In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Monness Crespi Hardt & Co. , Inc. as of December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### **Basis for Opinion** This financial statement is the responsibility of Monness Crespi Hardt & Co., lnc.'s management.

ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS** Monness Crespi Hardt & Co., Inc. (the Company) is a broker-dealer dealing principally with institutional investors as a registered entity with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC). The Company executes agency transactions in listed and over-the-counter securities. All customer transactions are cleared on a fully disclosed basis through an independent clearing firm. The Company claims exemption from the requirements of SEC Rule 15c3-3 under paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3. The Company does not carry security accounts for customers nor does it perform custodial functions related to their securities. #### **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** **Basis of presentation** - The accompanying financial statement has been prepared under the accrual basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) as stated in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). **Use of estimates** - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they could ultimately differ from actual results. **Financial instruments** - The Company's financial instruments include cash and accounts receivable, the carrying value of which approximates fair value because of their short-term duration. **Concentration of credit risk** - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, which at times may be in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any credit risk. **Current expected credit losses** - FASB ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, introduces a credit loss methodology, Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL methodology utilizes a lifetime "expected credit loss" measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans, held-to-maturity securities and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. The methodology replaces the multiple existing impairment methods in current U.S. GAAP, which generally requires that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. {7}------------------------------------------------ Notes to the Financial Statement For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 The Company uses the accounts receivable aging method, for receivables from third parties, to determine the provision for its allowance of expected credit losses to calculate the net realizable value. For financial assets measured at amortized cost (e.g., cash, due from clearing broker and other receivables), the Company makes an assessment of expected credit losses based on the nature and contractual life or expected life of the financial assets and historic and expected losses. The Company has determined that there is no allowance for credit losses to be recorded as of December 31, 2025. **Property and equipment** - Property and equipmen, are depreciated using straight-line and accelerated methods over the useful lives of the respective assets. The Company's capitalization policy provides that expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to operations. **Leases** - The Company recognizes leases in accordance with FASS ASC Topic 842, Leases (ASC Topic 842). The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and recognizes an asset for its right to use the underlying leased asset for the duration of the lease and a liability for the corresponding obligation to make lease payments. The Company has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components. Right-of-use-assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date, including renewals, based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company records rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term for all of its leased facilities . At the time of the lease, the Company is frequently not charged rent for a specified period of time while the facility is being prepared for opening. This rent-free period is referred to as a rent holiday. In accordance with ASC Topic 842, leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the statement of financial condition; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases as incurred (see Note 6). **Long-lived assets** - The Company's long-lived assets, including the Company's right-of-use assets, are reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset in question may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the estimated fair value of the asset. The Company did not identify an impairment adjustment as of December 31, 2025. {8}------------------------------------------------ Notes to the Financial Statement For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 **Soft dollar arrangements** - The Company ensures that any soft dollar arrangements with customers fall within the safe harbor provision of Rule 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, by segregating funds and providing for the payment of research, brokerage, quote services and other expenses permissible by Rule 28(e). For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company had several such customer arrangements. The Company does not carry security accounts for customers nor does it perform custodial functions related to their securities. **Segment reporting** - In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, the Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of several classes of services, including agency transactions, investment banking and investment advisory. The Company has identified the Chief Executive Officer as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business, predominantly in the forecasting process, to manage the Company. Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or pay distributions. The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and, therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using information of the Company as a whole. The total segment assets were \$13,170,522 as of December 31, 2025. **Income taxes** - The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected to be treated as a subchapter "S" corporation for federal and New York State corporate income tax purposes. Accordingly, no federal or New York State corporate taxes are paid on income, as income is passed through to its stockholders for tax purposes. Effective 2021, New York State permits an S corporation to elect to pay income taxes on behalf of their stockholders. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company has made such an election. The Company is responsible for New York City corporation income taxes. Interest or penalties assessed by taxing authorities, if any, are segregated and reported separately from the provision for income taxes. The Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740). The guidance in ASC Topic 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon examination by the applicable tax authority, based on the technical merits of the tax position, and then recognizing the tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current reporting period. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Company, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2025, no uncertain positions are taken or are expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statement. The Company is required to pay a state tax based on gross receipts and to pay New York City general corporation taxes based on income, or alternatively, on income plus officers' salaries. {9}------------------------------------------------ #### Notes to the Financial Statement #### For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 **Recently adopted accounting standards** - In December 2023, the FASS issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09 Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09). ASU 2023-09 requires additional annual disclosures including further disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items meeting a quantitative threshold, further disaggregation of income taxes paid and other required disclosures. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 for the annual period beginning on January 1, 2025. **Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted** - In July 2025, FASS issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (ASC Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The amendments in this Update provide (1) all entities with a practical expedient and (2) entities other than public business entities with an accounting policy election when applying the guidance in ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, to current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The practical expedient allows companies to assume conditions that exist of the balance sheet date persist throughout the forecast period when estimating the allowance for credit losses for both accounts receivables and contract assets. In addition, the accounting policy election allows companies to consider subsequent collection after yearend to further reduce the allowance for credit losses. The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on its financial statement and related disclosures. #### **3. DUE FROM CLEARING BROKER** The Company clears all security transactions through RSC. Under the clearing arrangement, the clearing broker confirms securities trades, processes securities movements and records transactions for each customer introduced by the Company, has custody of the Company's securities and cash balances, which serve as collateral for any amounts due to the clearing broker and as collateral for potential defaults by the Company's customers. The Company is also subject to credit risk if the clearing broker is unable to repay balances due or deliver securities in their custody (see Note 6). The Company has not established an allowance for credit losses. Most of its receivables are cleared and settled within a few days of the following month. Under the terms of its agreement with RSC, the Company must at all times maintain a balance of \$250,000 in a deposit account to ensure that it meets its minimum net capital requirement. #### **4. OTHER RECEIVABLES** Other receivables consists primarily of research receivables which are expected to be determined within 90 days of year end and paid immediately. The balance of the other receivables is customer obligations generally requiring payment within 30 days. Such receivables are recorded at invoiced amounts. {10}------------------------------------------------ Notes to the Financial Statement # For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 #### **5. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT** Property and equipment, at cost, consists of the following at December 31, 2025: | | Estimated | | |--------------------------------|-------------|-----------------| | | Useful Life | | | Description | (Years) | | | Furniture and fixtures | 7 | \$

721,636 | #### **6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** **Leases** - The Company entered an operating lease for premises located in New York, New York, which is a long-term non-cancellable lease that commenced on October 15, 2025. The discount rate for the right-of-use asset and lease liability recorded for this agreement was 7%. As part of the lease agreement, the Company received a 15-month rent holiday. At December 31, 2025, the Company's minimum rental commitments over the following years are as follows: | Years | | |--------------------------------------------------|-----------------| | 2026 | \$ | | 2027 | 1,257,858 | | 2028 | 1,257,858 | | 2029 | 1,257,858 | | 2030 | 1,257,858 | | Thereafter | 8,053,668 | | | 13,085,100 | | Less: interest (7%) | (4,323,951) | | Present value of lease liability | \$
8,761,149 | | Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years) | 11 | | Weighted-average discount rate(%) | 7 | Prior to entering into this lease, the Company leased office space in New York, New York. The term of this lease was for less than 12 months and, as such, no right-of-use asset or lease liability was recognized for this short-term lease. {11}------------------------------------------------ Notes to the Financial Statement For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 **Legal matters and litigation** - In the normal course of business, the Company may be subject to litigation relating to its business activities as a broker-dealer, including civil actions and arbitration. The Company may, from time to time, be involved in proceedings and investigations by self-regulatory organizations and the SEC. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is not a party to any litigation or the subject of any regulatory investigation. **Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk** - The Company executes, as principal and agent, securities transactions on behalf of its customers. If either the customer or counterparty fails to perform, the Company may be required to discharge the obligations of the non-performing party. In such circumstances, the Company may sustain a loss if the market value of the security is different from the contract value of the transaction. The Company also engages in trading and brokerage activities with customers, other broker dealers and counterparties (trading partners). The Company is exposed to the risk of any of its trading partners failing to fulfill their obligations. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the trading partner. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each of its trading partners. ### **7. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS 401(K) PLAN** The Company is the sponsor of a 401 (k) retirement plan which allows eligible employees to allocate the maximum allowed by law of their pre-tax earnings to the plan. The Company made no contribution to the plan for the year ended December 31, 2025. #### **8. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT** The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1 ), which requires the maintenance of minimum regulatory net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to regulatory net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2025, the Company had regulatory net capital of \$2,358,129 which exceeded its regulatory net capital of the greater of \$100,000 or 6-2/3% of aggregate indebtedness by \$2,258,129. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 0.44 to 1. #### **9. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES** There are various direct and indirect risks that could impact the Company, such as a potential global economic slowdown, increase in interest rates, inflationary pressures, geopolitical situations, supply chain disruptions, pandemics and more. It is also impossible to predict the effect these will have on longer-term industrial output, potential changes in supply and demand, and its impacts on the Company's liquidity, credit, customers, vendors and counterparties. To help minimize the uncertainty of these items, management continues to explore how to best operate in this environment. #### **10. SUBSEQUENTEVENTS** The Company has evaluated its subsequent events through February 26, 2026, the date that the accompanying financial statement was issued. There were no subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statement. Source: SEC EDGAR via Adviser Search (https://search.stillhousedata.com).
