(the "Company") as of December 31, 2024, the related statements of income, changes in stockholder's equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### *Basis for Opinion* These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. {5}------------------------------------------------ #### *Opinion on the Supplemental Information* The supplemental information in Schedule G, Schedule J, and Schedule M (the "Supplemental Schedules") has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The information in the Supplemental Schedules is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our audit procedures include determining whether the information in the Supplemental Schedules reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the Supplemental Schedules. In forming our opinion on the information in the Supplemental Schedules, we evaluated whether the information in the Supplemental Schedules, including its form and content is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the information in the Supplemental Schedules is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Portland, Oregon March 19, 2025 We have served as the Company's auditor since 2024. {6}------------------------------------------------ ### STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2024 ### ASSETS | Cash

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** StanCorp Equities, Inc. (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of StanCorp Financial Group, Inc. ("StanCorp"), whose ultimate parent is Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and various statesecurities regulators as a broker-dealer. The Company's securities-related activities are limited to having general discussions, primarily with financial intermediaries, about retirement plan funding choices which may include securities and group insurance products. Practically, the Company does not currently conduct any substantive securities activity. The primary responsibility of broker dealer representatives ("Representatives") is to market full-service recordkeeping services administered by Standard Retirement Services, Inc. ("Standard Retirement Services") and promote the availability and features of funding choices available through Standard Retirement Services' platform, including the unregistered stable value funds issued by the Standard Insurance Company ("Standard"). The Company has entered into Administrative Services and Treasury Agreements (the "Agreements") with StanCorp, Standard, and Standard Retirement Services, which provide for the allocation of expenses between the affiliates. Pursuant to the Agreements such expenses are to be allocated at cost, as determined by the provider of the services. Standard and Standard Retirement Services are each wholly-owned subsidiaries of StanCorp. These allocated costs may not be comparable to those that would be exchanged between unrelated parties. In 2025, the Company adjusted its processes, personnel and accounting to reflect that Standard is the entity responsible for the marketing and distribution of unregistered securities and group insurance products. See "Subsequent Events" for further information. **Operating Segments** — The Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is considered to be the management committee comprised of the Company's President, FINOP, and Chief Compliance Officer. The CODM allocates resources and assesses performance based upon total assets, net capital, and net income that are included in the accompanying statement of financial condition and statement of income. Discrete financial information is not available other than on a company-wide basis. Accordingly, the Company operates as a single operating segment. **Basis of Presentation** — The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). **Cash**— Cash includes cash on deposit with financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash at federally insured banking institutions, which can exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation's ("FDIC") insurance coverage, and as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to the amounts in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. **Due to and from Affiliates** —Amounts due to and from affiliates consist of allocated overhead cost from StanCorp and its affiliates and operating expense offset for services provided to affiliates. The Company did not record an allowance related to receivables from affiliates in 2024, nor was there any activity related to an allowance recorded throughout the year. Amounts due to affiliates were \$327,256 as of December 31, 2024. Amounts due from affiliates were \$676,446 as of December 31, 2024. See {11}------------------------------------------------ "Variable Allocated Expenses — Related Party" and "Operating Expense Offset for Services Provided to Affiliates — Related Party" for further information. **Prepaid Expenses** — Prepaid expenses are amounts paid to vendors in advance of when services are provided which include expenses such as conference fees, event sponsorships and subscriptions. **Commissions Payable** — Commissions payable are due to external brokers and registered representatives of the Company for Standard's and Standard Retirement Services' business sold or serviced. **Payroll Related and Other Payables** — Payroll related and other payables include payroll related expenses and other accrued operating expenses that have been incurred in generating revenue as of yearend, but which will be settled subsequent to year-end. **Commission Expense**— Commission expense represents commission payments to external brokers for Standard's business sold or serviced, which is recorded on a trade date basis or as incurred. Commission expense also includes incentive compensation paid to the Company's representatives, which is expensed as incurred. **Commission Income** — The Company records commission income in the form of reimbursement from Standard and its affiliates at the point in time when the corresponding commission expense is incurred, per the terms of the Agreements between the Company and Standard. The Company is a principal underwriter, or a distributor, of insurance-based investment products issued by Standard. The Company's performance obligation is to facilitate the purchase and servicing of such products issued by Standard, and marketed by the Company wholesalers. The performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time or over time. Remuneration for services may take the form of contractual commission payments or pay-for-performance bonuses paid to Company wholesalers, both of which are considered commission income. Commission income from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized when the contract is sold and funded, and commission expense is recognized. Commission expense is paid to unaffiliated brokers and the Company wholesalers. During 2024, revenue recognized at a point in time totaled \$12,234,758. Commission income from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized pursuant to an agreement between the Company and independent producers for ongoing servicing of products. Commission expense is recognized as a percentage of assets in the contract. During 2024, revenue recognized over time totaled \$11,883,259. The Company considered the terms of the Agreements with its affiliates and the lack of any variable consideration features in the nature of the revenue received when concluding there were no remaining unsatisfied performance obligations in relation to the commission activity which occurred during the fiscal year. **Personnel Expense** — Personnel expense represents salaries and benefits paid to the Company's personnel and is recognized as incurred. **Sales and Travel Expense** — Sales and travel expense represents expenses incurred for sales conferences and promotions for the Company's services and Standard's products. **Service and Administration Fees** — Service and administration fees represent fees paid to external vendors for bank fees and fund administration fees and are recognized as incurred. {12}------------------------------------------------ **Telephone Expense** — Telephone expense includes phone service fees and long distance services, as incurred. **Printing and Postage Expense** — Printing and postage includes educational and marketing materials used in the Company's retirement plan business and are recognized as incurred. **Variable Allocated Expenses** —**Related Party** — Variable allocated expenses consist of allocated overhead cost from StanCorp and affiliates which include, but are not limited to occupancy, information technology expenses, human resources, accounting and legal costs. Such expenses are allocated based on actual costs incurred, are recognized in the period incurred, and are payable monthly to affiliates. **Other Expenses** — Other expenses include office supplies, data processing software, professional fees, regulatory fees, equipment expense, insurance, and other miscellaneous operating expenses, and are recognized as incurred. **Operating Expense Offset for Services Provided to Affiliates — Related Party** — Pursuant to the Agreements with StanCorp, Standard, and Standard Retirement Services, non-commission expenses are allocated to these affiliates by an operating expense offset as these costs are incurred in conjunction with the compliance and licensing services, sales and client services and miscellaneous services that the Company provides to support the operations of StanCorp, Standard, and Standard Retirement Services. These expenses are payable monthly to affiliates. **Income Taxes** — For income tax purposes, the Company's operations are included in a consolidated income tax return filed by StanCorp; however, in accordance with the Company's policy, the Company computes the provision for income taxes as if it were filing a separate income tax return for financial statement purposes. If any tax is allocated to the Company, StanCorp pays estimated federal tax and the Company settles with StanCorp quarterly. State tax filing is combined to include both StanCorp and the Company. State tax filing is combined to include both StanCorp and the Company. StanCorp pays quarterly estimates to the state and the Company settles with StanCorp annually. The Company did not have any material uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2024, the Company is subject to examination by the IRS for the years 2021 through 2024 and not subject to exam for years prior to 2021. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had a net deferred tax asset of \$1,237,022, which is entirely attributable to accrued sales and commission bonuses with no offsetting deferred tax liabilities. The balance is comprised of \$947,565 federal DTA and \$289,457 state DTA with an immaterial valuation allowance. Included in the provision for income tax expense was \$324,346 of deferred tax benefit for 2024. Total income taxes may differ from the amount computed by applying the federal corporate tax rate of 21% because of the net result of permanent differences and the inclusion of state and local income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be fully realized. The combined federal and state effective tax rate was 100% for 2024. The primary cause for the difference in the effective tax rate was due to the allocation of expenses to StanCorp, Standard, and Standard Retirement Services via an operating expense offset. See "Operating Expense Offset for Services Provided to Affiliates – Related Party" for more information. It is the Company's accounting policy to record interest paid on income tax liabilities as interest expense. Income tax penalties incurred are recorded as an operating expense. The Company did not incur any penalties or receive any refunds during 2024. **Use of Estimates** — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the {13}------------------------------------------------ reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. #### **Accounting Pronouncements** #### **Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07,** *Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures* In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, *Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures*, which requires public entities to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual basis. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them or applies the quantitative threshold to determine its reportable segments. The new disclosure requirements are also applicable to entities that account and report as a single operating segment entity. This ASU is effective for the Company's December 31, 2024 disclosures, with no impact to the financial statements. Refer to "Operating Segments" section above for the disclosures related to the Company's single operating segment. **Subsequent Events** — In 2025, the Company updated its processes, personnel and accounting to align with its current purpose. The Company's original business purposes was to serve as a wholesale distributor for registered Standard group variable annuities; however, Standard no longer sells such registered products. Currently, the Company serves to market and promote recordkeeping services and insurance products on behalf of Standard Retirement Services and Standard, respectively, primarily to brokers and does not conduct any substantive securities activity. To align with this purpose, the Company made the following changes effective January 1, 2025: - x Since a principal underwriter is no longer required for insurance products manufactured by the Standard, the Company has been removed from existing selling agreements and is no longer a party to any new selling agreements, between brokers and the Standard. - x Commission expense and revenue related to insurance product sales are no longer recorded to the Company. - x The Company's employees became employees of Standard Retirement Services. - x Only costs related to the maintaining the Company as a broker-dealer, such as personnel expenses for key individual and regulatory and compliance costs, are recorded as operating expenses of the Company. All other operating expenses, including expenses related sales, marketing and travel, will be recorded directly to Standard and Standard Retirement Services. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued, March 19, 2025 and concluded that there are no other material subsequent events which would require further disclosure. ### **2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** The Company may become involved in various legal matters and regulatory inquiries or examinations in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not aware of any material contingencies relating to such matters that would require accrual or disclosure in the financial statements or their notes as of December 31, 2024. The Company does not have an guarantees or other commitments as of December 31, 2024. {14}------------------------------------------------ ### **3. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS** The Company is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule adopted by the SEC, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital of the greater of six and two-thirds percent (6-2/3%) of aggregate indebtedness or \$5,000. The Company had net capital, as defined, of \$2,453,768 as of December 31, 2024, which was \$2,011,291 in excess of the net capital requirement. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 2.70 to 1 as of December 31, 2024. The declaration and payment of dividends or return of capital to StanCorp is subject to the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors depending on financial condition, cash requirements, future prospects, net capital requirements and approval from FINRA. The Company declared no dividends during 2024. \*\*\*\*\*\* {15}------------------------------------------------ # **Supplemental Schedule G STANCORP EQUITIES, INC.** ### **COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL FOR BROKERS AND DEALERS PURSUANT RULE 15c3-1 AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2024** | COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL | | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------| | Stockholder's equity \$ | 4,809,580 | | Less: nonallowable assets | 2,355,812 | | Net capital before haircut on security positions
