# INDEPENDENCE POINT SECURITIES LLC NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2025

#### NOTE 1 DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Independence Point Securities LLC (the Company) is wholly-owned by Independence Point Advisors (the Parent) and was formed on November 23, 2021. The Company is a registered broker-dealer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

The Company provides investment banking services including merger and acquisition advisory services, equity and debt underwriting group participation and private placements.

# NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

#### Basis of Presentation

This financial statement was prepared under the accounting basis and are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) of the Financial Standards Board (FASB).

# 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 and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

#### Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

Accounts receivable are comprised of net receivables for advisory and underwriting revenue. These accounts receivable are initially recorded at the amount management expects to collect when revenue has been earned and are stated net of an allowance for credit losses. The Company complies with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016- 13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This standard requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The Company evaluates the specific facts and circumstances for each outstanding accounts receivable and determines if an allowance for credit losses is necessary based on historical payment information, known customer financial concerns, credit quality, age of balances and current and future economic conditions that may affect the Companys expectation of the collectability. As of December 31, 2025, the Company determined the allowance for credit losses for uncollectible accounts was \$0.

# Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers amounts held in money market accounts with initial maturities equal to less than three months to be cash equivalents.

# INDEPENDENCE POINT SECURITIES LLC NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2025

#### NOTE 3 BENEFIT PLAN

The Companys employees participate in a defined contribution profit sharing 401(k) retirement plan (the Plan) sponsored by the Parent. The Plan provides participants with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Employees can participate in the Plan on their first day of employment and are able to make contributions up to the limits established by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Contributions by the Company to the Plan are determined by management within Federal tax limits. Pursuant to Plan provisions, the Parent makes a safe harbor non-elective contribution of 3% of eligible compensation to certain participants per calendar year. The Parent may also make an annual discretionary profit-sharing contribution to the Plan for participants.

# NOTE 4 REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS

The Company is a registered broker-dealer and is therefore subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital equal to the greater of \$100,000 or 6-2/3 percent of aggregate indebtedness to net capital not to exceed 15 to 1. Net capital and the related net capital ratio may fluctuate on a daily basis. At December 31, 2025, the Companys net capital was \$7,727,705, which was \$7,627,705 in excess of its minimum requirement of \$100,000.

# NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES

The Company complies with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. There is no impact to the Companys financial statement as the Company is a single member limited liability company and is treated as disregarded entity for federal, state and city income tax purposes; therefore, it does not incur income taxes at the Company level. Instead, its earnings and losses are passed through to the member and included in the calculation of the members tax liability. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statement.

# NOTE 6 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 Pursuant to an administrative service agreement (the "Agreement") between the Company and the Parent, an affiliate, the Parent allocates expenses to the Company based on expenses incurred by the Parent on behalf of the Company related to its daily operations. The expenses associated with the Agreement include compensation and benefits, travel and entertainment, professional fees, occupancy and other. As of December 31, 2025, the Parent owes the Company \$4,472 related to this Agreement as presented on the Statement of Financial Condition.

# INDEPENDENCE POINT SECURITIES LLC NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2025

#### NOTE 7 SEGMENT REPORTING

 The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a broker dealer, which generates the majority of its revenues from investment banking fees including debt and equity capital markets underwriting and strategic advisory services. The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the chief operating decision maker (CODM), who uses net income to evaluate the results of the business and manage the Company. Additionally, the CODM uses excess net capital, which is not a measure of profit and loss, to make operational decisions while maintaining capital adequacy. Excess net capital is measured in accordance with SEC Rule 15c3-1 (See Note 4) and is reconciled to U.S. GAAP measures. The Companys 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 the profit and loss of the segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Segment asset balances are presented in the Statement of Financial Condition.

#### NOTE 8 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 In connection with investment banking activities, the Company may from time to time provide underwriting commitments to clients in connection with capital-raising transactions. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no commitments.

> In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be involved in certain legal actions in connection with its activities as a broker dealer. Management is of the opinion that any claims to which the Company is a party will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial position or operations. At December 31, 2025, no amount has been accrued for any potential or pending claims, as a probable outcome is not determinable at December 31, 2025.

#### NOTE 9 CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

The Company maintains its cash balances in one bank, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. These balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) for up to \$250,000 per depositor. As of December 31, 2025, the Companys uninsured cash balance was \$7,466,422. The Company is subject to credit risk should these financial institutions be unable to fulfill their obligation. No losses have been incurred to date.

#### NOTE 10 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for adjustment to or disclosure in this financial statement through the date of this report and determined that there are no subsequent events requiring adjustments to or disclosure in the financial statement.
