(the "Company") was incorporated in the State of California on September 23, 2004. On October 28, 2005, the Company became a registered broker-dealer in securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to provide investment advisory services, and to sell mutual funds, and variable annuities. The Company became registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers ("NASD"). The NASO and NYSE Member Regulation consolidated in 2007 for form the Financial Industry Regulatory Agency ("FINRA"). The Company is headquartered in Carmel Valley, California. The Company is engaged in a singe line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of several classes of services, including investment advisory, fee-based financial planning and insurance. ### **Note 2** - **Significant Accounting Policies** **Basis of Presentation** -The Company conducts the following types of business as a securities brokerdealer, which comprises several classes of services, including: - Mutual fund retailer - Broker or dealer selling variable life insurance or annuities - Investment advisory services - Private placements of securities Under its membership agreement with FINRA and pursuant to Rule 15c3 (k) (2) (i), the Company conducts business on a fully disclosed basis and does not execute or clear securities transactions for customers. Accordingly, the Company is exempt from the requirement of Rule 15c3-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 pertaining to the possession or control of customer assets and reserve requirements. **Use of Estimates** - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Revenue Recognition** -Revenue from contracts with customers includes advisory fees and mutual fund, insurance and distribution income. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; how to allocate transaction prices {10}------------------------------------------------ ## **Revenue Recognition (continued)** where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on the 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. ## **Note 2** - **Significant Accounting Policies (continued)** Commissions on the sale of mutual funds, insurance and distribution fees are recorded on the trade date. 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. The company enters into arranagements with managed accounts or other pooled investment Vehicles (funds) to distribute shares to investors. The Company may receive distribution fees paid by the fund up front, over time, upon the investor's exit from the fund (that is, a contigent deferred sales charge), or as a combination thereof. The Company believes that its performance obligation is the sale of securities to investors and as such this is fulfilled on the trade date. Any fixed amount are recognized on the trade date and variable amounts are recongnized to the extent it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur once the uncertainty is resolved. For variable amounts, as the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the shares at future points in time as well as the length of time the investor remains in the fund, both of which are highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence, the Company does not believe that it can overcome this constraint until the market value of the fund and the investor activites are known, which are usually monthly or quarterly. Distribution fees recognized in the current period are primarily related to performance obligations that have been satisfied in prior period. **RIA Fees** - The Company provides investment advisory services on a daily basis. The Company believes the performance obligation for providing advisory services is satisfied over time because the customer is receiving and consuming the benefits as they are provided by the Company. Fee arrangements are based on a percentage applied to the customer's assets under management. Fees are received quarterly and are recognized as revenue at that time as they relate specifically to the services provided in that period, which are distinct from the services provided on other periods. **Income Taxes** - The Company has elected to be taxed under the provisions of subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code and comparable State of California statutes wherein the Company's taxable federal and state income is taxed directly to the shareholder. Additionally, the state of California imposes a 1-1/2% state franchise tax on the corporation's taxable income. The accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provides accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. {11}------------------------------------------------ ### **Income Taxes - Continued** Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all of the positions taken by the Company in its Federal and State organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. The Company is subject to examinations by U.S. Federal and State tax authorities from 2015 to the present, generally for three years after they are filed. **Depreciation** - Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis using estimated useful lives of five to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the economic useful life of the improvement or the term of the lease. **Cash and Cash Equivalents** - The Company has defined cash equivalents as highly liquid investments, with original maturities of less than three months that are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business. ## **Note 3** - **Net Capital Requirements** The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC rule 5c3-1) 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. Net capital and aggregate indebtedness change day by day, but on December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$86,024, which was \$81 ,024 in excess of its required net capital requirement of \$5,000. The Company's percentage of aggregate indebtedness of (\$4,914) to net capital was (5.71 %). ## **Note 4 -- Income Taxes** As discussed in the Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies the company is subject to a 1.5% tax on net income over the minimum tax of \$800. At December 31, 2024, the Company recorded the minimum franchise tax of \$800. ### **Note 5 - Lease** The company lease is now month to month effective July 1, 2023 at a monthly cost of \$800. The company also leases an outside office space on a month to month basis. The Company has elected not to apply the recognation requirements of Topic 843 relating to it's short term office lease and instead has elected to recognize the lease payments as a lease cost on a straight line basis over the lease term. The lease cost is \$10,647 relating to the office lease for the year ended December 31,2024. {12}------------------------------------------------ ### **Note 6** - **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 investment advisory, fee-based financial planning and life insurance. The Company has identified its President as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business, predominately in the forecasting process, to manage the Company. Additionaly, 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 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. ### **Note** 7 - **Commitments and Contingencies** The Company does not have any commitments or contingencies for year ending December 31, 2024. ### **Note 7** - **Subsequent Events** Management has reviewed the results of operations through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, and has determined that no adjustments are necessary to the amounts reported in the accompanying combined financial statements nor have any subsequent events occurred, the nature of which would require disclosure. ### **Note 8** - **Credit Losses** The Company follows ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"). ASC 326 impacts the impairment model for certain financial assets by requiring a current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology to estimate expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial asset. Under the accounting update, the Company has the ability to determine that there are no expected credit losses in certain circumstances (e.g., based on the credit quality of the customer). The Company had accounts receivable as of December 31, 2023 and 2024 of\$27,131 and \$37,621 respectively. {13}------------------------------------------------ ## **Plan B Investments, Inc.
