In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31 , 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### **Basis for Opinion** This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit of the financial statement provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. (!\_/( ~ **LL,fJ** Crowe LLP We have served as Alliance-One Investments, LLC's auditor since 2023.

Organization and Segment Reporting** Alliance-One Investments, LLC (the "Company"), formed in October 2016, is a limited purpose broker-dealer registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"). Registration with FINRA was effective in July 2017. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Alliance-One Services, Inc. ("AOS"), which is wholly owned by DXC Technology Company ("DXC" or the "Parent"), and operates in the United States of America. The Company provides administrative support services to its Parent to operating a Call Center and providing administrative and back office support service to existing policy holders with regard to variable life insurance and annuities (including the purchase, redemption and sales of such products). The Company operates as a single reportable segment. Enterprise management evaluates performance and allocates resources primarily based on net capital and excess net capital, which are monitored to support regulatory compliance, assess operating strength, and guide decisions regarding reinvestment or distributions. See Note 6 - "Net Capital Requirements" for further information on net capital. The Company does not have separately reported business lines, and financial information is reviewed collectively across the range of services provided. ## **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** ### **Basis of Presentation** The accompanying financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). ### **Use of Estimates** U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of historical experience, current events and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates. ### **Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash** Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in non-interest-bearing accounts at financial institutions. Restricted cash consists of cash balances which are restricted as to withdrawal or usage and is held in a fiduciary account maintained by FINRA. Cash is deposited in this account to fund future fees. ### **Fair Value** ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, and expands required disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable from the Parent approximates fair value due to the short maturity terms of this instrument. {6}------------------------------------------------ #### **Revenue Recognition** The Company's primary activity is to support DXC in providing services to customers in the insurance industry and considers DXC as its sole customer. The Company is party to a fixed-price contract with DXC to provide administrative support services to DXC and subsidiaries, which in turn provides services to policy holders with regard to variable life insurance and annuities of DXC's customers. The Company recognizes revenue based on Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The Company's sole contract reflects a single performance obligation that comprises a series of distinct services which are substantially the same and provided over a period of time using the same measure of progress. The Company satisfies the performance obligation as services are rendered. Revenue derived from this arrangement is recognized over time based upon a set monthly price in which they are provided. #### **Income Taxes** The Company is a limited liability company treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes with all income tax liabilities and/or benefits of the Company being passed through to the member. As such, no recognition of federal or state income taxes for the Company has been provided for in the accompanying financial statements. Any uncertain tax position taken by the member is not an uncertain position of the Company ## **3. Member's Equity and Related Party Transactions** The Company is party to an expense sharing agreement with its Parent, in which the Parent pays for certain expenses incurred by the Company for which the Company will not reimburse the Parent. Because the Company will· not reimburse DXC, these expenses are reported as non-cash capital contributions to the Company. There were \$456,449 of non-cash capital contributions for the year ended March 31, 2025 which materially comprises labor expenses, legal expenses, auditing fee, administrative expenses, network expenses and data storage expenses. All revenues earned by the Company are settled with the Parent through its bank account. As of March 31, 2025, the net amount due from the Parent was \$16,000. Repayment terms are defined and the receivables are non-interest bearing. ### **4. Commitments and Contingencies** The Company accrues a liability when management believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated under ASC 450, Contingencies. Regarding other matters that may involve actual or threatened disputes or litigation, the Company, in accordance with the applicable reporting requirements, provides disclosure of such matters for which the likelihood of material loss is at least reasonably possible. No contingencies were recorded for the year ended March 31, 2025. {7}------------------------------------------------ # **5. Net Capital Requirements** As a registered broker-dealer, the Company is subject to the requirements of the Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company does not claim an exemption under paragraph (k) of 17 C.F.R. § 240. 15c3-3. The Company is relying on footnote 74 to SEC Release 37-70073 adopting amendments to 17C.F.R. § 240.17a-5 and files an exemption report because the Company limits its business activities exclusively to operating a Call Center and providing administrative and back office support service to existing policy holders with regard to variable life insurance and annuities (including the purchase, redemption and sales of such products), and the Company (1) did not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers, (2) did not carry accounts of or for customers, and (3) did not carry Proprietary Accounts of Broker-Dealers accounts throughout the most recent fiscal year without exception. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$242,314 which was \$237,314 in excess of required minimum net capital of \$5,000. ## **6. Going Concern** The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the continuation of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations. Net loss was \$425,051 and net cash flow from operations was \$26,328 for the year ended March 31, 2025. The Company has been primarily funded through cash non-cash contributions from its Parent and expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. The Company and its Parent are parties to an expense sharing agreement in which the Parent and its other subsidiaries will pay expenses on behalf of the Company for which the Company will not reimburse the Parent. As of June 18, 2025, management believes that currently available cash together with the committed funding from its parent company, who has the ability and intent to provide the required funding, would provide sufficient funds to enable the Company to meet its obligations as they come due for at least one year subsequent to the financial statement issuance date. ## **7. Risk and Uncertainties** Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk primarily consist of receivable from Parent. The Company's sole customer is DXC, which is a global, publicly traded technology company. Source: SEC EDGAR via Adviser Search (https://search.stillhousedata.com).
