#### 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Stirlingshire BD LLC dba Stirlingshire Investments (the "Company"), is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state of Delaware on August 14, 2020. The Company's operations consist primarily of broker retailing over-the counter corporate equity securities, mutual fund retailer and put and call broker or dealer or option writer.

On June 8, 2022, the Company became a registered broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA)

## 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

### Basis of accounting

The accompanying statement of financial condition is presented on an accrual basis. Income is recognized when earned. The costs and expenses attributable to earning such income are reflected in the results of operations concurrently.

### Use of estimates

The preparation of the 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

## Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents for purposes of reporting cash flows includes cash on hand and highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than ninety days, that are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2025, cash was held in a single financial institution located in the United States. The Company's cash balance at times exceeds the FDIC-insured level of \$250,000. The Company has not incurred any losses with respect to this concentration.

#### Revenue recognition

In accordance with ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC Topic 606") revenues from contracts with customers is recognized when, or as, the Company satisfies its performance obligations by transferring the promised services to the customers. A service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that service. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time or over time. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied at a point in time is recognized at the point in time that the Company determines the customer obtains control over the promised service. Revenue from a performance obligation satisfied over time is recognized by measuring the Company's progress in satisfying the performance obligation in a manner that depicts the transfer of the services to the customer.

The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those promised services (i.e., the "transaction price"). In determining the transaction price, the Company considers multiple factors, including the effects of variable consideration, if any.

### STIRLINGSHIRE INVESTMENTS NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2025

### 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

### Revenue recognition (continued)

#### Commissions

The Company is an introducing broker-dealer that earns commissions from referring customer securities transactions to a clearing broker on a fully disclosed basis. These securities transactions involve listed equity and debt securities; mutual funds; and other traded investments. The Company records securities transactions as well as the related commission revenue on the trade date. The Company's performance obligations are satisfied on the trade date because that is when the underlying securities, counterparty, and pricing have been determined; and the ownership risks and rewards transfer.

The Company earns commissions from the sale of mutual fund shares. The Company has determined that its performance obligation is the selling process, which is satisfied upon transaction execution and collection.

#### Fee income

Fee income includes platform fees in which the Company provides a platform for customers to buy and sell securities and charges a fee for access to the platform. The Company generally recognizes such fees at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed.

#### Other income

Other income includes matched book and unmatched book interest income and fully paid lending rebate income.

#### Leases

In connection with the new FASB standard 842 regarding leases, which takes effect as of the first day of the fiscal year January 1, 2019, management has evaluated the financial impact the standards will have on the Company's financial statements using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not maintain any leases in excess of a one-year term. As such, the Company does not have an obligation to record a right of use asset or an offsetting lease obligation.

#### Deposit with Clearing Broker

The Company, per the terms of its clearing agreement, is required to maintain a security deposit with its clearing broker. Such deposit amounts are refundable to the Company upon termination of the agreement. As of June 30, 2025, this amount was \$249,960.

## Receivable from Clearing Broker

The Company clears all security transactions through its clearing broker. Amounts earned are reconciled monthly and paid in the subsequent month. As a result, the Company considers the amounts due from its clearing broker to be fully collectible, and accordingly, there is a commission receivable from Apex clearing of \$21,301 as of June 30, 2025.

#### STIRLINGSHIRE INVESTMENTS NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2025

#### 5. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

The Company is engaged in retailing over-the counter corporate equity securities, mutual fund retailer and put and call broker or dealer or option writer. The Company has identified it's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business, predominantly in the forecasting process, to manage the Company. Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital (see Note 4), which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy, such as whether to reinvest profits or pay dividends. The Company's operations constitute a single operating segment and therefore, a single reportable segment, because the CODM manages the business activities using information of the Company as a whole. The accounting policies used to measure profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

#### 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Management of the Company has evaluated events and transactions that have occurred since June 30, 2025, through the date these financial statements were issued and determined that there are no material events that would require recording or disclosures in the Company's financial statements.

#### 7. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statement have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. For the year ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of \$751,718 which was funded through capital contributions from its parent entity. The parent entity is committed to continue funding the Company's operations and has the intent and ability to provide financial support through additional capital contributions and/or advances sufficient to meet the Company's obligations as they become due for at least twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements.
