Organization and Business SNC Capital Management Corporation dba RCM Securities (the "Company") is an Illinois corporation registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Company's revenue consists primarily of fees and commissions from trading and securities, referral fees from other dealers, and investment banking advisory fees, but the Company does not carry customer accounts. The Company is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). During 2019 the Company assumed the dba as RCM Securities. The Company is registered with the National Futures Association and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, as an independent introducing broker. ## Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ### Basis of Presentation and Accounting The Company follows Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), as established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB), to ensure consistent reporting of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. ## Revenue Recognition The Company earns commission revenue consistent with the terms of its contract with its clearing broker. The earned commissions are calculated, reported, and recorded monthly, as earned. Interest income is earned on an accrual basis. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The guidance was amended to require public business entities to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The impact of the amendment to Topic FASB ASC 606 has had no material impact on the Company's financial statements. ### Commissions Commission Income. 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 the trade date (the date that the Company fills the trade order by finding and contracting with a counterparty and confirms the trade with the customer). 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. ### Consulting Fees Equity Research services. The Company offers fundamental equity research services to institutional investors on private placements. Integral to its capital markets efforts, the Company has equity sales and trading relationships with institutional invest in its core sectors of coverage including Consumer and Business services, Healthcare, Industrial and Media & Technology. In addition to these services, the Company specializes in research and consulting on valuation models for sports teams. The Company provides institutional clients monitoring and analysis of risk on future and current investments. Consulting fees are recorded on accrual basis when the services are completed, and the performance obligation is satisfied. {9}------------------------------------------------ # 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued #### Expenses Expenses are accounted for on the accrual basis. ### Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Management determines that the estimates utilized in preparing its financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates. ### Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents include demand deposits with banks, money market accounts, and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. As of December 31. 2024, \$293,537 of the Company's cash equivalents are invested in government money market funds that invest primarily in U.S. Treasuries and other securities directly or indirectly guaranteed by the U.S. government. The Company holds cash in financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Insured limits. The Company periodically reviews the financial condition of the financial institutions and assesses the credit risk of such investments. Valuation of Investments in Securities and Derivatives at Fair Value - Definition and Hierarchy In accordance with GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. A fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumption about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three Levels based on the inputs as follows: Level 1 Inputs - Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the reporting date. Level 2 Inputs - Valuation is based on other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, either directly. Level 3 Inputs - Valuation is based on unobservable inputs for the valuation of the asset or liability. Level 3 assets include investments for which there is little, if any, market activity. These inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, the type of investment. whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or {10}------------------------------------------------ # 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different Levels of the fair value hierarchy, In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the Level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement fall in its entirety is determined based on the lowest Level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. A description of the valuation techniques applied to the company's major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis follows. - Exchange-Traded Equity Securities. Exchange-traded equity securities are generally valued based on quoted prices from the exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded, valuation adjustments are not applied, and they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy; otherwise, they are categorized in Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. - Listed Derivative Contracts. Listed derivatives that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Listed derivatives that are not actively traded are valued using the same approaches as those applied to OTC derivatives; they are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2024, Company held equity securities with a fair value of \$6,667 which are Level 2 investments. As of December 31, 2024, Company held no Level 1 or Level 3 assets or liabilities. ### Income Taxes For income tax reporting purposes, the Company has elected to file as a small business corporation under Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, the Company provides no federal income taxes, as the taxable income is includible in the shareholders' individual income tax return. The Company, however, is subject to the Illinois Small Business Corporation Replacement Tax of 1.5% of taxable income, as defined. The Company has elected to be liable for the Illinois Pass-Through Entities (PTE) Tax. The PTE tax rate is equal to 4.95% of the taxable net income for the year. At December 31, 2024, the Company had State Income tax payable of \$1,600, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Statement of Financial Condition and Provisions for state income taxes of \$10,035 which is on the Statement of Operations. FASB ASC Topic 740, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax benefit, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company continues to evaluate uncertain tax positions, if any, and income tax contingencies under FASB ASC Topic 450, Accounting for Contingences. FASB ASC 450 requires the Company to accrue for losses it believes are probable and can be reasonably {11}------------------------------------------------ # 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued estimated. Management believes the impact of FASB ASC 740 on its financial position and results of operations will have an immaterial effect on its financial statements. Management has reviewed the Company's tax positions for the open tax years (current and prior three tax years) and concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Company's financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination by tax authorities. ## Leases The Company recognizes and measures its lease in accordance with FASB ASC 842, Leases. The Company is a lessee in an operating lease, for office space. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception of a contract and when the terms of an existing contract are changed. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized base on the present value of its future lease payments. Variable payments are included in the future lease payments when those variable payments depend on an index or a rate. This 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 lease are not readily determinable and accordingly, we use our incremental borrow 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 payment under similar terms and in a similar economic environment. The ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the remeasured lease liability (i.e., present value of the remaining lease payment), 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 recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At December 31, 2024, the Company did not have a lease. #### 3. Net Capital Requirements The Company is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (15c3-1), 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 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. Under this Rule, the Company is required to maintain "minimum net capital" equivalent to \$5,000 or 6 2/3% of "aggregate indebtedness," whichever is greater, as these terms are defined. At December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$390,659, which was \$385,659 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. The Company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital ratio is .0797 at December 31, 2024. The Company is also subject to the CFTC's minimum capital requirements under Regulation 1.17. Under these rules, the Company is required to maintain "adjusted net capital" equivalent to the greater of \$45,000 or \$3,000 per associated person or \$6,000 per office including the main office. At December 31, 2024, the Company's net capital of \$378,699 which exceeded the required net capital under Regulation 1.17 by \$333,699. The Company's minimum net capital requirement is the greater of the requirement under Regulation 1.17 or Rule 15c3-1. #### বঁ Commitments and Contingencies As of December 31, 2024, management is unaware of any claims or legal proceedings against the Company; however, the nature of the Company's business subjects it to various claims, {12}------------------------------------------------ # 4. Commitments and Contingencies, continued regulatory examinations, and other proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The eventual outcome of any such actions against the Company could have an adverse impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company. # 5. Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Concentration of Credit Risk The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk include cash. The Company maintains its cash accounts with one financial institution. The total cash balances of the Company are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to \$250,000 per depositor, per bank. The Company monitors such credit risk and has not experienced any losses related to such risks. At December 31, 2024, the Company's cash exceeds FDIC limit by \$43,537. Since the Company does not clear its own securities and futures transactions, it has established accounts with clearing brokers for this purpose. This can and often does result in a concentration of credit risk with these firms. Such risk, however, are mitigated by each clearing broker's obligation to comply with rules and regulations of the SEC and the CFTC. At December 31, 2024, a significant credit concentration consisted of 10% of the net equity of the Company with one of the Company's clearing brokers. The Company's customers' securities transactions are introduced on a fully disclosed basis with its clearing broker. The clearing brokers carry all the accounts of the customers of the Company and offer the following services: 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 customers may be unable to fulfill their contractual commitments wherein the clearing broker may charge any losses it incurs to the Company. The Company seeks to minimize this risk through procedures designed to monitor the creditworthiness of its customers and that customer transactions are executed properly by the clearing broker. As of December 31, 2024, management believes that the Company has no significant exposure to client debit risk, cash, or receivables from broker dealers. #### 6. Guarantees FASB ASC 460, Guarantees ("ASC 460"), requires the Company to disclose information about its obligation under certain guarantee arrangements. FASB ASC 460 defines guarantees as contracts and indemnification agreements that contingently require a guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying factor (such as an interest or foreign exchange rate, security or commodity price, an index or the occurrence or nonoccurrence of a specified event) related to an asset, liability or equity security of a guaranteed party. This guidance also defines guarantees as contracts that contingently require the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on another entity's failure to perform under an agreement, as well as indirect guarantees of the indebtedness of others. The Company has issued no guarantees effective at December 31, 2024 or during the year then ended, except as described in Note 5 above. {13}------------------------------------------------ #### 7. Receivables from Broker Dealers Amounts receivable from broker dealers as of December 31, 2024, consist of cash deposits of \$39,257, commissions receivable of \$102,227, and interest receivable of \$19,788. #### 8. Financial Instruments Credit Loses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) ("ASU 2016-13"). This ASU amends several aspects of the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments, including replacing the existing incurred credit loss model and other models with the Current Expected Credit Losses model ("CECL"). Under CECL, the allowance for losses reflects management's estimate of credit losses over the remaining expected life of the financial assets and expected credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as changes to expected credit losses during the period, would be recognized in earnings. Expected credit losses will be measured based on historical experience, current conditions, and forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount and will be generally recognized earlier than under current standards.

Broker Dealer - Single Reportable Segment During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company adopted FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting, as amended by the FASB ASU 2023-07. The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of several classes of services, including principal transactions, agency transactions, investment banking, investment advisory, and venture capital businesses. The Company has identified its President 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 Note 3), 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. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company reflects all components of segment revenue and significant expenses, as required by ASC 280, on the Statement of Operations. 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. #### 12. Subsequent Events The Company's management has evaluated events and transactions through February 21, 2025, the date the financial statements were available to be issued, noting no material events requiring disclosure in the Company's financial statements. {15}------------------------------------------------ # SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULES {16}------------------------------------------------ #### Schedule I #### COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL UNDER RULE 15C 3-1 OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE ### DECEMBER 31 2024 ## COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL PURSUANT TO SEC RULE 15C 3-1 | Total Stockholders' equity | S | 656,719 | |-------------------------------------------------------|---|--------------------| | DEDUCTIONS AND/OR CHARGES | | | | NON-ALLOWABLE ASSETS | | | | Prepaid expense | | (15,803) | | Other asset | | (208,066) | | Securuties owned, at fair value | | (6,667) | | Receivable from broker dealer | | (29,034) | | Other receivable | | (1,619) | | NET CAPITAL BEFORE HAIRCUT | | 395,530 | | Haircut | | (4,871) | | NET CAPITAL | | 390,659 | | Minimum Capital Requirement Per SEC Rule 15C 3-1 | | | | EXCESS NET CAPITAL | | (5.000) | | EXCESS NET CAPITAL AT 120% | | 385,659 | | | | 384 659 | | COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL PURSUANT TO CFTC RULE 1.17 | | | | Total Stockholders' equity | | 656,719 | | DEDUCTIONS | | | | NON-CURRENT ASSETS | | | | Prepaid expense | | (15,803) | | Other asset | | (208,066) | | Securuties owned, at fair value | | (6,667) | | Receivable from broker dealer | | (40,994) | | Other receivable | | | | NET CAPITAL BEFORE HAIRCUT | | (1,619)

Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Also, as required by Regulation 1.16 of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), we have made a study of the practices and procedures followed by the Company including consideration of control activities for safeguarding customer and firm assets. This study included tests of such practices and procedures that we considered relevant to the objectives stated in Regulation 1.16 in making the periodic computations of minimum financial requirements pursuant to Regulation 1.17. Because the Company is an introducing broker (as defined by CFTC Regulation 1.3(mm)), we did not review the practices and procedures followed by the Company in making the following: - 1. The daily computations of the segregation requirements of Sections 4d(a)(2) and 4d(f)(2) of the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder, and the segregation of funds based on such computations; - 2. The daily computations of the foreign futures and foreign options secured amount requirements pursuant to Regulation 30.7 of the CFTC. The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control and the practices and procedures referred to in the preceding paragraph. In fulfiling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls and of the practices and procedures referred to in the preceding paragraph and to assess whether those practices and procedures can be expected to achieve the CFTC's previously mentioned objectives. Two of the objectives of internal control and the practices and procedures are to provide management with reasonable but not absolute assurance that assets for which the Company has responsibility are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Regulation 1.16(d)(2) list additional objectives of the practices and procedures listed in the preceding paragraph. Because of inherent limitations in internal control and the practices and procedures referred to above, error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of them to future periods is subject to the risk that they may become inadequate of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of their design and operation may deteriorate. {19}------------------------------------------------ ![](_page_19_Picture_0.jpeg) A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraphs and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses. Given these limitations during our audit, we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control and control activities for safeguarding customer and firm assets that we consider to be material weaknesses. We understand that practices and procedures that accomplish the objectives referred to in the second paragraph of this report are considered by the CFTC to be adequate for its purposes in accordance with the Commodity Exchange Act, and related regulations, and that practices and procedures that do not accomplish such objectives in all material respects indicate a material inadequacy for such purposes. Based on this understanding and on our study, we believe that the Company's practices and procedures were adequate at December 31, 2024, to meet the CFTC's objectives. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, Board of Directors, and stockholders of SNC Capital Management Corporation dba ROM Securities, the National Futures Association, and other regulatory agencies that rely on Regulation 1.16 of the CFTC in their regulation of registered introducing brokers, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
