(NasdaqGS: OXLC) (NasdaqGS: OXLCP) (NasdaqGS: OXLCL) (NasdaqGS: OXLCO) (NasdaqGS: OXLCZ) (NasdaqGS: OXLCN) (NasdaqGS: OXLCI) (NasdaqGS: OXLCG) (“Oxford Lane,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) announced today the following financial results and related information: On October 24, 2025, our Board of Directors declared the following distributions on our common stock: Month Ending Record Date Payment Date Amount Per Share January 31, 2026 January 16, 2026 January 30, 2026 $0.40 February 28, 2026 February 13, 2026 February 27, 2026 $0.40 March 31, 2026 March 17, 2026 March 31, 2026 $0.40 Effective September 5, 2025, we completed a 1-for-5 reverse stock split of our common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Net asset value (“NAV”) per share as of September 30, 2025 stood at $19.19, compared with a NAV per share on June 30, 2025 of $20.60, which has been adjusted retroactively to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. Net investment income (“NII”), calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), was approximately $81.4 million, or $0.84 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Our core net investment income (“Core NII”) was approximately $120.0 million, or $1.24 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Core NII incorporates all applicable cash distributions received, or entitled to be received (if any, in either case), on our collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”) equity investments. See additional information under “Supplemental Information Regarding Core Net Investment Income” below. We emphasize that our taxable income may differ materially from our GAAP NII and/or our Core NII, and that neither GAAP NII nor Core NII should be relied upon as indicators of our taxable income. Total investment income for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 amounted to approximately $128.3 million, which represented an increase of approximately $4.3 million from the quarter ended June 30, 2025. For the quarter ended September 30, 2025 we recorded investment income as follows: Approximately $124.6 million from our CLO equity and CLO warehouse investments, and Approximately $3.7 million from our CLO debt investments and other income. Our total expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were approximately $47.0 million, compared with total expenses of approximately $49.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, the following metrics applied (note that none of these metrics represented a total return to shareholders): The weighted average yield of our CLO debt investments at current cost was 17.4%, up from 16.9% as of June 30, 2025. The weighted average effective yield of our CLO equity investments at current cost was 14.6%, down from 14.7% as of June 30, 2025.

Supplemental Information Regarding Core Net Investment Income We provide information relating to Core NII (a non-GAAP measure) on a supplemental basis. This measure is not provided as a substitute for GAAP NII, but in addition to it. Our non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures by other companies, even in the event of similar terms being utilized to identify such measures. Core NII represents GAAP NII adjusted for additional applicable cash distributions received, or entitled to be received (if any, in either case), on our CLO equity investments. Oxford Lane’s management uses this information in its internal analysis of results and believes that this information may be informative in assessing the quality of Oxford Lane’s financial performance, identifying trends in its results and providing meaningful period-to-period comparisons. Income from investments in the “equity” class securities of CLO vehicles, for GAAP purposes, is recorded using the effective interest method; this is based on an effective yield to the expected redemption utilizing estimated cash flows, at current cost, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. The result is an effective yield for the investment in which the respective investment’s cost basis is adjusted quarterly based on the difference between the actual cash received, or distributions entitled to be received, and the effective yield calculation. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from the cash distributions actually received by the Company during the period (referred to below as “CLO equity adjustments”). Furthermore, in order for the Company to continue qualifying as a regulated investment company for tax purposes, we are required, among other things, to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income annually. While Core NII may provide a better indication of our estimated taxable income than GAAP NII during certain periods, we can offer no assurance that will be the case, however, as the ultimate

tax character of our earnings cannot be determined until after tax returns are prepared at the close of a fiscal year. We note that this non- GAAP measure may not serve as a useful indicator of taxable earnings, particularly during periods of market disruption and volatility, and, as such, our taxable income may differ materially from our Core NII. The following table provides a reconciliation of GAAP NII to Core NII for the three months ended September 30, 2025: Three Months Ended September 30, 2025 Amount Per Share Amount GAAP net investment income………………………………………… $ 81,350,744 $ 0.84 CLO equity adjustments……………………………………….……… 38,687,292 0.40 Core net investment income…………………………………………… $ 120,038,036 $ 1.24 We will host a conference call to discuss our second fiscal quarter results today, Monday, November 3, 2025 at 9:00 AM ET.
