# REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder's

of GP Nurmenkari, Inc.

# Opinion on the Financial Statement

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial condition of GP Nurmenkari, Inc. as of December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of GP Nurmenkari, Inc. as of December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

# Basis for Opinion

This financial statement is the responsibility of GP Nurmenkari, Inc.'s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on GP Nurmenkari, Inc.'s 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 GP Nurmenkari, Inc. in accordance with the 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. 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 statements. 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 statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

# GP NURMENKARI, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022

# 1. Organization and nature of business

GP Nurmenkari, Inc. (the Company) is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The Company is exempt from SEC customer protection rules under Paragraph (k)(2)(ii) of SEC Rule 15c3-3. The Company is a New York corporation established on January 7, 2010.

# 2. Significant Accounting Policies

# Basic of Presentation

The Company is engaged in a single line of business as a securities broker-dealer, which comprises several classes of services, including private placements of securities, selling corporate debt securities, and retailing corporate equity securities over the counter on a fully disclosed basis through a clearing broker.

# Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

# Revenue Recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers includes fees from investment banking and advisory services. The recognition and measurement of revenue is based on the assessment of individual contract terms. Significant judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time or over time; how to allocate transaction prices where multiple performance obligations are identified; when to recognize revenue based on the appropriate measure of the Company's progress under the contract; whether revenue should be presented gross or net of certain costs; and whether constraints on variable consideration should applied due to uncertain future events.

# GP NURMENKARI, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022

# 2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Other revenues in the Statement of Income includes the following:

| Consulting Fees | $140,000 |
| --- | --- |
| Commission Income | 1,916 |
| Other Income | 60,088 |
| Other revenue per Statement of Income | $202,004 |

The Company provides advisory services (consulting) on mergers and acquisitions. Revenue for advisory arrangements is generally recognized at the point in time that performance under the arrangement is completed (the closing date of the transaction) or the contract is cancelled. However, for certain contracts, revenue is recognized over time for advisory arrangements in which the performance obligations are simultaneously provided by the Company and consumed by the customer. In some circumstances, significant judgment is needed to determine the timing and measure of progress appropriate for revenue recognition under a specific contract. Retainers and other fees received from customers prior to recognizing revenue are reflected as contract liabilities. For the year ended December 31, 2022, no retainers and other fees were received by the Company.

# Statement of Cash Flows

For purpose of Statement of Cash Flows, the Company has defined cash equivalents as highly liquid investments, with original maturities of less than three months that are not held for sale in the ordinary course of business.

# 3. Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts. Funds deposited with a single financial institution are insured up to $250,000 in the aggregate by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). At times, cash balances may exceed FDIC insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

# 4. Commitments and contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may from time to time have legal claims made against it, both asserted and unasserted. The Company believes that, as of December 31, 2022, there are no claims, either asserted or unasserted, that require either to be disclosed herein or to be reserved for in these financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022

# 5. Lease Commitment

The Company leases space on a month-to-month basis at a monthly cost of $1,125.

In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases - (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet to reflect the rights and obligations created by lease agreements, including for those leases classified as operation leases under previous GAAP, along with the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. As the Company's lease is month to month, the Company is recognizing lease expense each month for the amount incurred each month.

# 6. Depreciation

Property and equipment are stated at cost and recorded net of accumulated depreciation using straight line with estimated useful lives of five to seven years.

Property and equipment as of December 31, 2022 consisted of office furniture and equipment at a cost of $1,258. Depreciation expense for the year was $425.

# 7. Net Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Uniform Net Capital Rule (SEC Rule 15c3-1), which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, as defined, shall not exceed 15 to 1, and minimum dollar amount of net capital requirement is $5,000. On December 31, 2022, the Company's minimum capital requirement was $6,330. The company's aggregate indebtedness to net capital ratio was 2.07 to 1 and the Company had net capital of $30,535 which exceeded the minimum required dollar amount by $24,205.

# 8. Income taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as an S corporation. Accordingly, the Company's income and loss is passed through to the Shareholder. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal or state income taxes has been included in the financial statements except for the recently enacted Connecticut entry level taxes.

There are no uncertain tax positions in the Company's tax filings, and there are no current tax audits pending. The Corporate tax returns are open for audit for a period of three years from the date of filing.

# 9. Rule 15C3-3

The Company is exempt from the provisions of Rule 15C3-3 under paragraph (k)(2)(ii) in that the Company carries no margin accounts, promptly transmits all customer funds and delivers all securities received, does not otherwise hold funds or securities for or owe money or securities
