Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2025

### 1. Organization and Business

CCM Securities, LLC (the "Company"), an Illinois limited liability company, was formed on May 12, 2000 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bluefin Markets Holdings, L.P. (the "Parent"). The Company is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Company introduced clients to TJM Investments, LLC ("TJM") and received a portion of the revenue generated by the introduced clients. In 2024, the Company's introducing broker agreement with TJM was terminated.

# 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

### Revenue Recognition and Securities Valuation

Commission revenue and related expenses are recorded on a trade date basis. The carrying values of cash, receivables and payables approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("FASB ASC") Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. That guidance was amended to require business entities to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

### Use of Estimates

The preparation of this financial statement in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

### Income Taxes

No provision has been made for federal U.S. income taxes as the taxable income or loss of the Company is included in the respective income tax returns of the Parent.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to determine whether its tax positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, based on the technical merits of the position. Generally, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities for the years before 2022. Based on its analysis, there were no tax positions identified by management which did not meet the "more likely than not" standard as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

### 3. Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Customer transactions were previously introduced to and cleared through the Company's brokers on a fully disclosed basis. Under the terms of its clearing agreements, the Company is required to guarantee the performance of its customers in meeting contracted obligations. In conjunction with the brokers, the Company seeks to control the risks associated with its customer activities by requiring customers to maintain collateral in compliance with various regulatory and internal guidelines and, pursuant to such guidelines, customers may be required to deposit additional collateral, or reduce positions, where necessary.

### 4. Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15(c)3-1) and various exchange rules. Under the highest requirement, the Company is required to maintain "net capital" equal to the greater of \$100,000 or 6%% of "aggregate indebtedness", as defined.

### 5. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures

ASC 820 defines fair value, 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, as specified by ASC 820, are used to measure fair value.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

Notes to Statement of Financial Condition, Continued December 31, 2025

# 5.

- · 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. The unobservable inputs should be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company's own data.

At December 31, 2025, the Company held no Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 investments.

### 6. Guarantees

ASC 460, Guarantees, requires the Company to disclose information about its obligations under certain guarantee arrangements. ASC 460, defines guarantees as contracts and indemnification agreements that contingently require a guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in underlying (such as an interest or foreign exchange rate, security or commodity price, an index or the occurrence or nonoccurrence of a specified event) related to an asset, liability or equity security of a guaranteed party. This guidance also defines guarantees as contracts that contingently require the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on another entity's failure to perform under an agreement, as well as indirect guarantees of the indebtedness of others. The Compant was not party to any guarantee arrangements as of or during the year ended December 31, 2025.

### Credit Losses on Financial Instruments 8.

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments -Credit Losses, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, requires entities to establish an allowance for credit losses for most financial assets. Prior GAAP was based on an incurred loss methodology for recognizing credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost and available-for sale debt securities. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not taken any credit losses and does not anticipate that adoption of this rule will have a significant impact on the Company's Statement of Financial Condition.

### 9. Subsequent Events

The Company's management has evaluated events and transactions through February 11, 2026, the date the financial statement was available to be issued, noting no material events requiring disclosure in the Company's financial statements.
