The Company was approved by FINRA to operate as a registered broker on October 9, 2019. The Company's operations consist primarily of providing marketing and distribution services to financial intermediaries and institutions.

The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of iM Global Partner SAS (the "Parent"). Since the Company is a limited liability company, the member is not liable for the debts, obligations, or liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, unless the member has signed a specific guarantee. Pursuant to the Company's limited liability agreement, the Company will continue indefinitely, or at such an earlier time as determined by the member.

## B. Summary of significant accounting policies

#### Basis of Accounting

The Company has prepared the accompanying financial statement in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

#### Use of Estimates

The Company's accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). To prepare the financial statement in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the financial statements, and income and expenses during the reporting period. Circumstances and events that differ significantly from those underlying the Company's estimates and assumptions could cause actual financial results to differ from those estimates.

The Company has applied accounting policies and estimation methods consistently presented in the financial statement.

#### Income Taxes

The Company is organized as a limited liability company and has elected to be treated as a corporation for tax purposes and, as such, it is liable for federal or state income taxes.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for all future tax consequences attributable to "temporary differences" between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

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

#### Notes to the Financial Statement December 31, 2023

#### Income Taxes (Continued)

The Company recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the guidance, the Company assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustaination based on the facts, circumstances, and information available at the end of each period. The measurement of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when new information is available or when an event occurs that requires a change.

#### The Allowance for Credit Losses

ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326") impacts the impairment model for certain financial assets by requiring a current expected credit loss ("CECL") methodology to estimate expected credit losses over the entire life of the financial asset. Under the accounting update, the Company could determine there are no expected credit losses in certain circumstances (e.g., based on the credit quality of the client).

The allowance for credit lossed on the Company's expectation of the collectability of financial instruments, including fees and other receivables utilizing the CECL framework. The Company considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of balances and current and future economic conditions that may affect the Company's expectation of collectability in determining the allowance for credit losses. The Company's expectation is that the credit risk associated with its financial assets are not significant accordingly, the Company has not provided an allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2023.

### F. Concentration of credit risk

From Time to time, the Company will maintain cash balances in a financial institution which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company is subject to the extent any financial institution with which it conducts business is unable to fulfill contractual obligations on its behalf. Management monitors the financial condition of such financial institutions and does not anticipate any losses from these counterparties.

The Company is engaged in brokerage and distribution activities in which counterparties are primarily mutual fund companies related by common ownership. In the event counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparty or issuer of the financial product. Under ASC 326, the Company has evaluated the creditworthiness of client counterparties and issuers of financial products and determined that credit risk is minimal, hence, no allowance for credit losses was established as of year ended December 31, 2023.

#### Risks and Uncertainties

Since 2020, with the first worldwide pandemic situation in modern times, the company was exposed to the adverse financial, economic, and geopolitical context. In 2024 management will continue to monitor and anticipate, where possible, the evolution of such risks and their potential impact on the Company and its stakeholders.

### G. Net capital requirements

The Company is a member of FINRA and is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1. This rule requires the maintenance of minimum net capital which requires a ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1, in the year of operation. Net capital and the related net capital ratio may fluctuate on a daily basis. At December 31, 2023 the Company had a net capital of \$523,063 which was \$517,694 above its required net capital of \$5,369. At December 31, 2023, the Company's net capital ratio was 0.15 to 1.
