(unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Siebert Financial Corp., a New York corporation, incorporated in 1934, is a holding company that conducts the following lines of business through its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries:

| ● | Muriel Siebert & Co., Inc. (“MSCO”) provides retail brokerage services. MSCO is a Delaware corporation and broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act and the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”), and the National Futures Association (“NFA”).

| ● | Siebert AdvisorNXT, Inc. (“SNXT”) provides investment advisory services. SNXT is a New York corporation registered with the SEC as a Registered Investment Advisor (“RIA”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.

| ● | Park Wilshire Companies, Inc. (“PW”) provides insurance services. PW is a Texas corporation and licensed insurance agency.

| ● | Siebert Technologies, LLC (“STCH”) provides technology development. STCH is a Nevada limited liability company.

| ● | RISE Financial Services, LLC (“RISE”) is a Delaware limited liability company and a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and NFA.

| ● | StockCross Digital Solutions, Ltd. (“STXD”) is an inactive subsidiary headquartered in Bermuda.

For purposes of thi s Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “Siebert,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Siebert Financial Corp., MSCO, SNXT, PW, STCH, RISE, and STXD collectively, unless the context otherwise requires.

The Company is headquartered in Miami Beach, FL with primary operations in Florida, New Jersey, and California. The Company has 12 branch offices throughout the U.S. and clients around the world. The Company’s SEC filings are available through the Company’s website at www.siebert.com, where investors can obtain copies of the Company’s public filings free of charge. The Company’s common stock, par value $.01 per share, trades on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “SIEB.”

The Company primarily operates in the securities brokerage and asset management industry and has no other reportable segments. All of the Company’s revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were derived from its operations in the U.S.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company is comprised of a single operating segment based on the factors related to management’s decision-making framework as well as management evaluating performance and allocating resources based on assessments of the Company from a consolidated perspective.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) of the Company have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of the Company and numbers are rounded for presentation purposes.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring entries) necessary to fairly present such interim results. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which may be expected for a full year or any subsequent period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of Siebert and its wholly-owned and majority-owned consolidated subsidiaries. Upon consolidation, all intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. For the period of March 31, 2022 to October 18, 2022, the Company determined that RISE was a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company was the primary beneficiary. As discussed in more detail in Note 4 – RISE, as of October 18, 2022, the Company’s ownership in RISE increased to 68% and therefore, the Company continued to consolidate RISE under the voting interest model (“VOE model”). The Company’s ownership in RISE remained 68% as of September 30, 2023.

For consolidated subsidiaries that are not wholly-owned, the third-party holdings of equity interests are referred to as noncontrolling interests. The net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for such subsidiaries is presented as net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the statements of operations. The portion of total equity that is attributable to noncontrolling interests for such subsidiaries is presented as noncontrolling interests in the statements of financial condition.

- 5 -

For investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest but has significant influence over its operating and financial decisions, the Company applies the equity method of accounting with net income and losses recorded in earnings of equity method investment in related party.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are included in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, there were no significant changes made to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

2. New Accounting Standards

The Company did not adopt any new accounting standards during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. In addition, the Company has evaluated other recently issued accounting standards and does not believe that any of these standards will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures as of September 30, 2023.

3. Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection

In 2021 and 2022, the Company entered into agreements and subsequent reorganization agreements and termination agreements with Tigress Holdings, LLC (“Tigress”) and Hedge Connection, LLC (“Hedge Connection”). Refer to Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K and Note 12 – Equity Method Investment in Related Party in this Report for more detail on these transactions and information that impacted the periods presented.

On January 21, 2022, the Company purchased Hedge Connection for $1,000,000, of which $400,000 was noncash consideration and $600,000 was a note payable. The Company paid off $350,000 of its note payable to Hedge Connection during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

On July 10, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Redemption Agreement with Cynthia DiBartolo, CEO of Tigress, pursuant to which the Company repurchased from Ms. DiBartolo one million shares of its common stock held by Ms. DiBartolo in exchange for conveying to Ms. DiBartolo the Company’s 17% interest in Tigress. Refer to Siebert’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 14, 2023, incorporated herein by reference, and Note 12 – Equity Method Investment in Related Party in this Report for more detail on these transactions and information that impacted the periods presented.

4. RISE

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, RISE issued and Siebert sold membership interests in RISE to certain employees, directors, and affiliates of RISE and Siebert.

From January 1, 2022 through March 30, 2022, RISE issued 8.3% of RISE’s total issued and outstanding membership interests in exchange for a net increase in assets of $1,000,000. Siebert sold membership interests representing 2% of RISE’s total issued and outstanding membership interests to Siebert employees.

On March 31, 2022, Siebert exchanged $2,880,000 in aggregate of notes payable to Gloria E. Gebbia for 24% ownership interest in RISE. As a result, Siebert’s direct ownership percentage in RISE declined from 76% as of December 31, 2021 to approximately 44% as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, Siebert determined that RISE was a VIE and that Siebert was the primary beneficiary, requiring RISE to be consolidated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 – Consolidation.

As a result of transactions described in Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection, Siebert’s ownership in RISE increased to 68%, and therefore Siebert continued to consolidate RISE from October 18, 2022 through December 31, 2022 under the VOE model. There have been no further transactions completed by the Company related to RISE’s membership interests for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, RISE reported assets of $1.4 million and no liabilities. As of December 31, 2022, RISE reported assets of $1.3 million and liabilities of $0.1 million. There are no restrictions on RISE’s assets.

5. Kakaopay Transaction

On April 27, 2023, Siebert entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Kakaopay (the “First Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Siebert agreed to issue to Kakaopay Corporation (“Kakaopay”), a company established under the Laws of the Republic of Korea and a fintech subsidiary of Korean-based conglomerate Kakao Corp., 8,075,607 shares of Siebert’s common stock (the “First Tranche Shares” and, such transaction, the “First Tranche”) at a per share price of Two Dollars Fifteen Cents ($2.15), which represented 19.9% of the outstanding equity securities of Siebert on a fully diluted basis (taking into account the issuance of the First Tranche Shares). The First Tranche closed on May 18, 2023.

- 6 -

Concurrent with the execution of the First Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, Siebert and Kakaopay entered into a second Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement” and, together with the First Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, the “Stock Purchase Agreements”), pursuant to which Siebert agreed to issue to Kakaopay an additional 25,756,470 shares of Siebert’s common stock (the “Second Tranche Shares” and, such transaction, the “Second Tranche”) at a per share price of Two Dollars Thirty Five Cents ($2.35), so that Kakaopay will own 51% of the outstanding equity securities of Siebert on a fully diluted basis (taking into account the issuance of the First Tranche Shares and the Second Tranche Shares). The consummation of the Second Tranche is subject to a number of conditions, which have not yet been satisfied as of the date of this Report. The conditions to Kakaopay’s obligation to close the Second Tranche include, among others, (i) the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Siebert’s common stock and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Siebert’s common stock not beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by certain family members related to Directors John J. Gebbia and Gloria E. Gebbia (“Gebbia Stockholders”), Kakaopay or any of their respective affiliates, (ii) approval by FINRA, (iii) favorable completion of the review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”), (iv) certain performance conditions relating to order execution and the execution of employment and consulting agreements for key personnel of Siebert and MSCO, (v) the approvals in connection to the filing of an overseas direct investment report as required under the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act of the Republic of Korea, and, if applicable in accordance with applicable law, any antitrust report or filing with the Korea Fair Trade Commission shall have been obtained or provided, (vi) the listing by Siebert of the Second Tranche Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, (vii) the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of Siebert as of the closing of the Second Tranche, (viii) the absence of any material adverse effect having occurred with respect to Siebert between April 27, 2023 and the closing of the Second Tranche, and (ix) the performance by Siebert of all covenants, agreements and obligations required to be performed by it prior to the closing of the Second Tranche. The conditions to Siebert’s obligation to close the Second Tranche include, among others, (i) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Siebert’s common stock not beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the Gebbia Stockholders, Kakaopay or any of their respective affiliates, (ii) approval by FINRA, (iii) favorable completion of the review by CFIUS, (iv) the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of Kakaopay as of the closing of the Second Tranche, (v) the absence of any material adverse effect having occurred with respect to Kakaopay between April 27, 2023 and the closing of the Second Tranche, and (vi) the performance by Kakaopay of all covenants, agreements and obligations required to be performed by it prior to the closing of the Second Tranche. Refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 3, 2023, incorporated herein by reference, for further detail regarding this transaction.

Since the closing of the First Tranche, Korean authorities have taken action against Kakaopay, its parent company, Kakao Corp., and their affiliates. In addition, Kakao Corp., recently announced that it will establish an independent compliance committee for Kakao Corp. and its subsidiaries to address what it described as the current crisis at Kakao Corp. and its subsidiaries. Siebert believes these events have had a material adverse effect on both Kakaopay and its ability to perform its obligations under the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated therein. Accordingly, on November 11, 2023, Siebert delivered a notice to Kakaopay stating that a material adverse effect had occurred with respect to Kakaopay and that, as a result, Siebert’s conditions to closing will not be satisfied. The notice also specified that Kakaopay has indicated that it has no intention of satisfying the conditions precedent to Siebert preparing the proxy statement contemplated by the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement. Siebert is considering its rights and obligations under the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, including evaluating whether and under what circumstances the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement might be terminated, and has reserved all of its rights and remedies, including Siebert’s right to assert that Kakaopay has materially breached a number of covenants in the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement. On November 12, 2023, Kakaopay delivered a letter in response to the notice that expressed Kakaopay’s disagreement with the statements in the notice. As a result of the foregoing, Siebert has incurred and may incur additional legal expenses evaluating these matters, the amount of which is uncertain as of the date hereof.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company capitalized deferred issuance costs related to this transaction of $318,000, which was recorded within the line item “Prepaid expenses and other assets” in the statements of financial condition. At the time of the issuance, the total deferred issuance cost of $1,907,000 related to this transaction was reclassified as a reduction to “Additional paid-in capital” in stockholders’ equity in the statements of financial condition. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $1,589,000 of issuance costs related to this transaction.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred deferred issuance costs related to the Second Tranche of $58,000, which was recorded within the line item “Prepaid expenses and other assets” in the statements of financial condition.

On May 22, 2023, Gloria E. Gebbia issued a warrant to BCW Securities LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BCW”), to purchase 403,780 shares of common stock of the Company held by Ms. Gebbia at an exercise price of $2.15 per share. Ms. Gebbia issued the warrant pursuant to that certain agreement, dated March 27, 2023, by and among Ms. Gebbia, the Company and BCW relating to the investment by Kakaopay in the Company.

The resulting asset of RISE and liability of MSCO is eliminated in consolidation. The Company terminated its clearing relationships with GSCO and Pershing in 2022.

In February 2022, the Company entered into a Consulting Services Agreement (“CSA”) with the technology partner, whereby the Company would provide certain consulting services over an 18-month period.

Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The following table represents information for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and displays the carrying value after measurement as of the periods indicated. The fair value measurement is nonrecurring as these assets are measured at fair value only when there is a triggering event (e.g., an evidence of impairment). Assets included in the table are those that were impaired during the respective reporting periods and that are still held as of the reporting date. The estimated fair values for these amounts were determined using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The fair value of the Company’s investment in Tigress was determined using observed current market prices of Tigress’ membership interests that were below the Company’s carrying value of its equity investment in Tigress. Following the 2023 transaction discussed in Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection, the Company had no remaining interest in Tigress.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Carried at Fair Value

The following represents financial instruments in which the ending balances as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are not carried at fair value in the statements of financial condition:

Short-term financial instruments: The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents as well as cash and securities segregated for regulatory purposes, are recorded at amounts that approximate the fair value of these instruments. These financial instruments generally expose the Company to limited credit risk and have no stated maturities or have short-term maturities and carry interest rates that approximate market rates. The Company had no cash equivalents for regulatory purposes as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Securities segregated for regulatory purposes consist solely of U.S. government securities and are included in the fair value hierarchy table above. Cash and cash equivalents and cash and securities segregated for regulatory purposes are classified as level 1.

Receivables and other assets: Receivables from customers, receivables from non-customers, receivables from and deposits with broker-dealers and clearing organizations, other receivables, and prepaid expenses and other assets are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value and are classified as level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The Company may hold cash equivalents related to rent deposits in prepaid expenses and other assets that are categorized as level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

Securities borrowed and securities loaned: Securities borrowed and securities loaned are recorded at amounts which approximate fair value and are primarily classified as level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s securities borrowed and securities loaned balances represent amounts of equity securities borrow and loan contracts and are marked-to-market daily in accordance with standard industry practices which approximate fair value.

Investments, cost: The Company’s non-marketable equity securities are investments in privately held companies without readily determinable market values due to the absence of quoted market prices, the inherent lack of liquidity and the fact that inputs used to measure fair value are unobservable and require management’s judgment. As there is no readily determinable fair value, the carrying amount of these investments minus impairment approximates the fair value. The cost will be adjusted upwards or downwards in accordance with observable market transactions. Under the fair value hierarchy, investments, cost is classified as level 3.

Payables: Payables to customers, payables to non-customers, drafts payable, payables to broker-dealers and clearing organizations, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and taxes payable are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and are classified as level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

Deferred contract incentive: The carrying amount of the deferred contract incentive approximates fair value due to the relative short-term nature of the liability. Under the fair value hierarchy, the deferred contract incentive is classified as level 2.

Long-term debt: The carrying amount of the mortgage with East West Bank approximates fair value as it reflects terms that approximate current market terms for similar arrangements. Under the fair value hierarchy, the mortgage is classified as level 2.

Transaction with Tigress

On November 16, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Tigress and a subsequent reorganization agreement with Tigress on October 18, 2022. Refer to Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K for further detail.

As a result of the reorganization agreement with Tigress on October 18, 2022, the Company’s ownership interest of Tigress decreased from 24% to 17%. Based on the level of the Company’s ownership of Tigress, the Company concluded that it was still able to exercise significant influence over Tigress following the reorganization agreement. Therefore, the Company continued to account for this investment under the equity method of accounting through the Company’s sale of its interest in Tigress on July 10, 2023.

The Company has accounted for the Share Redemption Agreement as a sale of a financial asset in accordance with ASC 860. As the one million shares of Company common stock that the Company received from Ms. DiBartolo had a fair value equal to the fair value of the Company’s 17% interest in Tigress sold to Ms. DiBartolo, no gain or loss was recognized as a result of the transaction. Following the transaction, the Company had no remaining interest in Tigress.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the loss recognized from the Company’s investment in Tigress was $0 and $148,000, respectively.

Refer to Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Company’s 2022 Form 10-K for detail on the Company’s primary sources of revenue and the corresponding accounting treatment. Information related to items that impact certain revenue streams within the periods presented is shown below.

Principal Transactions and Proprietary Trading

In 2022, the Company invested in treasury bill and treasury notes, which are primarily in the line item “Cash and securities segregated for regulatory purposes” on the statements of financial condition, in order to enhance its yield on its excess 15c3-3 deposits. During 2022, there was an increase in U.S. government securities yields, which created an unrealized loss on the Company’s U.S. government securities portfolio. The Company continuously invests in treasury bills and treasury notes as part of its normal operations to meet deposit requirements. The aggregate unrealized loss on the portfolio of approximately $1.3 million as of September 30, 2023 will be returned over the duration of the government securities, at a point no later than the maturity of the securities. Refer to Note 8 – Fair Value Measurements for additional detail.

18. Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of federal and state taxes, as applicable, in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that it expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments as necessary. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has concluded that its deferred tax assets are realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis with the with the exception of investments that are expected to generate a capital loss when realized and certain state net operating losses.

The effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily related to the benefit from the reversal of the uncertain tax position related to the 2018 amended tax return due to the expiration of the statute of limitations and certain permanent tax differences and state and local taxes.

As of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an uncertain tax position of $1,596,000 related to various tax matters, which is included in the line item “Taxes payable” in the statements of financial condition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion provides a narrative of our financial performance and condition that should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related notes included under Part I, Item 1 of this Report. In addition to our historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in our 2022 Form 10-K, particularly in Part I, Item 1A – Risk Factors.

Overview

We are a financial services company and provide a wide variety of financial services to our clients. We operate in business lines such as retail brokerage, investment advisory, insurance, and technology development through our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries.

Results in the businesses in which we operate are highly correlated to general economic conditions and, more specifically, to the direction of the U.S. equity and fixed-income markets. Market volatility, overall market conditions, interest rates, economic, political, and regulatory trends, and industry competition are among the factors which could affect us and which are unpredictable and beyond our control. These factors affect the financial decisions made by market participants who include investors and competitors, impacting their level of participation in the financial markets. In addition, in periods of reduced financial market activity, profitability is likely to be adversely affected because certain expenses remain relatively fixed, including salaries and related costs, as well as portions of communications costs and occupancy expenses. Accordingly, earnings for any period should not be considered representative of earnings to be expected for any other period.

Transaction with Kakaopay

On April 27, 2023, Siebert entered into the First Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Siebert agreed to issue to Kakaopay the First Tranche Shares at a per share price of Two Dollars Fifteen Cents ($2.15), which represented 19.9% of the outstanding equity securities of Siebert on a fully diluted basis (taking into account the issuance of the First Tranche Shares). The First Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement closed on May 18, 2023.

Concurrent with the execution of the First Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, Siebert and Kakaopay entered into the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Siebert agreed to issue to Kakaopay the Second Tranche Shares at a per share price of Two Dollars Thirty Five Cents ($2.35), so that Kakaopay will own 51% of the outstanding equity securities of Siebert on a fully diluted basis (taking into account the issuance of the First Tranche Shares and the Second Tranche Shares). The consummation of the Second Tranche is subject to a number of conditions, which have not yet been satisfied as of the date of this Report. Refer to Note 5 – Kakaopay Transaction for further detail regarding these conditions.

Concurrent with the consummation of the First Tranche, Siebert, Kakaopay, and the Gebbia Stockholders entered into a Stockholders’ Agreement (the “Stockholders’ Agreement”) whereby the parties agreed that Siebert’s Board of Directors would consist of seven directors. The parties agreed that following the consummation of the First Tranche, one of the seven directors would be designated by Kakaopay, and six (the “Gebbia Directors”) would be nominated by the Gebbia Stockholders, of whom three shall be independent directors.

Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement, on May 24, 2023, the Board of Directors appointed Shin Ho-cheol, also known as Simon Shin, to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors at that time also appointed John J. Gebbia as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

Concurrent with the consummation of the First Tranche, Siebert and Kakaopay entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) whereby Siebert agreed to grant Kakaopay certain registration rights with respect to certain securities of Siebert held by Kakaopay. In exchange for such registration rights, the parties agreed to a lock-up period ending the earlier of the outside date pursuant to the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement and the date that such agreement is terminated.

- 20 -

As of the date of this Report, prior to the close of the Second Tranche, the Gebbia Stockholders are collectively Siebert’s largest stockholders, controlling approximately 43% of Siebert’s outstanding equity securities, under the Stockholders’ Agreement, holding the right to appoint six (6) of Siebert’s seven (7)-member Board of Directors. As discussed above, Kakaopay currently has the right to appoint the seventh director, and exercised that right through the appointment of Simon Shin to the Company’s Board of Directors on May 24, 2023. Upon the closing of the Second Tranche, Kakaopay will own approximately 51% of Siebert’s outstanding equity securities and will have the right to appoint four (4) out of seven (7) directors of the Company’s Board of Directors, while the Gebbia Stockholders will have the right to appoint the remaining three (3) directors. Pursuant to the Stockholders’ Agreement, at all times, three (3) of the seven (7) directors of the Company’s Board of Directors are required to be independent directors in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605. Refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 3, 2023, incorporated herein by reference, for further detail regarding this transaction.

Since the closing of the First Tranche, Korean authorities have taken action against Kakaopay, its parent company, Kakao Corp., and their affiliates. In addition, Kakao Corp., recently announced that it will establish an independent compliance committee for Kakao Corp. and its subsidiaries to address what it described as the current crisis at Kakao Corp. and its subsidiaries. Siebert believes these events have had a material adverse effect on both Kakaopay and its ability to perform its obligations under the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated therein. Accordingly, on November 11, 2023, Siebert delivered a notice to Kakaopay stating that a material adverse effect had occurred with respect to Kakaopay and that, as a result, Siebert’s conditions to closing will not be satisfied. The notice also specified that Kakaopay has indicated that it has no intention of satisfying the conditions precedent to Siebert preparing the proxy statement contemplated by the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement. Siebert is considering its rights and obligations under the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, including evaluating whether and under what circumstances the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement might be terminated, and has reserved all of its rights and remedies, including Siebert’s right to assert that Kakaopay has materially breached a number of covenants in the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement. On November 12, 2023, Kakaopay delivered a letter in response to the notice that expressed Kakaopay’s disagreement with the statements in the notice. As a result of the foregoing, Siebert has incurred and may incur additional legal expenses evaluating these matters, the amount of which is uncertain as of the date hereof.

RISE

RISE was an institutional brokerage for which all its revenue producing customers transitioned to other prime service providers by the first quarter of 2022. The expenses associated with the transition resulted in a loss of $0.2 million and $0.9 million for RISE for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. During 2022, there were various transactions involving the ownership of RISE. Refer to Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection and Note 4 – RISE for additional detail.

As part of this transition, Siebert had an agreement with JonesTrading Institutional Service, LLC (“JonesTrading”) whereby JonesTrading pays RISE a percentage of the net revenue produced by certain historical clients of RISE less any related expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, this agreement resulted in pre-tax income of $78,000 and $61,000, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, this agreement resulted in pre-tax income of $232,000 and $137,000, respectively. We do not anticipate the pre-tax income related to this agreement will offset the reduction in pre-tax income from customers that have transitioned to other prime service providers.

Management is assessing the future strategic direction of RISE, taking into consideration current market conditions, demand trends, and resources. While we believe our expertise and industry relationships will enable us to execute a new strategic direction, our business plan for RISE is untested, and it is uncertain whether our efforts will attract the customers and revenue necessary to compete in the market.

Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection

Siebert and RISE engaged in certain transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection to exchange equity, cash, and respective leadership positions. Based upon the strategic direction of these ventures, management of the respective businesses decided to unwind the original transactions with these entities. See Note 3 – Transactions with Tigress and Hedge Connection and Note 12 – Equity Method Investment in Related Party for further detail.

Interest Rates

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. Such changes in interest rates primarily impact revenue from interest, marketing, and distribution fees. The Company primarily earns interest, marketing and distribution fees from margin interest charged on clients’ margin balances, interest on cash and securities segregated for regulatory purposes, and distribution fees from money market mutual funds in clients’ accounts. Securities segregated for regulatory purposes consist solely of U.S. government securities. If prices of U.S. government securities within our portfolio decline, we anticipate the impact to be temporary as we intend to hold our U.S. government securities portfolio to maturity. We seek to mitigate this risk by managing the average maturities of our U.S. government securities portfolio and setting risk parameters for securities owned, at fair value.

Client Account and Activity Metrics

The following tables set forth metrics we use in analyzing our client account and activity trends for the periods indicated. For the periods presented, there were no institutional client accounts or client activity metrics.

Statements of Operations and Financial Condition

Statements of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

Revenue

Commissions and fees for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $1,986,000 and increased by $236,000 from the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to market conditions.

Interest, marketing and distribution fees for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $7,194,000 and increased by $1,990,000 from the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to rising interest rates that resulted in an increase in margin interest income and interest income received on U.S. government securities and bank deposits.

Principal transactions and proprietary trading for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $3,753,000 and increased by $2,800,000 from the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to the factors discussed below.

The increase in realized and unrealized gain on primarily riskless principal transactions was primarily due to market conditions. The increase in unrealized gain on our portfolio of U.S. government securities was due to the following. We invested in 1-year treasury bills and 2-year treasury notes in order to enhance our yield on excess 15c3-3 deposits. During 2022, there was an increase in U.S. government securities yields, which created an unrealized loss on our U.S. government securities portfolio. In 2023, we began to record the reversal of the unrealized loss resulting in an unrealized gain due to the securities coming closer to maturity. We continually invest in US government securities based on market yields and cash needs.

We intend to hold our U.S. government securities portfolio to maturity and as such, the aggregate unrealized loss of $1.3 million as of September 30, 2023 will be returned over the duration of the government securities, at a point no later than the maturity of the securities, the latest maturity being April 2025. If the value of our portfolio of U.S. government securities declines further, we will incur further unrealized losses; however, we anticipate this loss to be temporary as we intend to hold our portfolio of U.S. government securities to maturity. We believe that the level invested reduces the risk of having to liquidate the securities prior to maturity.

Below is a summary of the change in the principal transactions and proprietary trading line item for the periods presented.

|  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | Increase (Decrease) |

As further discussed in Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation, we consolidate RISE’s financial results into our financial statements and reflect the portion of RISE not held by Siebert as a noncontrolling interests in our financial statements. The net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $4,000, and decreased by $81,000 from the corresponding period in the prior year, due to more expenses in RISE in 2022 associated with the exiting of the prime brokerage business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We expect to use our available cash, cash equivalents, and potential future borrowings under our debt agreements and potential issuance of new debt or equity, to support and invest in our core business, including investing in new ways to serve our customers, potentially seeking strategic acquisitions to leverage existing capabilities, and for general capital needs (including capital, deposit, and collateral requirements imposed by regulators and SROs). Based on our current level of operations, we believe our available cash, available lines of credit, overall access to capital markets, and cash provided by operations will be adequate to meet our current liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. As of the date of this Report, other than the items detailed in the section below, there are no known or material events that would require us to use large amounts of our liquid assets to cover expenses.

Kakaopay

The net capital infusion from Kakaopay to Siebert from the First Tranche was approximately $15.4 million after the issuance cost. This capital is currently being used to enhance our regulatory capital, and is primarily invested in U.S. government securities and is in the line item “Securities owned, at fair value” on the statements of financial condition. The capital to be raised from the close of the Second Tranche is approximately $60.4 million. The consummation of the Second Tranche is subject to a number of conditions, which have not yet been satisfied as of the date of this Report. Refer to Note 5 – Kakaopay Transaction for further detail regarding these conditions. Refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 3, 2023, incorporated herein by reference, for further detail regarding this transaction.

The net capital from the First Tranche provides Siebert with additional liquidity and the ability to expand its various business lines. Siebert’s current management intends to utilize the additional capital primarily to launch correspondent clearing, to expand its securities lending business, corporate services, order flow opportunities, and other initiatives.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our cash and cash equivalents were $4.9 million and $23.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Debt Agreements

We have a $4.3 million mortgage outstanding with East West Bank, and an unutilized loan for short term overnight demand borrowing of up to $25 million with BMO Harris as of September 30, 2023.

Shelf Registration Statement

On February 18, 2022, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that was declared effective on March 2, 2022 by the SEC for the potential offering, issuance and sale by Siebert of up to $100.0 million of our common stock, preferred stock, warrants to purchase our common stock and/or preferred stock, units consisting of all or some of these securities and subscription rights to purchase all or some of these securities. The registration statement was filed in reliance on General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3, which imposes a limitation on the maximum amount of securities that we may sell pursuant to the registration statement during any twelve-month period. Assuming we remain subject to General Instruction I.B.6, at the time we sell securities pursuant to the registration statement, the amount of securities to be sold plus the amount of any securities we have sold during the prior twelve months in reliance on Instruction I.B.6 may not exceed one-third of the aggregate market value of our outstanding common stock held by non-affiliates as of a day during the 60 days immediately preceding such sale as computed in accordance with Instruction I.B.6. Whether we sell securities under the registration statement will depend on a number of factors, including the market conditions at that time, our cash position at that time and the availability and terms of alternative sources of capital.

At the Market Offering

On May 27, 2022, we entered into a Capital on DemandTM Sales Agreement with JonesTrading as agent, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time through JonesTrading, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering amount of up to $9.6 million under our shelf registration statement on Form S-3. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we did not sell any shares pursuant to this Sales Agreement. Refer to Note 21 – Commitments, Contingencies, and Other for additional detail.

Net Capital, Reserve Accounts, Segregation of Funds, and Other Regulatory Requirements

MSCO is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rules of the SEC (Rule 15c3-1) and the Customer Protection Rule (15c3-3) of the Exchange Act and maintains capital and segregated cash reserves in excess of regulatory requirements. Requirements under these regulations may vary; however, MSCO has adequate reserves and contingency funding plans in place to sufficiently meet any regulatory requirements. In addition to net capital requirements, as a self-clearing broker-dealer, MSCO is subject to cash deposit and collateral requirements with clearing houses, such as the DTCC and OCC, which may fluctuate significantly from time to time based upon the nature and size of clients’ trading activity and market volatility. RISE, as a member of FINRA, is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 and the corresponding regulatory capital requirements.

MSCO can transfer funds to Siebert as long as MSCO maintains its liquidity and regulatory capital requirements. RISE can transfer funds to its shareholders, of which Siebert is entitled to its proportional ownership interest, as long as RISE maintains its liquidity and regulatory capital requirements. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, MSCO and RISE had sufficient net capital to meet their respective liquidity and regulatory capital requirements. Refer to Note 19 – Capital Requirements for more detail about our capital requirements.

Cash Flows

Cash provided by and used in operating activities consisted of net income (loss) adjusted for certain non-cash items. Net operating assets and liabilities at any specific point in time are subject to many variables, including variability in customer activity, the timing of cash receipts and payments, and vendor payment terms. The total changes in our statements of cash flows, especially our operating cash flow, are not necessarily indicative of the ongoing results of our business as we have customer assets and liabilities on our statements of financial condition.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had negative operating cash flow primarily due to the net change in receivables and payables to customers and non-customers as well as the net change in securities borrowed and securities loaned. We had investing cash outflows primarily from the build out of the Miami office building and development work related to technology initiatives. We had financing cash inflows primarily due to the Kakaopay transaction partially offset by the repayment of our loan with East West Bank.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had negative operating cash flow primarily due to the net change in receivables and payables to customers and non-customers as well as the net change in securities borrowed and securities loaned. We had investing cash outflows primarily from the build out of the Miami office building and development work related to technology initiatives. We had financing cash outflows related the repayment of a note payable – related party, partially offset by the issuance and transfer of RISE membership interests.

Long Term Contracts

Effective August 1, 2021, MSCO entered into an amendment to its clearing agreement with NFS that, among other things, extends the term of their arrangement for an additional four-year period commencing on August 1, 2021 and ending July 31, 2025. Refer to Note 16 – Deferred Contract Incentive and Note 21 – Commitments, Contingencies and Other for additional detail.

Effective June 2023, MSCO entered into an amendment to its service agreement with Broadridge Securities Processing Solutions, LLC that, among other things, extends the term of their arrangement for a five-year period ending June 2028, with an option to terminate after three years. The total minimum expense for this arrangement is estimated at approximately $1.3 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We enter into various transactions to meet the needs of customers, conduct trading activities, and manage market risks and are, therefore, subject to varying degrees of market and credit risk. In the normal course of business, our customer activities involve the execution, settlement, and financing of various customer securities transactions. These activities may expose us to off-balance sheet risk in the event the customer or other broker is unable to fulfill their contracted obligations and we are forced to purchase or sell the financial instrument underlying the contract at a loss. There were no material losses for unsettled customer transactions for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Refer to Note 20 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk for additional detail.

Uncertain Tax Positions

We account for uncertain tax positions in accordance with the authoritative guidance issued under ASC 740-10, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. We may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740-10 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements.

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the provision for income taxes line on the statements of operations. Accrued interest and penalties would be included on the related tax liability line on the statements of financial condition.

As of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an uncertain tax position of $1,596,000 related to various tax matters, which is included in the line item “Taxes payable” in the statements of financial condition.

Critical Accounting Policies

Certain of our accounting policies that involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity are discussed in Part I, Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2022 Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2023, there have been no changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates.

We generally invest our cash and cash equivalents temporarily in dollar denominated bank account(s). These investments are not subject to material changes in value due to interest rate movements.

We invest cash and securities segregated for regulatory purposes in dollar denominated bank accounts which are not subject to material changes in value due to interest rate movements. We also invest cash and securities segregated for regulatory purposes and securities owned, at fair value in U.S. government securities which may be subject to material changes in value due to interest rate movements. Securities owned, at fair value invested in U.S. government securities are generally purchased to enhance yields on required regulatory deposits. While the value of the government securities may be subject to material changes in value, we believe any reduction in value would be temporary since the securities would mature at par value.

Customer transactions are cleared through clearing brokers on a fully disclosed basis and are also self-cleared by MSCO. If customers do not fulfill their contractual obligations any loss incurred in connection with the purchase or sale of securities at prevailing market prices to satisfy customer obligations may be incurred by Siebert. We regularly monitor the activity in customer accounts for compliance with margin requirements. We are exposed to the risk of loss on unsettled customer transactions if customers and other counterparties are unable to fulfill their contractual obligations. There were no material losses for unsettled customer transactions in the last five years.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President / Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President / Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Executive Vice President / Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on its evaluation, our management, including our Executive Vice President / Chief Financial Officer, concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is party to certain claims, suits and complaints arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of our management, as of the date of this Report, all such matters are without merit, or involve amounts which would not have a significant effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, investors should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors in our 2022 Form 10-K and under Part II, Item 1A. of our Form 10-Qs. Each of such risk factors could materially affect our business, financial position, and results of operations. As of the date of this Report, other than the supplemental risk factors provided below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our 2022 Form 10-K.

There may be a limited public market for our common stock; Volatility.

12,959,556 shares of our common stock, or approximately 33% of our shares of our common stock outstanding, are currently held by non-affiliates as of November 10, 2023. A stock with a small number of shares held by non-affiliates, known as the “float,” will generally be more volatile than a stock with a large float. Although our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market, there can be no assurance that an active public market will continue.

The Closing of the Second Tranche with Kakaopay is subject to a number of closing conditions, including various regulatory approvals, and there can be no assurance that such conditions will be satisfied or that the Second Tranche will close.

The consummation of the Second Tranche of the investment in Siebert by Kakaopay is subject to a number of conditions, which have not yet been satisfied as of the date of this Report. The conditions to Kakaopay’s obligation to close the Second Tranche include, among others, (i) the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Siebert’s common stock and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Siebert’s common stock not beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the Gebbia Stockholders, Kakaopay or any of their respective affiliates, (ii) approval by FINRA, (iii) favorable completion of the review by CFIUS, (iv) certain performance conditions relating to order execution and the execution of employment and consulting agreements for key personnel of Siebert and MSCO, (v) the approvals in connection to the filing of an overseas direct investment report as required under the Foreign Exchange Transactions Act of the Republic of Korea, and, if applicable in accordance with applicable law, any antitrust report or filing with the Korea Fair Trade Commission shall have been obtained or provided; (vi) the listing by Siebert of the Second Tranche Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market, (vii) the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of Siebert as of the closing of the Second Tranche, (viii) the absence of any material adverse effect having occurred with respect to Siebert between April 27, 2023 and the closing of the Second Tranche, and (ix) the performance by Siebert of all covenants, agreements and obligations required to be performed by it prior to the closing of the Second Tranche. The conditions to Siebert’s obligation to close the Second Tranche include, among others, (i) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Siebert’s common stock not beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by the Gebbia Stockholders, Kakaopay or any of their respective affiliates, (ii) approval by FINRA, (iii) favorable completion of the review by CFIUS, (iv) the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of Kakaopay as of the closing of the Second Tranche, (v) the absence of any material adverse effect having occurred with respect to Kakaopay between April 27, 2023 and the closing of the Second Tranche, and (vi) the performance by Kakaopay of all covenants, agreements and obligations required to be performed by it prior to the closing of the Second Tranche. There can be no assurance that any or all of the conditions necessary to close the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement will be satisfied or that the Second Tranche will close. Certain of the conditions require action by Kakaopay, including providing information related to Kakaopay (and its affiliates) required to obtain FINRA and CFIUS approval.

Since the closing of the First Tranche, Korean authorities have taken action against Kakaopay, its parent company, Kakao Corp., and their affiliates. In addition, Kakao Corp., recently announced that it will establish an independent compliance committee for Kakao Corp. and its subsidiaries to address what it described as the current crisis at Kakao Corp. and its subsidiaries. Siebert believes these events have had a material adverse effect on both Kakaopay and its ability to perform its obligations under the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated therein. Accordingly, on November 11, 2023, Siebert delivered a notice to Kakaopay stating that a material adverse effect had occurred with respect to Kakaopay and that, as a result, Siebert’s conditions to closing will not be satisfied. The notice also specified that Kakaopay has indicated that it has no intention of satisfying the conditions precedent to Siebert preparing the proxy statement contemplated by the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement. Siebert is considering its rights and obligations under the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement, including evaluating whether and under what circumstances the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement might be terminated, and has reserved all of its rights and remedies, including Siebert’s right to assert that Kakaopay has materially breached a number of covenants in the Second Tranche Stock Purchase Agreement. On November 12, 2023, Kakaopay delivered a letter in response to the notice that expressed Kakaopay’s disagreement with the statements in the notice. As a result of the foregoing, Siebert has incurred and may incur additional legal expenses evaluating these matters, the amount of which is uncertain as of the date hereof.

Refer to Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation – Transaction with Kakaopay above; and Siebert’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 3, 2023, incorporated herein by reference, for further detail.
