The accompanying notes are an integral part of this financial statement.

{6}------------------------------------------------

#### **1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies**

#### Nature of Business

Sunthay GRX LLC ("Sunthay GRX" or the "Company") is a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state of Delaware on April 14, 2021. On May 3, 2022, the Company was granted membership by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). The Company is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is a member of FINRA. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunthay Holdings LLC ("Sunthay Holdings"). The Company refers business to another broker-dealer.

#### Basis of Presentation

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

#### Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with U.S. 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. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

#### Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification **("ASC")**  Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC Topic 606']. The revenue recognition guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

The guidance requires an entity to follow a five-step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

#### Allowance for Credit Losses

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The ASU introduces a new credit loss methodology, Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL"), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. Since its original issuance in 2016, the FASB has issued several updates to the original **ASU.** 

{7}------------------------------------------------

#### **1. Nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies (continued)**

#### Allowance for Credit Losses (continued)

The CECL methodology utilizes a lifetime "expected credit loss" measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for certain financial assets at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. The methodology replaces the multiple existing impairment methods in current U.S. GAAP, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized.

For certain financial assets measured at amortized cost (e.g., cash and cash equivalents), the Company has concluded that there are de minim us expected credit losses based on the nature and contractual life or expected life of the financial assets.

#### **2. Related party transactions**

Sunthay GRX and Sunthay Holdings entered into an Administrative Services Agreement (the "Expense Sharing Agreement"). In accordance with the Expense Sharing Agreement, Sunthay **GRX** reimburses Sunthay Holdings on a monthly basis for a proportional share of expenses as detailed **in** the agreement. The expenses associated with the Agreement include occupancy, salaries and personnel costs, travel and entertainment, professional fees , and other. During the period ended December 31 , 2023, the Company incurred expenses under the Expense Sharing Agreement, \$48,695 of which is included as Due to Sunthay Holdings on the accompanying statement of financial condition. During the period ended December 31 , 2023, Sunthay Holdings forgave \$764,312 of expenses under the expense sharing agreement.

#### **3. Net capital requirements**

The Company, as a member of FINRA, is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1. This rule requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital , both as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1 (8 to 1 in the initial year of operations) and that equity capital may not be withdrawn if the resulting net capital ratio would exceed 10 to 1. At December 31 , 2023, the Company's net capital was approximately \$729,000, which was approximately \$724,000 in excess of its minimum requirement of approximately \$5,000.

#### **4. Concentration of credit risk**

From time to time, the Company will maintain cash balances in a financial institution that may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") coverage of \$250,000. Management regularly monitors the financial condition of these institutions in order to keep the potential risk to a minimum.

#### **5. Income taxes**

The Company is a single member limited liability company that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. Federal income tax purposes and is included in the Federal, New York State and New York City income tax returns of Sunthay Holdings.
