Organization FTP Securities LLC (the "Company") was organized as a limited liability company in the state of Delaware on June 5, 2003. The Company is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company is wholly owned by Financial Technology Partners LP ("Member") and operates in San Francisco, New York, and Miami (through August 2025). The Company engages in corporate merger and acquisition financial advisory services, underwriting, and private placements of securities, on a best efforts basis, where the funds are payable to the issuer or its agent and not to the Company. The Company does not carry accounts of or for customers and does not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers. The Company also provides equity research services. The Company relies on its Member for administrative support and a majority of the Company's expenses are direct and indirect allocations from the Member. See Note 5. #### 2. Significant Accounting Policies #### Basis of Accounting The financial statement has been prepared on the accrual basis in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). #### Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all demand deposits held in banks and certain highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, other than those held for sale in the ordinary course of business, to be cash equivalents. \$56,572,772 of money market funds are included as cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025. #### Foreign Currency All transactions denominated in currencies other than USD are remeasured using exchange rates at the transaction dates. Monetary items are translated at the balance sheet date. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held nominal currencies that were not USD. #### Accounts Receivable Accounts Receivable includes receivables related to services provided in contracts with customers. The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment. The Company records Accounts Receivable, net of any allowance for credit losses, when relevant revenue recognition criteria has been achieved and payment is conditioned on the passage of time. The Company accounts for estimated credit losses on financial assets measured at an amortized cost basis in accordance with FASB ASC 326-20, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. FASB ASC 326-20 requires the Company to estimate the expected credit losses over the life of its financial assets as of the reporting date based on the relevant information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The provisions of this standard were adopted using a method to estimate the allowance for credit losses that considered both the aging of accounts receivable and a projected loss rate of receivables. Management has determined that long-term forecasted information is not relevant to our accounts receivable, which are primarily short-term. We maintain a quarterly allowance review process to consider current factors that would require an adjustment to the credit loss allowance. Accounts receivable and the related allowance for credit losses are written off when it becomes remote that payment for services will be received. #### Investments in Securities The Company may receive securities as payment on investment banking contracts. {7}------------------------------------------------ #### 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued) #### Contract Balances Costs to fulfill contracts consist of out-of-pocket expenses that are part of performing private placement and strategic advisory services. The Company is generally contractually entitled to reimbursement of these out-ofpocket expenses by the clients. Costs to fulfill a contract are evaluated under the criteria for capitalization on a contract-by-contract basis. If qualified, such costs are capitalized on the Statement of Financial Condition as capitalized reimbursable expenses. # Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statement in accordance 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 at the date of the financial statement. Actual results could differ from those estimates and may have an impact on future periods. #### Fair Value of Investments and Financial Instruments Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and liabilities that represent financial instruments (none of which are held for trading purposes) approximate the carrying values of such amounts. The Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows: - Level 1 Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date; - Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active; - Level 3 Unobservable inputs. Under the Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company bases its fair value on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between participants at the measurement date. 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. Fair value measurements for assets and liabilities where there exists limited or no observable market data and, therefore, are based primarily upon management's own estimates, are often calculated based on current pricing policy, the economic and competitive environment the characteristics of the asset or liability and other such factors. Therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates of future cash flows, that could significantly affect the results of current or future value. In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs a detailed analysis of its assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2025, there were no assets or liabilities for which the fair value measurement was based on significant unobservable inputs. {8}------------------------------------------------ #### 2.

Net Capital Requirements The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's uniform net capital rule (Rule 15c3-1) which requires the Company to maintain a minimum net capital equal to or greater than \$100,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, whichever is greater, and to maintain a ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital not exceeding 15 to 1, both as defined. As of December 31, 2025, the Company's net capital was \$47,009,875, which exceeded the minimum capital requirement of \$151,618 by \$46,858,257. #### 5. Related Party Transactions Under an office and administrative services agreement, Member provides office space and administrative services to the Company. The Company pays its proportional share of office rent, compensation and other overhead costs Member incurred in providing administrative services. Certain employees of Member directly participate in investment banking activities of the Company. The Company reimburses Member for compensation and benefits of those employees. The Company and Member entered into a tri-party advisory agreement with an affiliate in the United Kingdom. Under the agreement, the affiliate assists in executing on the arrangement of capital transactions such as private placements, mergers and acquisitions for clients. Through Member, the Company pays a fee to the affiliate on a cost-plus basis. Additionally, the Company collects and reimburses Member for expenses incurred by Member in serving clients. An affiliated person of the Member is on the Board of Directors of one or more customers from which the Company earned advisory fees. {9}------------------------------------------------ #### 5. Related Party Transactions (continued) The Company had due from affiliates of \$6,860,405 as of December 31, 2025 primarily due to advance payments of allocated expenses to Member. The Company is not party to a lease as of December 31, 2025. As mentioned above, the Company is party to an office and administrative services agreement with Member resulting in the allocation of certain occupancy expenses to the Company. Such agreement with Member is renewed annually. #### 6. Risk Concentration The Company holds cash deposits with two high quality financial institutions, which at times during the year may have exceeded the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. The Company has not had any losses to date. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 68% of net client receivables were from four customers. #### 7. Litigation The Company in the ordinary course of its business is subject from time to time to various threatened or filed legal actions. Although the amount of ultimate exposure cannot be determined, the Company accrues for losses that management considers probable. As of December 31, 2025, no amount was accrued. #### 8. Subsequent Events The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 25, 2026, the date the financial statement was issued. There were no other material subsequent events requiring disclosure through the evaluation date. Source: SEC EDGAR via Adviser Search (https://search.stillhousedata.com).
