In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### *Basis for Opinion* The 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 of this financial statement in accordance with the standards of t11e 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.

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.

\$ | {5}------------------------------------------------ #### **Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2023** #### **NOTE A- ORGANIZATION** SIG Brokerage, LP (the "Entity") is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and its designated examining regulatory authority is the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. The Entity is also a member of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and the NYSE MKT. As a member, the Entity provides order execution services for affiliated registered broker-dealers on the NYSE and the NYSE MKT. The Entity is owned 99% by SIG Specialists Holdings, Inc. and 1 % by SIG Brokerage, LLC. ### **NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** #### **Financial Instruments** Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. ### **Cash** The Entity maintains a deposit account for cash, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits of \$250,000. #### **Revenue From Contracts** Revenue from contracts consists of order execution services provided to affiliates. Each time the Entity executes an order from an affiliate it has fulfilled all performance obligations set forth in the agreement, and therefore, recognizes and records the revenue on an execution date basis. #### **Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL")** The Entity assessed certain financial assets, as noted below, measured at amortized cost for credit losses using a CECL methodology to estimate expected credit losses over the life of the financial asset, as of the reporting date based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Receivable from clearing broker; the Entity has concluded that there are currently no expected credit losses based on the nature and contractual life or expected life of the financial assets held at the Entity's clearing broker. The Entity monitors the capital adequacy of such organizations. #### **Use of Estimates** This statement of financial condition has been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the use of estimates by management. Actual results could differ from those estimates. #### **NOTE C - RECEIVABLE FROM CLEARING BROKER** The clearing and depository operations for lhe Entity are provided by BofA Securities, Inc. At December 31, 2023, the amount receivable from clearing broker reflected on the statement of financial condition represents amounts due from this clearing broker. {6}------------------------------------------------ #### *Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2023* #### **NOTE D - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** The Entity executes trades for affiliated broker-dealers for which it receives a fee or owes a rebate, based on liquidity provided. The fee is based on monthly order execution charges, plus a surcharge to cover other costs. As of December 31, 2023, the affiliates owed the Entity \$885,696 related to these fees. The Entity is under common control with Susquehanna International Group, LLP ("SIG"). SIG acts as a common payment agent for the Entity for various direct operating expenses. No payable exists related to these direct operating costs. SIG may also provide ancillary and administrative services to the Entity and, in such event, such services are nominal to the Entity. Because of its short-term nature, the fair value of the receivable from affiliates approximates its carrying amount. The Entity and various other entities are under common ownership and control. As a result, management can exercise its discretion when determining which entity will engage in new or current business activities and/or trade new products. Therefore, the financial position presented herein may not necessarily be indicative of that which would be obtained had these entities operated autonomously. #### *NOTE E - INCOME TAXES* No provision for federal income taxes has been made because the Entity is taxed as a partnership and, therefore, is not subject to federal income taxes. The Entity is currently not subject to state or local income taxes. The Entity's U.S. federal income tax return is generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after it is filed. State and local tax returns and/or other filings may be subject to examination for different periods, depending upon the tax rules of each applicable jurisdiction. The Entity is not presently associated with an open tax examination. At December 31, 2023, management has determined that there are no material uncertain income tax positions. ### *NOTE F - NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT* As a registered broker-dealer and member firm of the NYSE, the Entity is subject to the SEC's Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1. The Entity computes its net capital under the basic method permitted by the rule, which requires tile maintenance of minimum net capital of 6-2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, as defined, or \$5,000, whichever is greater. At December 31, 2023, the Entity had net capital of \$3,599,403, which exceeded its requirement of \$58,607 by \$3,540,796. #### *NOTE G - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS* The Entity evaluated subsequent events to consider if the impact of such events needed to be reflected or disclosed on the statement of financial condition. Such evaluation was performed through February 27, 2024, the date that this statement of financial condition was issued. Source: SEC EDGAR via Adviser Search (https://search.stillhousedata.com).
