ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS** Angel Island Capital Services, LLC (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Angel Island Operations Holdings, LLC (the "Parent"). The Company was organized on December 26, 2013 as a Delaware limited liability company. The Company is a registered brokerdealer, effective as of February 10, 2015 ("registration date"), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of both the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") and the Securities Investors Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). The Company earns fees from investment banking transactions. The Company operates under the exemptive provisions of paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which provides that the Company clears all customer transactions through another broker-dealer on a fully disclosed basis, and does not otherwise hold funds or securities for, or owe money or securities to customers. The Company did not maintain possession or control of any customer funds or securities for the year ended December 31, 2020. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared from the separate records maintained by the Company and, due to certain transactions and agreements with the Parent, such financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of the financial condition that would have existed or the results that would have been obtained from operations had the Company operated as an unaffiliated entity. # **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** #### *Basis of presentation* The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further information over significant accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs. ## *Investment banking* Investment banking revenues include gains, losses, and fees, net of syndicate expenses, arising from securities offerings in which the Company acts as an underwriter or agent. Investment banking fees are recorded on offering date, sales concessions on settlement date, and underwriting fees at the time the underwriting is completed and the income is reasonably determinable. #### *Concentration of risk* The Company maintains cash in a bank account which is non-interest bearing. Interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts are insured by the FDIC up to \$250,000 per financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash. {7}------------------------------------------------ # **ANGEL ISLAND CAPITAL SERVICES, LLC (A Limited Liability Company) NOTES TO THE STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION DECEMBER 31, 2020** #### **2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** *(continued)* #### *Use of 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 date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. #### *Income taxes* As a wholly-owned single member limited liability company, the Company is considered to be a disregarded entity and thus does not file income tax returns in any jurisdiction. The Company files under the Parent's consolidated tax return in which all items of income, expense, gains and losses are reportable by the Parent for tax purposes. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received \$10,190 in California state related taxes. The California state related taxes are franchise taxes paid by a limited liability company classified as a corporation that does business in California. ## *Uncertain tax positions* In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification No. 740 ("ASC 740") Subtopic 05 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes," the Company did not recognize any amounts from uncertain tax positions. The Company's conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors. Generally, Federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company's tax returns for three years from the date of filing. #### **3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** The Company has entered into an expense sharing agreement with Angel Island Capital Management, LLC ("AICM"). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company reimburses AICM for certain allocated salaries, rent, communication and other expenses paid for by AICM. These charges are assessed regularly and calculated based on percentages of personnel, square footage and other factors. For the year ended December 31, 2020, AICM charged the Company \$460,221 for such expenses, of which \$244,196 remains unpaid as of year-end. {8}------------------------------------------------ ## **4. NET CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS** The Company is subject to the uniform net capital requirements of Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, which requires the Company to maintain, at all times, sufficient liquid assets to cover indebtedness. In accordance with the Rule, the Company is required to maintain defined minimum net capital of the greater of \$100,000 or 6 2/3% of aggregate indebtedness. At December 31, 2020, the Company had net capital, as defined, of \$1,092,055, which exceeded the required minimum net capital of \$100,000 by \$992,055. Aggregate indebtedness at December 31, 2020 totaled \$337,646. The Company's percentage of aggregate indebtedness to net capital was 30.92%. ## **5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS** Management of the Company has evaluated events and transactions that have occurred since December 31, 2020, through February 24, 2021 and determined that there are no material events that would require disclosures in the Company's financial statements.
