Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

On August 6, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time, Gladstone Investment Corporation (the “Company”) convened its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) virtually. At that time, there were not present or represented by proxy a sufficient number of shares of the Company’s common stock to constitute a quorum. Accordingly, the Company adjourned the Annual Meeting without any business being conducted. The adjourned meeting will reconvene virtually on September 4, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time, to vote on the proposals described in the proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 18, 2026. The close of business on June 10, 2026 will continue to be the record date for the determination of stockholders of the Company entitled to vote at the reconvened Annual Meeting.

During the period of the adjournment, the Company will solicit proxies from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Company’s proxy statement. Proxies previously submitted in respect of the Annual Meeting will be voted at the adjourned meeting unless properly revoked.

No changes have been made in the proposals to be voted on by stockholders at the Annual Meeting. The Company’s proxy statement and any other materials filed by the Company with the SEC remain unchanged and can be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
