### Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2025

## 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

### Business Activity

Bridgewood Advisors Inc. (the "Company") was formed in Wisconsin on April 25, 2011. The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company's principal business activity is a merger and acquisition advisory firm that specializes in conducting strategic acquisition searches, selling privately held businesses, and divesting noncore corporate divisions and product lines.

## Reserves and Custody of Securities

The Company has no possession or control obligations under SEA Rule 15c3-3(b) or reserve deposit obligations under SEA Rule 15c3-3(e) because its business is limited to merger and acquisition advisory services.

### Income Taxes

The Company has elected S corporation status. Earnings and losses are included in the federal and state income tax returns of the shareholders.

The Company adopted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This standard describes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides guidance on various related matters such as derecognizing, interest, penalties and disclosures required. Management of the Company evaluates the uncertain tax positions taken, if any, and consults with outside counsel as deemed necessary. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities in income tax expense.

The Company's income tax returns are subject to review and examination by federal and state authorities.

### Cash

Cash consists of the Company's checking accounts.

# Trade Accounts Receivables and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company records receivables based on contract value less management's estimate for credit losses based on historical credit loss experience, credit quality, and economic conditions or payment behavior. The Company believes that the allowance for credit losses is appropriate based on the information available as of December 31, 2025. Receivables are reviewed periodically by management to determine the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses. The Company had no write-offs or allowance for credit lineses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 as all receivables are considered collectible. Trade accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was \$100,100 and \$7,503, respectively.

# 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

### Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and are depreciated using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Major expenditures for property and equipment are capitalized between three and seven years. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, their costs and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and resulting gains or losses are included in income. Property and equipment is fully depreciated.

## Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. If impairment has occurred, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value and the impairment is recognized as a loss against current operations. There were no impairments of long-lived assets during 2025.

### Leases

The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with FASB ASC 842, Leases. The Company is a lessee in one noncancellable operating lease, for office space. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at inception of a contract and when the terms of an existing contract are changed. The Company recognizes an operating lease liability and a right of use ("ROU") asset at the commencement date of the lease.

ROU Asset - A lessee's ROU asset is measured at the commencement date at the amount of the initially-measured lease liability plus any lease payments made to the lessor before or at the commencement date, minus any lease incentives received; plus any initial direct costs. Unless impaired, the ROU asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the remeasured, direction of the liability (i.e., present value of the remaining lease payments), plus unanortized initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received, and any impairment recognized. Lease cost for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Operating Lease Liabilities - An operating lease liability is initially and subsequently measured based on the present value of its future lease payments. Variable payments are included in the future lease payments when those variable payments depend on an index or a rate, and are measure using the indox or rate at the commencement date. The discount rate is the implicit rate if it is readily determinable; otherwise, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date for each lease. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms and in a similar economic environment. The Company determines its in cremental borrowing rates by starting with the interest rates on its recent borrowings and other observable market rates and adjusting those rates to reflect differences in the amount of collateral and the payment terms of the leases

## Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2025 (Continued)

# 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

### Leases (Continued)

Short-term Leases - The Company has elected, for all underlying classes of assets, to not recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of 12 months or Joss at lease commencement, and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company recognizes lease cost associated with its short-term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has no short-term leases.

Lease and Non-Lease Components - The Company accounts for non-lease components separately.

See Note 4 "Leases" for additional information on the Company's lease.

### Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when promised services are provided in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when the Company saiding a performance obligation.

The Company enters into contracts with its customers to provide investment banking services, which are generally short-term contracts allowing for the satisfaction of all performance obligations in less, than one year. Revenues from these contracts primarily consists of two components; (1) monthly fees billed from the inception of the contract through the close of the transaction of the agreement and (2) a final success fee based on an agreed upon calculation typically based on a percentage of the transaction size. A contract exists when it has approval and commitment from both parties of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance, and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company's contracts with customers typically include two performance obligations.

The pricing and payment terms for contracts are based on the Company's standard terms and conditions or the result of specific negotiations with each customer. Contracts do not contrain a significant financing component as the Company's standard terms and conditions generally require payment as services are provided and at the close of each transaction.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections results in receivables, contract assets, and contract liabilities. Trade accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional and are presented separately in the balance sheet. The Company does not have significant contract assets and contract liabilities as of December 31, 2025.

## Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2025 (Continued)

## 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

## Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

### Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated all subsequent events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued, February 24, 2026 for possible inclusion as a disclosure in the financial statements. There were no subsequent events that required recognition or disclosure.

## 2. Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires that the ratio of aggregated indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. Rule 15c3-1 also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn, or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. At December 31, 2025, the Company's net capital and required net capital were \$50,328 and \$5,000, respectively. The ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 0.1 to 1.

### 4. Leases

The Company has obligations as a lessee for office space. The Company classifies this lease as an operating lease. In November 2024, the Company signed a lease to commence on January 1, 2025 with access to the space being granted in December 2024. This lease contains one renewal option for five years. Because the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option, the optional period is not included in determining the lease term, and associated payments under the renewal option is excluded from lease payments as used to determine the lease liability. The Company's lease does not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants. The Company's office space leases require it to make variable payments for the Company's proportionate share of the building's property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance.
