### **Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2019**

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

FixCenter, LLC (the "Company"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of FixCenter Holdings, LLC is a New York limited liability company. It is a broker dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA").

The Company's operations consist primarily of developing and providing an electronic trading platform to be utilized for fixed income trading by third party broker dealers.

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

### **Basis of Presentation**

These financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported a.mounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

### **Cash**

All cash deposits are held by one financial institution and therefore are subject to the credit risk at that financial instih1tion. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe there to be any significant credit risk with respect to these deposits.

### **Income Taxes**

No provision for income taxes has been recorded because the Company is a single member limited liability company and is thus treated as a disregarded entity. Accordingly, the individual members of its parent report their share of the Company's income or loss on their personal income tax returns. The Company's parent is subject to the New York City unincorporated business tax.

As of December 31, 2019, management has determined thal lh~ 1,;ompany had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition.

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

### **Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31 , 2019**

### **3. Regulatory Requirements**

The Company is subject to SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule I 5c3-l under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 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. At December 31, 2019, the Company had net capital of approximately \$39,400 which was approximately \$34,400 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000.

The Company does not handle cash or securities on behalf of customers. Accordingly, it is not affected by SEC Rule 15c3-3.

#### **4. Going Concern**

Accounting Standards Update 2014-15 requires that management evaluate conditions or events that might raise substantial doubt about the Company's abili ty to continue as a going concern. Management has evaluated the Company's conditions and has determined that unless the Company generates enough revenue or continues to be funded by its parent, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Capital is not a significant income producing factor and should the Company have a need for capital it has been able to rely upon its parent to infuse capital to cover overhead should that become necessary. Management has pledged additional support to the Company to enable it to operate for the next year should that become necessary.
