5,338,403 | {6}------------------------------------------------ # NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT # DECEMBER 31, 2021 # **Note 1--0rganization and nature of business** Organization - Capitol Securities Management, Inc. (the "Company") is a broker dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA). The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of CS Financial Group, Inc. (the "Parent"). The Parent's liability, as the sole shareholder of the Company, is limited in that in any proceeding brought by or in the name of the Company, the Parent shall not have liability for damages other than for willful misconduct or a knowing violation of criminal law. The Company is a registered broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company is also an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisors Act of 1940. # **Note 2--Summary of significant accounting policies** Basis of presentation - The preparation of the Company's financial statement in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions as to reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. Management believes that the estimates used in preparing the financial statement are reasonable and prudent. Significant estimates include the outcome of pending litigation (see Note 11 ). Actual results could differ from the estimates included in the financial statement. Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Accounts receivable - Accounts receivable is comprised of receivables from broker-dealers. These are collected in a short period of time, and based on past experience, management has determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts is not necessary. Notes receivable- advisors - Notes receivable consists of advances to certain employees. Each note has specific terms that are based on the nature of the respective employee agreement. Property and equipment - Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from five to seven years. Major renewals and betterments, which extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized. When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the statement of operations. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the economic life of the improvement, or the term of the lease. Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Revenue from contracts with customers includes commission income and asset management services. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time, how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on the appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; whether revenue should be presented gross or net of certain costs; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied to uncertain future events. {7}------------------------------------------------ ### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT DECEMBER 31, 2021 presented gross or net of certain costs; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied to uncertain future events. The Company buys and sells securities on behalf of its customers. Each time a customer enters into a buy or sell transaction, the Company charges a commission. Commissions and related clearing expenses are recorded on trade date. The Company believes that the performance obligation is satisfied on the trade date because that is when the underlying financial instrument or purchaser is identified, the pricing is agreed upon and the risks and rewards of ownership of the securities have been transferred to/from the customer. The Company provides advisory services. Revenue for advisory arrangements is generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed or the contract is cancelled. However, for certain contracts, revenue is recognized over time for advisory arrangements in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer. In some circumstances, significant judgment is needed to determine the timing and measure of progress appropriate for revenue recognition under a specific contract. Retainers and other fees received from customers prior to recognizing revenue are reflected as contract liabilities. At December 31, 2020 all amounts were immaterial. The Company enters into arrangements with managed accounts or other pooled investment vehicles (funds) to distribute shares to investors. The Company may receive distribution fees paid by the fund up front, over time, upon the investor's exit from the fund (that is, 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 if fulfilled on the trade date. 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 that 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. Commissions for the sale of mutual funds and variable annuities and 12b-1 s are recognized as revenue at the point in time the associated service is fulfilled which is based on trade date. Interest rebate income, which is the net interest earned on cash held in customer accounts, and other income are recognized monthly on an as earned basis, which is when the Company believes its' performance obligation has been satisfied. Securities transactions and expense recognition - Commission expense is recorded by the Company on a trade date basis, as securities transactions occur. Advertising - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred by the Company. Income taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amount of existing assets and liabilities and their respective {8}------------------------------------------------ ### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT ### DECEMBER 31, 2021 tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered in income. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will not be realized. Management has evaluated tax positions that could have a significant effect on the financial statements and determined that the Company had no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2021. Leases - The Company recognizes and measures its leases in accordance with FASB ASC 842, Leases. The Company is a lessee in several non-cancellable operating leases for office space. The Company recognizes a lease liability and a right of use (ROU) asset at the commencement date of the lease. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized bases on the present value of its future lease payments. The discount rate is the implicit rate if it is readily determinable or otherwise the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. The implicit rates of our leases are not readily determinable and accordingly, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date for all leases. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms and in a similar economic environment. The ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the re measured lease liability (i.e., present value of the remaining lease payments), plus unamortized initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received, and any impairment recognized. Lease cost for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Fair Value Measurements - The carrying amounts of total current assets and total liabilities approximates fair value, because of the short term nature of these instruments. The contractual interest rates, if any, associated with these assets or liabilities are considered to be at market rates. Deposits with Clearing Organizations - Deposits with clearing organization consists of cash which has been placed with the Company's clearing organization in the normal course of business. At December 31, 2021, the Company had \$100,018 in cash on deposit with the Company's clearing organization. ## **Note 3--0ff balance sheet risk and concentration of credit risk** Off balance sheet risk - The Company's customers' securities transactions are introduced on a fully disclosed basis with its clearing broker-dealers. The Company currently has a clearing agreement with Raymond James & Associates ("RJ") to clear all trade transactions. The Company is required to maintain a cash deposit of \$100,000 with RJ, in accordance with the terms of its clearing agreement. The clearing broker-dealer carries all of the accounts of the customers of the Company, and is responsible for execution, collection of and payment of funds, and receipts and delivery of securities relative to customer transactions. Off balance sheet risk exists with respect to these transactions, due to the possibility that customers may be unable to fulfill their contractual commitments. The clearing broker-dealer may charge any losses it incurs to the Company. The Company seeks to minimize this risk through procedures designed to monitor the credit worthiness of its customers. Customer transactions are executed promptly by the clearing-broker dealer. {9}------------------------------------------------ ### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT ### DECEMBER 31, 2021 The Company is engaged in various trading and brokerage activities whose counterparties primarily include broker-dealers, banks and other financial institutions. In the event counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the credit worthiness of the counterparty or issuer of the instrument. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty with which it conducts business. Concentration of credit risk - The Company places its cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions in the United States. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) provides insurance coverage of \$250,000 for all depository accounts. The Company, from time to time, may have amounts on deposit in excess of the insured limits. The Company maintains cash and securities in excess of the established limit insured by the Securities Investors Protection Corp (SIPC). ### **Note 4--Net capital requirements** As a registered broker-dealer, the Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's Uniform Net Capital Rule ("Rule 15c3-1 "). Rule 15c3-1 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 1. Rule 15c3-1 further requires that equity capital may not be withdrawn, or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. In addition, certain advances, payment of dividends, and other equity withdrawals are subject to certain notification provisions of Rule 15c3-1. At December 31, 2021, the Company had net capital of \$778,819 as defined under Rule 15c3-1, which exceeded the requirements by \$634,739. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital at December 31, 2021 was 2.77 to 1. #### **Note 5----Retirement plan** The Company provides a 401 (k) savings plan, which covers substantially all employees meeting minimum age and service requirements. The Company at its discretion may match employee contributions to the plan. {10}------------------------------------------------ # NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT ## DECEMBER 31, 2021 ## **Note 6----Property and equipment** Property and equipment at December 31, 2021 consists of the following: | ROU~sets | \$

153,940 | #### **Note 7--0perating leases** The Company has obligations as a lessee for office space at eleven locations. The Company classified these leases as operating leases. Lease terms expire over the next one to eight years and contain renewal options. Because the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise these renewal options, the optional periods are not included in determining the lease term, and associated payments under these renewal options are excluded from lease payments. The Company's leases do not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants. Payments due under the lease contracts include fixed payments plus, for many of the Company's leases, variable payments. The Company's office space leases require it to make variable payments for the Company's proportionate share of the building's property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance. These variable lease payments are not included in lease payments used to determine lease liability and are recognized as variable costs when incurred. Amounts reported on the balance sheet at December 31, 2021 are as follows: | Operating Leases | | |-----------------------------|-----------------| | Operating Lease ROU ~sets | \$
1,371,143 | | Operating Lease Liabilities | 1,522,346 | {11}------------------------------------------------ # NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT # DECEMBER 31, 2021 Future minimum lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases are as follows: | Years ending December 31, | | |---------------------------|-----------------| | 2022 | 946,964 | | 2023 | 309,143 | | 2024 | 276,361 | | 2025 | 189,705 | | 2026 | 157,584 | | Thereafter | 225,576 | | | \$
2,105,333 | ### **Note 8--Notes receivable - advisors** As described in Note 2, the Company has seven outstanding notes with advisors. The agreements' payment terms specify that the borrowers will make monthly payments over various time periods as detailed in each individual note. These payments are to be withheld from the related party's monthly pay. These notes are non-interest bearing; management has determined imputed interest to be immaterial. #### **Note 9---jncome taxes** The provision for federal and state income taxes, for the year ended December 31, 2021 is as follows: | Current income tax expense | | |-----------------------------|--------------| | Federal | \$ | | State | | | Provision for Income taxes | \$ | | | | | Deferred income tax benefit | | | Federal | \$

In the current year, the Company included this amount as part of the income taxes payable recorded on the statement of financial condition as an income tax liability of \$60,000.

The Company remains subject to examinations federal and various state authorities for years ending after December 31, 2018. # **Note 10---Related Parties** The Company has a shared service agreement with the Parent where it pays its portion of any bills that are paid at the Parent that directly relate to the Company.

The Company believes that these various asserted claims and litigation will not materially affect its financial position, future operating results or cash flows, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such claims or litigation. The Company's exposure to any actual losses is limited to the amount of its insurance policy deductible, which in general is \$100,000 per occurrence, less any amounts the Company seeks to recover from its registered representatives, if applicable. # **Note 12-Line of Credit** The Company has a line of credit of \$750,000 with its financial institution at a variable interest rate. There were no funds utilized in 2021 and there was no balance as of December 31, 2021 . #### **Note 13----Subsequent Events** Management has evaluated subsequent events through March 7, 2022, the date on which the financial statements were available to be issued.
