In addition, the Company did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, other than money or other consideration received and promptly transmitted in compliance with paragraph (a) or (b)(2) of Rule 15c2-4 and/ or funds received and promptly transmitted for effecting transactions via subscriptions on a subscription way basis where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not to the Company; did not carry accounts of or for customers; and did not carry PAE accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3- 3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

To Whom It May Concern,

Coordinated Capital Securities, Inc. claims exemption from SEA Rule 15c3-3 under paragraph (k)(2)(ii) for the period of April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2024 because we do not hold customer funds or safe keep securities.

The clearing broker dealer carries all of the accounts of the customers and maintains and preserves all related books and records as are customarily kept by the clearing broker dealer. Coordinated Capital Securities, Inc. met the exemption provisions under SEA Rule 15c3-3 paragraph (k)(2)(ii) for the period of April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2023, without exemption.

Coordinated Capital Securities, Inc. is also filing this Exemption Report because the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 are limited to effecting securities transactions via a subscription way basis where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not to the Company; and the Company (1) did not directly or indirectly receive, hold or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, (2) did not carry accounts of or for customers, and (3) did not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year with exception.

(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Coordinated Capital Holdings, Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements As of and for the year ended March 31 , 2024

#### **NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)**

#### Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method deferred taxes are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance, when in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company is included in the consolidated return of the Parent. The Company pays the income tax for which they are liable. Income taxes are separately stated on the statement of income.

The Company recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under that guidance the Company assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of each period. The measurement of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when new information is available, or when an event occurs that requires a change. There were no such positions as of March 31, 2024. The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had no accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions.

The Company's U.S. Federal and state income taxes prior to 2020 are closed and management continually evaluates statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law, and authoritative rulings. If applicable, the Company would recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision and would include accrued interest and penalties with the tax liability. There were no interest and penalties recognized during fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.

#### Exemptive Provision

With respect to all securities transactions, the Company operates under the provisions of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Essentially, the requirements of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) provide that the Company clear all transactions on behalf of customers on a fully-disclosed basis with a clearing broker dealer and promptly transmit all customer funds and securities to the clearing broker dealer. The clearing broker dealer carries all of the accounts of the customers and maintains and preserves all related books and records as are customarily kept by a clearing broker dealer.

As a result of the provisions disclosed in the preceding paragraph, the Company is exempt from the remaining provisions of Rule 15c3-3.

The Company is also relying on Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 for other business activities limited to effecting securities transactions via subscription way basis where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not the Company. The Company did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers and did not carry accounts of or for customers throughout the period of April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024.

(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Coordinated Capital Holdings, Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements As of and for the year ended March 31 , 2024

#### **NOTE 1** - **Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)**

#### Guarantees and Indemnifications

In the normal course of its business, the Company indemnifies and guarantees certain service providers, such as clearing and custody agents against specified potential losses in connection with their acting as an agent of, or providing services to, the Company or its affiliates. The Company also indemnifies some clients against potential losses incurred in the event specified third-party service providers, including sub custodians and third-party brokers, improperly executed transactions. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these indemnifications cannot be estimated. However, the Company believes that it is unlikely it will have to make material payments under these arrangements and has not recorded any contingent liability in the financial statements for these indemnifications.

The Company is dependent on its clearing broker dealer, Wells Fargo Clearing Services LLC for the everyday processing of customer transactions as required under the provisions of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3.

Wells Fargo Clearing Services LLC requires that the Company maintain a minimum deposit of \$25,000.

#### 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 of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### **Recent accounting pronouncements**

The Company does not believe that the adoption of any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.

#### **Financial Instruments** - **Credit Losses**

In accordance with FASB ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," the ASU adds to U.S. GAAP and impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. The Company must recognize as an allowance, its estimate of lifetime expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses, if any. **A** broker-dealer's estimate of expected losses should consider the expected risk of credit loss even if that risk is remote, regardless of the method applied to estimate credit losses. **A** broker-dealer, however, is not required to measure expected credit losses on a financial asset (or group of financial assets) in which historical credit loss information adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts results in an expectation that nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is remote. For financial assets measured at amortized cost (i.e. cash), the Company has concluded that there are no expected credit losses based on the nature or expected life of the financial assets and immaterial historic or expected losses.

(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Coordinated Capital Holdings, Inc.) Notes to Financial Statements As of and for the year ended March 31 , 2024

#### **NOTE 2 - Net Capital Requirements**

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission uniform net capital rule (Rule 15c3-1 ), which requires the maintenance of a minimum amount of net capital and that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. Rule 15c3-1 also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$362,923 which was \$312,923 in excess of its net capital requirement of \$50,000. The Company's net capital ratio as of March 31, 2024 was .34 to 1.

#### **NOTE 3** - **Off Balance Sheet Risk**

As discussed in Note 1, the Company offers securities that are introduced on a fully disclosed basis with its clearing broker dealer. For these transactions, the clearing broker dealer is responsible for the execution, collection and payment of funds and, receipt and delivery of securities relative to customer transactions. Off-balance sheet risk exists with respect to these transactions due to the possibility that the customers may be unable to fulfill their contractual commitments, wherein 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.

#### **NOTE 5 - Income Taxes (cont.)**

continually evaluates statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law, and authoritative rulings. If applicable, the Company would recognize interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision and would include accrued interest and penalties with the tax liability. There were no interest and penalties recognized during fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.

For the year ended March 31, 2024, the provision for income taxes is summarized as follows:

| Federal                          | \$<br>(72,133) |
|----------------------------------|----------------|
| State                            | (21,434)       |
| Valuation allowance              | 93 567         |
| Total provision for income taxes | \$             |
|                                  |                |

The following is the federal tax rate reconciliation:

| (21.0)% |
|---------|
| ( 7.9)% |
| 28.9%   |
| 0.0%    |
|         |

At March 31, 2024 the Company had total federal net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately \$543,002, which can be deducted against future taxable income that expire between 2030 and 2036.

The Company accounts for income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes "ASC 740". ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial losses and the tax basis of assets and liabilities for both the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 "IRC 382" places a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by carry forwards after a change in control (generally greater than a 50% change in ownership). In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not some portion or all the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences will become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
