#### Note 1- Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

#### Nature of Business:

Rhodes Securities,Inc.(Company) was organized in 1987 as <sup>a</sup> Texas corporation. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as <sup>a</sup> broker-dealer in securities, and is <sup>a</sup> member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC).

The Company operates under the exemption provisions of SEC Rule 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and accordingly,is exempt from the remaining provisions of that Rule. The Company does not hold customer funds or securities and clears all transactions on behalf of customers on <sup>a</sup> fully disclosed basis through <sup>a</sup> clearing broker-dealer. The clearing broker-dealer carries the accounts of the customers and maintains and preserves all related books and records as are customarily kept by aclearing broker-dealer.

The Company operates as an independent full service broker-dealer in securities with its main office located in Ft Worth, Texas. The Company supports registered representatives located throughout the United States whose customers are primarily individuals.

#### Significant Accounting Policies:

#### Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

On May 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC Topic 842, *Leases* and has applied the effective date option and recognized <sup>a</sup> cumulative effect adjustment of \$269,993 in the period of adoption. There was no impact to opening retained earnings. We determine if an arrangement is <sup>a</sup> lease at inception. The operating lease right of use asset ("ROU") and the corresponding lease liability are reported separately on the Statement of Financial Condition.

#### Leases

On January 20, 2006, and subsequently amended most recently on March 30, 2016, the Company entered into one operating lease relating to our main office which expires on May 31, 2022. According to the terms of the lease agreement space was offered on an "as-is" basis with no option to renew or extend beyond the end of the lease term.

The ROU asset represents our right to use the underlying asset tor the lease term and toe lease liability represents our obligation to make lease payments arising from toe lease. Any future operating lease ROU asses and liabilities will be recognized at commencement date based on toe present value of lease payments over toe lease term. Our operating lease did not provide an implicit rate, we used our annual estimated incremental borrowing rate of 4.00% at May 1, 2019,based on toe estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over <sup>a</sup> similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives.

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

#### Brokerage Commissions

The Company buys and sells securities on behalf of its customers. Each time <sup>a</sup> customer enters into <sup>a</sup> buy or sell transaction, the Company charges <sup>a</sup> 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 <sup>a</sup> 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 have been transferred to the customer.

#### Distribution Fees - Mutual Funds and Insurance and Annuity Products

The Company earns revenue for selling mutual funds, variable annuities and insurance products. The performance obligation is satisfied at the time of each individual sale. A portion of the revenue is based on <sup>a</sup> fixed rate applied, as <sup>a</sup> percentage, to amounts invested at the time of sale. The remaining revenue is recognized over the time the client owns the investment or holds the contract and is generally earned based on <sup>a</sup> fixed rate applied, as <sup>a</sup> percentage, to the net asset value of the fund, or the value of the insurance policy or annuity contract. The ongoing revenue is not recognized at the time of sale because it is variably constrained due to factors outside the Company's control including market volatility and client behavior (such as how long clients hold their investment, insurance policy or annuity contract). The revenue will not be recognized until it is probable that <sup>a</sup> significant reversal will not occur.

#### Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the 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. Actualresults could differ from those estimates.

#### Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Substantially all of the Company's financial asset and liability amounts reported in the statement of financial condition are short term in nature and approximate fair value.

#### Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided for using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 4 to 7 years.

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

#### Note 1- Nature of Business and Summary of Significant AccountingPolicies, continued

#### Contract Balances

The Company's timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of customer payments. When there is an unconditional right to payment, according to the terms of the contract the Company records <sup>a</sup> receivable. For receivables with unsatisfied performance obligations, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. Receivables with no outstanding performance obligations are recognized as revenue upon issuance of the related invoice. The Company had receivables related to contracts from customers of \$358,551 and \$357,567 at April 30, 2019 and at April 30, 2020, respectively. The Company had no deferred revenue related to unrecognized engagement fees where the performance obligations have not yet been satisfied at April 30, 2019 and at April 30, 2020,respectively.

#### Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent future tax return benefits and consequences of those differences,which will either be taxable or deductible when foe assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.

Tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions are recognized in the period in which one of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) foe more likely than not recognition threshold is satisfied; (2) foe position is ultimately settled through negotiation or litigation; or (3) the statute of limitations for foe taxing authority to examine and challenge foe position has expired. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position are derecognized in foe period in which foe more likely than not recognition threshold is no longer satisfied. Any potential interest and penalty associated with <sup>a</sup> tax contingency, should one arise, would be included as <sup>a</sup> component of income tax expense in the period in which the assessment arises.

The Company is subject to state income taxes.

#### Note 2 - Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to foe SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1), which requires foe 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. At April 30,2020, the Company had net capital of \$184,583, which was \$134,583 in excess of its required net capital of \$50,000. The Company's net capital ratio was 2.31 to 1.

#### Note 3- Transactions with Clearing Broker-Dealer

The Company has an agreement with <sup>a</sup> clearing broker-dealer to provide clearing, execution and other related securities services. Clearing charges are incurred at <sup>a</sup> fixed rate multiplied by the number of tickets traded by foe Company. The agreement requires foe Company to maintain <sup>a</sup> minimum of \$75,000 in <sup>a</sup> deposit account with the clearing broker-dealer.

#### Note 9 - Related Party Transactions

The Company and Rhodes Investment Advisors,Inc.(RIA),arelated party registered investment advisor and insurance sales company, are under common control, and the existence of that control creates operating results and financial position significantly different than if the companies were autonomous.

The Company earned and reported \$600,019 in variable annuity commissions received by RIA during the year through dual licensed registered representatives with RIA.

Investment advisory fees received by the Company during Hie year from its clearing broker-dealer, totaling approximately \$2.3 million, were earned and reported as revenue of RIA.

The Company has <sup>a</sup> Services Agreement (Agreement) with RIA, effective July 2007. The Agreement is for <sup>a</sup> one year term, automatically renews on <sup>a</sup> year to year basis unless terminated by either party on 30 days notice prior to expiration of an annual term. Under the Agreement the Company is to provide office facilities, personal property and support services. The Company invoices RIA monthly tor toe expenses allocated and support services provided. The amounts invoiced and billed were not consummated on terms equivalent to arms length transactions and fluctuate on <sup>a</sup> monthly basis. The total amount billed to RIA under this Agreement were approximately \$293,000 tor the year ended April 30,2020 and have been reported as expense reimbursements or reductions of various expenses in toe statement of income.

The Company is the common paymasterfor RIA's registered representatives.

The Company generally settles toe amounts due to or from RIA monthly and at April 30,2020 no money was due to the Company from RIA.

#### Note 10-SubsequentEvents

In March, 2020, the World Health Organization declared toe outbreak of <sup>a</sup> novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as <sup>a</sup> pandemic, which continues to spread globally.While toe disruption is currently expected to be temporary,there is uncertainty around the duration.Therefore, the effects upon our business,results of operations,cash flows and financial position cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Management has evaluated toe Company's events and transactions that occurred subsequent to April 30, 2020, through June 26, 2020,the date the financials were available to be issued, and determined that no additional financial statement recognition or disclosure is necessary.
