#### **1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies**

#### *Nature of Operations*

T3 Trading Group, LLC (formerly known as Titus Securities LLC) was formed under the laws of the state of Delaware on June 8, 2010 as a limited liability company and was approved as a registered broker-dealer under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. On December 9, 2010, Titus Securities LLC amended its certificate of formation and changed its name to T3 Trading Group, LLC ("the Company") in connection with the sale of substantially all of its issued and outstanding Class A limited liability membership interests, on such date.

The Company is a securities broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and became a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") on October 7, 2019. The Company engages primarily in proprietary trading of exchange listed equity securities and equity option contracts and securities commission transactions. The Company operates under the exemptive provisions of SEC Rule 15c3-3(k)(2)(ii), and the Company's other business activities contemplated by Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 adopting amendments to 17 C.F.R. § 240. l 7a-5 are limited to proprietary trading. The Company does not maintain possession or control of any customer funds or securities and is exempt from requirements of SEC Rule 15c3-3.

#### *Basis of Presentation*

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") as detailed in the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standards Codification.

#### *Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### *Concentration of Credit Risk*

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash balances which at times may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions and brokerage accounts, to the extent that such deposits exceed the maximum insurance levels of \$250,000 with Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and \$500,000, including a \$250,000 limit on cash with Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), they are uninsured. As of December 31, 2025, the cash balance in excess of FDIC insurance limits amounted to \$858,391, and the cash balance and the securities value in excess of SIPC insurance limits amounted to \$12,415,634 and \$24,260,504, respectively.

#### *Fair Value* - *Definition and Hierarchy*

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the "exit price") in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. A fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs are to be used when available.

Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

*Level 1* - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 investments. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these investments does not entail a significant degree of judgment.

#### **1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

#### *Fair Value* - *Definition and Hierarchy (continued)*

*Level 2* - Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

*Level 3* - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and are affected by a wide variety of factors, including the type of investment, whether the investment is new and not yet established in the marketplace, and the other characteristics particular to the transaction. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Those estimated values do not necessarily represent the amounts that may be ultimately realized due to the occurrence of future circumstances that cannot be reasonably determined. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed.

Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entityspecific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are set to reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including periods of market dislocation. In periods of market dislocation, the observable prices and inputs may be reduced for many investments. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified to a lower level within the fair value hierarchy.

#### *Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased*

The Company values investments in securities sold short that are freely tractable and are listed on a national securities exchange or reported on the NASDAQ national market at their last reported sales price as of the valuation date. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

#### *Securities Transactions*

Proprietary securities transactions in regular-way trades are recorded on the trade date, as if they had settled. Profit and loss arising from all securities transactions entered into for the account and risk of the Company are recorded on a trade date basis.

#### *Furniture and Equipment*

Furniture and equipment are carried at cost net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from 5 to 7 years.

#### *Income Taxes*

The Company is not a taxpaying entity for Federal income tax purposes and thus no Federal income tax expense has been recorded in the statements. Income of the Company is taxed to the Members in their respective returns. Certain state authorities levy taxes or fees on the Company based on its net income. Accordingly, the Company provides for taxes on a current basis and also accounts for the difference between financial and tax basis. No provision has been made for deferred taxes or for such differences and for its net operating loss carry forward due to its insignificance.

The Company's management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of its position. The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant taxing authority. De-recognition of a tax benefit previously recognized results in the Company recording a tax liability that reduces ending Members' equity. Based on its analysis, the Company's management has determined that it has not incurred any liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025.

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

#### **1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

However, management's conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof. The tax years of 2022 to present remain subject to examination by taxing authorities.

Management has evaluated the effect of the guidance provided by U.S. GAAP on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with provisions of ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income taxes.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax fees payable, if assessed. No interest expense or penalties have been recognized as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Company is primarily engaged in "self -trading" for its owners and is exempt from NYC UBT on the basis of a statutory exemption for an entity that does not otherwise operate a business in New York City, as defined in the UBT law.

#### *Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Loss*

The Company accounts for credit losses in accordance with ASC Topic 326, Financial instruments - Credit Losses (ASC Topic 326"). ASC Topic 326 impacts the impairment model for certain financial assets measured at amortized cost by requiring a current expected credit loss (CECL") methodology to estimate expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial asset, recorded at inception or purchase. The Company has the ability to determine there are no expected credit losses in certain circumstances.

The Company identified accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets which are carried at amortized cost as in scope for consideration under ASC Topic 326.

The allowance for credit losses is based on the Company's expectation of the collectability of financial instruments carried at amortized cost, including other assets utilizing the CECL framework. The Company considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of balances and current and future economic conditions that may affect the Company's expectation of the collectability in determining the allowance for credit losses. The Company's expectation is that the credit risk associated with other assets is not significant until they are 90 days pass due based on the contractual arrangement and expectation of collection in accordance with industry standards.

The Company did not record an allowance for credit losses at December 31, 2025.

#### *Revenue Recognition*

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The core principle of this ASU is that revenue should be recognized for the amount of consideration expected to be received for promised goods or services transferred to customers. This ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments, and assets recognized for costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract.

The Company has evaluated the new guidance and the adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements and a cumulative effect adjustment under the modified retrospective method of adoption will not be necessary.

#### *Revenue Streams*

The Company is approved for engaging in trading securities for own account and acting as broker in securities retail business, so the Company earns its revenue substantially from gains and losses from principal trading transactions and commissions and fee from client transactions.

#### • *Gains and Losses from Principal Trading Transactions*

Gains and losses included both realized and unrealized gains and losses at fair value, and are related to the Company's principal trading transactions, and securities owned and securities sold, but not yet purchased.

{8}------------------------------------------------

#### **1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

*Revenue Streams (continued)* 

#### • *Commissions and Fees*

The Company earns commissions and fees from executing and clearing client transactions through a clearing firm on stocks and options, and commission sharing from other broker-dealers. Commissions and fees are recognized on the day the trade is executed.

Based on the income streams the company believes that 606 has been addressed.

#### **13. Segment Reporting**

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"), which requires incremental disclosures about reportable segments but does not change the definition of a segment or the guidance for determining reportable segments. The new guidance requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are (1) regularly provided to ( or easily computed from information regularly provided to) the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and (2) included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss. The new standard also requires companies to disclose the title and position of the individual (or the name of the committee) identified as the CODM, allows companies to disclose multiple measures of segment profit or loss if those measures are used to assess performance and allocate resources, and is applicable to companies with a single reportable segment. The requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2025, and are required to be applied retrospectively. The Company has adopted the additional disclosure requirements under ASU 2023-07. The additional requirements did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

{11}------------------------------------------------

## **T3 TRADING GROUP, LLC NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 ( continued)**

#### **13. Segment Reporting (continued)**

The Company is engaged in proprietary trading of exchange listed equity securities and option contracts and securities retail transactions. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business, predominantly in the forecasting process, to manage the Company. Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital (see Note 4), which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or pay dividends.

The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because CODM manages the business activities using information of the Company as a whole. The accounting policies used to measure the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company derived its revenue from Proprietary trading and one external customer in 2025.

The Company's segment revenue and expenses are in line with what is in the Company's statement of income and includes all significant categories that are provided to the CODM for review. Also, the segment assets are the same as those reported in the Company's statements of financial condition.

#### **14. Subsequent events**

Management has evaluated subsequent events and no events have been identified by management which require disclosure through March 31, 2026.
