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

## Use of Esrimates

Management uses estimates and assurnprions in preparing these tinancial ,t ,t..ri"ttt. in accordance with US GAAP. Those esrimates and assumptions aflect rhe reported amounts of assets and liabiliries. the disclosure of contingent- assets and liabfities and the reported revenues and expenses. Acrual results could vary from the estimates rhat were used.

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

## Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly licluid investments r,vith mamrity of\_thre-e months oi Lir at the rime of purihas. to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash and money market funds held at banks and other ttn ancial ixsfi ruri ons.

### Revenue Recogition

The Comparry accounts for revenue under the provisions o{ASC 6}6,Ra'uueJrom Contrdcts with Customers. Under ASC 606, recogrriAon of revenue occurs when <sup>a</sup> customer obtains control of promised services or goods in an amount that reflects rhe considerarion to urhich rhe enriry expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the s[andard requires disclosure of the narllre, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flou,s arising from customer contracts.

In general, the Company applies the follou4ng steps when recognizing re-venue from conrracts witl customers: (i) identify the conlract, (ii) idenrify the performance obligarions, (iii) determine the transacrion price, (lv) allocate the iransaction price to rhe performance obligations and (v) recognize revenue rn'hen a performance obligation is satisfied-

The Company earns fees from its support and operarional services provided to its customeri in accordance with ttre-related reYenue sharing agreements. The Company has customer conrracts that have a stand-ready obligarion to perform serviies on an ongoing basis over the life of the contracr, typicaliy fol p\_eriods up to one year, where-the-sco1x of these arrangements is broad and there are no signiiicant gaps in perfomr.ing the services. These contracts consist of a fked monthly fee and a Eansaction based fee component. For thcse contracts, rhe Company recognizes the revenue over time for the availability\_ of its monthly serviie bundle, u,'hlch represents a stand-ready performance obligation. As the Company bills in arr.\*J for the prior month's services, the fixed fee, and the variaLiiiiy in rhe ilansacrion-based fee that does not align with the timing of rhe biliings to the cusromer nnay result in the recognition of a conrract asset. This can result-i., a rcquirerlent to esLimate montl'rly rransacrion based fees each monrh during the conrract term in order to determine tfie rate for revenue recognirion. this tiariable consideration is consrrained if there is an inabiliry to reliably fore cast this revenue. Ad&rionally, rhe Company may occasionally recogni=e revenue adjustrnenrs in the currenr period foi performance obligarions partially or fully sahsfied in the previous pi.iod" re.rlting from changes in estimates for the Eansacdon price, including any changes to its assessment of \$'hether an estrmate of variable considerarion is consrraiaed.

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

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, totals \$3,045,572, comprising reconciliation services fees of \$1,500,113 and aggregation services fees of \$1,431,336, recognized under ASC 606 as stand-ready obligations over the contract terms with customers. Total revenue also includes \$66,096 in interest and \$48,017 in connectivity fees. Reconciliation Services Fees: The Company earns \$1,500,113 from providing trade reconciliation and operational support to unaffiliated brokerdealers under the Revenue Sharing Agreement with Euronext Market Services LLC. Fees include fixed monthly amounts and variable transaction-based charges (e.g., basis points or volume-based rates) derived from automated processing of broker trade data through a proprietary platform. These services facilitate soft dollar arrangements and are billed monthly in arrears, with variable fees estimated and constrained when forecasts are uncertain.

Aggregation Services Fees: Aggregation services fees of \$1,431,336 reflect amounts earned under the Custodial Aggregation Services Addendum to the same agreement. The Company, as executing broker, transfers research commissions from designated clients to Euronext to pay third-party vendors for brokerage and research services qualifying under Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Fees consist of fixed annual charges (e.g., \$300 per client) and transactionbased rates (e.g., 5 mils per share domestic, 0.25 basis points international) assessed after meeting specified thresholds, distinct from reconciliation activities.

Contracts typically span one year with automatic renewals, and revenue is recognized over time as services are provided. Variable consideration may result in adjustments from prior periods if estimates change, though such adjustments were immaterial in 2024.

### Information on Remaining Performance Obligations

The Company does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. These performance obligations generally relate to the service fee income and are resolved monthly as services are performed under the terms of the contracts.

## Contract Balances

The timing of the revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by the customers. The Company records an unbilled receivable when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing and it has an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. The Company records accounts receivables when services are billed to the customer.

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

The Company had receivables related to revenues from contracts with customers of \$345,669 at December 31, 2024, consisting of \$283,439 of unbilled receivables, and \$62,230 of accounts receivable. The Company expects the entirety of these receivables to be collected in accordance with the invoice terms in 2025.

### Contract Costs

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract are capitalized if they are expected to be recovered. Incremental contract costs that have an amortization period of one year or less are expensed as a practical expedient. There were no incremental contract costs during 2024. The Company does not incur any other contract costs with the exception of the services provided by the Affiliate. At December 31, 2024, the Company owes the Affiliate \$12,915. Please see Note 7 for further details.

### Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company does not disaggregate revenue other than by service line, as it does not believe any further disaggregation provides meaningful information about its financial performance or position.

### Income Taxes

The Company is a single member limited liability company, which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for income tax reporting purposes. The Company is included in a consolidated federal, New York State and New York City group return of its Parent.

Since the transactions reported in the Company's financial statements have income tax implications to the Parent, management believes that the Company's financial statements should reflect income tax expense and deferred income tax assets and liabilities attributable to the Company. Federal, state, and local income taxes are calculated as if the Company filed on a separate return basis and the amount of current tax or benefit calculated is either remitted to or received from the Parent.

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.

{9}------------------------------------------------

The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset within the Parent's group return. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient group taxable income within the carry-forward period. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.

The Parent has evaluated the Company's tax positions and concluded that the Company has no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to or disclosures in the financial statements.

## Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments . Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13°). The new guidance required an entity to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortized cost based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts as opposed to delaying recognition until the loss was probable of occurring. The Company's assets within the scope of ASU 2016-13 include accounts receivable and unbilled receivables. For these financial instruments within the guidance's scope, the expected credit losses were determined to be immaterial considering the counterparty's credit quality, an insignificant history of credit losses, and/or the short-term nature of the credit exposure.

#### CONTINGENCIES NOTE 3 -

### Legal Matters

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of operations in the normal course of business. There were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of our operations.

There are no proceedings in which any of our management, members or affiliates, is an adverse party or has a material interest averse to our interest.
