio investment; 2. Preliminary valuation estimates are then documented and discussed with senior management; 3. For all investments for which there are no readily available market quotations, the Valuation Committee engages an independent third-party valuation firm to conduct independent appraisals, review management’s preliminary valuations and make its own independent assessment; 16 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 4. The Valuation Committee applies the appropriate valuation methodology to each portfolio asset in a consistent manner, considers the inputs provided by management and the independent third-party valuation firm, discusses the valuations and recommends to the Company’s Board of Directors a fair value for each investment in the portfolio; and 5. The Company’s Board of Directors then discusses the valuations recommended by the Valuation Committee and determines in good faith the fair value of each investment in the portfolio. In making a good faith determination of the fair value of investments, the Board of Directors applies valuation methodologies consistent with industry practice. Valuation methods utilized include, but are not limited to, the following: comparisons to prices from secondary market transactions; venture capital financings; public offerings; purchase or sales transactions; analysis of financial ratios and valuation metrics of portfolio companies that issued such private equity securities to peer companies that are public; analysis of the portfolio company’s most recent financial statements, forecasts and the markets in which the portfolio company does business, and other relevant factors. The Company assigns a weighting based upon the relevance of each method to assist the Board of Directors in determining the fair value of each investment. For investments that are not publicly traded or that do not have readily available market quotations, the Valuation Committee generally engages an independent valuation firm to provide an independent valuation, which the Company’s Board of Directors considers, among other factors, in making its fair value determinations for these investments. For the current and prior fiscal year, the Valuation Committee engaged an independent valuation firm to perform valuations of 100% of the Company’s investments for which there were no readily available market quotations. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been reported had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the realized gains or losses on investments to be different from the net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation currently reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Equity Investments Equity investments for which market quotations are readily available in an active market are generally valued at the most recently available closing market prices and are classified as Level 1 assets. Equity investments with readily available market quotations that are subject to sales restrictions due to an initial public offering (“IPO”) by the portfolio company will be classified as Level 1. Any other equity investments with readily available market quotations that are subject to sales restrictions that would transfer to market participants who would buy the security may be valued at a discount for a lack of marketability (“DLOM”) to the most recently available closing market prices. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 assets. The DLOM used is generally based upon the market value of publicly traded put options with similar terms. For equity securities with readily available market quotations that are subject to entity-specific contractual sale restrictions, rather than security-specific contractual sale restrictions, if such entity-specific contractual sale restrictions first applied or were modified on or after December 15, 2023, the restrictions are not considered in the determination of fair value for that security. See “Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Standards” for more information. The fair values of the Company’s equity investments for which market quotations are not readily available are determined based on various factors and are classified as Level 3 assets. To determine the fair value of a portfolio company for which market quotations are not readily available, the Board of Directors applies the appropriate respective valuation methodology for the asset class or portfolio holding, which may involve analyzing the relevant portfolio company’s most recently available historical and projected financial results, public market comparables, and other factors. The Board of Directors may also consider other events, including the transaction in which the Company acquired its securities, subsequent equity sales by the portfolio company, and mergers or acquisitions affecting the portfolio company. In addition, the Board of Directors may consider the trends of the portfolio company’s basic financial metrics from the time of its original investment until the measurement date, with material improvement of these metrics indicating a possible increase in fair value, while material deterioration of these metrics may indicate a possible reduction in fair value. 17 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 In determining the fair value of equity or equity-linked securities (including simple agreement for future equity (“SAFE”) notes and warrants to purchase common or preferred stock) in a portfolio company, the Board of Directors considers the rights, preferences and limitations of such securities. When equity-linked securities expire worthless, any cost associated with these positions is recognized as a realized loss on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In the event these securities are exercised into common or preferred stock, the cost associated with these securities is reassigned to the cost basis of the new common or preferred stock. These conversions are noted as non-cash operating items on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Debt Investments Given the nature of the Company’s current debt investments (excluding U.S. Treasuries), which are principally convertible and promissory notes issued by venture capital-backed portfolio companies, these investments are classified as Level 3 assets because there is no known or accessible market or market indices for these investment securities to be traded or exchanged. The Company’s debt investments are valued at estimated fair value as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. Options The Company’s Board of Directors determines the fair value of options based on methodologies that can include discounted cash flow analyses, option pricing models, comparable analyses and other techniques as deemed appropriate. These investments are classified as Level 3 assets because there is no known or accessible market or market indices for these investment securities to be traded or exchanged. The Company’s options are valued at estimated fair value as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. Special Purpose Vehicles and Investment Funds At various times, the Company may utilize SPVs and similar investment fund structures in the investment process. The Company advances money to these SPVs or investment funds that are formed for the specific purpose of investing in securities of a single private issuer. Generally speaking, these single asset SPVs have the following characteristics: (1) the underlying investment in the securities of the single private issuer is the sole activity of the SPV or investment fund; (2) the Company’s underlying ownership of the single private issuer is proportionate to the Company’s contributions made to the SPV or investment fund; and (3) the Company will receive its proportionate share of the cash proceeds as the single private issuer is monetized and distributed. The Condensed Consolidated Schedule of Investments presents the value of the Company’s investment in the SPV or investment fund. These SPV and fund investments are valued at estimated fair value as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. The SPVs may incur a tax liability associated with distributions made by underlying portfolio investments. If an SPV or investment fund charges management fees or prepaid partnership expenses, those fees may adjust the cost of the SPV. In valuing the Company’s investments in venture investment funds (“Venture Investment Funds”), the Company may apply the practical expedient provided by the ASC Topic 820 relating to investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value (“NAV”) per share (or its equivalent). ASC Topic 820 permits an entity holding investments in certain entities that either are investment companies, or have attributes similar to an investment company, and calculate NAV per share or its equivalent for which the fair value is not readily determinable, to measure the fair value of such investments on the basis of that NAV per share, or its equivalent, without adjustment. Special Purpose Acquisition Companies The Company’s Board of Directors measures its SPAC sponsor investments at fair value, which is equivalent to cost until a SPAC transaction is announced. After a SPAC transaction is announced, the Company’s Board of Directors will determine the fair value of SPAC investments based on fair value analyses that can include option pricing models, probability-weighted expected return method analyses and other techniques as deemed appropriate. Upon completion of the SPAC transaction, the Board of Directors utilizes the public share price of the entity, less a DLOM if there are security-specific contractual sale restrictions. The Company’s SPAC investments are valued at estimated fair value as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors. 18 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 Portfolio Company Investment Classification The Company is a non-diversified company within the meaning of the 1940 Act. The Company classifies its investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, control investments are those where the investor retains the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of a company. Control is generally deemed to exist when a company or individual directly or indirectly owns beneficially more than 25% of the voting securities of an investee company. Affiliated investments and affiliated companies are defined by a lesser degree of influence and are deemed to exist when a company or individual directly or indirectly owns, controls or holds the power to vote 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of a portfolio company. Refer to the Condensed Consolidated Schedules of Investments as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 for details regarding the nature and composition of the Company’s investment portfolio. Levelling Policy The portfolio companies in which the Company invests may offer their shares in IPOs. The Company’s shares in such portfolio companies are typically subject to lock-up agreements for 180 days following the IPO. Upon the IPO date, the Company transfers its investment from Level 3 to Level 1 due to the presence of an active market, or Level 2 if limited by the lock-up agreement. The Company prices the investment at the closing price on a public exchange as of the measurement date. In situations where there are legal or contractual restrictions on the sale or use of such security that under ASC 820-10-35 (as modified by ASU 2022-03) should be incorporated into the security’s fair value measurement as a characteristic of the security that would transfer to market participants who would buy the security, the Company will classify the investment as Level 2 subject to an appropriate DLOM to reflect the restrictions upon sale. The Company transfers investments between levels based on the fair value at the beginning of the measurement period in accordance with FASB ASC 820. For investments transferred out of Level 3 due to an IPO, the Company transfers these investments based on their fair value at the IPO date. Securities Transactions Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the transaction for the purchase or sale of the securities is entered into by the Company ( i.e. , trade date). Securities transactions outside conventional channels, such as private transactions, are recorded as of the date the Company obtains the right to demand the securities purchased or to collect the proceeds from a sale and incurs an obligation to pay for securities purchased or to deliver securities sold, respectively. Valuation of Other Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of the Company’s other, non-investment financial instruments, consisting of cash, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Cash The Company custodies its cash with Western Alliance Trust Company, N.A., and may place cash in demand deposit accounts with other high-quality financial institutions. The cash held in these accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit. The Company believes the risk of loss associated with any uninsured balance is remote. Escrow Proceeds Receivable A portion of the proceeds from the sale of portfolio investments are held in escrow as a recourse for indemnity claims that may arise under the sale agreement or other related transaction contingencies. Amounts held in escrow are held at estimated realizable value and included in net realized gains/(losses) on investments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the period in which they occurred and are adjusted as needed. Any remaining escrow proceeds balances from these transactions reasonably expected to be received are reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as escrow proceeds receivable. Escrow proceeds receivable resulting from contingent consideration are to be recognized when the amount of the contingent consideration becomes realized or realizable. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $ 63,745 and $ 309,293 , respectively, in escrow proceeds receivable. 19 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 Deferred Financing Costs The Company records fees and expenses incurred in connection with financing or capital raising activities relating to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form N-2 as deferred financing costs. The Company also incurred additional offering costs in connection with its 6.00 % Notes due 2026. The Company defers these offering costs until capital is raised pursuant to the shelf registration statement or as the shelf registration statement expires. For equity capital raised, the offering costs reduce paid-in capital resulting from the offering. These costs are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the respective life of the financing instrument. For modifications to a financing instrument, any unamortized origination costs are expensed . The Company records fees and expenses incurred in connection with debt capital raises as deferred debt issuance costs. Such costs are reflected in the carrying value of the related debt instrument, and not the Company’s deferred financing costs. For debt capital raised, the associated offering costs are deferred and amortized as part of interest expense using the straight-line method over the life of the debt instrument. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had deferred financing costs of $ 492,952 and $ 594,726 , respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. SCHEDULE OF DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Deferred debt issuance costs $ 1,432,112 $ 1,254,793 Deferred financing costs 492,952 594,726 Total $ 1,925,064 $ 1,849,519 Refer to “Note 10 — Debt Capital Activities” for further detail regarding the Company’s deferred debt issuance costs. Operating Leases & Related Deposits The Company accounts for its operating leases as prescribed by ASC 842, Leases , which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset on the balance sheet, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a corresponding lease liability for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. The lease expense is presented as a single lease cost that is amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. Non-lease components (maintenance, property tax, insurance and parking) are not included in the lease cost. On September 1, 2024, the Company extended the previous operating lease for office space, for an additional term of three years and three months, expiring March 31, 2028 . The Company has recorded a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability for the operating lease obligation. These amounts have been discounted using the rate implicit in the lease. Refer to “Note 7—Commitments and Contingencies— Operating Leases and Related Deposits ” for further detail. Stock-based Compensation Using the fair value recognition provisions as prescribed by ASC 718, Stock Compensation , stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the appropriate service period. Determining the fair value of stock-based awards requires considerable judgment, including estimating the expected term of stock options and the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price. Differences between actual results and these estimates could have a material effect on the Company’s financial results. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur. Refer to “Note 11—Stock-Based Compensation” for further detail. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes gains or losses on the sale of investments using the specific identification method. The Company recognizes interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis. The Company recognizes dividend income on the ex-dividend date. Investment Transaction Costs and Escrow Deposits Commissions and other costs associated with an investment transaction, including legal expenses not reimbursed by the portfolio company, are included in the cost basis of purchases and deducted from the proceeds of sales. The Company makes certain acquisitions on secondary markets, which may involve making deposits to escrow accounts until certain conditions are met, including the underlying private company’s right of first refusal. If the underlying private company does not exercise or assign its right of first refusal and all other conditions are met, then the funds in the escrow account are delivered to the seller and the account is closed. Such transactions would be reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as escrow deposits. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had no escrow deposits. 20 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation of Investments Unrealized appreciation or depreciation is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the investment and the cost basis of such investment. U.S. Federal and State Income Taxes The Company elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2014, has qualified to be treated as a RIC for subsequent taxable years and intends to continue to operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders at least the sum of 90% of its investment company taxable income (“ICTI”), including payment-in-kind interest income, as defined by the Code, and 90% of its net tax-exempt interest income (which is the excess of its gross tax-exempt interest income over certain disallowed deductions) for each taxable year (the “Annual Distribution Requirement”). Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward into the next tax year ICTI in excess of current year dividend distributions. Any such carryforward ICTI must be distributed on or before December 31 of the subsequent tax year to which it was carried forward. If the Company meets the Annual Distribution Requirement, but does not distribute (or is not deemed to have distributed) each calendar year a sum of (1) 98% of its net ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years (the “Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement”), it generally will be required to pay an excise tax equal to 4% of the amount by which the Excise Tax Avoidance Requirement exceeds the distributions for the year. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income will exceed estimated current year dividend distributions from such taxable income, the Company will accrue excise taxes, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned using an annual effective excise tax rate. The annual effective excise tax rate is determined by dividing the estimated annual excise tax by the estimated annual taxable income. So long as the Company qualifies and maintains its tax treatment as a RIC, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned by the RIC will represent obligations of the Company’s investors and will not be reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. Included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, the Taxable Subsidiaries are taxable subsidiaries, regardless of whether the Company is a RIC. These Taxable Subsidiaries are not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expenses as a result of their ownership of the portfolio companies. Such income tax expenses and deferred taxes, if any, will be reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. If it is not treated as a RIC, the Company will be taxed as a regular corporation (a “C Corporation”) under Subchapter C of the Code for such taxable year. If the Company has previously qualified as a RIC but is subsequently unable to qualify for treatment as a RIC, and certain amelioration provisions are not applicable, the Company would be subject to tax on all of its taxable income (including its net capital gains) at regular corporate rates. The Company would not be able to deduct distributions to stockholders, nor would it be required to make distributions. Distributions, including distributions of net long-term capital gain, would generally be taxable to its stockholders as ordinary dividend income to the extent of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits. Subject to certain limitations under the Code, corporate stockholders would be eligible to claim a dividend received deduction with respect to such dividend; non-corporate stockholders would generally be able to treat such dividends as “qualified dividend income,” which is subject to reduced rates of U.S. federal income tax. Distributions in excess of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits would be treated first as a return of capital to the extent of the stockholder’s adjusted tax basis, and any remaining distributions would be treated as a capital gain. In order to requalify as a RIC, in addition to the other requirements discussed above, the Company would be required to distribute all of its previously undistributed earnings attributable to the period it failed to qualify as a RIC by the end of the first year that it intends to requalify for tax treatment as a RIC. If the Company fails to requalify for tax treatment as a RIC for a period greater than two taxable years, it may be subject to regular corporate tax on any net built-in gains with respect to certain of its assets (i.e., the excess of the aggregate gains, including items of income, over aggregate losses that would have been realized with respect to such assets if the Company had been liquidated) that it elects to recognize on requalification or when recognized over the next five years. Refer to “Note 9—Income Taxes” for further details. 21 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 Per Share Information Net change in net assets resulting from operations per basic common share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period presented. Diluted net change in net assets resulting from operations per common share is computed by dividing net increase/(decrease) in net assets resulting from operations for the period adjusted to include the pre-tax effects of interest incurred on potentially dilutive securities, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus any potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the period. When applicable, the Company uses the if-converted method in accordance with FASB ASC 260 , Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”), to determine the number of potentially dilutive shares outstanding. Refer to “Note 6—Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations per Common Share—Basic and Diluted” for further detail. Recently Issued or Adopted Accounting Standards In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, “Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions.” This change prospectively prohibits entities from taking into account certain contractual restrictions on the sale of equity securities when estimating fair value and introduces required disclosures for such transactions. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and applied prospectively. The Company adopted the requirements of ASU 2022-03 during the period ended March 31, 2024. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The amendments in this update require more disaggregated information on income taxes paid. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted; however, the Company has not elected to adopt this provision as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is still assessing the impact of the new guidance. However, it does not expect ASU 2023-09 to have a material impact on the Company’s future financial statements. In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards.” ASU 2024-01 clarifies how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award is within the scope of Topic 718 or not a share-based payment arrangement and therefore within the scope of other guidance. ASU 2024-01 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted; however, the Company has not elected to adopt this provision as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance. However, it does not expect ASU 2024-01 to have a material impact on the Company’s future financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023- 07”),” which enhances disclosure requirements about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”). ASU 2023-07, among other things, (i) requires a single segment public entity to provide all of the disclosures as required by Topic 280, (ii) requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources and (iii) provides the ability for a public entity to elect more than one performance measure. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning with the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted and retrospective adoption is required for all prior periods presented. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance, however, the Company does not expect a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards and any that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. NOTE 3— RELATED-PARTY ARRANGEMENTS The Company’s executive officers and directors serve or may serve as officers, directors, or managers of entities that operate in a line of business similar to the Company’s, including new entities that may be formed in the future. Accordingly, they may have obligations to investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which might not be in the best interests of the Company or the Company’s stockholders. 22 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 The 1940 Act prohibits the Company from participating in certain negotiated co-investments with certain affiliates unless it receives an order from the SEC permitting it to do so. As a BDC, the Company is prohibited under the 1940 Act from participating in certain transactions with certain of its affiliates without the prior approval of the Board of Directors, including its independent directors, and, in some cases, the SEC. The affiliates with which the Company may be prohibited from transacting include its officers, directors, and employees and any person controlling or under common control with the Company, subject to certain exceptions. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may enter into transactions with portfolio companies that may be considered related-party transactions. To ensure that the Company does not engage in any prohibited transactions with any persons affiliated with the Company, the Company has implemented certain written policies and procedures whereby the Company’s executive officers screen each of the Company’s transactions for any possible affiliations between the proposed portfolio investment, the Company, companies controlled by the Company, and the Company’s executive officers and directors.

In addition, Ms. Findley and Claire Councill, a former investment professional of the Company until her departure on April 15, 2022, were non-controlling members of the board of directors of Colombier Acquisition Corp., a SPAC, which was sponsored by Colombier Sponsor LLC, one of the Company’s portfolio companies until its dissolution upon completion of Colombier Acquisition Corp.’s business combination into PSQ Holdings, Inc. (d/b/a PublicSquare). As of September 30, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s investment in PSQ Holdings, Inc. (d/b/a PublicSquare) was $ 4,457,988 .

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 Significant Unobservable Inputs for Level 3 Assets and Liabilities In accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement , the tables below provide quantitative information about the fair value measurements of the Company’s Level 3 assets as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the tables below, according to the Company’s valuation policy, the Board of Directors may also use other valuation techniques and methodologies when determining the fair value measurements of the Company’s assets. The tables below are not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather provide information on the significant Level 3 inputs as they relate to the fair value measurements of the Company’s assets. To the extent an unobservable input is not reflected in the tables below, such input is deemed insignificant with respect to the Company’s Level 3 fair value measurements as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Significant changes in the inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement, depending on the input and the materiality of the investment. Refer to “Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies— Investments at Fair Value ” for more detail.

In considering multiple valuation approaches (and consequently, multiple valuation techniques), the valuation approaches and techniques are not likely to change from one period of measurement to the next; however, the weighting of each in determining the final fair value of a Level 3 investment may change based on recent events or transactions. The hybrid approach may also consider certain risk weightings to account for the uncertainty of future events. Refer to “Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies— Investments at Fair Value ” for more detail. (2) The Board of Directors considers all relevant information that can reasonably be obtained when determining the fair value of Level 3 investments. Due to any given portfolio company’s information rights, changes in capital structure, recent events, transactions, or liquidity events, the type and availability of unobservable inputs may change. Increases/(decreases) in revenue multiples, earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) multiples, time to expiration, and stock price/strike price would result in higher (lower) fair values, all else equal. Decreases/(increases) in discount rates, volatility, and annual risk rates, would result in higher (lower) fair values, all else equal. The market approach utilizes market value (revenue and EBIT) multiples of publicly traded comparable companies and available precedent sales transactions of comparable companies. The Board of Directors carefully considers numerous factors when selecting the appropriate companies whose multiples are used to value the Company’s portfolio companies. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of organization, similarity to the business being valued, relevant risk factors, as well as size, profitability and growth expectations. In general, precedent transactions include recent rounds of financing, recent purchases made by the Company, and tender offers.

Total return based on net asset value is based upon the change in net asset value per share between the opening and ending net asset values per share in the period, adjusted for dividends and equity issuances. (3) Financial highlights for periods of less than one year are annualized and the ratios of operating expenses to average net assets and net investment loss to average net assets are adjusted accordingly. Because the ratios are calculated for the Company’s common stock taken as a whole, an individual investor’s ratios may vary from these ratios. NOTE 9— INCOME TAXES The Company elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 2014 and has qualified to be treated as a RIC for subsequent taxable years. The Company intends to continue to operate so as to qualify to be subject to tax treatment as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and, as such, will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of taxable income (including gains) distributed as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to stockholders. Taxable income includes the Company’s taxable interest, dividend and fee income, reduced by certain deductions, as well as taxable net realized investment gains. Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as such gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized. To qualify and be subject to tax as a RIC, the Company is required to meet certain income and asset diversification tests in addition to distributing dividends of an amount generally at least equal to 90 % of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code and determined without regard to any deduction for distributions paid, to its stockholders. The amount to be paid out as a distribution is determined by the Board of Directors each quarter and is based upon the annual earnings estimated by the management of the Company. To the extent that the Company’s earnings fall below the amount of dividend distributions declared, however, a portion of the total amount of the Company’s distributions for the fiscal year may be deemed a return of capital for tax purposes to the Company’s stockholders. 41 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 As a RIC, the Company will be subject to a 4 % nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on certain undistributed income unless the Company makes distributions treated as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a timely manner to its stockholders in respect of each calendar year of an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gain net income (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the 1-year period ending October 31 of each such calendar year and (3) any ordinary income and net capital gains for preceding years, but not distributed during such years and on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax. The Company will not be subject to this excise tax on any amount on which the Company incurred U.S. federal corporate income tax (such as the tax imposed on a RIC’s retained net capital gains). Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a taxable year, the Company may choose to carry over taxable income in excess of current taxable year distributions from such taxable income into the next taxable year and incur a 4 % excise tax on such taxable income, as required. The maximum amount of excess taxable income that may be carried over for distribution in the next taxable year under the Code is the total amount of distributions paid in the following taxable year, subject to certain declaration and payment guidelines. To the extent the Company chooses to carry over taxable income into the next taxable year, distributions declared and paid by the Company in a taxable year may differ from the Company’s taxable income for that taxable year as such distributions may include the distribution of current taxable year taxable income, the distribution of prior taxable year taxable income carried over into and distributed in the current taxable year, or returns of capital. The Company has taxable subsidiaries which hold certain portfolio investments in an effort to limit potential legal liability and/or comply with source-income type requirements contained in the RIC tax provisions of the Code. These taxable subsidiaries are consolidated for GAAP and the portfolio investments held by the taxable subsidiaries are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and are recorded at fair value. These taxable subsidiaries are not consolidated with the Company for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expense, or benefit, and tax assets and liabilities as a result of their ownership of certain portfolio investments. Any income generated by these taxable subsidiaries generally would be subject to tax at normal corporate tax rates based on its taxable income. The Company intends to timely distribute to its stockholders substantially all of its annual taxable income for each year, except that it may retain certain net capital gains for reinvestment and, depending upon the level of taxable income earned in a year, may choose to carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following year and pay any applicable U.S. federal excise tax. The Company is required to include net deferred tax provision/benefit in calculating its total expenses even though these net deferred taxes are not currently payable/receivable. For U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, a portion of the Taxable Subsidiaries’ net operating loss carryforwards and basis differences may be subject to limitations on annual utilization in case of a change in ownership, as defined by federal and state law. The amount of such limitations, if any, has not been determined. Accordingly, the amount of such tax attributes available to offset future profits may be significantly less than the actual amounts of the tax attributes. The Company and the Taxable Subsidiaries identified their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. federal, New York, and California and may be subject to the taxing authorities’ examination for the tax years 2020–2023 in New York and 2019–2023 in California, respectively. Further, the Company and the Taxable Subsidiaries accrue all interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as incurred. As of September 30, 2024, there were no material interest or penalties incurred related to uncertain tax positions. 42 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP.

In accordance with the exemptive relief granted to the Company by the SEC on June 16, 2020 with respect to the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company is generally authorized to (i) issue restricted shares as part of the compensation package for certain of its employees, officers and all directors, including non-employee directors (collectively, the “Participants”), (ii) issue options to acquire shares of its common stock (“Options”) to certain employees, officers and employee directors as a part of such compensation packages, (iii) withhold shares of the Company’s common stock or purchase shares of common stock from the Participants to satisfy tax withholding obligations relating to the vesting of restricted shares or the exercise of Options granted to the certain Participants pursuant to the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, and (iv) permit the Participants to pay the exercise price of Options granted to them with shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, each non-employee director will receive an annual grant of $ 50,000 worth of restricted shares of common stock (based on the closing stock price of the common stock on the grant date). Each grant of $ 50,000 in restricted shares will vest, in full, if the non-employee director is in continuous service as a director of the Company through the anniversary of such grant (or, if earlier, the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders that is closest to the anniversary of such grant). During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company granted 48,192 restricted shares to the Company’s non-employee directors pursuant to the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. Additionally, on May 31, 2024, 60,060 restricted shares related to the 2023 non-employee director grants vested. Compensation expense associated with the restricted shares is recognized on a quarterly basis over the respective vesting periods. Other than such restricted shares granted to non-employee directors, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors may determine the time or times at which Options and restricted shares granted to other Participants will vest or become payable or exercisable, as applicable. The exercise price of each Option will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted. However, any optionee who owns more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding common stock (a “10% Stockholder”), will not be eligible for the grant of an incentive stock option unless the exercise price of the incentive stock option is at least 110% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Generally, no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the date of grant. In the case of an Option granted to a 10% Stockholder, the term of an incentive stock option will be for no more than five years from the date of grant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not grant any restricted shares to the Company’s officers pursuant to the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. 44 TABLE OF CONTENTS SURO CAPITAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 1,969,534 and $ 2,300,237 , respectively, not including executive and employee forfeits. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were approximately $ 3,080,353 and $ 4,849,887 , respectively, of total unrecognized compensation costs related to the restricted share grants. Compensation expense associated with the restricted shares is recognized on a quarterly basis over the respective vesting periods. The following table summarizes the activities for the Company’s restricted share grants for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 under the Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan: SCHEDULE OF EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN Number of Restricted Shares Outstanding as of December 31, 2023 (1) 624,963 Granted 48,192 Vested (2) ( 201,631 ) Forfeited ( 23,474 ) Outstanding as of September 30, 2024 448,050 Vested as of September 30, 2024 715,203 (1) Not including unvested dividends. (2) The balance of vested shares reflects the total shares vested during the period and has not been reduced for those vested shares forfeited at time of vest related to net share settlement. The Amended & Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan provides for the concept of “net share settlement.” Specifically, it provides that the Company is authorized to withhold the Common Stock at the time the restricted shares are vested and taxed in satisfaction of the Participant’s tax obligations.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2024 The Company is frequently in negotiations with various private companies with respect to investments in such companies. Investments in private companies are generally subject to satisfaction of applicable closing conditions. In the case of secondary market transactions, such closing conditions may include approval of the issuer, waiver or failure to exercise rights of first refusal by the issuer and/or its stockholders and termination rights by the seller or the Company. Equity investments made through the secondary market may involve making deposits in escrow accounts until the applicable closing conditions are satisfied, at which time the escrow accounts will close and such equity investments will be effectuated. 6.00% Notes due 2026 - Note Repurchase Program Between October 1, 2024 and October 4, 2024, the Company repurchased an additional 201,446 units of the 6.00% Notes due 2026 under the Note Repurchase Program. As of November 7, 2024, the aggregate principal dollar amount of 6.00% Notes due 2026 that may yet be repurchased by the Company under the Note Repurchase Program is approximately $ 4.7 million. 6.50% Convertible Notes Due 2029 Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, on October 9, 2024 the Company issued and sold, and the Purchaser purchased, $ 5.0 million in aggregate principal amount of additional 6.50 % Convertible Notes due 2029 (the “Additional Notes”). The Additional Notes are treated as a single series with the Company’s outstanding 6.50 % Convertible Notes due 2029 (the “Initial Notes”) and have the same terms as the Initial Notes. The Additional Notes are fungible and rank equally with the Initial Notes. Upon issuance of the Additional Notes, the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.50 % Convertible Notes due 2029 became $ 30.0 million. Share Repurchase Program On October 29, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an extension of the Company’s discretionary Share Repurchase Program until the earlier of (i) October 31, 2025 or (ii) the repurchase of $ 64.3 million in aggregate amount of the Company’s common stock. The timing and number of shares to be repurchased pursuant to the Company’s discretionary Share Repurchase Program will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions and alternative investment opportunities. The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason and does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares of its common stock. Under the Share Repurchase Program, the Company may repurchase its outstanding common stock in the open market, provided that it complies with the prohibitions under its insider trading policies and procedures and the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the Exchange Act. As of November 7, 2024, the dollar value of shares that remained available to be purchased by the Company under the Share Repurchase Program was approximately $ 25.0 million. NOTE 13— SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL DATA Summarized Financial Information of Unconsolidated Subsidiaries In accordance with the SEC’s Regulation S-X and GAAP, the Company is not permitted to consolidate any subsidiary or other entity that is not an investment company, including those in which the Company has a controlling interest; however, the Company must disclose certain financial information related to any subsidiaries or other entities that are considered to be “significant subsidiaries” under the applicable rules of Regulation S-X. The Company’s controlled portfolio company as of September 30, 2024, Colombier Sponsor II LLC, did not meet the definition of a “significant subsidiary” as set forth in Rule 1-02(w)(2) of Regulation S-X. For comparability purposes, the Company has omitted the previously disclosed summarized financial information of the Company’s significant subsidiaries for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 as the Company’s significant subsidiaries would not have been considered significant subsidiaries under Rule 1-02(w)(2). 46 TABLE OF CONTENTS Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Forward-Looking Statements This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about us, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “will,” “may,” “continue,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “targets,” “projects,” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, statements as to: ● our future operating results; ● our dependence upon our management team and key investment professionals; ● our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies; ● our ability to manage our business and future growth; ● the impact of investments that we expect to make; ● risks related to investments in growth-stage companies, other venture capital-backed companies, and generally U.S. companies; ● our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties; ● our ability to make distributions; ● the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its impact on the industries in which we invest; ● risks related to the uncertainty of the value of our portfolio investments; ● the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives; ● change in political, economic or industry conditions; ● our expected financings and investments; ● the impact of changes in laws or regulations (including the interpretation thereof), including tax laws, on our operations and/or the operation of our portfolio companies; ● the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital; ● risks related to market volatility, including general price and volume fluctuations in stock markets; and ● the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: ● an economic downturn could impair our portfolio companies’ ability to continue to operate, which could lead to the loss of some or all of our investments in such portfolio companies; 47 TABLE OF CONTENTS ● an economic downturn could disproportionately impact the market sectors in which a significant portion of our portfolio is concentrated, causing us to suffer losses in our portfolio; ● a contraction of available credit and/or an inability to access the equity markets could impair our investment activities; ● increases in inflation or an inflationary economic environment could adversely affect our portfolio companies’ operating results, causing us to suffer losses in our portfolio; ● interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly because we use leverage as part of our investment strategy; and ● the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, our annual report on Form 10-K, and in our other filings with the SEC. Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. Important assumptions include our ability to originate new investments, certain margins and levels of profitability and the availability of additional capital. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described or identified in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and our annual report on Form 10-K in the “Risk Factors” sections. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto contained elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Overview We are an internally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Our investment objective is to maximize our portfolio’s total return, principally by seeking capital gains on our equity and equity-related investments, and to a lesser extent, income from debt investments. We invest principally in the equity securities of what we believe to be rapidly growing venture capital-backed emerging companies. We acquire our investments through direct investments in prospective portfolio companies, secondary marketplaces for private companies, negotiations with selling stockholders, and through investments in SPVs and investment funds that invest directly in the equity or debt of a single private issuer. In addition, we may invest in private credit and in the founders equity, founders warrants, venture capital investment funds, and private investment in public equity (“PIPE”) transactions of special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”). We may also invest on an opportunistic basis in select publicly traded equity securities or certain non-U.S. companies that otherwise meet our investment criteria, subject to applicable requirements of the 1940 Act. To the extent we make investments in private equity funds and hedge funds that are excluded from the definition of “investment company” under the 1940 Act by Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act, we will limit such investments to no more than 15% of our net assets. In regard to the regulatory requirements for BDCs under the 1940 Act, some of these investments may not qualify as investments in “eligible portfolio companies,” and thus may not be considered “qualifying assets.” “Eligible portfolio companies” generally include U.S. companies that are not investment companies and that do not have securities listed on a national exchange. If at any time less than 70% of our gross assets are comprised of qualifying assets, including as a result of an increase in the value of any non-qualifying assets or decrease in the value of any qualifying assets, we would generally not be permitted to acquire any additional non-qualifying assets until such time as 70% of our then-current gross assets were comprised of qualifying assets. We would not be required, however, to dispose of any non-qualifying assets in such circumstances. Our investment philosophy is based on a disciplined approach of identifying promising investments in high-growth, venture-backed companies across several key industry themes which may include, among others, Software-as-a-Service, Artificial Intelligence, Consumer Goods & Services, Education Technology, Logistics & Supply Chain, Financial Technology & Services, and SuRo Sports. Our investment decisions are based on a disciplined analysis of available information regarding each potential portfolio company’s business operations, focusing on the portfolio company’s growth potential, the quality of recurring revenues, and path to profitability, as well as an understanding of key market fundamentals. Venture capital funds or other institutional investors have invested in the vast majority of companies we evaluate. 48 TABLE OF CONTENTS We seek to deploy capital primarily in the form of non-controlling equity and equity-related investments, including common stock, warrants, preferred stock and similar forms of senior equity, which may or may not be convertible into a portfolio company’s common equity, and convertible debt securities with a significant equity component. Typically, our preferred stock investments are non-income producing, have different voting rights than our common stock investments and are generally convertible into common stock at our discretion. As our investment strategy is primarily focused on equity positions, our investments generally do not produce current income and therefore we may be dependent on future capital raising to meet our operating needs if no other source of liquidity is available. We seek to create a low-turnover portfolio that includes investments in companies representing a broad range of investment themes. Our History We formed in 2010 as a Maryland corporation and operate as an internally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company. Our investment activities are supervised by our Board of Directors and managed by our executive officers and investments professionals, all of which are our employees. Our date of inception was January 6, 2011, which is the date we commenced development stage activities. We commenced operations as a BDC upon completion of our IPO in May 2011 and began our investment operations during the second quarter of 2011. On and effective March 12, 2019, our Board of Directors approved our internalization (the “Internalization”), and we began operating as an internally managed non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. Our Board of Directors approved the Internalization in order to better align the interests of our stockholders with its management. As an internally managed BDC, we are managed by our employees, rather than the employees of an external investment adviser, thereby allowing for greater transparency to stockholders through robust disclosure regarding our compensation structure. As a result of the Internalization, we no longer pay any fees or expenses under an investment advisory agreement or administration agreement, and instead pay the operating costs associated with employing investment management professionals including, without limitation, compensation expenses related to salaries, discretionary bonuses and restricted stock grants. Portfolio and Investment Activity Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 The value of our investment portfolio will change over time due to changes in the fair value of our underlying investments, as well as changes in the composition of our portfolio resulting from purchases of new and follow-on investments and the sales of existing investments. The fair value as of September 30, 2024 of all of our portfolio investments was $199,302,778. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we funded investments in an aggregate amount of $57,500,344 (not including capitalized transaction costs) as shown in the following table: Portfolio Company Investment Transaction Date Gross Payments Supplying Demand, Inc.

The net decrease between periods was primarily due to the cessation of interest income from short-term U.S. Treasury bills, and from Architect Capital PayJoy SPV, LLC following the redemption of our investment in June 2024. Additional decreases in interest income were from Xgroup Holdings Limited (d/b/a Xpoint), Shogun Enterprises, Inc. (d/b/a Hearth), and the repayment in full of the Residential Homes for Rent, LLC (d/b/a Second Avenue) term loan as of December 26, 2023, as well as a decrease in dividend income from NewLake Capital Partners, Inc. (f/k/a GreenAcreage Real Estate Corp.) following our complete exit in December 2023. The decreases were offset by an increase in interest income received on cash, and an increase in PIK dividend income from CW Opportunity 2 LP during the three months ended September 30, 2024, relative to the three months ended ended September 30, 2023. Investment income decreased to $3,444,161 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from $4,137,046 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The net decrease between periods was primarily due to a decrease in interest income from short-term U.S. Treasury bills, Xgroup Holdings Limited (d/b/a Xpoint), and Shogun Enterprises, Inc. (d/b/a Hearth), a repayment in full of the Residential Homes for Rent, LLC (d/b/a Second Avenue) term loan as of December 26, 2023, and a decrease in dividend income from Aventine Property Group and NewLake Capital Partners, Inc. (f/k/a GreenAcreage Real Estate Corp.) following our complete exit in December 2023. The decrease was offset by an increase in interest income received on cash and an increase in PIK dividend income from CW Opportunity 2 LP during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, relative to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Operating Expenses Total operating expenses decreased to $4,096,590 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $4,134,172 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in operating expense was primarily due to decreases in compensation expense and interest expense, offset by an increase in professional fees and directors’ fees during the three months ended September 30, 2024, relative to the three months ended September 30, 2023. Total operating expenses decreased to $13,530,561 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 from $14,832,577 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in operating expense was primarily due to decreases in income tax expense related to blocker corporations, professional fees, other expenses, and interest expense, offset by a slight increase in directors’ fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, relative to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Net Investment Loss For the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized a net investment loss of $3,207,873, compared to a net investment loss of $2,668,426 for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

In the case of secondary market transactions, such closing conditions may include approval of the issuer, waiver or failure to exercise rights of first refusal by the issuer and/or its stockholders and termination rights by the seller or us. Equity investments made through the secondary market may involve making deposits in escrow accounts until the applicable closing conditions are satisfied, at which time the escrow accounts will close and such equity investments will be effectuated.

The increase in cash was primarily due to maturity of our investments in short-term U.S. Treasury bills, the sale or exit of investments, and other investment income received, offset by the purchase of new investments, repurchase of our common stock pursuant to a modified “Dutch Auction” tender offer (the “Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer”), payment of our operating expenses, and payment of interest on the 6.00% Notes due 2026 and 6.50% Convertible Notes due 2029. For additional information relating to the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer, see “Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer” below and “Note 5 - Common Stock” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024. Currently, we believe we have ample liquidity to support our near-term capital requirements. Consistent with past and current practices, we will continue to evaluate our overall liquidity position and take proactive steps to maintain the appropriate liquidity position based upon the current circumstances. Contractual Obligations A summary of our significant contractual payment obligations as of September 30, 2024 is as follows: Payments Due By Period (in millions) Total Less than 1 year 1–3 years 3–5 years More than 5 years 6.00% Notes due 2026 (1) $ 49.7 $ — $ 49.7 $ — $ — 6.50% Convertible Notes due 2029 (2) $ 25.0 $ — $ — $ 25.0 $ — Operating lease liability 0.5 0.1 0.3 0.1 — Total $ 75.2 $ 0.1 $ 50.0 $ 25.1 $ — (1) Reflects the principal balance payable to investors for the 6.00% Notes due 2026 as of September 30, 2024.

Share Repurchase Program During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock under the discretionary open-market share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 186,493 shares of our common stock under the Share Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2024, the dollar value of shares that remained available to be purchased under the Share Repurchase Program was approximately $20.7 million. On August 7, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized an extension of, and an increase in the amount of shares of our common stock that may be repurchased under the discretionary Share Repurchase Program until the earlier of (i) October 31, 2024 or (ii) the repurchase of $60.0 million in aggregate amount of our common stock. Under the Share Repurchase Program, we may repurchase our outstanding common stock in the open market, provided that we comply with the prohibitions under our insider trading policies and procedures and the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules promulgated thereunder. For more information on the Share Repurchase Program, see “Note 5—Common Stock” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024. 55 TABLE OF CONTENTS Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer On February 20, 2024, we commenced the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of our common stock from our stockholders, which expired on April 1, 2024. In accordance with the terms of the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer, we selected the lowest price per share of not less than $4.00 per share and not greater than $5.00 per share. Pursuant to the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer, we repurchased 2,000,000 shares, representing 7.9% of our then-outstanding shares, on or about April 5, 2024 at a price of $4.70 per share. We used available cash to fund the purchase of our shares of common stock in the Modified Dutch Auction Tender Offer and to pay for all related fees and expenses. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, including any risk management of commodity pricing or other hedging practices. However, we may employ hedging and other risk management techniques in the future. Equity Issuances and Debt Capital Activities At-the-Market Offering On July 29, 2020, we entered into an At-the-Market Sales Agreement, dated July 29, 2020 (as amended, the “Sales Agreement”), with BTIG, LLC, JMP Securities LLC, and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. (collectively, the “Agents”). Under the Initial Sales Agreement, we may, but have no obligation to, issue and sell up to $150.0 million in aggregate amount of shares of our common stock (the “Shares”) from time to time through the Agents or to them as principal for their own account (the “ATM Program”). We intend to use the net proceeds from the ATM Program to make investments in portfolio companies in accordance with our investment objective and strategy and for general corporate purposes. 56 TABLE OF CONTENTS During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we did not issue or sell Shares under the ATM program. As of September 30, 2024, up to approximately $98.8 million in aggregate amount of the Shares remain available for sale under the ATM Program. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we did not issue or sell Shares under the ATM program. Refer to “Note 5—Common Stock” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024 for more information regarding the ATM Program. 6.00% Notes due 2026 - Note Repurchase Program On December 17, 2021, we issued $ 70.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00 % Notes due 2026, which bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.00% per year, payable quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30, and December 30 of each year, commencing on March 30, 2022. On December 21, 2021, we issued an additional $5.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Notes due 2026. We received approximately $73.0 million in proceeds from the offering, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. The 6.00% Notes due 2026 have a maturity date of December 30, 2026, unless previously repurchased or redeemed in accordance with their terms. We have the right to redeem the 6.00% Notes due 2026, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, on or after December 30, 2024 at a redemption price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest. On August 6, 2024, our Board of Directors approved the Note Repurchase Program, which allows us to repurchase up to 46.67%, or $35.0 million in aggregate principal amount, of our 6.00% Notes due 2026 through open market purchases, including block purchases, in such manner as will comply with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the Exchange Act.

None of the distribution represented a return of capital. We intend to focus on making equity-based investments from which we will derive primarily capital gains. As a consequence, we do not anticipate that we will pay distributions on a quarterly basis or become a predictable distributor of distributions, and we expect that our distributions, if any, will be much less consistent than the distributions of other BDCs that primarily make debt investments. If there are earnings or realized capital gains to be distributed, we intend to declare and pay a distribution at least annually. The amount of realized capital gains available for distribution to stockholders will be impacted by our tax status. Our current intention is to make any future distributions out of assets legally available therefrom in the form of additional shares of our common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan, except in the case of stockholders who elect to receive dividends and/or long-term capital gains distributions in cash. Under the dividend reinvestment plan, if a stockholder owns shares of common stock registered in its own name, the stockholder will have all cash distributions (net of any applicable withholding) automatically reinvested in additional shares of common stock unless the stockholder opts out of our dividend reinvestment plan by delivering a written notice to our dividend paying agent prior to the record date of the next dividend or distribution. Any distributions reinvested under the plan will nevertheless be treated as received by the U.S. stockholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, although no cash distribution has been made. As a result, if a stockholder does not elect to opt out of the dividend reinvestment plan, it will be required to pay applicable federal, state and local taxes on any reinvested dividends even though such stockholder will not receive a corresponding cash distribution. Stockholders that hold shares in the name of a broker or financial intermediary should contact the broker or financial intermediary regarding any election to receive distributions in cash. So long as we qualify and maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that we distribute at least annually to our stockholders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned by the RIC will represent obligations of our investors and will not be reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. See “Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies— U.S. Federal and State Income Taxes ” and “Note 9—Income Taxes” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024 for more information. The Taxable Subsidiaries included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are taxable subsidiaries, regardless of whether we are taxed as a RIC. These taxable subsidiaries are not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expenses as a result of their ownership of the portfolio companies. Such income tax expenses and deferred taxes, if any, will be reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements. 59 TABLE OF CONTENTS Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies Critical accounting policies and practices are the policies that are both most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. These include estimates of the fair value of our Level 3 investments and other estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. It is likely that changes in these estimates will occur in the near term. Our estimates are inherently subjective in nature and actual results could differ materially from such estimates. See “Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024 for further detail regarding our critical accounting policies and recently issued or adopted accounting pronouncements. Related-Party Transactions See “Note 3—Related-Party Arrangements” to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2024 for more information. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Market Risk Our equity investments are primarily in growth companies that in many cases have short operating histories and are generally illiquid. In addition to the risk that these companies may fail to achieve their objectives, the price we may receive for these companies in private transactions may be significantly impacted by periods of disruption and instability in the capital markets. While these periods of disruption generally have little actual impact on the operating results of our equity investments, these events may significantly impact the prices that market participants will pay for our equity investments in private transactions. This may have a significant impact on the valuation of our equity investments. Valuation Risk Our investments may not have a readily available market quotation, as such term is defined in Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is possible that the difference could be material. In addition, if we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material. Interest Rate Risk We are subject to financial market risks, which could include, to the extent we utilize leverage with variable rate structures, changes in interest rates. As we invest primarily in equity rather than debt instruments, we would not expect fluctuations in interest rates to directly impact the return on our portfolio investments, although any significant change in market interest rates could potentially have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the portfolio companies in which we invest. As of September 30, 2024, all of our debt investments and outstanding borrowings bore fixed rates of interest. Item 4. Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures As of September 30, 2024, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes 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 is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 60 PART II Item 1. Legal Proceedings We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, are any material legal proceedings threatened against us. From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Furthermore, third parties may seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of our portfolio companies. Our business is also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us. While the outcome of any future legal or regulatory proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that any such future proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations. Item 1A. Risk Factors Investing in our securities involves a number of significant risks. In addition to the other information contained in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2024, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Although the risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 represent the principal risks associated with an investment in us, they are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, might materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. Other than as stated below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Item 2.

The timing and number of shares to be repurchased will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions and alternative investment opportunities. The Share Repurchase Program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason and does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares of our common stock. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we did not repurchase shares of common stock under the Share Repurchase Program. As of September 30, 2024, the dollar value of shares that remained available to be purchased under the Share Repurchase Program was approximately $20.7 million.
