#### **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Member of Pacific Century Securities, LLC:

#### **Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Pacific Century Securities, LLC (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, the related statements of income, changes in member's equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, 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 Pacific Century Securities, LLC as of December 31, 2025, 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 of America.

#### **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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") 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.

#### **Auditor's Report on Supplemental Information**

The supplemental information contained in Schedules I and II have 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. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

We have served as Pacific Century Securities, LLC's auditor since 2022.

#### **NOTE (1) CORPORATE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS**

Pacific Century Securities, LLC. (the "Company") is a broker-dealer registered the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company is also a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and the Securities Investor Protection Corp. ("SIPC"). The Company's primary business is investment banking and investment advisory services. The Company is wholly owned by Pacific Century Capital, Inc ("Member").

### **NOTE (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Revenue Recognition:** The Company complies with and records its revenue in accordance with FASB ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Entities are required to apply the following steps when recognizing revenue under ASU 2014-09: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Investment banking fees and related commission expense are recorded at closing of the securities offering for which the Company is serving as investment banker.

Referral fees are recorded and earned upon the completion of IPO deals that were referred to lead underwriters.

Advisory fees are recorded as set forth in the engagement letter and upon the execution of a definitive agreement relating to a sale or acquisition transaction and the completion of certain activities as described in the engagement letter. Advisory fee revenue is recorded as performance obligations of the agreement are satisfied.

Commission revenue are recorded using the date that the Company fills the trade order by finding and contracting with a counterparty and confirms the trade with the customer. The Company believes that the performance obligation is satisfied on the trade date because that is when the underlying financial instrument or purchaser is identified, the pricing is agreed upon and the risks and rewards of ownership of the securities have been transferred to/from the customer.

Riskless principal revenue are recorded when riskless principal transactions done with customers and broker-dealers. Fees are transaction based, including trade execution services, are recognized at the point in time that the transaction is executed, i.e., the trade date. Riskless principal transactions occurred when the Company receives a buy order from a customer and the Company purchases the security from another person or entity to offset the sale to the customer. The riskless principal revenue is earned at the time the transaction is executed.

{9}------------------------------------------------

### **NOTE (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)**

**Revenue Recognition – Continued:** Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; whether revenue should be presented gross or net of certain costs; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events. In some circumstances, significant judgment is needed to determine the timing and measure of progress appropriate for revenue recognition under a specific contract. If a promised good or service is not distinct, the Company combines that good or service with other promised goods or services until it identifies a bundle of goods or services that is distinct. In some cases, this would result in the Company accounting for all the services promised in a contract as a single performance obligation and, if unfulfilled, amounts received from such contracts would be reflected as deferred revenues on the Statement of Financial Condition.

#### **Disaggregation of Revenue:**

| Investment Loss             | \$<br>(3,674) |
|-----------------------------|---------------|
| Other Fees                  | 720           |
| Credit Interest/ MM Rebates | 13,243        |
| Interest                    | 74,312        |
| Total Other Income          | \$<br>84,601  |

**Contract assets and liabilities:** Contract assets arise when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized prior to the Company's unconditional right to receive payment under a contract with a customer and are derecognized when either it becomes a receivable, or the cash is received. Contract assets are reported in the Statement of Financial Condition. As of December 31, 2024, contract asset balance was \$194,330 and as of December 31, 2025, contract asset balance was \$210,000.

Contract liabilities arise when customers remit contractual cash payments in advance of the Company satisfying its performance obligations under the contract and are derecognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied. As of December 31, 2024, contract liabilities balance was \$437,080 and as of December 31, 2025, contract liabilities balance was \$743,874.

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

### **NOTE (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)**

**Lease Accounting:** In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No.2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)," which supersedes previous leasing guidance in Topic 840. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize lease right-of use assets and lease liabilities on the statement of financial condition for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of income. The FASB has since issued additional related ASU amendments to clarify and improve certain aspects of the guidance and implementation of Topic 842. The Company recognizes lease expense on a straight-line basis within the expense section of the statement of income. See "Note 4, Commitments and Contingencies" for additional disclosure regarding the Company's leases.

**Estimates:** The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain estimates by management in determining the entity's assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses.

**Income Taxes:** The Company is organized as a Limited Liability Company. All income, losses, and tax credits flow through and are taxed in the income tax returns of its member.

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FASB ASC 740-10). Under this Interpretation, the Company is required to evaluate each of its tax positions to determine if they are more likely than not to be sustained if the taxing authority examines the respective position. A tax position includes an entity's status, including its status as a pass-through entity, and the decision not to file a tax return. The Company has evaluated each of its tax positions and has determined that no provision or liability for income taxes is necessary.

The Company, which files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions as a disregarded entity in the parent's tax return, is no longer subject to U.S. Federal income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2022.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents:** The Company considers all cash and money market instruments with a maturity of 90 days or less to be cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2025, Cash in excess of federally insured limits was \$939,869.

The Company maintains its demand deposits in high credit quality financial institutions. Balances at times may exceed federally insured limits.

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

### **NOTE (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)**

**Accounts Receivable:** Accounts receivable are non-interest-bearing uncollateralized obligations receivable in accordance with the terms, which are net 30.

The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance for credit losses that reflects management's best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Management individually reviews all delinquent accounts receivable balances and based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. Generally, customer receivables are believed to be fully collectible, however, at December 31, 2025, allowances for credit losses was \$ -0-.

**Evaluation of Subsequent Events:** Subsequent events were evaluated through March 31, 2026, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

### **NOTE (3) NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENT**

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (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. At December 31, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$1,161,803 which was \$1,020,414 in excess of its required net capital of \$141,389 and its ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 1.83 to 1.00.

### **NOTE (4) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

During 2025, the Company entered into a new lease agreement for office space. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 842 Leases ("ASC 842"), the Company recognized a right of use asset ("ROU asset") and a corresponding lease liability based on the present value of then existing operating lease obligation of \$499,634 on the Company's Statement of Financial Condition. As of December 31, 2025, operating lease ROU assets were \$432,836 and operating lease liabilities were \$437,952.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For determining the present value of lease payments, we use the discount rate implicit in the lease when readily determinable. As the Company's lease does not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments that approximates the rate of interest we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term.

The ROU asset measurement was calculated using the fixed scheduled rent payments, which included annual increase specified in the lease agreement, up to the maturity date of July 2028.

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

### **NOTE (4) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)**

The following summarizes the line items in the balance sheet which include amounts for operating leases as of December 31, 2025:

| Operating cash flows from the operating leases  | \$67,620 |
|-------------------------------------------------|----------|
| Weighted-average remaining lease term (months): | 31       |
| Weighted-average discount rate:                 | 3%       |

The maturity of the lease liability on an undiscounted cash flow basis and a reconciliation to the operating lease liability recognized on the Statement of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2025:

| 2026     | \$<br>169,032 |
|----------|---------------|
| 2027     | 180,334       |
| 2028     | 106,713       |
|          | 456,079       |
| Less:    |               |
| Interest | (18,127)      |
|          | \$<br>437,952 |

### **NOTE (5) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT**

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which priorities 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: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities 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.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability developed using estimates and assumptions which reflect those that market participants would use. (The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company's own data.)

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

### **NOTE (5) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (CONTINUED)**

The following table presents the Company's fair value hierarchy for securities owned included within the Company's clearing deposit as of December 31, 2025:

|                   | Fair Value<br>Measurements<br>December 31,<br>2025 | Level 1<br>Valuation | Level 2<br>Valuation | Level 3<br>Valuation |
|-------------------|----------------------------------------------------|----------------------|----------------------|----------------------|
| Money Market Fund | \$<br>1,423,600                                    | \$<br>1,423,600      | \$<br>-              | \$<br>-              |
| Total             | \$<br>1,423,600                                    | \$ 1,423,600         | \$<br>-              | \$<br>-              |

### **NOTE (6) SEGEMENT REPORTING**

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of several classes of services, including underwriting securities, investment banking and providing referrals. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business, predominantly in the forecasting process, to manage the Company. Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital (see Note 3), which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or pay distributions. The Company's operations constitutes a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using information of the Company as a whole. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

### **NOTE (7) CONTINGENT LIABILITIES**

The Company is involved in a legal matter arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on currently available information and consultation with legal counsel, management has determined that a loss related to this matter is probable.

Accordingly, the Company has recorded an accrual of \$500,000 in the accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2025. However, due to uncertainties inherent in the matter, management is unable to reasonably estimate the total potential loss or range of loss beyond the amount accrued. As such, the ultimate outcome could differ materially from the amount recorded.

#### **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Member of Pacific Century Securities, LLC:

We have reviewed management's statements, included in the accompanying Exemption Report, in which (1) Pacific Century Securities, LLC identified the following provision of 17 C.F.R. §15c3- 3(k) under which Pacific Century Securities, LLC claimed the following exemption from 17 C.F.R. §240.15c3-3: (k)(2)(ii) and (2) Pacific Century Securities, LLC stated that Pacific Century Securities, LLC met the identified exemption provisions throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

The Company is also filing this Exemption Report because the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 are limited to (1) proprietary trading, (2) investment banking and (3) referral fees. In addition, the Company did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers; did not carry accounts of or for customers; and did not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3) throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception.

The Company's management is responsible for compliance with the exemption provisions and its statements and the provisions contemplated by Footnote 74 of SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 and related SEC Staff Frequently Asked Questions and its statements.

Our review was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included inquiries and other required procedures to obtain evidence about the Company's compliance with the exemption provisions. A review is substantially less in scope than an examination, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion on management's statements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to management's statements referred to above for them to be fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the provisions set forth in paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240.17a-5, and related SEC Staff Frequently Asked Questions.
