NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (PARENT COMPANY)
NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed financial statements for B. Riley Financial, Inc. (the “Parent Company”) summarize the results of operations and cash flows of the Parent Company for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 and the financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
The condensed financial statements of the Parent Company have been prepared in accordance with Rule 12-04, Schedule I of Regulation S-X, as the restricted net assets of the subsidiaries of the Parent Company (as defined in Rule 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X) exceed 25% of the consolidated net assets of the Company. The ability of the Parent Company's operating subsidiaries to pay dividends may be restricted due to the terms of the Nomura Credit Agreement.
In these statements, the Parent Company's investment in subsidiaries is stated at cost plus equity in undistributed earnings of subsidiaries since the date the Parent Company began consolidating them. The Parent Company's share of net income of its unconsolidated subsidiaries is included in consolidated income using the equity method. The Parent Company financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of B. Riley Financial and subsidiaries for the corresponding years.
