In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Astris Securities, LLC as of December 31, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. #### Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of Astris Securities, LLC's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Astris Securities, LLC's financial statements 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 Astris Securities, LLC 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 statements are 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 statements, 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. #### Supplemental Information The computation of net capital under Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission computation for determination of Reserve Requirements under Rule 15c3-3 of the Security and Exchange Commission and the information relating to possession and control requirements under Tule 15c3-3 of the Security and Exchange Commission has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of Astris Securities, LLC's financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of Astris Securities, LLC's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental {5}------------------------------------------------ ![](_page_5_Picture_0.jpeg) information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with 17 C.F.R. §240.17a-5. In our opinion, the computation of net capital pursuant to Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission of Reserve Requirements under Rule 15c3-3 of the Security and Exchange Commission and the information relating to possession and control requirements under Tule 15c3-3 of the Security and Exchange Commission are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. We have served as Astris Securities, LLC's auditor since 2024.

The Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as a private placement broker/dealer in securities and was approved as a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") on October 3, 2019. The Company files an Exemption Report pursuant to the provisions of footnote 74 of SEC Release 34-70073 as it does not hold customer funds or securities or carry accounts for customers and its business is limited to private placements. As a result, the Company is not obligated to maintain certain reserve requirements and possession and control requirements under Rule 15c3-3 of the SEC. The Company's planned principal operations are to act as a private placements agent. The Company is continuing to implement marketing efforts to accomplish such activities. The Parent has committed to provide the necessary financial support for the Company until such activities commence to generate sufficient operating cash flows. #### Basis of accounting The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. #### Use of estimates The preparation of 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. #### Income taxes Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, "Income Taxes", deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective bases. As the Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AF, which is wholly-owned by Astris Infrastructure, LLC, the Company is included in the consolidated tax return of Astris Infrastructure, LLC. Both Astris Securities, LLC and AF have elected to be treated as passthrough entities for U.S. income tax purposes and, as such, are not subject to U.S. income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. Astris Securities, LLC's {11}------------------------------------------------ #### (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Astris Finance, LLC) #### Notes to Financial Statements - Continued #### December 31, 2024 federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a limited liability company. Accordingly, the Company is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. Astris Finance, LLC is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and other taxing authorities. The Company's federal tax returns, which are filed as part of the consolidated Astris Infrastructure, LLC returns, remain subject to examination by the IRS for a period of three years. While no income tax returns are currently being examined by the IRS, tax years since 2021 remain open. #### New accounting pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU, which amends Topic 280: Segment Reporting, improves disclosure requirements for reportable segments and enhances disclosures for companies with single reportable segments. The Company has a single reportable segment based on the nature of its services and regulatory environment under which it operates. The nature of business and the accounting policies of the segment are the same as described throughout Notes 1 and 2. The Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is its executive team. The CODM assesses the reportable segment's performance and allocates resources for the reportable segment based on the net income and total assets which are the same amounts in all material respects as those reported on the Statement of Operations and Statement of Financial Position. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2024. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. #### Note 2 - Related Party Transactions Astris Securities, LLC has an expense sharing agreement with the Parent as well as with Astris Finance France for compensation and benefits, administrative services, office space and equipment. Under the arrangement, the Parent and Astris Finance France incur the services/costs which are then invoiced to the Company and are paid on an annual basis. The Company incurred \$88,799 in such services/costs and has reflected these amounts in the accompanying statement of operations. As of December 31, 2024, \$47,610 was outstanding and due to the Parent and Astris Finance France. The expense sharing agreement provides for certain costs to be paid directly by the Company, including but not limited to, FINRA assessments, registration and renewal costs, audit fees, and Fidelity Bond premiums. #### Note 3 - Net Capital Requirements The Company is subject to the SEC's Uniform Net Capital Rule (Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At December 31, 2024, the Company had net capital of \$45,128, which was \$40,128 in excess of the required net capital of \$5,000. The Company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital ratio was 1.39 to 1 at December 31, 2024. {12}------------------------------------------------ #### (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Astris Finance, LLC) # Notes to Financial Statements - Continued ## December 31, 2024 #### Note 4 - Risk and Uncertainties ## Registration Risk The Company must register with state departments which govern compliance with securities laws in states where it does business. Various regulatory requirements exist in each state with which the Company must comply. Because of the various compliance laws, there is a risk that one or more regulatory authorities could determine that the Company has not complied with securities laws necessary for it to conduct business in a given state. Regulatory actions, if ever taken, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and operating results. The Company is currently registered in DC, NY, MA and CA and the Compliance Officer monitors the regulatory requirements in those four States on a regular basis. ## Concentration of Credit Risk Cash is maintained at Citibank N.A., which, at times, may exceed Federally insured amounts. The Company has not experienced any losses to date related to these balances. #### Note 5 - Subsequent Events Events that occur after the statement of financial condition date but before the financial statements were available to be issued must be evaluated for recognition or disclosure. The effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the statement of financial condition date are recognized in the accompanying financial statements. Subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that existed after statement of financial condition date require disclosure in the accompanying notes. Management evaluated the activity of the Company through February 26, 2025 and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements. {13}------------------------------------------------ Supplementary Information {14}------------------------------------------------ #### (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Astris Finance, LLC) ## Schedule I - Computation of Net Capital Under Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission #### December 31, 2024 #### COMPUTATION OF NET CAPITAL #### Line | 1.
