**(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of CVC Credit Partners, LLC) Notes to Financial Statement December 31, 2025**

The Company is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company acts primarily as finder and/or placement agent to its own proprietary funds, as well as affiliated funds under Rule 506 of Regulation D and Regulation S. Fund sales in which the Company engages generally involves securities that are not registered with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 and that are offered by private equity funds or funds that are also not registered with the SEC pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Company also acts as an underwriter in firm commitment or best efforts registered offerings.

#### **2. Summary of significant accounting policies**

#### *Basis of Presentation*

The accompanying financial statement is presented in U.S. Dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

#### *Use of Estimates*

The preparation of the financial statement 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 financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

#### *Revenue Recognition*

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC Topic 606"), which requires that an entity recognize revenue 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 Company follows a five-step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, ( c) determine the transaction 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.

#### *Interest Income*

The Company generates interest income from cash held in its bank accounts. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis in the period in which it is earned. These interest-bearing deposits are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

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

**(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of CVC Credit Partners, LLC) Notes to Financial Statement December 31, 2025** 

#### **2. Summary of significant accounting policies - continued**

#### *Services Income from Parent*

The Company generates revenue through the reimbursement of its non-Capital Markets operating expenses ( excluding SIPC assessment and income taxes) of the Company plus a mark-up of 10% under the service agreement with the Parent. Revenue is recognized and the performance obligation is satisfied when the underlying expenses have been incurred.

#### *Underwriting Income*

Fees from underwriting are recognized in accordance with the terms of the related investment banking and advisory service agreements. Revenue under these agreements 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 canceled.

#### *Furniture and Equipment*

Furniture and Equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and are depreciated using the straight line method based on their respective estimated useful lives.

#### *Income Taxes*

The Company is a single member Limited Liability Company and is treated as a disregarded entity for Federal and state/local income tax purposes and therefore any income or loss is included in the consolidated federal and state/local income tax returns of the Parent. The Company is not subject to federal and state income taxes.

#### *Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities*

The Company accounts for its long-term leases under the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842, Leases. The guidance requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the statement of financial condition. 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 lease liability is initially and subsequently recognized based on the present value of its future lease payments. The discount rate is the implicit rate if it is readily determinable or otherwise the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. The implicit rates of our leases are not readily determinable and accordingly, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date for all leases. 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 right of use asset is subsequently measured throughout the lease term at the amount of the remeasured lease liability (i.e., present value of the remaining lease payments), less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received. Lease cost for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

**(A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of CVC Credit Partners, LLC) Notes to Financial Statement December 31, 2025** 

#### **2. Summary of significant accounting policies - continued**

The lease is classified as an operating lease and is included in the data presented above. The Company also leases a printer/copier. The lease is for a 60-months term expiring in 2027. The lease is classified as an operating lease and is included in the data presented below.

The undiscounted maturity of the non-cancellable lease payments under the current lease agreement as of December 31, 2025 are as follows:

Year ending December 31,

| 2026                                 | 2,914,003  |
|--------------------------------------|------------|
| 2027                                 | 791,414    |
| 2028                                 | 780,984    |
| 2029                                 | 780,984    |
| 2030                                 | 788,099    |
| 2031-2040                            | 8,676,084  |
| Total undiscounted lease payments \$ | 14,731,568 |
| Imputed interest \$                  | 4,021,591  |
| Total discounted lease payments \$   | 10,709,977 |
|                                      |            |

The weighted average discount rate for both leases as of December 31, 2025 was 4. 79%.

#### *Segment reporting*

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which is comprised of several classes of services outlined in Note 1. The Company has identified its CEO and CCO as the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") group, 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 6), which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy. The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the 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.

#### **3. Cash and concentration of credit risk**

In the normal course of business, the Company maintains its cash balances in one financial institution. The deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to \$250,000. At December 31, 2025, the Company had \$22,385,701 in excess of the FDIC-insured limit. The Company is subject to credit risk should the financial institution be unable to fulfill its obligations. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management monitors the financial condition of the financial institution and does not anticipate any losses from this counterparty.

#### **6. Share-based compensation**

The Company established a new grant on October 6, 2025 under the CVC Long Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The grant consists of Equity-settled Options, where participants are granted options to acquire ordinary shares in CVC Capital Partners plc at market value set on grant date and Cash-settled Phantom Awards, where participants are granted rights to receive a cash payment based on the market value of CVC Capital Partners plc ordinary shares over a notional exercise price set at the time of the grant.
