The accompanying notes are an integral part of the statement of financial condition.

{6}------------------------------------------------

#### Note 1 - Business Summary

Old City Securities LLC (the "Company") is a Limited Liability Company registered to do business in the state of New York on April 25, 2014. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Old City Securities Holdings, LLC (the "Parent"). The Company is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and is therefore subject to certain regulatory requirements including the maintenance of a certain amount of net capital. The Company is also an introducing broker registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") and is a member of the National Futures Association ("NFA"). The Company does not hold any customer funds or carry securities accounts for customers or perform custodial functions relating to customer securities and does not claim exemption under paragraph (k) of 17 C.F.R. § 240. 15c3- 3, and is relying on Footnote 74 of the SEC Release No. 34-70073 because the Company limits its business activities to investment banking services, for which the Company receives fee income.

#### Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

#### Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and bank money market accounts with banks or financial institutions acquired with maturities of three months or less, that are not segregated and deposited for regulatory purposes.

#### Basis of Accounting

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company's year-end is June 30.

#### Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 statement of financial condition. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

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

### Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability company that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. Income tax purposes. As a disregarded entity, the Company is treated as a division of its sole owner, the Parent, and does not file a separate U.S. tax return. Instead, the Company's income, deductions, and credits are included in Parent's tax return which is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes, with all income tax liabilities and/or benefits passed through to the members. As such, the Company is not liable for income tax in the jurisdiction in which it operates except for New York City Unincorporated Business Taxes ("NYC UBT"). The Parent has elected to allocate a portion of the NYC UBT to the disregarded entity in its separate financial statements. The income tax provision for the Company is computed on a separate return basis and paid by the Company to the Parent.

The Company applied the "more-likely-than-not" recognition threshold to all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, which resulted in no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2025. Interest and penalties that would accrue according to relevant tax law would be classified as a component of income tax provision for income taxes.

#### Allowance for Credit Losses

In accordance with GAAP certain financial assets measured at amortized cost are required to have a current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology to estimate expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial asset as of the reporting date. The allowance for credit losses is based on the Company's expectation of the collectability of financial instruments, including fees receivables 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. Under the standard, the allowance for credit losses must be deducted from the amortized cost of the financial asset to present the net amount expected to be collected.

The Company generally does not require collateral and establishes an allowance based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of clients, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company considered the current conditions, and there is not a foreseeable expectation of an event of change that would result in the receivables being paid for less than the cost. Accordingly, the Company did not record an allowance for expected credit losses for the year ended June 30, 2025.

As of July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025, the Company's accounts receivables from clients, were \$5,584,526 and \$7,044,070, respectively.

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

### Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which is five years. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method.

#### Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Certain financial instruments are carried at amounts that approximate fair value due to the short term nature and negligible credit risk. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents (Level 1 ), fees receivable (Level 2), and due from affiliates (Level 2).

# Note 3 - Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at U.S. financial institution, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") for up to \$250,000. From time to time, the Company's balances may exceed these limits. As of June 30, 2025, the Company exceed this limit by approximately \$1,593,000. The Company maintains one money market fund with a balance of approximately \$1,686,000 as of June 30, 2025, which is not FDIC or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC") insured, and is not bank guaranteed.

Approximately 75% of the receivable at June 30, 2025, were from two clients.

Approximately 32% of commissions payable at June 30, 2025, are owed to two representatives.

#### Note 4 - Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) 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.

#### Note 5 - Right of Use Asset and Lease Liability

The Company recognizes and measures its leases in accordance with GAAP. 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 a lease liability and a right of use ("ROU") asset at the commencement date of the lease. The Company has identified its arrangements that are within the scope of the guidance and has evaluated its leases, which is primarily comprised of a non-cancellable, operating real estate lease for its New York office, as detailed below.

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 less at lease commencement, and do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.

The Company occupies office space in New York City. On March 10, 2025, the lease was renewed and extended, and the renewal lease includes free rent period and runs through December 31, 2030. As the result of lease renewal, the present value of future minimum lease payments of \$881,043 was recorded as additional ROU asset and operating lease liability. The lease doesn't contain a renewal option but can be extended on a month-to-month basis at the end of the lease. The lease was determined to be an operating lease.

The Company based the right of use asset and lease liability on the present value of unpaid future minimum lease payments. In accordance with the guidance, the right of use asset and operating lease liability on the statement of financial condition as of June 30, 2025, were \$893,877 and \$895,216, respectively.

Since the lease agreement does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses a riskfree discount rate for its lease. The risk free rate of 3.98% was used as the discount rate to determine present value of the additional future minimum lease payments at March 10, 2025.
