# MWA Financial Services, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

# December 31, 2025

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

## **Organization and Basis of Presentation**

MWA Financial Services, Inc. (the Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of Modern Woodmen of America (Parent), was incorporated on February 2, 2001, and began operating as a broker-dealer on October 10, 2001, upon its approval for membership with Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The Company deals primarily in the sale of proprietary and non-proprietary investment products. The Company clears its securities transactions on a fully disclosed basis through its clearing broker.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, MWAGIA, Inc., which is involved in the sale of non-proprietary insurance products. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

## **Use of Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. It is possible that actual experience could differ from the estimates and assumptions utilized.

## **Cash and Cash Equivalents**

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in the statement of financial condition for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Cash balances regularly exceed federally insured limits at certain financial institutions. The Company has not incurred any losses to date regarding these excess balances.

## **Software**

Capitalized software CCA (cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract) costs represent certain capitalization costs incurred to configure or customize hosted software arrangements

{10}------------------------------------------------

# Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

## **1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

utilized by the Company in its operations. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, these costs are capitalized and presented as a prepaid asset on the consolidated statement of financial condition.

Capitalized software costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related hosting arrangement, generally three years, and are included within Communications and Data Processing expense in the consolidated statement of operations. Amortization begins when the related module or component of the hosting arrangement is placed into service.

## **Income Taxes**

The Company and its subsidiary are included in the consolidated federal income tax filed by the Company. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rate. Deferred income tax expenses or credits are based on the changes in the asset or liability from period to period. The Company evaluates the deferred tax assets for recoverability and establishes a valuation allowance when it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

## **Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures**

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, *Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,*  defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. It is the Company's policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements, in accordance with the fair value hierarchy in ASC 820. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

- Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
- Level 2 other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

{11}------------------------------------------------

# Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

## **1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The Company did not have any fair value Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities at December 31, 2025.

Transfers between fair value hierarchy levels are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period. The Company did not have any transfers between levels during the years ended December 31, 2025.

# **Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL)**

The Company accounts for estimated credit losses on financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures in accordance with FASB ASC 326-20, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. FASB ASC 326-20 requires the Company to estimate expected credit losses over the life of its financial assets and certain off-balance sheet exposures as of the reporting date based on relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts.

The Company records the estimate of expected credit losses as an allowance for credit losses. For financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis the allowance for credit losses is reported as a valuation account on the balance sheet that adjusts the asset's amortized cost basis. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are reported in credit loss expense.

*Receivables from broker-dealers and others*. The Company's receivables from broker-dealers and others include amounts receivable from unsettled trades, estimated 12b-1 payments, cash deposits, amounts due from representatives and a clearing firm deposit. A portion of the Company's trades and contracts are cleared through a clearing organization and settled daily between the clearing organization and the Company. Because of this daily settlement, the amount of unsettled credit exposures is limited to the amount owed the Company for a very short period of time. The Company continually reviews the credit quality of its counterparties.

*Transactions with customers.* For transactions in which the Company, through the clearing broker, extends credit to customers, the Company seeks to control the risks associated with these activities by requiring customers to maintain margin collateral in compliance with various regulatory and internal guidelines. The Company and the clearing broker monitor required margin levels daily and, pursuant to such guidelines, request customers to deposit additional collateral or reduce securities positions when necessary.

{12}------------------------------------------------

# Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

# **1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

The Company has agreed to indemnify the clearing broker for any losses that it may sustain from the customer accounts introduced by the Company. At December 31, 2025, there were no amounts to be indemnified to the clearing broker for these customer accounts.

{13}------------------------------------------------

# Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

### **Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements**

#### **Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures**

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The amended guidance enhances income tax disclosures primarily related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This guidance requires disclosure of specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation and additional information on reconciling items meeting a quantitative threshold. In addition, the amended guidance requires disaggregating income taxes paid (net of refunds received) by federal, state, and foreign taxes. It also requires disaggregating individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid (net of refunds received) are equal to or greater than 5 percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). The amended guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted this guidance prospectively for the annual period ending December 31, 2025. For additional information, see "Note 4— Income Taxes."

{14}------------------------------------------------

# Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

## **2. Segment Reporting**

The Company is a single reporting segment comprised of MWA Financial Services, Inc. and MWAGIA, Inc. The Company is considered a single reporting segment as its operations are managed and reviewed on a consolidated basis for decision-making and performance evaluation purposes. All revenues are from customers located in the United States of America with no revenue from transactions with other operating segments. MWA Financial Services, Inc. is involved in the sale of registered proprietary and non-proprietary securities products and MWAGIA, Inc. is involved in the sale of non-proprietary general insurance products.

The accounting policies for segment reporting profit/loss and assets are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The measure of segment assets is reported on a consolidated basis in the consolidated statement of financial condition (page 3).

The chief operating decision maker (CODM) is the president and chief executive officer of the Company. The CODM assesses the performance for the segment and determines the allocation of resources based on net income, as reported in the consolidated statement of operations (page 4). The CODM also uses excess net capital (see note 5), which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy. The Company does not have intraentity sales or transfers.

Consolidated revenue from external customers in 2025 was \$29,404,513.

The following discussions describe the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows arising from the Company's contracts.

### **Policy concessions**

The Company has entered into agreements with several organizations to sell variable and fixed annuities as well as medical, dental, long term care, disability, disability income, and accidental death insurance to its customers. The Company's performance obligations are for the initial sale of a policy and subsequent ongoing servicing of the policies. The Company receives consideration daily, weekly and monthly and recognizes revenue for these concessions when amounts are known and transaction price can be determined and allocated. The Company does not recognize revenue for these fees until amounts are known as the revenue the Company will be entitled to is highly uncertain and susceptible to factors outside of the Company's control. Such factors include length of time policies remain active and amount of additional premiums paid by the policy holder.

## **3. Revenues from Contracts with Customers (continued)**

Variable amounts are recorded as policy administrative fees (12b-1 fees) and are based on the average daily policy net asset balances and agreed upon contractual rate. As the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the policy at future points in time as well as the length of time the investor remains in the policy, both of which are highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence, the Company does not believe that it can overcome this constraint until the market value of the policy and the investor activities are known, which are usually monthly or quarterly. 12b-1 fees recognized in the current period are primarily related to performance obligations that have been satisfied in prior periods but have been constrained until the current period because the fees are affected by changes in average daily policy balances and assets under administration.

### **Mutual fund concessions**

The Company has entered into agreements with several organizations to sell mutual funds to its customers. The related performance obligation is the successful sale of the mutual fund assets. The Company may receive distribution fees paid by the fund up front, over time, upon the investor's exit from the fund, or as a combination thereof. The Company believes that the performance obligation is satisfied on the trade date as that is when the underlying financial instrument or purchaser is identified, the pricing agreed upon and the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. The amount of revenue earned is determined by the value and type of each instrument sold based upon the contractual rate. The Company will recognize mutual fund sales concession revenues at the point in time the performance obligation has been satisfied, which is the trade date.

Variable amounts are recorded as fund administrative fees (12b-1 fees) and are based on the average daily fund net asset balances multiplied by the agreed upon contractual rate. As the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the shares at future points in time as well as the length of time the investor remains in the fund, both of which are highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence, the Company does not believe that it can overcome this constraint until the market value of the fund and the investor activities are known, which are usually monthly or quarterly. 12b-1 fees recognized in the current period are primarily related to performance obligations that have been satisfied in prior periods.

### **Brokerage equity commissions**

The Company has entered into agreements with its clearing broker to buy or sell equity investments to its customers. Each time a customer enters into a buy or sell transaction, the Company charges a commission. Commissions and related clearing expenses are recorded on the trade date. The

## **3. Revenues from Contracts with Customers (continued)**

Company believes that the performance obligation is satisfied on the trade date as that is when the underlying financial instrument or purchaser is identified, the pricing agreed upon and the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. The amount of revenue earned is determined by the value and type of each instrument sold. The Company will recognize equity sales commission revenues at the point in time the performance obligation has been satisfied, which is the trade date.

## **Investment advisory fees**

The Company has entered into agreements with several organizations to earn fees for servicing investment advisory accounts of its customers. The related 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. The Company receives asset-based fees monthly and quarterly for satisfying the performance obligations and are based on a percentage of the net assets maintained. The Company does not recognize revenue for these fees until amounts are known as the revenue the Company will be entitled to is highly uncertain and susceptible to factors outside of the Company's control. Such factors include market value of assets under management and the length of time investors hold their accounts.

Costs to fulfill the contracts with customer include commissions paid to agents for sales and servicing of the related assets and insurance products. These costs are related to performance obligations already satisfied and are expensed when incurred.

## **Field reimbursements**

The Company has entered into agreements with the registered representatives that sell the Company's products. The Company charges those registered representatives' fees to be properly licensed and registered with FINRA and other states or regulatory authorities, and firm technology fees. The expenses incurred by the Company are recorded within licenses and fees and other expenses on the statement of operations. The Company will recognize field reimbursement revenues at the point in time the performance obligation has been satisfied, which is the date the fee is charged.

## **Variable product distribution fee**

The Company has entered into agreements with Modern Woodmen of America to sell its variable annuity to its customers. The related performance obligation is the successful sale, subsequent ongoing servicing and monitoring of the variable annuity assets. For the subsequent ongoing servicing and monitoring of the variable annuity assets, the Company receives an agreed upon monthly fee based on assets under management and sales. The Company recognizes variable

product distribution fee revenues at the point in time the performance obligation has been satisfied, which is monthly.

# **Clearing firm service fees**

The Company has entered into an agreement with its clearing broker to receive fees and mark-ups related to services provided to customers, including transaction and account service fees processed through the clearing broker. The Company recognizes this revenue at the point in time the related service is provided to the customer, which generally corresponds to the date the fee is processed through the clearing broker.

## **4. Income Taxes**

The Company and its subsidiary file consolidated income tax returns, including only their own operations, since the ultimate parent company, Modern Woodmen of America, is a tax-exempt fraternal benefit society.

At December 31, 2025, the Company has a federal net operating loss carryover of \$10,389,973. The federal net operating loss carryover of \$10,138,219 arising in 2006 through 2017 may be carried forward until 2026 through 2037. The federal net operating loss arising in 2018 and later of \$251,754 does not have an expiration date. For state income tax purposes, the Company has a net operating loss carryover of \$44,475,188. The state net operating loss carryover of \$12,496,975 may be carried forward until 2026 through 2037. The state net operating loss carryover of \$31,978,213 does not have an expiration date. The net operating loss carryover represents the only significant temporary difference between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes at December 31, 2025. A valuation allowance has been recorded since, in the judgment of management, these assets are not more likely than not to be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which those temporary differences and carryforwards become deductible or are utilized. As of December 31, 2025, the established valuation allowance is \$2,452,744, because of the uncertainty of future income necessary for its ultimate realization.

The Company has analyzed all material tax provisions under the guidance of ASC 740, Income Taxes Related to the Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Tax, and has determined that there are no tax benefits that should not be recognized as of December 31, 2025. There are no unrecognized tax benefits that would affect the effective tax rates.

The Company does not believe it would be subject to any penalties or interest relative to any open tax years and, therefore, has not accrued any such amounts. The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns and income tax returns in various state jurisdictions. The 2022 through 2025 U.S.

At December 31, 2025, the Company had net defined capital of \$2,836,517, which was \$2,603,415 in excess of the required net capital of \$233,102 at that date. At December 31, 2025, the Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 1.23 to 1. Various other regulatory agencies may impose additional capital requirements.

{21}------------------------------------------------
