The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the National Futures Association (NFA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corp. (SIPC).

The Company is engaged in the business of providing business and financial consulting and referral transactions. The Company is not required to have any arrangement with a clearing broker.

#### 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

#### Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount reported on the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates its fair value.

#### Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent amounts due from hedge funds on referral transactions. Management has determined that no allowance for credit losses is necessary at December 31, 2025.

#### Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability company taxed as a single member LLC and therefore, the accompanying financial statements do not include any provision for federal or state income taxes. The member is responsible for his share of the Company's income or loss.

#### Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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.

#### Leases

In accordance with ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842), the Company recognizes leases on the balance sheet with lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use assets based on the present value of lease payments. The Company had not entered into any leases subject to this standard as of December 31, 2025.

#### Current Expected Credit Losses

In accordance with (ASU) 2016-13 – Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") the Company uses the expected loss model to measure impairment losses for trade and other receivables. The Company has no reserve for expected credit losses as of December 31, 2025.

#### 3. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The Company enters into fee agreements with various hedge funds. The Company earns fees by referring investors to the hedge funds. The Company may receive fees paid by the fund upfront or over time. The Company believes its performance obligation is the referral of investors which is fulfilled when the investor purchases an interest in a fund (trade date). Any fixed amounts are recognized on trade date. Variable amounts are recognized to the extent it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur once the uncertainty is resolved. For variable amounts, since the uncertainty is dependent on the value of the fund at future points in time as well as the length of time an 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 value of the fund and the investors' activities are known, which are usually monthly or quarterly. Fees recognized in the current period are often related to performance obligations that have been satisfied in prior periods.

Accounts receivable from customers were \$732,000 and \$740,000 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

#### 4. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash in financial institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to \$250,000. The Company's cash balance occasionally exceeds the insured limit.

Cash equivalents totaling \$1,065,675 is an investment in a money market mutual fund.

At December 31, 2025, four hedge funds accounted for 92% of accounts receivable.

The Company has not experienced any losses in accounts receivable.

#### 5. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer providing business and financial consulting and referral transactions. The Company has identified its Managing member 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 6), 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.

#### 6. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

The Company is a member of the FINRA and NFA and subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) and CFTC Regulation 1.17, which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital of the greater of 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness, as defined, or \$5,000 and \$45,000, respectively 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 \$1,022,386 which was \$996,340 and \$977,386, respectively, in excess of the amount required. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was .38 to 1.

The Company has no possession or control obligations under Rule 15c3-3(b) or reserve deposit obligations under Rule 15c3-3(e) because its business is limited to referrals pursuant to a written agreement with a hedge fund or investment management firm and providing consulting services and the Company (1) does not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers; (2) does not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) does not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3).
