Nature of Operations Jane Street Options, LLC (the "Company"), is a Delaware limited liability company registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of JSOH, LLC (the "Parent"), which is in turn a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jane Street Group, LLC (the "Ultimate Parent"). The Company is a member of various exchanges and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc ("FINRA"), who has served as its Designated Examining Authority since July 2025, replacing CBOE Exchange, Inc. The Company trades for its own account and is a market-maker on certain exchanges. ### 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ### Basis of Presentation This financial statement has been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S."). ### Segment Reporting The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a broker-dealer, which primarily involves executing principal transactions (see Note 1). The Company has identified its President as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business and determine how to allocate resources. Additionally, the CODM uses member's equity, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or withdraw capital. The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using the Company's information as a whole. The measure of segment assets is equal to the total assets shown on the Statement of Financial Condition. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described here within the summary of significant accounting policies. ### Use of Estimates The preparation of this financial statement 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 this financial statement. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates. {5}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2025 ### Cash Cash includes amounts maintained in bank accounts. The Company at times may maintain cash in deposit accounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts. ## Securities and Other Financial Instruments Owned and Securities and Other Financial Instruments Sold, Not Yet Purchased, at Fair Value Equity securities are either traded on national securities exchanges or over the counter ("OTC"), and are generally valued at the last reported sales price for the identical instrument at the date of valuation. In certain cases, where the Company believes the last reported sales price is not the best indication of fair value, the Company adjusts its estimate of fair value to an alternate source. Options are either valued at the mid of the bid and ask prices published by exchanges, or using a thirdparty pricing source at the date of valuation. Futures contracts are included in Due from broker and are generally valued at the official settlement price at the date of valuation Derivative assets and liabilities, including options, are net by counterparty when a master netting arrangement exists and a legally enforceable right of offset exists. Any related cash collateral under the same master netting arrangement is also presented net against derivative assets and liabilities. All other securities included in Securities and other financial instruments owned, at fair value and Securities and other financial instruments sold, not yet purchased, at fair value are net by CUSIP, by each clearing broker. In carrying out its valuation responsibilities, the Company has considered the availability of external market information to provide justification and rationale for its fair value estimates. ### Revenue Recognition The Company records transactions and the related revenues and expenses on a trade date basis. All resulting realized and unrealized gains and losses are reflected in Member's equity. Interest income and interest expense are recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income on equities owned and dividend expense on equities sold, not yet purchased are recorded on the ex-dividend date. {6}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2025 ### Income Taxes The Company is a single member limited liability company and a disregarded entity for U.S. tax purposes; therefore, no provision has been made in the accompanying financial statement for U.S. federal, state, or city income taxes. Tax laws are complex, and subject to different interpretations by the taxpayer and taxing authorities. Significant judgment is required when evaluating tax positions and related uncertainties. Future events such as changes in tax legislation could require a provision for income taxes. Any such changes could significantly affect the amounts reported in Member's equity. ### Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted In March 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-01, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This ASU provides clarification and illustrative examples on how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award should be accounted for as a share-based payment arrangement. This pronouncement is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and was adopted on January 1, 2025. The Company evaluated the effect of this pronouncement on its financial statement and determined that there is no impact. ### Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326). This ASU provides a practical expedient that allows entities to assume current economic conditions will persist through the reasonable and supportable forecast period when estimating credit losses on current accounts receivable and contract assets. This pronouncement is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on its financial statement. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU adds a new derivative accounting scope exception for certain non-exchange traded contracts with underlyings based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties. In addition, this ASU clarifies that share-based noncash consideration from a customer is subject to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, until the entity's right to receive the consideration is unconditional. This pronouncement is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company is evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on its financial statement. {7}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ### December 31, 2025 ## 3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), provides a single definition of fair value together with a framework for measurement, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value techniques to measure assets and liabilities. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not any specific measurement, and sets out a fair value hierarchy with the highest priority being quoted prices in active markets. Under ASC 820, fair value measurements are disclosed by level in that hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1: Includes inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities the Company has the ability to access. Level 2: Includes inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3: Includes significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability and relies on management's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the company's own data. The Company continually refines its process for estimating and measuring the fair value of securities and other financial instruments in order to achieve the most accurate estimate of fair value. Refinements are focused on enhancing the use of observable market information. {8}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ### December 31, 2025 The following tables set forth the Company's securities and other financial instruments by level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2025: | | Fair Value Hierarchy | | | | | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------|---------------|-------|------------------|------------------| | (in thousands) | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | Total | | Securities and other financial instruments owned: | | | | | | | Equities | ಲ್ಲಿಕ | 17,727,731 | S | 844 | ದಿ

Derivative Financial Instruments The Company's activities may include the purchase and sale of options and futures. These contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statement of Financial Condition, in part because of the additional complexity and potential for leverage. These financial instruments are used for trading purposes and for managing risks associated with the portfolio of securities. All derivative positions are reported in the accompanying Statement of Financial Condition at fair value and any change in value is reflected in Member's equity. {9}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ### December 31, 2025 Management believes that risks associated with derivatives are minimized through its hedging strategies. However, the use of derivative financial instruments involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of the financial instruments, interest rates and the underlying assets. Derivatives may also create credit risk, as well as legal, operational, and other risks beyond those associated with the direct purchase or sale of the underlying instruments to which their values are related. The Company may purchase and sell options on national exchanges. Options may be cash settled, settled by physical delivery or by entering into a closing transaction. In entering into a closing purchase transaction, the Company may be subject to the risk of loss to the extent that the premium paid for entering into such closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was written. In addition, the correlation between option prices and the prices of underlying financial instruments may be imperfect and the market for any particular option may be illiquid at a particular time. The seller ("writer") of a call option which is covered (e.g., the writer has a long position in the underlying financial instrument) assumes the risk of a decline in the market price of the underlying financial instrument below the value of the underlying financial instrument less the premium received, and gives up the opportunity for gain on the underlying financial instrument above the exercise price of the option. The writer of an uncovered call option assumes the risk of a theoretically unlimited increase in the market price of the underlying financial instrument above the exercise price of the option. The buyer of a call option assumes the risk of losing its entire investment in the call option. If the buyer of the call sells short the underlying financial instrument, the loss on the call will be offset, in whole or in part, by any gain on the short sale of the underlying financial instrument. The writer of a put option which is covered (e.g., the writer has a short position in the underlying financial instrument) assumes the risk of an increase in the market price of the underlying financial instrument above the sales price (in establishing the short position) of the underlying financial instrument, plus the premium received, and gives up the opportunity for gain on the underlying financial instrument below the exercise price of the option. The writer of an uncovered put option assumes the risk of a decline in the market price of the underlying financial instrument below the exercise price of the option. The buyer of a put option assumes the risk of losing its entire investment in the put option. If the buyer of the put holds the underlying financial instrument, the loss on the put will be offset in whole or in part by any gain on the underlying financial instrument. Additionally, the Company trades futures contracts. Substantially all trading in futures has as its basis a contract to purchase or sell a specified quantity of a particular asset for delivery at a specified time, although certain financial instruments, such as market index futures contracts, may be settled only in cash {10}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ### December 31, 2025 based on the value of the underlying composite index. Futures trading involves trading in contracts for future delivery of standardized, rather than specific, lots of particular assets. Futures prices are highly volatile. Price movements for the futures contracts which the Company may trade are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, government, trade, fiscal, and economic events, and changes in interest rates. Governments from time to time intervene, directly and by regulation, in certain markets, often with the intent to influence prices directly.

Due From Broker and Concentration of Credit Risk The clearing and depository operations for the Company's securities transactions are provided by a single broker. The amounts presented in Due from broker are composed of amounts owed to or from the broker. Amounts owed to and from the broker include cash, net amounts payable and receivable for securities transactions that have not yet settled, unrealized appreciation from certain derivative financial instruments, and foreign currency translation. Amounts owed to and from the broker have been offset where the right of offset exists. Substantially all securities held at the broker serve as collateral for the amounts due to the broker. Subject to the clearing agreement between the Company and the clearing broker has the right to sell or repledge this collateral. Additionally, securities and other financial instruments owned and securities and other financial instruments sold, not yet purchased, are generally subject to margin requirements. {12}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ## December 31, 2025 In the course of its normal trading activities, the Company is a party to financial instruments that involve, to indeterminable degrees, market and other risks in excess of that presented in the Statement of Financial Condition (see Note 4). ### 6. Intercompany and Related Party Transactions ### Expense Allocation and Other Payments The Ultimate Parent pays for and allocates payroll and certain operating expenses on behalf of the Company. The Company may also pay for various expenses on behalf of the Ultimate Parent. Any unsettled amounts between the Company and the Ultimate Parent are included within Due to Jane Street Group, LLC. Additionally, certain affiliates may pay for various operating expenses on behalf of the Company, and the Company may pay for various expenses on behalf of certain affiliates. The amounts reflected as Due to affiliates include the unpaid portion of these expenses. ### Trading Activity The Company is charged commissions by an affiliate for that affiliate's role as executing broker. Additionally, this affiliate may make an incentive payment to the Company for acting as counterparty to such trades. The amount reflected as Due to affiliates includes any unsettled amounts related to this activity. Additionally, the Company is charged by an affiliate for the affiliate's role in the execution of certain transactions. The amount reflected as Due to affiliates includes any unsettled amounts related to this activity. In addition to the foregoing, the Company may execute intercompany securities transactions with affiliates, at fair value. ### Other An Intercompany Loan Agreement (the "Parent Loan") between the Parent and the Company defined specific terms and conditions under which the Parent may have lent the Company sums of money on a revolving basis. Effective November 13, 2025 the Parent Loan was terminated and the Company satisfied all obligations under its Parent Loan with the Parent, including the repayment of the total amount borrowed and all accrued interest. {13}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ### December 31, 2025 During the year ended December 31, 2025 the Company and the Ultimate Parent entered into an Intercompany Loan Agreement (the "Ultimate Parent Loan"). The Ultimate Parent Loan matures on December 31, 2027 and defines specific terms and conditions under which the Ultimate Parent may lend the Company sums of money on a revolving basis. The Ultimate Parent Loan carries interest at a commercial rate determined quarterly. As of December 31, 2025, the total outstanding balance on the Ultimate Parent Loan is \$862 million and this amount is included within Due to Jane Street Group, LLC. Upon direction from its Operating Committee, units of the Ultimate Parent are issued to certain members, including those that provide services to the Company. These units are a means of distributing the residual profit and loss of the Ultimate Parent. All of these units are issued at the Ultimate Parent level. The Ultimate Parent accounts for equity units awarded to certain members who provide services to the Company as distributions from equity. ### 7. Regulatory Requirements The Company is a market-maker operating under the exemptive provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c3-1(b)(1), which exempts it from net capital requirements. The Company's equity withdrawals are subject to certain provisions of FINRA and other regulatory bodies. ## 8. Other Risks Related to Trading Activities Unexpected volatility or illiquidity in the markets in which the Company directly holds positions could impair its ability to carry out its business and could cause losses to be incurred. Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by increases or decreases in the fair value of financial instruments. The Company is a registered market-maker may be called upon to make markets and provide liquidity at times of market stress. Because of these obligations, the Company's risk at a time of large, volatile moves may be greater than that suggested by the positions in the Company's financial statement Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of fixed income or rate sensitive financial instruments will increase or decrease of changes in interest rates. Generally the value of these instruments will change inversely with changes in interest rates. As interest rates rise, the fair value of these instruments tends to decrease. Conversely, as interest rates fall, the fair value of these instruments tends to increase. This risk is generally greater for long-term securities than for short-term securities. {14}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition ### December 31, 2025 Credit risk represents the potential loss that would occur if counterparties fail to perform payment obligations. The Company is subject to credit risk to the extent a counterparty is unable to fulfill contractual obligations. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to raise funds to fulfill its commitments, including the inability to sell financial instruments quickly or at close to fair value. Short selling, or the sale of securities not owned by the Company, exposes the Company to the risk of loss in an amount greater than the initial investment, and such losses can increase rapidly and in the case of equities, without effective limit. There is the risk that the securities borrowed by the Company in connection with a short sale would need to be returned to the securities lender on short notice. If such request for return of securities occurs at a time when other of the subject security are receiving similar requests, a short squeeze can occur, wherein the Company might be compelled, at the most disadvantageous time, to replace borrowed securities previously sold short with purchases on the open market, possibly at prices significantly in excess of the proceeds received earlier. Borrowings from securities brokers and dealers are typically secured by the Company's securities and other assets. Under certain circumstances, such a broker-dealer may demand an increase in the collateral that secures the Company's obligations and if the Company is unable to provide additional collateral, the broker-dealer could liquidate assets held in the account to satisfy the Company's obligations to the brokerdealer. Liquidation in that manner could have adverse consequences. In addition, the amount of the Company's borrowings and the interest rates on those borrowings, which will fluctuate, could have a significant effect on the Company's profitability. While the use of certain forms of leverage, which may include margin borrowing or derivative instruments, can substantially improve the return on invested capital, such use may also increase the adverse impact to which the portfolio of the Company may be subject. Currencies, securities and commodity interests, and the issuers of securities and commodity interests are affected by, among other things: changing supply and demand, interest rates, merger activities, governmental laws, regulations and enforcement activities, trade, fiscal and monetary programs and policies, and national and international political and economic developments. The effect of such factors on exchange rates, interest rates, the prices of securities and commodity interests in general, or a particular currency, security or commodity interest, is difficult to predict. In addition, there is unpredictability as to changes in general economic conditions, which may affect the profitability of the Company's strategy. The Company trades exchange traded products ("ETPs"). ETPs may have underlying investment strategy risks similar to investing in commodities, bonds, real estate, international markets, currencies or cryptocurrencies, emerging growth companies, or specific sectors. {15}------------------------------------------------ ## Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2025 The Company may effect transactions in the OTC or interdealer markets. The participants in such markets are typically not subject to the same stringent level of credit evaluation as are members of exchange based markets. This exposes the Company to the risk that a counterparty will not settle a transaction in accordance with its terms and conditions because of a dispute over the contract or because of a credit or liquidity problem, thus causing the Company to suffer a loss. In addition, in the case of a default, the Company could become subject to adverse market movements while replacement transactions are executed. Such counterparty risk is accentuated for contracts with longer maturities where events may intervene to prevent settlement, or where the Company has concentrated its transactions with a single or small group of counterparties. The Company is not restricted from dealing with any particular counterparty or from concentrating any or all of its transactions with one counterparty. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of counterparties. However, the ability of the Company to transact business with any one, or a number of, counterparties may increase the potential for losses by the Company. ### 9. Subsequent Events During 2026, the Ultimate Parent Loan decreased to an outstanding balance of \$171 million. The Company has evaluated all events through the date this financial statement was issued and determined no additional events or transactions required recognition or disclosure.
