# **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT December 31, 2023 (See Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm)**

# Note 1 **Organization and nature of business**

Dunn Rush & Co. LLC (the "Company") was formed in 2009 and is a Massachusetts limited liability company. The Company offers merger and acquisition, financial advisory, and private placement services in accordance with the management agreement with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company is a registered broker dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of FINRA and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC").

All member units are restricted from transfer, unless transferred to permitted transferee's as defined in the agreement, without the Company and members being offered the first right to repurchase the units. If the Company and the other members do not exercise their right, the units may be sold to a bona fide third party.

### Note 2 **Summary of significant accounting policies**

# **Basis of presentation**

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

## **Liquidity**

The Company does not have sufficient liquidity to meet its anticipated obligations over the next year from the date of the issuance of these financial statements. In connection with the Company's assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB's Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-15, "Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," management has determined that the Company has access to funds from the Managing Member that are sufficient to fund the working capital needs of the Company through one year from the date of the issuance of these financial statements.

# **Allowance for credit losses**

In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance (FASB ASC 326) which significantly changed how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that aren't measured at fair value through net income. The most significant change in this standard is a shift from the incurred loss model to the expected loss model. Under the standard, disclosures are required to provide users of the financial statements with useful information in analyzing an entity's exposure to credit risk and the measurement of credit losses. Financial assets held by the Company that are subject to the guidance in FASB ASC 326 were trade accounts.

We adopted the standard effective January 1, 2023. The impact of the adoption was not considered material to the financial statements and primarily resulted in new/enhanced disclosures only.

{7}------------------------------------------------

# **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT (CONTINUED) December 31, 2023 (See Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm)**

# Note 2 **Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

### **Revenue recognition**

The Company adheres to the guidance under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC Topic 606"). The revenue recognition guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance requires an entity to follow a five-step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, an entity may include variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved.

Revenue from contracts with customers includes fees from investment banking and financial advisory services. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgement 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; and whether constraints on variable consideration should be applied due to uncertain future events.

Revenue from investment banking success fees are generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed (the closing date of the transaction).

Revenue from financial advisory retainer fees are generally recognized over time in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer.

Revenue from financial advisory valuation fees are generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed. Retainers and other fees received from customers prior to recognizing revenue are reflected as contract liabilities. At December 31, 2023, contract liabilities were \$25,000. Disaggregation can be found on statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2023, \$54,167 of deferred revenue was recognized as revenue.

# **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT (CONTINUED) December 31, 2023 (See Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm)**

# Note 2 **Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

### **Income taxes**

The members of the Company have elected to have the Company taxed as a partnership for income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company is not subject to federal or state income taxes. All taxable income/loss and tax credits are reflected on the income tax returns of the members.

#### **Income tax positions**

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") has issued a standard that clarifies the accounting and recognition of income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the Company's income tax returns. The Company has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Company believes that income tax positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions.

If the Company incurs interest or penalties as a result of unrecognized tax positions the policy is to classify interest accrued with interest expense and penalties thereon with operating expenses. The Company is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

#### **Fair value of financial instruments**

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, prepaid expenses, deposits, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximates fair value due to the short term maturities of these assets and liabilities.

## **Accounts receivable**

The Company records account receivable at cost.

#### **Use of estimates**

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

## **Advertising**

The Company expenses the cost of advertising as it is incurred. Advertising expense amounted to \$12,943 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

## Note 2 **Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

## **Property and equipment**

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset.

|             | Estimated   |

Depreciation expense amounted to \$20,704 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

### **Subsequent events**

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 21, 2024, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

## Note 3 **Net capital requirements**

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission's Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of a minimum net capital balance and requires that the Company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital, as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2023 the Company's net capital was \$140,464 which was \$128,685 in excess of its required net capital of \$11,779. The Company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 1.26 to 1.

## Note 4 **Concentrations**

#### **Customers**

For the year ended December 31, 2023, two customers represented 81% of the Company's revenue.

# **Cash**

The Company maintains its cash at financial institutions in bank deposits, which may exceed federally-insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and the Company believes it is not exposed to any significant risk with respect to cash. Bank balances in excess of FDIC limits is \$67,156.

# Note 5 **Leases Commitments**

The Company adheres to ASC-842 – Accounting for leases. The Company has recorded lease liability for the present value of the future lease payments, using a discount rate of 6% which is the Company's estimated incremental borrowing rate for loans with similar terms. A right-of-use asset has been recorded in the amount of the lease liability. Lease costs are being recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating leases was \$63,360.

# Note 9 **Defined Benefit Pension Plan**

On December 29, 2016 the Company adopted a defined benefit pension plan (the Plan) with an effective date of January 1, 2016. The Plan covers all employees and members of the Company meeting certain eligibility requirements. As of December 31, 2022 one employee and the two members of the Company met the criteria for eligibility. The Company's funding policy is to contribute an amount equal to or greater than the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as determined under actuarial assumptions based upon percentage of payroll or selfemployment income costs. The contributed amounts will not exceed the maximum tax deductible limit. The Plan will invest primarily in publicly traded securities including equities and fixed income instruments. Total plan assets at December 31, 2023 was \$2,205,753. All plan assets are invested in level 1 securities. These securities use a valuation methodology that provides for adjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access. The amount funded for the year ended December 31, 2023 is \$30,000. The Company froze the funding status of the plan for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company's share of the actuarially determined projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2023 is \$2,082,781 and the accumulated benefit obligation is \$2,082,781. This is based upon end of year valuations.

These amounts were calculated using the following assumptions:

| Pre-retirement interest rate  | 5% |
|-------------------------------|----|
| Post retirement interest rate | 5% |

The total benefits payable as monthly annuities are expected to be as follows:

| From 2024<br>through 2027 | \$428,279   |
|---------------------------|-------------|
| From 2028<br>through 2033 | \$783,501   |
| Lump sum payments at 2024 | \$1,090,924 |
