In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### *Basis for Opinion* This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement 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 statement is 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 statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. 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 statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. We have served as the Company's auditor since 2024.

5,193,628 | {6}------------------------------------------------ NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 # **NOTE 1 - Organization and Nature of Operations** Landaas & Company (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wisconsin on July 20, 1989. The Company was converted to a limited liability company (LLC) on March 15, 2019, primarily managed by RWL Holdings, Inc., an S-Corp, and operates its business from its office in Milwaukee. The Company is registered as a broker/dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). The Company's business activities include securities brokerage, investment advisory, and asset management services. The Company has two classes of membership interest, .01 Class A membership units and .99 Class B membership units. Class A membership rights and privileges include voting rights. Class B membership rights and privileges include non-voting rights. All membership units have the right to the pro-rata share of the Company's earnings and losses. The Company operates under the provisions of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act") and, accordingly, is exempt from the remaining provisions of that Rule. The requirements of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) provide that the Company clear all transactions on behalf of customers on a fully disclosed basis with a clearing broker/dealer and promptly transmit all customer funds and securities to the clearing broker/dealer. The clearing broker/dealer carries all the accounts of the customers and maintains and preserves all related books and records as customarily kept by a clearing broker/dealer. # **NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** # *Basis of Presentation and use of estimates* The accompanying financial statement was prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of this financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of this financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. ### *Cash and Cash Equivalents* The Company defines cash and cash equivalents as highly liquid, short-term investments with a maturity at the date of acquisition of three months or less. The Company maintains cash balances at an FDIC insured commercial bank that may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. ### *Equity Securities* Equity securities transactions are recorded on the trade date and are reported at fair value as determined by market quotes with any unrealized gains or losses being recognized as unrealized gains on equity securities. ### *Accounts Receivable – Broker Dealer* The Company clears all its customers' transactions through another broker dealer on a fully disclosed basis. Based on the terms and conditions of the Company's agreement with its clearing broker dealer, the amount receivable from the clearing broker dealer represents cash on hand with the clearing broker dealer. {7}------------------------------------------------ NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 # **NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)** #### *Accounts Receivable – Other* Accounts Receivable - Other consists of expenses and due from various vendors. These expenses were paid back in the first quarter of the following year. ## *Commissions Receivable* Commissions receivable consists of commissions, mutual fund service, and insurance revenue that has been recognized but not yet received. The Company has evaluated the presentation requirements related to ASC 326-20, *Financial Instruments – Credit Losses* which requires the Company to estimate expected credit losses over the life of its financial assets. Management considers receivables to be fully collectible due to the collection of related receivables occurring in a short period of time. The Company has determined that an allowance for credit losses is not required. #### *Furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements, net* Furniture and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is calculated by straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful life of the asset, which generally ranges from three to ten years. The useful life of leasehold improvement assets is determined using the length of the lease term as this is shorter than the asset life. #### *Leases* The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases. The Company is a lessee in non-cancellable operating leases for office space and office equipment. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception of a contract and when the terms of an existing contract are changed. The Company recognizes a lease liability and right-of-use (ROU) asset at the commencement date of the lease. ### *Revenue Recognition* Commissions and related clearing expenses are recorded on a trade-date basis. Investment advisory fees are generally computed as a percentage of assets under management and recognized as earned. Fees for providing investment advisory services are computed and billed in accordance with the provisions of the applicable investment management agreements. See Note 3 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ### *Subsequent Events* The Company has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events through February 24, 2026, the date the Company's financial statement was available to be issued and determined that all subsequent events have been appropriately recognized and disclosed in the accompanying financial statement. #### *Income Taxes* The members of the Company have elected to treat the Company as a partnership under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Under such provisions, the Company is generally not subject to federal or state income taxes. The tax basis income or loss of the Company is reported on the personal income tax returns of its members. {8}------------------------------------------------ NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 ## **NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)** #### *Income Taxes (cont.)* As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes any interest and penalties as other expense in the Statement of Operations. The Company files U.S. Federal and Wisconsin income tax returns. The Company's U.S. Federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2021 and prior and Wisconsin income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2020 and prior, are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities. ### **NOTE 3 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers** The Company is a registered investment advisor and introducing broker/dealer providing asset management and brokerage services primarily to retail customers. ### *Performance Obligations* Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, the Company satisfies its performance obligations by transferring promised goods or services to customers. A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service. A performance obligation may be satisfied over time or at a point in time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that the Company determines the customer obtains control over the promised good or service. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those promised goods or services. #### *Investment advisory fees* The Company provides investment advisory services daily. The Company believes the performance obligation for providing advisory services is satisfied over time because the customer is receiving and consuming the benefits as they are provided by the Company. Fee arrangements are based on a predetermined percentage applied to the customer's assets under management at the previous quarter-end. Fees are received quarterly and are recognized as revenue over time as they relate to the services provided in that period, which are distinct from the services provided in other periods. On December 31, 2025, there was no unearned revenue. #### *Commission revenue* The Company earns commissions from mutual fund companies at a point in time when the Company's clients purchase securities. The Company may also earn commissions when clients sell securities. The commission earned varies on the type of security, the amount of the purchase, and the client's existing balance at that fund company. Commissions from securities transactions are recognized on a trade-date basis. ### *Mutual fund service fees* Mutual fund service fees are earned from fund companies to compensate the Company for its marketing and distribution efforts. Mutual fund service fees are asset-based fees that are determined by the amount of client assets invested in the fund. Revenue is recognized over time as the performance obligation to provide stockholder services is satisfied. {9}------------------------------------------------ NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 #### **NOTE 3 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers (cont.)** #### *Insurance commissions* Insurance commissions are derived from the sale of insurance products to clients. The insurance company pays an asset-based commission on the renewal date, depending on an agreed upon frequency by the insurance company. Revenue is recognized at a point at the time if the policy is in force. No revenue is earned on policies not in force at the renewal date. The Company has revenues not related to contracts with customers that consist of interest and dividends on securities as well as unrealized gains or losses on company securities. #### **Contract Balances** The following table presents the balances of receivables related to contracts with customers, recorded in Commissions Receivable on the Statement of Financial Condition: | | As of December 31, 2025 | |--------------------------|-------------------------| | Investment advisory fees | 12,000 | | Commission revenue | 18,066 | | Mutual fund service fees | 450,801 | | Insurance commissions | 172,414 | | | 653,281 | | | | ## **NOTE 4 – Concentration of Credit Risk** Accounts receivable primarily consists of commissions and other transaction-related fees receivable from clearing brokers and other broker dealers. On December 31, 2025, approximately 57% of the Company's accounts receivable – broker/dealer balance was due from Pershing, LLC, the Company's primary clearing broker, under a fully disclosed clearing agreement. The Company is subject to credit risk to the extent such counterparties are unable to fulfill their contractual obligations. Management believes that the risk of loss is mitigated by the creditworthiness of Pershing, LLC and by the short-term nature of the receivables. Accordingly, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2025. ### **NOTE 5 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments** The Company applies guidance related to fair value measurements which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. 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 (exit price) and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and {10}------------------------------------------------ # NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: # **NOTE 5 - Fair Value of Financial Instruments (cont.)** Level 1 - Fair value is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as listed equities. Level 2 - Fair value is based upon quoted prices for similar, but not identical, assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. This also includes quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 - Fair value is based upon financial models using primarily unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The table below presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the hierarchy. | | December 31, 2025 | | | | |-------------------|-------------------|---------|---------|---------| | | Total | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | | Equity Securities | 104,350 | 104,350 | - | - | The Company holds an investment in the capital stock of NASDAQ, Inc., which is classified as an equity security. The stock of NASDAQ, Inc. is publicly traded on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange and is considered a Level 1 measurement. # **NOTE 6 - Deposit with Clearing Broker/Dealer** The Company is dependent on its clearing broker/dealer, Pershing LLC ("Pershing"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank of New York Mellon, for the everyday processing of customer transactions as required under the provisions of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3. Pershing requires that the Company maintain a minimum deposit of \$100,000. ### **NOTE 7 – Furniture, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements** Furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements consist of the following at December 31, 2025: | Furniture and fixtures | 523,830 | |--------------------------------|-------------| | Office equipment | 354,570 | | Leasehold improvements | 452,025 | | Total | 1,330,425 | | Less: Accumulated depreciation | (1,052,754) | | Net | 277,671 | {11}------------------------------------------------ # **LANDAAS & COMPANY, LLC** NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 # **NOTE 8 - Net Capital Requirements** The Company is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) under the 1934 Act. As a member firm of FINRA, the Company is subject to the rules of FINRA, whose capital requirements are substantially the same as Rule 15c3-1. Rule 15c3-1 requires the 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. FINRA may also prohibit a member firm from withdrawing equity capital or paying cash distributions if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1 or be less than 120% of the minimum capital required. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$2,123,487, which was \$2,025,412 in excess of its required net capital of \$98,075. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 0.69 to 1 as of December 31, 2025. The Company is also subject to minimum capital requirements by certain state regulatory agencies and complied with these requirements as of December 31, 2025. # **NOTE 9 - Off-Balance-Sheet Risk** The Company's customers' securities transactions are introduced on a fully disclosed basis with its clearing broker/dealer. The clearing broker/dealer carries all the accounts of the customers of the Company and is responsible for the execution, collection and payment of funds, and receipt and delivery of securities relative to customer transactions. Off-balance-sheet risk exists with respect to these transactions due to the possibility that customers or the clearing broker/dealer may be unable to fulfill their contractual commitments wherein the Company may incur losses to satisfy the obligations to its customers or the clearing broker/dealer. The Company seeks to minimize this risk through procedures designed to monitor (i) the creditworthiness of its customers and the clearing broker/dealer and (ii) that customer transactions are executed properly by the clearing broker/dealer. ### **NOTE 10 - Leases** #### **Lease Commitments** In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, the Company's leases with terms longer than twelve months are recorded on the statement of financial condition. The Company leases office space and copiers which are all classified as operating leases. The lease for office space provides for increases in future minimum rental payments. The lease also includes real estate taxes and maintenance charges, which are excluded from the minimum lease payments. Future minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2025 are as follows: | 2026 | 290,367 | |-------------------------------------|---------------| | 2027 | 294,246 | | 2028 | 296,600 | | 2029 | 98,920 | | Total future minimum lease payments | 980,133 | | Less: imputed interest | 60,722 | | Present value of future payments | \$
919,411 | {12}------------------------------------------------ # **LANDAAS & COMPANY, LLC** NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2025 ### **NOTE 10 – Leases (cont.)** Other information related to leases was as follows: Weighted average remaining lease term (years): 3.4 Because we generally do not have access to the rate implicit in the lease, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The weighted average discount rate associated with our operating leases is 3.9% for 2025, which is determined using the prime rate at the inception date of the lease plus a premium. # **NOTE 11 – Commitments and Contingencies** # **Contingent Liabilities** In the normal course of business, the Company has entered into agreements that include indemnification provisions. The Company has also agreed to indemnify its directors, officers, employees, and agents in certain situations. The Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against us that have not yet occurred. However, the Company believes the risk of loss related to these agreements is remote. ## **NOTE 12 - Employee Benefit Plan** The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) savings plan (the "Plan") covering substantially all employees, under which it provides a discretionary matching contribution on employees' contributions subject to certain limitations. ### **NOTE 13 – Equity and Owner Distributions** The Company is a limited liability company that is taxed as a partnership. The members in the partnership consist of active members of the Company that receive distributions of the Company's net income. Each partner receives tax distributions that represent the taxes incurred as part of each member's ownership in the Company. These tax distributions include estimated state and federal income taxes on partnership income and one-half of Social Security and Medicare taxes on all compensation and income to the member. These distributions are provided on a quarterly basis using compensation data as well as the interim financial statements provided by the Company. Other distributions include discretionary distributions of partnership income that are provided on a quarterly basis. The total distributions for each quarter, which include both tax distributions and discretionary net income distributions, are provided on a pro-rata basis based on each member's ownership percentage of the Company.
