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 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.

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. March 2, 2026

### NOTE 4 Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting standards define fair value as 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 (otherwise known as the exit price). As required by this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. 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 hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by this standard are as follows:

Level 1 - Fair value is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets in which the Company can participate. 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 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

Level 3 - Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management's best estimate of fair value. At each balance sheet date, the Company performs an analysis of all instruments subject to this standard and includes in Level 3 all of those whose fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs. The Company does not hold any Level 3 financial instruments as of December 31, 2025.

The Company's exchange-traded instruments and on-the-run treasuries are valued using quoted prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Positions that are considered off-the-run treasuries are classified within Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025.

### NOTE 8 Business Segments

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which includes engaging in principal transactions that are done for the benefit or loss of the member. The Company has identified its Financial and Operations Principal ("FINOP") as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"). The CODM evaluates the Company's performance and manages its operations using net income.

### NOTE 10 Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is engaged in various trading activities with counterparties which primarily include broker-dealers, banks, and other financial institutions. The Company trades on centrally cleared exchanges as well as on other third party and proprietary trading platforms. In the event that 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 or issuer of the instrument and/or the financial soundness of the clearing broker and the central clearinghouses. It is the Company's policy to periodically review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty. Included in such counterparty-related risks as well as market risks associated with potential operational malfunction of the proprietary trading platform of its affiliate group that is utilized by the Company.

The Company finances a significant portion of its securities transactions. The Company's financing activities are sensitive to interest rates. As benchmark interest rates increase and decrease, these movements may have an impact on the resulting interest recorded by the Company and that impact may be material to the Company's financial statements. Financing risks include the Company's exposure to margin requirements in place with clearing brokers and counterparties, and the risk that ongoing financing arrangements may not be available in the future at rates that are commercially viable for the Company. Changes in margin requirements, including the related changes in fair value of investments, may result in the Company having to pledge additional margin or to sell securities to meet required margin. These activities may take place when market conditions are not optimal and may result in a realized loss on securities transactions and additional margin requirements with clearing brokers and counterparties. Increased market risk may also require additional margin to be posted. In addition to counterparty-imposed margin requirements, as a regulated broker-dealer, the Company also must comply with SEC-mandated Net Capital rules. Noncompliance with Net Capital rules could have a material negative impact on the Company.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of financial instruments. Categories of market risk include, but are not limited to, exposures to equity prices, interest rates, commodity prices, credit prices, cryptocurrency prices, and currency prices. Social network-based/crowd-sourced trading have resulted in risk of severe and unexpected volatility in individual instruments that may have unforeseen consequences for holders of those instruments as well as for other instruments and market participants and therefore could negatively impact the Company. Market risk is directly impacted by volatility and liquidity in the markets. As a quantitative trading firm, the Company's trading volumes may vary significantly on an intraday basis as a result of changing market and economic conditions. Intra-day and end-of-day positions may not be representative of trading volumes conducted by the Company during the trading day.

### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT As of December 31, 2025 (Expressed in U.S. dollars in thousands unless otherwise stated)

In regards to written options, the writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the market price of the underlying asset declines (in the case of a put option) or increases (in the case of a call option). The writer of the option can never profit by more than the premium paid by the buyer but can lose an unlimited amount in the case of written call options.

The maximum financial exposure for written put options is limited to the number of contracts written and the related strike prices (assuming that the sale price of the underlying security is zero). As of December 31, 2025, the Company has a maximum financial exposure of approximately \$976,562 relating to written put option contracts. These written put option contracts have expirations from January 2026 to June 2026 as of December 31, 2025. As a result of writing option contracts, the Company is obligated to purchase or sell, at the holder's option, the underlying financial instrument. The maximum financial exposure of written put options contracts can be reduced if the Company sells short the underlying security as the written put options may reduce its maximum financial exposure. The fair value of these written put contracts as of December 31, 2025 is \$8,349.

The Company relies on service providers, including some of which are affiliates of the Company, that are integral to its revenue generating activities. A disruption of services provided such as connectivity may have an impact on the financial results of the Company.

The Company may invest directly in non-U.S. currencies, securities that are denominated in non-U.S. currencies, or in derivatives that provide exposure to non-U.S. currencies, and as such is subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by government entities, central banks or supranational entities, or by the imposition of currency controls or other geopolitical developments.

The Company has minimal sensitivity to interest rate changes. The Company trades interest bearing instruments but does not hold positions in those instruments for long periods of time, which is consistent with its overall business model. The Company monitors interest rates regularly for various aspects of the business and will be able to act accordingly based on the movement of interest rates. In the event that the Company decides to carry positions in interest bearing instruments, management will determine the appropriate amount of capital to allocate for the risk exposure created by the position.

### NOTE 11 Contingencies and Commitments

In the normal course of business, from time, the Company may be involved in legal or regulatory proceedings and/or inquiries concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of its operations. In the Company's opinion, there are no matters that may ultimately result from such legal and regulatory actions which are expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

A number of actions are pending against the Company that arise in the cryptocurrency/digital token field out of the de-pegging of the Terra USD stable coin (also known as UST) from the U.S. dollar and the collapse in the value of the related LUNA digital token. Despite the allegations in the complaints, the underlying events and allegations do not pertain to the Company but instead pertain to Jump Crypto Holdings LLC and affiliates.

Jump Crypto Holdings LLC.) Those actions are: (1) Patterson v.

Jump Trading, LLC et al., Case No. 2026L001531, pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. In addition to these actions, on February 23, 2026, the plaintiffs in a fifth case relating to these same events (Ward et al. v. Jump Trading, LLC et al., Case No. 25-cv-03989, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California) voluntary dismissed the action. In that filing, the plaintiffs indicated that they will re-file the complaint in the U.S. Distrct Court for the Northern District of Illinois.

The Company is a defendant in an adversary proceeding relating to the In re Mallinckrodt plc bankruptcy (Adversary Proceeding No. 22-50435, pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware). The Company (along with numerous other trading and investment firms) is a defendant in this lawsuit seeking to avoid/claw back open market stock transactions related to a stock-buyback program of opioid manufacturer Mallinckrodt on the grounds that the stock was overvalued at the time of the buybacks because Mallinckrodt had not disclosed its expected future opioid-related liability and was allegedly insolvent at the time.

The Company is a defendant in a patent infringement case filed by HFT Solutions (HFT Solutions, LLC vs. Jump Trading, LLC, Case No. 24-cv-13214, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois). The case concerns technology used in field programmable gate array computer chips manufactured by a third party.

The Company is a defendant in a purported cryptocurrency market manipulation case brought by FractureLabs OÜ (FractureLabs OÜ v. Jump Trading, LLC, Case No. 2025L010294, pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois). Following a December 16, 2025 hearing, the court granted the Company's motion to compel arbitration but the case remains pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, as the court scheduled a status conference for June 16, 2026. Despite the allegations in the complaint, the underlying events and allegations do not pertain to the Company but instead pertain to a wholly separate entity within Jump Trading Group that is not under the same holding company as the Company. FractureLabs OÜ is yet to institute arbitration proceedings against the Company following the court's order.

The Company is a defendant in a RICO lawsuit brought in which Skywave Networks, LLC alleges it was injured, among other reasons, because of the defendants alleged improper use of shortwave experimental licenses for commercial trading (Skywave Networks, LLC v. William J. DiSomma et al., Case No. 24-cv-9650, pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois). The court dismissed the complaint for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and Skywave's appeal of that decision is pending.

Based on available information, it is the opinion of the Company that the ultimate resolution of these pending or threatened legal actions, both individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

The Company may enter into agreements with indemnifications in the normal course of business.
