ORGANIZATION** #### **Operations** Miura Capital, LLC (the "Company") was organized in the State of Florida in 2007. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as a broker-dealer and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company operates under the exemptive provisions of SEC Rule 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii) and as such introduces all customer transactions on a fully disclosed basis to an unrelated third-party clearing broker ("Pershing LLC"), which is also a registered broker-dealer. The Company is own 90% by MWM Holdings group, Inc. and 10% by The HOUP Trust, a Trust created and organized under the laws of the State of Florida. ### **2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES** #### **Basis of Financial Statement Presentation** The accounting policies and reporting practices of the Company conform to the predominant practices in the brokerdealer industry and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). #### **Cash and Restricted Cash** Cash include highly liquid money markets instruments that can be redeemed on demand or highly liquid debt instruments with a purchased maturity of less than three months. During the course of operations, the Company may maintain cash balances in excess of insured limits, which approximates \$1,152,000 at year-end. Restricted cash is subject to a legal or contractual restriction by third parties as well as a restriction as to withdrawal or use, including restrictions that require the funds to be used for a specific purpose and restrictions that limit the purpose for which the funds can be used. The Company considers the cash held on deposit by its clearing organization to be restricted cash. ### **Use of Estimates** The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the year then ended. The actual outcome of the estimates could differ from the estimates made in the preparation of the financial statements. #### **Furniture and Equipment, Net** Furniture and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of these assets is computed over their estimated useful lives, 3 to 7 years, on the straight-line method. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. When furniture and equipment are retired, sold, or otherwise disposed of, the asset's carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations. #### **Leasehold Improvements, Net** Leasehold Improvements are stated at cost less accumulated amortization on the straight-line method. #### **Clearing Arrangements** The Company has a clearing agreement with Pershing, LLC to provide execution and clearing services on behalf of its customers on a fully disclosed basis. All customer records and accounts are maintained by Pershing. Pursuant to the clearing agreement, the Company is required to maintain a deposit of \$250,000 in the clearing organization. {11}------------------------------------------------ ## **2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES (CONTINUED)** #### **Due from Affiliate** Amounts due from affiliate consist primarily of trade receivables due under normal trade terms. The carrying amount may be reduced by an allowance that reflects management's best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. As management believes that the amounts are fully collectible and are therefore stated at net realizable value, management has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts. ### **Receivable from Clearing Organization** The Company's receivable from Pershing includes amounts due from unsettled trades. The Company's trades are cleared through Pershing and settled daily between Pershing and the Company. Due to this daily settlement, the amount of unsettled credit exposure is limited to the amount owed to the Company for a short period of time. The Company continually reviews the credit quality of its counterparties. On December 31, 2024, the Company had a receivable of \$1,397,964 from the clearing organization. #### **Income Taxes** The Company elected to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes. 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. The Company recognizes and measures tax positions taken or expected to be taken in its tax return based on their technical merit and assesses the likelihood that the positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of each period. Interest and penalties on tax liabilities, if any, would be recorded in expenses. #### **Government and Other Regulation** The Company's business is subject to significant regulation by various governmental agencies and self-regulatory organizations. Such regulation includes, among other things, periodic examinations by these regulatory bodies to determine whether the Company is conducting and reporting its operations in accordance with the applicable requirements of these organizations. #### **Gain (Loss) from Securities Owned** Proprietary security transactions are recorded on the trade date, as if they had settled. Securities owned are valued at fair value. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation is reflected in income currently. #### **Revenue Recognition** The Company's accounting policies for revenue recognition are disclosed in Note 3. #### **Fair Value of Financial Instruments** Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in Note 14. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular instruments. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates. {12}------------------------------------------------ #### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 ## **2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES (CONTINUED)** #### **Leases** Under ASC 842 – Leases, the Company records a right-of-use asset and related lease liability on the statement of financial condition. Such amounts are based on the net present value of future lease obligations, using an Incremental borrowing rate to determine the Company's effective cost of capital (see Note 4). ## **Segment Reporting** In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07: *Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures*. This ASU, which amends Topic 820: *Segment Reporting*, improves disclosure requirements for reportable segments and enhances disclosures for companies with single reportable segments. The Company has a single reportable segment based on the nature of its services and regulatory environment under which it operates. The nature of business and the accounting policies of the segment are the same as described throughout Note 1 and 2. The Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is the CEO. The CODM assesses reportable segment's performance and allocates resources for the reportable segment based on net income which are the same amounts in all material respects as those reported on the Statement of operations. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2024, and this adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. ## **3 REVENUE RECOGNITION** ### Riskless Principal Transactions The Company earns commission income by providing trade facilitation, execution, clearance and settlement, custody and trade administration services to its customers. Acting as an agent, riskless principal transactions revenue is generated by the Company buying and selling securities on behalf of its customers. In return for such services, the Company charges a commission. Such riskless principal transactions revenue disclosed in the statement of operations consist of one performance obligation which is satisfied on trade date. Trade execution performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time. #### Commissions Commission income is earned by providing trade facilitation, execution, clearance and settlement, custody, and trade administration services to customers. Acting as an agent, commission income is generated by the trade execution from the Company's clients' purchases and sales of securities, either on exchanges or over-the-counter, through the purchases of various investment products such as mutual funds, fixed income, options and commodity transactions. In return for such services, the broker dealer charges a commission. Revenues recognized under commission income consist of one performance obligation which is satisfied on trade date. Trade execution performance obligation is satisfied at a point in time. #### Administrative Fee Income Administrative fees represent fees earned by the Company for administrative services, executed pursuant to the terms of administrative agreements. The single performance obligation, to manage assets, is satisfied over time. However, often the transaction price contains variable consideration because it is tied to a measure of assets or capital, such as assets under management ("AUM"). The amount of variable consideration that can be included in the transaction price is limited to the amount for which it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur when uncertainties related to the variability are resolved. The element of variability is relative to the fees related to the fact that the fees are based on the AUM, and the AUM can vary each day. The promised consideration is dependent on the market and investor redemptions, thus is highly susceptible to factors outside the Company's influence. Consequently, the administrative fee is constrained and can only be included in the transaction price at the end of each reporting period. {13}------------------------------------------------ #### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 #### **3. REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)** #### Administrative Support Income The performance obligation for administrative support income is composed of rendering operational support services such as administrative, human resources, rent and information technology, administrative support income exists where the Company provides agreed-upon services for a contractually arranged price. The performance obligations for administrative support income are met over the monthly period in which the services are performed. #### 12B-1 Fee Income 12B-1 fees are generally based on a percentage of the current market value of clients' investment holdings in traileligible assets, and are recognized over the period in which clients hold the investments. The Company believes that its performance obligation is the sale of securities to investors and as such this is fulfilled on the trade date. As trailing commissions revenue is based on the market value of clients' investment holdings, the consideration is variable and an estimate of the variable consideration is constrained due to dependence on unpredictable market impacts. The constraint is removed once the investment holdings value can be determined. #### Interest Income Interest income, which is generated from financial instruments covered by various other areas of GAAP, is not within the scope of Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 606. The Company's primary interest earning asset is cash. Revenue on interest earning assets is affected by various factors, such as the composition of assets and prevailing interest rates at the time of origination or purchase. #### **4. LEASES** The Company is obligated under two non-cancelable operating leases for their office facilities in Miami, Florida and New York, New York. The offices lease provides for minimum annual rental, which is subject to escalation clauses for operating costs and taxes. The Company's operating leases expires in 2026 and 2029. Operating lease asset and liability as of December 31, 2024 are as follows: Operating lease right of use asset: \$510,700. Operating lease liability \$677,751. Total operating lease costs were \$230,432 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of the operating lease liability was \$281,542 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Information associated with the measurement of the remaining operating lease obligations as of December 31, 2024 is as follows: Weighted-average remaining lease term in years: 2.49 Weighted-average discount rate: 2.3% {14}------------------------------------------------ #### **4.

NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS** The Company, as a registered broker-dealer in securities, is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires that the Company maintain "Net Capital" equal to the greater of \$100,000 or 6-2/3% of "Aggregate Indebtedness," as defined.

511,203 | 27.79% | {16}------------------------------------------------ ## **9. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)** Changes in tax laws and rates may affect recorded deferred tax assets and liabilities and the Company's effective tax rate in the future. The Company's deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are as follows as of December 31, 2024: | Deferred tax assets (liabilities): | 2024 | |-------------------------------------|-----------------| | Right of use asset and depreciation | \$
(200,037) | | Start-up costs | 548 | | Unrealized gain/loss on securities | 66,947 | | Lease liability | 174,172 | | Other | 1,039 | | | | | Total | \$
42,669 | In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on these criteria, management has concluded that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, no valuation allowance was necessary as of December 31, 2024. The Company had a net deferred tax asset of approximately \$43,000 at December 31, 2024. The U.S. Federal jurisdiction, Florida and New York are the major tax jurisdictions where the Company files income tax returns. The Company is subject to U.S. Federal or State examinations by tax authorities for tax returns in open tax years (generally a period of three years from the later of each return's due date or the date filed). For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken during a prior period or during the current period. No interest or penalties have been recorded as a result of tax uncertainties. #### **10. MEMBERS' CAPITAL** The Company operates under an operating agreement ("Agreement") with a perpetual term, unless terminated under provisions of the Agreement. Membership capital is non-interest bearing and members are not entitled to withdraw or demand capital amounts, unless as provided for in the Agreement. Profit and losses are allocated principally based on each member's pro rata share of total capital. #### **11. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS** The Company participates in a deferred contribution 401(k) plan which covers substantially all of its full-time employees. The plan includes employee contributions and matching contributions by the Company subject to certain limitations. The Company's matching contributions along with other employee benefits were \$462,551 for the year ended December 31, 2024. {17}------------------------------------------------ NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 #### **12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES** #### **Litigation** The Company is exposed to various asserted and unasserted potential claims encountered in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. #### **Clearing Agreement** The Company entered into a revised service agreement with Pershing starting September 21, 2021 which established early termination fees that decline over 5 years. Termination Fees: In year 1 \$1,000,000 In year 2 \$500,000 In year 3 \$250,000 In year 4 \$250,000 In year 5 \$250,000 and during renewal #### **13. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK** In the normal course of business, the Company encounters economic risk, mainly comprised of credit risk and market risk. Credit risk arises from the customer securities activities which are transacted on either cash or margin basis. These transactions may expose the Company to off-balance-sheet risk in the event the customer is unable to fulfill its contracted obligations and margin requirements are not sufficient to fully cover losses which customers may incur. In the event the customer fails to satisfy its obligations, the Company may be required to purchase or sell financial instruments at prevailing market prices in order to fulfill those obligations. In connection with its clearing arrangements, the Company is required to guarantee the performance of its customers in meeting their contracted obligations. Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of customers are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. A significant amount of the Company's business activity is conducted through its related parties with customers located in Latin America. Accordingly, the Company's operations are susceptible to changes in the economies of these countries. As a securities broker and dealer, the Company is engaged in various brokerage and trading activities with domestic and international investors. The Company attempts to minimize credit risk associated with these activities by monitoring customer credit exposure and collateral values on a daily basis and requiring additional collateral to be deposited with or returned to the Company when necessary. The credit risk is also minimized by the careful monitoring of customer accounts by the clearing firm. At various times during the year, the Company has maintained deposits with other financial institutions in excess of amounts insured. The exposure to the Company from these transactions is solely dependent upon daily balances and the financial strength of the respective institutions. {18}------------------------------------------------ #### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2024 #### **14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS** #### **Fair Value Measurements** The FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), *Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures*, provides a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the FASB ASC are described as follows: - x Level 1 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access. - x Level 2 Inputs to the valuation methodology include: - quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; - quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets; - inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; - inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. x Level 3 Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. #### **Determination of Fair Value** The Company maintains policies and procedures to value its financial instruments using the highest level and most relevant data available. In addition, management reviews valuations, including independent price validation, for certain instruments. The following describes the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure different financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified. For many financial instruments, fair value is based on independent sources such as quoted market prices or dealer price quotations. To the extent certain financial instruments trade infrequently or are not marketable, they may not have readily determinable fair values. In these instances, the Company estimates fair value using various pricing models and available information that management deems most relevant. Among the factors considered by the Company in determining the fair value of financial instruments are discounted anticipated cash flows, the cost, terms and liquidity of the instrument, the financial condition, operating results and credit ratings of the issuer or underlying company, the quoted market price of publicly traded securities with similar quality and yield, and other factors generally pertinent to the valuation of financial instruments. **Corporate bonds.** Corporate bonds are valued based on quoted market prices. All US corporate bonds trade in active markets and are classified within Level 2. **Exchange traded fund.** Exchange traded funds are valued based on quoted market prices. All Exchange traded funds trade in active markets and are classified within Level 2. **US Treasury Bills.** US Treasury Bills are valued based on quoted market prices. All US Treasury Bills trade in active markets and are classified within Level 2. {19}------------------------------------------------ ## **14.
