Nature of Business** DCMB Securities, LLC (the Company), was organized in November 2007 as a single member Texas limited liability company. The Company is a broker-dealer in securities registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC). The Firm is not claiming an exemption from 17 C.F.R. § 240. 15c3-3. The Firm is filing the exemption report in reliance on footnote 74 of the 2013 SEC Release 34- 70073. As a Non-Covered Firm that does not claim an exemption under paragraph (k) of Rule 15c3-3 (i .e., paragraph (k)(I), (k)(2)(i) or (k)(2)(ii)), during the reporting period the Firm affirms that it (1) does not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, other than money or other consideration received and promptly transmitted in compliance with paragraph (a) or (b)(2) of Exchange Act Rule 15c2-4 ("Rule 15c2-4"); (2) does not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) does not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3). These conditions were met throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. Under the exemptive provisions of footnote 7 4, the Computation for Determination of Reserve Requirements and Information Relating to the Possession and Control Requirements are not required . The Company's operations consist primarily as a broker and/or placement agent in private placements of securities and merger and acquisition services to institutions located in Texas. The Company is located in Houston Texas. # **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** # Use of Estimates The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. # Cash Equivalents For purposes of reporting the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts, which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of the statement of financial condition date, and periodically throughout the year, the Company has maintained balances in accounts in excess of federally insured limits. # **See Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.** {7}------------------------------------------------ # **DCMB SECURITIES, LLC NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT JUNE 30, 2025** # Revenue from Contracts with Customers Revenues from contracts with customers are composed of investment banking fees. Such fees are recognized at the point in time when the Company's performance under the terms of the contractual arrangement is completed, which is typically at the closing of the transaction. Reimbursed expenses related to these transactions are recorded as revenue and are included in investment banking fees. In certain instances, for advisory contracts, the Company will receive amounts in advance of the deal's closing. In these instances, revenue is recognized over time in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer. There are no advances at June 30, 2025. # Revenue Recognition # Significant Judgments Revenue from contracts with customers includes fees from investment banking. 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 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. # Income Taxes The Company is a single member limited liability company and is treated as a disregarded entity for federal income tax purposes. Taxable income or loss of the Company is includable in the income tax return of the Member; therefore, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. The Company is subject to Texas state tax. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company for 2024, 2023 and 2022 are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed. # **3. Net Capital Requirements** The Company is subject to the SEC uniform net capital rule (SEC Rule I 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. Rule 15c3-I also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net # **See Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.** {8}------------------------------------------------ # **DCMB SECURITIES, LLC NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT JUNE 30, 2025** ratio would exceed 10 to 1. At June 30, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$14,456 which was \$9,456 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000. Aggregated indebtedness to net capital was 1.56 to 1 for 2025. # **4. Related Party Transactions/Concentration of Revenue and Services** The Company has an Expense Sharing and Management Fee Agreement (Agreement) Vvith a related party company, effective September 1, 2014, revised May 2022, June 2023 and November 2023. The Agreement may be terminated by either party with a onemonth notice. Under the Agreement, the related party company is to provide office space, personal property and utilities. The fee under the Agreement is \$100,000 a month, was decreased in June 2023 to \$20,000 a month and decreased to \$2,000 a month in October 2023 and represents the allocable share of the services provided by the related party company. Expenses incurred under this Agreement totaled \$24,000 during the year. There is an amount due of \$8,000 to the related party as of June 30, 2025. # **5. Commitments and Contingencies** The Company does not have any commitments or contingencies. #### 6. **Segment Reporting** The accounting policies for this segment are the same as those described in NOTE 2, Significant Accounting Policies. The Company's Chief Executive Officer assesses performance for the different segments and decides allocation of resources based on net income as reported on the income statement and segment assets as reported as total assets on the balance sheet. There is only one segment used. The Company's Chief Executive Officer uses net income to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) in deciding whether to reinvest profits into this segment or other areas, such paying distributions. # **7. Company Conditions** The Company had a loss of \$90,645 for the year ending June 30, 2025.
