PART II — RULES 12b-25(b) AND (c)

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

x(a)The reason described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
(b)
The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
(c)The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
Prospect Capital Corporation (the “Company”) is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense primarily because the Company requires additional time to complete its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and the Company’s independent registered accounting firm requires additional time to complete its audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Management is in the process of performing an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, based upon criteria in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Although the assessment is not yet complete, we expect to report a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to the operation of management review controls over the valuation of collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), including management’s review procedures over the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in performing those review procedures. Additionally, we expect to report a material weakness relating to our control environment and monitoring activities; specifically, with respect to evaluating internal control deficiencies in a timely manner.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company needs additional time to finalize its financial statements and related disclosures to be filed as part of the 2022 Form 10-K. The Company expects to file its 2022 Form 10-K within the extension period of 15 calendar days as provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The Company anticipates that the material weaknesses described above will not require a fourth quarter 2022 adjustment or materially impact its consolidated financial statements for any prior annual or interim periods.
