# 1. THE COMPANY

Mutual Funds Associates, Inc. (Company) is <sup>a</sup> commission-based representative forseveral mutual fund companies, insurance companies and an investment management company. The Company receives <sup>a</sup> commission for placing clients funds with these companies. The Company does not take possession ofclient funds as they are placed directly with the companies. The client funds are then managed solely by those companies. The Company is strictly <sup>a</sup> representative and its client base is mostly from the Western New York area.

# 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis ofAccounting - The Company reports on the accrual basis ofaccounting which recognizes revenues when earned and expenses when incurred.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts ofassets and liabilities and disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date ofthe financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ him those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all cash on hand, cash in banks and shortterm investments with an original maturity ofthree months or less tobe cash and cash equivalents for financial reporting purposes.

Marketable Securities - Marketable securities are recorded at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) regarding Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The resulting difference between cost and fair value is included in revenue.

The Company's marketable securities consist ofan investment in <sup>a</sup> mutual fund, which is mostly invested in debt securities ofU.S. and foreign goveents and companies.

Qommissions Receivable mutual fund compares. The Company has receivables that arise from placing clients with

Allowance for Credit Losses - In accordance with the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) model, the allowance for credit losses is based on <sup>a</sup> forward-looking approach that considers historical credit loss experience, current economic conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company assesses the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses and makes adjustments as necessary. Management has determined that its allowance for credit losses should be zero as ofOctober 31, 2025 and 2024.

Revenue - Revenue from sale ofinvestment company shares and insurance based products consists of sales-based and trailing commission income. Sales-based commission income is recorded as client funds are placed with the mutual fund company or the insurance company. Trailing commission income is generally based on <sup>a</sup> percentage ofthe current market value of clients' investment holdings in trail-eligible assets.

Fees for Account Supervision and Investment Advisory - Fees for account supervision and investment advisory revenue are recorded over the period in which services are provided based upon average net assets under management in accordance with the respective investment management agreements.

{8}------------------------------------------------

# 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, Continued

Leases - At contract inception, the Company determines ifthe contractual arrangement is <sup>a</sup> lease or contains <sup>a</sup> leasing arrangement. Ifa contract contains <sup>a</sup> lease, the Company evaluates whether it should be classified as an operating lease or <sup>a</sup> finance lease. Currently, the Company's lease is classified as an operating lease. Upon modification ofthe contract, the Company will reassess to determine ifa contract is or contains <sup>a</sup> leasing arrangement. The Company elected to apply the short-tenn lease exemption to the following class ofunderlying assets: land and building. In 2025 and 2024, the Company's lease foroffice space qualifies for the exemption (See Note 8).

Property and Eq.uipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life ofthe assets, which is five years. When depreciable property is retired orotherwise disposed of, the cost and the related accumulated depreciation are cleared from the respective accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statement ofincome.

Risks and Uncertainties - Cash is maintained inbank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company is also subject to credit risk through its receivable. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash or its receivable. Marketable securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values ofinvestment securities will occur in the near term and those changes could materially affect the amounts reported in these financial statements.

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the ASC regarding Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard requires, among other things, recognition offuture tax liability and benefits, measured by applying enacted tax rates attributable to future deductible and taxable temporary differences between financial statement and income tax basis ofassets and liabilities, and tax credit cany forwards to the extent that realization ofsuch benefits is more likely than not. The Company has insignificant differences between financial statement and income tax basis ofassets and liabilities and, therefore, has not recorded any deferred tax asset or liability as ofOctober 3 l , 2025 and 2024.

# 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues are recognized when control ofthe promised services is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects tobe entitled to in exchange for those services. Revenues are analyzed to determine whether the Company is the principal (i.e., reports revenues on <sup>a</sup> gross basis) or agent (i.e., reports revenues on <sup>a</sup> net basis) in the contract. Principal or agent designations depend primarily on the control an entity has over the product Ol service before control is transferred to a customer.

The Company's revenue from sale ofinvestment company shares and insurance based roducts represents commissions generated by advisors for their client's purchases of various financial instruments. The Company views the selling, distribution and marketing, or any combination thereof ofinvestment or insurance products to such clients as <sup>a</sup> single performance obligation to the product sponsors. The Company is the principal for commission revenue as it is responsible for the execution of the client's purchase and maintaining the relationship with the product sponsors. Advisors assist the Company in performing its obligations. Accordingly, total commission revenues are reported on <sup>a</sup> gross basis.

{9}------------------------------------------------

## 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION, Continued

The Company generates two types ofcommission revenue: sales-based commission revenue that is recognized at the point ofsale, and trailing commission revenue that is recognized over time as earned. Sales-based commission revenue varies by the investment or insurance product and is based on the amount purchased and the commission schedule for the particular product. Trailing commission revenue is generally based on <sup>a</sup> percentage ofthe current market value ofthe client's investment holdings in trail-eligible assets and is recognized over the period during which services are performed.

The Company's fees for account supervision and investment advisory are earned over the period in which such services are provided. The related performance obligations are generally satisfied daily or monthly based on assets under management. The fees are calculated based upon average monthly or quarterly net assets under management in accordance with the respective investment management agreements. Investment advisory fees are recorded gross of any subadvisoiy payments and are included in revenue based on managelnent's determination that the Company is acting in the capacity ofprincipal service provider with respect to its relationship with the funds. Any corresponding fees paid are included in expenses.

The following is <sup>a</sup> summary ofthe timing ofrevenue recognition:

| 20<br>25                                                            |                                             | 20<br>24                                    |  |  |

# 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Company accounts for its marketable securities in accordance with the ASC regarding Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This standard defines fair value, establishes <sup>a</sup> framework for measuring fair value and establishes <sup>a</sup> fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer <sup>a</sup> liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, inthe absence ofa principal market, the most advantageous market.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Ifthe asset has <sup>a</sup> specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term ofthe asset.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

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

# 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT, Continued

The asset's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level ofany input that is significant tothe fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use ofobservable inputs and minimize the use ofunobservable inputs.

The Company's mutual fund is valued at quoted market price, which represents the net asset value ofshares held by the Company at year end. This method may produce <sup>a</sup> fair value calculation that may not be indicative ofnet realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Company believes its valuation method is appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use ofdifferent methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value could result in <sup>a</sup> different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The Company's marketable securities are Level l assets.
