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 consolidated financial statement is free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

MILLBURN RIDGEFIELD CORPORATION & SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

DECEMBER 31, 2022

# Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

# A. General

Millburn Ridgefield Corporation (the Corporation) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 19, 1982. The Corporation earns commissions and fees as a Commodity Trading Advisor and Commodity Pool Operator and is registered with, and subject to, the regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), an agency of the United States (U.S.) government which regulates most aspects of the commodity futures industry. It is also subject to the rules of the National Futures Association (NFA), an industry self-regulatory organization. In addition, the Corporation is registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as an Investment Adviser and a Broker-Dealer. The Corporation does not carry accounts for customers, receive or hold customer funds, or receive or safe keep customer securities and accordingly is not subject to any of the requirements of SEC Rule 15c3-3.

The Corporation's statement of financial condition is presented on a consolidated basis with Millburn Asia LLC (Asia) and Millburn (Shanghai) Investment Consulting Co., Ltd. (WFOE). Asia is a limited liability company organized in November 2014 under the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act. WFOE is a corporation established in December 2014 under the laws of the People's Republic of China. WFOE is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia.

The Corporation's consolidated statement of financial condition has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), pursuant to the provisions of the *Consolidation* Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification or ASC). The provisions of the *Consolidation* Topic of the Codification require consolidation of entities in different circumstances based on the nature of operating characteristics of the entity. Asia and WFOE are being consolidated with the Corporation due to being wholly owned by the Corporation. The Corporation has a 40% interest in Shanghai Quadrant Asset Management Co. Ltd. (Quadrant) through WFOE. The interest is accounted for as an equity method investment and is not consolidated. See Note 3 for additional information on Quadrant.

The Codification is the single source of U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the consolidated statement of financial condition 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 consolidated statement of financial condition. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and those differences may be material to the consolidated statement of financial condition.

# B. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash of $275,042 held at First Republic Bank (First Republic), $12,090 held at Citibank, investment of $11,154,246 in Dreyfus Treasury Securities Cash Management, a short-term U.S. government securities money market mutual fund held at Bank of New York Mellon and $13,105,600 held through WFOE. WFOE has cash of $12,894,023 at Bank of Communications, investments of $104,473 in HSBC Jintrust Money Market Fund at HSBC Jintrust Fund Management Company, and $107,104 in CIFM Money Market Fund in J.P. Morgan Asset Management China International Fund Management Co., Ltd (CIFM). All money market mutual funds are readily convertible to cash and have an original maturity of 90 days or less.

DECEMBER 31, 2022

# Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

# C. U.S. Government Securities

The Corporation trades U.S. government securities. Investments in U.S. Treasury notes are stated at fair value based on the midpoint of bid/ask quotations reported daily at 3pm EST by Bloomberg.

U.S. Treasury note transactions are recorded on the trade date.

# D. Investments in Sponsored Funds and Other Funds

The Corporation is the general partner, managing owner or managing member of various commodity pools and investment funds (collectively, sponsored funds) formed as limited partnerships, limited liability companies or trusts. As the sponsor, the Corporation exerts significant influence and has a fiduciary responsibility to the sponsored funds and potential liability beyond amounts recognized as an asset in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The Corporation has not consolidated the assets and liabilities of these variable interest entities due to the Corporation not being the primary beneficiary. The maximum exposure to loss on these variable interest entities is the value of the related investments.

Investments in sponsored funds and certain other funds (collectively, funds) are reported in the Corporation's consolidated statement of financial condition at fair value. As a practical expedient, fair value ordinarily represents the Corporation's proportionate share of each fund's net asset value determined for each fund in accordance with such fund's valuation policies and reported at the time of the fund's valuation. Generally, the fair value of the Corporation's investment in another fund represents the amount that the Corporation could reasonably expect to receive from such fund if the Corporation's investment was redeemed at the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition, based on information reasonably available at the time the valuation is made and that the Corporation believes to be reliable.

Investments in other funds include investments in mutual funds that are investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Mutual funds are valued at the net asset value per share on the valuation date as reported by management of the mutual fund.

# E. Foreign Currency Translation

The Corporation's functional currency is the U.S. dollar; however, it transacts business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at quoted prices of such currencies at the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition.

MILLBURN RIDGEFIELD CORPORATION & SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)

DECEMBER 31, 2022

# Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

# F. Revenue Recognition

The Corporation adopted the guidance in ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers* (ASC 606). Following the adoption of ASC 606, the Corporation’s revenue recognition of its contracts with customers remains materially consistent with its historical practice. The Corporation’s policies with respect to its various revenue streams are detailed below.

Management and other fees are received monthly and quarterly, and are recognized as revenue at a point in time at which the services are provided and there are no future obligations or extended payment terms, in accordance with the related limited partnership agreement or other governing agreement. Management fees from sponsored funds are based on a fixed percentage of the sponsored funds’ net asset value. Management fees from managed accounts are based on a fixed percentage of assets under management. The Commission and fees receivable as of January 1, 2022 were $6,234,399.

Incentive fees are earned from the funds at a point in time, usually annually, at which the service is provided to the funds and there are no future performance obligations or extended payment terms.

Pro rata income and profit share allocations are earned from the funds at a point in time, either monthly or annually, based on a percentage of the net profits of the funds, at which there are no future performance obligations or extended payment terms.

# G. Income Taxes

The Corporation has elected S corporation status under the Internal Revenue Code, pursuant to which the Corporation does not pay U.S. Corporate tax on its taxable income. Instead, the stockholders are liable for individual income tax on their share of the Corporation’s taxable income. The Corporation files U.S. federal and state tax returns. The Corporation is subject to income tax for certain states and New York City.

The Corporation provides for income taxes and the related accounts under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect during the year in which the basis differences reverse. Valuation allowances are established when management determines it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The current open tax years are 2019 to 2021.

# H. Furniture, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements

Furniture and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged to operations over the estimated lives of the furniture and equipment, primarily five or seven years, utilizing accelerated methods. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost, net of accumulated amortization. The amortization of the leasehold improvements is charged to operations on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease.

# I. Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Corporation periodically evaluates long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, is recognized if the carrying amount exceeds estimated undiscounted future cash flows. There were no long-lived asset impairment charges recorded in 2022.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)

DECEMBER 31, 2022

# Note 1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

# J. Net Income Allocation

Net income is allocated and distributed to each stockholder on a pro rata basis, based on each stockholder's percentage of shares held.

# K. Receivables and Credit Policies

Receivables are stated in the consolidated statement of financial condition at the amount due from the funds. The Corporation does not have payment terms with these funds as they are all related parties. See Note 2. Investments in Sponsored Funds and Other Funds for dollar amounts owed by certain related parties. The Corporation does not deem it likely that any of the receivables will become uncollectible due to the nature of the relationship; however, management reviews the balances quarterly to ensure any receivables deemed uncollectible are written off. In the opinion of management, at December 31, 2022, all accounts were considered collectible and no allowance was necessary.

# L. Equity Method Investments

Equity method investment is equity interest in entity that the Corporation does not control but over which it can exercise significant influence. The investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 323, *Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures*. Equity method investment is measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus the Corporation's share of the investee's income or loss.

# M. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income consists of two components, net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are recorded as an element of stockholders' equity but are excluded from net income. The Corporation's other comprehensive income is comprised of foreign currency translation gains (losses), net of income tax expenses/benefit.

# **Note 2. INVESTMENTS IN SPONSORED FUNDS AND OTHER FUNDS (CONTINUED)**

As the sponsor, the Corporation conducts and manages the respective businesses of the sponsored funds. The governing documents of the sponsored funds typically require the Corporation, as sponsor, to maintain a specified investment in the respective fund. Such minimum investments generally are 1% of either net assets, total assets or total net contributions or a minimum dollar amount (if greater). In addition, the governing documents for one of the sponsored funds require the Corporation to maintain a minimum net worth equal to an amount determined by the total net contributions made to the entity for which the Corporation serves as the sponsor, not to exceed one million dollars. These requirements are defined in each of the respective governing documents of the sponsored funds and the Corporation is in compliance with all such requirements.

For managing the businesses of the sponsored funds, the Corporation earns management and commission fees based on the terms of the respective governing documents of the sponsored funds. As of December 31, 2022, the Corporation had a receivable of $1,892,848 from the sponsored funds for such fees. The Corporation earns a profit share allocation from certain sponsored funds, which are generally based on 20% of the sponsored fund's trading profits, as specified in the governing documents of the sponsored funds.

The Corporation also receives administrative fees and reimbursements of certain costs from several of the sponsored funds according to the governing documents of the sponsored funds for direct and indirect expenses paid on their behalf by the Corporation. The Corporation records a receivable from the funds when such amount is incurred. As of December 31, 2022, the Corporation had a receivable of $321,565 from the sponsored funds for such administrative expenses.

During 2022, the Corporation also invested in various other funds. At December 31, 2022, the value of such investments is $3,459,137.

The Corporation also has investments in registered investment companies for which it serves as the sub-adviser. Investments in registered investment companies can be redeemed on a daily basis.

Generally, all investments in other funds can be redeemed from the other funds on a monthly basis. In addition, these funds generally attempt to achieve capital appreciation through investing in stocks, futures contracts, forward currency contracts and interest rate instruments.

At December 31, 2022, the Corporation has no explicit unfunded commitments related to its investments in sponsored funds and other funds.

# **Note 4. FAIR VALUE**

Fair value, as defined in the *Fair Value Measurement* Topic of the Codification, is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy, as set forth in the *Fair Value Measurement* Topic of the Codification, prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels: quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1); inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and unobservable inputs for an asset or liability (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure a financial instrument fall within different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the measurement of that financial instrument. The Corporation recognizes transfers between fair value hierarchy levels at the beginning of the reporting period. During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no transfers between fair value hierarchy levels.

The following summarizes the assets held directly by the Corporation accounted for at fair value at December 31, 2022 using the fair value hierarchy:

|  | December 31, 2022 |  |  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Practical Expedient (3) | Total |
| Assets |  |  |  |  |  |
| Short-term money market fund (2) | $11,365,823 | $ - | $ - | $ - | $11,365,823 |
| Investments in sponsored funds (1) | - | - | - | 19,695,956 | 19,695,956 |
| Investments in other funds | 3,248,538 | - | - | 210,599 | 3,459,137 |
| Total | $14,614,361 | $ - | $ - | $19,906,555 | $34,520,916 |

$^{(1)}$ See Note 2 for the fair value of the more significant funds within this category.

$^{(2)}$ Included in cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statement of financial condition.

$^{(3)}$ In accordance with FASB ASC 820-10, the investments in sponsored funds and investments in other funds, that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient, have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amount presented in this table is intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the consolidated statement of financial condition.

# **Note 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS**

The Corporation pays a fee to Millburn International (Europe) LLP (Europe) for providing prospective investors and interested parties with information about the Corporation and its investment and trading strategy.

# Note 6. INVESTING ACTIVITIES AND RELATED RISKS

The Corporation's investments in sponsored funds and other funds are subject to the market and credit risks of futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward currency contracts and other financial instruments traded by the funds (collectively, derivatives). Additionally, the sponsored funds and other funds invest in stocks and United States government securities. The Corporation also invests in United States government securities. As such, the Corporation is exposed, directly and indirectly to the extent of its investments in sponsored funds and other funds, to both market risk, the risk arising from changes in the fair value of the contracts, and credit risk, the risk of failure by another party to perform according to the terms of a contract. The Corporation is subject to the risk of loss to the extent of the fair value of its investments in sponsored funds and other funds and, in certain specific circumstances, distributions, dividends and redemptions received.

For derivatives, risks arise from changes in the fair value of the contracts. Theoretically, the Corporation is exposed, indirectly to the extent of its investments in other funds, to a market risk equal to the notional contract value of futures, forward currency and other derivative contracts purchased and liability on such contracts sold short. In addition, since forward currency contracts are traded in unregulated markets between principals, the Corporation indirectly to the extent of its investments in sponsored funds and other funds, also assumes the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance.

In addition, the Corporation, through its investments in sponsored funds and other funds, is indirectly exposed, to the extent of its investments in other funds, to various trading activities including investments in stocks that are typically traded on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market. The sponsored funds and other funds also sell stock not owned at the time of sale (a short sale). Risks arise from short sales due to the possible illiquidity of the securities markets and from potential adverse movements in stock values. Theoretically, short sales expose the sponsored funds and other funds to potentially unlimited liability as the sponsored funds' and other funds' ultimate obligation to purchase a stock sold short may exceed the amount recorded.

The Corporation directly and indirectly, through its investments in sponsored funds and other funds, is exposed to the extent of its investments, to United States government securities. Risks arise from investments in United States government securities due to possible illiquidity and the potential for default by the issuer. United States government securities are also particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates, economic conditions and conditions specific to the issuer.

Lastly, the Corporation, through its investments in sponsored funds and other funds, invests in certain fund of funds. The Corporation's investments in fund of funds are subject to the market and credit risk of securities and financial instruments held or sold short by these entities.

The Corporation has established procedures to actively monitor market risk and minimize credit risk of its own investing activities, as well as the trading and investing activities of the sponsored funds and other funds. There can be no assurance that the Company will, in fact, succeed in doing so.

# **Note 6. INVESTING ACTIVITIES AND RELATED RISKS (CONTINUED)**

The Corporation maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. Balances on deposit at such financial institutions are frequently in excess of available federal deposit insurance. In the event of a financial institution's insolvency, recovery of the Corporation's assets on deposit may be limited to available federal deposit insurance or other protection afforded such deposits.

Additionally, the Corporation, in its capacity as general partner, managing owner or managing member of the sponsored funds, is subject to certain additional risks of loss and liability for the activities of the sponsored funds.

# **Note 7. LEASE COMMITMENTS**

The Corporation adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019 and recognized leases with duration greater than 12 months on the consolidated statement of financial condition. The Corporation determines at contract inception if an arrangement contains a lease based on whether the Corporation obtains the right to control the use of specifically identifiable property for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Corporation recorded the related Operating lease - right-of-use assets and liabilities at the present value of lease payments over the term. The Corporation estimates its incremental borrowing rate, at lease commencement, to determine the present value of lease payments since the Corporation's leases do not provide an implicit rate of return. The rates used were 5.66% and 7.50%. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Corporation's noncancelable lease for office space in New York, New York expires on June 30, 2029 and the lease for office space in Rye Brook, New York expires on March 31, 2024. The weighted-average remaining lease term is 6.45 years, and the weighted-average discount rate is 5.68%. The future minimum lease payments are as follows:

|  | Operating Lease Payments |
| --- | --- |
| 2023 | $2,111,817 |
| 2024 | 2,099,079 |
| 2025 | 2,139,685 |
| 2026 | 2,139,685 |
| 2027 | 2,139,685 |

| Total Lease Liabilities | $11,547,540 |

# **Note 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

The Corporation has an unconditional irrevocable standby letter of credit with First Republic Bank, which serves as the security deposit for the Corporation's New York City office. Advances under the letter of credit are limited to $1,000,000. The letter of credit will expire May 16, 2023; however, it automatically renews through September 28, 2029, unless written notice is received 60 days prior to the renewal date. Borrowings under the letter of credit are secured by investments in United States government securities held in First Republic Brokerage account. The Corporation did not have any drawdowns under the letter of credit during 2022 and does not have an outstanding balance as of December 31, 2022.

# **Note 9. INDEMNIFICATIONS**

In the normal course of business, the Corporation enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Corporation's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Corporation that have not yet occurred. The Corporation expects the risk of any future obligation under these indemnifications to be remote.

# **Note 10. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN**

The Corporation sponsors a 401(k) profit sharing and savings plan (the Plan) for the benefit of its employees. The Corporation is the administrator of the Plan. Under the terms of the Plan, employees may elect to defer a portion of their compensation and the Corporation may make discretionary contributions to the Plan on behalf of its participants.

# **Note 11. INCOME TAXES**

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Corporation's deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

| Deferred tax asset: |  |
| --- | --- |
| Accounts payable and accrued expenses | $46,530 |

| Deferred tax liability: |  |
