EXPLANATORY NOTE

Rand Capital Corporation (the “Corporation”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Form 10-K”) solely for the purpose of adding the “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm” issued by Freed Maxick P.C. (f/k/a Freed Maxick CPAs, P.C.) with respect to its audit of the financial statements of the Corporation as of December 31, 2024 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2024 (the “Report of the Predecessor Auditor”). As previously described in a Current Report on Form 8-K, on September 11, 2025, the Corporation replaced Freed Maxick P.C. as the Corporation’s independent registered public accounting firm with WithumSmith+Brown, PC, due to the acquisition of certain assets of Freed Maxick P.C. by WithumSmith+Brown, PC.

The Report of the Predecessor Auditor was inadvertently omitted from the 2025 Form 10-K. Other than as described above, no other changes have been made to the 2025 Form 10-K, including with respect to the financial statements of the Corporation included in the 2025 Form 10-K.

This Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the 2025 Form 10-K, does not update disclosures contained in the 2025 Form 10-K and does not modify or amend the 2025 Form 10-K except as specifically described above. Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment contains the complete text of each Item that is amended and certifications of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer required under Items 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, dated as of the date of this Amendment, as well as updated inline XBRL exhibits.

RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS

December 31, 2025 (Continued)

 

Notes to the Consolidated Schedule of Portfolio Investments

(a)
At December 31, 2025, restricted securities represented 100% of the fair value of the investment portfolio. Restricted securities are subject to one or more restrictions on resale and are not freely marketable. Type of investment for equity position is in the form of shares unless otherwise noted as units or interests, i.e., preferred shares, common shares.
(b)
The Date Acquired column indicates the date on which the Corporation first acquired an investment.
(c)
Each equity percentage estimates the Corporation’s ownership interest in the applicable portfolio investment. The estimated ownership is calculated based on the percent of outstanding voting securities held by the Corporation or the potential percentage of voting securities held by the Corporation upon exercise of warrants or conversion of debentures, or other available data. If applicable, the symbol “<1%” indicates that the Corporation holds an equity interest of less than one percent.
(d)
The Corporation’s investments are carried at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value and establishes guidelines for measuring fair value. At December 31, 2025, ASC 820 designates 100% of the Corporation’s investments as “Level 3” assets. Under the valuation policy of the Corporation, unrestricted publicly traded securities are valued at the closing price for these securities on the last trading day of the reporting period. Restricted securities are subject to restrictions on resale and are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our external investment advisor Rand Capital Management, LLC (“RCM”) and approved by the Board of Directors. Fair value is considered to be the amount that the Corporation may reasonably expect to receive for portfolio securities when sold on the valuation date. Valuations as of any particular date, however, are not necessarily indicative of amounts which may ultimately be realized as a result of future sales or other dispositions of securities and these favorable or unfavorable differences could be material. Among the factors considered in determining the fair value of restricted securities are the financial condition and operating results, projected operations, and other analytical data relating to the investment. Also considered are the market prices for unrestricted securities of the same class (if applicable) and other matters which may have an impact on the value of the portfolio company (see Note 2—Investments to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
(e)
As of December 31, 2025, the total cost of investment securities was approximately $57.1 million. Net unrealized depreciation was approximately ($8.6) million, which was comprised of $6.2 million of unrealized appreciation of investment securities and ($14.8) million of unrealized depreciation of investment securities. At December 31, 2025, the aggregate gross unrealized gain for federal income tax purposes was approximately $4.9 million and the aggregate gross unrealized loss for federal income tax purposes was ($13.5) million. The net unrealized loss for federal income tax purposes was ($8.6) million based on a tax cost of $56.1 million.
(f)
All of the Corporation’s portfolio assets are pledged as collateral for purposes of securing the Corporation’s senior secured revolving credit facility pursuant to a general security agreement, dated June 27, 2022, between the Corporation, the subsidiaries listed therein, and the Lender (as defined herein).
(g)
These investments are non-income producing. All other investments are income producing. Non-income producing investments have not generated cash payments of interest or dividends including LLC tax-related distributions within the last twelve months or are not expected to do so going forward. If a debt or a preferred equity investment fails to make its most recent payment, then the investment will also be classified as non-income producing.
(h)
These debt investments are on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2025.
(i)
Reduction in cost and fair value from previously reported balances reflects current principal repayment.
(j)
Represents interest due (amounts over $100,000) from investments included as interest receivable on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
(k)
Payment in kind (PIK) represents earned interest that is added to the cost basis of the investment and due at maturity. The amount of PIK earned is included in the interest rate detailed in the “Type of Investment” column, unless it has been noted with a (+), in which case the PIK is in addition to the face amount of interest due on the security.
(l)
Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments are investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.
(m)
Affiliate Investments are defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), as those Non-Control Investments in companies in which between 5% and 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation.
(n)
Control Investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in companies in which more than 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation or where greater than 50% of the board representation is maintained.
(o)
Equity holdings are held in a wholly owned (100%) “blocker corporation” subsidiary of Rand Capital Corporation for federal income tax and Regulated Investment Company (RIC) compliance purposes.
(p)
Indicates assets that the Corporation believes do not represent “qualifying assets” under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Qualifying assets must represent at least 70% of the Corporation’s total assets at the time of acquisition of any additional non-qualifying assets. The Corporation had no investments in non-qualifying assets as of December 31, 2025.
(q)
Investments classified as Level 3 for purposes of the fair value determination by RCM and approved by the Board of Directors.

RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONSOLIDATED SCHEDULE OF PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS

December 31, 2024 (Continued)

 

Notes to the Consolidated Schedule of Portfolio Investments

(a)
At December 31, 2024, restricted securities represented 100% of the fair value of the investment portfolio. Restricted securities are subject to one or more restrictions on resale and are not freely marketable. Type of investment for equity position is in the form of shares unless otherwise noted as units or interests, i.e., preferred shares, common shares.
(b)
The Date Acquired column indicates the date on which the Corporation first acquired an investment.
(c)
Each equity percentage estimates the Corporation’s ownership interest in the applicable portfolio investment. The estimated ownership is calculated based on the percent of outstanding voting securities held by the Corporation or the potential percentage of voting securities held by the Corporation upon exercise of warrants or conversion of debentures, or other available data. If applicable, the symbol “<1%” indicates that the Corporation holds an equity interest of less than one percent.
(d)
The Corporation’s investments are carried at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value and establishes guidelines for measuring fair value. At December 31, 2024, ASC 820 designates 100% of the Corporation’s investments as “Level 3” assets. Under the valuation policy of the Corporation, unrestricted publicly traded securities are valued at the closing price for these securities on the last trading day of the reporting period. Restricted securities are subject to restrictions on resale and are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our external investment advisor Rand Capital Management, LLC (“RCM”) and approved by the Board of Directors. Fair value is considered to be the amount that the Corporation may reasonably expect to receive for portfolio securities when sold on the valuation date. Valuations as of any particular date, however, are not necessarily indicative of amounts which may ultimately be realized as a result of future sales or other dispositions of securities and these favorable or unfavorable differences could be material. Among the factors considered in determining the fair value of restricted securities are the financial condition and operating results, projected operations, and other analytical data relating to the investment. Also considered are the market prices for unrestricted securities of the same class (if applicable) and other matters which may have an impact on the value of the portfolio company (see Note 2—Investments to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
(e)
These investments are non-income producing. All other investments are income producing. Non-income producing investments have not generated cash payments of interest or dividends including LLC tax-related distributions within the last twelve months or are not expected to do so going forward. If a debt or a preferred equity investment fails to make its most recent payment, then the investment will also be classified as non-income producing.
(f)
As of December 31, 2024, the total cost of investment securities was approximately $68.1 million. Net unrealized appreciation was approximately $2.7 million, which was comprised of $10.8 million of unrealized appreciation of investment securities and ($8.1) million of unrealized depreciation of investment securities. At December 31, 2024, the aggregate gross unrealized gain for federal income tax purposes was approximately $10.8 million and the aggregate gross unrealized loss for federal income tax purposes was ($7.0) million. The net unrealized gain for federal income tax purposes was $3.8 million based on a tax cost of $65.9 million.
(g)
All of the Corporation’s portfolio assets are pledged as collateral for purposes of securing the Corporation’s senior secured revolving credit facility pursuant to a general security agreement, dated June 27, 2022, between the Corporation, the subsidiaries listed therein, and the Lender (as defined herein).
(h)
Reduction in cost and fair value from previously reported balances reflects current principal repayment.
(i)
Represents interest due (amounts over $100,000) from investments included as interest receivable on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The Corporation had no such amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2024.
(j)
Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments are investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.
(k)
Affiliate Investments are defined by the 1940 Act, as those Non-Control investments in companies in which between 5% and 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation.
(l)
Payment in kind (PIK) represents earned interest that is added to the cost basis of the investment and due at maturity. The amount of PIK earned is included in the interest rate detailed in the “Type of Investment” column, unless it has been noted with a (+), in which case the PIK is in addition to the face amount of interest due on the security.
(m)
Equity holdings are held in a wholly owned (100%) “blocker corporation” subsidiary of Rand Capital Corporation for federal income tax and Regulated Investment Company (RIC) compliance purposes.
(n)
Indicates assets that the Corporation believes do not represent “qualifying assets” under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Qualifying assets must represent at least 70% of the Corporation’s total assets at the time of acquisition of any additional non-qualifying assets. The Corporation had no investments in non-qualifying assets as of December 31, 2024.
(o)
Control Investments are defined by the 1940 Act as investments in companies in which more than 25% of the voting securities are owned by the Corporation or where greater than 50% of the board representation is maintained.
(p)
Investments classified as Level 3 for purposes of the fair value determination by RCM and approved by the Board of Directors.

RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business - Rand Capital Corporation (“Rand” or the “Corporation”) was incorporated under the laws of New York in 1969. Beginning in 1971, Rand operated as a publicly traded, closed-end, management company that was registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”).

In 2001, Rand elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act. As a BDC, Rand is required to comply with certain regulatory requirements specified in the 1940 Act. For instance, it generally has to invest at least 70% of total assets in “qualifying assets” and provide managerial assistance to the portfolio companies in which it invests.

In November 2019, Rand completed a stock sale transaction (the “Closing”) with East Asset Management (“East”). The transaction consisted of a $25 million investment in Rand by East, in exchange for approximately 8.3 million shares of Rand common stock. The consideration paid by East for the shares of Rand common stock was comprised of approximately $15.5 million of cash and a contribution of $9.5 million of portfolio assets (the “Contributed Assets”). Concurrent with the Closing, Rand’s management and staff became employees of Rand Capital Management, LLC (“RCM”), a registered investment adviser that has been retained by Rand as its external investment adviser. In connection with retaining RCM as investment adviser, on November 8, 2019, Rand entered into an investment advisory and management agreement (the “Prior Investment Management Agreement”) and an administration agreement (the “Prior Administration Agreement”) with RCM pursuant to which RCM serves as Rand’s investment adviser and administrator (the Closing and the retention of RCM as investment adviser and administrator are collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction”). In connection with a change of control of RCM, Rand’s shareholders were asked to approve a new investment advisory and management agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with RCM at a special meeting of shareholders held on December 16, 2020 (the “Special Meeting”). The terms of the Investment Management Agreement are identical to those contained in the Prior Investment Management Agreement, with RCM continuing to provide investment advisory and management services to Rand. Following approval by Rand’s shareholders at the Special Meeting, Rand, on December 31, 2020, entered into the Investment Management Agreement and a new administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with RCM and terminated the Prior Administration Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Management Agreement, Rand pays RCM a base management fee and may pay an incentive fee, if specified benchmarks are met.

Rand is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. In connection with the completion of the Transaction, Rand shifted to an investment strategy focused on higher yielding debt investments and elected U.S. Federal tax treatment as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To maintain qualification as a RIC, Rand must, among other things, meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements. As of December 31, 2025, Rand was in compliance with the RIC requirements. As a RIC, Rand generally will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that it timely distributes to its shareholders as dividends. In addition, as a RIC, Rand must distribute annually to shareholders at least 90% of its ordinary net income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has regularly declared a quarterly cash dividend since our RIC election.

On December 5, 2024, Rand’s Board of Directors declared a dividend of $4.20 per share. The dividend was paid in the aggregate combination of 20% in cash and 80% in newly issued shares of common stock on January 24, 2025 to shareholders of record as of December 16, 2024.

 

In order to continue to qualify as a RIC, Rand holds several of its equity investments in holding companies that facilitate a tax structure that is advantageous to the RIC election. Rand has the following wholly-owned blocker companies in place at December 31, 2025: Rand BMP Swanson Holdings Corp., Rand Carolina Skiff Holdings Corp., Rand DSD Holdings Corp., Rand Filterworks Holdings Corp., Rand FSS Holdings Corp., Rand INEA Holdings Corp., and Rand ITA Holdings Corp. (the “Blocker Corps”). These subsidiaries are consolidated using United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for financial reporting purposes.

The following discussion describes the operations of Rand and its wholly owned subsidiaries Rand Sub, Rand BMP Swanson Holdings Corp., Rand Carolina Skiff Holdings Corp., Rand DSD Holdings Corp., Rand Filterworks Holdings Corp., Rand FSS Holdings Corp., Rand INEA Holdings Corp., and Rand ITA Holdings Corp. (collectively, the “Corporation”).

 

On November 14, 2025, Rand, RCM and certain of RCM’s affiliates were granted a new order for exemptive relief (the “Order”) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that superseded all prior co-investment exemptive relief order issued to Rand and its affiliates by the SEC. The Order permits Rand to co-invest in portfolio companies with certain of RCM’s affiliates if such co-investments are done on the same terms and at the same time, as further detailed in the Order. The Order requires that a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the Board of Directors make certain findings (1) in most instances when Rand co-invests with RCM’s affiliates in an issuer where RCM’s affiliates have an existing investment in the issuer, and (2) if Rand disposes of an investment acquired in a co-investment transaction unless the disposition is done on a pro rata basis. Pursuant to the Order, the Board of Directors oversees Rand’s participation in the co-investment program. As required by the Order, Rand has adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the terms of the Order, and RCM’s and Rand’s Chief Compliance Officers will provide reporting to the Board of Directors regarding compliance with such policies and procedures.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to Regulation S-X and Regulation S-K. The Corporation is an investment company following accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services— Investment Companies.

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Rand and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash represents cash on hand and demand deposits held at financial institutions. Cash equivalents include short-term highly liquid investments of sufficient credit quality that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less. Cash may be held in a money market fund from time to time, which is a Level 1 security. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents are held to meet short-term liquidity requirements, rather than for investment purposes. Cash and cash equivalents are held at major financial institutions and are subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) limitations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statement of financial position of cash and cash equivalents, interest receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Investment Classification – In accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, the Corporation classifies its investments by level of control. Under the 1940 Act “Control Investments” are investments in companies that the Corporation is deemed to “Control”

25


RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

if it owns more than 25% of the voting securities of the company or has greater than 50% representation on the company’s board of directors or other similar governing body. “Affiliate Investments” are companies in which the Corporation owns between 5% and 25% of the voting securities of the company. “Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments” are those companies that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments.

Investments - Investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by RCM and approved by Rand’s Board of Directors. The Corporation generally invests in loan, debt, and equity instruments and there is no single standard for determining fair value of these investments. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio company while employing a consistent valuation process. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of portfolio investments, there may be material risks associated with this determination including that estimated fair values may differ from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value for the investments existed and these differences could be material if the Corporation’s assumptions and judgments differ from results of actual liquidation events. The Corporation analyzes and values each investment quarterly and records unrealized depreciation for an investment that it believes has become impaired, including where collection of a loan or debt security or realization of the recorded value of an equity security is doubtful. Conversely, the Corporation will record unrealized appreciation if it believes that an underlying portfolio company has appreciated in value and, therefore, the Corporation’s equity securities in the underlying portfolio company have also appreciated in value. Additionally, the Corporation continues to assess any material risks associated with this fair value determination, including risks associated with material conflicts of interest. Under the valuation policy of the Corporation, unrestricted publicly traded securities are valued at the closing price for these securities on the last trading day of the reporting period. (See Note 2—Investments).

Qualifying Assets - As of December 31, 2025, the Corporation’s portfolio of investments only included qualifying assets as defined in Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. The Corporation’s qualifying assets consist of qualifying investments in privately held businesses, principally based in the United States.

Revenue Recognition - Interest Income - Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis except where the investment is in default or where receipt of such interest is otherwise presumed to be in doubt. In such cases, interest is recognized at the time of receipt. A reserve for possible losses on interest receivable is maintained when appropriate. The reserve for possible losses of interest receivable was $25,337 as of December 31, 2025. There was no reserve for possible losses of interest receivable as of December 31, 2024.

The Corporation holds debt securities in its investment portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest provisions. PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in each debt agreement, is added to the principal balance of the debt and is recorded as interest income. Thus, the actual collection of this interest may be deferred until the time of debt principal repayment. For investments with PIK interest, the Corporation will not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not collectible. Loans that are on non-accrual status remain in such status until the borrower has demonstrated the ability and intent to pay contractual amounts due or such loans become current. As of December 31, 2025, three of the Corporation’s debt investments were on non-accrual status with a cost of $16.3 million and fair value of $6.7 million, which represented 28.6% and 13.7% of the investment portfolio, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, none of the Corporation’s investments were on non-accrual status. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, 33.2%, 23.1%, and 16.7%, respectively, of the Corporation’s total investment income was attributable to non-cash PIK interest income.

Revenue Recognition - Dividend Income – The Corporation may receive cash distributions from portfolio companies that are limited liability companies or corporations, and these distributions are classified as dividend income on the consolidated statement of operations. Dividend income is recognized on an accrual basis for private portfolio companies only upon declaration or when a contractual obligation arises and the amount is reasonably determinable, or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.

The Corporation may hold preferred equity securities that contain cumulative dividend provisions. Cumulative dividends are recorded as dividend income, if declared and deemed collectible, and any dividends in arrears are recognized into income and added to the balance of the preferred equity investment. The actual collection of these dividends in arrears may be deferred until such time as the preferred equity is redeemed.

Revenue Recognition - Fee Income – Consists of the revenue associated with the amortization of financing fees charged to the portfolio companies upon successful closing of financings, income associated with portfolio company monitoring fees, income associated with early repayment fees and income associated with portfolio company loan modification fees. The income associated with the amortization of financing fees was $248,844, $209,316 and $205,480, for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and

2023, respectively, and is estimated to be approximately $145,000 in 2026, $122,000 in 2027 and $72,000 in 2028. Board and monitoring fees earned were $37,584, $92,393, and $52,000 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Non-recurring fees related to early repayment fees, loan modification fees, and dividend consent fees were $199,453, $232,011 and $63,264 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Realized Gain or Loss and Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation of Investments - Amounts reported as realized gains and losses are measured by the difference between the proceeds from the sale or exchange and the cost basis of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses recorded in prior periods. The cost of securities that have, in management’s judgment, become worthless are written off and reported as realized losses when appropriate. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the difference between the fair value of the investments and the cost basis of the investments.

Original Issue Discount – Investments may include “original issue discount”, or OID. This occurs when the Corporation purchases a warrant and a note from a portfolio company simultaneously, which requires an allocation of a portion of the purchase price to the warrant and reduces the purchase price allocated to the note by an equal amount in the form of a note discount or OID. The note is reported net of the OID and the OID is accreted into interest income over the life of the loan. The Corporation recognized $41,404, $28,008 and $21,008 in OID income for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. OID income is estimated to be approximately $14,000 for 2026.

Deferred Financing Fees - Origination and commitment costs related to the senior secured revolving credit facility with M&T Bank, (See Note 5—Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility), are amortized ratably over the term of the Credit Agreement. Amortization expense was $25,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Amortization expense is estimated to be $25,000 in 2026 and $12,500 in 2027.

Net Assets per Share - Net assets per share are based on the number of shares of common stock outstanding. There are no common stock equivalents outstanding.

Supplemental Cash Flow Information - Net income taxes (refunded) paid during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 amounted to ($3,126), $121,433 and $645,248, respectively. Interest paid during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $92,526, $1,154,059 and $934,638, respectively. During 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Corporation converted $2,149,390, $1,980,728, and $1,225,773, respectively, of interest receivable and payment-in-kind (PIK) interest into debt investments.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Corporation declared a common stock dividend of $8,672,231, which was distributed on January 24, 2025.

Concentration of Credit and Market Risk – The Corporation’s financial instruments potentially subject it to concentrations of credit risk. Cash and cash equivalents are invested with banks in amounts which, at times, exceed insured limits. The Corporation does not anticipate non-performance by such banks.

The following are the concentrations of the top five portfolio company values to the fair value of the Corporation’s total investment portfolio:

Segment Reporting - In accordance with ASC Topic 280 - Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Corporation has determined that it has a single operating and reporting segment. As a result, the Corporation’s segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Corporation does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets.

 

Income Taxes - The Corporation reviews the tax positions it has taken to determine if they meet the “more likely than not threshold” for the benefit of the tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position that fails to meet the more likely than not recognition threshold will result in either a reduction of a current or deferred tax asset or receivable, or the recording of a current or deferred tax liability. (See Note 4—Income Taxes).

Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, and the Corporation adopted it as required on January 1, 2025. Adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not result in any material changes to the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements or the related income tax disclosures.

NOTE 2. – INVESTMENTS

The Corporation’s investments are carried at fair value in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Loan investments are defined as traditional loan financings typically with no equity features or required equity co-investment. Debt investments are defined as debt financings that include one or more equity features such as conversion rights, stock purchase warrants, and/or stock purchase options. Equity investments are direct investments into a portfolio company and may include preferred stock, common stock, warrants and limited liability company membership interests.

The Corporation uses several approaches to determine the fair value of an investment. The main approaches are:

Loan and debt securities are generally valued at cost when representative of the fair value of the investment or sufficient assets or liquidation proceeds are expected to exist from a sale of a portfolio company at its estimated fair value. The valuation may also consider the carrying interest rate versus the related inherent portfolio risk of the investment. A loan or debt instrument may be reduced in value if it is judged to be of poor quality, collection is in doubt or insufficient liquidation proceeds exist.
Equity securities may be valued using the:
Cost approach - The cost approach uses estimates of the liquidation value of the portfolio company’s assets in relation to the cost of the respective security. This approach values the equity at the value remaining after the portfolio company pays off its debt and loan balances and its outstanding liabilities.
Market approach - The market approach uses observable prices and other relevant information generated by similar market transactions. It may include both private and public M&A transactions where the traded price is a multiple of EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) or another relevant operating metric. It may also include the market value of comparable public companies that are trading in an active market, or the use of market multiples derived from a set of comparables to assist in pricing the investment. Additionally, the Corporation adjusts valuations if a subsequent significant equity financing has occurred that includes a meaningful portion of the financing by a sophisticated, unrelated new investor.
Income approach - The income approach employs valuation techniques to convert future benefits or costs, usually in the form of cash flows, into a present value amount. The measurement is based on value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts.

RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

ASC 820 classifies the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, used in the Corporation’s valuation at the measurement date. Under the valuation policy, the Corporation values unrestricted publicly traded companies, categorized as Level 1 investments, at the closing price on the last trading day of the reporting period.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other observable inputs other than quoted prices.

Level 3: Unobservable and significant inputs to determining the fair value.

Financial assets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Any changes in estimated fair value are recorded in the statement of operations.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, all of the Corporation’s investments were Level 3 investments. There were no Level 1 or Level 2 investments at December 31, 2025 or 2024.

In the valuation process, the Corporation values restricted securities, categorized as Level 3 investments, using information from these portfolio companies, and, when considered appropriate, third-party valuation inputs, which may include:

Audited and unaudited statements of operations, balance sheets and operating budgets;
Current and projected financial, operational and technological developments of the portfolio company;
Current and projected ability of the portfolio company to service its debt obligations;
The current capital structure of the business and the seniority of the various classes of equity if a deemed liquidation event were to occur;
Pending debt or capital restructuring of the portfolio company;
Current information regarding any offers to purchase the investment, or recent financing transactions;
Current ability of the portfolio company to raise additional financing if needed;
Changes in the economic environment which may have a material impact on the operating results of the portfolio company;
Internal circumstances and events that may have an impact (both positive and negative) on the operating performance of the portfolio company;
Qualitative assessment of key management;
Contractual rights, obligations or restrictions associated with the investment; and
Other factors deemed relevant to assess valuation.

 

The valuation may be reduced if a portfolio company’s performance and potential have deteriorated significantly. If the factors that led to a reduction in valuation are overcome, the valuation may be adjusted accordingly.

 

Equity Securities

Equity securities may include preferred stock, common stock, warrants and limited liability company membership interests.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s equity investments are EBITDA and revenue multiples, where applicable, the financial and operational performance of the business, and the debt and senior equity preferences that may exist in a deemed liquidation event. Standard industry multiples may be used when available; however, the Corporation’s portfolio companies are typically privately-held, lower middle market companies, and these industry standards may be adjusted to more closely match the specific financial and operational characteristics of the portfolio company. Due to the nature of

29


RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

certain investments, fair value measurements may be based on other criteria, which may include third party appraisals. Significant changes in any of these unobservable inputs may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value estimate.

Another key factor used in valuing equity investments is a significant recent arms-length equity transaction entered into by the portfolio company with a sophisticated, non-strategic and unrelated new investor. The terms of these equity transactions may not be identical to the equity transactions between the portfolio company and the Corporation, and the impact of the difference in transaction terms on the market value of the portfolio company may be difficult or impossible to quantify.

When appropriate the Black-Scholes pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of warrants for accounting purposes. This model requires the use of highly subjective inputs including expected volatility and expected life, in addition to variables for the valuation of minority equity positions in small private and early stage companies. Significant changes in any of these unobservable inputs may result in a significantly higher or lower fair value estimate.

For investments made within the last year, the Corporation generally relies on the cost basis, which is deemed to represent the fair value, unless other fair value inputs are identified causing the Corporation to depart from this basis.

Loan and Debt Securities

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s loan and debt securities are the financial and operational performance of the portfolio company, similar debt with similar terms with other portfolio companies, as well as the market acceptance for the portfolio company’s products or services. These inputs will likely provide an indicator as to the probability of principal recovery of the investment. The Corporation’s loan and debt investments are often junior secured or unsecured securities. Fair value may also be determined based on other criteria where appropriate. Significant changes to the unobservable inputs may result in a change in fair value. For recent investments, the Corporation generally relies on the cost basis, which is deemed to represent the fair value, unless other fair value inputs are identified causing the Corporation to depart from this basis.
