#### **Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

Board of Directors and Member Tora Trading Services, LLC

#### *Opinion on the Financial Statements*

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Tora Trading Services, LLC (the Company) as of December 31, 2025, the related statements of income, changes in member's 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, 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 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 financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

#### *Supplemental Information*

The supplemental information included in the Computation of Net Capital Under Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission and CFTC Regulation 1.17, and the Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements and Information for Possession or Control Requirements Pursuant to Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (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 CFR §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 the Company's auditor since 2024.

## **TORA TRADING SERVICES, LLC**

#### **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025**

#### **1. Organization**

Tora Trading Services, LLC (the "Company") is organized as a Delaware limited liability company and maintains offices in the United States. The Company is a provider of multi-asset execution and trade order management systems and outsourced trading services for both buy-side and sell-side institutional investors. The Company is a securities broker dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and National Futures Association ("NFA"). The Company operates as an introducing broker dealer and does not hold funds or securities for customers, and does not owe any money or securities to customers.

The Company is wholly owned by Tora Trading Services Limited, a Cayman Islands company (the "Member"). The Member is a wholly owned subsidiary of Refinitiv US LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Parent"), which is an indirect subsidiary of London Stock Exchange Group PLC ("the "Ultimate Parent" or "LSEG"). The Company is headquartered in New York and maintains office in California.

#### **Single Reportable Segment**

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, operating as a provider of multi-asset execution and trade order management, and outsourced trading services, through its electronic platform. The Company has identified its Managing Principal 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 4), 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 dividends. The Company's operations constitute 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.

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

**Basis of Presentation** — The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The Company's results of operations and financial position could differ significantly from the financial position and results that would have been achieved if the Company was not owned by the Member, the Parent, and the Ultimate Parent.

**Use of Estimates** — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Software Commissions —** The Company derives revenue from software licensing, which includes fees generated when end users execute transactions utilizing its software through customers (broker dealers). Software license fees are billed and paid monthly, quarterly, or annually.

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

**Execution Commissions —** The Company also derives revenue from commissions which are earned when the Company executes trades as a broker for end users.

Software commissions and execution commissions are recognized at a point in time, on a trade date basis, which is when the Company's performance obligations have been substantially completed and the transaction price is determinable.

It is the Company's judgment that the geographical location and contracts of the end users do not affect the nature, timing, or certainty of revenue or cash flow, and therefore do not warrant disaggregation.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents** — The Company considers all demand deposits held in banks and certain highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at acquisition, other than those held for sale in the ordinary course of business, to be cash equivalents. The Company holds cash in financial institutions in excess of FDIC insured limits. The Company periodically reviews the financial condition of the institutions and assesses the credit risk. At December 31, 2025, the Company did not hold cash equivalents.

**Accounts Receivable – trade** — The Company records receivables when it invoices customers for software commissions and execution commissions.

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.
