Nature of business: Marriott Securities, LLC (the Company) was formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia as a single member limited liability company owned by Marriott Management, LLC (the Parent). The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC). The Company brokers private placements of securities and offers merger and acquisition advisory services.

The Company is governed by the Operating Agreement of Marriott Securities, LLC.

In addition, the liability of the member of the Company is limited to the member's equity.

Basis of accounting: The Company's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP).

Cash and cash equivalents: The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Such amounts are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

Income taxes: The Company is a single member limited liability company and is not a tax filing or paying entity for income tax purposes. Thus, no income tax expense has been recorded in the financial statements. The income or loss of the Company is passed through to the Parent and included in the computation of the Parent's taxable income.

Use of estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
