#### NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

## Cash and Cash Equivalents

All short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

#### Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC Topic 606"). The new revenue recognition guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue due to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance requires an entity to follow a five step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine thetransaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In determining the transaction price, an entity may include variable consideration only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized would not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company applied the modified retrospective method of adoption which resulted in no adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. The new revenue recognition guidance does not apply to revenue associated with financial instruments, interest income and expense, leasing and insurance contracts.

#### Advisory

The Company provides advisory services on mergers and acquisitions. Revenue for advisory arrangements is generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed (the closing date of the transaction) or the contract is cancelled. However, for certain contracts, revenue is recognized over time for advisory arrangements in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer. In some circumstances, significant judgment is needed to determine the timing and measure of progress appropriate for revenue recognition under a specific contract retainers and other fees received from customers prior to recognizing revenue are reflected as contract liabilities.

## Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company's 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is engaged in various investment and brokerage activities in which counterparties primarily include broker-dealers, banks, and other financial institutions. In the event counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparty or issuer of the instrument. It is the Company's policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty.

#### Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes and allows recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects

## NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – (continued)

of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.

## NOTE 4 – GOING CONCERN

The accompanying statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company had minimal revenues in 2024 and a loss from operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However, the owners have pledged to provide any required additional support to the Company to enable it to continue as a going concern and maintain required regulatory minimum net capital.

#### NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had an expense sharing agreement with its stockholder. The stockholder provides administrative and other services to the company. The current owners provide one hundred percent of all expenses to support the company. In 2024, the current owners have needed to contribute \$4,945 to maintain regulatory capital and pay expenses.

#### NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

For income tax purposes, the company operates as a "C" corporation. ASC 740-10 requires a valuation allowance to be recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At December 31, 2024, the Company has available a net operating loss carryforward of approximately \$637,000 which will expire in the year 2041. A valuation allowance of \$195,000 was established to offset the deferred tax asset arising from this carryforward. Therefore, no deferred tax assets have been recorded on the accompanying statement of financial condition.

## NOTE 7 – ASC-28 SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company uses the management approach in reporting segment information to assess performance and allocation of resources, which is presented using the disaggregation established in the Supplemental Statement of Income (Form SSOI) report which is filed with regulatory authorities on a quarterly basis. SSOI reports are the internal reporting structure which comprise the basis for management's segmentation review. The summation of each quarter is aggregated and reported herein on the Statement of Income. The president of the Company is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) and the person who shall perform the review, assess performance and allocation of resources to the Company's operating segment. The CODM has a thorough understanding of Form SSOI for use in making key operating decisions, the Company's organizational structure, its operations, budgeting and forecasting processes, and compensation of Company personnel.

## NOTE 8 – ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The Allowance for Credit Losses Effective January 1, 2021, The Company adopted ASC Topic 326, financial Instruments – Credit Losses ("ASC 326"). ASC 326 impacts the impairment model for certain financial assets by requiring a current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology to estimate expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial asset. Under the accounting update, the Company could determine there are no expected credit losses in certain circumstances (e.g., based on the credit quality of the client). The Company identified fees and other receivables (including, but not limited to,

{10}------------------------------------------------

receivables related to securities transactions, and advisory fees) as impacted by the new guidance. ASC 326 specifies that the Company adopt the new guidance prospectively by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening member's equity as of December 31, 2019. Accordingly, the Company recognized no adjustment upon adoption. The allowance for credit losses is based on the Company's expectation of the collectability of financial instruments, including fees and other 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 collectability in determining the allowance for credit losses. The Company's expectation is that the credit risk associated with the fees and other receivables is not significant accordingly, the Company has not provided an allowance for credit losses at December 31, 2024.
