ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Hastings Capital Group, LLC (the "Company") is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a broker-dealer in securities and operates under a membership agreement with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company does not claim an exemption from SEA Rule 15c3-3, in reliance on Footnote 74 to SEC Release 34-70073. ### 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES #### Revenue recognition In accordance with ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC Topic 606"), revenues from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, the Company satisfies its performance obligations by transferring the promised services to the customers. A service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that service. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that the Company determines the customer obtains control over the promised service. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring the Company's progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the services to the customer. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those promised services (i.e., the "transaction price"). In determining the transaction price, the Company considers multiple factors, including the effects of variable consideration, if any. ### Underwriting Fees The Company acts as a mutual fund underwriter on a best efforts basis only with respect to shares issued by SkyBridge Multi-Adviser Hedge Fund Portfolios LLC ("Series G") and SkyBridge GII Fund, LLC, two Regulated Investment Companies collectively, the ("RICs") managed by an affiliated entity through common ownership (the "Affiliate"). Based on contractual agreements with the RICs and the Affiliate, the fees are fixed, monthly amounts. Accordingly, revenue is recognized monthly. The Company believes the performance obligation for providing these services is satisfied because the customer is receiving and consuming the benefits as they are provided by the Company. {7}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`G MDKHR>DI>\<=>?@ABCDEP@>GD@JO>HM>T>J=CJMJICD@T>FI@A>J=MGI@DGJFCMDJRDJMHJ=>ACFa>J TCHR>@KJ=>VDT>GJA>DJYRDPGCDPJ=>MDT>GJ@FCIJMTMJM>GCF>aD@SDNS=MI=CF>A@DJ=HE\Y>>G F>I@QDMb>PMDJ=>IRFF>DJB>FM@PCF>BFMACFMHEF>HCJ>PJ@B>FK@FACDI>@OHMQCJM@DGJ=CJ=CT> O>>DGCJMGKM>PMDBFM@FB>FM@PG\ cdef'g\*/(dh')0e # <=>?@ABCDEI@DGMP>FGICG=>\_RMTCH>DJGJ@O>=MQ=HEHM\_RMPNG=@FJiJ>FAMDT>GJA>DJGSMJ= @FMQMDCHACJRFMJM>G@KJ=F>>A@DJ=G@FH>GG\<=>?@ABCDEACMDJCMDGMJGICG=>\_RMTCH>DJGMD @D>OCDaCII@RDJNS=MI=CJJMA>GACE>jI>>PK>P>FCHHEMDGRF>PHMAMJG\<=>?@ABCDE=CGD@J >jB>FM>DI>PCDEH@GG>GMDGRI=CII@RDJGCDPP@>GD@JO>HM>T>MJMG>jB@G>PJ@CDEGMQDMKMICDJ IF>PMJFMGa@DICG=>\_RMTCH>DJG\ # ke'-l'e0/md0'e <=>BF>BCFCJM@D@KKMDCDIMCHGJCJ>A>DJGMDI@DK@FAMJESMJ=CII@RDJMDQBFMDIMBH>GQ>D>FCHHE CII>BJ>PMDJ=>nDMJ>P]JCJ>G@KLA>FMICF>\_RMF>GACDCQ>A>DJJ@ACa>>GJMACJ>GCDP CGGRABJM@DGJ=CJCKK>IJJ=>F>B@FJ>PCA@RDJG@KCGG>JGCDPHMCOMHMJM>GCDPPMGIH@GRF>@K I@DJMDQ>DJCGG>JGCDPHMCOMHMJM>GCJJ=>PCJ>@KJ=>KMDCDIMCHGJCJ>A>DJGCDPJ=>F>B@FJ>P CA@RDJG@KF>T>DR>GCDP>jB>DG>GPRFMDQJ=>F>B@FJMDQB>FM@P\LIJRCHF>GRHJGI@RHPPMKK>F KF@AJ=@G>>GJMACJ>G\ o),-m'0dp'e # q@BF@TMGM@DK@FK>P>FCH@FGJCJ>MDI@A>JCj>G=CGO>>DACP>K@FJ=>?@ABCDEGMDI>NCGC HMAMJ>PHMCOMHMJEI@ABCDENMJMGD@JGROr>IJJ@K>P>FCH@FGJCJ>MDI@A>JCj>G\<=>?@ABCDEMG GROr>IJJ@q>Ss@Fa?MJERDMDI@FB@FCJ>PORGMD>GGJCj\ {8}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`OaO^`b<9CG;?;5;HFC;97CD<3C994=9:C9?:89?DC5;7797;L98CG99>CD895DE9;ECG9ED>3>:D35 3779C37;ECG989=;8CD>H?3C9I2G9355;63>:9E;8:89?DC5;7797D7A379?;>CG9O;<=3>Fc7 94=9:C3CD;>;ECG9:;559:C3AD5DCF;EED>3>:D35D>7C8@<9>C7:388D9?3C3<;8CDP9?:;7CQD>:5@?D>H E99789:9DL3A59@CD5DPD>HCG9OaO^E83<96;8dI2G9O;<=3>Fc794=9:C3CD;>D7CG3CCG9:89?DC 8D7d377;:D3C9?6DCGE99789:9DL3A59D7CG3C3>F:5D9>C6DCG6GD:GDC:;>?@:C7A@7D>9776DCGD7 @>3A59C;E@5ED55DC7:;>C83:C@35;A5DH3CD;>7Ie3>3H9<9>C<;>DC;87CG9:89?DC8D7d;E:5D9>C73>? :@889>C5FCG989D7>;C3E;897993A5994=9:C3CD;>;E3>9L9>C;8:G3>H96GD:G:;@5?897@5CD> CG9E99789:9DL3A59A9D>H@>=3D?A379?;>D>?DLD?@35E3:C73>?:D8:@<7C3>:97I2G9O;<=3>F :;>7D?987E3:C;877@:G37GD7C;8D:3594=98D9>:9Q:89?DCK@35DCFQ3H9;EA353>:973>?:@889>C3>?
