## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

## DECEMBER 31, 2025

## **Note 1. Organization and Nature of Business**

IBN Financial Services, Inc. (the Company) is a regional securities broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

The Company is an introducing broker, engaged principally in the trading and brokerage of investment company shares (mutual funds), equity securities, bonds and other investment products.

### **Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

### 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 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### Cash - Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

#### Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

#### Investments

Marketable securities in the Company's investment account are classified as available for sale and are valued at fair value pricing as those terms are described for financial statement purposes. All securities valuations are from quoted market prices (unadjusted) and are considered Level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy as established. For tax purposes, any unrealized gain or loss recognized on the investment account is removed from the calculation of taxable income.

{8}------------------------------------------------

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

# DECEMBER 31, 2025

## **Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** (continued)

#### Investments (continued)

Marketable securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rates, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the Company's account balances and the amounts reported on the balance sheet.

#### Property. Equipment and Depreciation

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Renewals and betterments of property are accounted for as additions to asset accounts. Repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using accelerated methods for financial reporting and income tax purposes. Estimated useful lives vary from 5 to 7 years for office equipment.

#### Securities Transactions

Proprietary securities transactions in regular-way trades are recorded on the trade date, as if they had settled. Profit and loss arising from all securities transactions entered into for the account and risk of the Company are recorded on a trade date basis. Customers' securities transactions are reported on a settlement date basis with related commission income and expenses reported on a trade date basis.

#### Commission Income

Commission and related clearing expenses are recorded on a trade date basis as securities transactions occur.

#### Income Taxes

The Company has analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to its financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded. In addition, the Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to this adoption.

# NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

# DECEMBER 31, 2025

# **Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** (continued)

# Income Taxes (continued)

The Company's policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income before taxes. There were no such items during the periods covered in this report.

The Company has elected to be treated as a Subchapter "S" Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and the New York State Corporation Tax Law. Under these elections, the income generally is taxed directly to the stockholders. New York State has a minimum tax on corporations, which resulted in a corporate level tax of \$3,000 and is reflected in these financial statements.

### Events Occurring After Reporting Date

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date which the financial statements were issued.

#### Segment Reporting

The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer 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, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits of pay distributions. 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.

### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

#### DECEMBER 31, 2025

#### **Note 3. Receivables from Clearing Organization and Funds**

The Company is engaged in various trading and brokerage activities whose counterparties include a fully disclosed carrying broker and other financial institutions. In the event the counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparty. The Company has not experienced any credit risk related to loss and there has been no bad debt related expense from these transactions during the reporting period. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty. The Company uses the direct write-off method in recognizing credit losses. There was no credit loss expense incurred during the year ended December 31, 2025.

#### **Note 4. Fair Value Measurement and Investments**

#### Fair Value Measurement

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income or cost approach are used to measure fair values.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels: Level 1 Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Company has the ability to access; Level 2 Inputs are inputs (other than quoted prices included within level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; Level 3 are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and rely on management's own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

| Investments -Available for Sale  | Level 1              |
|----------------------------------|----------------------|
| Fair value of equity securities: | Inputs<br>Fair Value |
| Equity securities                | \$<br>75,632         |

Investments are recorded at fair value. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis when calculating gains and losses.

# **Note 8. Off-Balance-Sheet Credit Risk**

In the normal course of business, the Company's customer transactions are cleared on a fully disclosed basis with a correspondent clearing broker-dealer. As such, the Company does not handle either customer cash or securities. In the event the customer fails to satisfy its obligations, the Company may be required to purchase or sell financial instruments at prevailing market prices to fulfill the customer's obligations. Settlement of these transactions is not expected to have a significant effect upon the Company's financial position.

The Company does not engage in proprietary trading of volatile securities such as short options and futures.

# **Note 9. Net Capital Requirements**

As a registered broker-dealer, IBN Financial Services, Inc. is subject to the requirements of Rule 15c3-1 (''The Net Capital Rule") under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The basic concept of the rule is liquidity, its object being to require a broker-dealer to have, at all times, sufficient liquid assets to cover its current indebtedness. Specifically, the rule prohibits a brokerdealer from permitting its "aggregate indebtedness" from exceeding fifteen times its "net capital" as those terms are defined and the rule also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. On December 31, 2025, IBN Financial Services, lnc.'s aggregate indebtedness and net capital were \$739,866 and \$142,496, respectively, a ratio of 5.19 to 1 and net capital exceeded the minimum capital requirement of \$49,324 by \$93,172.

## **Note 10. Employee Pension Plan**

The Company adopted a SIMPLE IRA that is available to all eligible employees. The Company has elected to match contributions up to 3% for 2025 compensation for each participating employee. The Company obligation for contributions to the plan as of December 31, 2025 was \$19,311, which consisted entirely of the Company's employer matching contribution.

## **Note 11. Related Party Transactions**

As described in Note 8, the Company leases office space from two stockholders. Payments on the lease amounted to \$54,699 for the year ended December 31, 2025.
