### **LOCKEBRIDGE PARTNERS, INC. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Year Ended December 31, 2024**

#### **1. Nature of Operations**

LockeBridge Partners, Inc. (the "Company") is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the SIPC and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc (FINRA). The Company engages in capital raising, brokering the sale and purchase of businesses and business consulting services.

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

#### *Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### *Subsequent Events*

Management has evaluated subsequent events through January 30, 2025, which is the date these financial statements were available to be issued. There have been no material subsequent events that would require disclosure or would be required to be recognized in the financial statements as of December 31, 2024.

#### *Cash*

Cash includes cash held with a financial institution and with a central registration depository ("CRD") account with FINRA.

#### *Revenue Recognition*

The Company enters into contracts with customers calling for consulting fees and commissions to be paid according to specific payment terms, as defined. The Company, upon commencement of generating revenue, will recognize such revenue under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. To determine the amount and timing of revenue recognition, the Company will (1) identify the contract with the client, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Specifically, the Company recognizes revenue from retainers and engagement fees on a percent completion basis and contingent success-based fees are recognized upon payment. There were no customers in 2024 and so no revenue was recognized.

#### *Income Taxes*

The Company has elected to be treated as an S Corporation for both federal and state tax purposes whereby the stockholder reports all income and losses in his individual tax return. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statement reflects no provision for income taxes. The Company's income tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed.

#### **3. Subordinated Liabilities**

The Company did not have any subordinated liabilities at any time during the year ended December 31, 2024.

At December 31, 2024 the Company had net capital of \$9,398 which was \$4,398 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. The Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 0.36 to 1 as of December 31, 2024.

#### **5. Related Party Transactions**

Under a Management Services Agreement ("MSA") dated March 1, 2023 the LLC provides certain services relating to the use of its facilities.
