**l** 2b-**l** fee revenue is earned based on a percentage of the average daily market value of clients' investment holdings in non-affiliated funds. **l** 2b-**l** fee revenue is estimated and recorded on a monthly basis and adjusted to actual upon receipt of payment from non-affiliated funds.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("F ASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014- 09"), the Company enters into arrangements with managed accounts or other pooled investment vehicles (funds) to distribute shares to investors. The Company receives distribution fees paid by the fund up front, over time, upon the investor's exit from the fund (a contingent deferred sales charge), or as a combination thereof. The Company believes that its performance obligation is the sale of securities to investors and as such this is fulfilled on the trade date.

{10}------------------------------------------------

## **[2] Revenue recognition (continued):**

Any fixed amounts are recognized on the trade date and variable amounts are recognized to the extent it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur once the uncertainty is resolved. For variable amounts, as the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the shares at future points in time as well as the length of time the investor remains in the fund, both of which are highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence, the Company does not believe it can overcome this constraint until the market value of the fund and the investor activities are known, which are usually monthly or quarterly.

Distribution fees recognized in the current period are primarily related to performance obligations that have been satisfied in prior periods.

#### **[3] Fair Value Measurements:**

The recorded amounts of the Company's cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values principally because of the short-term nature of these items.

# **[4] Cash:**

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. At December 31 , 2025, the Company's cash balance did not exceed the FDIC limit of \$250,000. The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk.

#### **[5] Accounts receivable:**

The Company continuously monitors the creditworthiness of clients and establishes an allowance for uncollectible amounts based on current economic trends, historical payment and bad debt writeoff experience, and any specific customer related collection issues. As of December 31 , 2025, no allowance was considered necessary.

#### **[6] Subsequent events:**

The Company has evaluated events subsequent to the statement of financial condition date for items requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements. The evaluation was performed through the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Based upon this review, the Company has determined that there were no events which took place that would have a material impact on its financial statements.

{11}------------------------------------------------

# **NOTE C-RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

The Company advances funds on an as-needed basis to TWC. These advances are non-interest-bearing and are payable on demand. Such balance has been classified as a reduction of shareholder's equity in the accompanying statement of financial condition as the Company does not anticipate that the amount due from TWC will be repaid, and would ultimately be distributed as a dividend to TWC.

The Company has an expense-sharing agreement with TWC whereby indirect general and administrative expenses are allocated to the Company. During the year ended December 31 , 2025, TWC allocated approximately \$165,789 of expenses to the Company, which were offset against the balance due from TWC. The expenses were comprised of approximately \$71,l 00 of Salaries, \$18,933 of Occupancy costs, \$69,199 of Professional fees and Outside services, \$4,315 of Dues and registrations, and \$2,242 of Communications and technology.

Wright Investors' Service, Inc. is an investment advisor that is also 100% owned by TWC. The Company acts as a distributor for mutual funds alongside the investment advisory services provided by Wright Investors' Service, Inc.

It is possible that the terms of certain related party transactions are not the same as those that would result for transactions among wholly unrelated parties.

# **NOTED -NET CAPITAL AND OTHER REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS**

As a registered broker-dealer, the Company is subject to the Uniform Net Capital requirement of the SEC under Rule 15c3-l, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to l . Net capital and the related aggregate indebtedness to net capital ratio may fluctuate on a daily basis. At December 31 , 20 25 the Company had net capital and a minimum net capital requirement of \$20,554 and \$5,000, respectively, and an aggregate indebtedness to net capital ratio of O to l.

#### **NOTE E - SINGLE REPORT ABLE SEGMENT**

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of the mutual fund distributor business. The Company has identified the chief executive officer of Wright Investors' Service, Inc. (see NOTE C) 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 (see NOTED), 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 dividends. 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 accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company derived l 00% of its total mutual distribution fee revenue from approximately six mutual fund companies in 2025.

{12}------------------------------------------------

# **NOTE E - LEASES**

The Company shares its office space with its Parent under the terms of an expense sharing agreement, which is cancellable with reasonable notice. This agreement is not subject to F ASB ASC 842, Leases. The Company records shared expenses monthly as billed.

# **NOTE F - INCOME TAXES**

The Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return of The Winthrop Corporation and also is included in a combined Connecticut tax return with its parent TWC and other subsidiaries of TWC. However, for financial reporting purposes, the Company determines its federal and state income tax provisions on a separate company basis with any liability for taxes payable to TWC.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to carryforwards and to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if realization is not considered more likely than not.

At December 31 , 2025 the Company had no deferred tax assets or liabilities.

The Company's income tax expense for the year ended December 31 , 20 25 consisted of federal income taxes of \$0 and state income taxes of \$0.

The Company applied the "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold to all tax positions taken or expected to be taken, which resulted in no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31 , 2025. Interest and penalties that would accrue according to relevant tax law would be classified as interest and other expense, respectively, on the statement of income.

# **NOTE G - COMMITMENTS, GUARANTEES, AND CONTINGENCIES**

Management of the Company believes that there are no commitments, guarantees or contingencies that may result in a material loss or future obligations as of December 31 , 2025.

# **NOTE H - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "F ASB") has established the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification" or "ASC") as the authoritative source of GAAP recognized by the F ASB. The principles embodied in the Codification are to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP in the United States. New accounting pronouncements are incorporated into the ASC through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU's").

For the year ending December 31 , 2025, various ASU' s issued by the F ASB were either newly issued or had effective implementation dates that would require their provisions to be reflected in the financial statements for the year then ended.

{13}------------------------------------------------

## **NOTE H - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)**

The Company has either evaluated or is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of each of these pronouncements and the possible impact they may have on the Company's financial statements. In most cases, management has determined that the pronouncement has either limited or no application to the Company and, in all cases, implementation would not have a material impact on the financial statements taken as a whole.

Our review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about the Company's compliance with the exemption provisions.
