## **MAY CAPITAL GROUP, LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024**
#### *1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS*
May Capital Group LLC (the "Company"), was formed as a limited liability company on August 15, 1994 in the State of New Jersey.
The Company is a fully disclosed broker dealer and sells mutual funds, variab le life insurance and variable annuities as outlined in their FINRA membership agreement.
### **2.** *SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES*
#### **Revenue Recognition**
Commissions: Commissions and fees received from the sale of mutual funds and variable annuities are recognized at the time the associated service is fulfilled, including the investment company receiving the application which is based on the trade date.
#### **Distribution Fees**
The Company enters into agreements with Mutual Funds, Variable Life and Variable Annuities ("Funds") to distribute shares to investors. The Company may receive distribution fees paid by the Fund upfront, over time, upon the investors exit from the fund, or as a combination thereof. The Company believes that its performance obligation is the sale of securities to investors and as such this is fulfilled on the trade date. Any fixed amounts are recognized on the trade date and variable amounts are recognized to the extent it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur once the uncertainty is resolved. For variable amounts, as the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the shares at future points in time as well as the length of time the investor remains in the fund, both of which are highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence. The Company does not believe that it can overcome this constraint until the market value of the Fund and the investor activities are known, which usually occurs monthly or quarterly. Mutual Fund Fees, Variable Life and Variable Annuity Fees recognized in the current period are primarily related to performance obligations that have been satisfied in prior periods.
#### **Property and Equipment**
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation had been computed using accelerated methods of depreciation. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incu1Ted. Additions and improvements are capitalized.
#### **Income Taxes**
No provision for Federal or State income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements since such liabilities and related expenses are the responsibility of the member. The Company is responsible for a NYC unincorporated business tax on income, which is calculated at the statutory rate.
{9}------------------------------------------------
### **Use of Estimates**
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the 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.
### **3.** *NEW ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE*
In June 2016, the F ASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-1 3 - CLment Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") which replaces the current incurred loss model used to measure impairment loss with an expected loss model for trade and other receivables. The Company adopted the standard during 2020, under the modified retrospective approach to the earliest period resented. The adoption of ASU 2016-1 3 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
#### 4. *CASH FLOW INFORMATION*
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
#### **5.** *ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE*
Accounts receivable represent commissions due from mutual funds, insurance companies and trust sponsors. Management has determined that no allowance for credit losses is necessary at December 31, 2024.
### **6.** *CONCENTRATION OF CUSTOMER RECEIVABLES*
For the year ended December 31, 2024, three customers accounted for 88% of the Company's Accounts Receivable.
### 7. *DISAGGREGATED REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WTH CUSTOMERS*
Mutual Funds, variable life and variable annuities:
| Commission income | \$143,739 |
|-------------------------------------------------|-----------|
| Mutual Fund trails | \$ 22,319 |
| Total mutual funds, variable life and annuities | \$166,058 |
{10}------------------------------------------------
### **8.** *NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS*
The Company is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-l), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital of \$5,000 and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to the net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2024 the Company had net capital of \$71,001 which was \$66,00 I in excess of the amount required. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 9.49%.
#### 9. *BROKER DEALER* - *SINGLE REPORTABLE SEGMENT EXAMPLE*
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 8), 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. 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.
### **10.** *SUBSEOUENT EVENTS*
The Company has eva luated subsequent events through April 9, 2025, the date on which these financial statements were available to be issued. The Company did not identify any material subsequent events requiring adjustment to or disclosure in its financial statements.
### **11.** *RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS*
The Company entered into an Expense Sharing Agreement with May Financial Group, LTD ("Affiliate") dated January 4, 20 18. The agreement provides that May Capital Group LLC will pay Affiliate \$830 per month for: Rent, administrative costs, telephone and postage. The total paid for 2024 was \$9, 130. At December 31 , 2024, there was \$830 due to May Financial Group under the arrangement.

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 PAS accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

Our review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about May Capital Group, LLC's compliance with the exemption provisions. A review is substantially less in scope than an examination, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on management's statements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to management's statements referred to above for them to be fairly stated, in all material respects, based upon the Company's business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5, and related SEC Staff Frequently Asked Questions.
