## REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors of Goodbody Securities Incorporated

## **Opinion on the Financial Statement**

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of Goodbody Securities Incorporated (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Goodbody Securities Incorporated as of December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### **Basis for Opinion**

This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statement 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 statement is 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 statement, 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.

We have served as Goodbody Securities Incorporated's auditor since 2012.

#### **Notes to Financial Statements December 31st, 2025**

## **1. General Information and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

#### (a) The **Company**

Goodbody Securities Incorporated (the "Company") was incorporated on 4 th March, 2005. On 27th January 2023 FINRA approved a proposed changed in the Company's ownership structure, whereby following a reorganisation of the AIB Group structure that GBS would become the direct owner of the Company. The reorganization was executed on 1 March 2023 and does not result in any changes to the Firm's existing business activities and there is no capital or financial impact.

As of December 31st, 2025, the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodbody Stockbrokers UC ("GBS"). GBS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Allied Irish Banks p.l.c.

The Company is a U.S. registered broker-dealer with an office in Dublin, Ireland. GSI trades exclusively in non-US equity securities with institutional investors. The company also distributes third-party research created by Goodbody Stockbrokers ("GBS"), its Irish affiliate, to US investors.

On 24th January, 2006 the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) approved the application of Goodbody Securities Incorporated for membership of FINRA and as such the Company is a registered broker dealer in securities under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The Company operates under the provisions of paragraph (k)(2)(i) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, accordingly, is exempt from the remaining provisions of that rule.

#### (b) **Basis of Preparation**

These Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require 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.

### **(c) Revenue Recognition**

Service income is earned from an agreement with GBS whereby the Company acts as an introducing intermediary broker-dealer in transactions between GBS and its US counterparties. The Company believes the performance obllgation for providing this service is satisfied on a monthly basis for as long as the Company remains a registered broker-dealer in good standing.

At the request of any of its major US institutional customers or agents of its major US institutional customers, GBS may invoice the customer or agent for the distribution of its research reports. Any payments that are received by GBS will be at the discretion of the client. In the event that payments are received, GBS will pay 10% of these receipts to GSI to the extent that GSI shall earn a minimum annual fee of \$20,000 for facilitating the distribution of research reports. All GBS payments to GSl will be made quarterly in arrears. .

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue recognition is determined through the following steps: (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 contrac� and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Revenue from contracts with customers includes service and fee income from service arrangement. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgement is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; when to recognize revenue based on the appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events.

## **1. General Information and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)**

### **(d) Income Taxes**

**Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method . Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.** 

## **(e) Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities**

**All of the Company's financial assets and liabilities are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value. Such assets and liabilities include cash, accounts receivable customer, fail to receive and accrued expenses.** 

#### **2. Income Taxes**

**Provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31** st , **2025, includes the following amounts (the Company reports under the accrual method for tax purposes):** 

| Current Taxes                    | \$      |
|----------------------------------|---------|
| Federal                          | 1 7,539 |
| Rep Of I re land                 | 4,748   |
| New York City                    | 25      |
| New York State                   | 25      |
| Total Current                    | 22,337  |
| Deferred Tax                     | 0       |
| Total provision for income taxes | 22,337  |

**The Company's effective income tax rate is higher than what would be expected if the federal statutory rate were applied to income before income taxes primarily because of certain expenses for financial reporting purposes that are not deductible for tax purposes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carryi ng amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.** 

### **3. Cash and Cash equivalents**

**The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of 3 months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.**

The Company took immediate action and redeemed the deposit to an on demand account to regularise the situation and return the Company to the significant net capital excess of c \$2.2m. Factoring in this adjustment to the net capital computation as at December 31st, 2025, the Company had net capital, as d efined by the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1, of \$135,743 which was \$114,257 lower that its required net capital of \$250,000.

# **6. Commitments and Contingencies**

There were no commitments or contingen cies at the year end.

# **7. Risk and Uncertainties**

### **Customer Transactions**

In the normal course of business, the Company effects transactions on behalf of customers on delivery versus payment basis. If these transactions do not settle due to failure to perform by either the customer or the counterparty, the Company may be obligated to discharge the obligation of the nonperforming party and, as a result, may incur a loss if the market value of the securities is different from the contract amounts. The risk of loss to the Company is normally limited to differences in market values of the securities compared to their contract amounts. At December 31st , 2025, there were no failed trades.

#### **Off-Balance Sheet Risk**

In the normal course of business, the Company's customer activities involve the execution, settlement, and financing of various customer securities transactions. These activities may expose the Company to off-balance-sheet risk in the event the customer or other broker is unable to fulfil its contracted obligations and the Company has to purchase or sell the financial instrument underlying the contract at a loss.

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

**The Company acts as an agent for institutional customers in the purchase and sale of foreign securities. The Company executes and clears all of these foreign trades through a contractually** 

**obligated foreign affiliate. These trades are settled on a basis of either del ivery or receipt versus payment. In the normal course of business, the Company's activities involve the execution and** 

**settlement of various customer securities transactions. These activities may expose the Company to off-balance sheet risk in the event a cou nterparty is unable to fulfil its contracted obligations and the Company has to purchase or sell the financial instrument underlying the contract at a loss. The Company monitors the credit standing of all counterparties with which it conducts business. All open transactions at December 3 1** st **, 2025 settled with no resultant loss being incurred by the Company.** 

### **Concentration of Credit Risk**

**Cash consists of cash deposits held in an accou nt at a financial institution and therefore are subject to credit risk at the financial institution. The amount on deposit at this institution exceeds the maximum balance insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). However, the Company has not experienced any losses in such account and continually monitors the credit risk of financial institutions where funds are held.** 

#### **8. Segment 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 where the Company acts as an introducing intermediary broker-dealer in transactions between GBS and its US counterparties as well as distributing independent third-party research produced by GBS to the Company's US institutional clients. The Company has identified its CEO as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business and 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, as 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 pol icies. The company derived 1 00 percent of its total revenues from a single external customer in 2025.** 

**The Statement of Operations reflects the segment revenues and significant expenses for the year ended December 31** st **, 2025.** 

#### **9. Subsequent Events**

**The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring after the statement of financial condition date December 3 1 st , 2025, through to the date these financial statements were issued.** 

**As set out in the Net Capital note 4 following consultation with FINRA on 1 8th February 2026 it was determined that a Time Deposit held by the Company with an offshore credit institution in the amount of \$2, 353,992 did not meet the criteria to be deemed as eligible capital, under rule 1 5c3- 1 (c)(2)(iv)(E)/061 for Offshore Demand Deposits and Time Deposits, given the funds were not accessible on demand under the Terms and Conditions with this credit institution. The Company took immediate action and redeemed the deposit to an on-demand account to regularise the situation and return the Company to the significant net capital excess of c \$2.2m as of 1 7th February, 2026.** 

**The Company has determined that no other subsequent events have occurred which would require disclosure or adjustment to the financial statements.**
