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 Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys 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 Companys 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 We have served as the Companys auditor since 2023.

Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy. The 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.

Fair Value (continued) The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follow: Level 1) Valuations based on unadjusted quoted priced in active markets for identical investments. Level 2) Valuations based on (a) quoted prices in markets that are not active; (b) quoted prices for similar investments in active markets; (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable or inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or otherwise. Level 3) Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity, and significant to the overall fair value measurement. value measurement.

Financial Instruments and Risk In the normal course of its business, the Company trades various financial instruments and enters into various financial transactions where the risk of potential loss due to market risk, currency risk, and credit risk and other risks can equal or exceed the related amounts recorded. The success of any investment activity is influenced by general economic conditions that may affect the level and volatility of equity, futures, and options prices and the extent and timing of investor participation in these markets. Market risk represents the potential loss that can be caused by increases or decreases in the fair value of investments resulting from market fluctuations. Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of an investment will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Investments that are denominated in a non U.S. currency are subject to the risk that the value of a particular currency will change in relation to one or more other currencies. Among the factors that may affect currency values are trade balances, the level of short term interest rates, differences in relative values of similar assets in different currencies, long term opportunities for investment and capital appreciation and political developments. Credit risk represents the potential loss that would occur if counterparties fail to perform pursuant to the terms of their obligations. In addition to its investments, the Company is subject to credit risk to the extent a custodian or broker with whom Liquidity risk represents the potential loss that would occur if counterparties fail to perform pursuant to the terms of their obligations. In addition to its investments, the Company is subject to credit risk to the extent a custodian or broker with whom it conducts business in unable to fulfill contractual obligations. it conducts business is unable to fulfill contractual obligations. Cash and securities are maintained on deposit with the Clearing Brokers and represent the minimum balances required to Short selling, or the sale of securities not owned by the Company, expose the Company to the risk of loss in an amount greater than the initial proceeds, and such losses can increase rapidly and in the case of equities, without effective limit. There is the risk that the securities borrowed by the Company in connection with a short sale would need to be returned to the securities lender on short notice. If such request for return of securities occurs at a time when other short sellers of the subject security are receiving similar requests, a can occur, wherein the Company might be compelled, at the most disadvantageous time, to replace borrowed securities previously sold short with purchases on the open market, possibly at prices significantly in excess of the proceeds received earlier. Borrowings are usually from securities brokers and dealers and are typically secured by the securities and other assets. Under certain circumstances, such a broker dealer may demand an increase in the collateral that secures the obligations and if the Company is unable to provide additional collateral, the broker dealer could liquidate assets held in the account to satisfy the obligations to the broker dealer. Liquidation in that manner could have adverse consequences. In addition, the amount of the borrowings and the interest rates on those borrowings, which will While the use of certain forms of leverage, including margin borrowings, can substantially improve the return on invested All of the assets and liabilities held at each Clearing Broker are subject to a master netting arrangement. The master netting arrangement allows each Clearing Broker to transfer amounts between different accounts at that Clearing utilize their services. These balances are presented net (assets less liabilities) with the Clearing Brokers. In connection with Joint Back Office Agreements with the Clearing Brokers, the Company invested \$50,000 in preferred shares and \$10,000 in capital, such use may also increase the adverse impact to which the portfolio of the Company may be subject. ### 7.

In this event the amount of net capital shall be not less than \$1,000 for each security), (iii) six and two-thirds percent (6 2/3%) of aggregate indebtedness.
