Organization and Business** OneChronos Markets, LLC (the "Company"), a Delaware limited liability company, was organized on November 20, 2016 and is a wholly owned subsidiary of OCX Group, Inc. (the "Parent"). On July 9, 2018 the Company became registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as a broker dealer and became a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and Securities Industry Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). The Company has been approved by FINRA to operate an alternative trading system ("ATS") for national market system ("NMS") securities. #### **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:** **Basis of Accounting:** The financial statement of the Company is prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). **Credit Risks:** Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company maintains its cash balances in financial institutions fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to \$250,000. The Company's cash balance regularly exceeds the insured limit. At December 31, 2024, 2 customers accounted for 40% of accounts receivable. **Accounts receivable:** The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13 - Current Expected Losses ("CECL") for determining future expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost, which includes accounts receivable, due from related parties, and certain off-balance sheet arrangements. The Company considers an allowance for credit losses based on factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts concerning the future, and other information. The Company has no historical losses. There are no current indicators of non-receipt from customers. Due to these factors, management has determined that no allowance was considered necessary as of December 31, 2024. **Cash and Cash Equivalents:** The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include an investment in a money market mutual fund of \$6,253,457. **Property and Equipment:** Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets of 3 years. As of December 31, 2024, the Company has no net property and equipment. {7}------------------------------------------------ Notes to Financial Statements, Continued # **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued:** **Fair Value of Financial Instruments:** Cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. **Income Taxes:** For federal, state and local income tax purposes, the Company is treated as a single member LLC. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal, state or local income taxes since the taxable income of the Company is to be included in the tax returns of the individual member. The Company follows the FASB guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed and presented in the financial statements. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected be taken in the course of preparing the Company's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained "when challenged" or "when examined" by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense and liability in the current year. Management has evaluated the Company's tax positions and concluded that the Company has taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statement to comply with the provisions of this guidance as of December 31, 2024. The Company is not currently under audit by any tax jurisdiction. **Use of Estimates:** The preparation of a financial statement in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Leases***:*In accordance with ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842), the Company recognizes leases on the statement of financial condition with lease liabilities and corresponding right-ofuse assets based on the present value of lease payments. The Company had not entered into any leases subject to this standard as of December 31, 2024. **Subsequent Events:** Management has evaluated subsequent events through March 28, 2025, the date the financial statement was issued, and has determined there are no subsequent events to be reported in the accompanying financial statement. {8}------------------------------------------------ #### Notes to Financial Statements, Continued # **3. Segment Information** In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU, which amends Topic 820: Segment Reporting, improves disclosure requirements for reportable segments and enhances disclosures for companies with single reportable segments. The Company operates under a single operating and reportable segment that constitutes all of the entity. The description of the types of products and services from which the reportable segment derives its revenues as well as the accounting policies of the reportable segment are the same as those described in Note 1 "Organization and Business" and Note 2 "Significant Accounting Policies." The Company has identified the President of the Company as the chief operating decision maker who uses total assets, which is reported on the Statement of Financial Condition, to assess the performance and allocate resources. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2024.The Company's related party transactions are described in Note 4 "Related Party Transactions". ### **4. Related Party Transactions:** The Company has entered into an Administrative Services and Expense Agreement with its Parent. Under the agreement, the Parent will provide certain administrative and support services to the Company and the Company may provide certain administrative and support services to the Parent. At December 31, 2024, the Company had a balance of \$1,590,549 due to the Parent which is included in related party payable on the accompanying statement of financial condition. The Company currently occupies office space leased by the Parent, the expense for which is allocated as part of the Administrative Services and Expense Agreement (the "Agreement"). Management has reviewed the Agreement and concluded the contract does not contain any leases under the scope of ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842). ### **5. Commitments and Contingencies** The Company may, from time to time, be involved in judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of the Company's business. The outcome of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty. As of December 31, 2024, the Company was not named in any pending litigations and therefore did not have a litigation reserve. At December 31, 2024, the Company had no commitment or guarantees outstanding. {9}------------------------------------------------ Notes to Financial Statements, Continued # **6. Regulatory Requirements:** The Company is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, of not more than 15 to 1. At December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$3,003,428, which was \$2,778,430 in excess of required minimum net capital of \$224,998. The Company's net capital ratio was 1.1 to 1. The Company has no possession or control obligations under Rule 15c3-3(b) or reserve deposit obligations under Rule 15c3-3(e) because its business is limited to operating an ATS for NMS securities and it (1) does not directly or indirectly receive, hold, or otherwise owe funds or securities for or to customers; (2) does not carry accounts of or for customers; and (3) does not carry PAB accounts (as defined in Rule 15c3-3).
