The Company, which was admitted as a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) (formerly known as NASD) member in 1994, provides investment banking services for middle market companies. These services include advising clients on mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, recapitalizations, placement of debt, equity securities and corporate valuations. The Company's shareholder is also the sole shareholder of three other legal entities sharing common ownership and management control. These entities were incorporated to provide management, professional and consulting services and are not subject to regulatory agencies' oversight. 2. Summary of significant accounting policies: Cash and cash equivalents: For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company generally considers short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Trade accounts receivable: As of January 1, 2023, the Company adopted a new accounting standard under U.S. GAAP that replaced the incurred loss model for measuring the allowance for credit losses with a new model that reflects current expected credit losses (CECL) that are expected to occur over the lifetime of the underlying receivable. The CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets that are measured at amortized cost, including trade accounts receivable. The Company adopted the change in accounting for credit losses using a modified retrospective method which requires recognition of a cumulative effect adjustment, if any, to the opening balance of of January 1, 2023. Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company accounts for estimated credit losses on financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures in accordance with FASB ASC 326-20, Financial Instruments Credit Losses. FASB ASC 326-20 requires the Company to estimate expected credit losses over the life of its financial assets and certain off-balance sheet exposures as of the reporting date based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company records the estimate of expected credit losses as an allowance for credit losses. For financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis, the allowance for credit losses is reported as a valuation account on the statement of financial condition that adjusts the asset's amortized cost basis. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are reported as credit loss expense. The Company had an allowance for credit losses of \$24,951.36 at December 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses may change in future years, based on collection history In July 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2025-05, which simplifies the measurement of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under ASC 606.Ð'dThe amendments permit entities to elect a practical expedient that assumes current conditions as of the balance sheet date remain unchanged throughout the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit {7}------------------------------------------------ 2. Summary of significant accounting policies continued: losses for in-scope financial assets. The update is intended to reduce complexity and the costs associated with applying the expected credit loss model for short-term receivables. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Use of estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Property and equipment and related depreciation: Property and equipment are stated at cost. Provisions for depreciation of property and equipment are computed under accelerated and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from 5 to 7 years. Investments: Investments consist of stock in private companies. These investments are carried on the Statement of Financial Condition at cost, as there is no readily available fair market value. Income taxes: The Company uses the cash method of accounting for tax reporting purposes and the accrual method of accounting for financial statement purposes. Since its inception, the Company elected to be taxed as an S Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions, the Company is not required to pay federal income taxes on its income, if any. Instead, the shareholder of the Company is liable for the federal income taxes on his respective share of the Company's income, if any. However, the Company is liable for state income taxes, where applicable. The Company provides for deferred income taxes to recognize the tax consequences of temporary timing differences, primarily from net operating losses, by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between financial statement amounts and those reported on the state tax return for income and expenses. The Company pays pass-through entity tax to the state of Illinois on behalf of the stockholder. Since the pass-through entity tax exclusively benefits the stockholder, the pass-through entity tax is recognized as a distribution to the stockholder. Total st December 31, 2025 included approximately \$69,403 of passthrough entity tax. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company for 2024, 2023, and 2022 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and the Illinois Department of Revenue, respectively, generally for three years after the returns were filed. {8}------------------------------------------------ # 3. Revenue recognition: The Company's revenues consist of success fee income, expense reimbursements and consulting fee income. # Success Fees The Company's success fee revenue for advisory arrangements is generally recognized when performance under the arrangement is completed (the closing date of the transaction) or another date specified in the contract. # Consulting Fees Consulting fee revenue is recognized over time for consulting 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 specific contracts. # Expense Reimbursements Reimbursable expenses are recognized over the period in which the expense is incurred and billed. Revenue includes all amounts billed to customers during the year and adjustments for the settlement of previously billed and disputed fees. Retainers and other fees received from customers prior to recognizing revenue are reflected as contract liabilities, if any. Periodically, the Company receives in lieu of cash consideration privately held stock in their customers, with revenue recognized equal to the amount that would have otherwise been received in cash. See Note 6. # 4. Credit risk: The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits, which is currently \$250,000 per financial institution. The Company has uninsured balances approximating \$2,298,568 as of December 31, 2025. Management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. 5. Major customers: Six customers accounted for approximately 76% and of the Company's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 and one customer accounted for 58% of AR balance at 12/31/2025. # 6. Employee benefit plans: The Company and its affiliates have a defined contribution retirement plan (401(k) plan) with a profit-sharing feature covering substantially all employees. Under the plan, the Company may make a discretionary contribution based on salary and contributions of all employees who meet the service requirements as prescribed by the plan. The expense related to this plan allocated to the Company was \$91,994 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company, at times, receives stock in private companies as a form of revenue, and at its discretion, may compensate its own employees by distributing them the stock. {9}------------------------------------------------ # 7. Lease commitments: The Company shares occupancy costs of its office facilities in Illinois with the three entities described in Note 8. Each entity is responsible for its agreed upon share of base rent and real estate taxes and operating expenses of the facilities, and the Company has recorded its proportionate share of expenses. The Company currently leases its office space under a noncancelable lease which expires on October 31, 2028. For the year ended December 31, 2025, rent expense for operating lease was \$61,154. 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, as described above. The Company recognizes a lease liability and the right of use (ROU) asset at the commencement date of the lease. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized based on the present value of its is 3.6%. . Lease cost for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has elected to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less at lease commencement and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company recognizes lease cost associated with its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Because the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the renewal options, the optional periods are not included in determining the lease term and associated payments under the renewal 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. Right of use lease asset consists of the following: | Right of use lease asset | \$182,142 | | |--------------------------------------------|-------------|--| | Less: Accumulated amortization | \$9.648 | | | Net | \$172,494 | | | Lease liability consists of the following: | | | | Undiscounted cash payments | \$188,136 | | | Less: discount | \$
