In our opinion, the financial statement 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. #### **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 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 statement. 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 statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 1 I We have served as the Company's auditor since 2020.

Nature of Operations and Significant Accounting Policies** **Nature of operations:** DV Securities, LLC, (the Company), is a wholly owned subsidiary of DV Group, LLC (DV Group) and engages in lending and borrowing securities through repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions. The Company also acts as a principal in buying and selling U.S. Treasuries with select institutional counterparties. **Accounting policies:** The Company follows the accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB). The FASB sets generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that the Company follows to ensure consistent reporting of financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. **Use of estimates:** The preparation of Statement of financial condition in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Statement of financial condition, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. **Securities instruments:** Transactions in securities instruments are recorded on trade date. Securities owned by and sold, not yet purchased are carried at fair value. Contractual interest on securities owned and secured financing are recognized on an accrual basis. Amounts receivable and payable for securities transactions that have not reached their contractual settlement date are recorded net on the statement of financial condition in receivable from clearing organization. **Income taxes:** The Company is a single member limited liability company and is treated as a disregarded entity for federal and state income tax purposes. The Company does not file any tax returns, but its taxable income is reported as part of DV Group's tax returns for the period January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025. DV Group is a limited liability company whose income or loss is includable in the tax returns of its members. FASB provides guidance on how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, disclosed, and presented in the Statement of financial condition. This requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing DV Group'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-likelythan-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense and liability in the current year. Management has determined that there are no material uncertain income tax positions for the prior three years. Tax returns filed by DV Group, and the Company are generally subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities for the past three years. **Loans:** The Company maintains a \$10 million credit facility with CIBC as a syndicator to the facility. This credit facility matures on June 30, 2026. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at a variable rate equal to the base rate plus 200 basis points on drawn amounts. A rate of 100 basis points is charged on undrawn amounts. The base rate is defined in the agreement as the greater of (i) the prime rate or (ii) 400 basis points. As of December 31, 2025, the company had no outstanding liability. This loan is guaranteed by DV Group and DVT Holdings, LLC. Additionally, the Company maintains a secured credit line with BMO Bank with a maximum borrowing capacity of \$200 million, bearing interest at a rate equal to the federal funds rate plus 100 basis points. Borrowings under the facility are secured by U.S. Government and Agency securities. The agreement was amended to provide for a commitment fee of 5 basis points per annum on the average daily unused portion of the authorized amount, commencing June 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under the facility. **Offsetting of amounts related to certain contracts:** When the requirements are met, the Company offsets certain fair value amounts recognized for cash collateral receivables and payables against amounts recognized for resale and repurchase agreements with the same counterparty. See Note 5 for additional details. **Resale and repurchase agreements:** Securities purchased under agreements to resell (reverse repurchase or resale agreements) and securities sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements) are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and are carried at the amounts at which the securities will subsequently be {7}------------------------------------------------ resold or reacquired as specified in the respective agreements; such amounts include accrued interest. It is the policy of the Company to obtain possession of collateral with a market value equal to or in excess of the principal amount loaned under resale agreements. Collateral is valued daily, and the Company may require counterparties to deposit additional collateral or return collateral pledged where appropriate. In consideration of Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") model, the Company requires the borrower to continually adjust the amount of the collateral securing the financial asset(s) as a result of fair value changes in the collateral. In those situations, the Company, as a practical expedient, compares the amortized cost basis with the fair value of collateral at the reporting date to measure the estimate of expected credit losses. The Company has determined that the expectation of nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is zero as the borrower continually replenishes the collateral securing the financial asset such that the fair value of the collateral is equal to or exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset and the Company expects the borrower to continue to replenish the collateral as necessary. Resale and repurchase activities are generally transacted under master netting agreements that give the Company the right, in the event of default, to liquidate collateral held. The counterparties to all resale and repurchase transactions at December 31, 2025, are with the Government Securities Division of the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (FICC), other counterparties, and an affiliate. When the requirements are met, the Company offsets resale and repurchase agreements executed with the same counterparty and the same settlement date. The Company is a netting member of the Government Securities Division of FICC, an industry clearinghouse for repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and fixed income securities. As a netting member of the FICC, the Company is held to a minimum capital requirement of \$25,000,000. At the end of each business day, for every trade submitted to and matched by the FICC, the transaction is novated to the FICC, thereby the FICC becomes the Company's counterparty. At December 31, 2025, included in securities purchased under agreements to resell, net on the statement of financial condition are amounts under contracts with the FICC. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, netting has been applied to the FICC repurchase balance of \$11,493,360,000. **Business Segments:** The Company accounts for operating segments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting. Under ASC 280, an operating segment is defined as a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Company operates in a single reportable segment, which is the provision of securities lending and borrowing. The CODM for the Company is the Director of Finance. The CODM evaluates the Company's performance based on financial information and reviews key metrics such as trading activity, profitability, and risk exposures across all operations to determine allocation of resources. **Payable to Clearing Organizations:** Amounts payable to clearing organizations represent the cash balances and related amounts, including unsettled trades and interest owed by or to clearing organizations arising from securities transactions. **Other Assets:** Other assets of \$1,255,000 primarily consist of DTCC shares and prepaid assets. Members of DTCC are required to hold certain shares and the valuation of these shares are provided by DTCC based on internal models. The shares are restricted and can only be sold back to DTCC. The Company accounts for these shares at historical cost and adjusts its valuation annually as it receives information from DTCC. Prepaid expenses were paid in advance for services that will be received in the future. **Credit Losses on Financial Assets:** The Company evaluates financial assets that are measured at amortized cost for credit losses under the CECL model. Financial assets evaluated include cash, reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements and receivables from clearing organizations. Expected credit losses are measured based on historical experience, current conditions and forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Due to the short duration of the financial assets, there are no material estimates of credit losses related to these financial assets as of December 31, 2025. {8}------------------------------------------------ **Recent Accounting Pronouncements:** In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220- 40): Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. This ASU requires public business entities to provide enhanced disclosures that disaggregate significant expense categories included in income statement captions, such as cost of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative expenses. The objective is to increase transparency and provide users with more detailed information about the nature and variability of expenses. This standard is effective for the Company in year 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statement disclosures but does not expect it to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations. ## **Note 2. Payable to Clearing Organizations** Payable to clearing organizations consist of \$7,287,000 payable related to margin and the remaining balance is cash and related amounts as of December 31, 2025. ## **Note 3. Segment Reporting** The securities lending and borrowing segment derives revenue by engaging in repurchase and reverse repurchase transactions as well as other collateralized financing arrangements. These include interest income from collateralized transactions and trading gains or losses from U.S. Treasury transactions. The accounting policies used to measure the segment's profit or loss are consistent with those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The measure of segment assets is reported on the statement of financial condition as total assets. The CODM evaluates the Company's performance and allocates resources based on financial information. As a result, the Company's operations are managed and assessed as a single segment. The CODM uses net income, as reported in the statement of operations, to assess income generated from segment assets and excess net capital (refer to Note 11). ## **Note 4. Fair Value** 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. The Company utilizes valuation techniques to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are categorized within the fair value hierarchy based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Inputs are broadly defined as assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The Company's financial instruments are reported at fair value using quoted market prices. Financial instruments owned and financial instruments sold, not yet purchased that are actively trading and traded on a national securities exchange are valued using the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. Securities are based on fair value using recently executed transactions and market price quotations in active markets plus accrued interest. The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, including securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities sold under agreements to repurchase are recorded at contract value which approximates the fair value of these instruments due to their short-term nature and level of collateralization. There were no Level 1, 2 or 3 investments as of December 31, 2025. ## **Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies** The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company defends against these claims and, in the opinion of management the results of these legal matters will not result in any material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. {9}------------------------------------------------ From time to time and in the normal course of business, the Company will enter into forward starting reverse repurchase agreements and forward starting repurchase agreements. As of December 31, 2025, the Company entered into forward starting reverse repurchase agreements and forward starting repurchase agreements of \$2,135,136,000 and \$110,469,000 respectively, both commencing on January 2, 2026 and maturing on January 5, 2026. In addition, the Company entered into forward starting reverse repurchase agreements and forward starting repurchase agreements with affiliates of \$50,469,000 and \$528,688,000 respectively, both commencing on January 2, 2026 and maturing on January 5, 2026. ## **Note 6. Offsetting** The Company holds resale and repurchase agreements that are either eligible for offset in the statement of financial condition and/or are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. Master netting arrangements allow the counterparty to net applicable collateral held on behalf of the Company against applicable liabilities or payment obligations of the Company to the counterparty. These arrangements also allow the counterparty to net any of its applicable liabilities or payment obligations they have to the Company against any collateral sent to the Company. The following tables provide disclosure regarding the effect or potential effect of offsetting of recognized derivative instruments, resale and repurchase agreements presented in the statement of financial condition: | | Gross Amounts of Recognized | | Net Amounts of Recognized

Collateral** Reverse repurchase and repurchase agreements are collateralized primarily by receiving or pledging securities, respectively. Typically, the Company has rights of rehypothecation with respect to the securities collateral received under reverse repurchase agreements. As of December 31, 2025, substantially all securities collateral received under reverse repurchase agreements has been delivered or repledged in connection with repurchase agreements. Also, the counterparty generally has rights of rehypothecation with respect to the securities collateral from the Company under repurchase agreements. The Company monitors the fair value of underlying securities in comparison to the related receivable or payable, including accrued interest, and as necessary, transfers or requests additional collateral as provided under the applicable agreement to ensure transactions are adequately collateralized. Maturities of financial instruments sold under agreements to repurchase accounted for as secured borrowings are provided in the table below: | Securities sold under agreements to repurchase: | Overnight | Term | |-------------------------------------------------|------------------|---------------| | U.S. Government Securities | \$14,145,596,000 | \$300,061,000 | | Mortgage Backed Securities | \$5,120,554,000 | \$112,737,000 | At December 31, 2025, the fair value of assets obtained from securities purchased under agreements to resell is approximately 19,985,311,000 and the fair value of assets pledged as collateral under agreements to repurchase is approximately 19,832,477,000 . Counterparty cash margin received or posted is included within the respective balances of "Securities purchased under agreements to resell, net" or "Securities sold, under agreements to repurchase, net." These amounts represent additional collateral exchanged between counterparties to address shortfalls arising from changes in the {10}------------------------------------------------ market value of securities. For the year ending December 31, 2025, counterparty cash margin included in Securities purchased under agreements to resell, net and Securities sold, under agreements to repurchase, net was \$4,772,000 and \$3,831,000 respectively. #### **Note 8. Related Party Transactions** There were no amounts due to or receivable from DV Group. Eligible employees of the Company may participate in the 401(k) plan of DV Group. At December 31, 2025, the Company had a payable of \$8,500 to affiliates which is included in Payables to affiliates. In addition, at December 31, 2025, the Company had no outstanding loan receivable from affiliates. However, during the year, the Company had a loan receivable from an affiliate with no stated maturity date and an interest rate per annum as agreed upon by both parties. The Company provides a repurchase financing facility for the benefit of its affiliate. During 2025, the repurchase financing was done on an overnight basis at prevailing market interest rates and subject to a master repurchase agreement. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had Securities purchased under agreements to resell of \$6,389,820,000 and Securities purchased under agreements to repurchase of \$3,354,719,000 reflected net on the Statement of Financial Condition as Securities purchased under agreements to resell of \$3,035,101,000 with this affiliate. #### **Note 9. Indemnifications** In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide indemnifications under certain circumstances. The Company's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. The Company expects the risk of loss to be remote. ## **Note 10. Market Risk and Concentrations of Credit Risk** Exposure to market risk is influenced by several factors, including the relationships between financial instruments and the Company's proprietary inventories, and the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the financial instruments are traded. The Company manages its exposure to market risk arising from the use of these financial instruments through various analytical monitoring techniques. The Company enters into various transactions with broker-dealers and other financial institutions. In the event these counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk. It is the Company's policy to monitor the creditworthiness of each party with which it conducts business. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash deposits. ## **Note 11. Net Capital Requirements** The Company is subject to the minimum net capital requirements under CFTC regulation 1.17(a)(1)(i), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum Net Capital of \$1,000,000.
