(the "Company") as of December 31, 2021, the related statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. #### **Basis for Opinion** These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements 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 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 statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 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 statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. #### **Supplemental Information** The information contained in Schedules I, II and III ("Supplemental Information") has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Company's financial statements. The Supplemental Information is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the Supplemental Information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the Supplemental Information. In forming our opinion on the Supplemental Information, we evaluated whether the Supplemental Information, including its form and content is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. § 240. l 7a-5. In our opinion, Schedules I, II and III are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. ~}-~~~- Alvarez & Associates, Inc.

(the "Company") was incorporated in the State of California on August 19, 2002. The Company is a registered broker-dealer with the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board ("MSRB"), and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). The Company has three locations: one in Sherman Oaks, California, one in New York, New York and one in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. #### **Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies** **Basis of Presentation** - The Company is an introducing broker-dealer that clears all transactions with and for customers on a fully disclosed basis with a registered securities clearing broker and promptly transmits all customer funds and securities to the clearing broker, which carries all of the accounts of such customers and maintains and preserves such books and records pertaining thereto pursuant to the requirements of the SEC Rule 17a-3 and 17a-4, as are customarily made and kept by a clearing broker or dealer. **Use of Estimates** - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Commissions** - The Company earns commissions by referring client transactions in mutual funds, and equities. Commissions revenue is recognized in the period earned when the performance obligation is satisfied. Customers' securities transactions and related commission income and expenses are recorded on a trade-date basis. **Securities Inventory** - Proprietary securities transactions in regular-way trades are recorded on trade date. Profit and loss arising from all securities and commodities transactions entered into for the account and risk of the Company are recorded on a trade date basis. Securities inventory positions are marked to market at the end of each reporting period. **Services** - The Company provides Depository Trust Company (DTC) Eligibility services to issuers of securities. Services and related income and expenses are recorded when the services are performed under the terms of the underlying engagements. **Accounts Receivable** - The Company uses the direct write off method when recording its Accounts Receivable and other balances receivable at net collection value. **Clearing Broker Deposit** - The Company has a clearing agreement with Wilson-Davis & Co., Inc. which requires a minimum deposit of \$100,000. The clearing broker deposit at December 31, 2021 was \$100,000. The Clearing Broker has custody of the Company's cash balances which serve as collateral for any amounts due to the Clearing Broker as well as collateral for securities sold short or securities purchased on margin. {9}------------------------------------------------ #### **Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)** **Income Taxes** - The amount of current taxes payable or refundable is recognized as of the date of the financial statements, utilizing currently enacted tax laws and rates. The Company recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with FASB ASC 7 40, *Income Taxes.* Under that guidance the Company assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances, and information available at the end of each period. The measurement of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when new information is available, or when an event occurs that requires a change. The accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by the Company in its Federal and State organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Company is subject to examinations by U.S. Federal and State tax authorities generally for three years after they are filed. ## **Note 3** - **Fair Value** FASB 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 FASB 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: - 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 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and rely on management's own assumptions about the 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.) {10}------------------------------------------------ #### **Note 3** - **Fair Value** ( **continued)** The following table presents the Company's fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021. ## **Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis As of December 31, 2021** | | Levell | Level2 | Level3 | Total | |--------------------------|--------|--------------|-----------|-------------| | Assets | | | | | | Securities Owned: | | | | | | Investments at Cost | | | \$202,000 | 202,000 | | Notes Receivable at Cost | | | 95,000 | 95,000 | | Penny Stocks | | \$ 1,407,234 | | 1,407,234 | | Total | \$ | \$1,407,234 | \$297,000 | \$1,704,234 | #### **Fair Value Measurement of Level 3 Investments** | Beginning Balance at December 31, 2020 | \$ 242,000 | |----------------------------------------|------------| | Purchases | | | Cash Disbursement | 55,000 | | Unrealized Gain/Loss | | | Ending Balance at December 31, 2021 | \$297,000 | Investment represents an equity investment in another entity with minimal operations to date, therefore the investment is currently held at cost. [See Note SJ Penny Stocks are valued using the last trade on December 31, 2021, or the best bid price if there were no trades on December 31, 2021. #### **Note 4** - **Commissions and Fees Payable** As of December 31, 2021, the Company had Commissions payable of \$145,999 and Referral fees payable of \$4,169, representing balances due to broker-dealers and registered representatives. {11}------------------------------------------------ #### **Note 5 - Related Party** Investments, at cost in the amount of \$202,000 as of December 31, 2021 represent an investment in GLEN Holdings Corp. ("GHC"), which is owned by the Company, certain shareholders, and officers of the Company. GHC is a holding company principally for the purchase of a controlling interest in the Company's clearing firm, Wilson-Davis & Co., Inc. ("WDCO"). Effective January 2018, WDCO is the Company's clearing broker for customer and proprietary transactions, as set forth in Footnote 2. In addition to GHC's current and pending interests in WDCO noted above, a Company officer and shareholder is a member of WDCO's Board of Directors. *As* of December 31, 2021, Due from clearing firm (related party), or WDCO, amounted to \$195,012 consisting of clearing transactions receivable. The clearing transactions receivable is recorded net of associated amounts payable on the Statement of Financial Condition. It is possible that the terms of certain related party transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions among wholly unrelated parties. #### **Note 6** - **Provision For Income Taxes** The Company files its tax returns on an accrual basis. The current income tax expense included in the statements of income as determined in accordance with FASB ASC 740 is as follows: | | Federal | State | Local | Total | |---------------------|---------------|---------------|-----------|------------| | Current
Deferred | \$
305,741 | \$
141,137 | \$
120 | \$ 446,998 | | Total | \$
305,741 | \$
141,137 | \$
120 | \$ 446,998 | The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) amended section 172(b)(l) to provide for a carryback of any net operating loss (NOL) arising in a taxable year beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2021, to each of the five taxable years preceding the taxable year in which the loss arises (carryback period). The Company utilized the prior NOL pursuant to the CARES Act. *As* required by the Income Taxes Topic of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification, deferred taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach in recognizing timing differences. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax of such timing differences. At December 31, 2021 there are no significant book to tax differences and thus no deferred taxes were recorded. #### **Note 7 - Litigation** In the normal course of business, the Company has possible exposure or may be a defendant in legal actions, claims and disputes arising out of its activities as a registered broker-dealer. While predicting the resolution of such matters is inherently difficult, the Company believes that there are no other actions or possible actions that would have a material impact on the financial statements. {12}------------------------------------------------ ### **Note 8** - **Net Capital Requirements** The Company is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. Rule 15c3-1 also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. At December 31, 2021, the Company had net capital of \$1,015,523 which was \$865,023 in excess of its required net capital of \$150,500. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 1.39 to 1. ## **Note 9** - **Pension Plan** During 2010, the Company adopted a 401 (k) plan covering eligible employees of the Company. All employees are eligible to contribute immediately upon employment. The Company did not make any contributions to the plan for the year ended December 31, 2021. #### **Note 10** - **Operating Lease** The Company entered into a six-year lease for office space under a non-cancellable operating lease, commencing September 1, 2020 and expiring November 30, 2026. The components of lease cost for the year ended December 31, 2021 are as follows: Operating lease cost \$110,992 The Company recognized a Right of Asset of \$445,154 for this lease as of December 31, 2021, and Lease Liability for \$473,499. At December 31, 2021 future minimum lease payments under this agreement were as follows: | 2022 | \$
85,087 | |-----------------------------------|--------------| | 2023 | 96,274 | | 2024 | 99,643 | | 2025 | 103,131 | | 2026 | 97,640 | | Total undiscounted lease payments | 481,775 | | Less imputed interest | (8,276) | | Total lease liability | \$ 473,499 | {13}------------------------------------------------ #### **Note 11 - Concentrations** Amounts held in financial institutions occasionally are in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and Securities Investor Protection Corporation limits. The Company deposits its cash in creditworthy financial institutions, and the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on those amounts. The Company is engaged in various trading and brokerage activities in which counter-parties primarily include broker-dealers, banks, and other financial institutions. In the event counter-parties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counter-party or issuer of the instrument. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counter-party. ## **Note 12 - PPP Loan Payable** On April 17, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds in the amount of \$173,555 under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"). The Company used the proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP and the loan was forgiven on May 26, 2021. On February 8, 2021, the Company received a second loan under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") in the amount of \$174,960. The PPP was established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") which provided for loans to qualifying businesses for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The loan principal and accrued interest are forgivable if the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, such as payroll, benefits, rent and utilities. The unforgiven portion of the PPP loan is payable over two years at an interest rate of 1 %. The Company used the proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP and anticipates that loan will be forgiven. ## **Note 13 - COVID-19** On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus("COVID-19"). In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve. Management has taken steps to implement social distancing and remote computing capabilities to protect its workforce and customers from COVID-19. Although the impact that the pandemic will ultimately have on the Company's financial condition and future results of operations is not yet know, management does not believe the Company will be materially negatively impacted. ## **Note 14 - Subsequent Events** The Company has reviewed transactions and events from its year-end December 31, 2021 through the date the financial statements were available to be issued for matters which require recording and/or disclosure in the financial statements. {14}------------------------------------------------ #### **Note 15 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements** The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") has established the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification" or "ASC") as the authoritative source of generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") recognized by the FASB. The principles embodied in the Codification are to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financials statements in accordance with GAAP in the United States. New accounting pronouncements are incorporated into the ASC through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). For the year ending December 31, 2021, various ASU's issued by the FASB were either newly issued or had effective implementation dates that would require their provisions to be reflected in the financial statements for the year then ended. The Company has either evaluated or is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of each of these pronouncements and the possible impact they may have on the Company's financial statements. In most cases, management has determined that the pronouncement has either limited or no application to the Company and, in all cases, implementation would not have a material impact on the financial statements taken as a whole. {15}------------------------------------------------ ## **Glendale Securities, Inc.
