### **1. Organization**

Bournehill Investments Services, Inc. (formerly known as Callaway Financial Services, Inc.) ("Bournehill" or "the Company") became a FINRA member broker-dealer in September 2000. The Company is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of FINRA. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of IHT Holding, Inc. (the Parent.) The Company conducts a traditional retail business, and acts in the capacity of an introducing broker, clearing all transactions through Axes Clearing LLC.

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

## **Basis of Presentation**

The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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.

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company.

#### **Cash**

Cash consists of cash in banks, primarily held at two financial institutions which did not exceed federally insured limits.

# **Fair value measurement**

The carrying amounts of the following financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their fair values: accrued expenses and other liabilities, due to their short-term nature.

### **Leases**

The Company recognizes and measures its leases in accordance with F ASB ASC 842, Leases. The Company is a lessee in a noncancellable operating leases, for office space. The lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized based on the present value of its future lease payments. The discount rate is the implicit rate if it is readily determinable or otherwise the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. The implicit rates of our leases are not readily determinable and accordingly, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date for all leases. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms and in a similar economic environment. The ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the remeasured lease liability (i.e., present value of the remaining lease payments), plus unamortized initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received, and any impairment recognized. Lease cost for lease payments is recognized on a straightline basis over the lease term. The discount rate used to determine the lease liability and right of use asset was 4%.

The Company has elected, for all underlying classes of assets, 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 the lease cost associated with its shortterm leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

# 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

## Income Taxes

At December 31, 2022, management has determined that the Company had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition. This determination will always be subject to ongoing reevaluation as facts and circumstances may require.

The Company also applies ASC Topic 740-10, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" which sets out a framework for management to use to determine the appropriate level of tax reserves to maintain for uncertain tax positions. This interpretation uses a twostep approach wherein a tax benefit is recognized if a position is more likely than not to be sustained, and the amount of benefit is then measured on a probabilistic approach, as defined in the ASC Topic. The ASC Topic also sets out disclosure requirements to enhance transparency of an entity's tax reserves.

### 3. Deposit with clearing broker

Pursuant to an agreement with its clearing broker, Axos Clearing, the Company is required to maintain a clearing deposit of \$50,000.

#### 4. Related Party Transactions

On March 151 2022, the Company and the parent entered into an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Expense Sharing Agreement"). In accordance with the Expense Sharing Agreement, the Company is charged, on a monthly basis, for a proportional share of related expenses from the parent.

#### 6. Lease Commitments

The Company has obligations as a lessee for office space, with initial noncancellable terms in excess of one year. The Company classified this lease as an operating lease. The Company's lease does not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants.

Amounts reported in balance sheet as of December 31 , 2022 were as follows: Operating lease ROU asset\$ 8,112 Operating lease liability \$ 8,172

Maturities of lease liabilities under noncancellable operating leases as of December 31,

| Year ending December 31, Minimum Lease | Commitments |       |  |
|----------------------------------------|-------------|-------|--|
| 2023                                   |             | 8,240 |  |

| Imputed interest                       |             | (68)  |  |
| Lease liability                        | \$          | 8,172 |  |

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

# **6. Contingencies**

The Company's customers' securities transactions are introduced on a fully-disclosed basis to its clearing broker. The clearing broker carries all of the customer accounts and is responsible for collection and payment of funds and receipt and delivery of securities relative to customer transactions. These transactions may expose the Company to off-balance-sheet risk, wherein the clearing broker may charge the Company for any losses it incurs in the event that customers may be unable to fulfill their contractual commitments and margin requirements are not sufficient to fully cover losses. As the right to charge the Company has no maximum amount and applies to all trades executed through the clearing broker, the Company believes there is no maximum amount assignable to this right. The Company has the right to pursue collection or performance from the counterparties who do not perform under their contractual obligations. The Company seeks to minimize this risk through procedures designed to monitor the creditworthiness of its customers and to ensure that customer transactions are executed properly by the clearing broker, subject to the credit risk of the clearing broker. The Company maintains a deposit of \$50,000 with its current clearing broker.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to regulatory examinations, information gathering requests, inquiries, and investigations. As a registered broker/dealer, the Company is subject to regulation by the SEC, FINRA, and state securities regulators. In connection with formal and informal inquiries by those agencies, the Company may receive requests from such regulators. To date, there are no significant financial contingencies resulting from any regulatory reviews or inquiries.

## **7. Guarantees**

FASB ASC 460, Guarantees, requires the Company to disclose information about its obligations under certain guarantee arrangements.
