Business and Organization** M Share Capital LLC (the "Company"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Modern Share, Inc., (the "Parent"), is a Delaware limited liability company organized on October 25, 2021. The Company was approved as a registered broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") on September 01, 2022. The Company is approved to engage in private placements, and to operate an alternative trading system for primary offerings and secondary transactions of private securities. #### **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** #### **Basis of Presentation** The financial statement has been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). All amounts are expressed in United States dollars (U.S. dollars) unless otherwise stated. The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statement. #### **Use of Estimates** The preparation of the financial statement requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement. Actual results could differ from those estimates. #### **Cash** In the normal course of business, the Company maintains its cash balances, which may exceed federally insured limits, in at least one financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its depository. #### **Accounts Receivable** Accounts receivable are carried at the amounts billed to customers, net of an allowance for credit losses, which is an estimate for credit losses based on a review of all outstanding amounts. There were no accounts receivable outstanding at December 31, 2022. #### **Allowance for Credit Losses** The allowance for credit losses is based on the Company's expectation of the collectability of financial instruments carried at amortized cost, including accounts receivable utilizing the current expected credit loss framework. The Company's expectation is that the credit risk associated with accounts receivable is that any client with which it conducts business with is unable to fulfill its contractual obligations. Management monitors the credit risk of clients and currently there is not a foreseeable expectation of an event or change which could result in the fees receivable being unpaid based on individual facts and circumstances. The Company considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of balances and current and future economic conditions that may affect the Company's expectation of the collectability in determining the allowance for credit losses. The Company has no allowance for credit losses as of December 31, 2022. {7}------------------------------------------------ Notes to Statement of Financial Condition December 31, 2022 #### **2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** #### **Accounts payable and accrued expenses** The Company records expenses in the period in which they are incurred. #### **Income Taxes** The Company is a single member limited liability company treated as a disregarded entity for income tax purposes and accordingly, no provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements for any federal or state income taxes. All revenue and expenses retain their character and pass directly to the Parent's income tax returns. The Company recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax benefits in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, *Income Taxes*. Under that guidance the Company assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances, and information available at the end of each period. The measurement of unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted when new information is available, or when an event occurs that requires a change. The Company believes that it has no material uncertain income tax positions and accordingly, no liability has been recorded. The Company continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law, and new authoritative rulings. #### **Recent Accounting Standards** Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position. #### **3. Related-Party Transactions** The Company has an administrative services agreement with the Parent. Under the terms of the agreement the Parent may pay on behalf of the Company both direct and shared expenses such as professional fees, shared personnel, shared occupancy, and other expenses.

At December 31, 2022, the Company's net capital amounted to \$271,608 which was \$262,202 in excess of its minimum net capital requirement of \$9,406.
