### **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

DCPA

To Those Charged with Governance and the Member of ST Invest LLC:

#### **Opinion on the Financial Statement**

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of ST Invest LLC (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the statement of financial condition presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### *Substantial Doubt About the Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern*

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and cash outflows from operating activities that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

#### **Basis for Opinion**

This financial statement is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's 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 statements. 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 statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

## ST Invest LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of December 31, 2025

#### NOTE 1 - Organization

ST Invest LLC (the "Company") is a New York Limited Liability Company formed on May 9, 2018. The Company became a registered broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on February 28, 2019. The Company is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"), and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC").

The Company conducts the following types of business: (1) broker or dealer retailing corporate equity securities over-the-counter; (2) non-exchange member arranging for transactions in listed securities by exchange member; (3) options broker or dealer or option writer; and (4) other: margin accounts. However, since the Company sold and transferred all customer accounts to Open to the Public Investing, Inc. on May 23, 2024, and subsequent acquisition by Alto Solutions, Inc. in March 2025, the Company has not maintained any customer accounts and therefore has not earned any income from its securities business.

The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alto Solutions, Inc. ("Member," "Parent" or "Alto"). See NOTE 12 – Acquisition by Alto Solutions, Inc. below for details.

#### NOTE 2 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") has established the Accounting Standards Codification ("Codification" or "ASC") as the authoritative source of generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") recognized by the FASB. The principles embodied in the Codification are to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP in the United States. New accounting pronouncements are incorporated into the ASC through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs").

For the year ending December 31, 2025, various ASUs issued by the FASB were either newly issued or had effective implementation dates that would require their provisions to be reflected in the financial statements for the year then ended. The Company has either evaluated or is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of each of these pronouncements and the possible impact they may have on the Company's financial statements. In most cases, management has determined that the pronouncement has either limited or no application to the Company and, in all cases, implementation would not have a material impact on the financial statements taken as a whole.

#### NOTE 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

#### Basis of preparation – Going concern

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (ASC 205-40), requires management to assess the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are issued. As required by this standard, management's evaluation shall initially not take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of management's plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued.

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other early stage fintech consumer technology companies, including our dependence on key individuals, uncertainty of product development and generation of revenues and positive cash flow, dependence on outside sources of capital, risks associated with research, development, testing, and competition against well-funded competitors. The attainment of profitable operations is dependent on future events, including obtaining adequate financing to support the Company's growth and operating activities and generating a level of revenues adequate to support the cost structure.

The Company has experienced net losses and net cash outflows in operating activities since its incorporation. The Company expects to continue to incur net losses and have cash outflows for at least the next 12 months. The Company is dependent on Parent to support its financing needs.

Management has evaluated the significance of the conditions described above in relation to the Company's ability to meet its obligations and concluded that, without additional funding or giving consideration to potential mitigating plans, the conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management continues to closely monitor liquidity and plans to continue funding operations by reducing expenses and raising additional capital at the Parent, there is no assurance that management's plans will be successful.

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

## ST Invest LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of December 31, 2025

#### NOTE 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

#### Basis of preparation – Going concern (continued)

The accompanying financial statements are prepared on a standalone single-entity basis and have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from uncertainty related to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

#### Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates as provided per monthly percentage allocations as reflected on the Company's Expense Sharing Agreement with its Parent. The Company estimates the percentage of expenses allocable from the Parent on a monthly basis; primarily related to compensation, stock-based compensation, and technology, data, and communication costs. The Company considered numerous objective and subjective factors in determining the amount of the Company's expenses. The Company believes this to be a reasonable methodology based on previous transactions involving the Company's ongoing monthly expenses.

#### Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost net of depreciation. Repairs and maintenance to these assets are charged to expense as incurred; major improvements enhancing the function and/or useful life are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method. When items are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses arising from such transactions are recognized. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company determined that its remaining fixed assets were no longer in service and were formally retired. Consequently, the remaining cost and accumulated depreciation were removed from the accounts. This retirement resulted in a write-off of the remaining net book value of \$276. As of December 31, 2025, the Company holds a net fixed asset balance of \$0.

#### Intangible Assets

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not have intangible assets as shown on the Statement of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company determined that the "Trade App" trademark would no longer be utilized due to strategic rebranding. In accordance with U.S. GAAP regarding the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets, the Company determined the asset had no remaining future economic value. Consequently, the Company abandoned the trademark and recognized a write-off of the remaining unamortized net book value of \$644. As of December 31, 2025, the net carrying value of the intangible asset is \$0.

#### Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

#### NOTE 4 - Related Party Transactions

The Company has entered into an expense sharing agreement with Alto, effective April 1, 2025. The terms of this agreement stipulate that Alto provides for certain operating expenses and other specific business expenses. The overhead expenses incurred by the Company each month based on an allocation schedule are waived by Alto in the form of a Written Consent of Acceptance of Additional Capital Contribution and are generally considered to be non-cash capital contributions. Overhead expenses, as defined by the agreement, shall include specific operating costs incurred in the ordinary course of business. It is possible that the terms of certain of the related party transactions are not the same as those that would result for transactions among wholly unrelated parties.

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

## ST Invest LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of December 31, 2025

#### NOTE 5 - Deposit with and due from Clearing Broker

Upon the Company's sale of its customer accounts and FINRA's subsequent approval of Alto acquiring 100% of the Company's membership interests from Stocktwits, Inc. ("Stocktwits"), the direct parent of the Company (see NOTE 12 – Acquisition by Alto Solutions, Inc. below for details) the Company no longer maintains a clearing agreement with Apex Clearing ("Clearing Broker") to introduce securities transactions to the clearing broker on a fully disclosed basis. The clearing deposit was returned in the prior year.

#### NOTE 6 - Operating Lease

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which superseded the existing guidance for lease accounting. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application. The Company evaluated its existing vendor agreements, including its expense sharing agreement for the recognition criteria under this guidance. It was determined that during the year ended December 31, 2025, no agreements or arrangements existed that met the criteria to be classified as a lease under the adopted guidance.

#### NOTE 7 - Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market. Valuation techniques that are consistent with the market, income, or cost approach, as specified by FASB ASC 820, are used to measure fair value.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

Level 1 Quoted prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable

Level 3 Assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

(The unobservable inputs should be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company's own data.)

At December 31, 2025, there were no financial instruments held during the year.

#### NOTE 8 - Net Capital Requirement

The Company is a registered broker-dealer and is subject to the SEC's Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1. This requires that the Company maintain minimum net capital of \$5,000 and also requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness, as defined, to net capital, shall not exceed 15 to 1 (and the rule of the "applicable" exchange also provides that equity capital may not be withdrawn or cash dividends paid if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 15 to 1).

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had net capital of \$14,199 which was \$9,199 in excess of its required net capital of \$5,000; and the Company's ratio of aggregate indebtedness (\$200) to net capital ratio was 0.00 to 1.

Advances, dividend payments and other equity withdrawals are restricted by the regulations of the SEC, and other regulatory agencies are subject to certain notification and other provisions of the net capital rules of the SEC.

The Company qualifies under the exemptive provisions of Rule 15c3-3 under Section (k)(2)(ii) as the Company does not carry security accounts for customers or perform custodial functions related to customer securities.

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

## ST Invest LLC NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of December 31, 2025

#### NOTE 9 - Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has no commitments or contingent liabilities as December 31, 2025.

#### NOTE 10 - Income Taxes

The Company is a wholly owned, disregarded entity of Alto, a corporation. The tax obligations of the Company are passed through to its Parent and are not the responsibility of the single member LLC. Because the potential provision is not expected to have a material impact on the reported financials, and because the Company has no commitments to fund the tax liability at the Parent level (or receive any tax benefit from Parent), and no tax sharing agreement with the Parent is in place, management did not accrue an income tax provision on the financials for the period ended December 31, 2025.

#### NOTE 11 - Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated events subsequent to the Statement of Financial Condition date for items requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements. The evaluation was performed through the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Based upon this review, the Company has determined that there were no events which took place that would have a material impact on its financial statements. The Parent made \$11,450 in capital contributions subsequent to year end but before issuance of the audited financial statements.

#### NOTE 12 – Acquisition by Alto Solutions, Inc.

On January 20, 2025, the Company submitted a Continuing Membership Application ("CMA") pursuant to FINRA Rule 1017(a)(4) to obtain FINRA's approval for a change in direct ownership. Under the terms of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement ("MIPA"), Alto Solutions, Inc. ("Alto") acquired 100% of the Company's membership interests from Stocktwits, Inc. ("Stocktwits"), the direct parent of the Company. Since FINRA approval on March 31, 2025, the Company has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alto.

#### NOTE 13 – Segment Reporting

The Company follows ASC 280, Segment Reporting (including adoption of ASU 2023-07), which requires companies to disclose segment data based on how management makes decisions about allocating resources to segments and evaluating performance.

The Company conducts its business activities and reports financial results as a single reportable segment, brokerage services segment. Using the management approach, qualitative and quantitative criteria established by ASC 280, the Company is considered to be a single reportable segment. The President of the Company acts as the Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance in a manner consistent with the way the Company operates its business and presents their financial results. The nature of business and accounting policies of the brokerage services (update name of segment) segment are the same as described in the organization and nature of business and summary of significant accounting policies.
