DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY

Source Capital, Inc. is a diversified, publicly traded investment company. Its investment portfolio includes a wide range of securities with primary emphasis on common stock.

Source Capital's Common Stock is listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and there are currently 8,655,240 shares outstanding. Source Capital's investment objective is to seek maximum total return for Common shareholders from both capital appreciation and investment income to the extent consistent with protection of invested capital.

Source Capital is not a mutual fund. Thus, the Company does not repurchase its own shares on demand and does not need to structure its portfolio securities to provide for possible redemptions. As a publicly traded investment company, Source Capital's Common shares are bought and sold on The New York Stock Exchange, and the Company is not involved in such transactions.

Source Capital's investment approach emphasizes primarily equity investments in seeking to achieve its growth objective for its Common shareholders. The desirability of equity in contrast with fixed-income investments has been increasingly debated in recent years. Source Capital's position is that without assuming undue risk, properly selected stocks offer the better long-term opportunity for overall investment return as well as long-term protection from the large but uncertain threat of inflation. Source Capital's equity

investments are directed toward companies with highly liquid, relatively unleveraged balance sheets and a demonstrated long-term ability to earn above-average returns on invested capital. Source Capital's equity investment portfolio is based on fundamental judg-ments of long-term returns attainable from income and appreciation in the securities of such companies and is not derived from overall economic forecasts or stock market predictions.

The Company has adopted a flexible distribution policy. This policy is designed to pay Common shareholders quarterly distributions at a rate that is substantially in excess of net investment income. The rate is adjusted periodically in response to sustained changes in the net asset value, market conditions, and changes to investment company regulations and tax laws. Only a portion of such distributions is paid from net investment income. The remainder is paid from any net realized capital gains and/or paid-in capital, as determined by each year's results. To the extent the Company realizes net long-term capital gains for any year in excess of the amounts distributed under the Company's distribution policy, such excess will be distributed to shareholders. For federal income tax purposes, all distributions in excess of current year earnings will be taxable to shareholders as long as the Company continues to have accumulated earnings and profits from prior years

SOURCE CAPITAL, INC.
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:

Investment Portfolio Returns

The net assets of Source Capital amounted to $688,282,067 at June 30, 2015, or $79.52 of net asset value per Common share. This compared with net assets of $696,238,579 and net asset value per Common share of $80.44 at year end. As a result, Source Capital recorded a positive total investment return during the six months ended June 30, 2015, of 0.9%, reflecting the reinvestment of dividends and distributions as compared to a return of 4.8% for its Russell 2500 Index benchmark.

Distributions to Common Shareholders

Source Capital's distribution policy allows the Board of Directors to consider changes in net asset value when establishing the quarterly distribution rate. But this policy also provides for the flexibility to consider such other factors as current market conditions and changes to investment company regulations and tax laws. It is the intention of the Board of Directors to continue paying quarterly distributions at a rate that is substantially in excess of net investment income.

The regular quarterly distribution on the Common shares of $0.85 per share was paid on June 15, 2015, to shareholders of record on May 22, 2015.

Performance

As shown on the following table, Source's portfolio was down just over 2% during the second quarter, trailing its benchmark index, the Russell 2500.

O'Reilly Auto was the best contributor. We believe it is a suitable holding for investors seeking protection in difficult environments and low volatility of returns.

The negative contributors were dominated by truckload carriers (Knight Transportation and Heartland Express) and several retailers—Signet Jewelers and CarMax.

Commentary

One of the older companies in the Fund, and now one of its largest positions, is Signet Jewelers. Signet has recently completed a sizeable acquisition of Zale Jewelry, so its Investor Day, held in New York in June, was especially timely.

Much like Zale, Kay Jeweler is one of the largest jewelry store chains in the North American mid-market with about 1000 stores, and is Signet's flagship chain.

We expect early items on the post-deal to do list to include improving store operations and merchandising at Zale, and differentiating the marketing messages of Kay and Zale.

Kay has very strong ongoing operations with margins in the 15% range, so there is lots of room to improve the numbers at Zale, where operating margins are currently close to zero.

A key factor here is Kay's "Strategic Pillars", including:1

•  Strong mid-market operations

•  Bridal

•  Watches (in U.K.)

•  Improving omni-channel marketing capabilities, and,

•  Highly trained and motivated employees

We expect applications of lessons learned in Kay's core business over the years to be steadily applied to Zale, with reductions in the cost structure, as well as sales synergies providing potential sources for additional gains.

A different and more intractable issue is distinguishing between the similar marketing messages of mid-price and

mid-fashion Kay from Zale's shopping-center based mid-fashion image. Management has expressed optimism that this distinction is viable but we need to see it in action before we are believers.

Egged on by financial re-engineers, Signet has recently taken some steps to increase leverage in its balance sheet and financial structure. These changes include greater balance sheet debt, more rapid share repurchase, and a further use of the asset backed securitization facility.

Our instinct is to be wary of leverage, and that applies in this case as well. We have made our feelings clear to management and will continue to do so.

Continued differentiation of merchandise is a more positive note and has been an important factor in Signet's success. Signet designs and manufactures many products unique to its stores, giving it a proprietary look and some degree of control over prices and margin structure. To compliment this effort, Signet has opened a New-York based product development facility to support its multi-brand effort. It should be noted that this is by no means a unique strategy in the jewelry business, but Signet has a strong track record in its differentiation abilities.

Signet also recently entered the retail outlet segment of the jewelry business in an aggressive fashion, starting with the purchase of Ultra Stores and more recently switching to outlet-specified merchandise—clearly a lot has been going on, and Signet has been reacting vigorously in some areas and making fundamental changes in others.

And finally, yet another change in Signet's business model—adding investment capital to strengthen its position in the diamond supply chain, securing a long-term supply of diamonds to support world-wide growth.

Thank you for your continued support and trust.

Respectfully submitted,

Eric S. Ende

SOURCE CAPITAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2015
(Unaudited)

NOTE A—Significant Accounting Policies

Source Capital, Inc. (the "Company"), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Company is to seek maximum total return for Common shareholders from both capital appreciation and investment income to the extent consistent with protection of invested capital. The Fund qualifies as an investment company pursuant to Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. The significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements include the following:

1. SECURITY VALUATON—The Company's investments are reported at fair value as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The Company generally determines its net asset value as of approximately 4:00 p.m. New York time each day the New York Stock Exchange is open. Further discussion of valuation methods, inputs and classifications can be found under Note F.

2. USE OF ESTIMATES—The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. OTHER—Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investment securities, and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies, are translated using the daily spot rate; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are included in net realized or net unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the statement of operations. Distributions payable on the Common Stock are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The ratios of expenses and net investment income to average net assets prior to the year ended December 31, 2013 do not reflect the effect of dividend payments to Preferred shareholders.

NOTE B—Risk Considerations

Investing in the Company may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Market Risk: Because the values of the Company's investments will fluctuate with market conditions, so will the value of your investment in the Fund. You could lose money on your investment in the Company or the Company could underperform other investments.

Common Stocks and Other Securities (Long): The prices of common stocks and other securities held by the Company may decline in response to certain events taking place around the world, including; those directly involving companies whose securities are owned by the Company; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; and currency, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations. In addition, the emphasis on a value-oriented investment approach by the Company's investment adviser, First Pacific Advisors, LLC ("Adviser"), generally results in the Company's portfolio being invested primarily in medium or smaller sized companies. Smaller companies may be subject to a greater degree of change in earnings and business prospects than larger, more established companies, and smaller companies are often more reliant on key products or personnel than larger companies. Also, securities of smaller companies are traded in lower volumes than those issued by larger companies and may be more volatile than those of larger companies. The Company's foreign investments are subject to additional risks such as, foreign markets could go down or prices of the Company's foreign investments could go down because of unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates, foreign government actions, social, economic or political instability or other factors that can adversely affect investments in foreign countries. These factors can also make foreign securities less liquid, more volatile and harder to value than U.S. securities. In light of these characteristics of smaller companies and their securities, the Company may be subjected to greater risk than that assumed when investing in the equity securities of larger companies.

Interest Rate and Credit Risk: The values of, and the income generated by, most debt securities held by the Company may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in the effective maturities and credit rating of these securities. For example, the value of debt securities in the Company's portfolio generally will decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. In addition, falling interest rates may cause an issuer to redeem, call or refinance a security before its stated maturity, which may result in the Company having to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities. Debt securities are subject to credit risk, meaning that the issuer of the debt security may default or fail to make timely payments of principal or interest. The values of any of the Company's investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower rated debt securities in which the Company may invest are considered speculative and are generally subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions.

Repurchase Agreements: Repurchase agreements permit the Company to maintain liquidity and earn income over periods of time as short as overnight. Repurchase agreements held by the Company are fully collateralized by U.S. Government securities, or securities issued by U.S. Government agencies, or securities that are within the three highest credit categories assigned by established rating agencies (Aaa, Aa, or A by Moody's or AAA, AA or A by Standard & Poor's) or, if not rated by Moody's or Standard & Poor's,

are of equivalent investment quality as determined by the Adviser. Such collateral is in the possession of the Company's custodian. The collateral is evaluated daily to ensure its market value equals or exceeds the current market value of the repurchase agreements including accrued interest. In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Company has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation.

The Company may enter into repurchase agreements, under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement ("MRA"). The MRA permits the Company, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the Company. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of a MRA counterparty's bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, the Company receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price to be received by the Company upon the maturity of the repurchase transaction. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Company recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Company's obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. Repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the period are listed in the Company's Portfolio of Investments.

NOTE C—Capital Stock

The Company did not issue any shares of Common Stock under its Dividend Reinvestment Plan for shareholders during the period ended June 30, 2015.

NOTE D—Advisory Fees and Other Affiliated Transactions

Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement, the Company pays the Adviser, monthly investment advisory fees calculated at an annual rate of 0.725% for the first $100 million of total net assets, 0.700% for the next $100 million of total net assets, and 0.675% for any total net assets in excess of $200 million. The Agreement obligates the Adviser to reduce its fee to the extent necessary to reimburse the Company for any annual expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, the cost of brokerage and research services, legal expenses related to portfolio securities, and extraordinary expenses such as litigation) in excess of 11/2% of the first $30 million and 1% of the remaining average net assets of the Company for the year.

For the period ended June 30, 2015, the Company paid aggregate fees of $89,394 to all Directors who are not affiliated persons of the Adviser.

NOTE E—Federal Income Tax

No provision for federal income tax is required because the Company has elected to be taxed as a "regulated investment company" under the Internal Revenue Code and intends to maintain this qualification and to distribute each year to its shareholders, in accordance with the minimum distribution requirements of the Code, its taxable net investment income and taxable net realized gains on investments.

Cost of purchases of investment securities (excluding short-term investments with maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase) aggregated $11,455,511 for the period ended June 30, 2015. The proceeds and cost of securities sold resulting in net realized gains of $23,189,150 aggregated $49,520,347 and $26,331,197, respectively, for the period ended June 30, 2015. Realized gains or losses are based on the specific identification method.

The cost of investment securities held at June 30, 2015, was $282,615,352 for federal income tax purposes. Gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for all investments (excluding short-term investments) at June 30, 2015, for federal income tax purposes was $355,263,472 and $11,144,829, respectively resulting in net unrealized appreciation of $344,118,643. As of and during the period ended June 30, 2015, the Company did not have any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year, the Company did not incur any interest or penalties. The Company is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for years ended on or before December 31, 2011 or by state tax authorities for years ended on or before December 31, 2010.

NOTE F—Disclosure of Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses the following methods and inputs to establish the fair value of its assets and liabilities. Use of particular methods and inputs may vary over time based on availability and relevance as market and economic conditions evolve.

Equity securities are generally valued each day at the official closing price of, or the last reported sale price on, the exchange or market on which such securities principally are traded, as of the close of business on that day. If there have been no sales that day, equity securities are generally valued at the last available bid price. Securities that are unlisted and fixed-income and convertible securities listed on a national securities exchange for which the over-the-counter market more accurately reflects the securities' value in the judgment of the Company's officers, are valued at the most recent bid price. However, most fixed income securities are generally valued at prices obtained from pricing vendors and brokers. Vendors value such securities based on one or more of the following


12



SOURCE CAPITAL, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)

June 30, 2015
(Unaudited)

inputs: transactions, bids, offers quotations from dealers and trading systems, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities, benchmarks, underlying equity of the issuer, and proprietary pricing models such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data (includes prepayments, defaults, collateral, credit enhancements, and interest rate volatility). Short-term corporate notes with maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost.

Securities for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the Adviser are valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by the authority of the Company's Board of Directors. Various inputs may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security's value. These inputs include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions. Fair valuations and valuations of investments that are not actively trading involve judgment and may differ materially from valuations of investments that would have been used had greater market activity occurred.

The Company classifies its assets based on three valuation methodologies. Level 1 values are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets and quoted prices in inactive markets or other market observable inputs as noted above including spreads, cash flows, financial performance, prepayments, defaults, collateral, credit enhancements, and interest rate volatility. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company's determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the assets. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following table presents the valuation levels of the Company's investments as of June 30, 2015:

NOTE G—Collateral Requirements

The Company has implemented the disclosure requirements pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, that requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards. Under this guidance the Company discloses both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset such as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. In addition, the Company discloses collateral received and posted in connection with master netting agreements or similar arrangements.

New York Stock Exchange: SOR

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

Holders of record (other than brokers or nominees of banks and other financial institutions) of Common Stock are eligible to participate in the Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("Plan"), pursuant to which distributions to shareholders are paid in or reinvested in shares of Common Stock of the Company ("Dividend Shares"). American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, Attn: Shareholder Relations Department, 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York, 11219, acts as Agent for participants under the Plan.

A shareholder may join the Plan by signing and returning an authorization form that may be obtained from the Agent. A shareholder may elect to withdraw from the Plan at any time by written notice to the Agent and thereby elect to receive cash in lieu of Dividend Shares. There is no penalty for withdrawal from the Plan, and shareholders who have previously withdrawn from the Plan may rejoin at any time. The Company reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan.

Purchases of the Company's shares are made by the Agent, on behalf of the participants in the Plan, promptly after receipt of funds, and in no event later than 30 days from such receipt except when restricted under applicable federal securities laws. The Agent purchases outstanding shares in the market when the price plus estimated commissions of the Company's Common Stock on the NYSE is lower than the Company's most recently calculated net asset value per share. To the extent that outstanding shares are not available at a cost of less than per share net asset value, the Agent, on behalf of the participants in the Plan, accepts payment of the dividend, or the remaining portion thereof, in authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock of the Company on the payment date. Such shares are issued at a per share price equal to the higher of (1) the net asset value per share on the payment date, or (2) 95% of the closing market price per share on the payment date. There are no brokerage charges with respect to shares issued directly by the Company to satisfy the

dividend reinvestment requirements. However, each participant pays a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Agent's open market purchases of shares. In each case, the cost per share of shares purchased for each shareholder's account is the average cost, including brokerage commissions, of any shares purchased in the open market plus the cost of any shares issued by the Company.

For Federal income tax purposes, shareholders who reinvest distributions are treated as receiving distributions in an amount equal to the fair market value, determined as of the payment date, of the shares received if the shares are purchased from the Company. Such value may exceed the amount of the cash distribution that would have been paid. If outstanding shares are purchased in the open market, the taxable distribution equals the cash distribution that would have been paid. In either event, the cost basis in the shares received equals the amount recognized as a taxable distribution.

In the case of foreign participants whose dividends are subject to United States income tax withholding and in the case of any participants subject to 31% federal backup withholding, the Agent will reinvest dividends after deduction of the amount required to be withheld.

All record holders of Common Stock are also offered the opportunity, on a voluntary basis, to send in cash payments of not less than $100 each up to a total of $7,500 per month to purchase additional shares of the Common Stock of the Company through participation in the Cash Investment Plan ("Cash Plan"). Under the Cash Plan, shares are purchased in the market and no shares are issued by the Company. A brochure describing the terms and conditions of the Cash Plan, including fees and expenses, is available from the Agent.
